Still No Baby -but only four days to go now - definitely


For all of us who are waiting anxiously for the arrival of my second child, this coming Monday is the day I will be a father again. Tommy will take the days sessions so there is no excuse not to work out.

I missed yesterdays post - I was running all around town and working here so it was a full day and the time to write just slipped away, not to worry, lets make up for it now...

Forth session in and Mel W is breezing through the workouts. Intensity is increasing and the results are already coming. Combined with her healthy eating habits and steadfast resolve at the Garage, Mel W is and will, continue to do extremely well. Keep it up, its only going to get better. Just ask everyone else(now is the time you all insert a comment on how much you love this place!!!)

Jackie is back after a week of battling the flew. Ready for a tough one as always, we did a very intense session which will surely make her sore. She battled it with joy as her mascot Freddy kept up the motivation. Its great to have you back Jackie. I look forward to extraordinary results, you have the potential and attitude.

Sid in, wonderful Sid. Determined and a never say never determination, Sid competently completed her WOD in superb fashion. Sid, you're looking great. Your efforts are being rewarded and your consistency - and coach - are the reason why. Keep coming back!

Liz and Frank in after a big Monday for Liz's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY LIZ) A great session was lined up for them and great results is what we got. Frank - your strong. Liz - your fitness is fantastic, you can probably outlast anyone here at the Garage. The dynamic duo is a force to be reckoned with. Both of you are great role models and your determination and results aren't going un-noticed. Well done.

Again we need another very warm welcome to our newest recruit - Kim G. Welcome to the wonderful world of hard work and real results - GarageGYM. Of course it was Kim's first time in so we did a nice and light session, which, as always, still left her sore. I look forward to a successful training regime.

Afternooon was very hectic for coach Michael so a few times were re-arranged. Of course, Seb and Mary alwyas find the time to turn up and push the limits. A very large workout for both, Mary doing several exercises for multiple reps for three minutes with no rest in between. A fantastic performance Mary. Seb took first place though with his magnificent workload, heavy weights and burst of energy at the end getting his heart rate to 95% max for the last five minutes. Unbelievable. Enormous effort Seb Well done.

Ginette started off today. Again a phenomenal performance and ready for a well deserved break. Ginette has been training non-stop for several weeks three times a week and her body is showing the results, and also the fatigue. Its good, when training at such intensities, to have a feww extra days off in between just to let the body recover totally. Most times this gets rid of niggling aches and gets you better results the next bout of weeks of training you do. Ginette. Monstrous effort with four rounds of the WOD. See you in a week.

Belinda and Aldo ready and waiting. Forth session in so the intensity was up a notch. We let them get away with three rounds of the WOD, but it was still a great three rounds. Both improving already. Technique was spot on. I look forward to more and more hard work.

Gulnaz in - she forgot her runners at home - who cares - no one to tell us off here. She started the last three sessions off with the dumbbell bear. G did twelve rounds of a medium to heavy 6kg which will work her out and let her tiny injury heal. Go G. See you tomorrow.

Bob in, battler Bob. And battle he did. Both Bob and Robert did this WOD two months ago and both have shown a 200% increase in fitness, strength, and power. Bob did a max. of 12.5kg last time and he hit a new record of 17.5 kg. And he did extra rounds. And he did it with much more grace. Go Bob. Well done on your 500m row ending. 1:47.7 on a light row. Ha!

Robert to finish the night off. Again massive increase, from an old 10kg dumbbell lift to a new 15kg dumbbell lift, and again, with ease compared to last time. It is absolutely fantastic to repeat a workout now and again and see these vast improvements. You both are dedicated and are reaping the rewards. See you both next week and Ill let you know when bubs is born. Keep coming back Robert, I really enjoy or Thursday evening chats as well.

Thank you all for your support and well wishes. The time is near for another little soul to appear in this beautiful world. With people like yoursleves it is surely a world that I want to bring my daughter up in. I truly am blessed to have one healthy child and another on the way, a beautiful wife and such dedicated, funny, nice, caring and honest clients. Lets pray for a safe delivery and another beautiful, intelligent child.
