BARBELL CLUB IS COMING THIS SEPTEMBER 🏋️
Want to feel more confident with a barbell and actually understand how to lift properly?
Barbell Club is a coached class designed to teach you the foundations of strength training and Olympic weightlifting.
Whether you’re completely new to lifting, or you’ve been training for a while but know your technique could be better, we’re going to break everything down step by step.
Across the programme, we’ll work through:
🏋️ Squats
🏋️ Deadlifts
🏋️ Overhead Press
🏋️ Front Squats
🏋️ Cleans
🏋️ Snatches
🏋️ Clean & Jerks
But here’s the important part…
THE FIRST 8 WEEKS ARE ALL ABOUT THE FOUNDATIONS.
We’re not interested in seeing who can put the most plates on the bar.
We want you to understand:
→ How to set up correctly
→ Where your body and the bar should be throughout the lift
→ How to brace and create stability
→ How to control the barbell
→ How mobility affects your lifting
→ How to recognise and correct poor technique
→ When you’re actually ready to add more weight
Technique first. Load second.
Then, once those foundations are established, Barbell Club will begin progressing into more advanced movements, Olympic lifting and more detailed programme design.
ALREADY LIFT?

WE’VE SEEN YOU…
You thought you were just coming to The Body Barn for a workout…
But we’ve been watching your little journey around the Barn
☕ We saw you in the café after training… coffee, protein bar and smoothie smashed… mug left behind.
🏋️ We saw you head into the gym and use ALL that lovely new kit… then somehow forget that dumbbells have a home and weight plates can actually come OFF the machines
🔥 We saw you move into the functional space… sled loaded, rowers dragged out, Astro covered in sweat… and then just casually walk away like nothing happened.
🥊 We saw you upstairs on the punch bags… throwing combinations like Rocky… before leaving your sweaty gloves underneath the bag.
🚴 Then into Ride… bike perfectly set up, training data still proudly displayed on the instructor screen… but apparently nobody told you bikes need resetting 😂
🧘 And finally… a nice little stretch and recovery session.
Lovely.
Apart from the yoga mat you left on the floor. 😂
But there is actually a point to this post…
LOOK AT WHAT YOU HAVE UNDER ONE ROOF. 👇
☕ Café
🏋️ Fully equipped gym
🔥 Functional training space
🛷 HYROX equipment
🥊 Dedicated boxing room
🚴 Ride studio
🧘 Mobility & recovery space
👥 Classes, coaching and an amazing community
You don’t need five different places.
It’s all here.
Welcome to The Body Barn 🧡🖤
Possibly the best workout in Shropshire…
Just PUT YOUR BLOODY KIT AWAY AFTERWARDS.

Last week was another reminder of what this community is all about.
Run Club continues to go from strength to strength. Every single week the group keeps growing, confidence is building, and everyone is getting one step closer to their 10K goals. The commitment and support for each other has been incredible to watch.
Our first HYROX Simulation of the month was another huge success. We saw plenty of personal bests, loads of members stepping up to complete their very first simulation, and an atmosphere that showed exactly why we love these events. Everyone pushed themselves outside their comfort zone, and that’s where progress happens.
Massive congratulations to Chloe and Tracie, who took on the Deadly Dozen challenge – 12 events in 12 hours – and smashed it by completing everything in 11 hours! An unbelievable achievement that took grit, determination and resilience from start to finish. Chloé Hayward
Weeks like this remind us that The Body Barn isn’t just about training. It’s about challenging yourself, supporting others, celebrating every win, and becoming capable of things you never thought possible.
Here’s to another week of raising the bar. 👊🧡

“The hardest step isn’t the workout… it’s walking through the door for the first time.”
Every week we meet people who are nervous.
They think they’ll be judged.
They worry they won’t be fit enough.
They wonder if they’ll fit in.
The truth?
Almost every member who’s part of The Body Barn today felt exactly the same before their first session.
What makes this place different isn’t just the coaching or the workouts—it’s the people.
A community that welcomes you from day one.
People who remember your name.
Training partners who become friends.
A room full of people who genuinely want to see you succeed.
Reading messages like this reminds us that we’re building far more than a gym.
We’re building confidence.
We’re building friendships.
We’re building a place where people feel they belong.
If you’ve been thinking about coming but you’ve been putting it off because you’re nervous…
This is your sign.
Come and see what The Body Barn is all about. We promise, you’ll never walk through those doors alone.

Things you’ll hear at The Body Barn…
“Just one more rep.”
“It’s lighter than it looks.”
“You’ll thank me later.”
We’re still waiting for the evidence on that last one… 😏😂
But one thing is true…
The things that scare you on day one become the things you’re proud of a few weeks later

A gym can have the best equipment in the world… but if you don’t feel like you belong, you’ll eventually stop turning up.
This message from one of our members sums up exactly what we’re trying to build at The Body Barn.
It’s not about how fit you are when you walk through the door. It’s about how you’re made to feel from the moment you arrive.
A place where people encourage each other.
A place where your wins are celebrated.
A place where coaches know your name, support your goals and genuinely care about your progress.
A place where you never feel judged or intimidated.
Yes, we have great classes.
Yes, we have an incredible gym.
Yes, we have HYROX, strength training, running clubs, boxing and open gym.
But what makes The Body Barn different isn’t the equipment.
It’s the people.
When members say they actually look forward to training because of the atmosphere, that’s something we’re incredibly proud of. Creating a community where everyone feels welcome, supported and challenged is what we’re all about.
Thank you for taking the time to share these words. They mean more to us than you’ll ever know. ❤️
The Body Barn. More than a gym. A community.
