MuscleSquad, an online fitness equipment store and community, has appointed leading PR agency The PHA Group with a press office brief. The brief spans business profiling, thought leadership, product placement, influencer engagement and case study placement.
MuscleSquad was launched in 2017 by budding entrepreneur Chris Billingham, with a product range that includes treadmills, squat racks, dumbbells and benches, amongst other fitness kit.
