Read moreBack pain when exercising? 90% of the time it will come down to a lack of strength and stability through the core. Watch this video to learn how to effectively "prime" your core prior to exercise and get the stability your back needs to feel strong. Most of the time back pain is not a reason to skip exercising - in fact it's usually very manageable and often fixed with the right approach. Make sure you talk to your coach if you're experiencing any back pain while you workout. Be awesome. Coach Jake ....
Read moreDo you always feel motivated to go to work? No, but you do it anyway because it's important. Do you always feel motivated change your toddlers nappies? No, but you do it anyway because it's important (and partly because they stink) Are you important? YES, you most certainly are. Do your actions demonstrate that? Whether you're motivated or not, look after yourself because you're important and the people around you need you at your best. Does this mean you'll be perfect every day? Almost certainly not, if you fall off track, pick yourself up, dust yourself off and go again. Sleep. Eat well. Move your body. Practice some kind of ....
Read moreLet me you tell you a story. I fist heard this many years ago in a book by a guy called Jim Collins and it's stuck with me ever since. The story of the 20 Mile March. There were 2 group of expeditioners racing to get to the north pole (or the south pole - I can't remember ). The first group would go as far as they could each day, when the weather was good - they'd go 30,40+ miles and if the weather was bad they might only get a few or because they did so well the day before they might just bunker down for the day. The other group had a different strategy - no matter what, they would march 20 miles forward each day. Then they'd rest, recoup and go again. In the end ....
Read moreYou are never a victim of your circumstances, only your perspective. This is a simple but really important thing I'm about to say. I've seen this perspective ruin so many people's results, happiness, health and I'm sure it extends to other areas of life as well. It's the perspective of "I can't train as much as I want right now due to (insert circumstance here - work, kids, injury, whatever) so therefore I won't do anything. This is a really harmful belief that ends with people on the yo-yo life. Whether it is weight going up and down, fitness, health, mental health. It leads to inconsistent actions, which leads to inconsistent results. The solution? ....
Read moreThe process of achieving anything significant is hard. If you’re trying to improve your health or fitness it’s no different. So just remember when you don’t feel like training, when you feel like throwing in the towel. These are normal feelings. You don’t have to allow your feelings to dictate your actions. This is what hard looks like. Keep going. You are worth it. 💪💙 ....
Read moreWhat should I eat? This is the most common question that always pops up. We cover a lot of this in our induction but here's a quick recap 1- Success leaves clues. If you rewind the clock back 100+ years ago - there were very few overweight people and probably zero or very close to zero obese people. So what did they eat? 2- Meat, seafood, nuts, root vegetables, seasonal fruits etc etc. 3- The most simple way to look at what we should be eating (putting aside slight differences for individuals based on goals and individual biology. Each meal should have a protein source (meat, poultry, seafood etc), some veggies (think non starchy - greens etc), and a carb if ....
Read moreThe guy who tried to skip the line! Story time! Today I want to tell you about the guy who tried to skip the line and how it relates to your fitness goals and maybe even your life in general. A few weeks ago we arrived in Mexico after 4 flights and the best part of 2 days in airports and planes. It was my partner, our 2 year old son and I. Super tired, hungry and ready for a sleep we were greeted with a giant line up of probably 150-200 people at the immigration area. There were only 2 immigration agents working so this line was taking forever. After about 10 mins of not moving, this one guy ahead of us (let's call him "no patience Patricio") decided he was going to get ....
Read moreWhat are the best days to work out? The days you don't feel like it. It's on these days that not only do you get to work on your strength, fitness or fat loss goals but you get the added privilege on improving your mental muscle, self esteem and self respect. It's these days that have the biggest impact on who you become. The way I see it working out / health is as a whole lot more than just how you look or how many more chin ups you can do than Coach Eddie. To me it's a reflection of who you are. Are you someone who gives up when things get tough? Or someone who gets it done? Are you someone who does what they say they're going to do or someone who makes ....
Read moreFish Oil. One of the best and most recommended supplements on the market when it comes to general health and fat loss. It’s also one of the most commonly poorly manufactured with loads of low quality and even potentially harmful products on the market. Quality Matters ! Why is it important? Humans operate best when omega 3 to omega 6 ratio in the diet is 1:1 or 1:2 - the average modern day westerner sits somewhere around 1:16. This means most people have way too much omega 6 (mostly from grains) and not enough omega 3. The issue with this imbalance is that it causes chronic inflammation. Basically constant stress on the body which can lead to many ....

We have the right system for anyone to start with us!
PEPT is an amazing atmosphere, everyone very friendly and awesome trainers who push you to your best personal goals with lots of encouragement
Would absolutely recommend PEPT as a first preference if looking for a gym! They are inclusive, compassionate, driven but most of all supportive of whatever journey you are on. The atmosphere is always welcoming, and the PTs are fantastic at what they do, on a professional, and personal level. I wouldn't go anywhere else now! :)
I started at this gym about 18months ago but had to stop going because of a house move. But the pull was too strong and I had to start back again. This is not a gym, it’s a community of people who all have your back and are willing you to succeed. I feel so welcome and encouraged here, I would recommend PEPT Narangba to anyone, no matter the state of your fitness.
