Mirren’s success story

Meet Mirren before and after her 7 week Fit and Strong program at Dellafit. Even more awe inspiring are her fitness test results 7 weeks apart.  She shaved 40 seconds off her run time (over 3 minutes down to 2 minutes and 20 seconds) and went from doing 12 burpees in a minute to doing 19.  At the start Mirren could do 12 push ups on her knees in 30 seconds and by the end she was up to 18...Learn More

What is your “why”?

I have always struggled with “self help” stuff.  At various times in my life I have had tastes of it – team building weekends as a lawyer where we were prompted to do self reflective exercises, school retreats, aspects of training to become a telephone counsellor, even sessions during my personal training course.  I have trouble coming up with “goals” and putting...Learn More

How important is exercise to you?

I am passionate about trying to spread the bug…the exercise bug.  One of my clients recently confessed that she had it and how she felt funny when she skipped a session.  Now she has got the bug training has become something that she places a very high value on.  This means that she: makes time for it (by scheduling it in the same way as she would an important meeting); moves heaven...Learn More

Diary of a Non Wimpy Mum

I approached my first class with a healthy dose of nerves – I can’t remember the last time I did any cardio other than walking, which, judging my spreading waistline, was not really doing the trick anymore. “It won’t,” Della informed me, as we watched our kids’ swimming lessons. “You’re over 40 now.” Ouch. I found it easy to get a carpark at Rushcutters after dropping the kids at school and...Learn More

Exercise for well being

Some lucky people feel good during their exercise session.  You can see it on their faces – they are loving that feeling of being pushed to do their best.  They seem to be on a little mini “high”.  Often with outdoor exercise it’s being outside with nature around you in the fresh air – free and not all hemmed in. But not everyone can relate to this. However, just...Learn More

SPECIAL DEAL program starts 22 February

Hi Everyone Towards the end of last year we ran a “New You” program and we had some amazing results (see the Tale of 2 Sisters on this blog).
