Next up in our introductions… meet Paige 🧡

Paige is a qualified Sports Therapist and Personal Trainer with a background in Judo and Weightlifting, and she’ll be joining The Foundry as our resident Sports Therapist, working from the treatment room.

With a strong background in sport, strength and performance, Paige has experience working with athletes, football teams and sports clubs, as well as helping everyday gym goers with injuries, niggles and recovery.

Her treatments include sports massage, injury assessment, rehabilitation and recovery, with a focus on helping you move better, feel better and get back to doing what you love — whether that’s competing, training or simply feeling your best in the gym.

We’re really excited to welcome Paige to The Foundry and to have the treatment room up and running 🧡

To get booked in with Paige, head over to Paige gilfillan and drop her a message.

Next up in our Introducing Our Instructors series… meet Emma 🧡

Chatty, approachable and never short of a conversation, Emma is a qualified Gym Instructor, mum of three and is currently working towards her Personal Training qualification.

Her own fitness journey has played a huge part in shaping the way she approaches training. After having her children, Emma went through a big transformation of her own and found her way back to consistent strength training.

She’s passionate about getting stronger, lifting heavy, nutrition and finding a sustainable approach to fitness — one that fits around real life rather than taking it over.

Emma truly believes that training is for everyone, no matter where you’re starting from, and that fitness should leave you feeling stronger, more confident and better in yourself, without feeling like you need to completely rearrange your life to make it work.

Whether you’re brand new to exercise or already love training, Emma’s goal is to make you feel welcome, work hard and have a good time while you’re doing it.

And with Emma, there’s a pretty good chance you’ll leave with a new friend too! 🧡

You can catch Emma coaching Built @ The Foundry every Monday at 5:30pm.

Expect good energy, proper strength work and a class that’s suitable whether you’re just getting started or already love lifting.

Come and experience Built @ The Foundry with Emma 💪🏼

Introducing our Class Instructors at The Foundry 🧡

Meet Fiona 👋🏼

Bubbly, high-energy and endlessly passionate about fitness, Fiona is a qualified Personal Trainer with a background working with children, and helping people is genuinely what drives her.

Strength training changed Fiona’s life, mentally as much as physically, and it’s where her real passion lies. She’s also a big believer in HIIT-style training because your heart and lungs deserve to be trained just as much as the rest of your body.

You can catch Fiona coaching:

🔥 The Furnace, Tuesday at 7am
🏋🏼 Built @ The Foundry, Thursday at 6am

Both classes are part of our regular class timetable and included with class membership 🧡

Fiona absolutely loves the buzz and energy of coaching a packed class at The Foundry, and if you’ve trained with her before, you’ll know exactly what we mean 😅🔥

Whether you’re looking to build strength, improve your fitness and stamina, or simply get a brilliant workout surrounded by good people, there’s a place for you.

Come and experience a Fiona class for yourself 🧡

It’s been a crazy few days at The Foundry… and we’re absolutely loving it 🌍💪

With Natural Strongman’s World’s Strongest (Natural Strongman 🌍 ) taking place this weekend, we’ve had strongmen and strongwomen travelling from all over the world through our doors: competitors, coaches and spectators all getting their sessions in ahead of the big weekend.

It’s pretty surreal seeing The Foundry packed with athletes from across the globe and getting to be a small part of what is going to be an incredible weekend for the sport.

And of course we had to grab a photo of some of Team Foundry with American strongman Vince Wilkinson 🇺🇸

Vince is an internationally competitive strongman athlete, part of the U.S. Army Warrior Fitness Team and someone who has built a massive following within the strength and fitness world.

This is exactly the kind of thing we love about owning The Foundry. Strength sports bring people together, and this week our wee gym in Paisley has genuinely felt like an international strongman training hub. 😂

And we’re not finished yet…

Good luck to everyone competing at World’s Strongest this weekend. We can’t wait to watch! 🌍🏆

📚 SCHOOLS ARE BACK… NOW IT’S YOUR TURN, MAMA 🧡

The summer holidays are (almost!) over, routines are coming back, and if you’ve spent the last few weeks keeping everyone else entertained, fed and vaguely on schedule… this is your reminder to make a little space for you too.

Strong Mamas Club has spaces available. 💪🏼

Our small-group training sessions are designed for mums who want to feel stronger, fitter and more confident without the pressure or intimidation that can sometimes come with getting back into training.

👶 Babies are welcome
🏋🏼‍♀️ Training adapted to you and your ability
🤝 Supportive, friendly small group
🥗 Nutrition guidance
📲 Weekly check-ins & WhatsApp support
🧡 A community of mums doing it alongside you

You don’t need to be “fit enough” to start. You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need to turn up — we’ll help with the rest.

Monday, Wednesday & Friday | 9.30am
📍 The Foundry, Paisley

With the schools going back, this could be the perfect time to get your routine back too.

Drop us a message with “MAMA” and we’ll send you all the details 🧡

WHAT HAPPENED TO TRAINING WITH BARBELLS & DUMBBELLS? 🏋️‍♀️

There seems to be a machine for absolutely everything these days.

And don’t get us wrong — we love machines. They’re brilliant tools. They can help you target specific muscles, train around injuries, add volume and give you loads of different options.

But somewhere along the way, have we started forgetting about the basics?

A barbell.
A pair of dumbbells.
A bench.
A rack.

Squat. Hinge. Press. Row. Carry.

The stuff that built strong people long before there was a machine for every possible movement.

Barbells and dumbbells make you control the weight, stabilise it, coordinate your whole body and actually learn how to move under load.

They’re not the flashy option.

They’re not always the easiest option.

And they definitely don’t make for the most complicated-looking Instagram workout. 😂

But they work.

Machines absolutely have their place — and we have plenty of them at The Foundry.

But they should be another tool in the toolbox, not something that makes us forget how valuable simple strength training is.

Barbells and dumbbells are still the bread and butter.

Sometimes you don’t need a new exercise.

You just need to get really bloody good at the basics. 🧡

The Foundry has always been about more than just a gym. 🧡

We love strength. We love training. We love seeing people achieve things they never thought they were capable of.

But more than anything, we love what being part of a gym like The Foundry can give someone outside of the physical results.

Confidence. Routine. Purpose. Community. Somewhere to belong. An outlet when life feels heavy.

And we want more people to experience that.

We’ve been working quietly behind the scenes on something that we hope will allow The Foundry to give back to our community in a much bigger way.

We want to create opportunities for young people to experience training, build confidence and have positive role models around them.

To create a space for women to learn about their bodies, become stronger and feel supported through different stages of life, including menopause.

To give older people more opportunities to experience strength and movement, helping them maintain mobility, independence and confidence as they get older.

To help people with their mental wellbeing discover the outlet, routine and sense of purpose that so many of us have found through training.

And to support those involved in strength sports — powerlifting, strongman, bodybuilding and beyond — because we know that for so many, these sports are about far more than lifting weights.

There are people who walk through our doors every day for whom training is their escape, their routine, their social connection or simply the hour of the day where everything else goes quiet.

We want to take everything that is special about The Foundry and find ways of sharing it with more people in our community.

Because strength isn’t just about what you can lift.

It’s confidence. Independence. Resilience. Connection. Belonging.

There’s a lot happening behind the scenes and we’re not quite ready to tell you everything yet.

But this one means a lot to us.

The Foundry was built to make people stronger. Now we want to see just how much further we can take that. 🧡

More soon.
