plan your training, gym routines, hiit, circuits and track workouts. Your fitness is a choice, you choose to take part or not

I've always loved the fitness industry, taking in all aspects of it like a sponge. So if i get to share that knowledge with others, well thats what All PTs should want. A client so impressed with their new found confidence that they spread the word of your service. Thats success...

8 ladies. One session. Absolutely NO hiding! 😂💪

Tonight’s bootcamp was bloody brilliant.

They turned up, got stuck in and proceeded to question every life choice that brought them there… 😂

Hard work? Yep.
Sweat? Plenty.
Laughing? Obviously.
Complaining? Just enough to keep it interesting. 😂

But they ALL kept moving, kept pushing and kept working right until the end.

And that’s what I love about these sessions. You come along, get your arse kicked a little bit, have a laugh, make some new mates and leave feeling bloody good about yourself.

Eight ladies tonight and every single one smashed it. 👏🔥

Same time next week?

You know where we are… if your legs have recovered. 😂💪

Two ladies. One session. ZERO mercy. 😂💪🏽

You lot got through a serious amount of work this evening, and by the end the legs were shaking like they’d just received a personal eviction notice. 😂🦵🏽

Hard work ✅
Good movement ✅
Legs absolutely cooked ✅
Complaining… probably tomorrow. 😂

You trained hard, you grafted, and you got the job DONE.

Well done, ladies. 👏🏽🔥

You’re welcome. 😏

🔥 BARBELL ROLLING SQUAT 🔥

Looks a bit weird.

Feels even weirder.

But bloody hell, does it work. 😂

So why am I doing squats against a wall like I’ve forgotten how legs work? 👇🏾Well i had a friend do it and thought let’s see.

🦵🏾 QUADS GET HAMMERED
Heels elevated + plenty of knee travel = hello, quads. 👋🏾

🧱 THE WALL HAS YOUR BACK
Literally. 😂
It gives you support and takes some of the balance battle out of the equation.

🎯 LESS WORRY ABOUT BALANCE
You can concentrate on actually squatting instead of spending half the rep trying not to fall over.

🔥 BIG KNEE TRAVEL
More knee flexion, more quad work, more reasons to question your life choices.

🏋🏾‍♂️ POOR MAN’S HACK SQUAT
No fancy machine.
No £100k gym setup.

Just a bar, some plates, a wall and questionable decision-making. 😂

💪🏾 AND THAT’S THE POINT…

Strength training isn’t always:

“HOW MUCH CAN YOU LIFT?”

Sometimes it’s:

“HOW MANY WAYS CAN I MAKE THIS MUSCLE WORK?”

Different exercise.
Different stimulus.
Different way of getting stronger.

WAYS & MEANS.

Because I’ve heard people say “just stick to the basics”.

Yes but the smith machine was taken!! And as long as the works done I don’t care….

That’s good Movement. 🔥

Absolute pleasure training these lot this morning! 💪🏾

We got A LOT done in just 40 minutes. Proper work, good energy, no messing about.

And honestly, one of my favourite things about these early sessions is the setting.

Living in Southend-on-Sea, I get to train people right by the Thames. It’s not the sea… but it is Southend-on-Sea! 😂🌊

Early morning, bright sky, fresh air, water beside you… it just hits different.

The work they were putting in didn’t even feel like work. They were grafting, I was standing there enjoying the Seafront! 😂

Big well done to you lot this morning. You turned up, worked hard and got it done.

40 minutes. Job done. 👊🏾🔥

🔥 BOOTCAMP TONIGHT WAS A MOVIE! 🔥

Seven ladies turned up… and absolutely SMASHED IT! 💪🏽🔥

But tonight wasn’t just about the workout. It was about the vibes, the laughs, the effort and the energy!

Some of you had never even met each other before tonight, but within minutes you were training together, encouraging each other, laughing together and just GETTING ON WITH IT! 🙌🏽

Everyone worked hard. Everyone got involved. Everyone gelled.

And THAT is exactly what Functional Movement Bootcamp is about. ❤️‍🔥

No egos. No judgement. Just good people, hard work and a group of ladies pushing each other to be better.

Tonight was a SUCCESS! ✅

And honestly, that success was down to YOU LOT.

Well done ladies, you absolutely smashed it! 👏🏽🔥

Same energy next time… 👀💪🏽

WHO’s COMING?

🔥 LEG DAY. AND BLOODY HELL, THAT FELT GOOD. 😂

I’m not training for a marathon. I’m training for sprints, acceleration, power and speed. 💨

So today wasn’t about chucking stupidly heavy weights around.

It was about moving properly.

Good positions.
Good control.
Explosive movement.
Sprinter starts. 💥

And honestly? Brilliant session.

Sometimes you don’t need more weight.

You just need to move better.

And today, I bloody did. 👊🔥

Also shout out to the people that make the gym better .0 .crossfit

There’s not much I can say about Nik… apart from the fact that she’s an absolute machine! 🔥💪

She turns up, puts in MAD effort and gets stuck into whatever training I throw at her. No fuss, no excuses, just graft! 😤

She wants to get stronger. She wants to get fitter. So what does she do?

SHE SHOWS UP! 👊

That’s the bit that makes the difference. Consistency, effort and being willing to push yourself when it gets uncomfortable.

And Nik definitely brings all three! 💥

Keep smashing it, Nik! You’re putting the work in, and it’s showing! 🔥
