As part of RNIS Healthy living month.
Fitness First relaunched and RNIS was invited to try them for one week
As part of Bupa's best blog competition for 2015
And so they did attend.
Fitness first started in 1990's and today they have branches all over Australia.
The Melbourne Central one is quite good. We enjoyed the sauna, the exercise bike, the kettleball class and the hardcore one. We tried everything.
The classes are at lunchtime and during the evening and they go for half an hour. Do not have food less than half an hour before your gym sessions as it takes about half an hour for your food to digest. You will get sick and sore stomach from it if you go straight after food.
The kettle ball was great, we did lots of lunges for 30 minutes. But was easily tired afterwards. I might have to do some at home everyday. Lifting a heavy 6kg ball was hard. At home I don't have 6 kg balls. My instructor was great in showing me the techniques.
The instructors are lovely and they take you through step by step as to what you need to do. At the bike we burned 103 cal per half an hour and we rode 7km. On the first day I was super tired.
There are lockers available for use by the members.
The shockwave was the better one of the two classes that I went to. Here you can try lots of different things in three rounds. Each time after the first time it gets faster and easier. This shockwave there was rowing, jumping, block climbs and running. And giving my bum and legs a good workout.
Membership starts from $104 per month.
Want a snack afterwards? You can buy the health bars for $2.20- $3 or you can bring your own. I'm lucky to be near an office full of free water but if you are not then its best to bring your own.
