Mostly As: Fast and Furious

The ultimate Fitness Fanatic, #nevermissaMonday is your mantra, and you’re commonly known to show up even on a (wait for it…) Saturday! You’re a regular at the gym, and the “locals” know you on a first name basis… they know you so well, in fact, they’d never dare speak to you - at least mid session. You like to keep your head down, and in the game, from the moment you step through the gym door. Your dedication, focus and discipline are massive strengths, and allow you to continue pushing yourself to new heights and achieving your goals. But don’t forget, rest is productive too. Allow that body some time to rest and recover - it’s all about balance baby!

Mostly Bs: Commitment-Phobe

You’re the friend who regularly smoke-bombs your way out of the party.

You know all too well you feel fab after sweating it out… Yet you remain afraid of commitment. You swing from being determined to stick to a weekly schedule one week, to never showing up the next. The gym isn’t a huge priority right now. Let’s just say, if someone offered you a Vino or a Vinyasa class, you’d take the wine any day of the week.

And good on you for living in the moment. Just remember, in order to live your best life and stay happy and healthy, you have to nourish your body and mind every day. That’s where fitness comes in… Finding a style of workout you love, and can be consistent with, is key for you - then it will no longer feel like a chore to rock up, and you’ll leave feeling fab every single time.

Mostly Cs: Keep It Casual

You love sweating it out, but it’s more of an afterthought than a priority. You compensate for particularly indulgent days by booking in for a HIIT class to burn off the extra choccie, but will rarely set your alarm to the crack of dawn by choice.

Given some encouragement from a friend or loved one, you’ve been known to occasionally drag yourself out of your warm bed early in the morning for a light treadmill jog, but you don’t like to make a habit of it. Often, when you hit the gym, you just feel a little awkward… not entirely sure what to do with yourself, or how to achieve your goals.

Life is busy, okay? It can be hard to prioritise the gym when life calls!

You’d benefit from booking in with one of our expert PTs to discuss your individual goals, and the most efficient ways to reach them. This way, you’ll maximise every minute you spend in the gym, and feel more confident about your workouts. You might even enjoy them more, and find it easier to develop a routine! Trust us on this, it’s actually a hell of a lot of fun when you get in the groove...

Mostly Ds: Social and Sassy

The gym is great and all, but for you it’s a party. It’s a chance to socialise, make new friends and see old ones, and really get your fit fam squad together on the daily.

You’ll never catch you running solo on the tread (#boring), yet you’ll often frequent a group class, or spend far too long lingering around the free weights area, chatting to anyone and everyone in the vicinity.

Some may call you distracting, others think you’re the life of the party. You thrive in Zumba and HIIT classes, the perfect outlet for your energy, yet have no patience for Yin Yoga.

But remember...balance! Balance out that high intensity training with some zen, some mind-body classes which require you to look inwards and spend some time with your own thoughts, rather than chattering at those around you.

The gym is a hive of fun and activity, but you’ll see maximum benefits if you mix it up from time to time.
