Through its network of seven high performance centres across England, the UK Sports Institute is able to provide athletes and coaches with access to high quality facilities that are specifically designed for elite athletes. Sheffield is one of these facilities which caters for a variety of sports including: Boxing, Diving and Paralympic Table Tennis.At the end of the Paris Olympics it was decided to invest in the facility at Sheffield to make it more accessible for Paralympic athletes, upgrade the flooring and replace some of the pieces of equipment. PB were selected due to design concept, product knowledge, user knowledge and customisation options. A number of bespoke design features were integrated into certain pieces of equipment.The equipment installed included:Elite Power Racks x4, Rack Integrated Smith x2, Rack Integrated Pulleys x2, Elite Glute Ham x2, 45 degree Dual Leg Press, Seated Leg Extension/CurlBelt Squat, Modular Storage systems between Racks, Ecore Performance Flooring, Branded Lifting Platforms.The UKSI, in collaboration with Perform Better, successfullycompleted the refurbishment of the UKSI Elite Training Centre gym at the English Institute of Sport Sheffield. PB played an integral role in both the planning and delivery of this project, ensuring the creation of a modern, high-performance environment tailored to the needs of our athletes and S&C staff.During the planning phase, the PB team provided invaluable guidance on the design and layout of the gym. Their expertise helped align the space with our primary goal of enhancing accessibility for our Paralympic athletes. This involved thoughtful integration of features such as a level flooring solution, space-efficient rack and storage systems.PB sourced and manufactured bespoke equipment to meet the specific requirements of our S&C coaches and athletes. The quality of the equipment is exceptional, and it has significantly elevated the functionality and aesthetics of the new gym space. These elements combined to create an environment that supports high-performance training while maintaining accessibility and efficiency. The delivery of the project was seamless, with PB demonstrating exceptional professionalism throughout. They adhered to our targeted timelines and were flexible in accommodating adjustments as the project progressed. We are thrilled with the outcome and highly recommend Perform Better for anyone undertaking a gym design or refurbishment project.
