In a previous post, we featured an exclusive interview with Neil Adams MBE<\/a>, a legendary figure in British judo. Neil, hailing from Rugby, Warwickshire, boasts an illustrious career as a five-time European champion, 1981 world champion, and a two-time Olympic silver medalist. Now in his 60s, Neil continues to leave his mark on the sport through his commentary, which you can catch at this year’s Paris Games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n As the world watches the current global sports events<\/a>, it\u2019s a perfect time to revisit our inspiring interview with Ellie Natasha-Baker from last year. Ellie\u2019s journey is not only about her impressive achievements but also about the innovative training setup that has significantly contributed to her success. To support Ellie’s success, Fitshop<\/a> supplied her home gym with equipment specially chosen for her needs. In this piece, we explore Ellie\u2019s story and the impact of her personalised home gym on her training and performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Fitshop have helped me massively already.

I can really utilise my gym and that will be really beneficial to my training, just having that equipment there is invaluable.<\/p>Ellie Natasha-Baker, Professional British Athlete<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n Ellie: Having a gym right on my doorstep has been a game-changer. I can fit my workouts into my schedule without any excuses. It’s incredibly beneficial for my training to have everything I need at home. The convenience and quality of the equipment are invaluable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ellie: My home gym is very bespoke to my training needs, much like my coach’s gym. I do a lot of squats, so I have a squat rack. For plyometric jumps and step-ups, I have plyometric boxes. I even use them for hip thrusts. Everything is tailored to help me train effectively at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ellie: I focus on a variety of exercises. Squats with the squat rack, kettlebell swings, and arm conditioning with dumbbells. I also do all my core workouts on the bench and calf conditioning with the seated calf machine. Each piece of equipment plays a crucial role in my routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ellie: The installation was fantastic. The Fitshop team came in, set everything up in a couple of hours, and it was so smooth. I was thrilled with how perfectly everything was done. Seeing it all come together was really exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ellie: The quality is absolutely incredible. It’s made such a difference in my training. I highly recommend Fitshop to anyone looking to set up a home gym. The whole experience, from installation to daily use, has been amazing.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow has having a home gym impacted your training?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
