Oak Strength Personal Training

Happy Birthday!!! Oak Strength turns 9 today.

9 whole years.

Through the good, the great, the bad, the difficult, and the almost impossible (lockdown) and the almost unbelievable I have persisted and I am still here, still assisting people to become stronger inside and out, developing strength in muscles and mindset.

Most importantly, THANK YOU to every single client, past, present and future for allowing me to live as Oak Strength (PT for 9 years and massage therapist for 5 years.) Thank you for trusting me with your goals, your physical wellbeing and your health targets.

Thank you to all the gyms, gym owners, landlords and spaces hired/utilised, who allowed Oak Strength clients to become stronger versions of themselves.

Thank you to my peers, mentors and further training course leaders for allowing me to be the best version of me, to then pass on extra information, skills and exercises to my clients.

Thank you to my family and friends for tolerating everything from the mad ideas and event sign up's to the exhaustion and tears when it all feels too much.

There are far too many people, places and things to name individually but I appreciate you all, thank you for being part of the story so far.

Happy Self-employment anniversary to me and Oak Strength.

Throughout April some of Team Oak Strength have been recording their exercise, training sessions, walks, runs, swims or cycling distances/efforts to raise funds for and awareness of bowel cancer; Active April for Bowel Cancer UK

And other team members have added their miles and sweat to the total.

Hey - if you’re in or around Gloucester 👋 Emma (@oakstrengthemma) and I are hosting a small, informal morning for anyone navigating menopause, hormone changes or women’s health, or if you want to connect with lkke minded women. Nothing heavy. No lectures. Just coffee, conversation, questions and feeling less alone in it. It’s a small group so spaces are limited - but if this sounds like something you’d find helpful, send me a DM 🤍 Sunday 8th Feb, 10–12 in Gloucester (GL1) ☕ 👌✨️

Oak Strength CLOSED until Thursday 2nd April due to illness.

Not sure about Tuesday yet will see how it goes.
But definitely NOT well enough to work tomorrow.

Good morning Social Media World

is FULL.

Or at least as full as I can manage time, energy and effort-wise.

Amazingly huge Thank You's to everyone already onboard. You are all incredible!!!

Yes, not dark for my 6am start.
