THE MACHINES THAT HELPED BUILD DORIAN YATES 💪

Hammer Strength had a major impact on Dorian Yates’ physical development throughout the 1990s.

The plate-loaded, iso-lateral design allowed Dorian to train with enormous intensity while following a controlled and natural movement path. Combined with his legendary Blood & Guts approach, these machines helped him target each muscle group with precision and build the thick, dense physique that changed professional bodybuilding.

In this video, Leroy Davis explains why “The Hammer” became such an important part of their training and why its equipment was considered one of the greatest innovations of that era.

Decades later, Hammer Strength remains one of the most recognisable and respected strength-equipment brands in the world. The designs are simple, brutally effective and built to withstand serious training—which is exactly why many of the original machines are still found in the best hardcore gyms today.

Some equipment follows trends. Hammer Strength helped create a legacy.

Have you tried our Hip press from GymLeco? This Hip Press may look similar to our other leg presses, but the movement feels completely different. Instead of pushing a carriage up and down a fixed 45-degree track, the Hip Press uses Gymleco’s lever-based movement, creating a more natural pressing arc and a different resistance profile through the exercise.

The big difference is how it loads the quads. This machine is designed to maximise the connection through the front of the thighs while reducing shearing forces around the knees. The large footplate also allows you to experiment with foot positions to change how you feel the quads, glutes and posterior chain.

Why should you use it? Because your legs adapt to doing the same movements repeatedly. If you’re already hammering conventional 45° leg presses, squats and hacks, the Hip Press gives you a different movement path, resistance curve and stimulus without needing to load your spine with a barbell.

It’s not necessarily better than a 45° leg press — it’s different, and that’s exactly why it deserves a place in our legendary leg room 💯

💥 UFB DEADLIFT PARTY! 💥

Our Deadlift Party started off with a bang! 🔥

There was some serious energy, big lifts and great attempts throughout the session. No PBs were broken this time, but nights like this are about much more than numbers on the bar.

It’s about bringing members together, supporting each other, creating an atmosphere and building the UFB community. 💪

Seeing members cheering each other on, giving encouragement and getting involved is exactly what these events are all about.

Great energy. Great atmosphere. Great people.

This is what makes UFB more than just a place to train — it’s a community. ❤️

Plenty more events to come… and those PBs are definitely going down next time! 👊🔥

🎥 Ask the Bossman : What’s your greatest achievement with UFB?

Without a doubt, it’s the overall success of the gym over the past 13 years.

We’ve never been a business that’s happy to stand still. Every year we continue to invest in better equipment, improve the facilities, and make UFB an even better place for our members to train.

Today, the gym is busier than it’s ever been, our membership is at an all time high but it genuinely feels like we’re only just getting started.💪🏽

Seeing our members enjoy training here, achieve their goals, make lifelong friendships, and call UFB their second home is what makes all the hard work worthwhile.🫶🏻

The success of UFB isn’t measured just by the number of members through the door—it’s measured by the incredible community we’ve built together.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of the journey so far. The best is still to come. 💙💯

When local gym closed its doors, he needed to find a new place to train. Over a year later, he’s become a valued part of the UFB family.🫶🏻

Not only has Junaid made tremendous progress in the gym hitting a PB in his deadlift but he’s also built something even more valuable… lifelong friendships.

At Ultimate Fitness Birmingham, we believe a great gym is about far more than just equipment. It’s about the people, the atmosphere, the support and the community that makes you want to come back every day.

We’re constantly investing, improving and giving back to our members because that’s what a real gym should do.

Thank you, Junaid, for being such a fantastic member of the UFB community. We appreciate your support and we’re proud to be part of your fitness journey. 💪❤️

It’s International Chest Day and who doesn't love chest days!

So today we’re highlighting one of the most popular chest machines at UFB… the Hammer Strength Incline Chest Press.

Originally from the first UFB, this machine is a favourite for a reason. The incline angle targets the upper chest while also hitting the front delts and triceps, helping you build a fuller, more balanced chest.

The independent iso-lateral arms allow each side to work on its own, helping correct strength imbalances and giving you a more natural pressing movement. It also provides excellent stability, allowing you to focus on driving through the chest without worrying about balancing a barbell.

Whether you’re looking to increase strength, add muscle or simply get a better chest pump, this machine deserves a place in your chest workout.
