Thank you so much for your effort, consistency and laughter not just today folks but the entire year. It's been a an absolute pleasure training with you.

We'll be back Saturday 11th January 2025.

Happy Christmas and all the best when it comes.

We where back at Pilrig this morning for Braw Bootcamp. With the team putting in a great effort as always as they were put through their paces over 3 rounds.

After a extended core blast at the start. Followed by a triple strength & cardio round lasting just under 30 mins. The video below is a wee clip of the finisher:

1 pommel jump
1 squat thrust
1 push up
1 rollover to crunch = 1 rep

Do this twice and then run 40 meters twice.

Add on 2 reps & runs every round up to 10.

Great for core strength end endurance.

Thanks as always for coming along & have a great w/end.

Back next Saturday at 10am.

Another great shift by the team this morning!.

After a fullbody workout over 3 rounds. Here is little clip of the finisher:

In pairs do 100 med ball slams between the two of you. You can only do 10 max in one go whilst your partner does half burpees until you have done your 10 reps.

Great for building power and aerobic fitness.

Back next Saturday at 10am.

Have a great w/end team.

A wee post to say thank you to everyone who entrusted us with their beautiful pets this year. Be it a walk or home stay, thank you so much.

It was a pleasure walking and hosting Casey, Patches, Sid & Milly, Proshie, Charlie & Willow, Skye, Miska & Onyx the Cat!.

We hope to see you again soon.

Belle's Dog Walks & Home Stays are now taking a well deserved break from taking on new bookings for this year. We will re-open for bookings for 2025 from mid-end January next year.

Of course it would not be a post without a mention for our beloved Belle. She is forever missed and in our hearts everyday.

What a shift by the team today!.

Like the previous 45 minutes wasn't enough. The team finished with the squat thrust finisher today!.

Squat Thrusts are extremely tough but are great at building power, strength and aerobic endurance.

In 2 teams get in as many individual squat thrust as you can.

15 secs work/10 secs recover

14 secs work/10 sec recovery

All the way down to 1 second.

The team with highest amount gives the other team a 1 minute exercise to finish.

As the team came to the end here you can see how tough it is.

Awesome job as always everyone. Thank you for coming out.

Back next Saturday at 10am.

Have a great w/end

Nice to be back this morning after having last week off.

The focus of today was high repetitions individually, in pairs and as a group for the finisher below. High reps and low/moderate weights really help build muscular endurance. However on the finisher below the use of the bag was to build power.

Each person does 10 overhead bag slams whilst the others do either mountain climbers or burpees. Once 150 bag slams have been done job done!.

Great to have you back team.

Welcome back Nadia!.

Have a great w/end

Great shift by the team this morning at Bootcamp.

A tough full body session as always finished with a beep test push up finisher. Amanda hitting the grand number of 40!. Well done Amanda.

On this note the team tried in vain to make the number 40 in these pictures in recognition of Stu's milestone this w/end. We never done very well!.

Welcome to the club Stu!.

Have a great w/end Team.

A little clip form the finisher this morning:

1 min plank hold. Every 5 secs do a push up.

1 min squat hold. Every 5 secs do a squat jump.

Repeat and take off 15 secs each round.

Great for building core strength and muscular endurance in the lower and upper body.

As always great effort and special shout out to Kirsten!.

Back next Saturday at 10am.

Have a great w/end

Great to have the team back today after our mid-summer break.

In amongst core, stability and strength work. The key focus for the day was 2 fitness tests.

1 - 10 exercises - 1min on each/30 secs recovery. Count your reps. The focus here was on muscular and cardio endurance + core work.

2 - The mini-coffin. 6 sides. With cones between 20-40 yards apart. Sprint 1, jog 5, sprint 2, jog 4, sprint 3, jog 3, sprint 2, jog 2, sprint 1, jog 5, sprint 6. Then:

Sprint 6, sprint 5, jog 1, sprint 4, jog 2, sprint 3, jog 3, sprint 2, jog 4. sprint 1, jog 5.

The coffin is a great measure of aerobic capacity. Fancy trying it yourself?. Try the same concept on a full sized football pitch.

Great effort team.

Back next Saturday at 10am.

Have a great w/end
