Looks who's joining Phoenix! For those who don't know, James's younger brother Phil has been in the Czech Republic for the past 15 years training top 10 strongman Ondřej Fojtů! With him he brings a wealth of strongman training, sibling rivalry and great competition experience.

Give him a few weeks to settle in with us, but soon he'll be available for strongman specific PT sessions. 🏋️‍♀️🏋️‍♂️

The Brighton Marathon is only a few weeks away, but did you incorporate a weight training programme to compliment your running training? It's something that often gets overlooked but can help massively with injury prevention and performance.

Luckily we have our Yas on hand, not only is she a great Personal Trainer, but also an avid runner herself so knows exactly what it's like to prepare for a race and to struggle with injury 🎽🏃‍♀️

💪What do we know about strength training? Well, quite a lot actually!✅
It's one of our specialties, and a topic I'm particularly passionate about, being a strongman competitor. 🏋️‍♂️

Strength training doesn't have to mean "BIG & BULKY", in fact we would usually refer to that as training for muscle mass . Strength training also doesn't have to be training specifically for a sport, it can be as simple as improving your strength to increase your squat performance, boost your deadlifting power or helping to surpass your current bench press record.

If you're looking for a gym to help you increase your strength, then look no further...

When you have a cupboard full of crisps and unhealthy snacks, it's hard to go for anything else when the cravings kick in. But how about making your own protein flapjacks? REALLY EASY to make PLUS you can play around with the flavours of protein powder.

Personally we really enjoy chocolate protein powder in it 🙌🍫

Why not make some now quickly so that you have some snacks for tomorrow/the weekend?

⛷Ski season is nearing the end, but there's still time to get some last-minute preparation in! It's something we've assisted many people in so we like to think we've perfected our approach to it.

To find out more, drop us a message with the word 'SKI'

p.s. it feels weird writing about skiing when it's so sunny outside 😂

We know a lot of gyms say that their members are like family, but we REALLY DO MEAN IT! So much so, that our members even become new friends! It's relationships like these that matter most! We're all here to train with similar goals, whether that's muscle building, fat loss, sports performance or injury rehabilitation, training with your friends means everyone is cheering for you, and everyone around you wants to see you smash your goals! 🥰

"As an 'older' person I know muscle strength and balance are very important in enabling me to continue to have a healthy and active lifestyle. James sets challenging programs tailored to my specific goals that continue to build my strength and flexibility. I have also noticed an improvement in my overall fitness and posture since joining Phoenix." - Alison

Knee pain, it gets in the way of everyday life, stops you taking part in activities you love and generally just sucks! 👎

Arthroscopic surgeries to treat this are extremely common and yet many people still suffer even after this intervention. I have personally suffered with knee pain so know only too well how frustrating and debilitating it can be! 🏥

Stronger quads, in particular VMO (Vastus Medialis Oblique) strength is well documented to be directly correlated with pain reduction. I find it extremely frustrating that some of the myths around training legs persist today, in particular that squatting below parallel is bad for your knees.

Nothing could be further from the truth!! ❌

It has been proven through EMG (Electromyography) testing that the VMO is most active in movements like the squat, when below parallel, so stopping short will not do your knees any favours at all! 👆

We use science and prescriptive exercises to ensure that all our clients can get the most out of their training and are not just given cookie cutter programmes that won’t work for many. If you want to find out how we can help you work around, and overcome your knee pain, get in touch and find out more! Email us at: info@phoenixperformance.co.uk 🌐

🦾Generic workouts get generic results and we think YOU deserve better! Sure, you can copy some 'fitness guru's' "Transform Your Body in 30 days", but has your physiology been taken into consideration? Injury history? Your energy levels on busy days? The way your body responds to certain movements? Does it give you feedback on form and positioning? Probably not. That’s why we focus on creating highly personalised programs that evolve with you.

💪Our expert coaches take the time to learn about you, your goals, your history and what you're looking to achieve. We then turn this insight into a plan that gets you results you can see and feel. Because you’re not just a number, and your plan shouldn’t treat you like one.
