PREPARE WITH PURPOSE

Our HYROX Simulation returns to UHF on Sunday 27th September from 7:30am onwards.

FULL OR HALF SIMULATION
SOLO OR DOUBLES

Whether you’re preparing for your next HYROX, building towards your first or simply want to put your fitness to the test, this is an opportunity to experience the demands of race day in a coached environment.

Because a good simulation should be more than setting up the stations and starting a clock.

Experience matters.

Between Chris & Shane, there’s in excess of 100+ hybrid races worth of experience, competing and coaching across HYROX and the wider hybrid racing space.

Chris is a 2× HYROX World Championship athlete.

Shane is a HYROX Performance Coach with extensive hybrid racing experience.

That knowledge comes onto the floor with you.

Pacing. Standards. Transitions. Strategy.

Knowing when to push and when to hold something back.

The aim isn’t just to get you through a simulation.

It’s to make you better prepared for the real thing.

📍 UHF, Ripley
📅 Sunday 27th September
⏰ From 7:30am onwards
Full or Half Sim
Solo or Doubles
Members & non-members welcome

Booking links are live or drop Chris or Shane a message to get booked in.

UHF | Elements Run Club 🏃‍♂️☕️

Another great morning with a great group of people.

When we started this, I wanted it to be about more than just getting together for a run.

It’s the conversations along the way.

Meeting people you might not normally meet.

Running alongside someone new.

Then grabbing a coffee afterwards and actually taking the time to connect.

For some, 5K is comfortable.

For others, it’s a real challenge.

That doesn’t matter, we start together, we look after each other and we finish together.

That’s what I want this run club to be.

A massive thank you to Elements for hosting us again and giving everyone somewhere to sit, have a coffee and carry on the conversations afterwards.

Really appreciate everyone who came along this yesterday.

2 runs in and already starting to feel like something pretty special.

See you at the next one 🤝

Some brilliant performances, Podiums, PBs, BIG improvements and plenty of hard work paying off.

But the thing that’s stood out to me most this weekend hasn’t necessarily been the times….

It’s been the intent.

The drive, the want, the willingness to push when it gets uncomfortable.

The ability to get locked into what you’re doing and keep going.

As a coach, that’s probably the bit I’ve loved watching most.

Of course we want to get fitter, stronger and faster.

We want the PBs and better performances.

This weekend has shown just how much progress has been made.

But seeing people develop that ability to really compete with themselves

Dig in and find another level when things get hard, that’s something else.

And there’s been loads of that on show this weekend.

Very, very proud of this lot.

UHF represented brilliantly ❤️

CASE STUDY | DAN - ROAD TO MALAGA

Yesterday Dan ran 1:37 at the Great North Run, a 7-minute half marathon PB.

A really positive result within his preparation for the Malaga Marathon,

but also a useful opportunity for us to assess where his training currently stands.

When we started working towards Malaga, the first stage wasn’t simply increasing his weekly mileage or assigning training paces.

We tested.

The purpose was to establish a clearer picture of Dan as a runner, where his strengths currently sit, where his limitations are and therefore where we should place the emphasis within his training.

One of the main areas we identified was his threshold, his ability to sustain a higher percentage of his aerobic capacity for longer.

That gave us something tangible to work from.

Rather than trying to improve everything at once, threshold development became one of the priorities within his first block.

His running week has therefore been structured around a key threshold session, supported by aerobic running and increasingly marathon-specific work.

Yesterday wasn’t the end point of that process.

It was another opportunity to gather information.

The 7-minute PB is obviously a very positive outcome, but equally important is understanding how Dan produced that performance, where the effort became more difficult to sustain and what that tells us about the next stage of his preparation.

That’s the value of testing and reassessment.

A training plan shouldn’t simply be a collection of sessions or a progression of weekly mileage.

There should be a reason behind what we’re asking an athlete to do.

Assess where they are.

Identify what is limiting them.

Prioritise what needs developing.

Train it.

Then reassess.

For Dan, yesterday gave us another marker.

Now we use that information to shape the next block towards Malaga.

Well in Dan 👊

Our 5th DEKA event is coming to UHF…

And we’re doing things a little differently this time.

On Saturday 14th November, we’re bringing DEKA ATLAS to Ripley.

If you’ve done one of our DEKA events before, this is going to be a very different test.

And if you haven’t, this might actually be the one for you.

There’s no running. Instead ATLAS puts much more emphasis on strength, functional fitness and your ability to keep working through 10 different zones.

We’ll also be running 2 levels - Foundation and Peak.

Foundation gives you an accessible way to take on the challenge without needing to be the strongest or fittest person in the room.

Peak turns things up considerably, with heavier loads and a much tougher strength test for those who want it.

That’s probably what I like most about bringing ATLAS to UHF.

You can be someone who trains a couple of times a week and wants something to work towards.

Or you can be someone who loves competing and wants to see just how far you can push yourself.

There’s a challenge there for both.

What a brilliant evening at Ultimate Health & Wellness ✨

Last night we hosted our very first Sound Bath with the wonderful Vicky from Sound Oasis, and what an amazing turnout for our first one.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along, and of course to Vicky for creating such a fantastic experience.

The feedback has been amazing and we’re already looking forward to the next one.

A really special night at UHW 🤍

UHF MEMBER OF THE MONTH | STEPHEN

This month, we’re giving some well-deserved recognition to Stephen.

Stephen has achieved a tremendous amount over the last few years. What started as a weight-loss journey has developed into something much bigger and it’s been brilliant to see him now stepping into the performance side of his training.

HYROX, DEKA FIT and now a marathon in Malaga later this year, he continues to set himself new challenges and find out what he’s capable of.

What perhaps deserves just as much recognition, though is the person Stephen is within UHF.

He’s a genuinely kind gent who always has time for others. He’s supportive, encouraging and takes a real interest in the people around him. He’s become an integral part of the UHF community and represents so much of what we want the place to be about.

Even with travelling all over the world, he somehow finds a way to get his training in and usually finds a gym wherever he ends up!

He’s also shared a little of his world with us, delivering our UHF wine tasting last year something a bit different and a great evening for everyone who came along.

There’s been an incredible amount of progress already, but it feels like there’s plenty more to come.

We’re excited to see where the next part of the journey takes you, Stephen.

A thoroughly deserved Member of the Month.

What a gent. 👏

HYROX SIMULATION | 27TH SEPTEMBER

With Birmingham coming up and London later in the year, Shane and I will be running a coached HYROX Simulation at UHF on Sunday 27th September.

A full race simulation, with coaching throughout.

We’ll use the session to help you understand how to approach your race. Pacing, transitions, station efficiency, managing your effort and, importantly, what happens to your running as fatigue builds.

Because a good simulation isn’t just about finishing it or seeing how fast you can go.

It’s a chance to practise your race strategy, identify where you’re losing time and make adjustments before race day.

Between Shane’s experience as a HYROX Performance Coach and my own experience racing HYROX through to the World Championships, there’ll be plenty of coaching and support throughout the session.

If you’ve got a HYROX booked, this is a chance to put your race preparation into practice.

And if you’re considering HYROX and want to experience the demands of the event in a coached environment you’re welcome too.
