25.01.2022 It's official, BNB will be reopening June 13th! Since forced closure March 23rd, it's been an interesting 8 weeks to say the least. I've sold or leased a grand total of 4000+kg weight plates, 35x bars, 8x benches, 5x bench presses, 3x combo racks, 2x power racks, 2x squat stands as well as countless blocks of chalks, collars and misc stuff. The attached 'after' pics are of the gym a few weeks ago and it's only gotten more bare since then. For those that don't know, during the... early days of Covid closure I was visited by the police 4 times over 4 days to check I was complying - I always was and still am. I can assure everyone that BNB WILL NOT be closing permanently and instead will be reopening with what I've termed as BNB v3.5 - same shed but with some major new equipment upgrades to further cement BNB as one of the premier Powerlifting Australia gyms. This means new combo racks, new bench presses, new barbells and much more to be organised over the next 4 weeks before a grand reveal on BNB v3.5 Open Day on June 13th (more details on that later). In addition, the bunker located in the back left corner of the gym has been demolished and removed, freeing up another 10m2 of space for yet to be announced equipment. Currently a 'Cardio Corner' is the number one rumour within BNB members but feel free to comment your suggestions below... I'd like to take a moment to say a massive thanks to everyone who has supported BNB over the past few months during the Covid closure; this includes members, clients, everyone who leased or purchased equipment and anyone that sent messages to make sure things were alright. I'll admit, there was a lot of uncertainty and doubt along the way but after busting my ass with BNB for 6+ years, I wasn't going to let a few months of closure destroy my dream and passion. I can confidently say that BNB will be reopening as an even better equipped facility but with the same awesome small gym community and environment. If you're not currently a BNB member or client and would like to reserve your chance to train at BNB once restrictions are lifted in June then now is your chance! BNB will be taking on a strictly limited number of new gym members & coaching clients during June to ensure we maintain the highest level of safety and adhere to social distancing rules.

24.01.2022 Big G with a monster 220kg YOLO deadlift! Fresh off her 7th place at Arnolds Ohio less than 2 weeks ago, Big G now has her eyes set on a huge 225kg deadlift record at the Powerlifting Australia National Championships in July. Ohio's results:... Log - 100kg - zero reps Deadlift - 183kg x3 & 191kg x 2 in 60sec Farmers - 105kg per hand for 20m, 3rd place Yoke - 250kg for 20m, 4th place G will be one of nearly 20 #TeamBNB lifters aiming to compete at the PA 2020 National Championships being held here in Brisbane.

24.01.2022 BNB Brisbane Open & Pacific Invitational walk through...

20.01.2022 It's official, Powerlifting Australia Junior & Masters National Championships are coming to BNB Sep 2020...

19.01.2022 BNB v3.5 is nearly here! This week saw the arrival of 3400kg of Samtek equipment including 6 combo racks for bench pressing, 19 stainless steel competition barbells and 1100kg in competition plates. My goal for BNB v3.5 is to allow every lifter in Powerlifting Australia competitions to warm up up for squat & bench press using a Samtek combo rack and ensure that every bar used for squat, bench press and deadlift are the exact same as we use on the competition platform. BNB ha...s committed to hosting a massive 8 comps over the next 6 months to ensure everyone gets an adequate opportunity to compete in powerlifting or strongman: July 11: BNB Brisbane Open & Pacific Invitational Powerlifting Competition Aug 22: BNB Powerlifting Competition (Aug) Sep 12: BNB Strongman competition (Round 2) Sep 25-27: Australian Junior & Masters Championships Oct 10: BNB Powerlifting competition (Boss Babes) Nov 7: BNB Powerlifting competition (Nov) Dec 5: BNB Powerlifting competition (Dec) Dec 12: BNB Strongman competition (Round 3) Dec 19: BNB YOLO PBs A big thanks to everyone who helped assemble the combo racks on Fri and moved equipment around this morning. A very special mention to Owie, Madman, Josh, Nugget & Iain who have worked tirelessly the past few Saturdays to help me redo the entire gym flooring at BNB. All up, well over 500m2 of gym tiles have been ripped up and laid down again in a superior layout to ensure better floor coverage. At this stage I'd say BNB v3.5 is 80% completed with just a few more bits & pieces yet to arrive and a some final finishing touches to go.

19.01.2022 BNB is officially open again with a free first casual visit available for the rest of the week; 10am to 7pm Tue to Thur, 8am to 12pm Sat and 12pm to 5pm Sun. Please just flick me a message to confirm before you drop by. Massive thanks to #TeamBNB for their help this morning putting the gym together again. BNB is still only at about 25% of our equipment (members are in the process of returning what they leased and new equipment is in transit) but 25% is still heaps better than... 0%.

18.01.2022 It's taken a few years but the gym finally has a group of Islanders that train at BNB. Whether they're Kiwi, Samoan or from the Cook Islands these are some of the friendliest & most supportive members and it's a pleasure having them train at BNB. If you're an islander that is sick of training at commercial gyms with no community then drop by and introduce yourself at BNB - you won't regret it!

17.01.2022 BNB v1 just 1 month after opening 6 years ago... 3 power racks, 3 bench presses, 4 deadlifts.

17.01.2022 With less than 4 weeks until BNB reopens (June 13) it's time for new equipment to start arriving starting with 7 new weight plate trees & 2 new deadlift jacks thanks to Big Mus Russ. If anybody is after a weight plate tree or deadlift jack for their home gym, please flick through a message and Russ will be able to sort something out.

16.01.2022 Mother Napper with a smooth 120kg deadlift at 59 years of age. This is the heaviest she's pulled in a good 12+ months and I'm happy with her technique and bar speed. She doesn't know it yet but my goal is for her to compete in Powerlifting Australia's Australian Junior & Masters Championships at BNB in Sep...

BNB Brawl IV - Sat 20th Feb 2021 - https://tinyurl.com/y2b5cp3u BNB Blitz IV - Sat 17th Apr 2021 - https://tinyurl.com/y3dhgvau Big thanks to the continued support of every BNB helper from all our competitions this year. BNB hosted an unparalleled 6 PA comps in the 6 months post Covid lockdown and these competitors wouldn't have been possible without many valuable members giving up their time.

10.01.2022 With QLD Covid restrictions easing and gyms allowed to reopen from 12pm tomorrow (1/6), BNB will be back in action ASAP. The goal is to finish redoing the flooring, recover leased equipment and reopen mid this week for members with new members able to train as of next week, 9am-9pm.

09.01.2022 Here's my 59 year old mother with a comfortable 85kg squat. For those that don't know, mother's all time best deadlift is 160.5kg which was a Powerlifting Australia record when she set it way back in 2016. After a few years off competing she's looking to make a comeback later this year. BNB welcomes members of all ages, strength levels and lifting experience.

08.01.2022 420kg of brand new bumpers now at BNB. I've been patiently waiting 4+ months for these to arrive. Will update BNB's December Strongman events and programming for the competition this weekend...

08.01.2022 A big #TeamBNB Happy Birthday to Curls aka Little Dave aka David Walter. Please be sure to spam his FB message inbox with happy bday messages as is the BNB tradition. For those that don't know, Curls has been a BNB client since early 2014 during Goodlife Carseldine days. Upon opening BNB v1 in Sep 2014, Curls delayed joining as he wasn't sure BNB membership was going to be worth the money but eventually he became our 6th member. Since then he's competed in more strongman & p...owerlifting comps combined than any other BNB member that I'm aware of. I've included a few pics I pulled from his FB profile from early BNB days (late 2014) all the way to mid 2019. I want BNB to be the kind of gym where people want to hang around long term as this allows members to build friendships and be part of a community that is difficult to find elsewhere in life. For many BNB members, the gym is a safe space where they can train in a relaxed, supportive and friendly environment no matter your age, lifting experience or strength.
