☀️ Summer Is Here
What a month it’s been!
June has been one of our busiest months yet. Between the heatwave, packed classes, new members joining, community events and plenty of personal achievements, it’s been fantastic to see everyone continuing to show up and put the work in.
Training in hot weather isn’t easy, so thank you to everyone who’s adjusted, stayed hydrated and kept turning up. Consistency always beats perfection, and this month has been a great example of that.
🏃 Running Workshop Returns
Our first running workshop with Mel was such a success that we’re bringing it back.
Sunday 19th July – 10am to 12pm with Coach Mel.
This session will be even more in-depth, focusing on:
- Running gait and technique analysis
- Individual movement assessments
- Strength training for runners
- Plyometric exercises to improve efficiency and reduce injury risk
- Practical drills you can take straight into your training
Whether you’re training for your first 5K, a marathon or simply want to become a stronger runner, this workshop is for you.
Spaces will be limited, so keep an eye on TeamUp to book your place.
🌟 Member of the Month – Mark T
A huge congratulations to Mark T, our Member of the Month.
As a busy dad of two young children, Mark somehow found the time to complete an incredible challenge-hiking up Snowdon three times to raise money for Barnardo’s charity.
42km in 13hrs and 58 Mins – with a total of 3000m elevation.
It perfectly represents what DELTS Gym is all about.
Fitness isn’t about being the fastest or strongest in the room. It’s about using your health and fitness to achieve amazing things outside the gym and inspiring those around you.
Congratulations Mark – we’re all incredibly proud of you.
🫀 VO₂ Max Testing
We’re excited to be introducing VO₂ Max Testing at DELTS Gym.
Understanding your aerobic fitness gives you a much clearer picture of your health, endurance and training zones, allowing us to tailor your programming with even greater accuracy.
Whether your goal is performance, longevity, weight loss or simply becoming fitter, this is a fantastic tool to measure progress beyond the scales.
More information and booking dates will be released soon.
💪 Summer Bootcamp
Throughout the summer we’ll be running our Saturday Summer Bootcamp in partnership with the Old Cranleighans Hockey Club. Saturday 8.30am – Free for any Delts Gym Member or friend of Delts Gym. Kids are welcome to join with their parents.

👨👩👧 Kids’ PT Sessions
School holidays are approaching, so we’re launching our Kids’ PT Sessions.
These sessions are designed to help young people:
- Build confidence in the gym
- Learn safe lifting techniques
- Improve athleticism – sport related training.
- Develop healthy passion for sport and fitness
We’ll also be offering Summer PT Packs for children and teenagers looking to stay active over the holidays.
If you’d like more information, simply speak to one of the coaching team.
🎉 Supporting Our Local Schools
A big thank you to all the local schools we’ve had the pleasure of supporting over the past few months.
Western Green School – Thames Ditton Jnrs and Infant Schools – Rowan to name a few.
We’ve loved sponsoring school events, donating prizes and welcoming many prize winners into the gym to begin their fitness journey.
Building healthier communities starts with encouraging young people to enjoy movement, and we’re proud to play a small part in that.
👀 Looking Ahead
The months of July and August are shaping up to be an incredibly exciting period for us all.
Together, we are continuing to build something truly special. We are taking things to a whole new level with a growing community of new members, a fresh coaching team, and the upcoming launch of our brand-new programming this September. On top of that, we have even more community events on the horizon.
Thank you for being a vital part of DELTS Gym, and we look forward to seeing you training with us soon.
