Strength and Conditioning
The purpose of strength and conditioning and the way it is pursued is incredibly variable and must be personalised to the individual exercising. It provides a means of not only reaching great health and fitness outcomes, but a way of discovering how amazing our bodies really are. Currently, Australia’s exercise recommendations for health and wellbeing are to accumulate 150-300 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity or 75 to 150 minutes of vigorous intensity physical activity each week. It is our goal to help people get there in an enjoyable way!
The health benefits of participating in strength and conditioning training include, but are not limited to:
- General health (sleep, cognitive function, bone density, balance, blood sugar levels and injury prevention)
- Cardiovascular health
- Mental health
- Sports performance
- Weight loss
Our favourite ways to help you achieve these goals include:
- Getting you strong in the gym. We have access to such great gym equipment that we can change things up as much as we need.
- Exercising outside and getting some fresh air. With a park within a 5 minute walking distance, we can get super creative!
How can puzzles help?
The most important thing is that exercise is enjoyable. After all, the best exercise is the exercise that gets done.
