Come and see what a session actually looks like.

AJ takes you through it: the new gym downstairs, the warm up with Erin, PVC bars for the shoulders, then power cleans, power jerks and front squats. And a lesson in asking a small child for her full government name.

Every session is coached start to finish. Nobody is thrown in at the deep end, and nobody is watching you.

Watch to the end. She gets under the bar, stands it up, and then tells him it was her first session. That is the bit we do this for.

The Kings Road, Southwick. Message us and we will find you a session.

Adult membership, and what it actually costs.

SASS is our Strong Ass Strength Squad. Strongman inspired, aimed at every level of fitness, and genuinely built for people who have never picked up a weight before.

Nobody is watching you, because everybody in the room started somewhere.

2 sessions a week, Β£55 a month
3 sessions a week, Β£75 a month, and that one includes the training app and your own written programme

Monday and Wednesday at 6.30pm, Saturday at 8.30am.

No joining fee. The monthly price is the whole price. 30 days notice if you want to stop.

We have added a new class, and it is for the younger ones.

Kids Fitness is under 12s, Monday and Wednesday, 4 to 5pm. It is games, circuits and running about, with other kids their own age and our coaches running it.

There is nothing to be picked for, no team to make and no experience needed. They turn up and they join in. Some of them have never set foot in a gym before and that is exactly who it is for.

Monday and Wednesday, 4 to 5pm, at The Kings Road in Southwick.

Memberships start at Β£28 a month and the same plans cover juniors. Message us and we will get your child on the list for Monday.

We're not a gym chain. We're a community interest company.
No rows of machines with nobody to show you how to use them. No staff who never learn your name. No profit leaving the city.

Every session here is coached. We know every member. And every pound stays in Southwick: in the equipment, the coaching, and the free places we give to young people who'd never otherwise get them.

That's the whole point of the club.

Five British Masters titles. Two European Masters titles. Fourth at the World Championships.

And she coaches the adult sessions herself.

Zoe came to weightlifting later in life, as her own pursuit of strength, then built Weights & Cakes so other people could have the same thing. Whether you want to compete one day or just learn to lift well and not hurt yourself, you're learning from someone who has actually done it.

Never picked up a weight? Perfect. That's exactly who this is for.

S.A.S.S stands for Strong Ass Strength Squad. It's a strongman-inspired session
built for every level of fitness. Fully inclusive. It genuinely does not matter where you're starting from, and nobody in that room is looking at you.

Most people who walk in nervous end up staying.

Somewhere to belong after school.

Teenagers need somewhere that isn't school and isn't their bedroom. Somewhere
they're not being marked, ranked or judged.

Our teens sessions teach them to lift properly and get genuinely strong. And the
confidence that comes with that tends to follow them out of the door.
