Unit 2 Fitness For Women

She’s officially part of the Unit 2 crew! 💚💪

It was an absolute pleasure doing this young lady’s induction this evening.

She’s been counting down the days to come and train with her mum, and after turning 11 a couple of weeks ago, it’s finally her turn! 🎉

We’ve put together a fun, age appropriate programme to introduce her to strength training safely, build confidence and most importantly, make exercise something she enjoys.

The best part? Five minutes after I’d shown her how to use the machines, Mum tried to help, and was promptly told, “no I can do it”😂 Safe to say she’s already fiercely independent!

Welcome to the Unit 2 family Esta! we can’t wait to watch your confidence (and your muscles 💪😉) grow!

What a great class we had last night! 🔥🥵

It was definitely a sweaty one, but you ladies absolutely smashed it from start to finish! 💪👏

Now I’m hoping you’ve all got some achy bodies today… that’s how you know the hard work paid off! 🙈🤣

Rest up, recover, and I’ll see you all at the next one! 🪖💚

🚨 Midweek confession 🚨

I really couldn’t be bothered doing my workout today 😂 🤦🏼‍♀️

I considered all the excuses
“I’m tired”
“I’ve got too much to do”
“I’ll do it tomorrow instead “

Then I thought, I don’t ever feel motivated to clean the bathroom either 🤷‍♀️

Or mop the floors.
Or empty the dishwasher.
Or tackle the mountain of washing.

I just get on with it because it needs doing.

The workouts are the same.

The women who get the best results aren’t the ones who feel motivated every day, they’re the ones who turn up even when they’d rather be doing anything but their workout.

Motivation comes and goes.

Habits are what get you stronger 💚

So if you’re waiting to feel like exercising, don’t.

Just tick it off the list, give yourself a little pat on the back, and move on with your day.

Your future self will thank you for it 💪

Excited , clothing order has just arrived 🥰 absolutely love the new designs thankyou Jen Hudson ❤️

Who’s reporting for duty tonight? 🙌🪖

💚 Strike a pose!!!!……. and try not to pull a hamstring 😆

Wendy is 63, and one of our most consistent members at Unit 2!

She attends 3 small group PT sessions every week and very rarely misses one. In fact, over the last few months she’s managed to keep training through a broken elbow and a broken foot (not at the same time thankfully! 😂)

We just adapted her workouts around the injuries because doing something is always better than doing nothing.

Consistency isn’t about being perfect. It’s about showing up, even when life throws a few curveballs (or a plaster cast 😂)

💚 That’s why Wendy keeps getting stronger

Well done to every single one of our members who keep turning up. They inspire everyone else in the gym 💚
