I KNOW I SAID I WOULDN’T CHANGE THE LOWER BODY STRENGTH ROUTINE AT BOOSTfit

But then a new routine came out...

And, well... I had to give it a go!

We do love a bit of Katy Perry – Dark Horse, and I know that routine pretty well...

BUT tonight at BOOSTfit, we're giving Jessie J a try!

The only question is...

Will I actually remember the entire routine?!

Because there are a few ways this could go:

You all love it, and we say goodbye to Katy for a while

OR...

Jessie J gets politely shown the door, and Katy gets an invitation to our Christmas party.

Either way, there'll be weights, music, probably a few mistakes...

And definitely some laughs!

⏰ 7:30–8:30 PM

Come and see whether Jessie J survives her first BOOSTfit class!

See you tonight, BOOSTers!

What a wonderful session!

I may have got a few of the routines wrong...

But I did get my picture this time!

Progress, people. PROGRESS. 🀣

We moved, we sweated, we laughed, we got a few things wrong, and somehow, in between everything else, we even started talking about a Christmas 'do!

I love that BOOSTfit isn't just about the workout.

It's about the music, the laughs, the people, the friendships... and apparently, planning our Christmas celebrations when we're barely into autumn!

And if you've been thinking about giving BOOSTfit a try but haven't quite plucked up the courage yet...

THIS IS YOUR SIGN.

You don't need to know the routines.
You don't need to be super-fit.
You don't need rhythm.
And you definitely don't need to worry about getting things wrong β€” clearly, even the instructor doesn't!

Come on your own, bring a friend, or just turn up and see what it's all about. We'll be happy to have you

Wednesdays
7:30–8:30 PM

Come for the workout. Stay for the laughs. You might even end up helping us plan the Christmas 'do!

We'd love to see you next week!

So... I got back to Manchester today after a week away, feeling pretty relaxed.

I was feeling good. Nice and chilled.

Then I remembered...

BOOSTfit is tomorrow!

I was actually a little worried that my StressBust might be a bit rubbish after a week off.

Then I spent about five minutes on the M62.

And suddenly I was thinking...

Actually, I could really use a bit of Stress Bust right now!”

Because let's be honest, there are some days when you just need somewhere to*punch and kick your frustrations out β€” and the M62 was definitely giving me plenty of reasons today!

By the time I got home, I was wishing it was Wednesday already.

So if the traffic has got you going, you've had one of those days, or you just fancy an hour of music, movement and a bit of stress-busting...

COME AND JOIN US TOMORROW!

πŸ“ Lakeside Creative Arts Centre, Newmillerdam
πŸ—“ Wednesday
⏰ 7:30–8:30 PM

And BTW... BOOSTfit isn't all about the Stress Bust!

We also:

BOOST your strength
Shake it off with some great music
Stress Bust with plenty of punching and kicking
Stretch it all out at the end
And, of course, have a laugh along the way!

The Stress Bust is just my favourite bit.

Traffic stress? Work stress? Just need to get out of the house?

Come and BOOST it out with us.

Put your trainers by the door and come and get your BOOSTfit fix tomorrow!

πŸ˜‚ TRUE STORY.

Me: β€œRight, we NEED to take a picture before class tonight. People need to see that people actually come to BOOSTfit β€” because we're always far too sweaty afterwards for a decent picture!”

Everyone: β€œOkay!”

Class starts.

Me:*β€œOh... WE FORGOT TO TAKE THE PICTURE. πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ We'll do it after class.”

Everyone: β€œOkay!”

Class ends.

Everyone leaves.

Me: β€œWE FORGOT TO TAKE THE PICTURE AGAIN.”

So...

There is absolutely NO evidence of the fun we had at BOOSTfit this week.**

You're just going to have to take my word for it.

But if you're looking for a class where everyone is as bad as each other, nobody takes themselves too seriously, and you can have a genuinely good time while getting your workout in...

COME AND JOIN US!

Wednesday 23 September
7:30–8:30 PM

You don't need to know the routines.
You don't need to be super-fit.
You don't need rhythm.
And you definitely don't need to worry about getting it wrong.

Just turn up. We'll have the fun sorted.

Thinking about giving BOOSTfit a try? Make 23 September the night you finally come along!

Bring a friend or come on your own β€” we'll be happy to see you. πŸ’›

Just getting ready for our last Move it or Lose it class of the week!

Today's class is a little bit different β€” it's a mixture of our traditional Move it or Lose it class and our Strength & Circuits class.

So, what does that mean?

Well… you get to move to a bit of The Three Degrees, Whitney Houston, and Britney Spears (amongst others), then do two circuits of strength exercises!

We'll have a bit of everything β€” some cardio, some strength, some balance, some flexibility… and, of course, plenty of fun!

And when it comes to the strength work, there's absolutely nothing scary about it.

Our lightest weight is just 0.5 kg β€” roughly the same as a can of soup.

Our heaviest is 1.5 kg β€” about the same as three cans of beans.

Most of us probably lift more than that when carrying a bag of groceries!

The important thing is that we're giving our muscles a reason to stay strong β€” and that's incredibly important as we get older.

So come along, move, laugh, sing, and maybe even have a little Whitney moment!

You don't have to be fit. You don't have to be strong. You just have to show up and give it a go.

And if you've been thinking about coming along, make TODAY the day you stop thinking about it and actually come!

Bring yourself, wear something comfortable, and we'll take care of the rest. No experience, no fancy kit, and no need to keep up with anyone else. Just come and have some fun while doing something good for your body.

Fridays – 10:00am
Walton Village Hall

Friendly, supportive, and suitable for all abilities β€” seated options are always available.

Don't sit there thinking, β€œI really should give that a try…” β€” come and join us! We'd love to see you!

BOOSTfit is on tonight!

And we're bringing the Kaiser Chiefs back!

Okay... not actually the Kaiser Chiefs.
Just their music.

But that's close enough, right?!

Expect plenty of movement, a bit of sweat, lots of laughs, and, quite possibly, me getting carried away when the music comes on!

You don't need to know the routines.
You don't need perfect coordination.
You just need to show up and give it a go.

Bring a friend, come on your own, or just turn up and see what happens. There'll be a warm welcome waiting for you. πŸ’›

Don't sit there thinking about it... Put your trainers on and get yourself to BOOSTfit!

Come for the workout.
Stay for the Kaiser Chiefs...
Well, their music anyway!

If you thought I'd forgotten that tonight was BOOSTfit…

I DID NOT!

I've been kicking and punching around the living room, trying to re-learn the StressBust routine I introduced last week.

It turns out I got some of the moves wrong...

And I've also discovered that I need higher ceilings in my house.

The getting-it-wrong part doesn't matter β€” we still had fun, got a great workout, and nobody really knew which bits I was supposed to be doing anyway!

As for the ceiling...

I may need to invest in another light fixture.

So, want to join a class where the instructor occasionally makes up the routine on the fly?

Tonight's your chance!

Stay for the laughs.
And don't worry β€” I promise you won't hit (or kick) a light fixture.

I'll try to keep those to myself.

Thank you, ladies, for a fabulous BOOSTfit class last night!

We started by watching a little bit of the eclipse πŸŒ™βœ¨ and then got down to business...

We moved.
We sweated.
We went the wrong way.
And we laughed pretty much the whole time.

Honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way.

And I do have one apology to make...

I'm sorry I got rid of Katy Perry!

But I promise she'll be making her triumphant return next week!

Same place, same BOOSTfit chaos, and hopefully a little more Katy.

I know that coolness won't last long once we start moving!
