Friday Flex meets 1st Legion Fighters Gym

Added: Friday 26th July 2013 03:16:43 AM

It was a pleasure to welcome into the EAVA FM studios The 1St Legion Fighters. We were joined by Coach Jamie McManus and fighters Josh, Wade and Junior.

Date: June 14th 2013, Venue: EAVA FM Studios, Leicester.

Jamie discussed how the gym is set up to offer something different to people who want to train. A fighter himself, Jamie and his partners felt they could create a gym which would cater for people of all different fitness levels. Located in the centre of the city centre, the gym offers classes in MMA, Jiu Jitsu, strength and conditioning plus much more.

Jamie brought along with him his son Josh who was co-main eventing the MMA Battle Arena. Also gym fighters Wade from Leicester and Junior from Brazil came along. All three fighters were looking forward to fighting at the Battle Arena event.

Wade who is from Braunston explained how the gym has helped him learn about self discipline and focus. Junior who used to train Brazil said he liked training at the gym as he enjoyed the energy and the different styles taught at the gym. Josh used to watch his dads fights as a youngster and wanted to follow in his footsteps.

It was fantastic to see such young men so focussed, disciplined and dedicated to their training. This speaks volumes about how the gym treats its members. The Friday Flex team were looking forward to see how the guys would do at the Battle Arena event.

Jamie wanted to tell all people who are interested in training or just want to keep fit to come down to the gym to get a feel of what it is like.

We would like to thank Jamie and the boys for taking time out to visit us in the studio and looked forward to seeing them fight at MMA Battle Arena.
