This Is Your Starting Point

It's official, the rainy season is here and not only will that make footy training less than ideal for me tonight but its also another reason that many people give health and fitness the boot because it's more comfortable in doors with the heater on.

Here's some news for you, there are places you can go where you can actually train indoors!! No joke!!

At Full Circle Fitness we also know that getting started is the hardest part of the process, so we've got something for you! But first...

I have a good mate named Matt who wasn't very happy with where his body was at. Over the years running his own business and running around after his 2 kids had limited his "me" time, and weight gain was the result. This is a bloke who's played most sports this world has to offer at one time or another so he has been in pretty good knick before.

At the start of this year he threw caution to the wind. He did some quick research, found a 90 day training program on the internet that had a diet component to it and followed it 110%.

He also laid off the grog completely for the entire 90 days which included all the public holidays we have at the start of the year as well as 2 of his best mates engagement parties. 

This is what happened:

What an effort. 

Now we understand that not everyone has the "go getter" approach that Matty, has but you've just got to find your starting point and here it is:

" 14 Objectives in 28 Days and a New You"

This is a FREE online program. Once you sign up for it, via email we send you a new objective to complete every 2nd day for 28 days.

They are simple yet critical points that you need to cover in order to get you on the track to your ideal body and/or fitness level.

Don't be suprised if you make great body composition strides simply in the 28 days.

The subjects covered are related to exercise, nutrition, goal setting and lifestyle so we have left nothing out here.

And it's all FREE!!!

Do not wait until the start of the month to begin this program, start it TODAY!

Head to the contact page on our website and fill out the opt in form with "14/28" put yourself in the best position to look your best come summer 2012/13.

Full Circle Fitness Home Workout #3

We hope that you are enjoying as well as reaping the benefits of the free workouts that we have provided you with over the last couple of months.

What You Need: Stop watch or Clock

How To Do It: Do each exercise one after the other in a circuit and do 3 total circuits. You may need to start at 1 or 2 circuits but over the month increase the total to 3.

However many circuits you do, time how long it takes then beat that time each successive time you repeat the workout. Keep your drink breaks to as little time as you can and do every exercise in the same place to keep transition time to a minimum.

Perform a 2 minute warm up of just basic running on the spot and star jumps.

Split Squat x 8 each leg

Push Ups with Shoulder Touch x 3 – 6 each arm

Hip Hinge with Side Arm Raise x 10

Stability Hold with Leg Raise x 8 each leg

You can view the exercises for this workout below:

Here It Is!! FREE Home Workout #2

February had it all didn't it. Plenty of heat and plenty of rain. But that doesn't stop us from giving the pain!

Well pain might be a touch dramatic but here's the FREE March Workout for you all to complete at home. Remember you want to to try and do this at least 10 times during the month and if you're feeling a little saucy, you can alternate this with last month's program.

Again all you'll need is a stop watch and the set up is the same. Do each circuit 2 - 4 rounds (hopefully you're fitter this month then last of which you can add 1 circuit to each workout. Like last month you need to time the workout and beat it each session. Keep transition time to a minimum.

We will keep our warm up the same with star jumps and a light jog on the spot or around the backyard for 2mins then hit it hard!

Reverse Lunge x 8 each leg
Stability Hold Push Ups x 3 - 6 each arm (perform from an elevated surface if you need to)
Stationary Sprint x 20 strides each leg
Stability Hold with a Side Arm Raise x 8 each arm

How To Do Your Feb Fast Properly

We're a little bit laid back in Oz than other countries sand getting back into health and fitness is no exception. From Christmas parties and actual Christmas through December then New Years in January and Australia Day at the end of January, all of sudden it's February and you started back yet!!

And so Feb Fast begins for many of us in the hope that it can get us back on track to where we left off last year (hopefully the damage was minimal in the meantime).

So whether your doing Feb Fast officially, in the office or just for your own personal satisfaction, here are some tips to make it work for you.

Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail

We love this saying around here. Plan out your food. What you'll eat, how much and when. What will you do if you go out for dinner? How will you resist temptations? When and what type of training will you do?

Don't fail yourself by thinking you can do it on the fly. Plan everything out.

Go Boring

Be selfish. Dedicate this month to you and you only. Spurn those mates that want some Friday night drinks. Let your partner know that there will be no red wine kept in the house this month. Stay in and make sure this month stays on track. It's only a month really.

What Else Can You Improve?

While tour on 1 path of self improvement what else can you do to make yourself a better version of you? Get a yourself a personal trainer (i k ow a few great one's!), find a dietitian, find a partner to run the tan with. Make this the month you finally do all the things you say you're gonna do every year at this time.

Just Do It, And Do It NOW!!

Don't play that silly game in your head where you'll start after the weekend as I have that party on. Start now. Start yesterday even. Stop procrastinating because the only thing counts is "done". You get paid for done. You get benefits from done. You don't get anything from sort of or maybe.
