Coaching With JK

Kicking 2026 off with some 2025 client highlights 💪🏼

😱 Beth (aka the strongest female bencher we have) making 76kg look far too easy…

🤩 Ellie not only nailing one of the hardest exercises there are, but sailing through a set of 6 of those dreaded Nordics

🔥 Lizzi smashing 2 (and 3/4) chin ups - her number one goal in our sessions together!

💪🏼 Nick grinding through a 101kg axle bar bench press - a huge 6kg PB

📸 Another year of abs classes in the bag

😍 Fran hitting a 140kg deadlift in her first full comp with style, perfect form & more in the tank

🏋️‍♀️ Hosting 2 Women’s Weightlifting Workshops & Comps - building a community of strong women at Strength Box

👏🏼 Paula working through injuries and falling in love with lifting; showing up stronger and stronger in every session

👨🏻👩🏻 Father / Daughter sessions with Ellie & John - here’s him making a 65kg sled look easy at 8am

A final mention goes to expanding the gym with our new studio - wrapping up 2025 with a community of 180 members who truly make the gym the special place it is 🙏🏼

Buzzing to see the goals my clients hit in 2026 🚀

Introducing our newest addition to the kit list; our Leg Press / Hack Squat, modelled by member & client Ellie 💥

When we asked members what they’d like to see next, this was the most highly requested by far! 😍

No excuses for skipping leg day now, with this machine offering leg press, hack squat and two calf raise variations 🔥

A few spaces opening up for March membership availability, so drop us a DM if you’d like to book a free trial to give it a go yourself 🙏🏼

SATURDAY CLASSES 🤩

Today was the first Saturday morning class - circuits was on the agenda 💪

Well done to all who came and pushed themselves hard today! 🔥

Every Saturday @ 9:30am - Circuits / Bootcamp / Core, on rotation 🙌

📍 Merton Rd BS7

We have expanded Strength Box Bristol!

We're now up and running in our bigger unit, still on the Merton Road industrial estate

Over 2.5x the space, more equipment and cardio equipment being added

If you're looking for a new gym with that semi private feel, drop me a message. We have a limited number of memberships available, so don't miss out!

I want to give a mention to Mattia for his continued hard work and perseverance! He came into having never really set foot in a gym before and now he's able to squat 70kg for reps! 🤯

He had some anxiety around the gym & exercise which is 100% understandable - they can be intimidating places and it often feels like everyone else knows what they're doing! 😖

He has taken on challenge after challenge and is now coming solo to train on his own as a member. And he's built some great strength now too! 💪

P.S my dodgy photography just happened to catch him on an off balance rep, sorry about that mate 🤣

I'm hesitant to use the F word, as I don't think a project like this is ever truly 'finished '🤣

Now is when the finishing touches begin: better quality implements, upgrading the little things, expanding into some strongman equipment and taking on board member suggestions. We're just getting started! 🏁

Gym memberships are £25 a month until the end of June. Head to the website to find out more ⬇️

CLIENT SHOUTOUT 📢

Helen has been smashing it since we began working together and her strength is still creeping up, as well as her confidence 💪

I think in all the time since we've started our sessions she has only missed about 2 of them ever.. what a machine! 🔥

Although her sessions are only 45 minutes, Helen's work rate ensures we cram a lot into that time and almost always push for some kind of personal best 🏆

Keep on killing it Helen 🥇

CLIENT SPOTLIGHT 📢

I want to give a big shoutout to Jack who has made a blistering start to his fitness journey 🔥

He's already almost half a stone down since he began and is getting stronger and more confident with every session 💪

Whenever he trains, Jack doesn't hold back and leaves it all on the gym floor. He puts in 110% effort every time and gets stuck right in to whatever we do. Amazing stuff!👌

Keep up the great effort mate, bravo 👏

The final addition! 🥳

Our Dual Adjustable Pulley cables will be arriving in 2 days' time - the last piece of the puzzle to complete the kit list ✅

We can't wait to have them assembled and operational ASAP!⌛
