Chris Duncan Seminar – Review & Gym Update
Hey guys, I’ve taken a couple of days off after the seminar with Christmas and everything else going on, so if you messaged the gym and I didn’t get back to you straight away, that’s my fault. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone who came along and supported the seminar, and I hope everyone had a great Christmas as well. We’ll be off next week, but we’ll be back in on Saturday the 3rd, and then running as normal from there. If you’re planning your training aro

Chris Duncan Seminar – Important Capacity & Format Update
Hi guys, just a quick clarification and update regarding the Chris Duncan Seminar on Saturday the 20th (12:00 PM start). When we first planned the event, I thought we’d be able to fit around 100 people training on the mats at one time in the hall. After properly laying out the mats and planning the space, it’s clear that there’s no safe or practical way to fit that many people in while keeping the quality of training high. Because of that, we’ve capped the mat space at 60 peo

Today, I Did Something Unexpected
Guys, today I did something really unexpected. I sat down at my desk, opened up all the usual stuff I use for work and then I did something most people find awkward, even a bit embarrassing. Something that, if you did it in public, people would probably look at you funny. I recorded myself. Just me, my phone, and the camera rolling while I worked. It’s strange because I used to hate getting my photo taken. The thought of being on camera made me tense up. But now, so much of
