But in John’s own words:

“Big thank you to Anytime Fitness Invercargill as my home base, to be able to achieve my goals and be a friendly, supportive crew.” ❤️

We’re incredibly proud to be part of John’s journey and to watch the hard work he’s put in pay off. Three PBs in one competition is an amazing achievement! 👏

Next stop… Nationals this December! 🏆
We can’t wait to see what’s ahead.

Next up: Train Like Kelsi 🔥

Once a month we’ll be sharing how our staff + coaches actually train to give you some insight, ideas, and free resources you can use in your own training.

These programmes are NOT customised, they’re an example of how we train!

Kelsi’s current focus is strength, muscle and fitness, with a simple, beginner-friendly approach to training. Expect 3 strength sessions + 1 circuit-style session, with a mix of gym basics, dumbbells, machines and some beginner-friendly Olympic-style movements 💪🔥

Want to train like Kelsi? Check out the full programme via the link in our bio, where you’ll find the complete workouts, exercise notes, sets, reps, rest periods and a suggested training schedule.

Please remember:
✔️ Warm up and cool down properly
✔️ Adjust exercises where needed
✔️ If you have injuries or limitations, avoid movements that aggravate them
✔️ Train smart and focus on good technique

Give it a go, save it for later, and let us know if you try a session 👊🔥

Everything’s better with your people. Grab your friends, hit the gym, and make your next workout the one you’ve all been talking about. Because when you train together, you show up harder, push further, and have a whole lot more fun. 💜
