Busy day? Make time for yourself without making a whole thing of it โฑ๏ธ๐ช
Spring is here, the calendar is filling up, and finding an hour to train can feel impossible.
But you don't need an hour.
Jump in. Get 30โ45 minutes of solid training done. Get out the door and get back to your day.
Whether you're building strength, working on your fitness or just trying to feel a little better in yourself, short, consistent workouts add up.
Your fitness doesn't need to take over your life. It just needs to fit into it.
Train smart. Make it count. Then get on with your day ๐

The Rec Room 6-Week Challenge is officially underway, and over the next six weeks itโs all about building some momentum, staying consistent and seeing just how much progress you can make when you give yourself something to work towards ๐ช
You donโt need to completely overhaul your life or smash yourself every single day. Get your sessions in, make some good choices, keep moving and remember that all those small efforts start to add up pretty quickly.
And because we like to keep things interesting, thereโll be weekly challenges and some seriously good spot prizes up for grabs along the way, plus that all-important prize pot waiting at the finish line ๐๐
So whether youโre here to get stronger, fitter, build better habits or simply prove to yourself what you can do in six weeks, this is your starting line.
Day 1. Letโs get stuck in. ๐ฅ

Personal training isn't about being pushed to your limit every session. It's about having someone in your corner๐
Someone who celebrates your wins, helps you build confidence, keeps you accountable, and somehow still makes you laugh along the way.
Whether your goal is getting stronger, moving with confidence, recovering from injury, or simply feeling better day to day, our PT team meets you where you're at.
With trainers like Dee, you'll quickly realise it's not just about the workouts - it's about enjoying the journey too.
Ready to find your person? We'd love to help โจ

๐จ THE REC ROOM 6-WEEK CHALLENGE IS BACK! ๐จ
Six weeks. One goal. A whole lot of motivation.
Starting Monday 31st August, we're challenging you to lock in, stay consistent and make some serious progress heading into summer.
Last year's challenge was a huge success, so we're keeping it simple this time round: one entry, everything you need to get started.
๐ช $99 ENTRY GETS YOU:
* 2 x body scans (before and after) to track your progress
* Access to weekly spot prizes throughout the challenge
* Entry into the challenge prize pot. $20 of every entry goes straight in ๐ฐ
* Full access to nutrition and training resources through the Rec Room App, live and ready to go before the challenge kicks off
๐ HOW YOU WIN
The challenge pot goes to whoever loses the highest percentage of their own starting body fat, not just who loses the most on the scale. That means everyone's on a level playing field, no matter where you're starting from.
Want extra support? Add ons like structured programmes and personal training are available at challenge only pricing.
๐
Body scans need to be done before kick-off, so get in early. Challenge runs for six weeks from Monday 31st August.
Entries open this coming week so keep an eye out!

๐จ NEW TRAINER ALERT ๐จ
The Rec Room whฤnau just got bigger - please help us welcome SCOTT GORMAN AKA Snakey to the team! ๐๐ช
Scott's got the CV to match his energy. A Bachelor of Sport & Exercise Science from Massey University (majoring in Exercise Prescription and Training) under his belt, he's spent the last year as an Assistant Trainer for Wellington Rugby and for the Hurricanes - yep, THAT Hurricanes team that just broke a decade-long championship drought ๐ He's currently Assistant Trainer for the Manawatu Turbos, and he's the key motivator behind the scenes - the man giving the weekly pep talks and getting the boys fired up before game day. Don't believe us? Ask ya boy Jordie Barrett ๐
Good news for us: Scott's joining The Rec Room in a part-time capacity for now - mostly evenings while he sees out the Turbos season before committing to full-time with us in a couple of months.
So what will you find him doing on the floor?
โ
Running classes
โ
Building personalised programmes
โ
Taking on Personal Training clients
Trying to level up your game? If you want quality, athlete-grade training under your belt, this is your man. And don't think he's just for the athletes - Scott works with anyone chasing strength, weight loss, confidence, or coming back from injury with rehab-focused training. Same expertise, same energy, all members welcome.
And of course, heโs a bloody good bloke too. You're going to love having him around.
Keen to start training with Scott? Flick us a DM to get it sorted ๐ฒ

Live. Laugh. Lift... or something like that ๐
Fitness should be something you look forward to, not something you have to tick off your to-do list.
Some days you'll come to chase a PB. Other days you'll come for the people. Either way, you'll leave feeling better than when you walked in.
At The Rec Room, you'll find a team who know when to push you, members who'll cheer you on, and a community that makes showing up the easiest part.
Hard work? Absolutely.
Good banter? Guaranteed.
A community that's got your back? Every single session.
We reckon you'll fit right in ๐
