25.01.2022 Over the next four Tuesdays I will be running free trial sessions LIVE on ZOOM, to introduce people to primal movement and movement exploration. If you are interested send me a Direct message, or comment below under this post and I will get in touch with you to secure your spot. Train from home using nothing but Bodyweight. #emfnerang #emfperformanceandrecoverycentre #fitdad #nearly50 #primalmovement #primal #movementismedicine #movementculture #goldcoastfitness #homeworkouts #movementexploration #bnprimal #virtualtraining #trainathome #fitdads #onlinetraining #mobility #flexibility #bodyweightworkout @brettnugentpt

24.01.2022 Check out the next flow routine to learn at Grass Roots Movement ( Tues 6pm Park Lake State School/ Pacific Pines), a great BJJ mobility routine that I spent hours on, trying to get smooth. Still rusty but a bunch of new movements that start from the seated 90/90 position, and expand on it.

23.01.2022 Just a reminder that Grass Roots Movement is taking a hiatus for a while as I transition into a full time Personal Trainer career at EMF Performance and Recovery Centre in nerang....so no class tonight, or throughout June. But heres a great clip that shows some basics that you can explore in your own home, nice and slowly, and use for daily movement exploration.

22.01.2022 Just thought I would get on the golden sand, and connect with Tangaroa( the sea) before my Movement class arrived. It’s hard to believe that I’m on a beach awaiting clients for a movement session. 12 months ago I was standing at a bench in a boat building factory sanding varnish and wondering how and when the universe was going to give me what I wanted. But I’ve been waiting for 46 years. Took a chance and became a PT. Now the passion I have for healthy living, and the social... butterfly that I am, are tools for my business. I jumped off the cliff man, and still flying high. How are you steering your current life, towards the life you want?? Do you have a side hustle that your continually working on?? Do you even know what your passion is?? .... Time is fleeting. #emfnerang #emfperformanceandrecoverycentre #fitdad #nearly50 #primalmovement #primal #movementismedicine #movementculture #goldcoastfitness #homeworkouts #movementexploration #bnprimal #virtualtraining #trainathome #fitdads #onlinetraining #mobility #flexibility #bodyweightworkout @brettnugentpt

21.01.2022 My top 5 Bodyweight movements.

21.01.2022 Luke Garfield I don’t think you know how smooth you are getting in your flows brother!!! Luke picking up this complicated flow within the hour session, a great demonstration to how his body is accepting of new movement patterns after almost a year of training.

20.01.2022 Made this little diary of the progression my son has made over the past 8 weeks, as today he was back at school. With only 5-10mins of training every 2-3 days he didn’t feel pressured, in fact he would ask me When are we training next? So I kinda just spoon fed it, and now he has these tools for life. I will continue of course, but it’s pretty cool to see what tiny regular habits can do, especially for a young boy who is not far off his teenage years. Martial arts are a great vessel for physical, mental and spiritual growth.

20.01.2022 As part of my PRIMAL HIIT membership ($15p/week) which includes 3 x live ZOOM classes per week ( and access to all previously recorded classes), the 3rd class of the week is devoted to mixing Primal Movement with Martial Arts. Interested in trying a free class? Just click the booking link for PRIMAL HIIT in my bio or DM me for the link. Tomorrow Sunday 8am Qld AU time. Learn to fight and move well, from home. #mma #kickboxing #selfdefense #fightclub #fitdad #nearly50 #primalmovement #primal #movementismedicine #movementculture #goldcoastfitness #homeworkouts #movementexploration #bnprimal #virtualtraining #trainathome #fitdads #onlinetraining #mobility #flexibility #bodyweightworkout @brettnugentpt

20.01.2022 A big thanks to Sean for allowing me to post this. A recording from one of our 1 to 1 sessions on Zoom. Taking Sean through key elements of training at home. From picking equipment up off the floor, to focusing on the less glamorous stabiliser muscles, and initiating his mind/muscle connection. I love sharing my knowledge to others to ensure they reach their goals in fitness safely, especially Dads who may pass these tips onto their kids. If you think you would be interest...ed in a consultation call to discuss your goals and see if I can help please comment Interested below and I’ll get in touch. Online Coaching, Exercise Programming and Face to Face options available. #fitdad #nearly50 #primalmovement #primal #movementismedicine #movementculture #goldcoastfitness #homeworkouts #movementexploration #bnprimal #virtualtraining #trainathome #fitdads #onlinetraining #mobility #flexibility #bodyweightworkout @brettnugentpt See more

19.01.2022 As my journey as a full time PT continues, I feel privileged to get to meet people who have such a high standard of quality training, when it comes to human movement patterns. Especially when it comes to taking a functional tool like a kettlebell and challenging not only your strength, cardio and co-ordination, but then putting all the components together to find YOUR flow. That’s quality training.

19.01.2022 Very cool session last night with heeeeeeeeaps of different movements. Bear complex, Frogger complex,Monkey complex, Revolving crab.... amongst others. A great night of exploration in movement. ... Luke Garfield Barry Mikaere Ottv Wirihana and Kylie... Well done! Now take it to the grass and play!! See more

16.01.2022 Last day of my job here before full time PT at #emfnerang and thought I would catch one of my Movement play smoko sessions... in a spray paint booth.... on the ground. This is why I love my movement journey, it’s unpretty, uncoordinated, clunky .... similar to my journey in learning Te Reo Mori ( Mori Language).... but these are where the highest levels of learning moments actually take place. The body and mind say What?!?.. we are doing this now?!?! Movement is everywhere. You just need to look for it.

14.01.2022 Barry Mikaere and I syncing tonight’s movement flow. Not bad for a couple of 46 year olds. Awesome my bro. You did amazing.

13.01.2022 Getting into some very slow FRC work to see where my hips are at first thing in the morning. This is no warm up or stretch. Just mindful activation and testing where I can and can’t go for now. Extending the front leg in my 90/90 is like a crawling zombie at this stage lol. But will try to improve it over time. Hips feel more soa ious after this.

13.01.2022 Variety is the Spice of Life Just a reminder training this week is postponed until next week ( Tuesday 9th -6pm Park Lake State School, Pacific Pines). But keep up your training. And when I say training ...... Just move.

13.01.2022 This is how my mind works, putting together #movement drills for my PRIMAL HIIT classes hahaha. If you wana hang out with me online and see how slow exploration of movement patterns turn into #highintensityintervaltraining then go to the link in my bio and click PRIMAL HIIT ZOOM classes. Book yourself in for a free session. Tues and Thurs 5pm Sun 8am QLD/Aus time. Become a paying member and you get access to all recorded classes on my Private Youtube channel ( if you can’t make the classes, you can still train with me!). Online private coaching available also.

13.01.2022 Our flow tonight.... sped up of course lol

12.01.2022 After my last client and class this is a park I stop by to chill at, and to have Sarah by #fleetwoodmac come on the radio as I pull up, it’s a sign to just sit back and listen to the song, and enjoy the moment. It’s the simple things in life. Reminds me of buying a CD back in the 80s and listening to a whole album doing nothing but reading the lyrics and credits. I DO NOT OWN THE RIGHTS TO THIS MUSIC - Sarah - Fleetwood Mac

12.01.2022 Just got this post from my 52 yr old client who is in the Online Coaching video I just posted. Talk about affirmation. Sharing my life experience and health knowledge for others to improve their lives, to both young and not so young lol. If you want to just talk about where ...and WHO ..you want to be, I’m happy to just listen. Message or comment for details. Thank Sean. #onlinetraining #onlinecoaching #emfnerang #emfperformanceandrecoverycentre #fitdad #nearly50 #primalmovement #primal #movementismedicine #movementculture #goldcoastfitness #homeworkouts #movementexploration #bnprimal #virtualtraining #trainathome #fitdads #onlinetraining #mobility #flexibility #bodyweightworkout @brettnugentpt

10.01.2022 I honestly can’t believe it’s been 10 days since I bought the #csirolowcarbdiet book and my whole outlook on meals has changed. I’m trying to get as many yummy vegetables in my meals now. Just need to work on portion size next lol. But this is sooooo good to kickstart my day and prepare for a great outdoor session I’ll be taking with @jaredgrantham and his crew later. #primal #movement #outdoorworkout #goldcoastfitness

09.01.2022 After a movement session with clients earlier, I have the option to sit with my kids and watch tv, or see if my daughter wants to move. With my daughter, I know she will follow for a little while, but eventually she will lead lol. I just want to move well, move playfully, and kids don’t think even have to think about it. If your looking for inspiration to move, just set the time and the environment, and your kids will show you the way.

06.01.2022 The journey that we’ve had in the past 6 to 7 months has been quite enlightening for not only for Sean, but also myself. To find out what works for a client to get them to look at the bigger picture. Longevity. To take into account their relationships, their occupation, their way of thinking, the expectations of themselves, the expectations others may have of them.....are all factors which can affect how you actually perform in the gym or even at home for your workouts. Habi...ts like meditation,affirmations, water, sleep, even inner chatter.... are all things that contribute to the person we are before we even step into the gym. If you do not have the self-discipline to make consistent changes every day to live out your potential. From 2 pushups to 27 with feet elevated This guy is proving his old self wrong for all the right reasons. Happy 53rd birthday Sean! See more

06.01.2022 Movement based Functional Strength workout tonight. 6pm Park Lake State School Pacific Pines

05.01.2022 Really proud of this guy. Just got into his 40s and has all these different movements under his belt. Combining 3 weeks of movement flows into a single flow. So much nutritious movement here that can easily be used as a morning mobility routine, or sped up for a cardio routine, or slowed right down for a fantastic motor control, balance and strength routine. Well done Luke Garfield. Be the weirdo! - Ido Portal.

04.01.2022 A video of me food prepping ( is it still prepping if you eat it straight away? Lol). Showing how, with all the right ingredients, a great nutritious lunch that supports my functional and Primal Movement training, can be done in less than 5 mins. Took even less to consume it lol. Like #atomichabits author James Clear says Motivation is Overvalued. Environment Often Matters More.

04.01.2022 Wooohooo. It’s official. 2 clients. 200bpm CRACKED! Lol. My BPM record has finally gotten over the 200 mark. Not bad for 2 x 10 minute workouts and a warm up. My pleasure boys. #emfhiit class Tuesday’s 9am. Want some?... Come get Some! WoD1 - 100m run/ 10x dead ball shoulder throws/ 10 star jumps/ 10 push ups or burpees. 2 mins to complete. 30s rest x 4 rounds..... WOD 2- Assault bike 15 calories/ 10 x Dumbell thrusters/ 10xDumbell bicep curls in 2 mins. 30s rest x 4 rounds. Ouch. @andy_kirk_ @ EMF Performance and Recovery Centre

04.01.2022 From my home movies collection lol... Side Bear roll rides with my daughter. This time focusing on sharper dynamic leg kicks to bring my body back up to a seated position. Using my breath as I exert effort into each kick.

04.01.2022 Beautiful winter sun. Just 3 minutes to connect with the earth, the sun and my body. Moving through some bear/ Frogger/ monkey movement to test my mobility and flexibility. Hoping to share different styles of movement at my new job at EMF Performance and Recovery Centre in Nerang #emfnerang #movementculture

04.01.2022 Finally!!!!.... Some outdoor instruction!! Taking @jaredgrantham @iammandymaree @aliese_bridges through some movement training, on a beautiful sunny day at #miamibeach in the #goldcoast nice soft grass area to try some #animalflow and #gmbfitnesselements movements.
