Well… apparently this is what Steven and I would have looked like as fitness trainers through the decades. 😂

The 60s were questionable. The 70s got interesting. But I’m pretty sure we would have THRIVED in the 80s.

And the 90s? We definitely would have owned a step.

Thankfully the outfits have changed, but we’re still doing what we’ve always loved - getting people moving, getting stronger and hopefully having a bit of fun while we’re at it.

Which decade gets your vote?

And Steven… don’t get any ideas. 😂

Exercise doesn’t have to look the same for everyone.

Some people want a challenging weights session.

Someone else might need chair fitness.

Some days you might feel like boxing or circuit. Other days, walking or stretching is exactly what your body needs.

That’s why we offer so much variety.

Today’s timetable has 15 LIVE online sessions, with options and modifications to help you train at your level.

You don’t have to fit the workout. We help make the workout fit you.

Membership is $17.50 a week and gives you access to our full live timetable, with no lock-in.

And if you’re not sure whether online training is for you, you can try us first.

Times shown are AEST. Our website calendar automatically displays sessions in your local time.

No driving to the gym. No finding a park. No worrying about what everyone else is doing.

Grab your equipment, turn on your screen and train with us from home.

Today there are 15 live sessions across the day - from weights and boxing to yoga, Pilates, chair fitness and Club Fiesta.

And you’re not exercising along to a recording.

We’re there too, coaching the session LIVE.

That’s an important part of what we do.

We talk a lot about building muscle as we get older. But what about our bones?

Bone is living tissue, and it responds to what we ask it to do. Strength training and weight-bearing exercise place load through our bones, giving the body a reason to maintain and strengthen them.

For women, this becomes particularly important through midlife and beyond, when declining oestrogen can accelerate bone loss.

It’s one of the reasons we’re so passionate about women continuing to lift weights and challenge themselves as they get older. We’re not just training for what we can see in the mirror. We’re training for strong bones, independence and all the things we want our bodies to keep doing for years to come.

Of course, if you have osteoporosis or low bone density, exercise may need to be modified for you. But getting older isn’t a reason to stop challenging your body - it’s a very good reason to keep it strong.

Strong muscles matter. Strong bones do too.

You don’t need an hour to exercise.

Life gets busy. We understand that.

That’s one of the reasons our sessions are 30 minutes.

Today you can box, lift weights, do Pilates, resistance bands, functional fitness, ABT, circuit, stretch or have a dance at Club Fiesta.

You don’t need to find an hour.

Find 30 minutes that works for you.

All sessions are LIVE online, with options for different fitness levels.

If you’ve wondered what online training with us is actually like, come and try a week. We’d love to have you join us.

🎀 IT'S PINK RIBBON FUNDRAISING WEEK AT HALLIGAN'S FITNESS! 🎀

It's that time of year again! 💗

This week we're holding our annual Pink Ribbon Fundraiser, bringing our wonderful Halligan's Fitness community together to raise money and awareness for breast cancer.

💗 This year, we are once again fundraising in loving memory of Verity Jenna White and Vivian Audrey Oakes, the daughter and sister of our wonderful member Jeanette from Mount Barker, who were both sadly lost to breast cancer.

This is a cause close to so many of our hearts, and we all know someone whose life has been touched by breast cancer.

Over the years, our community has shown incredible generosity, and we'd love to make this year's fundraiser another success.

💗 If you're able to donate, every dollar counts. No amount is too small, and every contribution is greatly appreciated.

🎀 DONATE HERE:
https://fundraise.nbcf.org.au/fundraisers/stevenhalligan

Thank you for your kindness, generosity and ongoing support. Together, we can honour those we've lost, support those affected and help make a difference.

Steven, Danielle & the Halligan's Fitness Community 💗

Did you know that every day 56 people in Australia are diagnosed with breast cancer and 9 people in Australia die every day from this disease? This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I'm raising funds for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) to support world-class breast cancer research and help...

This week we’re going to show you what a full week of training at Halligan’s actually looks like, one day at a time.

One of the things we love about our timetable is the choice.

You might feel like weights today and stretching tomorrow. You might prefer an early morning circuit before the day gets busy, or a 5pm session after work.

There isn’t one “right” way to exercise.

Today is Monday — 12 live sessions to choose from, starting at 5am and finishing with Stretch at 5.30pm.

Choose what works for your body, your day and your fitness level.

All sessions are LIVE online.

Times shown are AEST. Our website calendar automatically displays sessions in your local time.

“Why does everything hurt now?”

It’s a question we hear from a lot of women in their 40s, 50s and beyond.

So we were interested to see that the official theme for World Menopause Day this year is Chronic Pain at Midlife.

Pain shouldn’t simply be dismissed as “getting older”, and as trainers we’re certainly not here to diagnose it. New, persistent or concerning pain deserves proper assessment.

But having a body that needs more consideration doesn’t necessarily mean giving up exercise either.

Sometimes training needs to change. We modify movements, range, resistance and intensity regularly. On other days, a completely different type of session might be the better choice.

We’ve worked with women through this stage of life for many years, and perhaps one of the most important things we’ve learnt is that what your body needs today may be different from what it needed ten years ago.

Different doesn’t mean done.
