Our Story

The Brothers

THE A2 Brothers

A2 was born on the back of two brothers with a love for a tough functional-style workout.

The sweaty, high-energy, ‘in it together’ workout followed by the post-session buzz had us hooked from the start and we’re sure it’ll be the same for you!

We’ve always had a love for sport & competition.

From a very young age, there was always a big sibling rivalry (despite the 5 year age gap!!)

We recall the days of full tackle rugby in our parents living room, the Olympic sprints round the supermarket and the intense games of FIFA.

We’ve grown up a little since then (not much though!) and we’ve used these traits successfully throughout our lives to keep moving forward, improving and just generally trying to be the best versions of ourselves.

This has included:

  • Playing Rugby Union for Yorkshire, England and various high-level clubs.
  • Attending prestigious universities and obtaining degrees in Physiotherapy, Sports Science and Business.
  • Several post-graduate qualifications relating to Functional Fitness, Physio and wider interests.

And ultimately, starting A2 Functional Fitness…

A chance for us to to share our knowledge of the enhancing human body thorough training with a community of like-minded high achieving individuals.
