I should have been excited but I was a bit... meh!

Over the last few weeks we've been moving downstairs to a bigger and better space and although it was hard work- I should have been super excited.

But somehow I just wasn't feeling it.

The "chi" just wasn't right and so over the last week we've completely re-installed it!

AND NOW I'M BEYOND EXCITED!

We have a great layout for our members now that strikes the right balance between camaraderie, flexibility and space and now I'm looking forward to going in every day!

16 stations (previously we had 9)
More storage (less clutter)
Stand alone studio for mobility and classroom sessions
2 treatment/consultation rooms
More spacious waiting areas!

As I enter my 10th year of group based personal training I'm so proud of where we've got to and supremely grateful to everyone that's supported us over the years but I wanted to give a grateful shoutout to our amazing members that came in to help with painting, cleaning or moving...

Yesterday I saw an article on the BBC website that reports once again that lifting weights is massively beneficial for your health and longevity!

In short strength training for 90-120 minutes per week...

reduces the risk of premature death by 13%

in particular reduces the risk of premature death due to cardiovascular disease by 19% and due to neurological conditions (for example dementia) by 27%!

What the article doesn't touch on which I think is equally important is the quality of life strength training gives you- more mobility, better joint health, less pain, more able to participate in activities of daily life, ability to continue to participate in physical pursuits later in life!

Many people don't strength train enough because they don't have the motivation, find it boring or (more often) are worried about doing it wrong and hurting themselves.

Group style personal training (that we do at BlueZone fitness) is the perfect antidote to this- by training with other people it is much more enjoyable and always having a coach on hand ensures that your training is always safe and effective.

(Not to mention group personal training is far more cost-effective... at a fraction of the cost of 1-1 training!)

If you're interested in finding out how we can help just reply "Tell Me More!"

Regular weight training can help you keep fit and strengthen muscles to live longer, research suggests.

TEAM FITNESS GAMES

Structure and consistency is key in making progress with your exercise- but sometimes you need a bit of variety. Our fitness games are a chance to do a workout in a different way, a social event that "disguises" the hard work with different challenges and activities!

How to progress to do an effective plank!

People take great pride in how long that can hold a plank- but is it actually benefitting or actually hindering your back health???
