8-week fitness challenge starts tomorrow at Fitclub, Phillipstown Hub

Hey everyone!


Tomorrow (April 3) at Fitclub at the Hub we're kicking off our second 8-Week Fitness Challenge for 2018.

Hey everyone!


Tomorrow (April 3) at Fitclub at the Hub we're kicking off our second 8-Week Fitness Challenge for 2018.


Our 8-Week Challenges are a way for us to challenge ourselves to achieve the body transformation so many of us are aiming for.


Here's how it works: we weigh in, measure body fat and muscle mass, and take a set of measurements during the first week of the challenge; attend as many Fitclub sessions as possible over the eight weeks; work on brushing up our nutrition at the same time; encourage each other both in person and in our Facebook group; and at the end of the eight weeks we collect the same data and check out how far we've come!


We've decided on a twist this time - there will be a $10 entry fee for this round of the challenge which will become the prize pool for our top achievers! All funds will be returned to the participants. Class tomorrow (April 3) will be free, just pay your entry fee - you can still join the challenge and pay your entry fee by Saturday April 7 but normal class fee of $2 will apply on Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday as well.


Come join a great group of motivated, friendly local women in a fun, kid-friendly environment and get started on your fitness goals! We have four sessions each week including Boxfit Tuesdays, Zumba Wednesdays, HIIT It Thursdays, and #SweatSaturday. Snacks and toys available for kiddos.


All welcome- all ages, bodies, fitness goals and abilities - participation in the challenge is not compulsory either, casual visits welcome! No need to book.


Check us out on Facebook (Fitclub at the Hub) to learn more about our fab community fitness group. We'd love to meet you!


<3 Carly, Tash and Rachel - the Fitclub Girls

Why are their huge trucks going up Hackthorne Road at night?

Graeme from Cashmere

Does any know why there are huge heavy laden trucks going up Hackthorne Road in the evening until late and where they are going to? It's a hell of a racket and and keeping the children awake, not to mention the vibrations coming off the road. It's been two nights in a row.

Turf has been dugup with a good level of soil on the grass and in strips. About half ready to collect today or Saturday. The rest on Easter Sunday or Monday, so you could take it and re-lay it at your place and water it for a virtually instant lawn. (Hoping that it will take root and grow.)

Pick up will be from Longhurst in Halswell.

If you are interested in this, let me know.
