25.01.2022 Gym CLOSED tomorrow TUESDAY 9:30am - 1:30pm due to Ergon Power Outage and Maintenance in the Building.

24.01.2022 Let's kick our Fridays off right with the second installment of Emma's Top Tips! Tip #2? Hit your step goal everyday! (yes even on weekends ) We are all about creating healthy habits that are sustainable! Happy Friday Powerhouse Family

24.01.2022 Have you ever felt like you should join a gym but lacked the motivation? Or perhaps you don’t feel like you could squeeze into tight Lycra to compete with the young fit Gym Bunnies? Well I did too, but last year, wanting to give my hubby some support as he needed to try and lose weight, I decided to give it a go. Powerhouse Gym was much better than I expected. I was shown around the equipment and assessed as to what I was wanting to achieve. I recently bought a Scooter/Motor...bike and realised that my arms and legs were not as strong as I would like to counteract the weight of the vehicle. I work on the machines that have weights and notice a difference in muscle strength and tone ( even the bingo wings are getting tighter, whats not to like!) It’s a nice relaxed workout and everyone is too busy working on their own programs to bother about what I am doing or wearing. There are many fitness classes too so you can pick what suits you best if you don’t want to use the fitness machines. My personal love is the Latin Dance class on a Wednesday night, a combination or dancing, great music and a good workout with plenty of fun. "There is something to suit everyone at Powerhouse and my fear of Gyms is history". - Val Gumley

22.01.2022 Wishing all our Powerhouse and Yaralla Lifestyle members and their loved ones a blessed and prosperous New Year! Welcome to the Chapter 2021 of your fitness success story!

21.01.2022 If our HEALTH is so IMPORTANT, why don't we make FITNESS a PRIORITY? There's an idea called the FOUR BURNERS THEORY, where you imagine your life as a four-burner stove. Each burner represents FRIENDS, FAMILY, HEALTH and WORK.... Its been said that if you want to be successful, you have to turn off at least one of your burners. And if you want to be super successful, you need to turn off at least two. Last year my WORK (and BUSINESS) have been turned up to a point you'd experience third degree burn if you got close!. My friends, family and health burners are simmering if not completely turned off. My HEALTH burner used to run HOT. I took on Pole Fitness (and won 2 competitions) and workout in my gym 5 days a week whilst on strict intermittent 5:2 fasting. My body was on peak performance for the sport I chose. Then I bought Powerhouse (made my dream of being an Entrepreneur a reality), COVID hits (as all) and my (day) WORK became a little bit more demanding. So my HEALTH, FRIENDS and FAMILY burners where turned down a lot more than F would have wanted. This year I have committed to get my HEALTH (and Fitness) and FAMILY burners turned up a bit high. I have committed to compete (and win) my first body building competition in Sept at the tender age of 50 and also booked my annual leaves to spend quality time with my partner and kids. So it boils down to your current life priorities. Remember there is a SEASON for EVERYTHING. If life does not allow you yet to FOCUS on getting the body or fitness you desire, just keep your HEALTH (both physical and mental) burner simmering and not completely turned off. Trust this helps to reflect where you are in your fitness journey and commit to action that focusses on your health and fitness. Together, let's create the next chapter of your fitness success story - Marites Flores Transformation Specialist. Welcome to Six Sigma Fit - Science Based and Results Driven Body Transformation Programmes for Busy Professionals.

17.01.2022 For many people, fitness is not about attempting to sculpt a chiselled six-pack or being able to run a marathon in under three hours. It’s simply about staying in good nick. Being able to say, without crossing your fingers, that you are a reasonably healthy adult. However, it can be hard to quantify exactly what that means, especially as what constitutes good nick changes for people of different ages. Fortunately, Tim Wright, sport physiotherapist and the creator of Virgin ...Active’s Beyond Movement service, has devised a series of three tests that people in each age group from their 20s to their 70s should be able to do if they are in good physical condition. You need to be able to tick all three boxes to pass the test, as the trio of components are designed to test different aspects of fitness cardiovascular fitness, strength and mobility. In your 50s Run at a moderate pace for 60 seconds without stopping Do five burpees without stopping Lower yourself into a cross-legged sitting position on the floor without using your hands and then return to standing In your 60s Regularly take more than 10,000 steps a day Perform 12 bodyweight squats without stopping Touch your fingertips together with one hand over your shoulder and the other behind your back In your 70s Walk a mile in less than 16 minutes Climb a flight of stairs with 10 steps in under 30 seconds comfortably Rise to stand from a chair without using hands or arms and repeat 12+ times in 30 seconds www. powerhousefitness.com.au/membership Class bookings : https://secure.flexware.info/ Location : 23 Ocean Street Tannum Sands Phone : 07 4973 3444 Email :[email protected] Reception: Mon to Sat 8-11am; Mon to Thurs 4-7pm Seek medical advice before engaging in rigorous exercise. https://www.coachmag.co.uk//fitness-challenges-for-every-a

12.01.2022 Women's Health Week Sept 7-13 Australians have now been coping with the COVID-19 pandemic and all the lockdowns, measures and uncertainties that have come with it for almost half a year. During this time many women have neglected to take care of their own health, particularly skipping regular health checks. This week (September 7 13) marks Women’s Health Week, an annual nationwide campaign organised by Jean Hailes. This year’s focus is on bringing back attention to general h...ealth issues and disorders among Australian women. It is also about empowering women and reminding them to prioritise their own health. Jean Hailes has a vision to create a healthier future for all women by highlighting topics that often get overlooked including menopause, fertility and violence against women. Women’s health is something we’re passionate about here at Powerhouse, we urge all Australian women to prioritise their health and go and see your local GP if you have any concerns.

08.01.2022 Queensland Seniors Week Aug 15-23 Exercising over 65 is not just about your heart. You also need to work on your strength, balance and coordination. If you're over 65 and exercising regularly, give yourself a pat on the back.... Being active is one of the best ways to boost your odds of ageing well, by keeping you mentally healthy and free of disease and disability. And it helps even if you start late in life. But many older exercisers do only one activity and risk missing out on some important health benefits. That's a key finding of a recent study, published in the Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport, which looks at the leisure time physical activity of more than 22,000 older Australians. The study, which focused specifically on those over 65, shows around two thirds of older people are exercising, with most of them favouring aerobic activity usually walking. Just over 45 per cent reported walking, with more than half of these people reporting walking as their sole activity. Only 2.6 per cent of people in the study reported a combination of balance, strength and aerobic (heart and lung fitness) activities. So what are older Australians doing? Walking was the most popular activity, reported by 45.6 per cent of the elderly, followed by: bowls (9.4 per cent) aerobics/callisthenics (9.1 per cent) golf (7.7 per cent) swimming (6.4 per cent) gym workouts (5.2 per cent) cycling (3.2 per cent) tennis (2.9 per cent) dancing (2.1 per cent) fishing (2 per cent) tai chi (1.4 per cent) weight lifting (1.2 per cent) yoga (1.1 per cent) For those who did two activities in the past 12 months, the most common combinations for men were walking with either golf (13 per cent) lawn bowls (8.1 per cent) swimming (6.8 per cent) cycling (5.4 per cent) The most common combinations for women were walking with aerobics/callisthenics (7.3 per cent) swimming (5.5 per cent) lawn bowls (3.7 per cent) golf (2.7 per cent) www. powerhousefitness.com.au/membership Class bookings : https://secure.flexware.info/ Location : 23 Ocean Street Tannum Sands Phone : 07 4973 3444 Email :[email protected] Reception: Mon to Sat 8-11am; Mon to Thurs 4-7pm Seek medical advice before engaging in rigorous exercise
