Transition Training Studio

Folks I'm delighted to announce the return of - Transition Barbell Club - which will be held on Tuesday & Thursday evenings at 6pm in 4 week blocks - starting on Tuesday 18th February. Periodised olympic weightlifting programs will be tailored for regular attendees. Also compound barbell movements to improve all over strength will be coached at these sessions along with mobility drills to improve stability.

Performing a sn**ch or a clean & jerk is a full-body workout. A lot of calories are burned during these workouts in a short amount of time. Olympic lifts are a great way to decrease body fat, build muscle, increase strength and maximize your time strength training.

Olympic weightlifting produces some of the highest power outputs on any gym floor. Power, the product of strength and speed, is the key ingredient to helping people move in a more explosive manor. Incorporating these lifts into workouts is the most effective way to build power and speed.

These movements are versatile and can be also used to enhance high-intensity exercise endurance, recover more quickly and handle higher amounts of training.

The lifts help promote flexibility and stability.
Controlling a load throughout the ROM of all joints is key to preparing the body for the high forces encountered in sport.

Snatches and clean & jerks require precise coordination, rhythm, and timing. They make an athlete exert a force into the ground through a quick and coordinated "triple extension" of the ankle, knee, and hip, mirroring what happens in sprinting and jumping, the core components of most sports.

Many athletes find learning these complex movements with a barbell intriguing and the process of refining these skills keeps them focused on trying to hit bigger numbers in the long run.

Thank you to every single client who used in 2024 - it was a pleasure. Here’s to a bigger and better 2025 with the proper arrival of the Hyrox crew. 🏋️‍♀️🏃‍♂️

Strength - one of the 3 major building blocks for our Hyrox camp.

It has to be said that the strength element can easily be neglected when athletes are training for an aerobic event such as a Hyrox.

At Transition we put a huge emphasis on strength training especially if athletes are working towards the likes of a Hyrox event instead of being busted in every session which may make you feel good at the time but may have no real benefit on aerobic capacity in the long run and only increases the risk for fatigue and injury.

We will be working on mobility drills, compound lifts, Olympic weightlifting and other strength based specific Hyrox exercises which will improve power, flexibility & coordination.

We look forward to welcoming all our new Hyrox athletes on 7th January.

There are only 2 places remaining folks if anyone else wants to jump on board - get in touch with .mc.laughlin / or 🏋️‍♀️🏃‍♂️
