S&T STEPS

26/02/2026

Footy tipping starts very soon and we’ve got our own FREE S&T STEPS comp running again.

Win vouchers. Talk s**t. Remind Tim how average his team is. Standard stuff.

You don’t need to train with us, just be a Yarra Valley local and keen for some banter.

Season’s nearly here.

Comment TIPPING and we’ll send you the invite.

Almost 10 years ago we made a pretty big call.

We left stable jobs and decided to back ourselves, and each other, to build this place.

It was exciting. It was terrifying. There was a lot of uncertainty, a fair bit of anxiety, and more than a few “what are we actually doing?” moments.

And honestly, some days we still can’t believe we did it.

The last decade has thrown a lot at us. Some massive highs. Some brutal lows. Stuff you can’t plan for.

But the one constant has been this community.

People who showed up. Who trusted us. Who supported us when things were shaky. Who stuck around.

We’re proud of what this place has become.

And if you’ve been part of it at any point, trained here, shared a post, told a mate, thank you. You backed us too.

Bring on the next 10.

This is how HYROX started… confident and smiling 😅

This is how it progressed… breathing louder, reps gritty, death stares at me.

This is how it ended… nothing left in the tank 😂

Hard? Yep. Fun? Also yep.

Want in next week?

Flick us a DM and we’ll get you into it.

Wednesday was HYROX Lite… which sounds cute until you’re halfway through the third run 😅

Big session. Big stations. Most people are lucky to see the whole thing twice. Starts loud.

Complaints early. Then it shifts. Less talking. More focus. Work gets done. Keen for next week

Wednesdays can be flat. Midweek. Low battery. We see it every week.

That’s why Challenge exists.

Structured rounds. Clear targets. Healthy competition. Plenty of s**t-stirring.

You walk in tired. You walk out better.

Hard session. Good banter. Much better mood.

Negativity bias is the brain’s tendency to focus more on negative experiences than positive ones.

From an evolutionary perspective, missing a threat mattered more than missing a compliment.

So one bad session can outweigh five good ones in your memory. That shows up in training constantly.

One average workout and suddenly you think you’re going backwards.

Recognising it doesn’t erase it, but it stops you believing every negative thought. Sometimes it’s not truth. It’s just your brain being dramatic.

Save this for the next time one session tries to rewrite your whole story.

Optimistic about your team this season? Pessimistic? Emotionally preparing for disappointment?

Don’t think. Just answer 👇

We are no good at these viral trends 😂

I’m secure enough to admit this publicly… K-Pop Demon Hunters absolutely slaps as run music 😂

Animated demon-fighting pop has carried me through more than one final kilometre.

Your turn. What’s your guilty pump-up song?

Cost of living is wild right now, but you can still support local without spending a dollar.

Like posts. Comment. Share. Tag them when someone asks for a recommendation.

That stuff genuinely matters.

Training isn’t about looking a certain way.

You don’t need to fit some stereotype to train seriously.

This is what real training looks like. Effort. Focus. Laughter between sets.

Real people working on their health and strength. No mould required 💪
