25.01.2022 Mental Health Week We are excited to have Abby Wallis come up and run a wonderful yoga session for Mental Health Week When: Saturday 3rd October 10 am ... Cost: Free Who: Anyone in the Derwent Valley *please bring your own yoga mat if you have one About Abby Wallis: I have always had a love for art and creation. Growing up in a sleepy town in Canada, I was first drawn to yoga from an admiration of the beauty in expressive, gentle movement. I was awed that the practitioners of yoga could move so freely yet controlled, powerfully yet calmly, and maintain a look of utter peace throughout the process. With age, I became more interested in fitness, and forgot about yoga for a while. When my mental stability started wavering, I returned to the calmness I had once noticed. With habitual practice, I found a safe place full of love, beauty, and acceptance. Yoga became my method to block out external stress, and focus on the stillness and peace within myself. Leaving Canada to learn more about myself, I spent months travelling Asia and studying a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training Certification in Cambodia. I have since studied various additional courses, such as Yoga Injury Prevention, and Therapeutic Application of Yoga for Grief. Later, moving to Australia, I began a career focused on teaching this practice. I want to teach others how to focus internally, healing their bodies and minds from within. I believe that through Yoga we all hold the power to change, create, and control our world - or at least our perceptions of it.

22.01.2022 In a society that is becoming more sedentary we need to look at MORE than just 45 minutes at the gym to improve our health. Enter MOVEMENT SNACKS: Do you really believe that 45 minutes of moderate to intense exercise will undo all the sitting you do for the rest of the day at work or home?... That's why I invite you to incorporate some movement snacks into your day! Take 5-10 minutes 2-3 times a day to do something, anything, that will get you moving! You can do a quick circuit, do some squats OR maybe you have mobility issues or lacking strength in a certain area and you can use this small amount of time to address those things. It will assist in gaining strength, mobility, increasing cardiovascular health and it just makes you feel goooooood! It's not only a great way to break up your day but if you do it 3 times a day that's an extra 30 minutes of exercise EVERY DAY.

22.01.2022 Another amazing achievement for the Smith Family Chris Smith.... What a year mate! Since Feb Chris has lost 35.2 kg ... (These photos are only 6 months apart, June to December). Incredible discipline and work ethic mate, you deserve everything coming your way in 2021 Looking sharp!

16.01.2022 MEAL PREP STEPS Follow these simple tips to start a meal prepping routine: LOOK AHEAD ... Which busy days in the coming week will you need pre-prepped meals? MAKE A MENU Jot down ideas for your pre-prepped meals. SHOP FOR INGREDIENTS Buy the ingredients for your pre-prepped meals. COOK FOR THE WEEK Take some time to cook you meals for the upcoming week. STORE IT CONVENIENTLY Pack your food in stackable containers in the fridge or freezer.

16.01.2022 Are you a food consumer or a food lover? Did you know there's a difference? For a food consumer, eating is more like a hasty business transaction.... Eating is a means to an end. It feels more like a distraction than a moment worthy of savoring. A food consumer is tuned out of the eating experience. Instead of being tuned in to the felt experience of the moment, they're tuned out to other narratives. The other narratives can come in many different tones of internal voices. Like: A food boss, nagging for the inconvenient eating to be over with. That might sound like, "you don't have time for this. You have more important things to be attending to." A dealer, trading the present moment to construct an imaginary future. That might sound like, "if you eat this now you can run it off later" or "you'll make up for this tomorrow. Juice cleanse starts tomorrow." Being a food lover is practicing ending the war over food. Beneath all the voices, there's a more full and unalloyed body experience to be tuned in to. And, when it comes to eating, that body experience is probably a pleasurable one to be tuned to. Eating is a full-fledged sensory experience to savor - smells, tastes, textures, feels... Eating is pleasurable by design. The feelings of joy and pleasure are systemic biochemical mechanisms in the body. They exist beyond the conscious control of a sole individual. The body experiences related to eating are pleasurable for important reasons. Bodies are acting to keep us alive, and eating is a fundamental necessity of life. Your body (i.e., biology) rewards life-serving behavior with feel-good chemicals. Under normal conditions, when we eat, hormonal messages are sent to unlock dopamine in the brain. Dopamine's primary function is to promote pleasure and reward. By the biochemical facts, eating feels good. If the bosses and bargainers in your thoughts are telling you otherwise, like that eating is wrong, bad, or doesn't feel good, those voices may be shielding you from the full biological story. Food isn't the enemy- your choices, however, may be. Make healthy choices and ENJOY!

14.01.2022 ASK YOURSELF WHY Understanding exactly why you are doing something, whether it is choosing healthier food options or exercising will motivate you to make those a priority over other things. Asking yourself why you are doing something develops a deeper connection to that thing as the reasoning behind the 'why' reveals a goal.... Why do you exercise or choose healthier foods? To look better? To feel better? To lose weight? All of those things are goals that we can achieve and asking yourself WHY turns your ACTIONS into steps to achieving those GOALS. Next time you are lacking motivation, ask yourself why you are doing what you're doing and smash those goals.

12.01.2022 There's always been a debate within the fitness about whether or not people should be watching what they eat and drink over the Christmas and New Years period... Here's a blueprint for holiday period success: The 4 Fs 1. Family- ENJOY the extra time with your family, the terrible jokes that get told at Christmas lunches and the backyard cricket ... 2. Friends- ENJOY activities with your friends 3. Fun- ENJOY all the fun times you get experience at this time of year 4. Food- ENJOY the food! All of it! Enjoy the meat, the veggies, the salads and the desserts Notice the ENJOY part in each of the Fs? That should be the main take away from this. The memories we make at this time of year from spending time with family, friends and the delicious food we're fortunate enough to eat is something that can last a lifetime. As long as you're ENJOYING yourself, whatever form that comes in- Eating healthy or ripping into that cake, you're doing it right. And know that your healthy habits and the gym are waiting for you when it's all said and done. ENJOY your Christmas and New Years period- Tick off those 4 Fs and you are GUARANTEED holiday success!

11.01.2022 Who’s ready to ‘Feel The Burn’ throughout the holidays Here’s our Christmas Timetable

11.01.2022 Let's talk about setting goals! In our challenges here we take a good look at outcome goals vs behaviour goals. I'm sure you've heard the saying 'It's about the journey, not the destination.' Well, that saying is correct!... Outcome goals are goals that state WHAT we want but not WHAT to do to achieve them: Run a certain time for a 5km Squat a particular amount of weight Lose a specific amount of kilograms Behaviour goals are the action plan to put in place that will get you on your way to achieving your outcome goals: Run a certain time for a set amount of days per week for the next month or so- gradually increasing speed and duration Squat a certain amount of times per week with a focus on progressive overload and technique Eat a particular amount of food each day and exercise each day We tend to get disheartened if we only look at the outcome goals and not the behaviour goals. This is why a lot of weightloss challenges don't have a high success rate and why we focus on lifestyle changes and habits to create a better version of you. We need that action plan in place to be certain we are taking the right steps towards what we want to achieve. So when it gets to those New Years resolutions- make sure you have those behaviour goals in writing to stick to those outcomes!

11.01.2022 PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS: Do you need them? This answer may shock you...... It depends. I remember when I first joined a gym. I went to a supplement store and bought protein powder straight away, thinking it was the 'secret sauce' to gaining muscle and getting strong! Little did I know that everything else you eat happens to matter too... See if you fall into any of the following: IF you know you have enough protein from your meals each day then no, you don't need to spend money on protein supplements. IF you know you can add more protein into your meals each day then no, you don't need to spend money on protein supplements, just add more protein into your meals. IF you struggle with overall protein intake then yes, try protein supplements. IF you're always on the go and would like the convenience of something relatively filling that you can have while you're on your way to work then yes, try protein supplements. Just keep in mind that we want to try and source our protein from whole foods as much as possible before moving into the realm of supplements.

07.01.2022 WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT YOUR FOOD? Centuries ago, more people were more connected to food. Humans gathered or produced much food much more individually. There was more common knowledge and understanding of the resources, time, and labor that's demanded of producing our food. For many people now that connection to food has faded.... What's the state of your connection to your food? Do you raise your food? Catch it? Know where it comes from? Understand how it came to be? Know the people who produce it? When you're disconnected from food, it can be harder to make healthy choices. The more you know about where your food comes from and how it gets to you, likely the more thoughtful you'll want to be in making food choices. Further, with understanding of food stories, healthy food choices will make more sense. With awareness of the big picture, you'll have a deeper and clearer understanding of what and why healthy, nourishing foods are that way.

04.01.2022 Burning Movements Slam Ball A therapeutic movement for some, the slam ball will get the heart rate up and use the whole body!

03.01.2022 New Year, New You? Let's have a good look at New Years Resolutions and how to make them stick! Did you know that around 80% of resolutions end up failing? ... And do you know why? Because they're either: 1. Too general. 2. Too outcome focused. So, how do we get our resolutions to stick? Lets make our goals specific! Too general and there's too many ways out of it. Lets make our goals behaviour focused! Outcome based goals can quite often be out of our control... However, we can control our daily behaviours and actions that can lead to a better, healthier life. If we focus on SPECIFIC, daily BEHAVIOURS then we don't need to worry about losing motivation along the way to achieving our goals because we will have HABITS and DISCIPLINE to take those small steps each day. From the team at Burn, we hope you've had a lovely Christmas and start your 2021 in the best way possible!

03.01.2022 Get some sun into your life Most of us, especially if we work inside, don't get enough exposure to the sun and miss out on many of the benefits it brings us! Did you know that sun exposure helps you sleep?... Your body creates melatonin which is essential for sleep and it starts to produce more as it gets darker. If you are able to get yourself out into the sun for some light aerobic activity in the morning studies show that it will lead to a better sleep as it helps regulate your circadian rhythm by giving the body stronger signals of when to produce more melatonin. One thing to try this week: Each morning expose yourself to as much natural sunlight as you can for 10 to 20 mins, whether walking or jogging. Each night decrease exposure to artificial light such as televisions, phones and lights in your home and watch your sleep and energy levels improve!
