Dave’s “all star” rugby debut

Dave Thomas

Foundry Co-owner and strength coach Dave “I would have made it as an international rugby player if it hadn’t been for my niggly ……insert body part here…..” Thomas, under illusions of grandiour, naivety and a unsatiable desire for a second shot at the big time, will be playing in a team of ex-internationals for the Wooden Spoon XV in a game against the Croydon School Of Hard Knocks XV as coached by the rugby performance boys.

The game will be televised on Sky Sports for the latest series of School of Hard Knocks and all are very welcome to attend.  Come and meet some of the greats of the game, see how rugby and sport can help build confidence and get lives back on track, learn a little bit more about conditioning for rugby…and grab a beer.

Further details below. Contact helen@foundryfit.com to join the Foundry crew at this fantastic event.

Weight lifting??

At The Foundry, we love a bit of weight training and are all for fitness enthusiasts taking the bull by the horns and doing independent exercise away from our outstanding trainers (but then again, why would you want to??).

In anticipation of “Weight Lifting Wednesdays”, a new series of articles on correct weightlifting technique from Rick, our osteopath / personal trainer / nutritionist, we thought we’d treat you to a corking video on how NOT to pump iron.

Dear oh dear….

Marketing Training



We like to encourage everyone involved in The Foundry to keep up their fitness training so we thought we’d share a little snapshot of what life is like for our marketing interns.  Poor old Jacques unfortunately agreed to train with Tyrone. Nice gurning!
