🎬🔥 THAT’S A WRAP!!! FUELLED SUMMER ACADEMY 2026… COMPLETE! 🔥🎬
And do you know what? WE ABSOLUTELY SMASHED IT. 💙🩷
I genuinely think this has been our BEST Fuelled yet.
We took everything we’d learned from previous years, listened to the voices of our young people, looked at the feedback and built something bigger — the Fuelled Youth Fitness & Nutrition Academy.
And WOW… what a summer it has been. 🥹💪
The feedback from the teens, parents and our team has been absolutely amazing, but the biggest thing for me has been seeing just how much these young people have grown.
Some arrived on their first day nervous, quiet and unsure about stepping into a gym.
Fast forward to the final sessions and they’re walking in knowing how to set themselves up on equipment, choosing exercises, understanding what they’re doing and encouraging the person training next to them.
THAT is what Fuelled is about. ❤️
Over the Academy, our young people have learned:
🏋️ How to use a gym safely and confidently — from resistance machines to dumbbells, free weights and functional equipment.
💪 The foundations of strength training — basic movement patterns, push and pull movements, technique, tempo and control.
🧠 That a strong core means MUCH more than doing sit-ups — understanding stability, control and how their core supports movement throughout the whole body.
📈 That progress isn’t always about lifting the heaviest weight — good technique, consistency, effort and confidence matter.
🥗 How food fuels their bodies — learning about carbohydrates, protein, balanced meals, energy, performance and recovery.
👨🍳 How to actually prepare food themselves — from Wrap Lab and Protein Pizzas to Performance Bowls, snacks and Energy Balls.
🥤 And of course… THE SMOOTHIE BAR! They experimented with ingredients, flavours and created some brilliant combinations throughout the summer.
But some of the most important things they learned weren’t written on a PowerPoint or demonstrated on a piece of gym equipment.
They learned to have a go.
To ask questions.
To try foods they’d never tried before.
To use equipment they’d previously been nervous of.
To train alongside someone new.
To encourage each other.
To realise that they DO belong in a gym.
And to understand that being healthy isn’t about looking a certain way — it’s about becoming stronger, fitter, healthier and more confident in yourself. ❤️
Watching friendships form and confidence grow over these weeks has been incredible.
To every young person who walked through our doors this summer — whether you attended one session or all eight — THANK YOU for being part of it.
To the parents and carers who trusted us with their young people, thank you. ❤️
And to our Fuelled team who have put so much energy into making every session work — we smashed it.
Fuelled started as a summer programme.
This year, it became an Academy.
And I don’t think there’s any going back now. 🔥
