Hey guys,
Here’s a quick video to help you with your technique on the floor to ceiling ball at home or in your Personal Training sessions.
The key is to start off slowly until you get in the flow and then build up your speed and start adding in some combos.
It is excellent training for your hand eye coordination, focus and concentration!
In this video we’ll also go through some combos and leg kicks.

Have fun and see you at training!

Congratulations Shawn!!
Congratulations to Fresh Fitness client Natasha who has been doing Personal Training with Ellyse for the last 6 months and achieved awesome results!
Here is her story below:
“I started training with Ellyse about 6 months ago and as a mother of three who hadn’t done any regular exercise in a long time, I was very apprehensive about my first session.
Ellyse put me at ease straight away and I left my first session feeling proud of what I was able to do and also a little bit sick!!!
During our training sessions, Ellyse seemed to intuitively know how hard she could push me while always making sure that I was successful during each session.
I also started doing Pilates with Ellyse which was great to calm my mind and move my body in a different way to what we did during our sessions.
When I started PT I wanted to lose weight and tone my body. But, Ellyse has given me more than that – she gave me confidence in what my body is capable of doing and a new found pleasure in regular exercise.
I am now working out 3 times a week and have completed 2 fun runs in the last 6 months – something I had always wanted to do but I had never felt I would be able to do.
Thanks Ellyse for your hard work, dedication, encouragement and support!!!”
Check out her results below:
Left arm – 1.2cm
Right arm – 1.7cm
Chest – 3cm
Waist – 3.5cm
Widest belly – 5cm
Hips – 4cm
Belly button – 3.4cm
Bottom – 4cm
Under butt- 0.5cm
Left calf – 2cm
Left mid thigh – 2cm
Left Upper thigh – 3.5cm
Right calf – 3cm
Right mid thigh- 0.3cm
Right upper thigh – 2.5cm
Total – 39.6 cm loss!!!!
Well done Natasha! We are really happy for you and the amazing results you have achieved 🙂
Not only have you lost 39.6 cms, your fitness levels and strength have massively improved and so has your mindset!
We just want to say CONGRATULATIONS to Danielle and Phil who have been training with us since the beginning of the year and have achieved inspirational results!
🙂
With their always positive attitudes at training, commitment, consistency, always giving 110%, and always with a smile – we are so happy for you both and the amazing results you have both achieved!
Starting off doing Personal Training with Carlie they lost over 10 kilos each in the first few months, continuing with our Fresh Fitness Winter Boot Camp they have now lost over 20 kilos each, and are looking and feeling fabulous!!
Phil also completed Tough Mudder with us in August, and says that with Fresh Fitness he has smashed what he originally set out to achieve!!
Check out their inspirational story and see their transformations below:
“We started training with Carlie and Shea in January and it is the best thing we have ever done.
We have both lost over 20kgs and are feeling great!
The best part has been the complete lifestyle change, now we are both fitter and healthier we get out and do a lot more on weekends instead of sitting around the house and we really enjoy training together.
I have tried getting fit many times before but have always fallen short of my goals but after starting to train with Fresh Fitness I have smashed what I set out to achieve and am still going, I am especially stoked I was able to do Tough Mudder!!
Danielle was always apprehensive about training, especially in groups but because of the the encouraging and supportive atmosphere that Shea and Carlie create she now loves training, especially bootcamp.
The fun and constantly changing workouts keep things interesting so we are always excited to get to training and see whats in store, instead of exercise feeling like a chore it’s something we can’t wait to do.
We can’t believe how much our lives have changed for the better and we can’t thank you enough!” – Phil Sproule

Well done Joyce for your amazing work!! 🙂
Many of us have goals that we want to achieve, but why is it that so many people simply don’t achieve them?
As you transition from where you are now, to where you want to be, you will likely pass through the following three phases to success.
If you can understand and recognise these phases, you will overcome getting stuck, and pass through to the next level as you journey towards successfully achieving your goals.
We usually start out in the first phase which is MOTIVATION.
This is where you are feeling motivated and pumped to achieve your goal.
You have had a burst of inspiration and motivation. You are committed to achieving your goals.
Doing what needs to be done feels easy in this phase.
You are excited and motivated. Everything flows because you have Motivation!!
Then somewhere along the line the motivation fades.
You don’t feel like doing what needs to be done anymore.
Something in life might have popped up to test you.
Your routine may have been disrupted and suddenly it all becomes too hard.
Where did your Motivation go?
This is where the path ends for a lot of people.
Because they don’t feel motivated anymore, they give up. Maybe not intentionally, but actions speak louder then words.
Maybe they still want the original goal, but for some reason can’t find the motivation to keep going.
Unless, they progress to Phase Two, which is SELF-DISIPLINE.
We all have things that come up in life, and we all find it easy to do the things that need to be done when we are feeling motivated.
But when the feeling of motivation disappears, as it inevitably does, we need a bit more substance to take it to the next level.
Self-Discipline, is the secret to getting from where you currently are now, to where you want to be.
It is what separates those, from those who ‘want it’ to those who ‘have it’.
Self- Discipline is what gets you up in the morning to do your early morning jog when you really would rather sleep in.
Self-Discipline is what makes you turn up to training when you have had a distraction come up which you could use as an excuse to not go.
Self-Discipline is what makes you continue to eat healthily when you are surrounded with temptation by friends or co-workers who are eating junk and questioning your new choices.
The phase of Self-Discipline is what tests your commitment.
It can be the hardest, and if you can pass through this phase, and move to the next level, you are almost there!!
The third and last phase of achieving your goals is: HABIT.
This is where doing what it takes has become a part of who you are.
It not longer takes motivation, or self-discipline, to get you to complete the actions needed to be done.
But rather you have changed.
It is now ingrained in your new personality, lifestyle and habits.
It has become an effortless part of the new person you have become.
And that is the secret to achieving long-lasting success.

Hey guys,
Here is a quick video to help you with your rope climbing. Excellent for building upper body functional strength, and will also come in handy for those of you doing Tough Mudder with us or any other adventure circuits this year!
The great thing about having functional strength is – you just never know when you might need it!!

Congratulations to Taryn for her amazing results – your dedication, positive attitude and hard work has been an inspiration!!
Taryn has been doing personal training with Ellyse for the last 6 months and has lost over 16kgs and two dress sizes, and has regained her fitness and strength and is looking and feeling fantastic.
Read her inspirational story and check out her pics below:
“I returned from a 16 month stint in Europe and beside seeing lots of countries, I saw lots of weight pile on. I came home 24kg’s heavier. Being fit when I left I had no idea how unfit I had become … That is ’till I met Ellyse. She nearly brought me to tears, nearly made me be sick and made me think twice before getting out my car on the morning of training. But that was in the beginning. I have come to love exercising again! Ellyse has gotten me through a lot. Not only how to be fit but stay fit! I will walk away from this experience with so much knowledge and determination to stick to my goals and reach them.
Well done Taryn for your amazing results!! 🙂

Hey guys,
Here is a quick video to help you with your handstand pushups so you can practice at home and smash them out in your Personal Training and Boot Camp sessions.
Happy New Year!
Wishing you a Happy, Healthy, & Amazing Year in 2013!
The beginning of the New Year is always a perfect time to stop and reflect, set new goals, and make a Fresh Start for the year ahead.
So take the time to reflect on the year that has just passed… and set new goals for what you want to achieve in the new year.
Because… “If you aim at Nothing, you are sure to hit it!”
So, looking back over the past year…
What has changed in the last 12 months?
What hasn’t changed?
What do you want to have achieved by this time next year?
What direction do you want your life to be headed in?
What are the small daily disciplines that you need to do, to get you one step closer to achieving your goals each day?
Take the time to write out a quick action plan to help keep you on track, for when life picks up the pace and things try to knock you off your path.
It takes consistent effort to stay on top of your life! So make a commitment now, to prioritise what is important to you.
Make 2013 your best year yet!
