In this video I’m on a proper road trip up the M5 to TBJP X SHED Gym in Cheltenham — James Hollingshead and Jordan Peters’ place — and I wanted to see if it genuinely lives up to all the hype. I walk you through what matters to me on a hardcore gym tour: the kit, the layout, the atmosphere, the lighting, the music, and whether you can actually train like a bodybuilder without it feeling sterile. Straight away, the natural light, the mix of old-school and new-school machines, and the overall energy inside the gym hit the mark. We also got lucky and ended up training back with the big man himself, James. It was a brutal, no-nonsense session built around basics — pulldowns, T-bar rows, seated cable rows, and deadlifts — because if you want a thick, dense back, you don’t dodge the compounds. James breaks down how they picked the equipment (stuff they’ve used firsthand in other gyms and even places like Metroflex in Texas), how the gym’s already evolving, and what they’re planning next with extra space, a posing room, and treatment rooms. If you’re in the area and you want a serious bodybuilding environment, this is a must-visit.
