General notes about the Gym

Hi Everyone,

Just a couple of quick notes about the gym.

Training Stuff

Remember to try get as much as you cant out of every session you attend – it really is the only way to get the results you want from time spent. Some simple tips from my own training are:

– When doing push-ups, ‘spring’ up into the air every time. It doesn’t have to be a full clap, but if you can lift yourself into the air it really does make a difference.
– When skipping, pay attention to the round timer. Every time the bell rings, try and pick up the pace for the count of 10 (or 20 if you are brave).
– Hands up when you are punching – high starting points, high target points.
– Take your towel and your drink bottle with you around the circuit. Leaving this stuff up at the front of the gym doesn’t help much when you are down at the speed ball…take them with you, makes it easy to grab a quick drink without missing half a round.

Class Stuff

There are a lot of classes on offer at Round One Fitness and we are often asked what the difference is between one and the other. As those who have been coming for a few weeks (months!) will tell you, every class is different, but there are a few basic differences:

– Body Work will definitely have more weights than the other classes. Now the weights in these classes are only every ‘circuit weights’ – light weights, high reps – but there will be a higher quantity of strengthening activities in these circuits.
– Intense does away with the breaks between the rounds. As well as making your way from one station to the next, you will be asked to do something ‘extra’ – some burpees, push-ups, running, ab work…whatever the instructor might think of.

Don’t be scared of either class though – just come at the time that suits you the most and don’t worry too much about what the program says…working at your own pace through the class is what it is about, and doing something is infinitely better than doing nothing!

Safety Stuff

Something I have noticed is that more and more people are hitting the bags (and floor to ceiling balls) without gloves and in some cases without hand wraps. There are a lot of small bones in your hands and doing this really does put yourself at risk of injury – and with the floor to ceiling ball if you happen to make contact with the zip you could end up splitting your hand open.

You should always wear gloves – and if you are here more than once per week I would recommend you also wear some hand wraps. They don’t take long to put on – and doing it at the start of every class actually helps you focus on why you have come to the gym and what you hope to get out of the session. Another benefit of wraps is that they are easily washed – putting your bare hands in your gloves is a sure way to end up with sweaty, smelly gloves!

Both wraps and ezy-wraps are available from reception if you are interested in getting some…

Admin Stuff

Please make sure you check in at reception upon arrival. It only takes a moment or two to let reception know you are here, and it is important from a legal point of view that we keep track of everyone who is in the gym at all times.
