Although our new London personal training gym isn’t quite “fully” open for business yet (the gym is 98% complete and we are waiting on the overdue 155lb dumbells, super yoke, and farmer’s walk cylinders, the showers were completed just a week ago and we still have to kit out the therapy room and put up all the pretty photos ) we have already received some great feedback from clients, personal trainers, and fitness icons alike.
Charles Poliquin is in the UK at Fulham Football Club’s Surrey training ground delivering his excellent BioSignature Modulation course to the eager ears of some lucky new trainers (I remember my first time wistfully…) and he called me the other day to ask if we were ready for him. Given that Poliquin is the man who has single handedly formulated or unearthed more advanced and effective resistance training protocols than any other man alive (Joe Weider should be so lucky), and taking into account the fact that the Poliquin proclivities don’t have much room for anything that isn’t world class, especially when it comes to his own weight training regimen, I could only take the call as a compliment to his faith in us to put together what he said would be “London’s only serious strength & conditioning facility for real personal trainers”.
Charles Poliquin training at Ultimate Performance London
So Charles and the rest of the Poliquin crew traveled all the way up to London from Surrey this weekend for a legs session with Ultimate Performance’s newest London Personal Trainer Michael Porter. It’s always instructive watching a man like Charles Poliquin train and anyone who has ever met him will know that he definitely lives the lifestyle. Watching the heavy squats with a ten second negative counted aloud served as a reminder that time under tension is key and that training tools mix is endlessly creative in the right hands.
The next Poliquin European road show will be in September and as well as getting in a few training sessions at our City of London personal training gym, Charles may also be holding a one day strength and hypertrophy seminar so any if you who are interested in learning from one of the very best should please drop my assistant Caroline an email (Caroline@UPFitness.co.uk) and register your interest.
