25.01.2022 If you grew up rocking to AC/DC, youll love this.

25.01.2022 The 6kg Mace is an awesome option to spice up core pull through. Clients surprise themselves everyday with gradual changes over time. Thats what makes fitness so enjoyable. #realchangetakestime.

24.01.2022 Your body needs time to recover, so be sure to include lighter days or total rest days dependent on how youre feeling.

24.01.2022 Sit much? Liven up your hip flexors with this exercise Im calling A Tick Tock, cause its like a clock. You can use any object to form a circle around you. The higher the object the more challenging.

23.01.2022 Do I want to do 15 rounds on the Rogue bike whilst everyone is sleeping? Absolutely not! I consider the Rogue bike Lucifers toy. But I still do it. Why? ... Because I know it will improve my overall fitness. Because conditioning is part of my own programme. But more importantly....Its because I believe I can improve, and every small improvement gives me confidence to take another step. My magic pill and yours is BELIEF. If youre struggling to achieve what you want, or youve lost your belief. Call me and let me help you get fit enough to do stuff.

23.01.2022 You can do this stretch before or after a workout. I prefer after, as it really helps me chill out afterwards. It doesnt look pretty, but its effective. The steps are in the post, but I want to emphasis how important it is to come out of the stretch S-L-O-W-L-Y. And you need to put a timer on, stay in the stretch for 2 mins. Enjoy.

22.01.2022 Some days its all easy....Some days not so much. But every day you commit and take action brings you closer to your goal. Take a small step and then another.....

22.01.2022 Show your loved ones you really care with a Fitmas Voucher for one-on-one personal training with Blue Bucket Fitness. Help them get fit enough to do stuff in 2021. Message me to discuss your needs.

21.01.2022 Thanks for following, sharing, and sweating with me throughout 2020. We are taking a break. Have a gorgeous Christmas everyone.

21.01.2022 Fitzy had a couple of ‘hurdles’ interrupt some of his programme. But he didn’t let it get in the way. Fitzy has a clear goal and he’s making it happen. We adjust and we continue. Get fit enough to do stuff.

21.01.2022 My gorgeous client Sue has a busy corporate life and every week she gives 100% in her sessions. Sue Wilkinson #getfitenoughtodostuff #suegetsstronger #BlueBucketFitness

21.01.2022 Whether your goal is to run a marathon or just be able to move better. You have to chunk it down and have a plan of how to get there. Or....Decide to work with a coach who understands your reasons, has the knowledge to execute the right plan and will keep you on track and inspired. #getfitenoughtodostuff

19.01.2022 Every day people choosing to get fit enough to do stuff.

19.01.2022 Recently I was chatting to a friend from Byron Bay, she was lamenting the need to get fit, and not knowing what to do. My answer was simple. Just start with a walk and build from there. Shes now on her 3rd week of walking, shes keeping her self accountable by posting photos of her walks and her confidence is growing in what she can do...And more importantly what she can see is possible. Sometimes we stall. We dont mean to. But we do. We make excuses for not starting now. When you do that, time sneaks on by, and before you know it. A week has turned to 4, a month into 3. Well you get the idea.... Your fitness plan doesnt have to be complicated. Just start and be consistent.

19.01.2022 Sweaty sports bras can be a drama to get out of especially during summer. So try this hack instead. Its relates to the sports bras with no clips that crossover at the back. Ive been doing it this way for years, without and issues to the bras. Its just so much easier than trying to pull a sweaty bra over your head.

18.01.2022 Xmas is on the horizon and some of you might want to work off some of those Xmas sweets over the break. Here’s something to keep in mind. Remember to warm up first. Get your muscles warm and your heart rate up BEFORE you start throwing around any weights (or god-forbid...running).

17.01.2022 Whatever you want to change about yourself. Your first step is to choose to change. No one can motivate you, until youre ready to change. If youre fed up with feeling out-of-shape. Choose to change. Ph 0417740877

16.01.2022 Gotta a move that makes you feel amazing? When you start your day with a power play it gives you confidence throughout the whole day. Skipping, walking, running, lifting, swimming....Whats your power play? Not sure if you have a fitness power play? Lets talk and I can help you find yours.

16.01.2022 Got aches and pains? Me too! It happens as we age, which is why it is so important to stay active. If youve got some niggles, see if you can answer this question. When did you first notice. The answer may surprise you, and if its been a while. Its time to change it. Get fit enough to do stuff.

16.01.2022 Nine weeks ago Steve couldnt do a lunge. The stuff on his bucket list related to his recovery after a hip replacement. The surgery was catalyst for him to choose to change. Now he is making progress every single day. You can too.

14.01.2022 Mondays roll around quickly, before you know it your to-do list is out of control. So its important to make sure you schedule time-out stuff. For me, exercising in the morning is my time-out. I go into the exercise tunnel and when I come out Im ready for anything. Exercise helps me focus and be present. (Cause you cant afford to be distracted when youre floating heavy metal objects around your head).... Get moving and stay on top of your game. Happy Monday.

14.01.2022 At Blue Bucket Fitness its personal. Do you know someone who might benefit from one-on-one training? Lets talk.

13.01.2022 And of course at Blue Bucket Fitness theres more than enough 80s tunes to get you feeling good and in the mood to move. Private one-on-one training for over 40s.

13.01.2022 Marisa has only recently started her programme, and she making awesome progress. Marisa knows her ‘why’, and she has also started to make incremental changes with her diet. She also works hard every session. #YouRockMarisa #bluebucketfitness #getfitenoughtodostuff

12.01.2022 You can change. Start now. Make a call.

12.01.2022 We sit all day and as a result our butts gradually get weaker. Exercises like this hip thruster help strengthen those glutes and stronger glutes means better stability. Better stability means less issues with hips and knees, because its all connected. As someone who lives with a out-of-whack knees working on my glutes has definitely made a difference to my stability and balance. Talking of balance and aging....Check out this article about the importance of balance as you age, written by local Osteopath, Liam McCambridge from NExT Osteo & Rehab. Liam knows his stuff and he has helped me many times over the last few years. https://bluebucketfitness.com.au/over-40-ish-hows-your-bal/

11.01.2022 So a friend gave me this song as a warm up. Im not a country music fan and it took some thinking to get appropriate horsey movements. Ive changed the names for all these to match the country theme. 1. Equine jumps 2. Lateral amble 3. Chase the flies 4. Giddy ups ... 5. Wild brumby 6. Melb cup Repeat for 4 mins Yes Im warm now. Music credit. Power Music

10.01.2022 If youre passing a newsagent grab a card and mail it to Eileen. In a world of craziness, taking a small step to make someone smile seems pretty damn important. Address is at the bottom of the story.

10.01.2022 Its normal to be a bit nervous about starting something new. Theres lots of reasons to feel this way: A previous poor experience. Not knowing what to expect. Not being confident you can do stuff. Or simply never having done it before. The good news is....Its okay to feel like this. At Blue Bucket Fitness we want to understand your motivations and any fears, because we want to give you the best tailored training experience possible. Message me for a time to discuss your needs.

07.01.2022 The older I get the more I appreciate simplicity. Like this little Do-Hicky (Im sure its got a proper name). This simple device is a cost effective and easy way to change plates. Picked it up from The WOD Life

07.01.2022 If you only ever focus on getting the goal youll miss the joy of achieving all those amazing small steps along the way. Each small step you take to improving your health and fitness is a good step. Which is why Blue Bucket Fitness carefully tracks the progress of every client. Small steps are winning steps. Celebrate each and every one of them.

06.01.2022 Now I know how a lazy Susan feels. Its tough to rotate and not drop the ball. Keeping a neutral spine, your knees off the ground, your pelvis even and your core engaged means this turns into a focus exercise as well.

06.01.2022 I went to a catholic school in the Isa, and I have memories of getting slapped with a stick if you werent touch typing. Fortunately its a skill thats been pretty useful over the years. If you used a typewriter, youre probably over 45 and you probably have some health and fitness goals youd like to achieve. Finish 2020 on a high. Get fit enough to do stuff.

03.01.2022 Get fit enough to enjoy some of your fav foods with your fav people. It’s been a hell of wild year and we are celebrating making it through COVID and lock downs and a world turned upside down with a sweet ending. Homemade Rum balls and caramel fudge (branded if course). Merry Christmas everyone

03.01.2022 Pigs might fly statements. If you can relate to some of these, choose to change it. Tomorrow, just get out of bed, get dressed in your workout gear, put your shoes on and then....Just write down your reason for why you want to improve your health and fitness levels. Thats it. See No Sweat. (And if you want - text or message me your reason)

03.01.2022 Sue Wilkinson is a pocket rocket and shes determined to hit her personal goals. Be like Sue.

02.01.2022 If you want to change, you have the power to make it happen. Take a positive step today. It dosen’t have to be big or bold. Just choose to change one small thing today, and then do it again tomorrow, and the next day. For example: One less sugar in your coffee, stand for 5 mins every hour, stand on one leg for a minute, put your phone out of reach for hour. Small changes are super powers in disguise.

02.01.2022 Pack up your fears. Whatever they are...Fear of failure, fear of not being able to do stuff, fear of people watching, fear of not being strong enough, or fit enough, fear of starting, fear of how you look or how you move. When you train one-on-one with Blue Bucket Fitness there is just you and me and your reason why.

01.01.2022 Wherever you are tonight....Say goodbye to 2020, have an amazing time and let’s plan on a ‘cracking’ year ahead.

01.01.2022 This one contains a few of my favourite things, family, kettlebells and older peeps showing what’s possible. You gotta watch till the end.

01.01.2022 A good read on the importance of building muscle as we age.
