Here's a fun "little" video about some of the differences between our barbells we have here at the gym that might be able to help you!

If you dont care about which barbell you grab because you're too strong for it to matter than you can disregard everything mentioned in this video!

Standard Barbell: Nothing special worth noting other than its good ole reliable

Olympic Style Barbell: Okay I get it, this ain't no eleiko quality barbell but its ours and we like it! It doesnt have the centre knurling, and the sleeves and collar of the barbell spin alot nore for cleans and snatches.

Ohio Power Bar: This bad boy is the real deal with aggressive knurling aswell as the centre knurling with minimal spin on the sleeves. Perfect for benching and squating heavy weight with minimal bend.

35lbs Bar: We have a couple of these at our gym and they're great for beginners or people with smaller hands for certain exercises as the shaft is thinner.

Training Bar: This is another excellent choice for people just starting out, non-agressive knurling, light weight at only about 20lbs, but dont load this thing too heavy! It'll bend on yeah, really meant for teaching beginners or lighter loading for certain exercises.

Wow thanks for the new tutorial, only took me a couple years to finally make one!

But I'll see if I can help people out with working out if you're a current member or not, you can use this little guide that covers pretty much everything you need for squatting.

Feet Position - Whatever is most comfortable

Knees - Follow mid foot, they can go past toes

Hips - Sit back and down, go as low as you can, or is comfortable for you, try not to let hips shoot up.

Torso - Big breath for big brace for big weight, if you're not using heavy loads for you, you dont need a big brace. Tight back if you're barbell squating

Head - Look forward or up so the body follows

All good things must come to an end...

The record board is getting a fresh coat of paint with a a big update! This is definitely going to ruffle some feathers! But as the saying goes, if you did it before, you can do it again! Best of luck to whoever makes it up on the new board!

Luckily I snagged pictures of the old ones incase anyone is curious as to where they might land on the all time leader board!

Fourteen years ago, I took the leap and created Postma Fitness with a simple goal: to create an unmatched facility where everyone felt welcome, supported, and encouraged to become the best version of themselves.

What started as a dream became so much more than a gym. It became a community. Together we’ve celebrated milestones, overcome challenges, shared laughs, and built friendships that extend far beyond these walls. Watching so many of you grow stronger—physically and mentally—has been one of the greatest privileges of my life.

Over the past few years, I’ve also had to listen more closely to my own health. After living with the effects of multiple concussions, I’ve realized it’s time to make a change and focus on the next chapter. This isn’t a decision that came easily, but it’s one that I know is right.

I’m incredibly excited that Brett Drewery will be leading Postma Fitness Centre into its next chapter. No one knows this community better, and PFC is in great hands. I have every confidence that Postma Fitness will continue to be the leader in fitness in Blenheim and community for many years to come.

To every member, every coach, every supporter, and everyone who walked through these doors over the past 14 years—thank you. You trusted me, challenged me, supported me, and helped build something that I’ll always be proud of.

This isn’t goodbye. I’ll still be around, cheering you on from a different role. I’m excited for the future of PFC.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for an unforgettable 14 years.
