Cube Weightlifting Academy

What a fantastic first day at the English Weightlifting Championships!
Jayden is now English Champion having won gold 🥇
He also helped out loading after his competition. It’s nice that he wants to be part of the sport in all aspects
... Rosie had a fantastic competition in a very competitive group. She came 5th in a group of 11 strong and very experienced lifters. To say she has not been lifting at this level for even a year yet, that podium won’t be at her finger tips for very much longer, it’ll be well and truly under her feet! 🏆
Looking forward to our master weightlifter Gareth’s competition tomorrow 🏋🏻

There is no WOW on this morning sorry for any inconvenience .

Great session for our newest members, who have received so much help and support from the other members.
After only a few sessions Harley and Ethan are starting to become more independent on the platform. They should be competition ready in no time!
Freya and Alisha were working on their technique tonight, and were starting to think about their own start position checks and keeping the bar close in the lifts. They finished with deadlifts and both girls are already lifting ab...ove their own body weight!
Well done to everyone else, especially Hayden and Rosie for their last sessions at the clubs before competing this weekend

Looking forward to another fab HIIT weights tomorrow. Spaces available get in touch or just come along .

Busy sessions tonight, starting with the under 11 girls aiming for yet more PBs in their clean and jerk.
The progress of these girls is really coming in and they have become great training buddies.
While the girls were doing their cleans, Harley and Ewan were working on their snatch technique. Both are doing fantastic and are determined to get it right each time.
... Then for the other sessions, was great to see the under 15s training with the adults. It was great to welcome Andy in again.
It was also great to see our coach Josh training with Andy and hitting the big weights 💪🏻

We are so lucky to have such a lovely community at our club...
Ilyana came to the club today when Josh was coaching to surprise him with a present she had made him- a photo frame with pictures and messages for Josh
Ilyana wanted to do this because she had seen how Josh was upset recently as he recently lost his dad.
... And, well, as she was at the club, we thought she might as well train!....and she only hit her second snatch PB this week!
So Josh wanted to say a huge thank you to Ilyana for her gift to make him feel better. It was a very thoughtful gift which she clearly put a lot of effort into it. She really does have a big heart and we love having Ilyana part of our gym family ❤️

It was great to provide another private session for some crossfitters today.
They were looking to work on their jerk technique for a CrossFit competition that is coming up, which has a 1RM split jerk in it.
So, in fine tuning their rack position, dip, bar path and final positioning, they even went home with some PBs!
... It’s great to be part of the CrossFit community and be able to provide these kind of sessions. It’s a honour for us to be known as the specialists in Olympic weightlifting and work with some great athletes
Looking forward to working with Lisa, Mark, Andrew and Emma in the future...and good luck with the competition!

What a busy day it has been today! The gym was packed out and there was such a great atmosphere!
Well done to Natalie, who after just 3 sessions has already made some real progress! Looking forward to her starting to hit bigger and bigger numbers.
Well done to the Stewart family, we don’t know what they are eating in that house but Michelle, Adam and Isaac all got PBs ! 💪🏻
... Then the lads decided that they wanted to set up their own Instagram to share their own videos and pictures about their training and progress. This meant getting a good profile picture of them all lifting the bar! Lol.
After the session we got to meet Erin and Mark who have recently started coaching CrossFit at the Fitness Rooms that they have set up. They wanted to fine tune their technique in weightlifting and gain some extra knowledge. We are looking forward to working with them more in the future!

Another fantastic night of training tonight, with the new platform being a hit with our younger athletes (and Jayden just had to do his fortnight dance on it! Lol)
Looking forward to receiving the rest of the Eleiko equipment to arrive as this new platform as certainly boosted the positive vibes in the club!
Well done to everyone who hit or attempted a new PB, even it it was just to get some free food from Cube Eat! Lol 🍕

You need to go everyone

This is amazing place to go my boys go and they love it i now go and I love it

Kids class is absolutely fantastic! Josh is a fantastic coach and makes it fun for the kids whilst working on their technique.

Josh is a very wise and patient coach, he makes small changes that make a big difference. He also leads by example and still lifts well despite being a ol' timer. If you go to cube fit expect excellent hospitality (including coffee and dried fruit in your rest breaks ) hard work and a nice bunch of straight forward people around you.

I've been at cube fit for a few months and its been one of the best times overall I've done weight lifting for nearly two years and swapped through 3 gyms including cube fit and it has been my favourite and always will be.

I have had the pleasure to meet and train if only for a short period with Josh Moshavi. Today I was placed 2nd behind the 2015 British Master Champion and am now the proud owner of the 2016 silver medal.

It is without doubt the training programme and guidance offerred to me by Josh leading up to this event that has contributed to my success.

Thank you Josh, it's a real pleasure to have met such a fine chap as yourself.

I absolutely love it at Cube!! Now I know I'm a little biased now that I've started using the gym as my PT base, but I originally started going for my own training. I was instantly welcomed and had a great time training with the other members and under Josh's supervision. This has honestly been one of the friendliest places I've trained, with such a supportive atmosphere. Josh is a great coach too; very patient and knowledgeable. Can't recommend this place enough for wanting to learn from the best when it comes to Olympic weightlifting and be part of a great team!

First time I’ve tried weightlifting and I absolutely love it! Excellent and patient coach, couldn’t recommend enough!

Cube Academy are amazing, my two children have only been training afew months with Josh and Tina and the progress already is fantastic! My oldest child tried all sorts of sports but nothing suited him until we found Cube; his confidence and enthusiasm are all down to the fab coaching. Would 100% recommend anyone to go and try!

Brilliant kids session last night, girls and boys, all trying their utmost, following the fantastic coaching of Josh Mosavi and Tina Shaw. This is one of those special, unique places that I feel genuinely privileged to a part thereof. Have no hesitation, whatever your age, child, adult or senior, this IS the place to train. Olympic Weightlifting records will be broken by lifters from Cube Fit, be part of it, it's the best family atmosphere you'll find outside of the home!

As a complete beginner looking for a new challenge and a way to gain strength, I started attending classes at The Cube around 2 months ago; the best decision I’ve made in ages! I cannot recommend the place enough.I’ve learnt so much in such a short period of time thanks to the excellent knowledge,teaching and support from both the coaches and my peers. It’s a great club with a welcoming feel. Don’t hesitate to try it out, you’ll be well looked after!
