As you should all know by now, Saturday 8th December is our Gym Christmas Party. In order to allow everyone plenty of time to get ready and to make sure we are there to greet you, the gym will be closing early at 4:00pm.

Don’t forget for those that are coming that the Theme is Heroes/Heroines, so we look forward to seeing you dressed up and ready to have a fun night.

Festivities start from 7:00pm upstairs at the Town Hall Hotel on Darling St. See you there!

A last minute change tonight - Darren (who normally runs the Tuesday class) will take the 6:30pm boxing class tonight as Justann has had to travel interstate at short notice. Justann should be back on board next week.

This week’s training tip comes from Personal Trainer and dual Olympian Justann Crawford:

Boxing is an explosive, anaerobic sport. The act of throwing punches, round after round, while contending with a pad partner, is the next best thing to real boxing. As a boxer, you must punch, slip and weave with split second movements and reactions. A boxer must be prepared to fight with intensity round after round. Your body will be conditioned to throw explosive punches from the start to the end. Come learn to box the right way.

Justann teaches the Thursday evening boxing class, or you if you would like to book him for one on one session please see reception.

Just a reminder that the GYM CHRISTMAS PARTY is coming up only a few Saturday’s away on December 8th!

This year we have decided to have a theme: Heroes. It does not have to be superheroes - your childhood or current Hero/Heroine will do just fine! So get thinking and prepare your costume. There will be prizes for both the best male and best female costume.

See You there on the night!
