UK Bulgarian bag championships 
@commandotemple in Deptford, SE London
Sunday 4th October 2026

If you've met me you've probably heard of Bulgarian bags 😂😂🥐🥐

For those unfamiliar you can see them in action here ❤️

We're hosting a competition in October centred around the leather croissants. It will be our second!

Last year was so awesome - we had a live band, DJ, athletes from all over the world, and of course all of us were subjected to one of the best and most brutal fitness challenges. Expect even more this year!

Like last year, this year's comp will involve the VIB challenge (you get one attempt at performing maximum spins on a 38kg/22kg for men/women)

Then during the main event - muscular endurance - athletes have to perform maximum spins, swing squats, snatches, squat and press then spin/arm throw for 6/5/4/3/2min with 1min rest between. The winner has the biggest overall total.

All levels welcome as there are different bag weights.

If you’re looking for a no-nonsense strength training gym in London, they don’t come much better than the Commando Temple!
 
They have an un-matched range of training tools and a great team of trainers at hand to show you how to use them.
 
Was a pleasure to join the team for their famous GRIP CLUB workout this week!
 
Let me know what you think, is there a better strength training gym in the UK? ⬇️

This is a typical morning at The Commando Temple.

Different abilities. Different bodies. Different goals.
Same energy. Same grit. Same commitment to showing up.

Coaches coaching. Members pushing. People discovering what they’re capable of — sometimes for the very first time.

No egos. No templates. No “one-size-fits-all.”
Just everyday people doing extraordinary things… together.

And the truth is — once you’ve experienced this, everywhere else just feels a bit… average.

THIS is how we do mornings.

Muay Thai at Commando Temple

Train at our Muay Thai fight club in Deptford, South London—attached to an award-winning strength facility.

Known as the “Art of Eight Limbs,” Muay Thai uses punches, elbows, knees, and kicks. But for those who train it, it’s more than a sport—it’s discipline, resilience, and a way to push your limits.

Whether you’re new or experienced, you’ll build real skills, improve strength, endurance, and confidence, and be part of a supportive, hard-working community.

Strength. Skill. Fight fitness.
