Back in the lab getting ready.

Jack Dillingham is back in at Forefront as preparations continue for his English Featherweight Title Eliminator at OVO Arena Wembley.

Our role is to support his athletic development throughout camp, building the strength, power, robustness and physical qualities that underpin performance in the ring.

The work continues.

Getting stronger isn’t about finding the perfect exercise or constantly changing what you do.

It’s built through weeks and months of doing the right things consistently.

Good movement. Appropriate loading. Enough quality work. Gradual progression. Then repeating the process.

Some weeks you’ll add weight. Some weeks you’ll add reps. Sometimes progress means simply moving the same load better than you did before.

None of it is particularly flashy.

But it works.

At Forefront, that’s what we’re interested in: structured training, proper coaching and consistent progression that actually takes you somewhere.

No gimmicks. No need to reinvent training every week. Just good strength and conditioning, done properly.

Strength training, and it's benefits as we age are well documented. But power is just as important.

Here’s Coach Ben demonstrating one of the simplest ways we train it: the medicine ball chest pass.

Throwing, jumping, sprinting and moving explosively all challenge us to produce force quickly, which is why power work has a place in our programmes regardless of age or training experience.

We want our members to build strength, but we also want them to remain quick, explosive and athletic.

Because being strong is useful.

Being able to use that strength when you need it is even better.

Train for life outside the gym.

It’s always great to receive feedback like this, particularly when a member has seen such a positive impact on their sporting performance.

That is ultimately why I started Forefront, and why I’ve continued to evolve it: to give people who take their training seriously access to a high-quality strength and conditioning environment.

We currently have a limited number of Open Gym memberships available for experienced, independent trainees.

10 years.

For the past decade, we've been coaching people in and around Long Eaton to become stronger, healthier and more confident.

During that time, fitness has seen countless trends come and go. Exercises have been renamed. Training methods have been repackaged. Every year there's a new "must-do" programme.

We've never felt the need to chase them.

Instead, we've continued to coach using proven training principles that have stood the test of time. Progressive overload. Consistency. Good movement. Individual coaching. Hard work. They're not flashy, but they work.

Over those 10 years, we've also continued to invest in the things that genuinely improve the training experience. From specialist strength equipment to Olympic lifting platforms and purpose-built facilities, every investment has been made to help our members train better—not simply to follow the latest trend.

For most people, the journey starts with our non-committal 6 Week Reboot.

It's an opportunity to experience our coaching, learn how we train, begin building sustainable habits, and see whether Forefront is the right fit for you—without the pressure of a long-term commitment.

If it is, you can then move onto one of our monthly memberships and continue building on those foundations.

After 10 years, one thing hasn't changed.

Good coaching. Proven principles. Long-term results.
