Body Shot Fitness

Welcome to the first episode of Coach Mal’s Quiz of the Week. This week he is focusing on form when punching on the bags. Any wrong answers and you might have to hash it out in the ring with Mal (a multiple Taekwondo Gold Medalist) 🥊

Congrats to the winners of our March Myzone Challenge. It was awesome seeing our members use their heart rate monitors to push themselves...for once. Some crazy tallies on the scoreboard for effort points earned and calories burned 🔥

Our new boxing gear has landed! We’ve added custom focus pads to our range so you can now have your very own pair to complete the Body Shot set. Simply ask your coaches next time you’re in the gym and they’ll hook you up 🥊

A little throwback Thursday for our technique of the week with a hand wrap lesson from Steve and Simon. There are a few different ways to wrap your hands but this particular style is a good one to master. Quick wraps are a fast and easy option but we highly recommend levelling up to traditional hand wraps as they offer better support and customisation. You can tailor to your specific hand shape and focus on areas that need more padding depending on the condition of your hands. Sing out to one of our coaches if you ever want help with this before your class or PT session, with a warning that your lesson might come with a music rap if you ask Steve 😂

A quick, professional (?) technique of the week for you from our dynamic duo focusing on the traditional guard. Keep those elbows tucked in, rear hand by your chin and your lead hand slightly forward from your face 🥊

We’re graced with the presence of coaches Kaden and Josh for our technique of the week (a welcome relief from the usual duo). They demonstrate how to finish your punch properly by making sure that your heel is lifting off the ground and your shoulder is turning. By pivoting on your back foot and rotating your hips and shoulder, you will get more stability and power in your punch. Remember...Lift that heel, seal the deal 🥊

This year's Push Yourself Challenge was one of our busiest yet. Sessions were packed out and it was awesome seeing members try out different classes. We even got the gym bunnies outside and added a hike to our tallies. Smashed it one again, team!
