Which rep is your breaking point? Be honest. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Where you put your feet before you even start moving is doing more work than most people realise.

Stance width, toe angle and where your weight sits through your foot all change what an exercise does and which muscles are being asked to do the work.

It is the foundation of nearly every movement we programme, and it barely gets talked about.

In a squat, a wider stance changes how the hips and inner thighs are recruited.

In a deadlift, a narrower stance shifts more load towards the hamstrings.

Even in a split squat, the length of your step changes the emphasis between the glute and the quad.

Most people set their feet the same way in every exercise because nobody has ever suggested they should do otherwise.

That is understandable, but once you start paying attention to it, you cannot stop noticing the difference it makes.

Swipe through for the main cues our coaches use when thinking about feet and stance ๐Ÿ‘‰

Ask a coach to look at your foot position in a session if this is something you have not thought about before.

And save this - it is worth coming back to. ๐Ÿ‘‡

September at A1 looks a little different... Two new sessions are now on the timetable!

From this week, two new sessions are running at A1.

Thursday 09:30

If a Thursday morning slot works better for your week than the evening options, this is the one.

Saturday 09:00

Is an extra Strength & Conditioning session, and a second Saturday session for anyone who wants to train a bit later or add a session to their week.

The existing Saturday 8am Beginners Skill Based Strength & Fitness class is staying exactly as it is.

Nothing has been removed, just added. Come and give one of the new sessions a go.

Which new session are you adding to your week?

Today, our members took on the Wigan 10K ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™‚๏ธ

A brilliant morning with a great atmosphere, plenty of support and so many of the A1 team out there running, cheering each other on and enjoying the day together.

Itโ€™s always good to see everyone step outside their usual training and take on something as a team.

This is one of the things we love about A1 - it doesnโ€™t stop at the studio door. ๐Ÿ–ค

Well done everyone ๐Ÿ‘

This Sunday, some of our members are lining up at the start of the Wigan 10K.

Different goals, different finishing times, the same A1 community showing up for something outside the studio together.

Please cheer our members on if you see them!

Come back Sunday to check out how they did!

Who is running?

Grip gets far less attention than it deserves.

The way you hold a bar, a dumbbell or a cable handle changes the position of your wrist, your elbow and ultimately your shoulder.

It changes which muscles are being asked to lead and which ones are just along for the ride.

The coaches at A1 pay attention to grip because itโ€™s one of those small details that once youโ€™re aware of it, it makes everything feel more deliberate.

And deliberate training is more effective training.

Swipe through for the main grip cues we use in class. ๐Ÿ‘†

This is one of those things thatโ€™s easier to feel than to read about.

Ask a coach to check your grip next session. ๐Ÿ‘‡

Weโ€™re still on a high from last weekend ๐Ÿคฉ

What made the weekend so special wasnโ€™t just the events themselves. It was the support.
Members cheering each other on, celebrating each otherโ€™s achievements, sharing the nerves before an event and the stories afterwards.

People who may have only known each other from a training session suddenly spending time together, building friendships and becoming part of something bigger.

Thatโ€™s what our community is all about.
