👋 MEET LIZ!

We’re really excited to officially welcome Liz to the Ouch Potato coaching team — especially as she’s actually been a member here for a while already. It makes this one feel extra special. đŸ„”đŸ’Ș

Liz is a Level 2 & 3 qualified Personal Trainer with a passion for women’s health, menopause and strength training.

Her journey into strength training began after an injury meant she had to step away from running. Around the same time, she was navigating hormonal changes and rebuilding her body following childbirth — and discovered just how transformative strength training can be.

It completely changed how she sees exercise.

Her philosophy?

“This isn’t about shrinking your body, it’s about expanding your power.”

Now Liz is passionate about helping more women feel what their bodies are truly capable of — building strength, confidence and resilience, not just chasing “smaller”.

Which fits perfectly with what we believe at Ouch: strength training for every body, at every stage. 💖💚

📍 You’ll find Liz coaching with us on Wednesday mornings.

She’s also taking on new 1-to-1 PT clients, so if you’d like some individual support with your training, we’ll tag her so you can reach out directly.

Please give Liz a very warm Ouch welcome! â€ïžđŸ„”đŸ’Ș

The hardest part isn’t the workout


It’s walking through the door for the very first time. 💚

When Megan joined Ouch Potato with her best friend a few months ago, she thought she didn’t have time for the gym.

Now? The scheduled classes make it easy. She turns up, gets coached, gets her workout done, and gets on with her day.

She’s stronger.
She’s fitter.
She’s calmer.
And the best part? She genuinely looks forward to coming.

A huge shout out to Maciej, whose support and attention to detail helped make that first session feel so much less daunting.

If you’ve been telling yourself you’ll start “one day”, let Megan’s story be your sign.

The hardest part isn’t the workout


It’s walking through the door for the very first time.

That’s why we’ve created a gym where you don’t need to know what you’re doing, you don’t need to be fit already, and you’ll always be made to feel welcome.

Come and see what we’re all about.

Same exercise. Different starting points. One supportive gym. 💙

Deadlifts can be intimidating at the best of times.

Add a back injury into the mix, and it’s easy to think, “I’ll never be able to do that.”

But that’s where good coaching makes all the difference.

By simply raising the trap bar on pads, we reduced the range of movement and made the lift work for her body. Instead of avoiding the exercise altogether, she was able to train safely, build confidence and leave feeling empowered.

Meanwhile, someone else might be lifting the same trap bar as heavy as they can.

Neither is “better.”

They’re just the right version for the person in front of us.

At Ouch Potato, we don’t expect you to fit the workout. We adapt the workout to fit you.

Whether you’re returning from an injury, starting your fitness journey, or chasing a new personal best, we’ll help you find the right place to begin.

If you watched this reel and thought


“I could never do that.”

Take another look.

What makes us most proud isn’t the fastest times or the heaviest weights. It’s seeing people of every age and fitness level stepping outside their comfort zone and surprising themselves.

Some of the people in this video only entered their very first fitness event a few months ago.

Now look at them.

They didn’t start as athletes. They simply decided to give it a go.

That’s exactly what the Ouch Potato Games are all about. Supporting each other, challenging yourself and proving that you’re capable of more than you think.

A huge well done to everyone who took part on Saturday. You were incredible, especially in that heat! ☀đŸ’Ș

Ready to challenge yourself?

You don’t need to be an athlete.

You just need to be willing to start.

🎯 TEST WEEK IS BACK!

After spending the last few months getting settled into our new space, we’re excited to bring back one of our favourite weeks in the training cycle
 Test Week! đŸ’Ș

This week, our Strength and SWEAT classes will be all about measuring your progress.

đŸ‹ïž Strength: We’ll be testing your squat, bench press and deadlift, so get ready to see what you’re capable of.

🏃 SWEAT: We’ve got a range of fitness tests to suit all ability levels, giving everyone a chance to benchmark where they are.

The important thing to remember is this


You’re not competing against anyone else. You’re competing against the person you were yesterday.

Yes, a little friendly competition can be fun if that’s your thing. We want Test Week to be motivating, not intimidating.

Having a benchmark gives your training purpose. It helps you see how far you’ve come, celebrate your progress, and gives us something to build on over the coming weeks.

So get yourself booked on, give it your best, and let’s see what you’ve achieved! 🙌

📈 Progress over perfection. Every single time.

24/06/2026

To keep everyone safe during the hottest part of the day, we’re swapping our peak-time sessions to slower, strength-based workouts.

You’ll still get a great session in, but with a focus on controlled movements, strength, and longer recovery periods rather than trying to survive a sweaty HIIT workout.

Stay hydrated, bring your water bottle, and remember: fitness is about training smart, not suffering in 28°C heat!

See you in class! đŸ’Ș
