Another TTG record tumbled last night. Jack Brennan pulled a massive 212.5kg deadlift! 💪🔥

Two years ago, Jack walked into The Training Ground having never trained in a gym. In the past 12 months, he’s found a passion for powerlifting, competed twice and placed in both comps.

Tonight? A 12kg PB over his best competition lift from just last month. 🤯

But what we love most about Jack is the person behind the lift. One of the loveliest guys you’ll meet, always eager to learn, listen and put advice into practice. Watching that attitude turn into progress has been a pleasure.

Huge congratulations, Jack. You’ve earned every kilo. 👏

A little more work. A little less rest. Another step forward. 💪

Week two of the block, and we’ve increased the training density slightly, asking everyone to do a little more in the time they have.

That’s how we build progress: small, planned increases that challenge you while keeping good movement at the centre.

The effort is yours. The structure and support are ours.

Keep showing up. Give yourself the chance to see what you’re capable of.

👑 Two gym records in five minutes.

Luis just walked in today and knocked out 35 pull-ups, then backed it up with 101 push-ups less than five minutes later.

Top spot on both of The Training Ground’s Push-up and Pull-up record boards 💪

You can see both attempts here.

Give Luis some love in the comments 👏

Who’s having a crack at either record next?

A massive well done to everyone currently working through our toughest 12-week block yet. 👏

The AMRAPs, Chippers, EMOMs and longer conditioning pieces have asked plenty of you; but you have continued to turn up, put in the work and build your fitness week after week.

Now, here is a little preview of what comes next. 👀

We'll begin by testing:
💥 Stabding Briad Jump
💪 D-Ball Hold

From there, we'll progressively build those qualities all the way through to Christmas.

Expect plenty of isometric strength work, athletic movemebt and training through multiple places of motion; not just forwards abf backwards.

The goal is to help your joints feel strong, keep you moving well abd have you feeling your fittest heading into Christmas.

Finish this block strongly. Theb we reset abd build again. 🌱
