ONE COMMUNITY. ONE CHALLENGE. ONE VERY SPECIAL REASON. šŸ’›

On Friday 23 October, we’re bringing the UR Performance community together for something that means a lot more than just a competition.

THE CHARITY ERG OFF FOR HARPER šŸ’›

Three-year-old Harper is currently undergoing treatment at The Christie following a relapse of medulloblastoma, a form of brain cancer.

Her dad, George, has been training with us at UR Performance while the family are in Manchester for Harper’s treatment.

We wanted to do something to show our support, bring people together and raise as much money as possible for The Christie Charity, supporting children receiving treatment.

And what better way than a good old-fashioned Erg Off! šŸ‘Š

THE CHALLENGE:

šŸ‘„ Teams of 2 - Male, Female or Mixed

ā›·ļø 10 minutes SkiErg
🚣 10 minutes RowErg
🚓 10 minutes BikeErg

ā±ļø 2-minute changeovers between machines
šŸ”„ You Go I Go - share the work however you like!

The aim is simple: cover the greatest combined distance across all three machines.

šŸ“… FRIDAY 23 OCTOBER
šŸ“ UR Performance, Manchester
šŸ•• Registration from 6pm

HOW TO GET INVOLVED:

šŸ’› Find yourself a partner
šŸ’› Book your place through GoTeamUp or the UR App
šŸ’› Make a donation through our JustGiving page

āš ļø Both partners must book and donate individually. Please use your full name when donating so we can match your donation to your booking.

There’s no minimum donation. Every contribution, big or small, makes a difference.

Whether you’re coming to compete, support, donate or simply be part of the atmosphere, we’d love to see you there.

This one’s bigger than fitness. Let’s get behind Harper and her family and make it a night to remember. šŸ’›

šŸ“² Booking and donation details available through the UR App, or drop us a message and we’ll point you in the right direction.

PERFORM WITH PURPOSE.

Gym Transformation From Awkward to Great

At his old commercial gym, Josh was ā€œthe weird one.ā€
Running between the ski erg, the rower, and picking up kettlebells — while everyone else side-eyed him, wondering what on earth he was doing.

Here? That’s just normal.

No stares. No confused looks. Just people around him doing the same kind of training, branching out in the same kind of ways.

ā€œIt definitely helps when people are doing similar things.ā€

Train how you actually want to train — surrounded by people who get it šŸ’š

Ready to find your kind of normal?
DM us ā€œJOINā€ and we’ll help you get started at UR Performance.

HYROX STATION WORKSHOP!

SATURDAY 24 OCTOBER
12:00–1:15PM
FREE
MEMBERS + NON-MEMBERS

We’re back with Part 2 of our HYROX Station Workshop, this time focusing on three completely different stations:

→ SLED PUSH
→ SANDBAG LUNGES
→ WALL BALLS

This isn’t about just putting you through another hard session.

We’ll break each movement down properly, cover the key standards and technical points, give you time to practise at a controlled intensity, then build things up while giving individual coaching and feedback.

3 coaches.
3 groups.
Around 20 minutes per station.

If you’re racing HYROX this season and want to make these movements cleaner, more efficient and more repeatable when fatigue starts to build, this is for you.

24 spaces initially available.

šŸ“² Contact us directly or book your FREE place through the UR app / GoTeamUp.

Open to members and non-members, so feel free to share this with friends or training partners who’d benefit.

PERFORM WITH PURPOSE.

BRING A FRIEND WEEK IS BACK… BUT WITH A CATCH šŸ‘€šŸ˜‚

From Monday 19th – Sunday 25th October, we’re running the UR WALL BALL CHALLENGE.

The goal is simple:

Do as many wall balls as possible UNBROKEN.

ā™€ļø Female: 4kg
ā™‚ļø Male: 6kg

Hit 100+ unbroken and you’ll unlock a FREE 7-Day Performance Trial to gift to ONE friend. šŸ‘Š

So technically… you’ve got to earn Bring a Friend Week this time.

You can have as many attempts as you want throughout the week, with your best score going onto the leaderboard.

šŸ† We’ll also have two overall winners:

• Highest Male Score
• Highest Female Score

Both winners will receive a prize.

HOW TO GET YOUR SCORE VERIFIED:

Your attempt must either:

→ Be witnessed by a UR staff member
OR
→ Be recorded in full and submitted to us

The best time to have a go will usually be before or after a class, or when a staff member is available.

Please don’t interrupt a coach delivering a session or complete an attempt where it obstructs a class or other service in the gym šŸ˜‚.

šŸŽ HIT 100?

Your free 7-Day Performance Trial can be gifted to ONE friend who is new to UR, and must be used within two weeks of the challenge finishing, by Sunday 8th November.

7 days.
Unlimited attempts.
100 reps to unlock the reward.

And judging by this video, Alex might not make it to the start of the challenge šŸ˜‚

Who’s backing themselves for 100? šŸ‘‡

PERFORM WITH PURPOSE.

Chloe still remembers her first session at UR.

Even in one of the busiest classes, Louis took the time to slow things down, explain the movements properly and make sure she felt supported.

That’s what good coaching should look like.
It isn’t just about delivering a workout and moving on.

It’s about noticing when someone needs help, meeting them where they are and giving them the confidence to keep learning.

Whether you’re completely new to training or already experienced, our coaches are there to help you move better, understand what you’re doing and get the most from every session.
A massive thank you to Chloe for sharing her experience and for being such an important part of the UR community šŸ’š

ā€œCouldn’t run a 5K properly.ā€ šŸƒā€ā™€ļø

That’s how Izzy describes herself before UR.
Didn’t know what HYROX was.
Couldn’t have imagined running one.
Definitely didn’t think a half marathon was on the cards.

Since joining UR:
šŸ† 3 HYROX events completed
šŸ… A half marathon done
šŸ’Ŗ Stamina she says has ā€œimproved dramaticallyā€

ā€œIt’s one of the best things I’ve done.ā€ Not just saying it either.

That’s the kind of progress that happens when the training, the coaching and the people around you all push in the same direction šŸ’š

This month’s Member of the Month goes to Ste, and it couldn’t go to a nicer bloke. From day one he’s been an absolute pleasure to have in the gym. Always turning up with a great attitude, always friendly with everyone, and just an all-round sound guy to be around.

Ste quietly gets on with the work every session, putting the effort in without ever making a fuss. He’s one of those members who brings a really positive energy to the place – always up for a chat, always encouraging others, and always giving it his best.

What a lot of people might not realise though is that he’s also a bit of a machine when it comes to running. Recently he smashed an incredible 1 hour 23 minute half marathon, which is seriously impressive and shows just how much work he puts in behind the scenes.

Hard-working, consistent, supportive, and just a genuinely good guy – we’re lucky to have him as part of the gym.

Massively well deserved, Ste. Keep smashing it! šŸ‘šŸƒā€ā™‚ļø

Happy Birthday .performance šŸ™ŒšŸ½šŸ™ŒšŸ½

Thanks for your commitment to the gym and to our members - for always showing up, bringing the energy, and helping everyone perform their best.

The gym wouldn’t be the same without your energy, your encouragement… and your eclectic playlist choices. You’re an old soul, and somehow you’ve managed to turn open gym into a musical journey through the decades!

Your dedication, consistency, and the way you genuinely care don’t go unnoticed. We’re lucky to have you.

Have an amazing birthday, Coach!

Training at UR is changing.

From March 2nd, everything we do moves into structured 8-week blocks.

This means no more random sessions, no more guessing, and no more training without direction.

Every class has a clear purpose with progression and testing.

Every session builds on the last.

And everything you do contributes towards real, measurable progress.

Strength. Engine. Running. Performance & More.

All working together.

This is about raising the standard of how we train, how we coach, and the results you get.

This is the next step for UR Performance.

Perform With Purpose.
