Do you need to get fit to do Boot Camp, or flexible before you can do Yoga?

It might sound funny, but so many times we have heard people say “Oh, I need to get fit before I can do Boot Camp!”

or “I am not flexible enough to do Yoga!”

but the truth is that wherever you are starting from now is absolutely perfect, and you will get fit by doing Boot Camp or get flexible by doing Yoga.

It is human nature to not want to embarrass ourselves, or feel uncomfortable, but the irony is that we get people of all levels of ability saying these things before joining our Boot Camps and Yoga…

So it doesn’t matter where you are at now!

When people ask this we always remind them – there is always likely going to be someone fitter and faster than you and there is also someone who is at more of a beginner level then you – it is not about comparing yourself to other people but only to improving yourself. 

That is specifically why we design our sessions the way that we do, so that there are different levels for beginner through to advanced, with harder options for the more advanced and more suitable options for the beginners… That way you can always challenge yourself to the next level… and everybody is so busy concentrating on themselves and what they are individually doing that there literally isn’t time to worry about anything else!

It is also why we have the mantra “Challenge by Choice” and “Honour Your Body” as on different days you will have different energy levels. It is not about smashing yourself every week but training at an intensity that is suitable for you on each session. It is about getting to know your self and your body, and celebrating the small improvements each week that add up to your big transformation.

As our Yoga guruji once said “It is like watching your hair grow – you can’t see it happening but one day you wake up and realise it’s time for a hair cut!”

When you are consistent and just show up each week; everything else is taken care of and you will get there!

So if you are guilty of focusing on perfection not progress, or have been procrastinating getting started until you are ‘ready’ – call yourself out on this ASAP as you are missing out on getting started now and seeing results a lot faster than if you wait until you are ready!

Inspirational Transformations – Rachelle and Matt

By | Boot Camps, Boxing, Client Transformations, Fresh Fitness Wall of Fame, Inspiration, Motivation, Personal Training, Training | No Comments

Matt and RachelleA big congratulations to our team members Rachelle and Matt Larkin who have achieved amazing results with us this year at our Boot Camps and PT.

Earlier in the year Rachelle phoned us up as they wanted to do something to get their health and fitness back on track. Looking back now it has been amazing to see them both get fitter and stronger every week, they have both toned up so much; increased their muscle and strength, and burnt fat, Rachelle has run her first half marathon 21km’s and lost 5kg and Matt has lost over 15+ kilos!

Rachelle and Matt have such a positive attitude and always give 110% effort in to their training and are such an inspiring part of our team.

We love seeing couples get fit together as it is such a great synergy and has such a huge impact on their lives.

Two Pina Colada Cocktail Drinks

Whole Coconut Drink

By | Inspiration, Nutrition, Recipes, Uncategorized | No Comments

Can’t get a much better whole food drink than this one after a big day and it tastes amazing.

With the added benefit of giving your body electrolytes and good fats, it also has an antibacterial effect to clean the stomach.
Pour the coconut water into the blender with all of the flesh and some ice. Blend to perfection.

Enjoy!

Salmon Mushroom Cups

By | Uncategorized | No Comments

Here is a super EASY and QUICK (and delicious!) recipe you can try that we came up with last week:

Salmon Mushroom Cups

All you will need is three main ingredients:

1. The biggest, freshest, field mushrooms you can find

2. A can of salmon (or tuna) we found the soy and ginger one from Aldi delicious

3. Pink Himalayan Sea Salt and Cracked Pepper / Parmasen cheese to sprinkle on top

Just get some of the big delicious field mushrooms, crack open a can of salmon (or you could use tuna), we found a soy and ginger one from Aldi was delicious, top with salt and pepper and a little parmasen cheese, pop in the oven and bake until juicy and golden on top!

We created a side of Kale chips by placing some chopped Kale around the mushrooms and baking alongside (just spray with Extra Virgin Olive Oil Spray and a sprinkle of pink himalayan sea salt) some steamed broccoli and cherry tomatoes.

This healthy meal is so quick, and filling, and literally takes only a few minutes to prepare.

Have fun, get creative and let us know how you go!
