Fitness, Weight Loss and Healthy Eating
“We love introducing people to what we do. We teach you how to move well, which will keep you injury-free and inspired to continue pursuing your health and fitness goals. The long-term result is some amazingly fit people. But just because you see some very fit members coming through our doors doesn’t mean they started that way. ”
FITNESS
There is nothing like feeling physically strong and fit —especially when, as a woman, you’re often expected to be physically weak (yes, this concept makes us mad, too!)
Watching your body and your strength transform as you become increasingly capable of doing things you never thought you could do is absolutely priceless.
At CHALKBOX we combine strength & conditioning in our program. You will lift, run, row jump, throw and more. We will teach you how to move well and safe, then we add load and intensity.
LOSE WEIGHT
Strength training is essential for managing your body fat and maintaining a healthy body composition. If weight loss is your goal, as you lose body fat, if you’re not strength training, it’s likely that your body will become a softer version of itself. If you strength train and add muscle as you reduce your body fat, your body becomes firmer and tighter, which is more along the lines of what many women envision when they embark on a weight loss journey. There is no wrong way to have a body. However, we want you to understand the physical effects that typically take place to help you ensure that all your effort leads you toward what you envision.
COMMUNTY & CONFIDENCE
How often did you walk into a gym where you felt everyone glared at you or even judged? At CHALKBOX, everyone in the gym are there to pick you up, not put you down!
You will have a different experience here as your build your confidence with new found abilities. This intrinsically shapes your life/body/relationship because you will have found value in yourself through your own efforts. You no longer have to constantly measure your worth or happiness by a scale!
HEALTHY EATING
There is probably no topic in fitness and weight management more controversial and ever-changing than what to eat to have the body, performance, and health you want.
Everywhere you turn, a book, a website, or the person sitting next to you at a restaurant is advocating for a new dietary strategy, the latest food to avoid, or even a new way to time when you eat. These nutrition trends are often based on someone’s personal experience with a nutritional change, or the experience of someone they know, and they assume it will work just as well for you.
We organise several times a year a Change Challenge were you will learn all about the relationship between nutrition, exercise and your body.
Last to finish gets the biggest cheers. That doesn't happen everywhere.
These clips give you a peek into our fitness community. There's always a buzz going. Every workout is a challenge, for everyone. We come in all shapes and forms and every time we do it together. This is FITNESS REDEFINED.
