Not that they would, but If someone were to ever ask "what member of staff at U7 looks most like they'd be a T-Bird from the movie, Grease?"; you'd be hard pressed to pick anyone other than Mr Slick Rick himself:

Izaak Stanton ().

Hair products and lookalikes aside, Izaak is a core member of the U7 team, and a coach that everyone should know.

Having pretty much been with us since his work experience placement back when he was 16, Izaak has developed as a coach, gaining what must be thousands of coaching hours on the gym floor, and works hard to understand the people he works with to provide the support they need on their own unique training journey.

In a fast-growing industry, with a lot of cowboys out there; we genuinely believe that Izaak is one of the good ones - here is someone who works to genuinely help people improve their lifestyles.

We wont ever tell him that though, because it might make him smile, and then he might not look cool and it could ruin his image... so you'll have to find out for yourself. 😉

Things are ramping up quickly on-site, so naturally we decided to add a bit more pressure last minute… and extend the mezzanine floor.

While the rest of the site team were busy with walls, groundworks, and prepping the steel, Mat and Dave were given the crucial task of drop testing the existing mezzanine floor.

The goal this week: find out what’s safe, what floor build-up we’ll need, and to get his Birkenstocks back.

Thanks to .fitness for sending the samples over.

So… how do you think the boys did?

This summer we're developing and moving to our new home.

But that isn't where the story starts...

Over a decade ago, the story of U7 first started with Mat, and he continues the story today.

What first started as a dream, has now turned into reality, and he's learnt fast that reality can hit HARD. With deadlines approaching, pressure on the build, finances to manage, equipment to arrive on-time, our lease coming to an end, and more - we really might have taken on more than we can chew this time round.

"Under pressure" could be an understatement.

So we decided to document the chaos as it unfolds.

Join us on our mad journey this summer as we take on the huge task of rebuilding and relocating U7.

We promise it will be one wild ride.

Don't worry - this isn't a photo post saying how much our members enjoy being at U7 and that you should all join.

Oh no, this is not that post.

We're just a little worried that Hannah is enjoying the Kickboxing class on Sundays a little too much; and so this post is here to serve as a warning to you all.

Hannah has recently discovered how to kick and punch (taught from a pro - Mim Grubb) - and she looks a mix of excited, shocked, and happy. This makes us nervous.

Hannah aside - the new Kickboxing class has had a great uptake and it's so good to see everyone getting stuck into something new!

So if you fancy feeling a little bit lethal and chuffed with yourself, just like Hannah was this past Sunday, probably book yourself onto our Kickboxing class that starts at 09:00.

When it comes to Hannah though, we're genuinely unsure what she's going to do with her newly found skills, and so it's probably best for everyone to keep their distance until she calms down and hopefully chooses peace again.✌️

The GBO UK XPLOSIVE APE CLASSIC (South West) bodybuilding show took place over the weekend - and WHAT a show it was!

When Guy asked us if we wanted to be involved with sponsorship again this year, we jumped at the opportunity. This show is growing year on year, and supports the incredible group of bodybuilders we have down here in Exeter (and surrounding areas!).

Huge congratulations to everyone that took part - it's a serious achievement to dedicate yourself to the dieting and training over a long period of time, and even more of an achievement to get on stage. A special shoutout too, to our members who competed and showed the awesome results from the work that goes on daily inside U7.

Excited for next year already.

Bodybuilding in Exeter is in a good place!

We found ourselves back down at the Exmouth Beach Rugby Festival over the weekend for what was an absolute scorcher of a tournament! 🔥

Whether it's Jay losing his lungs after 20-seconds of game play, Handford chasing shadows and getting turned inside out whenever he gets near the ball, or Dave dropping everything every time he's near anything; it's no surprise that we seem to get worse at playing every year.

And you know what? Truth be told, we aren't really there for the rugby (although some of us get a bit competitive and might be).

We use this tournament as a yearly event to get the crew together, let our hair down, and just enjoy being in each others company away from the gym. This has been our 5th time now attending a Beach Rugby event, and its now a staple to our social calendar.

Thanks to everyone that came down and hung out with us throughout the day, and to the organisers - another great day was had!

Bring on next year!

🙌

It’s been 2 years since Poppy joined our team, and if we could go back in time to change the course of history…

We probably wouldn’t, to be honest.

Poppy joined us straight out of college and has grown into a key part of the team - developing her own coaching style and helping women learn how to train properly, build strength, and feel more at home in the gym.

If you haven’t met Poppy yet, you’ll get a better idea of what she’s about in this reel.

And if you’ve been thinking about starting your training but aren’t sure where to begin, you’re in safe hands with her - clear guidance, structured sessions, and a lot of fun along the way.
