Why Boot Camp you ask? The combination of a team atmosphere, intense full-body cardiovascular and strength workouts and fitness education make Boot Camp weight loss programs very effective at reducing excess body weight, improving cardiovascular endurance, increasing lean muscle mass and improving overall coordination and balance. Aside from partaking in effective and fun exercises you'll also join a social network of like minded men and women all working towards similar goals. You will receive body measurements and fitness testing pre and post Boot Camp so you can see the progress you've made over the 6 weeks! We also offer a personalized 6 week training programme for you to really ramp up your 6 week training plan which you can do over and above Boot Camp sessions, as well as a nutritional guideline to compliment your exercise plan. If you're interested in Boot Camp come in or phone us for more information. Our Boot Camp courses run in 6 week blocks, 3 days a week, based here in the Gym until Daylight Savings kicks in then we can get outdoors!.

Hi team!

As you may know, boxing has a ton of benefits - not only does it help with strength and fitness but it improves co-ordination. For example working the left side of the body engages the right side of the brain and visa versa.

Each month we are lucky enough to work with a group of amazing people who live with Parkinson's. We use foot work and gentle punching techniques to help with co-ordination and control and work on gentle arm and leg strengthening exercises.

Each visit I am blown away with the progress each of these ladies and gents continue to make. Many studies have shown how beneficial boxing can be for people who experience problems with balance and co-ordination but it's super exciting to see it first hand.

If you or anyone you know is interested in joining in please don't hesitate to get in touch with us, we meet here at the gym on the first and third Friday's of every month and the class is open to anyone who feels this may be beneficial. We offer this as a free service and ask that participants pop a gold coin into the Coastguard donation box at reception.

The gym that trains outside together! We had a bad run with weather in April but when the storms passed we got amongst the beautiful Autumn sunshine and took the crew up to the Pauanui Summit. If you haven't been, it's a must do! It can take anywhere from 25 - 50 minutes to reach the Summit, the track resembles a goat track in parts but trust me, the view, totally worth it. Don't get me wrong, we love weights and classes, but nothing beats the outdoors and we enjoying banding the team together and moving outdoors when we can. We're a social bunch for sure! Well done to everyone who made it along to the day!
