Ok athletes, I have some BIG news I’ve been bursting to tell you all about… I’m ridiculously excited to announce that I’m going to be stepping up alongside Shannan Ponton to take on the role of trainer on the completely revamped version of Channel TEN’s The Biggest Loser: Transformed!
Seems straight forward to think that kids need to be active every day to promote healthy growth and development, right? Unfortunately, due to increasingly sedentary lifestyles and poor diet, Australian kids are becoming more overweight or obese; one NSW 2010 study assessing kids from years K to 10 indicated the number of NSW children who were overweight or obese had risen from around one in 10 in 1985 to almost one in four in 2004. That’s 25% of our kids! Continue reading
Well, 2016 is really kicking in to gear now and to make sure your training is on track, we have a whole bunch of brand new things going on at AGOGA that we can’t wait to tell you about! We’ll be quick about it, here goes…
Many of you have been asking for a fitness test to help measure your progress. Well, you asked for it and you got it! We’ve spent many months designing the perfect, tortuous test of all round athletic ability across cardio, strength, power, agility and of course, tenacity. We introduce to you the AGOGA Challenger, our new benchmark fitness test where you can compete against the AGOGA community, including the AGOGA trainers and our professional Athletes.
As some of you might know, on July 1st AGOGA beat the business odds and turned one year old! Considering the first year is the riskiest time for any business, the AGOGA team thought we’d celebrate by finally asking our fave boss and the woman behind our brand all of the questions we want answered when it comes to taking the plunge and starting your own business.
The best way to keep your motivation up, especially during winter, is to train with your mates! That’s why, in association with Perkville.com, we’re about to release a new rewards program.
It’s like a frequent flyer program, except you earn points by doing things like referring friends, or helping us spread the word by talking about us on Facebook.
Leaner, Faster, Stronger…you might be tempted to pick just one of these classes to attend 3 or 4 times per week because you want to be, for example, stronger and don’t really care about being faster. While there’s nothing wrong with that, the latest science tells us that you’ll get better results from doing a combination of all of them every week.
At AGOGA we have a big focus on functional training, designing programs that teach your body to move the way it was built to.
With our Free Movement classes, we take this approach to training into the great outdoors, where we have plenty of opportunity to practically apply it in a natural environment.
I just wanted to drop you all a note to tell you a little more about our memberships and what benefits you get from signing up.
