'The Box'

We are not mainstream trainers. At ‘The Box’ we don’t care about image the latest gadget or fitness fad. What we do is TRAIN & TRAIN hard for performance. And we think that matters. The thing is, real performance based fitness is endangered; you might find that hard to believe? After all the number of commercial gym members is astounding. And everyday at around 6pm the globo gyms are packed with people prancing around in their brand new Gucci kit trying to improve their well being or look good for their holiday three weeks before they go.

Unfortunately, few if any of them are truly training in away that will cause any type of physical adaptation. What they are doing is a half hearted type of movement that has as about as much in common with true fitness as pissing in the wind. And with all that prancing about half hearted nonsense the human race is losing its soul, a soul that started with our ancestors running down dinner!

REAL FITNESS was predatory to its core then, and is predatory to its core now, and globo trainers are our prey. ‘Box’ athletes are hunters! So if you are or become a ‘Box’ athlete revel in the fact that you sit firmly at the top of the ‘Real fitness’ food chain. So train like an animal.
