Straight from the mouth of a former client who in a temporary lapse of reason deserted us to go to Fenix gym ……

Mary joined Fenix as several of her friends joined and they were all going to go together and motivate each other etc. which didn’t end up happening but she’d she had joined for 12 months (of misery). Whilst being a member of Focus Fitness and Massage Studio gym, she loved the classes and the gym, as it is small and personal and not like a Big (Fenix) Gym.

“And (Focus Fitness) this is the kind of gym that you look forward to going to,” said Mary

We’re often asked how a personal trainer can help you.

The answer is quite simple for many people: A personal trainer can help you to reach your health and fitness goals sooner.

Maybe you’ve never been to a gym. At Focus Fitness & Massage Studio Gym, our personal trainers will help you feel more comfortable in a gym environment.

You’ll be shown how to use the equipment, and we’ll work with you to develop a fitness program and a routine.

If you’ve never been to a gym, or haven’t been for a long time, then get off to a good start by working for the first month or so with a personal trainer.

If a trainer helps you make this important lifestyle change, it’s worth it.

Regular exercise is vital for good health, but poor knowledge of basic safety techniques could lead to injuries, which is why many people choose a Personal Trainer.

For example, common sports injuries like shin splints are less likely to occur if you run on softer surfaces and allow sufficient recovery time.

Exercise is a critical component of good health, especially as you age. Exercise will help you:
Sleep better
Lose weight, gain weight, or maintain weight, depending on your needs
Improve your resistance to fight infections
Lower your risk of cancer, heart disease and diabetes
Help your brain work better, making you smarter

If you fail to plan, then you are planning to fail. At Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym you can sign up for individual sessions with a personal trainer who can provide you a comprehensive program.

One client at Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym has been working hard to achieve a fit and healthy body, turning her life around, and feeling so much better about her business.

It’s easy to get caught up in “stuff”, the busy-ness of everyday living, that we can forget to give some attention to our most imortant assest: Ourselves.

Have you noticed, that when you’re feeling healthy, your life seems so much better, and that can reflect in your work, or your business.

As our bookkeeper pointed out – when’s the last time that you gave your business a health check? For many people that don’t have their own business, it’s important to remember that having your personal finances in order can be just as important. There’s many benefits in outsourcing your bookwork, just as there are many health benefits in having a personal trainer.

The biggest challenge that many clients face, is not the exercising, but the reasons to keep you exercising.

It’s much easier to sit on your armchair contemplating exercise, so why should you continue your fitness program?

Like all businesses, coffee shops come and go. So where is the best coffee shop in Mudgeeraba these days?

We used to go to Rick’s cafe aka as My Dish – until he sold it. After that, the business went down hill

IMHO the best coffee shop in Mudgeeraba has to be that one that’s tucked away in a little retail complex that most people just drive past and often don’t even notice

On the Corner of Swan Lane and Railway street, just to the north east of Mudgeeraba’s “village green”, you’ll find Cafe Cino

Rory has a reputation for souring fresh ingredients and a delightful range of cakes and pastries.

Cafe Cino is just across from the main shops, Mudgeeraba Markets Shopping Centre, on the corner of Swan Lane and Railway Streets in Mudgeeraba

We find their coffee shop/ cafe very handy, serving a selction of breakfasts, lunches and morning /afternoon teas

Another story about the flight from those Fenix gyms, comes from one of our past members of Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym

We’ll protect her identifty and call her “Mary”

Mary phoned us at the gym saying that she wanted to get back into training. Mary used to come to our gym, but then joined Fenix as several of her friends joined and they were all going to go together and motivate each other etc etc

To everyone’s surprise, that didn’t end up happening and she had joined for 12 months (to end beginning June)

Funny how things work out ….

Mary went onto to say that she has never felt better than 12 months ago when she was here at Focus, and loves the classes and the gym, as it is small and personal and not like a Big Gym.

“And this is the kind of gym that you look forward to going to,” said Mary

At Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym, we don’t spend heaps on glossy brochures and marketing like the BIG two supermarkets.

Since our business is built on our reputation, and through word-of-mouth referals, you won’t see a great deal of advertising around Mudgeeraba.

This month we teamed up with Tallai General Store to distribute some flyers for the benefit of people that may be new to the area.

As chance would have it, the company that distributes the leaflets were also distributing flyers for two national gym chains. One woudl think that they could use a bit of common senss and advise the three competitors of their dilemma.

Who cares about customer service? Certainly not a Mudgeeraba business owner that’s no longer in business, and didn’t listen to his customers

We pride ourselves on customer service , as Mary told us. She said that she has never felt better than when she was here at Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym, and loves the classes and the gym, as it is small and personal and not like a Big Gym.

“And this is the kind of gym that you look forward to going to,” said Mary

There’s so many personal trainers around, how do you know which one to select in Mudgeeraba?

A great place to start is by asking your family, friends or work colleagues if they can recommend anyone

Norm Cavanagh has been a personal trainer in the Mudgeeraba area for over five years, and is well known to many of the locals. He’s built up a reputation theough his personal training, and most of the persoanl training business that comes through his Mudgeeraba gym is through word-of-mouth.

At Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym you’ll find a range of Personal Training packages to select from – the best way to approach is is to take advantage of the free guest pass

At Focus Fitness and Massage Studio Gym in Mudgeeraba we’ve combined the benfits of yoga with the benefits of Pilates, and are running a Yolates course.

Yolatesi hasbeen established on a very tried and true, historically proven form of exercise.

You see, Yoga is focused on your flexibility and then strength and Pilates is focused on your stability, and then your strength and flexibility.

If you’re looking for core body strength, you’ll find that Pilates helps. Then there are people that have concerns about being hurt in yoga classes because they may not have developed your core strength to move through some of the positions.

We’ve combined the best of both disciplines to create “Yolates”.

We’ve been holding Yoaltes classes on a Monday afternoon from 5.00pm – 6.00pm
