Progress is the name of the Game

The great results just keep on coming...if you all get any fitter you'll be able to replace me!?!

Tricia was in, ready fro some action, Tabata intervals was her medicine today. Rowing / squats / dips / core work. Tricia breezed through it, perfect intensity, super session.

Tim was in for his second session. Got him trialling his 500m record: 2:16 after a 7 week lay off. Next he did the sit up challenge - 53 - again not bad for a long lay off. Good to have you back Tim. It will only get harder!

Sid came next, always better than the session before. Despite her soreness, she mustered up the strength to get her through a session she did 27 days ago. It was also the Tabata intervals - squats/sit ups/push press/rowing. Sid astounded me so much with her increases in such a short time. In comparison she improved over 25% in all the exercises, some even 100% improvements. Super work Sid. And you've been here so little. Imagine 3 more months!!!

Jess was in, still carrrying a slight injury, so again we focused on upperbody. Jess has by far the greatest Bench Press out of everyone at GarageGYM. He was doing 6 reps of 80kg easily. I hate to think how much he could have lifted if i pushed him. Amazing Jess. But be careful of your arms - any bigger and they'll explode.

Gulnaz was in with 10 year old Matty. Together they did pull ups, push ups, straight leg raises and back extensions. Matty is a smart, confident, motivated boy who obviously takes after his mum.

THE EVENT OF THE NIGHT - - - - BOB'S CHALLENGE TO FRANK B - - - - 500M ROW

After giving Bob a whole new rowing technique to learn, he had a go at the standing 500m record here at GarageGYM. Currently it stands at 1:48.8 seconds and is held by Frank B.

Bob, who wasn't as puffed as he thought he would be , scored a very, very close finish of 1:49 seconds. 0:00.2 seconds off Frank. (I think Bob eased up at the end too Frank!?!)

Well done Bob. Unless Frank improves - you'll have him for breakfast next time.
Bob finished the session with 10kg and 12.5kg dumbbell bears. He then went off to play a game of tennis.

Robert was back after his record breaking performance. He picked up the Dumbbell bear technique fairly quickly and we got stuck straight into it with 10kg dumbbells. He then picked up the pace and finished with 12.5kg weights. A very strong performance indeed. The high end of the athletes here at GarageGYM is extremely close. Only a few seconds and few kilograms separates you all. (And if you are not sure of who I am talking about - check the results board on the tab on the right) Robert finished the session with 60 sit ups in 2 minutes.

Super day, you make me very proud. All your bodies are developing accordingly. If you all keep up the great work, I'll release a GarageGYM calender with all your body shots on. I reckon it'll be a smash hit!
