Low Impact Vs High Impact HIIT

Tom's Health & Fitness2 Comments

When chasing your goals the key to success always starts with effective planning…

There is tons of evidence to support the benefits of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), however this can be intimidating when you have injuries and mobility issues….

These don’t need to stop you though as there are plenty of low impact exercises which place minimal stress on your joints & bones, they will however get your heart rate up nice and high.

At our Camps & Classes we make a point of catering for all abilities and offer High & Low Impact Options…

What’s Stopping You!!!

Drop It Like It’s Squat

Drop It Like It’s Squat…

Focusing on your hips is an easy way to nail your Squats…visualise sticking your bum out and drop your hips down as if you’re sitting into a chair…

New squatters often start by leaning forward seeing their heels lift which places excess pressure on the knees & decreases the efficiency of this exercise…

Remember: Keep your feet flat, push your hips back and drop them like it’s squat…

It’s More Fun With A Friend

Exercising can become boring over time, this is a leading reason many people quit, inevitably resulting in a decline in their health & self esteem…

Experience and supporting studies have shown that working out in a group is not only more fun but more effective as people work harder when they are among their peers…

Boot Camps & Classes are a great way of meeting new people and sharing a fun & varied workout, therefore increasing the longevity of your results….
