🌟 SEPTEMBER MEMBERS OF THE MONTH 🌟

This month we’re celebrating two brilliant ladies for two very different reasons because at FBL, it’s never just about what you do inside the gym. 🖤💗

🏅 MAGS (left)

Mags joined us in January and has already clocked up an incredible 130 sessions! 😳👏

A 7am regular, she turns up, puts the effort in and somehow still manages to have a kind word to say about us afterwards… despite us regularly spending 45 minutes giving her very good reasons not to. 🙄😜😂

She is consistent, determined and always brings a smile and 130 sessions in just nine months says everything about her commitment.

🏅 FRANKIE (right)

Frankie has been part of FBL since December 2022 and is one of our 6am crew. 🥱💪

But this month, her recognition comes from something she’s achieved outside the gym.

Frankie recently performed in a Burlesque show, something that takes an enormous amount of confidence, courage and guts to get up on stage and do. 🔥👏

And what we particularly loved was hearing how her FBL training helped give her confidence in her strength and ability to hold those poses during the show.

THAT is exactly what we mean when we say .

We train to get stronger, fitter and healthier but sometimes that strength shows up somewhere completely unexpected.

It might help you run an event, climb a mountain, play with your kids, take on a new hobby… or confidently hold a pose on a Burlesque stage! 😜🔥

We celebrate the wins inside AND outside the gym, because ultimately we want our ladies to use what they build at FBL to go out and do more of the things that make them feel bloody brilliant.

Huge congratulations to our September Members of the Month, Mags & Frankie! 🥰🏅💗

Very well deserved, ladies! 👏👏👏

This week I’ve done two things completely out of my comfort zone… and I think I needed it more than I realised. ❤️

I tried adult gymnastics. By myself. 🤸‍♀️

And I did a two-hour lifting session at CrossFit_WDN with two of my members. 🏋️‍♀️

When I bought FBL four years ago, somewhere along the way I lost my own “thing”.

FBL is a huge part of me and I love what we’ve built, but it also became my work, my responsibility, the place where I’m thinking about everyone else.

And I’d lost sight of having something that was just for me.

Walking into gymnastics was the hardest.

I’d never done it as a child, I’m stiff as a board 😂 and I had no idea what to expect.

I actually sat in the car for five minutes trying not to talk myself out of going in.

And it suddenly hit me…

This must be how some of our ladies feel when they walk into FBL for the first time.

The unknown. Wondering who’ll be there. Worrying you won’t know what you’re doing. Wanting to go in, but also wanting to drive home. ❤️

I’m SO pleased I went.

I discovered I have a few fears to conquer — particularly my fear of falling 🙈 — but I also managed a roly poly for the first time since I was a child!

Funny how something so simple can suddenly feel completely beyond your capability as an adult.

The lifting felt easier because I had two friends with me, but I still felt like the newbie. Different environment, different coaching, learning new ways of moving equipment we actually have at FBL.

And I loved it. ❤️

So I’ll be going back to both.

I don’t know if either will become my new “thing”.

Maybe, for now, my thing is simply trying things. Being a beginner. Feeling uncomfortable. And finding something that is mine again. 🥰

So tell me… what have you done recently that pushed you outside your comfort zone?

And if you’ve got any ideas for something else I should try, throw them my way — I’m clearly on a bit of a mission now 😂👇❤️

💗 NATIONAL FITNESS DAY 2026 💗

This year’s National Fitness Day theme is POWERED BY YOU ⚡️💪

And honestly… we couldn’t think of a better theme for FBL.

Because this place is powered by YOU.

✨ The woman who walks through the door even when she really couldn’t be bothered.

✨ The woman who adds a little more weight because she’s realised she’s stronger than she thought.

✨ The woman who’s starting again for the tenth time — but still starting.

✨ The woman who cheers someone else on, saves them a space, makes them laugh and helps turn a workout into the best 45 minutes of their day.

✨ The woman who came for the fitness… and found a whole community along the way. 🥰

Our coaches might plan the sessions and shout the instructions 😜 but YOU are what gives FBL its energy, its atmosphere and its heart.

Different ages. Different abilities. Different reasons for being here.

But every single one of you contributes to what makes this place so special. 💗

So today, on National Fitness Day, celebrate what your body can do, how far you’ve come and the people around you who make the journey that little bit more fun.

⚡️ FBL Daventry — Powered By You. ⚡️

I’m a few days late posting this one 🙈 but on Friday evening we were back at the Ashby St Ledgers Bale Push for our third year running and this time we entered another FIVE FBL teams! 🩷💪

It was such a brilliant evening! 🥰

The ladies pushed HARD 💪, worked together 🤝, cheered each other on 📣 and, as always, had plenty of laughs along the way! 😂🩷

A huge shout-out has to go to Daniella 👏🥰 who has only just started her 28 Day Programme with us and still jumped straight in and got involved! Now THAT is embracing the FBL spirit! 💕💪

This is exactly what I love about our little community.

Yes, we come together to exercise and get fitter… but it’s also about friendships, fun, trying new things, getting involved and making memories together. 🩷

Community ✅
Fitness ✅
Fun ✅
Socials ✅
A little bit of madness ✅😂

All wrapped up in one gym. 🥰

🏅💗 AUGUST MEMBERS OF THE MONTH 💗🏅

A huge congratulations to Nicki & Dee, our August Members of the Month! 🥰👏

💗 Nicki may be one of our fabulous coaches, but she was a member first and she’s never stopped being one! She still makes time to attend sessions regularly for herself, works hard, gets stuck in with everything we do and is always there supporting and encouraging the other ladies, whether she’s wearing her coaching hat or not. 🙌💪

She’s a brilliant example of what FBL is all about, being part of the team, leading by example and genuinely wanting to see the women around her do well. 💗✨

💗 Dee was an absolute stand-out choice this month too! She consistently shows up for her three sessions every week, works incredibly hard and takes every bit of coaching and advice on board. 💪🔥

That willingness to listen, learn and keep pushing herself is showing in her training, and her consistency certainly hasn’t gone unnoticed! 👏🥰

Two very deserving ladies who get on with it, work hard and contribute so much to our FBL community in their own ways. 💕🏅

Well done Nicki & Dee! Enjoy those medals! 🥳👏💗

It’s international dog 🐕🐶 day today so I’m sharing a favourite photo of my beloved beagle Iggy who passed over the rainbow 🌈 bridge on 30/12/23 at the great age of 14.5.

He was my husband and my wedding gift to each other and the first pet I’d ever owned and experienced profound loss for. 💔

I’ll never forget the day he left us… I’d taught that Saturday morning and at the end of the warmup I broke down in tears. Nobody knew what was taking place later that day and in true FBL fashion, the love and concern for me was so comforting. ♥️

Feel free to share a pic below 👇 of your beloved pooches, past and present.

She almost didn't come back after week one.

Not because she couldn't do it, because doubt got loud.

Am I too unfit for this?

Will I keep it up?

'What if everyone else is fitter than me?

She came back anyway. Then she came back the week after that. And the week after that.

Fast forward, and she's not the same woman who nervously walked through the door that first week.

She's stronger. She's more confident. She's the one now telling the next new starter, 'You've got this.'

This is what we mean when we say a community that celebrates you.

Not just the milestones, the moments in between too.

The week you nearly gave up and didn't.
The session you dragged yourself to when you really didn't want to.
The version of you that's quietly, consistently, becoming her strongest self.

If that sounds like your story (or the one you want to start writing), we"d love to meet you.
Comment Below AUGUST and we will be in touch

🌟🩷 MEMBERS OF THE MONTH 🩷🌟

This month we’re celebrating two lovely ladies, Cherene on the left and Simone on the right! 🥰👏

They joined us just a month apart and, very fittingly, have both recently reached the same milestone too earning their 50 Sessions Keyring! 🔑💪🎉

Cherene and Simone are both naturally quite members who come in, get on with their sessions and consistently put the work in. But quiet certainly doesn’t mean unnoticed. 🩷

We’ve seen so much improvement in both ladies since they joined. Their form and technique have developed, they’re getting stronger and more confident in their movements, and they really listen to the coaching and put it into practice. 💪🙌

Sometimes progress happens gradually, session by session, and then you look back and realise just how far someone has come. That’s exactly what we’ve seen with these two. 🥰

So this month we wanted to give Cherene and Simone a little moment in the spotlight and recognise everything they’ve been quietly achieving. 🌟

Congratulations ladies!! Very well deserved! 🩷👏🥳

Four years ago today, I unlocked the doors to FBL Daventry as its new owner. 💖

I honestly don’t think I could ever have imagined what it would become.

Yes, we’ve helped hundreds of ladies become fitter, stronger and healthier… but what fills my heart the most is the community we’ve built together. Friendships have been made, confidence has grown, support has been there through life’s ups and downs, and so many women have realised they’re capable of far more than they ever believed. 🥹💕

Despite the 5am alarms every day this week to get ready for coaching, I was still up at 5am this morning… but this time it was to bake. 🇵🇹🥮 It felt like the perfect way to celebrate our anniversary, with homemade Portuguese custard tarts waiting for the ladies after they’d worked hard in their sessions.

We celebrated with a “Higher or Lower” workout… and let’s just say the ladies were pretty good at guessing! 😂 Every time they got it right, I had to do either 5 burpees or 5 walkouts. Across the two sessions I somehow clocked up 170 in total! 😳🤣 Safe to say I was absolutely knackered by the end!

Over the last four years there have been so many memorable moments… dancing around the gym when a good song comes on, celebrating milestones big and small, watching ladies do things they never thought possible, and seeing complete strangers become genuine friends. That’s what makes FBL so special. ❤️

To every single member who’s walked through our doors, to my incredible coaching team, and to everyone who’s supported me over these last four years… thank you. You’ve trusted me, supported this little business, embraced everything we’ve created together and helped make FBL into the amazing community it is today.

Here’s to many more years of early mornings, encouraging one another, celebrating every win, dancing through workouts and proving that fitness can be fun. 💗

My heart is very full today. 🥰

Two weeks away in Portugal has been exactly what I needed. ☀️🇵🇹💛

No rushing around. No juggling businesses. No school runs. Just time to rest, recharge and reconnect with myself. ❤️

One thing I promised myself before I came away was that I’d listen to what I needed each day… and every morning, that has meant getting out for some movement. 🚶‍♀️💪

This morning my cousin and I headed out for a walk, and somewhere along the way I decided to throw in a plank! 😂 Why not?!

Exercise isn’t a punishment for me. It isn’t about “earning” my time on the beach or working off yesterday’s ice cream. 🍦🏖️

It’s self-care.

It clears my mind, lifts my mood, reminds me what my body is capable of and sets me up for the rest of the day. ❤️

After that? I’ll happily spend the day lying on the beach, swimming in the sea and completely switching off. 🌊☀️😌

Movement and rest aren’t opposites… they’re both part of looking after yourself. Sometimes the healthiest thing you can do is move your body. Sometimes it’s to lie in the sunshine with a good book. The magic is knowing which one you need that day. 🥰

I hope wherever you are, you find a little time to do something that fills your cup today. 💕

Bela 🥰

💕☀️🏖️💪
