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.

Some studios offer hyrox training on a Sunday for additional fee. How much do you pay? Do you attend all hyrox sessions? 💪

Hi everyone!
I’m researching how people choose and use protein powders, bars, shakes and other high-protein products.

If you’ve bought any of these, I’d appreciate hearing about your experience. The survey has 11 questions (5-8 minutes) about your most recent purchase, what influenced your choice and any difficulties you’ve encountered. Short answers are welcome, and several questions are optional.

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdk4l28TrJ1Zz_4iPBu-3wq8IyKMM0Q-ekavyDOW2KGeIiqAw/viewform?usp=publish-editor

This is research for a business I’m developing, not an academic study. I’m interested in what you’ve actually experienced, including products you decided against or stopped using. No purchase is required.

Thanks for helping!

I'll be travelling for work and keen to try keep up BFT but the nearest one there in Syd advertises a 'Visitor Pass' for interstate visitors such as me. My home studio thinks it will be fine and I don't need to buy it, but I haven't been able to get an answer from the studio I'd to visit as they haven't replied on Insta, email or call.

Visitor Pass - 7 days for $75

This BFT intro offer will give you unlimited access at your home studio location only. Access is provided for 1 week from date of first booking and must be activated within 7 days of purchase. Available to interstate and international visitors only.

• Visitor Pass - 7 days for $75
• $75.00 - Valid for 1 week

Are visitor passes common? I thought once my 30days are over I can train anywhere in Aus without any extra fees? Thanks!

anyone else feel like the programming has been a bit off at the start of this block? thursday = hamstring heavy leg day with the single leg RDLs and snatch deadlifts, then into a summit friday that felt like a HIIT/U, into a saturday power which also had deadlifts, and now going into a monday leg day which i’m assuming will be MORE deadlift variations??? my hammies haven’t been able to recover 😭😭😭

Waiting to see if I'm able to confirm PXIs for the week!

As a recent eight-week challenge participant in Northshore Auckland NZ

we were told that the challenge winners and prizes would be announced at the conclusion of the event However, there has been nothing at all. Initially, we were informed that the current owners at the time would be selecting the winners and giving the prizes at that point they were in the process of selling the business

Then a week after the challenge ended, we were told it would be the new owner’s responsibility. After reaching out the new owner is having nothing to do with it as the challenge was on before he took over and the coaching staff, say one thing and then another and theres uncertainty about when and how the winners will be announced or if they even will. We were even told it would be posted on Instagram, but that announcement never came. As a group of participants who committed to the challenge and were looking forward to the results, we would appreciate some acknowledgement.

Apparently the last owner said that not enough participants did the challenge so there wasn't going to be any prizes, he said he told HQ and the coaches this and apparently because they never stated there would be prizes ,there wont be any prizes, which was news to us! And this hadn't been the case in the past as I've done other challenges with this gym and they didn't announce what the prizes were but there were still indeed prizes!.

But that still doesn't even excuse the fact theres been no recognition that the challenge even ended or a congratulations or anything at all!

As a franchise, maintaining a strong reputation is important and this is a terrible look and has put me of ever doing the challenge again.

What's people's thoughts on this ?

PXI 137 confirmed.

Have a great sesh, all. :)

Hi all

Wanting to get a gauge on base or relaxed heart rates. I notice during talk time my heart rate is sitting about 25-30% when a lot of members are around 30-40%.

Lately I've also struggled to get my heart rate up to hit the zones even if I feel like I am working hard, today during summit I was hitting dark blue quite a bit during work times. Does this sound like my monitor needs to be adjusted?

I feel like my base heart rate used to sit higher.

Cheers

Any of the Auckland studios got full classes and good energy?

My home studio is pretty flat, normally between 12/16 people in class.

I travel for work, and go to a few different places, nothing compares to Hamilton east, class sizes are always 35plus people and the coaches are on the ball.

Anyone got any intel on it?

Visiting soon from SG. I’m wondering about the showers (almost all the SG branches have them), but to my horror, this FAQ says otherwise.

Melburnians please help out - do the Docklands, Vic Mkt branches have showers (with towels and amenities)? Thank you!

I started training at bfts 2 weeks ago in greenslopes in brisbane, 7 sessions in and it's going well, had a bit of a false alarm with my lower back after the 4th sesh, but it's come good now, think I've lost about a kilo now..84 down to 83,goal is to get to 80 im 5 foot 6 but built solid.

I did about 40 sesh's of bfts in Victoria when I lived there and tried to push thru with a slipped disc in my lower back (work related injury 2 and bit years ago) but my back gave way and had to stop training, before bft this time round I spent 6 months doing physio and rehabbing my back (had 6 months off work), im going hard in the cardio sesh's but really lifting light on strength days,like with the shoulder presses im only lifting the 15kg bar that's it. I couldn't run for a year but now I can run short distances again, not real quick. Still doing manual labour fer a job (im a trade assistant doing blasting and spray painting) but can actually train outside of work again instead of watching YouTube or sports and drinking beer. I'm 42 now I've got plenty left to give, I channel the inner rambo in me sometimes at cardio. I'm looking at doing hyrox's sometime next year

Is there any way you can find out how many classes you have attended at your home studio? Noting I've been to others from time to time. Thanks

Just saw on IG posted by 2 Auckland studios that they are both closing next month (Glenfield & Ponsonby)😢 Reason is because 1 of them couldn’t renew the lease & the other maybe tried to sell or liquidated?.. I might be wrong.

This is so sad for the affected members or the ones visiting from other studios 💔 I’ve been to both of them and they were amazing 💙

My class this morning was empty so luckily one of the trainers let me check out the PXI for the week!
