CLOSING TIME - ONE MORE CALL FOR BRIGHT SPOTS!

We've spent the last week saying goodbye to our members as we prepare to close the gym one final time today. Amongst the sadness we have loved seeing some of our dedicated people achieving their last level ups with us, and celebrating their journeys to becoming better versions of themselves.

Congratulations to Bruce for reaching Orange 1 in upper body pull - and to these people for levelling up in neuro and core:

Brea - Orange 3
Peri - Orange 1
Anna - Orange 2
Angela - Yellow 3

We have loved being part of the Level Method family - and the benefits that Level Method brought to our business, and most importantly to our members - prioritising safe movement and progression, providing great scaling options, helping our members understand their why, their goals and how to achieve them - and keeping them motivated.

But for now it's on the new adventures - check out our latest project at www.thegymlocums.com as we aim to help gym owners and coaches in New Zealand and beyond get the breaks they need to be at the top of their game for their members and their business.

BRIGHT SPOTS!

The end of another month - and another chance to celebrate our awesome members who have achieved level ups! We kick things off with a bunch of ladies who achieved level ups in FLEXIBILITY. Leading the way was Haylee, who levelled up from Blue 1 to Purple 1. Anna H absolutely smashed it going from Yellow 2 to Blue 3 - leaping over all of the Orange levels along the way. They were joined by Andrea and Angela who both reached Blue 1. Well done ladies - these are great results that have come from your hard work!

Rachelle and Don both levelled up in kettlebell - with Rachelle getting to Purple 2 and Don to Blue 2. Check out our post on front squat level ups to see them team up again for a celebration! Joining them in kettlebell level ups were a bunch of great ladies: Haylee and Anna H reaching Orange 1, Donna getting to Orange 3; Monika, Carol and Kate all achieved Orange 1 and Tehani earned herself a Blue 2.

While not part of this month's assessment cycle, Donna achieved a level up in upper body push to Yellow 1 - continuing her great form over recent weeks, and her commitment to meeting the goals she has set for herself.

Great work everyone - we love seeing you progress and prove to yourselves that you can achieve more!

How We Set the Bar: Variety to Meet Your Individual Needs 💪🏽

At BHP Functional Fitness, we understand that everyone’s fitness journey is unique. That’s why we offer a variety of training options to cater to all types of people and their specific goals. Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned gym goer, returning after injury, or aiming to hit new personal bests, we’ve got you covered.

Here’s how we raise the bar by offering training options to suit you:

Small Group Classes: Max 8 people per class, so you get personal attention while benefiting from the camaraderie of group training.

Semi-Private Training: Up to 4 people working alongside a coach, but each on their own personalised plan. Ideal if you want the support of a coach while following a programme designed just for you.

Personalised Coaching: After some one-on-one support to help take you to the next level? Our coaches offer tailored sessions (30 or 60 minutes) that focus solely on your needs and goals.

Specialty Classes: Whether you’re after cardio, strength, or core conditioning, we’ve got options. Mix it up with our lunchtime BoxCon twice a week—30 minutes of boxing-inspired conditioning, or get LIT (Low Intensity Training) with our 45-minute Cardio & Core classes which is also available to non-members with a 10-session pass.

Our variety ensures that no matter where you are in your fitness journey, there’s a training option to suit you. At BHP, it’s about providing the right support for you to progress safely, efficiently, and confidently.

WE DON'T SELL GYM MEMBERSHIPS - YOU CAN GET THOSE ANYWHERE!

What we do sell is COACHING.

Coaching is more than teaching, more than cheerleading, more than dictating. We don’t merely provide access to equipment, but deliver people from their current state to their goals.

Reaching your goals requires hard work. But before hard work comes motivation, and before motivation comes behavioural change. We can’t out-yell a bad lifestyle.
No goal is motivational enough to pull a client past every temptation, every late-night craving, every moment of weakness. None. The knowledge “this is bad for me” won’t overcome “I want this right now” without practice.

People do things for a reason. That reason is rarely logical. Most even know what they “should” do. Our job is to make them want to do it for the rest of their lives.

If you're ready to start making progress on your goals, message us to book your free No Sweat Intro with one of our coaches.
