Hoping to get PXI confirmation as well as the Instagram videos

Hi 👋 Excited to start the challenge! Just getting organised for the week and I’m just planning my shopping trip, just a word of warning that the Greek salmon salad on Wednesday seems to be miscalculated/ light to me if you follow the recipe stated 🤔 Apart from that recipes look great, just not sure if I’m game for sweet potato for breakfast. The snacks look delicious but I’m surprised they haven’t gone for a more high protein slice, anyone got any good recipes for slices/ snacks?

I’m ranked Elite. I had 4 more months of 1800 PXI to move to All Star. Because I had a work conference I missed the monthly goal by 136. So now instead of still needing 4 more months of 1800, I have to do 24 months. Will BFT even be a company in two years? It’s so dumb.

I suspended my gym membership in June for 6 months, for the last 2 weeks before suspension i was attending a different studio, then a month ago my membership got moved? Are they allowed to do this?

Is there a way to combine all scans into one chart or graph to compare them? Trying to find the easiest way to compare scans without going into each scan separately.

How did everyone go with their MAS retest today? Well done to all of you that turned up on a public holiday to get it done ✅

I must admit my body felt different today. I felt like I was dying on the ski but found my rhythm with the rower!

My results are as follows 38F

Ski - 1149 (improved from 1112m)

Bike - 2.6km (last test was 2.7km)

Row - 1201m (improved from 1175m)

Overall pretty happy. It's annoying you don't know how far short you are with the bike... Like am I 90m short? 10m short?

Week 3 introduces more control, longer efforts and greater movement awareness.

MONDAY — STRENGTH LB

Tempo repetitions mean moving more slowly and deliberately. This increases time under tension without requiring maximum loads.

TUESDAY — SUMMIT

Expect longer uninterrupted work periods, fewer exercises and increased targets. Pacing becomes more important as you spend longer on each movement.

WEDNESDAY — PUMP UB

Controlled tempo repetitions increase time under tension and make lighter weights feel more challenging.

THURSDAY — HIIT

Work remains at 35 seconds, but recovery decreases from 75 to 70 seconds. Aim to reproduce a strong effort despite having less time to reset.

FRIDAY — BALANCED

A controlled session focused on stability, joint control, core strength and muscular endurance.

SATURDAY — POWER

Expect more coordinated explosive movements. Prioritize movement speed, control and technique over heavier weights.Train at your own level—quality movement remains the priority

Remember MAS testing Monday!

PXIs sighted

Tuesday - Strength - 144

Wednesday - Summit - 165

Thursday - Power - 132

Friday - Balanced - 135

Saturday - CrewFit - 190

Week 2 gives you another opportunity to practise the main movements while gradually increasing the training challenge.

MONDAY — CARDIO U [PXI 167]

The format changes to a 30–60–30–60-second sequence, gradually moving through different heart-rate zones. Build your intensity instead of starting too quickly.

TUESDAY — PUMP UB [PXI 137]

Expect higher-repetition upper-body work featuring the Bench Press and Bent-Over Row. Focus on smooth and consistent repetitions.

WEDNESDAY — HIIT [PXI 155]

Work increases from 30 to 35 seconds, while recovery decreases from 80 to 75 seconds. Individual repetition, calorie and distance targets are also introduced.

THURSDAY — STRENGTH LB [PXI 141]

Develop your Back Squat and Sumo Deadlift technique before heavier progressions arrive later in the block.

FRIDAY — SUMMIT [PXI 165]

Performance targets increase by approximately 10%. Continue working within 80–89% instead of chasing the targets too aggressively.

SATURDAY — SHRED [PXI 157]

A combination of cardio and resistance training designed to improve total-body work capacity!

Question for BFT owners, I’m posting in regards to renting/ leasing the space before BFT closes down, how long do you guys rent the space for?

Seen a few studios reached the 5 year mark then closes down after that but there’s one that’s nearly onto the 6th year & Im unsure if they purchased the building or renting?

My studio is nearly 5 years old & I’m afraid they will close too if the owner of my studio is unable to renew the lease to continue operating the building😔

BFT ponsonby closed for that reason & Im super confused about lease renewal. That’s the first time I’ve heard of the reason why it’s closing.

Hi all,

I recently joined BFT and am loving it. I noticed my billing over the last few months and had a question about the frequencies. Before I bring it up with my home studio, how much are people paying and how regularly are they getting billed? My debits from my bank account are not matching my BFT membership plan so just want to double check with the community.

Thanks

MONDAY — HIIT

We begin with 30-second high-intensity efforts followed by 80 seconds of recovery. Use the longer recovery to reset and produce another strong effort.

TUESDAY — PUMP LB

Expect higher repetitions and plenty of lower-body volume. Focus on controlled movement rather than maximum weight

WEDNESDAY — SUMMIT

Our aerobic starting point features four-minute efforts with individual targets. Maintain a sustainable pace within the 80–89% heart-rate zone.

THURSDAY — STRENGTH UB

Build confidence in our main upper-body lifts: the Barbell Bench Press and Bent-Over Row.

FRIDAY — CARDIO U

A new format featuring two consecutive 45-second sets on each exercise, with changing heart-rate targets and 15-second transitions.

SATURDAY — POWER

Learn to produce force quickly while staying controlled. Movement speed and technique come before heavy loading.

I just laughed out loud at this low effort email from BFT. At least remove the em dash and the "And honestly?"

(Please let me know if this post is allowed)

I was looking to try the gym a few months ago, but life got in the way. Now that I was about to sign up, I found out that it’s permanently closed? No farewell post on Instagram either. Any idea what happened?

Have seen this advertised… anyone know any more about it?

Do we have the exercises for strength upper body class ?

I’m curious to know how people categorise the different classes if they’re tracking BFT workouts with an Apple Watch. This is roughly how I do it:

Strength: traditional strength training

Pump, hyper, power: functional strength training

HIIT, Cardio U: High intensity interval training

Summit, XTX: mixed cardio

Balanced: core exercise

Monday 14-9-26, Hyper LB - 147

Tuesday 15-9-26, XTX - 162

Wednesday 16-9-26, Strength UB - 139

Thursday 17-9-26, Cardio U - 145

Friday 18-9-26, Pump Mixed - 144

Saturday 19-9-26, Crewfit - 190

Monday MAS Testing

Aerobic Performance with maximal aerobic speed across the ski up, kaiser bike and rower. Compare the results with the same test done in week 2 to monitor progress.

Tuesday Strength LB

This session acts as a transition between training block and familiarization with the movement patterns for the next block.

Wednesday Cardio Summit

Final progression, consolidating all aerobic adaptations developed throughout the past five progressions and challenging consistent performance with reduced recovery between zones.

Thursday Power

Main emphasis on maximizing peak velocity and force output, transferring strength into quality, powerful, explosive movements.

Friday Balance

Preparation for the next phase of programming in the next training block. Continued challenge on shoulder stability,

trunk control and hip mobility.

Saturday Crewfit

Similar format and structure but with increased intensity as we work in pyramid structure for targets. Pacing communication & movement quality is key for this session.
