01.05.2022 Step 1 of 4 of the new upgrade: complete

28.04.2022 While the news of having to shut up shop has hit us hard, we’re more concerned with those of you who now can’t get into the gym to get the many benefits that exercise gives. For those that need to exercise for your sanity, your mental health, and your stress management - we got you. We’re spending today filming a LOT of exercises you can do at home with minimal or no equipment. Don’t underestimate how difficult and effective at home workouts can be - especially when you have mastermind programmers behind them #WatchThisSpace

24.01.2022 Hello everyone. Just a quick gym update. We have performed some light maintenance on some of the equipment, so you may find that the machines are a bit smoother.... Also, we've started a clean up of the gym, which will be ongoing until the facility is sparkling clean. Today we dropped off a trap bar and 190kg of bumper plates. The bumpers are the coloured plates that range from 5-25kg. For anyone interested, these should be the plates to use when performing any Olympic lifts or if any lifting that you're doing requires dropping of the bar from any position, like when doing jerks or missing a squat and you need to bail out. We will be bringing in a proper Olympic bar so that those kinds of lifts can be done safely without risk of injury to wrists. Anyone who would like to learn the fundamentals of Olympic lifting (or any lifts you're struggling with), please let us know and I (Luke) will be happy to help. The Bosu Balls and the Swiss Balls have been pumped up to their correct PSI, so they should feel a lot better to use now. This week we will also be bringing in a dedicated dip station and a seated Scott (preacher) curl station.

20.01.2022 SAMMY J FIT IS UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP (Warning - long (and potentially boring) post ahead haha). Myself and my partner Luke have been lucky enough to take over ownership of Sammy J Fit, with tomorrow (Monday) being our first day on the job!...Continue reading

20.01.2022 Well I know some people who must have already figured this little fact out

19.01.2022 **URGENT ANNOUNCEMENT** You may have heard the announcement Prime Minister Scott Morrison has made this evening. A far as we are currently aware, Sammy J Fit will have to close its doors in accordance with the forced closure being implemented within in the next 48 hours. ... For all of you that have an active membership, we will be in contact directly with you tomorrow to see how you are affected and how we can help. We have an established online training platform that we will offer as part of your membership which is inclusive of many at home workout options. We will also write more personalised workout and nutrition plans for you should you prefer. We will be in touch shortly and if you have any questions or concerns, please contact me on either 0487 208 346, send this page a DM, or email me on [email protected]. I hope that none of you are affected too badly in this troubling time. Our thoughts are with you if you are and we will endeavour to assist in any way we can. Luke & Zoe.

16.01.2022 Hi everyone! I thought I would make a quick post now that I'm back from teaching in America. I'm Zoe's husband, the other new owner of SammyJ Fitness, soon to be re-branded as the Institute of Physical Culture.... You'll see me in the gym daily, working on the new IOPC and also our education business, Muscle Nerds. Just to tell you a little about myself, I have been training for over 30 years, competing in American football, track & field, powerlifting, bodybuilding, grappling, strongman, and other odds and ends of sport. I have also been a personal trainer and strength coach for two decades, as well as a performance nutritionist for the past decade. Over the past decade I've been an international lecturer in the realms of sport and strength performance, general population training, performance nutrition, and health. I was lucky enough to have been mentored by the late Charles Poliquin, and other industry giants such as Dr James LaValle, Dr Bryan Walsh, Paul Chek, and many others. Our other business, Muscle Nerds, is an internationally known education company, with over 1000 students in every corner of the World. That being said, education is at the heart of everything we do, including our online training, our massage and treatment clinics in Bulimba and in the city, and now at the IOPC. There will be some exciting additions to the gym, so we don't want any of you to be alarmed. The changes will only be positive, and we will aim to bring you a higher level of service at the facility. We have been reviewing the feedback on things that you would like at the gym, and we will be working hard to cater to your requests, as well as some other new items and services that we will be including in your membership. As well, the gym will be getting a major clean up, and any equipment that isn't working to standard will be fixed, once I am cleared to leave our home. Myself and our staff will be offering FREE consultations to anyone who would like to sit down and review any personal goals and concerns, so that we can make sure you have the best guidance and direction on your goals. We will also be offering informative mini-seminars on nutrition, training, and lifestyle that will be included in your membership. We truly believe in education, and we hope that you all will take interest in what we have to offer to you. We want to make sure that you are blown away by what we have to offer you, and we want to make this the best damned gym in all of Australia. We would love to hear any suggestions you may have for improvements in the gym, and we want to make sure your voice is heard, respected, and acted upon, as long as we have the capacity to do it. Our main goal is to make this gym a community like no other, and an experience like no other. Your level of involvement in this is entirely up to you. I hope to meet you all very soon, but please feel free to reach out to myself, or to Zoe, in the meantime.
