Chest day done right. 💪

You’ll see a lot of pressing in this clip — and there’s a reason we programme these movements regularly at Exsto Gym 👇

• Build real upper-body strength – presses train the chest, shoulders and triceps together, making them some of the most effective compound lifts.
• Carryover to everyday life & sport – pushing strength matters for everything from rugby tackles to pushing sleds or even just moving better day-to-day.
• Improved posture & balance – when trained properly (with good coaching), chest work supports shoulder stability rather than wrecking it.
• Confidence boost – there’s something powerful about getting stronger under the bar. Strength changes how you move, stand and show up.

Chest workouts aren’t about ego lifting.
They’re about progression, control, and doing the basics really well.

Strong foundations. Strong people.

What’s the secret sauce of Exsto Gym?
It’s not the machines.
It’s not the classes.
It’s not even the workouts…

👉 It’s the people.

This photo says it all.
Different ages. Different backgrounds. One community.

We train hard together.
We laugh together.
We support each other inside the gym…
and show up for each other outside it too.

At Exsto, you don’t just join a gym —
you become part of a culture where:
• Everyone is welcome
• Progress is celebrated
• Confidence is built
• And friendships are formed for life

If you’re looking for more than just a place to train —
if you want accountability, belonging, and a team that actually cares…

That’s the Exsto difference.
That’s the secret sauce. ❤️

Thinking of joining?
Come for a session… stay for the people.

Register your interest now.
Start fresh in January.

Remove the nerves.
Know what to expect.
Walk in ready — not overwhelmed.

Consistency beats intensity. Every. Single. Time.

This photo isn’t random.
I deliberately chose Karen and Lesley because they embody what real progress actually looks like.

They don’t always feel amazing.
Sometimes they’re sore.
Sometimes work gets in the way.
Sometimes menopause makes things harder.
Sometimes they arrive late, tired, or not feeling 100%.

But here’s the difference👇
They show up anyway.

They have non-negotiables.
One of them? Steps. Minimum 10,000 per day.

And here’s the part that blows my mind…
👉 Karen is in YEAR 5 of never missing a 10k step day. Ever. Not once.

No extremes.
No all-or-nothing.
No waiting to feel motivated.

Just consistency, stacked over time.

If you’re waiting for the “perfect week” to start…
If you think progress only comes from going all-out…
Look at this photo again.

This is how results are actually built.
Quietly. Repeatedly. Relentlessly.

Show up. Even when it’s messy.
Especially when it’s messy. 💪

PS:
Lesley has dropped 2 stone.
Karen has dropped almost 2 stone.

No gimmicks. No shortcuts.
Just consistency doing what it always does.

We didn’t win Best Gym in Belfast by having the newest machines or the fanciest equipment.

We won it because of the people.
The coaches who actually care.
The members who support each other.
The systems that help people stay consistent, not overwhelmed.
And the environment where showing up matters more than showing off.

Back then — and still now — the goal was never to be the biggest or the flashiest.
It was to build a place where people feel comfortable starting, encouraged to keep going, and proud of the progress they make.

Awards fade.
Culture lasts.

And that’s something we’ll always protect. 💪❤️

Not all training is about weight loss.

Meet Perla.

She originally joined Exsto to strengthen her back after a serious injury — and a few frustrating relapses when she thought she had recovered.

Over the last year, we’ve focused on building real, sustainable strength to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

And along the way, we’ve seen so many other benefits too.

Motivation comes and goes, habits don’t. People always want the quick fix and that’s fine you can get that but to have sustained results you must first look at your habits. Ask yourself a very simple question 🙋‍♀️ Will your current habits get you to your desired outcome.
