COACH TUX - JOE TUCKER
Meet another coach (co-owner & founder) at UNIT 54 GRFT Training Club. Let’s not talk about professional sport back in the 90s…….. let’s fast forward what he’s taken from that! Professionalism, drive, focus and determination to get the BEST from every single person who walks onto the gym floor.
Head of Hyrox & Hyrbrid Programming - he has developed his own theories through tried & tested results! Trained by World Class coaches and working alongside some of the top Speed, Agility & Quickness gurus, Tux has brought his Weightlifting qualifications, high performance knowledge & experience in the professional game to UNIT 54! With 30 + years in sport and still setting the standard, I’m sure all our members here @unit54grft would agree that he leads by example!
A STRONG Link 🔗 of the TEAM at GRFT!
Thanks @mksimages for another class vid 📷

COACH EMMA LEIGH!
Em has all the qualifications but beyond that she’s got insane competition experience as far as being as Crossfit Games athlete - Masters Division AND most importantly she’s an absolute gem!! A caring, supportive, encouraging coach but will not let you take your foot off the gas and you’ll thank her for it after 💪🏼
We’re lucky to have her as part of the GRFT team!
Thanks @mksimages for capturing some great footage! 👌🏼

MEMBER TESTIMONIAL and what a bloody one it is! Laura is ex international Crossfit and Olympic weightlifter and here’s what she has to say about UNIT 54 -
“After partaking in competitive CrossFit and Olympic Weightlifting in an international field for most of my adult life I then took somewhat of a hiatus.
Recently, I have found Unit 54 which is a welcoming training environment, with good quality equipment, well thought out programming and great coaching. Millie and Joe have created a wonderful sanctuary for people to enjoy fitness. Unit 54 is a gym for all people who want to progress with their fitness and have that hour to themselves! I always leave the classes feeling that endorphin rush. I also use open gym where I am always met with a friendly face, support and enthusiasm!
Thank you Unit 54 for helping me reignite my love for training!”
Coach Em takes to the floor this weekend at French Throwdown! We’re super lucky to have her at our gym supporting us and you guys and now it’s our turn to show some love for her! We’re behind you all the way @emma_leigh_1 LFG!! 💥
She loves a bit of MJ so… get and start something on that comp floor and show them 💪🏼 🫶🏼
One TEAM | One UNIT 🖤
Looking back on what has been an unreal start of the year for not only the gym itself but our awesome bloody members achieving things they never thought was possible! Half marathons, marathons, Fitness comps and now official Hyrox comps ticked off ✅
Absolutely UNREAL effort from these amazing athletes taking on for some, their very first Hyrox and we are beyond proud of them for not just representing Unit 54 but turning up for THEMSELVES and believing in eachother. 🥰
We are a competitive gym community @unit54grft but we want to help and push our members to build the confidence to take that big jump into taking the gym with you, to open up new opportunities outside the gym and take them outside their comfort zone to events like these! WE ARE RIGHT BEHIND YOU AND BEYOND PROUD OF YOU HYBRID ROCKSTARS 🤣 ❤️
Still buzzing for the achievements you all made! WELL DONE TEAM! 💪🏼
If you are thinking of taking on new challenges and need help and support in starting, planning, programming to push your limits or just take them first steps, then we are here for YOU!
One TEAM One UNIT 🖤

POLITE NOTICE
A post we feel rubbish having to put out but necessary and hope that it translates in the way we intend 🫶🏼
We are an independent, family run gym… We aren’t a chain backed by a team of people and a bottomless pit of money to support what we do.
We’d really appreciate if people understand that we do our best to make our gym affordable, fair but also reflect the standard of facility, coaching and programming we offer. We are family run with the support of two amazing coaches and that’s it! We don’t have an accounts team, customer services team, social media team or cleaners etc, we are it! We physically cannot offer the same discounts that big gym chains can and don’t have the financial flexibility when it comes to membership fees and reduced rates.
We understand that individual circumstances change and we do our best to accommodate and support you all with those changes, however there has got to be rules I.E T&Cs in place to make things fair for all our members / potential members and to protect us financially or the gym wouldn’t survive.
All we ask is that people read and respect the T&Cs but mostly importantly understand that we are a small business doing our best. You’ll get so much more from us than few ££ off because this is more than just our job. We have put everything into it, we love what we do and hope that shows! It’s not about money making but equally, we have bills and wages to pay plus 5 greedy kids to feed 😂 we never do anything to be difficult, we hate saying no but we have to at times because it’s fair and to keep this gym going for you guys! 💪🏼
Thanks for your understanding 🫶🏼
Joe and Millie x
Nothing better than a sunny day spent doing your fav things with your mate ✨
Bloody loved this! More days like this please and thank you 🙏🏻
