Peak Strength was founded in 2019 by Paul Gray through a love of functional fitness & a quest to enable people to become fit and healthy in a fun & friendly environment. Forget mundane & monotonous training regimes on your own - the expertly programmed group workouts are scaleable and inclusive; regardless of your fitness level you will be able to take part.
Functional fitness prepares your body for movements we execute in everyday life, whether that be picking up some heavy objects or simply standing from a seated position. Peak Strength have the experience, enthusiasm and drive to help lead you to a better quality of life through developing your physical wellbeing.

Functional fitness focuses on "compound movements", like squats, deadlift, presses & pulls, it's a unique but all encompassing programme featuring elements of Olympic Lifting & Gymnastics.
With a bachelors degree in Sports Health and Masters degree in Sports Exercise Psychology, Paul has tested his knowledge in the field of sport and fitness and has gained over 10 years experience working amongst teams such as Basketball, wheelchair basketball, and athletics as well as several years in fitness facilities.
Paul said "I enjoy all aspects of training especially gymnastics. I got into fitness to challenge myself and push myself to new limits & since training in a group environment I have been able to find new levels of fitness and a competitive edge. I got into coaching when I saw how effective fitness can be to people. Helping people achieve something great is a fantastic feeling".
Many of the members at Peak enjoy the community that comes with group workouts. "It's a different kind of bond that's forged once you've been side by side egging each other on through a tough workout, everyone is so supportive." says Paul.
For those members with a more competitive streak, the gym also offers quarterly competitions which are open to members of other functional fitness / CrossFit gyms. It's a great opportunity to see what the fitness community is all about, many entrants clearly take their training seriously, but the common theme throughout is that everybody taking part gets immense satisfaction and will each take home a small personal win.
