One of the biggest thing I got out of missing a year of sport (ACL rupture '22) was the importance of learning new things and embracing all parts of fitness.
I consider myself lucky in that I quite like exercise and staying healthy.
Many of the people I train and speak to find it hard to make exercise and training fit for them.
A thing I find works best is exploring and being open to making your fitness journey the right fit for you.
Do what you want and like to do and the details can be figured out later.
Use your fitness journey also to meet new people and expand your social network.
I joined the Seabirds Swim Club in July last year because I wanted to become a better swimmer and meet new people.
Every Sunday morning from Winter to now Summer I'm down there enjoying myself and making new jelly fish friends in the ocean.
Would love to hear what new sport or activity you are doing this year 🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️🙋🏼♂️
Let me know in the comments or DM me to start a convo 🫡
Speak soon 🤝🫡

Happy to be back 😄😄😄
When I did my ACL in Aug '22 one of the things that sucked was not getting to do any striking anymore.
First day back was awesome and looking forward to getting punched in the face instead of heel hooked

Surfer Strength: YOUTH TRAINING 👧👦
Perfect pathway for 12-15 year olds
Working at I have had the pleasure of running the "Surfer Strength: Youth Program" which acts as a pathway system for 12-15 years olds before progressing to our surfer strength program 🏄🏄♀️🏄♂️
Teaching kids the fundamentals of
✅ Moving well
✅ Jumping and Landing
✅ Ability to lift and control their own bodyweight
Is priceless along with making them feel comfortable and capable in a gym environment.
Unfortunately for a lot of kids their starting experience in the gym is lifting with their mates at anytime fitness in the arvo.
Not the best starting point when compared to having a professional show them.
Any questions happy to help just shoot me a DM 🙋

Keeping motivated for exercise in the long-term is tough. 😮💨
If someone loves exercise usually they have chosen something that ticks a few boxes. 😇
On the inverse if someone hates to exercise it's most likely they haven't ticked some motivational boxes. 👿
In this post we look at Self-determination theory (SDT) as it relates to exercise motivation.
In SDT a person will have better motivation if they ✅
1. Autonomy
2. Competence
3. Relatedness
If you struggle with exercise motivation are you missing any of these?

Where is Fortitude Performance Now 🙋♂️ - https://mailchi.mp/fortitudeperformance/where-is-fortitude-performance-now
A quick update on the journey that FP has taken to a new location.
05/12/2021
Definitely woke up the morning of 1st January 2021 and chose violence for the year.
To choose violence is simply approaching life with urgency and making sure you get after it every day.
Set goals and targets that push what you think you are capable of.

Excited for gyms opening Monday 11th
🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳.
Something that was supposed to be a 2 week break ended up being much longer 🤣.
While there were plenty of hards times I can't complain I got to spend hours each morning with my amazing 5am waking baby Bodhi 😍
I can't be too sad that I got time to see how I can help out around the house more and be a better husband.
I also can't complain that this time also allowed me to be blessed with an opportunity for my professional career.
Look forward to seeing you all at my new location 🤗🤗
