WHY WE RUN LIFT CLUB 🏋️‍♂️
Tonight, Coach Jess ran another BHF Lift Club session, focusing on the fundamentals of compound movements.
For me, this is exactly what strength training should be about.
A good training programme doesn’t need to be complicated. Before we worry about endless exercises, advanced techniques or constantly changing workouts, we need to become good at the basics.
Tonight’s session focused on four fundamental movement patterns:
SQUAT — building lower-body strength and control.
HINGE — developing the posterior chain and learning to produce force through the hips.
PUSH — building upper-body pressing strength.
PULL — developing back strength, posture and control.
These movements form the foundation of almost every effective strength programme.
The aim of Lift Club isn’t simply to make people tired for an hour. It’s to teach our members how to train properly— understand the movements, improve their technique, progressively get stronger and ultimately become more confident in the gym.
Strength is a skill.
The better you become at the fundamentals, the more you can build from them.
Well done to everyone who came along tonight, and a big thanks to Coach Jess for delivering another great session.
