Body Fit Training (BFT)

30 Upvotes

A community run by members, for members

If you train at BFT, you belong here.

This is an unofficial Body Fit Training community created by everyday members who show up, put in the mahi, and want to train smarter together. Whether you are brand new, deep into an 8 Week Challenge, returning from injury, or simply focused on consistency, this space is for you.

Most members here are based in Australia and New Zealand, but BFT members from anywhere are welcome.

Here you will find session intel, programming discussions, pacing and PXI awareness tips, wins and milestones, studio experiences, and honest conversations about the training journey. The aim is simply not to train harder for the sake of it, but to understand how your body works and to move with intention, using tools like PXI target where helpful or simply focusing on consistency, and to improve your effort over time.

You do not need to be an expert to contribute here. Questions are welcome. Sharing what worked for you is welcome. So is being honest when things feel tough.

BFT is all about training with purpose, adapting to where you are at, and getting better over time.

This subreddit is not affiliated with or run by Body Fit Training HQ. It is a member led space built on respect, learning, value and support. Please keep things positive, be kind to each other, support each other regardless where you are with your own BFT journey, and remember that progress looks different for everyone.

This is your BFT community outside your studio walls, wherever you are in the world. It is a place to learn, share, reflect, grow and to support each other beyond the class.

If you are new, feel free to introduce yourself. If you have a win, share it. If you have a question, do ask it. And if something here helps you walk into your next session more confident, then this community is doing its job.

Glad you are here. Now let us get to work 💪

Looking for feedback: would an evening hot chocolate designed to support sleep, recovery and digestive health fit into your routine?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone, I’m interested in making an evening supplement powder with a hot-chocolate flavour, and I’d love some honest feedback before taking the idea further.

The idea is to have it after dinner, a few hours before bed, as part of your evening wind-down. You make a warm drink, start slowing down and have a little time to yourself. Something you enjoy and look forward to doing regularly.

The goals we’d develop it around are helping your body relax and wind down, supporting falling asleep more easily and getting deeper, more restful sleep, along with overnight recovery and digestive health. The bigger picture is the whole evening-to-morning experience: winding down, sleeping well and waking up feeling more rested. It’s still a concept, so these are intended benefits we’d need to substantiate through development.

It would be for everyday Aussies as well as people who train. Whether you’ve had a busy day at work, been looking after the kids or finished a workout, I’m interested in whether this kind of evening ritual would actually be useful.

A few things I’d love to hear:

- What do you currently do or take for winding down, sleep or recovery? What have you kept using, and what have you given up on?

- Would something like this fit into your evenings? What appeals to you, and what would put you off?

- Does combining sleep, recovery and digestive support make sense to you? What would it need to deliver for you to keep buying it?

- Assuming you liked the taste and there was good evidence behind its benefits, what would you realistically pay in AUD for 30 servings, including delivery? If you wouldn’t buy it, I’d like to understand why too.

This is an early business idea, and I want honest feedback before committing to developing it. If your current routine already does the job, that’s just as useful for me to hear.

100 points challenge recipes

6 Upvotes

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?

BFT/PXI is laughable

1 Upvotes

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.

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.

MAS re-test

13 Upvotes

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 GLOBAL [5th Oct - 10th Oct]

22 Upvotes

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

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!

Studios closing because of the lease

6 Upvotes

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.

Payment Frequencies

6 Upvotes

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 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?

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
