what the point of lifting...?

Many people has access to the gym, but they avoid weight training for a number of reasons...
#1 Don't know what to do... #2 Afraid of hurting myself #3 Don't want to get 'too big'

Many people have a fear of going to the gym and being watched or judge by others. They second guess whether they're doing things right, this leads to a fear of trying or sticking to what they know... Cardio and/or machines which give a simple description of the targeted areas you'll work.

Some fear injury, thoughts of the first could lead to the second. Not knowing what you're doing can lead to a fear of getting hurt if you try. Sometimes people are willing to try but stop short when the 'burning' muscle sensations start. They don't push their body enough to change in the ways they want.

The fear of putting on 'too much size' has led many people not to try weight training. The truth is it takes a heavy combination of training intensity, calorie intake, focus and commitment to increase the bodies frame for most people. Weight training is a great way to change the physical appearance of the body with greater definition, strength and all round health benefits with the correct training methods.

Weight training is about more than just lifting heavy weights, getting bigger and stronger. It's about the sense of achievement, inspiring confidence and knowing that you have more potential than you ever thought possible.

​
Whether your doing it to get strong, fit or just lose some weight, weight training has benefits beyond just physical. The ability to carry out daily tasks with ease is common,  a better mood and improved confidence in every situation. Just knowing your a bad arse and can do things you never thought possible. It's become so much more than standing on the scales to check your relationship to the earth's gravitational pull...

If you ever wanted to try weight training this is the best place to start

What happens during the programme?
  • Movement Assessment
During the first 4 sessions our coaches will assess your movement using simple bodyweight exercise. This helps us to understand your abilities and any movement restrictions. The screening helps to build your own foundation so that the coaches provide exercises that fit you not the needs of the group.
  • Get to know you!
Understanding what motivates you will help the coaches to move you forward in the fastest way possible. We'll challenge your movement but also your thinking because without a strong mindset you're less like to adhere to a challenging training programme.
  • Testing your abilities
​Following the assessment we will programme simple workouts to test your abilities. These workouts are always movement based and can be modified to your individual needs. This is also assessing your movement. As you become tired your body becomes lazy and the soon we spot this the sooner we can coach you better towards the results you deserve!
  • Learn!
We want you get results far beyond training with us! Many people have a goal, but aren't sure about how to get there. Think of it like this, you see a personal trainer who's promising you can lose x pounds in x time... Then what? Are you going to train with that trainer for the rest of your life? We help you understand the basic principles of training towards a goal. No matter how much time you have away you will know what needs to be done to get in shape.
