MEET THE TEAM
We thought it was time to reintroduce the faces behind Take Off Health & Fitness!

Take Off Health & Fitness was built around one simple belief, there is no single coaching style that is perfect for everyone.

Every person who walks into the gym has different goals, abilities, experience levels and needs. That’s why we’ve built a personal training team with different strengths and areas of expertise, allowing us to match each client with the coach best suited to them.

Our goal is to give every client the right coaching, structure and support to get more from their training and make meaningful progress towards their individual goals.

Whether you want to get stronger, lose weight, improve your fitness, move better, build confidence or feel healthier, there’s a coach at Take Off ready to help. No one size fits all approach. Quality coaching built around you, your abilities and your goals.

Results, Quality, Community 🚀

Christine has been a long-term client and her hard work, determination, and consistency are a true reflection of everything she has achieved throughout her fitness journey.

Chris first started training with us to improve her overall health and fitness, while also using strength training to help prevent the onset of osteoporosis. Since then, she has made significant improvements in her strength, running, energy levels, and overall confidence. She currently attends two personal training sessions each week and also runs with Wagga Road Runners every weekend.

When we asked Chris how she feels compared to when she first started, she said:
“I feel 100% better. Some people see my age and assume I can’t be challenged or achieve big goals, but Ben focuses on what I want to achieve rather than my age or background. That approach has given me the confidence to keep improving and achieve more than I thought I could.”

At Take Off Health & Fitness, we believe age or ability should never be something that limits what you can achieve. Everyone deserves the opportunity to improve their health, build strength, and work towards goals that are important to them, regardless of where they’re starting.

Well done, Chris. We’re incredibly proud of everything you’ve achieved and look forward to seeing what you accomplish next🚀

The abductor machine does more than just target your outer thighs—it plays a key role in building stronger, more stable lower-body muscles.
Glutes: Strengthens your glute medius and minimus, helping improve hip stability, posture, and overall lower-body strength.
Knees: Strong hip abductors help keep your knees properly aligned during movements like squats, lunges, running, and walking, which can reduce unnecessary stress on the joints.
Quads: While the focus is on your glutes and outer hips, stronger hip stability allows your quads to work more efficiently during compound exercises and everyday movements.
Add 2–4 sets of 10–15 controlled reps to your leg day, focusing on slow, controlled movements rather than heavy weight.
🔥 Strong hips = stronger lifts, healthier knees, and better performance.

Michele (Nelly) has been a long term client of ours, living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Michele has shown incredible resilience, determination, and consistency throughout her journey.

From day one, Michele committed to improving her health, managing her symptoms, and creating a healthier lifestyle. Despite the challenges that MS can present, she arrives at every session with a positive attitude, a willingness to work hard, and a smile on her face. Her commitment to her health has been nothing short of inspiring.

Since beginning her training journey, Michele has achieved significant improvements in her balance, strength, fitness, and overall wellbeing. She has lost weight, increased her exercise capacity, and progressed to completing high-intensity boxing sessions, something that wasn’t possible when she first started. Most importantly, she has experienced noticeable improvements in her MS symptoms, including better physical function, improved cognitive wellbeing, increased energy levels, reduced stress, and better sleep quality.

When asked what stands out most about training, Michele highlighted the welcoming and supportive environment, the knowledge and professionalism of the coaching team, and the enjoyment she gets from every session. She loves the structure, the accountability, and being able to see her progress over time.

Michele’s journey is a reminder that exercise isn’t just about building strength or losing weight it’s about improving quality of life, building confidence, and creating healthier habits that support long-term wellbeing.

We’re incredibly proud of everything Michele has achieved and can’t wait to see what she accomplishes next🚀

The kettlebell swing is one of the most effective exercises for developing posterior chain strength, power, and athletic performance. When performed correctly, it targets the glutes, hamstrings, and core, while teaching explosive hip extension that transfers well to running, jumping, sprinting, and many daily movements.

One of the biggest misconceptions with the kettlebell swing is that it is a squat exercise. In reality, it is a hip hinge movement. The power should come from driving your hips forward, not from squatting down and lifting the kettlebell with your arms.

Key Cues when performing the movement
- Set your feet shoulder-width apart and position the kettlebell slightly in front of your body.
- Hinge at the hips by pushing them back while maintaining a neutral spine.
- Keep your chest proud, shoulders relaxed, and core braced throughout the movement.
- Drive your hips forward explosively and allow the kettlebell to “float” to chest height from the force generated by your hips.
- Keep your arms relaxed and think of them as hooks connecting you to the kettlebell rather than actively lifting it.
- Squeeze your glutes hard at the top of each repetition and finish in a tall, strong position.

Common Mistake:
Squatting the movement shifts the load away from the glutes and hamstrings, often places unnecessary stress on the lower back, and reduces the power-producing benefits of the exercise.

A simple drill to help reinforce proper technique is to place a second kettlebell directly underneath you. If you squat, the kettlebell you’re swinging will often collide with it. If you hinge correctly and load the hips back, the swing path remains clear and efficient.

Remember, the kettlebell swing is about power, timing, and hip drive, not lifting with your arms. Master the hinge pattern first, and the power will follow.

Save this post for your next workout and give these cues a try. Stay tuned for next week’s Take Off Tip! 🚀
