🏋️‍♀️Some interesting facts about why it's a great idea to keep moving and exercising, especially as we enter our golden years!

✨Keeping a regular exercise regime is important for maintaining and improving bone density, which can assist in the prevention of osteoporosis and fractures. Exercise is recognised as an effective tool in building a strong skeletal frame and maintaining bone strength as we age.
Some recommended types of exercises are;
Weight bearing impact loading, resistance training and balance training.

✨Balance and coordination exercises can help improve stability, strength and flexibility which assists in maintaining independence and quality of life. Most importantly, it helps prevent falls...which can be very serious in senior years.
Some great exercises for balance are;
Heel to toe walks, single-limb balance, marching on the spot....always practice these with support and safety first!!

✨ Heart health. As we age, our heart and blood vessels undergo changes that can increase risks of heart disease. Some great exercises to improve or maintain a healthy ticker are; brisk walking, resistance training and aerobic exercise.

✨Cognitive function can deteriorate in ageing so it's crucial to be proactive in exercise to assist in the prevention of dementia-related conditions and also depression. Exercise is proven to have a direct correlation in positive health outcomes in maintaining memory, mood regulation and optimal brain function.

✨As we add candles to our birthday cakes over the years, maintaining a healthy weight range can prove difficult...either underweight or overweight. Exercise in conjunction with a healthy eating plan is critical in keeping at a healthy weight level and helping to prevent chronic diseases and even disability from occurring.

👨‍⚕️If you or a loved one is keen to take control over their health and wellbeing, get in touch with us today! We not only offer evidence-based training programs but have amazing connections with the best allied health professionals in our community!

☀️🏖With Summer well under way, it's crucial to remind ourselves to take the time to plan our hydration needs especially as our calendars begin to get busy again.

❗️Here's some fun facts about keeping hydrated with good quality H2O!...🫗
*Staying hydrated helps to regulate body temperature.
*Water is crucial for healthy digestion and helping avoid constipation.
*Water may assist in weight management, creating a sense of fullness and satiation.
*Drinking water enhances physical performance. Proper hydration is essential for peak performance during exercise and outdoor activities.
*Dehydration increases the risks of kidney stones. Satying properly hydrated may assist in decreasing the risks of kidney stone formation.
*Fewer headaches! Staying sufficiently hydrated in conjunction with being around fresh airy spaces may help reduce headaches and headache symptoms.

🐱🐶🐦As always, let's not forget about our animal friends during these hotter days, remember to keep their bowls regularly cleaned and topped up with daily fresh water!

Looking for a healthy ageing gym? Has your doctor recommended you undertake an exercise program?

Are you tired of the 'new year, new me' best intentions that don't seem to work out?

Have you never stepped foot in a gym or exercise facility before?

No stress, we're here to assist with the whole process.

Introducing exercise in to your life can be a daunting task...the thought of being thrown straight in to lifting dumbbells, sweating over a treadmill and being pushed to uncomfortable limits is enough to make anyone give up on the idea of regaining control over their health and wellbeing!

Having a generic exercise program handed to you and told 'good luck' is NOT part of what we do here.
We specialise in a person-centred approach in delivering programs that are designed for your needs as an individual and catering to your goals in life, supporting you with positive encouragement and the highest level of customer service to ensure the ultimate satisfaction with your membership.

We are a small sized facility, this means you don't just sign up and get 'lost in the crowd'. We take the time to ensure each member understands each exercise they undertake, the purpose of the exercise and most importantly, alternatives to exercises they may not enjoy!! There's no point having a program full of things you don't enjoy...you won't want to come back!
Just some of our benefits...
✔️No lock-in contracts...ever! If you don't come, you don't pay!
✔️Freedom to pay weekly, fortnightly, monthly or beyond with cash, or tapping on with your card (no lock-in and ongoing direct debits that go forgotten about)
✔️Our facilities are staffed through the day, ensuring you are supported and feel safe.
✔️Ongoing support with your program. If you're unsure about exercises or forget how to do them, we're here to guide you through...no matter how many times, we're more than happy to provide ongoing support.
✔️Safe and easy to use equipment.
✔️Perfect for gym anxieties, new to gyms, never exercised before.

💖 A huge THANK YOU!!! to all who shared to our annual collection for the Give Where You Live Christmas Appeal.
It really means so much when a community can come together to ensure others aren't going without. While some in the community live with abundance, it really captures the true essence of human spirit to share what you can...whether it's one packet of Weet Bix or a whole bag of goodies, it all makes an ENORMOUS difference to the grand total that gets shared around the community. We're are so humbled by our members generous hearts and so proud to play our part in the Appeal. Our members are truly the best of our local community and the pictures don't do justice to how much food was so generously shared.

A special shoutout to for being the driving force behind this at Dash Gym and for being a superb human being in general!
