06.06.2022 April Challenge Results When something seems so simple but can be so hard! Last month we challenge members to improve their balance by standing on one leg with their eyes closed for the accumulative time of 30min per leg. ... We had a few people commit to starting the challenge but only 1 member who achieved the target! Congratulations Erin for putting in the time and effort to get this challenge done.

23.05.2022 Another great Friday afternoon Boxing session today what an awesome way to finish the week before the social events get underway

17.05.2022 Are you consistently inconsistent with your training and diet? If so it's generally because of one simple thing you are not doing effectively!

13.05.2022 Check it out 8kg down after 6 months of hard work and consistency. Greg has also significantly improved the strength of his legs significantly reducing the pain he was having in his knees.... It’s all paying off, great job Greg!

26.04.2022 Best shirt going around

18.04.2022 March Challenge Results Talk about smacking a challenge out of the park! We had 12 people hit the target of 1000 Lunges for the month and another 2 get more than 2000. ... Well done Annie & Taye for cracking double the set amount and everyone else who hit the target. Great to see everyone working so hard!

25.01.2022 Welcome back 9am classes & boxing! Starting next week (10/8/20) Here is our updated timetable which includes our new 9am sessions and boxing classes. ... Interested in joining? Contact us to get started or take advantage of our 3 day trial. #groupfitness #boxingclasses #woombye #fitnessclasses #sunshinecoasthealthandfitness #personaltraining

25.01.2022 Christmas Opening Hours Here is our timetable over the next fortnight, classes will be as per normal during these opening hours. All extended family is welcome to come along for a workout while visiting on holidays, complimentary. ... Opening as per normal from Saturday 2nd January!

25.01.2022 NEW CLASS - FRIDAY’S 5.30pm As we re-open Friday afternoons we are also excited to announce that we will also be running a new class at 5.30pm which will also start Friday 15th November 2020. This new class is called STRENGTHZEN and is the brain child of Isabel.... This class is a fusion of yoga and strength training and aims to build dynamic and static strength, balance and stability. Solely through body weight you will work your arms, legs, shoulders, back, and core. It´s perfect for anyone who wants to build up strength and get fit without lifting weights and gain more body control and awareness. Basically mindful calisthenics.

24.01.2022 Squats are a staple in any exercise program and are key in developing strength in your legs. No matter what level you are at with your squats here are a few important factors that go into making your squats not only safe but effective. Here I am demonstrating a sit-to-stand where you squat to a chair or stool which is great for beginners or anyone needing to work on their technique. Starting with a sit-to-stand allows you to break down the movement and check/correct your posi...tioning throughout the squat. Give it a go yourself! #squattechnique #squats #legstrength #personaltraining #gym #exercises #lowerbody #woombye #hinterland

24.01.2022 November’s Challenge Results Novembers goal was to ride 100km by the end of the month (to the Gabba). It was a lengthy commitment and meant members were having to spend a lot of extra time in the gym to get this one done. We had 7 legends who managed to smash it out and hit the 100km so a big congratulations to these guys for hitting the set target.... Special mentions go to: Brendan Kelbie - 180km for the month is a monster effort on top of all his other training and is the distance in a full ironman Peter Duncombe - for hitting the 100km goal first and for reaching a total of 150km in a month Great job guys, keep up the great work!

24.01.2022 What a beautiful day... for hill sprints

24.01.2022 Talking about weight loss... For some the process is easy, for others it’s complicated but at the heart of it all lies one rule that applies to us all. Not achieving this one rule and sustaining it will result in 0 results and a yo-yo effect in your efforts.... Reach out if you’d like to understand this concept more!

23.01.2022 Michael & Huon didn’t know they wanted to do a 1000 reps today until they got to the gym Well done fellas and to all the ladies who smashed this out in the morning session

23.01.2022 Welcome to October’s Goal! This month we are challenging members to learn a new skill in skipping and to do this we are introducing 3 different levels for members to achieve depending on their current abilities. Goal 1: 1000 skips in total for the month - for those who can’t skip or aren’t comfortable with it... Goal 2: 100 double unders in total for the month - this is for those that can skip Goal 3: 10 double under in a row - this is for those that can do a few double unders but not one after the other Don’t just stop at one goal either, if you achieve one before the end of the month it’s time to level up! Here is Brenton & Cal giving it a red hot crack early on

23.01.2022 Love your work ladies

23.01.2022 Exercising plays a vital role in our overall health and wellbeing and shouldn't just be considered for it's physical or physique benefits. Jesse provides why exercise is great practical strategy to improve acute anxiety and help manage long-term anxiety. Connect Exercise Physiology

23.01.2022 Yesterday we uploaded our 100th workout on our online training platform. It’s been awesome to be able to offer these daily workouts to this group. The best thing however is seeing them work so hard to not only keep up their fitness but actually improve it during the last couple of months with no access to the gym. Our online training platform will continue to provide new workouts and support each and every week allowing you to train anywhere, anytime.... A big congratulations to those in this group for your hard work over these last 100 days #onlinefitness #onlinepersonaltraining #thelocalgym #fitnesssupport #sunshinecoast #woombye #onlinefitnessgroup #noequipmentexercises

22.01.2022 September’s Goal Results Our dish hold proved to be a difficult one with only 3 people successfully reaching 20min for the month. The dish hold is a very challenge exercise for the core and is very hard to do for long periods of time. We think 90sec was the longest hold in one effort! ... Congratulations to Brendan, Taye & Kate for hitting September’s goal. Not only did these 3 reach 20min but Brendan and Taye got over 30min while Kate got to 25min. Massive effort and great to see so many others trying a new and difficult exercise!

22.01.2022 The boys smashing out some time on this months goal! September’s Goal This month we are challenging members to improve their core strength and endurance by setting the goal of hitting 20min (in total) doing a dish hold. ... A dish hold is a core exercise (a tough one at that) which pushes you to hold yourself slightly flexed away from the floor with your body straight. Think of a lower and straighter version of a V-Sit, and harder too. Break it up how ever you need to, work on your form and your positioning and give it a go. Good luck!

21.01.2022 Push ups are a fantastic strength exercise for your upper body that can be done so many different ways. Another great thing is they can be made easier or harder to suit your current abilities. No matter what level you do your push ups though there are some key points to focus on to make sure you are doing them with the best technique possible. Doing so will mean you get more out of the exercise and you won’t develop pain or poor movement patterns along the way.

21.01.2022 December Challenge Results We challenged members in the last month of the year to do as many pull ups possible over the month, or simply achieve a pull up for the first time. The trainers had it out and our members all worked hard to achieve their goal. It was so good to see so many people improve so much and even achieve their first pull up. Congratulations to all of our members who worked hard to achieve their goal. ... #decemberchallenge #pullups #pullupchallenge #gym #groupfitness #personaltraining #privategym

20.01.2022 August Challenge Results In August we set the goal for members to hit 10km on the rower. We had 11 members complete the goal which was awesome to see for our first challenge back since re-opening. ... We also had a couple of efforts that exceeded the 10km goal from Kim who doubled the goal with 20km. Followed closely by Kate with 19.5km and Taye at 17.5km. Great job legends #fitnesschallenge #rowingchallenge #gymchallenge #personaltraining #sunshinecoastfitness #woombye

19.01.2022 Peter getting in early and taking the lead on this months challenge! This month it’s simple - the goal is to ride to the Gabba (100km) before the end of the month. Any level and can be broken up how ever possible. Let’s see how many we can get across the line!

19.01.2022 Jesse after telling him that we will be re-opening June 15, let’s just say he is excited! Are you?

18.01.2022 Our awesome member Michelle Eckles from Meditation Sunshine Coast has created a mini course on How To Practise Mindful Breathing and is offering it to you - FOR FREE! It only takes around 20 minutes to complete the mini course and is a combination of slides/audio/video and a PDF handout that shows you how to decrease feelings of overwhelm, anxiety and stress in 60 seconds by using this breathing technique. It’s also great for gaining clarity and focus. The mini course also i...ncludes info on: - Mindfulness & Meditation - The Benefits of Meditation - The Stress Response - How Meditation Works See more

10.01.2022 October’s Challenge Results Last month we challenged members to improve on their skipping fitness and abilities. We set 3 different levels for people to achieve based around what their abilities were. We had members who went from not being able to skip at all to skipping consistently and those who could skip doing double under’s, some of them consecutively.... Well done to all of those that pushed them selves to try something new. It was great to see so many people hit their targets over the month. Special mentions go to: Gil Wise - who managed to hit a massive 40 double under’s in a row. Brendan Kelbie - for smashing both skipping targets and reaching up to 14 double unders in a row Gary Kelbie - for hitting his skipping target and pushing himself to learn how to do double under’s even though he wasn’t much of a ‘skipper’ (in his words).

10.01.2022 Instead of focusing on what you can’t do, start focusing on what you CAN do!

08.01.2022 Keep your foot and ankle healthy and happy by giving it some love. Here are a couple of quick and easy things you can do to promote efficient movement, support good alignment and reduce chances of injury and disfunction. Having a healthier foot/ankle will also improve your lower body movements such a squats, lunges etc which will help lead to increased performance. 1. Calf Massage/Release - Massage your calf muscle (the whole thing) with a tennis ball or massage ball for up... to 60sec 2. Foot Massage - Massage the sole of your foot for up to 60sec 3. Arch/Calf Stretch - to stretch your calf and the arch of the foot be sure to get you toes and forefoot stretching back too Massage tip: When you find a tender spot hold it for a few seconds and practice some long deep breathes to encourage the muscle to relax before continuing on with the massage. #calfmassage #anklemobility #selflove #selfmassage #musclerelease #personaltraining #sunshinecoasthealthandfitness @ The Local Gym Woombye

06.01.2022 Veggies should be a huge part of your diet and one great way to incorperate more into your day is to make sure you’re adding veg to all your main meals, including breakfast! Not only will you be adding a ton more nutrients into your diet but you’ll find your meals will keep you satisfied for longer, helping you get from meal to meal without snacking (as much anyway). What’s your favourite veg for breakfast?

05.01.2022 Our latest Local Legend! The Local Legend is our member of the month. Chosen by our trainers for a variety of factors such as consistency, achieving a goal, training like a beast, supporting other members and simply being an absolute legend. Our local legend for August: Kate Robertson... Kate is our weapon of the month and our greatest legend in August. Not only does Kate train her butt off, but her consistency in her training week in week out is amazing. For someone who needs to leave classes early for work, Kate doesn’t use that as an excuse to not turn up, she pushes herself to do as much as she can in the time that she has and on top of that will turn up well before class just to get the extra work in. Kate is an encourager, always has a smile on her face and always strives to do her best. Well done Kate for your ongoing efforts, you’re a bloody legend! #memberofthemonth #sunshinecoast #locallegend #gym #workouts #personaltraining #groupfitness #memberofthemonth

05.01.2022 Mason smashing it out on the rower for this months Challenge! We’ve restarted our monthly challenges but this time with a difference.

04.01.2022 Doing exercises ‘properly’ and with correct technique is important, but when you are starting out or learning new movements you not only have to be patient but you have to expect to be a little off the mark to begin with. ‘Exercises’ & exercising is a skill that needs to be learned and then practiced over and over again to be improved before mastering. So don’t use ‘I can’t do that with perfect technique’ as an excuse to not do them. Be patient, practice it and move towards ...improving every week. If you’re unsure on certain techniques or what to focus on with an exercise then let us know, we’re here to help! #exercisetechnique #exercising #skills #improveyourself #personaltraining #sunshinecoasthealthandfitness #woombye

01.01.2022 Veggies again! This time we’re doing dinner Hope you’ve all been getting those veggies in for all your main meals? Can’t do wrong with stir fry’s
