Gym Transformation From Awkward to Great

At his old commercial gym, Josh was “the weird one.”
Running between the ski erg, the rower, and picking up kettlebells — while everyone else side-eyed him, wondering what on earth he was doing.

Here? That’s just normal.

No stares. No confused looks. Just people around him doing the same kind of training, branching out in the same kind of ways.

“It definitely helps when people are doing similar things.”

Train how you actually want to train — surrounded by people who get it 💚

HYROX STATION WORKSHOP!

SATURDAY 24 OCTOBER
12:00–1:15PM
FREE
MEMBERS + NON-MEMBERS

We’re back with Part 2 of our HYROX Station Workshop, this time focusing on three completely different stations:

→ SLED PUSH
→ SANDBAG LUNGES
→ WALL BALLS

This isn’t about just putting you through another hard session.

We’ll break each movement down properly, cover the key standards and technical points, give you time to practise at a controlled intensity, then build things up while giving individual coaching and feedback.

3 coaches.
3 groups.
Around 20 minutes per station.

If you’re racing HYROX this season and want to make these movements cleaner, more efficient and more repeatable when fatigue starts to build, this is for you.

24 spaces initially available.

📲 Contact us directly or book your FREE place through the UR app / GoTeamUp.

Open to members and non-members, so feel free to share this with friends or training partners who’d benefit.

PERFORM WITH PURPOSE.

BRING A FRIEND WEEK IS BACK… BUT WITH A CATCH 👀😂

From Monday 19th – Sunday 25th October, we’re running the UR WALL BALL CHALLENGE.

The goal is simple:

Do as many wall balls as possible UNBROKEN.

♀️ Female: 4kg
♂️ Male: 6kg

Hit 100+ unbroken and you’ll unlock a FREE 7-Day Performance Trial to gift to ONE friend. 👊

So technically… you’ve got to earn Bring a Friend Week this time.

You can have as many attempts as you want throughout the week, with your best score going onto the leaderboard.

🏆 We’ll also have two overall winners:

• Highest Male Score
• Highest Female Score

Both winners will receive a prize.

HOW TO GET YOUR SCORE VERIFIED:

Your attempt must either:

→ Be witnessed by a UR staff member
OR
→ Be recorded in full and submitted to us

The best time to have a go will usually be before or after a class, or when a staff member is available.

Please don’t interrupt a coach delivering a session or complete an attempt where it obstructs a class or other service in the gym 😂.

🎁 HIT 100?

Your free 7-Day Performance Trial can be gifted to ONE friend who is new to UR, and must be used within two weeks of the challenge finishing, by Sunday 8th November.

7 days.
Unlimited attempts.
100 reps to unlock the reward.

And judging by this video, Alex might not make it to the start of the challenge 😂

Who’s backing themselves for 100? 👇

PERFORM WITH PURPOSE.

Chloe still remembers her first session at UR.

Even in one of the busiest classes, Louis took the time to slow things down, explain the movements properly and make sure she felt supported.

That’s what good coaching should look like.
It isn’t just about delivering a workout and moving on.

It’s about noticing when someone needs help, meeting them where they are and giving them the confidence to keep learning.

Whether you’re completely new to training or already experienced, our coaches are there to help you move better, understand what you’re doing and get the most from every session.
A massive thank you to Chloe for sharing her experience and for being such an important part of the UR community 💚

“Couldn’t run a 5K properly.” 🏃‍♀️

That’s how Izzy describes herself before UR.
Didn’t know what HYROX was.
Couldn’t have imagined running one.
Definitely didn’t think a half marathon was on the cards.

Since joining UR:
🏆 3 HYROX events completed
🏅 A half marathon done
💪 Stamina she says has “improved dramatically”

“It’s one of the best things I’ve done.” Not just saying it either.

That’s the kind of progress that happens when the training, the coaching and the people around you all push in the same direction 💚

CAN’T EVEN PICK A DUMBBELL UP WITHOUT ALEX TRYING TO SIGN YOU UP 😂

We told him to spread the word about the offer. Didn’t realise that meant chasing people round the gym.

So before he comes after you too, here it is 👇

Before joining UR, Liam hated running.
He never imagined signing up for a 10K, a half marathon or any kind of running event. In his words, he thought anyone who did that was just a bit weird 😂

Since then, he’s completed the races, collected the medals and proved to himself that he’s capable of far more than he previously believed.

But the real achievement isn’t what’s written on paper.
It’s the confidence to enter.
The courage to try something new.
The change in mindset from “that isn’t for me” to “maybe I can do this.”

That’s what we want training at UR to create.
Not just fitter people, but people who are more confident, willing to step outside their comfort zone and prepared to take on challenges they once thought were beyond them.

A massive thank you to Liam for sharing his journey and for continuing to be such an important part of the UR community over the years 💚

This month’s Member of the Month goes to Ste, and it couldn’t go to a nicer bloke. From day one he’s been an absolute pleasure to have in the gym. Always turning up with a great attitude, always friendly with everyone, and just an all-round sound guy to be around.

Ste quietly gets on with the work every session, putting the effort in without ever making a fuss. He’s one of those members who brings a really positive energy to the place – always up for a chat, always encouraging others, and always giving it his best.

What a lot of people might not realise though is that he’s also a bit of a machine when it comes to running. Recently he smashed an incredible 1 hour 23 minute half marathon, which is seriously impressive and shows just how much work he puts in behind the scenes.

Hard-working, consistent, supportive, and just a genuinely good guy – we’re lucky to have him as part of the gym.

Massively well deserved, Ste. Keep smashing it! 👏🏃‍♂️

Happy Birthday .performance 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Thanks for your commitment to the gym and to our members - for always showing up, bringing the energy, and helping everyone perform their best.

The gym wouldn’t be the same without your energy, your encouragement… and your eclectic playlist choices. You’re an old soul, and somehow you’ve managed to turn open gym into a musical journey through the decades!

Your dedication, consistency, and the way you genuinely care don’t go unnoticed. We’re lucky to have you.

Have an amazing birthday, Coach!

Training at UR is changing.

From March 2nd, everything we do moves into structured 8-week blocks.

This means no more random sessions, no more guessing, and no more training without direction.

Every class has a clear purpose with progression and testing.

Every session builds on the last.

And everything you do contributes towards real, measurable progress.

Strength. Engine. Running. Performance & More.

All working together.

This is about raising the standard of how we train, how we coach, and the results you get.

This is the next step for UR Performance.

Perform With Purpose.
