Progressive overload still works.
Turning up consistently still works.
Training alongside people who take it seriously still works.

This carousel shows less than half of our gym.

What you’re seeing here is real training space, specialist equipment, and rooms built for people who actually want to progress — not just tick a box.

We’ve put together one of the most complete bodybuilding and strength setups in the area, with kit you won’t find in commercial gyms.

If you’ve ever felt like:
• your gym is too busy
• the equipment doesn’t feel right
• or you’ve outgrown where you train

Everyone feels it before they walk through the door.
That little bit of nerves.
The worry that you won’t know what you’re doing.
That everyone else will be watching.

The truth is, that feeling disappears fast.

Most people in here are just focused on their own session.
Setting the kit up.
Doing the work.
Getting better, bit by bit.

You don’t need to be confident to start.
You just need to start.

Somewhere just slightly out of sync with the real world, there’s a little pocket dimension that looks suspiciously like a gym.

A crew gathers there most days.
All different. All characters.
None of them aware they’re part of the same story.

Everyone’s on their own quest.
Some chasing strength. Some chasing progress.
Some just trying to remember why they walked into the room in the first place.

The rules are simple here.
Train hard. Don’t act like a k**b.
If you drop a weight, you pick it up and carry on like nothing happened.

There’s a dog too.
He patrols the realm.
Offers silent judgement. Accepts ear scratches as tribute.

Time behaves strangely in this place.
Music jumps genres. Conversations go off on tangents.
Set numbers are… flexible.

It’s not a gym.
It’s a separate dimension where effort matters, egos don’t,
and everyone somehow ends up better than when they arrived.

If you know, you know.

In the UK, anything not commonly eaten before 1997 is classed as a novel food. To legally sell it, a company now has to submit a full safety dossier to the Food Standards Agency. That means toxicology data, stability data, human usage evidence and a long approval process.

Here’s the key point:
that process costs a fortune. We’re talking hundreds of thousands of pounds and years of waiting.

So when you see things like cordyceps, turkey tail, lion’s mane extracts, or other niche ingredients disappearing, it’s not because they’ve suddenly become unsafe. It’s because small brands can’t afford the approval process.

This is why my claim is simple:
👉 Over the next couple of years, most small or innovative supplement ingredients will effectively be wiped out in the UK.

At Sups Gym, I genuinely believe we’ve got two of the best bicep curl machines in the world.

First up is the preacher curl. This is all about control and precision. With multiple loading positions, you can choose where the resistance hits hardest. One setting overloads the stretched position, another targets the middle of the rep, and another biases the peak contraction. It means you’re not just curling weight for the sake of it – you’re loading the exact part of the movement you want to improve. From a muscle-building point of view, that’s a huge advantage. Perhaps the number one bicep machine.

Then you’ve got the single-arm preacher, and this thing is special. The handle path opens the arm up and naturally supinates the palm as you curl, which lines the bicep up perfectly. You get heavy tension right from the stretch, and it doesn’t disappear at the top either. The peak contraction is brutal, and the pump is unreal. Because it’s single arm, there’s nowhere to hide – each side works on its own and gets exactly what it deserves.

If I had to crown a king of single-arm preacher curls, the Gymleco takes it. But paired together, these two machines cover every angle of bicep development properly.

This is the difference between average kit and world-class kit.

How will you get on the kit?

Well actually we have the least members to kit ratio out of any gym in Weston by far!

Pure has 10 times the members we do, even anytime before it shut had over double.

Yet our kit is the best quality (and most expensive by far).

Simply put people want to fit us in a box… and it’s just not true.

is showing how simple our kit actually is to use. People often think the equipment here is going to be complicated, but once someone walks you through it, you realise it’s easier than the stuff you’ve been fighting with at commercial gyms. And if you’re already spending £70 a month somewhere with no proper hack squat, no real strength kit, and a sauna that’s out of service every other week… you may as well train somewhere that actually gives you what you pay for.

Most of our members mainly lift weights anyway, so instead of wasting time on machines that don’t hit properly, come down and let one of our PTs show you how to use world-class equipment that actually works. You’ll save money, save time, and stop holding yourself back with kit that was never designed for serious progress.

If you’re ready to train on the best equipment in Weston-super-Mare, we’ll show you exactly how to use everything from day one. Just get started.

A lot of people still tell me they were scared to come down to Sups Gym for the first time. And honestly, every single member we have now once felt exactly the same. You walk past the doors, hear the plates, see the machines, and think it’s only for the elite. But the truth is you’ll be training alongside people just like you – people who want to improve, feel better, and push themselves a bit further each week.

Yes, it’s a serious gym. That’s why it works. The atmosphere raises your standards without anyone judging you. Most people realise quickly that it’s actually more welcoming than the commercial gyms they came from. And the kit… it’s on another level. The quality here is miles ahead of anything else in Weston-super-Mare, and once you’ve trained on proper equipment, you’ll feel the difference instantly.

Every day you wait is another day stuck using kit that holds you back. Don’t punish yourself for no reason. Come down, get shown around, and you’ll soon wonder why you were ever nervous. Most people end up calling Sups their second home.

The morning crew at Sups Gym always sets the pace for the day. I love seeing that mix of people walking in before most of Weston-super-Mare has even opened its eyes. You’ve got professionals squeezing in a solid session before work, groups of lads pushing each other, and women of all ages training with real intent. Some are running through their own plans, others are with their PTs, but everyone is here for the same reason — to improve.
