As a reminder, tomorrow is our August Faith RxŌĆÖD meeting at ION Strength and Conditioning in Llanishen, beginning at 3PM. We would love to have you come along for a cracking workout and a encouraging, thought provoking word afterward. We look forward to seeing tomorrow.

**Poor Posture & Upper Cross Syndrome**
We see on a regular basis New Members come through the doors, struggle with Mobility often caused by poor posture.
Poor Posture can be a result of poor daily habits commonly seen in todayŌĆÖs society - a lot of individuals sit hunched over a desk or in a car for long periods of the day resulting in ŌĆśslouchedŌĆÖ internally rotated shoulders and constant flexion of the thoracic (mid back) spine region.
... As a result of this common postural issue known as ŌĆśUpper Cross SyndromeŌĆÖ members will often struggle in exercises involving overhead or front rack positions.
ItŌĆÖs hugely important that these postural issues are addressed, otherwise repetitive improper movement patterns will result in over compensation of other areas and eventually lead to pain and injury.
That is why we encourage members to include Thoracic Extension Exercises as part of their daily routine, not just within the gym as part of the workouts but where opportunities allow during the working day to help correct and prevent poor posture.
Good Thoracic Extension is important not only for good posture, but also to prevent neck, shoulder, upper back, lower back and even hip pain.
If members donŌĆÖt have proper Thoracic Extension, your body is going to take the path of least resistance and seek out extra extension from other areas ŌĆō areas that may not have the ability to provide the extension needed and therefore become overworked and injured.
One of our easiest recommended Thoracic Extension exercises to members that can be performed anywhere, multiple times a day is the good old ŌĆśCow-CatŌĆÖ.
If you feel you suffer from Upper Cross Syndrome speak to a coach for a few basic exercises to do routinely as well as Cow-Cat that will help with certain muscle imbalances.
We will do a film in the next day or so that is quick, simple and easy to follow that will help correct common deficiencies.

What a brilliant box and great guys and girls who run and enjoy the box. Made everyone feel welcome which is what Crossfit is all about. The computation Was set for all levels which was really nice. We will meet again ­¤śü­¤śü­¤śü­¤śü

Top staff. Top equipment. The best thing is the atmosphere in the box during a spicy WOD, and the coaches really do make you feel part of the crew.

Top gym, fantastic coaches. All very approachable and knowledgable. Make you feel welcome from the moment you enter. Highly recommend

This place has completely changed me! It's helped me lose alot of weight and focus on getting the little things right. I cannot recommend this place enough to everyone. As soon as you enter the box you'll be hooked. They are very welcoming and give you the tools to get results!

The best gym I have been to. All the coaches are fantastic, supportive and professional helping everyone to develop at their own level. The lessons are varied to develop strength and stamina as well as nutritional advice. Highly recommended

Such a great training environment. I have been a member now for 6 months and loved every second of it. Such an encouraging team and and the coaches are ace - always striving to get me to the best of my ability

Robin Is The Boy!! End of. This new facility is absolutely quality, offering a great range of physically demanding classes that will put anyone to the test. More importantly though, the values and philosophies that have been installed over the years by Robin, Mike, all the coaches and more importantly the members is second to none, making it an awesome place to go and train, socialise/ hang out and have FUN while you train. All the best!!

It's the first time in a long time that I look forward to doing exercise. A great team of fitness experts, a very welcoming environment culminating in a really nice vibe and great support to help you focus on your fitness goals. I've not experienced this anywhere else.

It's a top notch facility. Friendly, knowledgeable and engaging coaches. The members are encouraging and non-judgmental. There are occasionally questionable music choices, but that's purely subjective I suppose.



It's fast becoming one of my favourite places to be. I'm fitter and stronger than I've ever been and I've only been a member for a few months.

ION honestly is a special place . It makes you want to do it for lifestyle... people are amazing and they help you every step of the way to achieve your best. I am in the best shape I have even been having joined only 4 months ago. I am looking forward to my time ahead and with the help of great coaches like, Jonny, Mike, Robin, Adam and more ... it's incredible how supportive and helpful they are in maximising your potential.. I strongly recommend joining... this place is for everyone ....

I started training at ION in November and I wish I'd discovered it years ago. I love the crossfit concept, and the structure that allows beginners like me to work alongside incredibly fit and experienced athletes in the same class- with everybody doing as much as they are capable of. Robin, Mike and their team of coaches are absolutely awesome - helpful, friendly, and endlessly patient. But best of all are the other members - ION is a real community of like minded souls who support and encourage each other to do the very best they can. If you want a gym where you're treated as a valuable human being and not just a number on the subscription list then ION Strength and Conditioning is definitely the place to go!!

I simply love this place. The coaches are fantastic, they are really encouraging and great at keeping you motivated, plus they really know their stuff! The atmosphere is brilliant and everyone is welcoming, friendly and helpful. I can't believe how much I've gained from coming here over the past year, fitter, stronger, healthier, happier me!

Having experienced many training/fitness environments and competitive sports programmes I can easily say that this is undoubtedly one of the best. Amazing atmosphere for both beginners and competitive athletes. With great coaches all from top sporting backgrounds you will certainly get the quality of coaching you require.

If your looking to improve on any aspects of your fitness goals wether it's Olympic lifting, increased endurance/stamina, general fitness or competing in crossfit or just fancy a change then I would definitely recommend dragon!

Genuinely can't recommend this place enough. It offers great strength & conditioning training for all abilities & ages in a fun & relaxed environment. Not only will you get fitter & stronger but you also won't recognise yourself after a month of training here ­¤Æ¬ ­¤śŖ

Came down for the Heavyweight Throwdown!! The ION facility is fantastic and the people and atmosphere during this event were amazing :) Will be back again!!

By far the best gym I have ever been to. Great coaches, great facilities, great programming and great music!

Brilliant place and great coaches. When I first went I couldn't do a single handstand press up, double under or muscle up. Thanks for all your encouragement and support guys.

An unbelievably good training environment with friendly but expert coaches and fantastic facilities. Joining Ion is up there with the best things I've ever done!

An amazing place to go if your starting out in crossfit, powerlifting or going to the gym in general. Full of lovely people, coaches and members.
