Funny Fitness Story “My alarm went off at 5.20am during surgery, assistant laughed as it said “boot camp”.

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

I was calling a client who was involved in life saving surgery to mention my praise and good wishes when before I could say anything, she quickly said “Are you calling as to why we haven’t seen you at boot camp”

Well given that she has been working around the clock recently, it’s understandable that she has missed a few Boot Camp exercise classes.

As my client often performs surgery in the middle of the night, the mobile phone alarm goes off at 5.20am, the theatre staff have a laugh when upon closer inspection the message says “Boot Camp

With all the negativity in the news and around the world, it is inspirational and enlightening to hear that miracles can happen and exceptionally talented and dedicated people can make a real difference to peoples lives.

Funny Fitness Story: Vet looked at the owners and could understand why their dog was so conditioned.

Funny Fitness Story this morning, when a client took their dog to the Vet to investigate why their dog was limping, the vet cast his gaze over to the owners and could instantly understand why their dog was so conditioned.

Maggie, our unofficial Fitstyler mascot had damaged her cruciate ligament and will require surgery.

While knee injuries happen to humans, they also happen to dogs.

So we hope to see Maggie back at Boot camp soon, maybe not necessarily a funny fitness story for Maggie.

Funny Fitness Story: Hot Air Balloon packed up faster than our boot camp

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

Funny Fitness Story this morning as we trained, a hot Air Balloon that landed near our Boot camp managed to land, deflate the balloon & managed to have it packed up faster than we did.

Given we only have cones and discs laid out on the ground, I found this quite amusing.
Maybe we can have a new exercise, Hot Air Balloon packing up.

Funny fitness story: Damaged bicycle after being left on roof racks while driving a 4WD through a low level car park

Funny fitness story: A very damaged bicycle after being left on roof racks while driving a 4WD through a low level car park in Melbourne.

So maybe what’s left of the bicycle can be put into good use, maybe build your own bicycle lawn mower.
So remember to a damaged bicycle remove it from the roof racks from your 4WD when entering a car park.

Last minute exercise on wedding day – 10km run with mother & bride. Now that is dedication & commitment.

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Funny Fitness Story, last minute exercise on wedding day -mother & Bride go on 10km run on wedding day.
What a great way to help with any last minute nerves.

I went to a wedding in country Victoria on the weekend and was suitably impressed about the Bride going on a 10km run at 6.30am, normally a brisk walk followed by champagne and breakfast is in order.

Well when you have a super mum who performs well at ironman triathlon events, a 10km run is the equivalent of a brisk walk for the average person.

The most amazing thing was the weather was far from spectacular, cold and overcast with a chilly breeze coming off the lake yet when the bride arrived the sun projected just enough beautiful warm light for the bride to walk down the aisle of this outdoor ceremony before resuming back to the cold & grey weather.
Even the 2 band members were wearing Goretex jackets and beanies, yet the weather delivered as preciously as required.

So thinking positively will deliver positive outcomes.

So there are no excuses when it comes to exercise, maybe not to be repeated to often for a mother and bride to go on a 10km run before on the wedding day.
