21.01.2022 Our Men’s Health group classes are suitable for Men of all ages, backgrounds and fitness levels. We focus on social support, lifestyle change, physical and mental well-being. We’d like to give all men the opportunity to feel they can prioritise their health and well-being. That’s why we’ve included it all a range of cardio, resistance and restorative exercises, mindfulness practices and social activities that are delivered in a safe, comfortable and inclusive group-based setting.

21.01.2022 Exercising in the morning could reduce your risk of getting cancer more than doing your workout later in the day, according to recently published research. In the study, which was published in Cancer Epidemiology in September, the researchers analyzed data from 2,795 people divided into two control groups and two cancer groups. The results indicated that the protective effect against breast and prostate cancer was most significant in the people who exercised in the morning (between the hours of 8 a.m. and 10 a.m.). The results held even when the researchers adjusted for other factors, such as participants' sleep routines and meal timing.

21.01.2022 For many people, an essential part of any exercise regime is the music that accompanies it. Whether you’re a runner, a rower or a bodybuilder, there’s a good chance you have a favourite selection of tunes and some headphones to help you through. The right choice of music can inspire, energise and provide much needed distraction. Elite athletes of every discipline are often seen deep in thought, their ears covered by snazzy headphones, in the moments ahead of a big match or race. So what is it about music that helps us to push our bodies towards or through physical discomfort?

14.01.2022 The human hand is remarkable. Not only does it allow us to throw, grab, climb and pick things up, it can also be a measure of health. Using hand-grip strengthwhich assesses the amount of force a person can generate with their gripresearchers can not only understand a person’s strength, they can also know the rate a person is ageing and even diagnose certain health conditions, such as heart disease and cancer. Grip strength is typically tested using a dynamometer, which a pe...rson grasps the same way they’d hold a glass, with the elbow tucked into the side and positioned at right angles. The instrument is then squeezed for about five seconds. The test is performed on both hands, usually three squeezes on each hand, and then the average is taken. Men aged 20 to 30 typically have the greatest strength, while women over 75 have the lowest. In people aged 20 to 29 years old, average grip strength is 46 kilograms of force for men and 29 kilograms of force for women. This decreases to 39 and 23.5, respectively, by the time a person reaches 60 to 69 years of age. See more

09.01.2022 Super Susie... Super smiley & super supportive! Here’s what her clients say

08.01.2022 The best exercise for many of us may not be the briefest, according to a provocative new study comparing the head-to-head health benefits of short, intense, interval training with those of longer, gentler workouts. The study, published in Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise, finds that each approach to exercise has advantages, but the impacts on blood pressure, body fat and other aspects of metabolism may be greater after standard, half-hour, moderate workouts than eyeblink-quick interval training.

05.01.2022 While we have had a very good run in the last 6 weeks, caring for a little human is not an easy job! I’m grateful for the support of my husband, our families and the legendary team at MIM, who continue to ease the burden and make the adjustment that much easier. Recognising that SELF-CARE is just as important as caring for your baby - you can’t pour from an empty cup! ... For me, Exercise is a huge component of that self care routine... just ask my husband how cranky I get when I miss the gym! Let’s just say, that the cracks begin to show Learning to let go of routine and tend to the demands of this small human has been a challenge, but a little bit of movement each day definitely helps me to stay on top Repost from @exerciseright_aus using This week is PANDA Week - Perinatal Anxiety & Depression Australia. #PANDAWeek2020 @PANDANational For the last 15 years, PANDA has been raising awareness and reducing the stigma about perinatal mental illness. 1 in 5 expecting or new mothers and 1 in 10 expecting or new dads will experience anxiety and/or depression, affecting around 100,000 families across Australia every year.

03.01.2022 We’ll be back tomorrow

01.01.2022 Right. We're a couple of weeks into 2021, and you've embarked on a new, high-intensity exercise regime. Full of enthusiasm, you launched into boot camp, went to your first spinning class or started running up and down hills in the bush. But afterwards, instead of basking in a warm post-workout glow, you felt close to tears. A session of intense exercise commonly makes us feel pretty good it boosts positive emotions and lowers negative ones.... Yet this isn't the case for everyone, and not all the time. And if it sounds familiar, you are certainly not alone.
