Stronger for real life
Strength is not about looking like a bodybuilder or surviving a punishing workout. It is about feeling more capable, confident and energised in everyday life.
Feel stronger carrying shopping, luggage and the everyday loads life throws at you.
Feel steadier on walks, stairs and the activities you enjoy.
Build a stronger body that supports work, family, travel and weekends.
Learn good technique, train consistently and get gradually stronger over time.
A different route
Some people over 40 find repeated running, jumping and high-impact movements hard on their knees, hips or back — especially when returning to exercise. Strength takes a different route: focused resistance training that challenges your muscles without repeated impact.
Done properly, strength training can also raise your heart rate while building strength and supporting healthy movement. No running required.
What to expect
You will work through slow, controlled resistance exercises with coaching throughout — purposeful strength work adapted to your starting point.
What Strength is not
What Strength is
The method
Long gym sessions can include waiting around, changing equipment and resting between unrelated exercises. Strength keeps the session focused. Slow, controlled repetitions make your muscles do the work instead of relying on speed or momentum, so every part of the 30 minutes has a purpose.
You move deliberately so you can focus on technique and keep the work where it belongs.
The exercises are designed to challenge your muscles and help you build strength progressively.
You get a focused workout without needing to spend an hour in a gym.
Why Strength
No unnecessary high-impact movements.
Progressive training that helps you build useful strength over time.
Controlled exercises that avoid repeated high-impact movement.
Focused programming can challenge your muscles and lift your heart rate without running or jumping.
Coaching and pacing designed around your starting point, not a 25-year-old's.
Why it works
It is easier to keep coming back when people know your name. Strength is small-group coaching, so you get guidance, encouragement and accountability from both Chris and the people training alongside you.
You come for the exercise, but you may stay for the people.

Questions
No. Strength is built around controlled strength training, with no running, jumping or burpees.
The session is focused rather than padded with long periods of waiting or changing between unrelated exercises. Slow, controlled resistance exercises keep your muscles working purposefully, while the session is adapted to your starting point.
The session can be challenging for your muscles, but you will be coached throughout and exercises can be adjusted to your starting point. You do not need previous gym or weight-training experience.
You perform each movement deliberately rather than rushing or using momentum. This helps you focus on technique and control the exercise.
Yes. Sessions use resistance bands and TRX, and Chris coaches the technique from the ground up, adapting the exercises to your starting point.
Strength is designed to be joint-friendly, but every person is different. You will complete a quick health form first, and Chris will be upfront if the session is not a suitable fit. If you have a medical condition, recent surgery or significant pain, check with your GP or health professional first — the health form is not a substitute for medical advice.
The outdoor bootcamp is faster-paced and includes more constant movement and running. Strength is a lower-impact, strength-focused session built around controlled resistance exercises. It runs for 30 minutes directly before bootcamp, so you can do one or both.
No. Bring water, comfortable clothes, trainers and a towel if you want one. The session equipment is provided.
You will complete the quick health questionnaire, then Chris will message you within 24 hours to confirm your free first Strength session.
