Strength isn’t built by accident.

It’s built through proper coaching, good technique, and progressive training that actually makes sense.

If you’re 35+ and want to get properly strong again without wrecking your joints or wasting time, this is exactly how I coach.

Private gym. Coached lifting. Real progress.

If you’re local to Huddersfield, send me a message and we’ll book a free first session.

Strong at 50 wasn’t an accident.

Strength Training in Huddersfield with The Angry Vegan - Personal Training with Liam and Fran 🌱💪

03/01/2026

And we're back! After a fantastic Christmas and New Year break the gym reopens fully on Monday 5th.

Lots of new things coming this year, the Not Dead Yet kettlebell strength course will finally launch along with more dedicated free weight strength sessions with Fran, and our Nicky starting her own coaching journey, but in the meantime we're adding a few extra hours to our weeks so we can take on new personal coaching clients.

We've been coaching for 20 years now, Fran with her background as an NHS women’s health nurse practitioner specialising in helping women navigate the menopause and beyond, myself focussing on old school traditional strength training with free weights for men 35+ who have either never trained for strength or have been out of the gym for sometime.

We train in our own private gym, no new years chaos for us, it’s a calm, personal space dedicated to one to one coaching. Fully equipped with strength and conditioning, powerlifting and even strongman kit it has everything a public gym has - just without the hoards!

As always it’s first come first served, there are only so many hours in a week and once we’re full we’re full. We've made the maximum number of coaching hours available but once they’re gone that’s it.

However, we still work without contracts - people stay with us because they enjoy what we do and they get results, not because they’re tied into a contract - and your first session and consultation is free of charge.

Simply message us through here or email us direct to get your first no obligation session booked in.

'This time next year you'll wish you had started today'

Well it must be that time again, time to celebrate surviving another year! Time to recognise the wins and learn from the losses. Time to reassess our goals and where we’re going with life.

Tradition says we should make resolutions, promises to do things this coming year that we didn’t manage last year. Change our behaviours, our thoughts, our habits.

But what if this year your sole goal was to be happy?

What can you do this year to make the future you happier? To make life more enjoyable, easier, satisfying. To build a long term future where you are happy, confident and optimistic.

So before reeling off the same old tired resolutions that you do every year, take a bit of time to think. What is it you really want? What would make you happy? Really happy?

Wishing you a very Happy New Year from Fran, myself and everyone in the Angry Vegan team.

And another big end of year lift, this time from our Tony. 110kg stone to the 48” platform! He’s been chasing this lift for a long time so to hit it before the year ends is an amazing achievement.

Remember our gym is a tacky free zone which makes this lift considerably more impressive!

A fantastic end of year total for our Ian, it’s been a long time coming with several very close attempts but it is very well deserved. Hard work and consistency gets results, there’s no shortcuts.

Can’t even remember where I stole this from, but thought I’d post as it’s international chest day tomorrow. Always remember, safety first!

Become a PT they said, it’ll keep you young they said…

52 years old and I’m still going strong. I may have been considerably lighter and faster back in 2007 but the latest heavyweight version of me is immensely stronger! The years go by and the goals may change but the commitment and consistency remains the same, I reckon I’ve got another 18 years in me yet.

A bit of reminiscing this morning, this photo just popped in my memories. It’s the profile photo I used on the PT advertising board in Fitness First Pontefract back in 2007!

2007 saw the launch of Pontefract Kettlebells which then became Yorkshire Kettlebells, before we moved into our own gym Yorkshire Kettlebell Club. 18 years later I’m now The Angry Vegan however our gym is still called Yorkshire Kettlebell Club.

I’ve lived, I’ve learnt, but I am eternally grateful to be where I am today.

Thought I’d share some more of our feedback this sunny Sunday morning:

“Hands up, the BEST gym I’ve ever been to and would gladly recommend to anyone.

All the best and thanks Liam and Fran, you do an amazing job and helped me get stronger and enjoy lifting weight!! 😘”

Says it all really. We don’t claim to be good at everything, but we’re the best at what we do!
