16.01.2022 We get stronger, fitter, and faster by using progressive overload. But what exactly is progressive overload and how do we do it? "According to legend, Milo trained by carrying a calf daily from its birth until it became a full-sized ox. He is also said to have carried an ox on his shoulders through the stadium at Olympia. According to the traditional account of his death, the aging Milo tried to tear apart with his hands a tree that had been split with a wedge; the wedge fell... out and the tree closed on one hand, holding him captive until he was attacked and devoured by wolves." In the gym with basic strength training there are 3 simple ways to progress. These are in order of the overload techniques to use. For example use number 1 before 2, and before 3. 1. Slow down the tempo and add time to your set. Rather than 10 reps x 3 sec each = 30s set. Use 10reps x 5s each = 50s set 2. Increase the reps. Now add 1-2 reps to your set. Keep the speed the same. 3. Lastly add the weight and drop the reps back down to suit if needed. Then start this process again.

13.01.2022 Would anyone want a Zoom meet up to have a Health and fitness Q & A? Maybe tonight? Have a social meet up online, hit me up with any fitness related questions such as...... How do I stay motivated to train at home? How do I do cardio at home? How do I get the kids involved? I have no equipment, what can I do? Bring a drink, a funny hat, wear your Pjs or just come as you are. ....

12.01.2022 It’s nice to be open. The lock down was kind of nice. It allowed us time to spend with family, as well as some business development. We have new equipment, two refurbished bathrooms, new paint work, 1 entire new room (machine weights), and a few little touches yet to come.

04.01.2022 At Bellingen Fitness we are not so much about training to look good, perform at elite level sport, get massive or even focus on losing tons of weight. We just want to be fit for life, TO STAY STRONG mentally and physically so we can do the things we enjoy. Diana has been training here to help recover from her accident. She has over come massive obstacles and continues to show us what can be achieved and overcome with a little bit of GRIT and PERSEVERANCE. Huge congratulations and shout out to Diana!!

03.01.2022 How are you dealing with this disruption to routine? Over the past few weeks are you: - visiting the fridge more or eating more "comfort foods" - feeling anxious, low motivation, stressed, depressed...... - finding it hard to get out of bed - finding days are more sedentary then before - ... Routine is important, it keeps us active and stable. It gives us a PURPOSE to get through the day, something to get up for. The picture here is of an Astronauts daily routine. Below is a written example. As you can see it's full. It needs to be. Imagine being in space with little to do. It can be scary up there. Away from family and friends, socially isolated...kind of like now right? The astronauts need to be kept busy so they can make their full time in space and not go crazy. What is your routine now? What is your purpose or goal each day? Some ways I have seen people manage this is by: - making daily check lists - start or maintain a hobby - set a routine in a calendar - schedule your day Personally, if I find myself with nothing to do, no list, no project, no tasks...I kind of feel...."lost, board, anxious..." You must remember that taking time out and relaxing IS SOMETHING, but we don't always feel like just chillin. We do need to schedule in down time but it cant be all the time. As you see below, even astronauts get down time in their ROUTINE. COMMENT BELOW... If you have a routine that keeps you on track. How do you manage it? If you are feeling lost and out of routine, or just wondering what to do each day. Let us know so we can help 06:00 AM - Crew wake.

02.01.2022 As of Tomorrow, Friday 15th, we will be able to run OUTDOOR TRAINING for up to 10 people. It looks like we will be able to open within Stage 2 release of restrictions. This may be at a reduced capacity in the gym, we wont know until they release details. Basically there has been a national framework detailed and then it's up to states and territories to apply this framework according to whats happening at a state level. So we will be looking at...... Starting outdoor group training Continuing all or some Online classes Offering 1 on 1 Personal training outdoors Offering small group Outdoor training More details on all of this shall follow. What have we been up to? Online classes: Over the last few months we have been running online classes to the same timetable were had when we were open. Attendance has been amazing with many members completing more sessions than normal. A huge thank you to those attending class. Gym reno's: We have been working hard at fixing up a few things around the gym. New paint on walls, we now have 2 bathrooms, matted floor area extended, and new floor paint. We also have some new equipment thanks to a very generous member who donated 2x wall ball targets for the rig. Personal health: Adrian's been dealing with Ross River since just before the lock down. Hence the online videos stopping due to arthritic pain each day. These videos and online content will resume in the future. Hope to see you soon. Bellingen Fitness.
