💡 Oly lifts aren’t just another exercise.

Most of us here aren’t competitive weightlifters… but that doesn’t mean we can’t train like them.

That’s why in our Oly Lift class, we don’t just throw a couple of cleans into a workout.

We break down the clean & jerk and sn**ch into all the pieces that make them work.

Which means:

Improving mobility
Refining technique
Building strength
And putting it all together!

So will we ever compete? Maybe. Maybe not.

But it’s pretty cool knowing we could 👊🏼

3 minutes of work doesn’t sound too long…

Until you have to do it again.
And again.
And again.

We tried to disguise this week’s grunt work with some gymnastics in between intervals.

Don’t think we fooled these guys 😂

We’re searching for the ultimate hybrid athlete 🏆

Testing Week kicks off Monday.

So we’re putting our members through 8 tests covering lifting, gymnastics and conditioning.

Some will be right in your wheelhouse.
Some might expose a few gaps 😅
And some might surprise you.

That’s the whole point.

It’s a chance to see where you’re strong, find out what needs work, chase a PB or two and have a bloody good time doing it with your crew 👊🏼

So… what’s your jam?

Lift. Gymnastics. Sweat… Everything?

We’ve seen this first hand 👇🏼

Hard things are just easier when you’ve got good people doing them with you.

For some, the challenge is getting through the gym door.

For others it’s adding a few more kilos to the bar, nailing that muscle-up… or just surviving Saturday Sweat 😅

But whatever you’re working on, the right crew helps you get after it and have a hell of a time doing it too 🤙🏼

Congrats to everyone who tackled the Sydney Marathon today 🏆

With the start line almost on our doorstep in North Sydney… it would’ve been rude not to throw some block runs into our Saturday Sweat…

That was enough for us though 😅

You runners are absolute savages 🙌🏼

Building your first strict ring muscle-up? 👇🏼

Here’s how we’re helping Claudia do the same.

It starts with developing the prerequisite strength:

5 deep dips
5 ring chin-ups, pulling nice and high

While that strength is developing, we’re working on the control and technique needed for a smooth transition through the rings.

Once that’s there… we put it all together and go for it!

Keep your eyes peeled to see if Claudia can get her first one by the end of September 👊🏼

💡 We spend a lot of time thinking about our hands in a handstand…

But right now, we’re teaching our members to feel what the rest of the body is doing too.

Your fingers are gripping the floor.
Your shoulders are pushing tall.
Your midline is keeping everything stacked.
Even your legs and toes are helping you find and maintain balance.

From your fingertips to your toes, everything has a job.

That’s when a handstand starts to feel less like you’re fighting to stay upside down… and more like something you can actually control.

Everyone loves seeing the finished product 👇🏼

The muscle up.
The handstand.
The first pull over.

What people don’t always see are the hundreds of holds, hangs and controlled basics that came first.

And the funny thing is… you never stop doing them.

Our newest members are learning them.
Our most experienced members are refining them.

That’s why you’ll see someone working on a muscle up in class… then moments later doing the same support hold as everyone else.

Because the basics aren’t where you start.
They’re what the big skills are built on 🧱

⚠️ Muscle ups don’t belong in conditioning workouts…

At least, that’s what most people believe.

❌ They’re too technical.
❌ Not everyone can do them.
❌ They’ll scare people away.

We see it differently.

Yesterday’s Sweat class included 25 muscle ups… for everyone.

That probably sounds a little crazy if you’ve never trained like this before.

But not everyone was doing the same version.

Some members were on the rings, others were on the bar, some were using bands, and others were working through jumping progressions.

💭 It’s pretty cool seeing members of all different abilities share the same challenge.

Because that’s what great coaching does.

It preserves the purpose while meeting you where you’re at.

Testing Week hits hardest when the whole room is winning 👊🏼

New strength PBs.
More muscle ups.
Longer handstand walks.

Plenty of moments that had the whole gym cheering 🙌🏼

But the numbers only tell half the story.

What we’re really celebrating is the weeks of consistency and hard work that made these moments possible!

We had way too much action to fit into one post … but here are a few of the big wins we managed to capture 🏆

Proud of this crew.
Let’s see what we can build next 👊🏼
