Today UP crew took on the Brecon Horse Shoe hike. 19km 5 decent peaks including Corn Du, Pen Y Fan, Cribyn and Fan Y big and Cran Fan Dudu.

Just want to say a massive well done to
everyone who came today. It was a cracker of a hike and at 19km, with all those cheeky accents and equally tricky descents it is definitely worth being proud of that achievement.

We definitely had a bonus with the weather which made for spectacular views!

We always try and do things as a gym to aim for and help people see what they are capable of. Hiking is a huge part of that for us.

Hiking brings out all emotions and feelings. Random chats with people you don’t always get that time with (baby wipes aside was one today 😂) you have laughter, banter, times of doubt, time to just chill in silence with your own thoughts. All are good for the soul and clearing your head from the normality of life (maybe even stresses). When you look up at a hill, maybe the 3rd or 4th peak and ask the question “can i do this?” And you go and do it… that’s where character and resilience is built. It May not be the most enjoyable part at the time but i guarantee the next day it will be a highlight.
“Never again” on the hills becomes tomorrow’s achievements and bragging to friends and family.

Our next venture is the National 3 Peaks in June… bring it on 💪🏽

Meet Madison…
Madison started her personal trainer apprenticeship last November with us. Fast forward 15 months and she is now a fully qualified Level 3 PT. She passed her final exams last week, not just passed them but passed with DISTINCTION! 🙌

Maddy hasn’t just gained qualifications, she has become a very confident young lady in the process. The skills and qualifications are great, but she has learned so much more in terms of life skills… working in an “adult” environment, customer-facing, problem solving, and being friendly and approachable will set Maddy on whatever path she wants to do.

With more time and experience, we have a fantastic young coach that will become awesome and absolutely excel in the fitness industry.

Huge shout out to the rest of the UP coaches, especially Tanya and Emma, who have helped and nurtured Maddy. Plus the fantastic members who she sees daily for your support in her training. You have all massively helped Maddy in these early stages of her career and made her into this confident young lady.

Lastly… Madison is also my daughter, so I’m not just proud as a gym owner but unbelievably proud as her father. To be able to share a passion and pass it on is what every parent aspires to.

Well done Madison from all of us at Team Unleashed 🫶

UP Crew defo had that Friday feeling today! 🙌🏼❤️

What an amazing atmosphere this morning on both sessions. When sessions are like this it doesn’t feel like work. It feels like training with a group of friends and having a good time. (Obviously with some serious work when it’s needed).

I often find it hard to explain the difference between us and a normal gym. But when our members hang around after sessions chatting about food, going out or whatever is happening at the weekend… and everyone completely buzzing and happy. I wish I could just capture those moments and when the question comes up, just show them and say “THIS”.

Well done Good Friday Crew! Have an awesome Easter everyone and thanks for sending me into the weekend 🕺😄❤️

Gym After Dark Vol.02
Your new night out (no alcohol, no hangover)

Our first Gym After Dark sold out and the energy in the room was unreal.

Lights down.
Music up.
Laser lights cutting through the gym.
A DJ set running the whole session.
Glow sticks everywhere.

And a full room of people moving, sweating and laughing their way through a workout that felt more like a fun night out than a gym session.

So we’re bringing it back.

🔥 GYM AFTER DARK – VOL.02 🔥

It’s a 90-minute club style training experience designed to make training feel like a night out… without the alcohol or the hangover.

• Live DJ throughout the session by Simeone Riley
• House, Dance and DnB soundtrack

This session is not about staring at the clock or counting reps.

It’s about moving, sweating and enjoying the energy of the room.

How many days have you been alive?

I’m 17,288 days in.

People love saying “I’ll start Monday.”
But Monday is just another day on the calendar.

Your number keeps going up whether you take action or not.

So the real question is…

What are you hanging around for… getting older?

Start today.

“Ain’t nobody… loves me better…”

You shouldn’t feel like you have to go to the gym.
You should want to.

If training feels like a chore…
If you’re dragging yourself there…
If you’re not seeing results…

It’s not you.

It’s the environment.

Most gyms sell access.
Swipe in. Headphones on. No one speaks.
In. Out. Repeat.

At Unleashed Performance, it’s different.

Programmes built for real progress.
Coaching that moves you forward.
Energy in the room.
People who know your name.

Not a soulless 24hr gym.

Gym After Dark shows the vibe.
But this is how we train all year round.

If you want results from your effort
and to actually enjoy turning up…

Book your intro.
Let’s go. 💪🏽

Strong. Not skinny.

More and more people – especially women – are asking us about strength training. And that matters, because skinny is no longer the goal.

Skinny is often praised as “healthy.” But skinny doesn’t tell you how strong your bones are. It doesn’t tell you how resilient your muscles are. And it doesn’t tell you how well your body will support you as you age.

Chasing skinny often comes with trade-offs we don’t talk about enough: undereating, low energy, disrupted hormones, injuries, and a fragile relationship with food and exercise.

You can look “fine” on the outside… while feeling exhausted, weak, or constantly sore on the inside.

Strength offers something different.

When you’re younger, building strength:
💥 Supports healthy hormones
💥 Improves metabolism & body composition
💥 Builds confidence & capability
💥 Creates habits that protect your future body

As you age, that strength becomes even more valuable:
💪 Preserves muscle & bone density
💪 Reduces risk of falls & fractures
💪 Supports independence & long-term health
💪 Keeps movement easier and pain-free

Skinny is about appearance in the short term.
Strength is about function for life.

You don’t need to shrink your body to be healthy or worthy. You need to fuel it, challenge it, and move it.

Strong isn’t about extremes — it’s about building a body that works for you now and keeps working for you later.

Chase strong. 💪🏽
