Definition Gym

BLACK FRIDAY Unfortunately we won't be offering ridiculas cheap memberships. We don't won't to entice hundreds of people to join, promise to be your new best friend and offer you the world to then forget about you a week later because your just another number. We don't boast about being the best in the county or country, we don't follow the crowd we create our own ideas in the investments we make and the way the gym presents itself in attitude and looks. What Definition is o...ffering is this. We have re- invested into this gym with lots of new hammer strength gym equipment ,You guys and girls have invested into Definition and I have invested back into the gym. I pride my self in being a friendly tidy and well maintained gym for every one we have some top class athletes training at Definition gym that will also help you and guide you thanks again to you all regards Ash@Definition gym .

REASONS YOU DONT RE-RACK YOUR WEIGHTS :
YOUR MUM STILL PICKS UP AFTER YOU.
YOUR BETTER THAN EVERY ONE ELSE .
... YOU AIN’T GOT TIME FOR THAT .
YOUR BIG ENOUGH TO PICK IT UP YOUR BIG ENOUGH TO PUT IT BACK .
All I’m increasingly annoyed by this lack of respect for the people around you and my staff. I’m not pussy footing around with anyone, you will be told to put your weights away and if you don’t like it, it’s simple, leave and go somewhere else. I have heard all the shit ..... “it was there before I started” or I’ll leave and go somewhere else.....well please do, because I've got news for you, other gyms don’t like this either. Your more than welcome to go and join the (shit pound) gyms. I’m not whining it’s just simple respect. If I ask you more than a few times in future I’ll then ask you to leave. No one is bigger than the gym. Regards Ash .

Enjoy see you this week every one Ash-de-bear🐻

BACK (I’ll be back 😂) Following on from yesterday’s discussion on calves , and the incredible private message and txt response I thought I’d just do a short back session . Remember I’m old school bodybuilding, I haven’t won any shows who cares , there was a point when no one would train with me !! I don’t take no shit , if you want to chat or look at your phone then fook off. I take notice of you and what your doing . ....I’m from a background of hard core training
Wide gri...p pull downs 4 sets 6-10 reps I alternate these - one workout front next workout back .
Seated rows 3sets 6-10 reps In this exercise I do each rep slowly maintaining the tension. And always stretch the movement . At the bottom I let the lats stretch and I pull in very tight and I squeeze when I have the weight close to my waist .
Dumbbell or barbell bent over rows 3sets 6-8 reps Again I alternate between dumbbells and barbells from workout to workout . Train smart and have good form you can hurt your back very easily.
Close grip pull downs 3sets 10-12 reps I really like to burn this exercise because I look at it as a kind of finishing movement for the overall back.
Shrugs 3sets 6-10reps I like to maintain particular good form when I’m doing shrugs , i like to bring my shoulders up as high as I possibly can almost touching my ears and when I let weight down , I almost round my shoulders a little bit so the weight goes down as far as possible also I like to go heavy on this exercise as the heavy weight contributes to back thickness .
Caution Don’t overdo it there are a million different exercises . Find which works for you and stick to them , I like to stick to basics. Regards Ash Picture is of me before my major operation.

CALVES , (poor calves development)
“The ‘V’in calves stands for victory ‘’
Look at that guys arms !!, check out those pecs !! Fuck look at those puny calves !! His upper body should sue his calves for non support 😂😂😂... I’m going to give you two routines that I have used in over 30years of body building . # The Bear routine will shock your calves into new growth , and a high tolerance for pain. Remember to have a free calf machine and no one waiting as you perform this none stop 🛑
1 ...use a weight which you can perform 15 reps 2 .....then 8 more reps. 3 ......then burns which are short bouncy calve raises do about 15 of these. 4 .......now go up on both feet and come down on one for an additional 8 reps alternating the feet make sure you do this slowly about 6 seconds per rep , this is what I call negative emphasis training . You have now completed one set , if your not in searing pain and feel like a blow torch has been applied to them , then your super human !! 😂 then do the exact routine again !! do this routine for 2-3 weeks this routine serves to shock your calves. Calves should be kept off guard to shock them into constant new growth .
Calve routine for the average trainer still very effective.
Standing calve machine 4sets 15-20 reps
Donkey calve machine 3sets 25-30 reps
Inverted (old style)leg press calve 3 sets .... maximum reps
🐻 tips The leg extension can be used to work the tibialis .
Leg curls with pointed toes work the upper part of the calve attachment .
The hack squat machine can add variety to your calve workout .
Remember these calves have been holding you up since the moment you could walk ! Common mistakes . The use of too much weight resulting in too short a range of movement keeping the knees unlocked in standing calf raises. Etc This is just a little help try it if you don’t like it .....come and see me and I’ll put you through it Regards Ash

Big congratulations to Bart on his show today , well done Bart hard work plenty of dedication putting the hours in pays off Regards Ash

A few members at the gym have asked how I have trained over the 35 years. Just recently I have trained a few guys at the gym just for fun to give them a different look into different types of training. They love the insight into what they can achieve , they also like the hard core element of what I show them without destroying their bodies or their enthusiasm. I don’t have a phone on me or eat my lunch or breakfast whilst I train you . ......”I never do the same exercises f...rom workout to workout .... because I don’t want to give your body a chance to get used to my training “........as your attention to your workouts sharpens your training will become tighter and more productive. One of the most important rules for productive training is to pay attention to what your doing. The negative aspect of the rep is just as important as the positive aspect , in fact once you reach the ‘no gain stage It’s is more more important. I hope you like this little insight into my years of training Regards Ash .

Wow super Bank Holiday Monday Get to the gym 7am 15 people waiting to get in dedicated People 💪!! 0700 am-2130pm come on down

Definition gym members. What ever gym you have trained at or gym you have come from, it's every gyms rules to put your weights away and pick them up etc. There are ample tree stacks for every one to use. I will start asking you to leave Definition gym if this practice carries on. No body is bigger than the gym. These are our rules if you don’t like it, it’s quite simple ....... leave.

World Cup lucky dip . The winner was Dez Williams (Mufc) Dez picked out the winner France. Money raised was £60 from the tickets drawn. Definition gym will match the money to £120 , this will be added to Matt Weston’s empire gym fund raising for Sue Ryder Peterborough. I hope this meets your approval. Kind regards Ashley

I have shared this post sent to me from one of my members this rings very true up and down the country greedy corporate businessmen and women in the gym world .................its horrible seeing the amount of gyms selling off their entire contents. Someone's dream shattered because people often favour saving a fiver to line the pockets of corporations instead of supporting a local business, usually owned and ran by someone putting their blood sweat and tears into a place. S...omeone far more knowledgeable than a sweaty little ballbag that has never done anything of note. At A&O we are lucky. Our members make the gym, they can be called on for anything and anytime, that's the difference.
Independent gyms are the backbone of powerlifting, strongman, bodybuilding etc but we welcome everyone, ever seen the owner of Sportsdirect come out and coach you for free, travel the country to support you out of their own pockets? Business is hard and it sucks sometimes but I promise you, if you're in a leisure centre gym and you go to your local independent and sign up you will not only make those owners day you will achieve things you never thought possible. ...........Crazy amount of support from Ashley Aldred down at Def’s, for everybody, not just the crazy varied range of athletes down there. This post really rings true

The next batch of clothing is on its way. These have been professionally made by a company that produce clothing for top brands within the industry so the quality is top notch. Shipping is due in the next 10 days. We have gone for a different design and logo that fits with the vision of where the gym is heading.
