The fitness industry is pretty good at convincing us that MORE = better.

More workouts. More intensity.
Push harder. Sweat more.

We don't really see it that way 🙅🏼‍♀️

Sometimes getting more from your strength training isn't about doing more at all.

It's improving how well you move.
Your range. Control. Stability.

The things that help you train better, and feel more capable outside the gym too.

We kept seeing our members needing more of that.

So instead of telling them to “do more stretching and mobility at home” 😂 we built it into what we do.

That's where 'Move Well' came from.

We're not trying to make people better at the gym.
We're using the gym to make them better equipped for life.

Strong enough. Mobile enough. Capable enough to keep doing the things they love for a bloody long time 💪🏼

How was your first Move Well session??

70kg is awesome.

But this is the bit we love more, what we're really celebrating 🥳

The transformation that happens because of getting stronger...

When Simone first started strength training with us, she said she “wasn't really sure what I was capable of.”

She didn't even want to walk through the front door.

This week she saw 70kg on the bar and thought… I want to have a shot at that.

And she did it. 🥹

That's what getting stronger can do.
It's not just adding more weight to the bar.
It's slowly changing the way you see yourself.

From I don't know if I can…
to I reckon I'll give it a go.

And then sometimes…
holy s**t, I actually did it 😱

Simone says she feels stronger and more confident now, and more willing to see what she's capable of.

That's the win.

Not that every woman needs to deadlift 70kg.
That there's something pretty bloody powerful about becoming a person who backs herself and has the confidence to try.

The opportunities and experiences you get because of that changes lives 💪🏼

Making time to look after ourselves when life gets really busy.

Yep. Us too 😂

We're definitely not the people to tell you we've nailed the whole work/life/parenting/looking-after-yourself thing 🫠

Between kids, running a business and all the normal life stuff, there are definitely times when exercise, eating well, getting enough sleep and looking after our own health could very easily be the first things to go.

But here's something we've learnt (and still have to remind ourselves of)…

The things we drop when we're busy are often the exact things that help us handle the busy 🤯

When we look after ourselves, we have more energy, patience and capacity for everything else.

We're better parents. Better partners. Better leaders.

And we have more to give the people around us.

So if life feels particularly full right now, don't make “looking after yourself” another massive thing you need to get right.

Ask yourself:
What's ONE thing I tend to drop when I'm busy that actually helps me feel better?

Maybe it's a walk.
Training a couple of times this week.
Eating breakfast.
Getting to bed earlier.
Getting outside for half an hour.

Pick one and put that back in.

You don't need to wait for life to calm down.
You need something that helps you handle life while it's busy 🫶🏼

Because sometimes it gets to 3pm, you're starving, school pick-up is just around the corner, and you realize you have nothing to eat again!

These are a couple of things I'd happily grab.

But the useful bit isn't really the exact products.
When I'm choosing something on the run, I'm generally thinking:

Can I get some protein in?
Will it give me some energy?
Will it actually satisfy me until my next meal?
And do I actually like it?

I'm not searching for the lowest calorie option or the packet that looks the most “healthy”

I'm just trying to give my body something useful and get on with my day.

Because eating well as a busy mum isn't always going to look like perfectly prepped food from home.

Sometimes it's standing in the supermarket thinking “sh*t, I'm hungry” and knowing how to make a pretty good choice 😂

Save this for the next time that's you.

And tell me, should I do more quick supermarket snacks, or or emergency dinners next?

Jordan spoke to a woman today who said something we hear pretty often…

“I'm just not a gym person. I don't like gyms.”

And fair enough. Maybe gyms genuinely aren't for her.

But it made me wonder how many other women around Geelong have ruled themselves out before they've even started because somewhere along the way they've decided…

“That's just not me.”

Because I used to think the same thing 🙋🏼‍♀️

Don't get me wrong I loved sport and being active, but gyms felt intimidating 😬

I didn't feel confident walking into one and definitely didn't feel like I knew what I was doing.

And I could give you a pretty long list of Impact members who would've once said exactly the same.

Women who now strength train consistently.
Feel confident walking through the doors.
Get excited about getting stronger.
And even look forward to coming 🤩

So maybe “I'm not a gym person” isn't something you need to decide about yourself forever.

Maybe you just haven't found your way of doing it yet.

Impact crew, help me out with this one...

Were you always someone who enjoyed the gym and exercise?
Or what would the old you have said? 👇

I reckon there are a few women reading who need to hear your answers. 🤍

I'm sure I'm not alone here, but there was a time when I thought feeling better about my body meant I needed to change it.

That the point of exercising was to change your appearance.
I weighed myself daily.
I'd pick up a food packet and look straight at the calories and carbs like that was the most important information.

I've done a lot of work and learnt to change my beliefs around this, but still after working in fitness with Women for nearly 10 years I still see this mindset in others.

I still have days where I don't particularly love how my body looks.

The difference is... it doesn't hold the same importance anymore.

I care so much more about being strong.
About what my body can do.
About having energy for my life and being able to do the things I love.

And beyond my body, just being a good person and having a positive impact on the world.

But when thoughts about my appearance inevitably creep in, I'm much better at recognising it for what it is rather than letting it dictate how I eat, exercise or feel about myself.

That's a pretty bloody freeing place to get to.

Something I want more women to experience.

And a big part of why we do things differently here at Impact Movement Co in Geelong.

To exercise because it makes you feel good.
To get excited about strength training and becoming stronger.
To eat in a way that supports your body without obsessing over every number.

Because, when exercise is viewed as a tool to change your appearance we completely undervalue what it can actually do for us.

We're here to change that.

It might surprise you that all of the women sitting around this table didn't start with us as coaches.

They started as members.
They had their own first day.
Their own nerves.
Their own reasons for wanting to make a change.

I remember meeting each of them for the first time, most with their own doubts and moments of “I don't know if I can do this.”

They got stronger, built confidence and along the way, exercise became something they actually wanted in their lives.

The thing that made everything else feel a little easier.

They found themselves again.

And eventually, they wanted to help other women of Geelong experience that too.

I think that's a pretty big part of why our gym feels the way it does.

Because if you're looking at them now thinking “easy for them, they're gym people"

They weren't always.
They've been on the other side of it.

And maybe that's exactly why they're so bloody good at what they do.

They know what it can feel like to start.
And they know the impact finding the right people and environment can have.

Now they get to be that for someone else.
Pretty cool ripple effect when you think about it.

The name might be new, but the actual impact isn't.

On a regular Saturday maybe a couple of people would have jumped in the ice bath.

But for daffodil day, 17 of our legends hopped in.

And so many for the first time 👏🏼

They each donated $10, we matched it, plus a few others who donated and we raised $380 for the Cancer Council 🌼

It's not a lot, but all the little things add up 💪🏼

Plus, those 17 legends left feeling empowered and probably had a positive impact on the people around them too 🙌🏼

The numbers on these boards are cool.

But these are the wins I really wish we could measure....

Feeling nervous to push yourself 👉🏼 getting excited to see what you can do.

Struggling to fit exercise into your life 👉🏼 it just becoming part of your week.

Working out feeling like a chore 👉🏼 actually wanting to show up.

Feeling like you have no idea what you're doing 👉🏼 feeling confident enough to challenge yourself.

Because, I think sometimes we look at someone who's confident, strong and smashing PBs and assume they've always been that person.

They haven't.

They just started where they were.

Unfit, unsure, and probably nervous as hell.

And slowly, all these other things started changing too.

So if you're a Woman in Geelong looking at these ladies thinking...

'I'd love to do that too, but I'm just not there yet'

Good.

You don't have to be.

You just have to be willing to start.

If that's the bit you're stuck on, send us a DM.
We can help with the rest 💪🏼
