25.01.2022 Maddy LOVES the Versa Climber (and we love her smile!) Have you done a session with the climber yet? Next time you’re on it, sit lower (like a squat) and don’t use the handles, hold onto the frame and HELLO GLUTES

24.01.2022 More sunrises like this please Sadly this wasn’t taken today... but more like this are coming and there’s nothing more refreshing than starting your day with a workout while watching the sunrise #springhassprung #summeriscoming #goawayrain

24.01.2022 Trainer Profile - Sarah Being able to have the opportunity to work as a Personal Trainer is such an amazing roller coaster! Working with clients and being able to achieve their goals makes me smile more than you thought I could! I strive for that awesome sensation of being able to personally learn how each client loves to train and always finding new ways to push them each week (w/o them completing hating me of course )... I love getting to know people and making them laugh and enjoy their time at the gym. I definitely try to implement that into training and to ensure that exercise isn’t something to be afraid of, it’s there to look forward to. It’s an awesome experience, being able to bounce off each other’s personalities and create such a comfortable and sweaty environment to strive for bigger and better goals! I must say I am a very upbeat, bubbly typa gal so my brain is always working and thinking of funky, creative ways to train, which brings excitement to each session!

24.01.2022 Director Simon had the pleasure of attending the 2020 SAASTA Acadamy Awards, where we presented the Curriculum Excellence Award for Fitness and Sport and Recreation. We can’t wait to start back up again in 2021! #education #ourpassion

23.01.2022 PT Client Harvey has been working hard on his athletic development and performance this year under the guidance of Matt. This little burner of an exercise is focused on improving his take off speed and vertical power #personaltraining #athleticdevelopment #power

23.01.2022 Hannah’s here to tell you to go for a hike!! Get some sun, fresh air and move those legs... One of my favourite ways to keep active on the weekend is exploring new places and going out for long walks/hikes. It’s a fantastic way to keep active while spending quality time with family, friends or your partner! ... There are so many amazing places to explore in Adelaide, such as Morialta (which I'm lucky enough to live right around the corner from), Black Hill, Mount Lofty, Hallett Cove, or even Cleland National Park. Next time you head out for a big hike let me know... especially if you have any hidden hiking track gems! #hikinghannah #freshair #movethoselegs

22.01.2022 Saturdays with Sarah are always a busy morning! So why not spread out across the gym floor #saturdayswithsarah #busymornings #earlymorningsweat

22.01.2022 * Trainer Profile - Matt We all know Matt... remember when he had straight hair?! So we thought it was time to get to know him a little better... As a Trainer, my passion stems from helping others feel amazing about themselves, confident, happy and motivated! ... As I have always played sport (currently football with a background in Soccer) working with athletes is a HUGE love of mine! Training an Athlete is not just physical it’s a lot to do mentally and of course, hard work! Passing on my experience in athletics is a motivation of mine. If you haven’t noticed, I love putting a big smile on people’s face and ensuring people enjoy exercise rather then be scared or nervous of training! Training should be fun and always something to look forward too! There’s also something so special about helping people achieve goals in their health and fitness they never thought possible. It’s the best feeling. You can catch Matt in classes Monday - Friday and on the floor with his PT clients daily. You may also see him running the streets of Lightsview on his lunch break!

15.01.2022 Introducing an exciting addition to the PP family! Our mission is to inspire, motivate and educate our communities on living happy, healthy lifestyles and to do so we need incredible motivators, exceptional leaders and passionate trainers to lay the foundations. We welcome Jordan Tippins to the team who was successful in completing his Certificate III in Fitness during 2020 as part of the SAASTA AFL Aboriginal Academy delivered by Pushing Performance. It was throughout t...his course that Jordan displayed a commitment and willingness to help others, inspire his peers and is driven by a career in the fitness industry. It is without a doubt that he will be an incredible influencer and as a reward for his dedication Jordan was a successful recipient of the Pushing Performance Pathway scholarship. This means that Pushing Performance will fund Jordan’s ongoing training by completing his cert IV in fitness whilst gaining employment. This opportunity for Jordan is a testament to SAASTA and the job pathway opportunities they provide for young aboriginal people throughout South Australia. Here is a little more from Jordan himself Hey guys!! I’m Jordan and I am so excited to be joining the team at Pushing Performance; especially meeting all of the amazing members. I started my pathway to personal training this year and with Simon Lucas as my mentor as well as the support of the entire Pushing Performance team I have gained some incredible skills, expanded my knowledge and can’t wait to inspire the community. As a passionate footballer, playing for the central district football club, I have always had a big passion for fitness and living a healthy lifestyle from a very young age and that passion has only gotten bigger, so a career in the health, fitness and wellbeing industry is the ideal fit for me. I want to thank Simon and Jodie for giving me the opportunity to continue my skills and knowledge in such a motivating environment; I still have a lot to learn but I am so excited to be assisting everyone in smashing their fitness goals soon!!!!

13.01.2022 Trainer Profile - Leah Our longest running PT, Leah has a passion for helping her clients achieve their goals, no matter how big or small they might be... I love when my clients hit their goals and achieve what they’ve been aiming for, it’s the best feeling! ... I started working as a PT because I wanted to help inspire and motive people to feel amazing about themselves. Training has such a huge mental aspect to it and my goal has always been to help my clients achieve what they didn’t know they could and feel incredible while doing it. I believe not every session has to be your best, you just need to come in and be willing to do the work. That’s where the progress comes from! My claim to fitness fame is 12km on the Skiier unbroken! You can catch Leah running Group Training sessions, PT and external groups Monday - Thursday!

09.01.2022 Trainer Profile - Hannah Exercise for me isn’t solely based around aesthetic or physical goals, I love the way it makes me feel and how it can play a huge role in a persons mental well-being. The feeling you get after a good workout and the way it boosts your confidence when you lift heavier, or run that kilometre faster, is why I chose to be a personal trainer. ... I want to help as many people as I can to feel the same way as I do after a workout, and help their confidence and wellbeing grow because of it

04.01.2022 Our school based engagement programs are not just about instilling the foundations for improved health, fitness and well-being.
