Body Overhaul Challenge Will Kick Off Soon!

DOES this look like your New Year’s resolution list?

1. Get fit

2. Lose weight

3. Gain muscle

4. Eat healthier

5. Feel better

Time to get into the best shape of your life! Dolphins Health Precinct Body Overhaul Challenge kicks off on February 21 and promises to enable you to change how you look, feel and think about health, fitness and wellbeing.

This challenge provides a holistic approach to achieving optimal health. Over 12 weeks our training team will put you through a step-by-step guide to transform your body, lifestyle, mind and focus to allow you to become the best you can be.

“We had phenomenal results last season and our trainers are keen to assist their clients in achieving equal or better results this time around,” said DHP PT supervisor Angela Mitrovic.

DHP’s PT team has expertise in fitness and exercise physiology, nutrition and sports psychology and they can provide you with the ongoing guidance, support and information throughout the challenge to supplement and enhance your training program.

This ensures that you not only achieve real life changing results during the program but that you learn the skills and develop the mindset to maintain that change as you continue on your fitness journey.

The challenge focuses on an overall goal achievement of the winner and not based on weight loss as the main criteria.

The total fat loss from the last challenge was 112.7kg with total centimetres loss of 707.5. Robyn Doyle and Mark South took top spot, with both winning $500 worth of the $1500 plus prize pool of training equipment supplied by Hart Sport, boxing gear supplied by RIPT, free personal training sessions and vouchers supplied by local business in the area.

Register your interest for the DHP Body Overhaul Challenge at Reception. 

Spring Fitness Challenge (get involved!)

Have you seen the NEW Spring Fitness Challenge outside the amenities area in DHP Gym?

The challenges change seasonally and are a great way to get involved. Try a single challenge (or many!) and compete with other gym members. You do need a Personal Trainer or Staff Member to witness your challenge before your name can be added to the 'board of fame' - but for some friendly competition it's definitely worth it!

GAME ON!

The Results are In: Body Overhaul Challenge

Dolphins Health Precinct Body Overhaul Challenge 2014

The start of February 2014 saw the commencement of DHP’s 12 week Body Overhaul Challenge. 

The Challenge was the first in what will be periodical programs to be run by the DHP Personal Training Department. The challenge took 36 members through a series of educational seminars, and personal training sessions. 

It certainly wasn’t an easy task, and I’m sure for most there were some tough times. Let’s face it changing your habits by developing new ones does not always come easy. But the results at the end of the period are OUTSTANDING to say the least!

Our male runner up was Beau Devine with Craig Althaus taking out the winner’s title.

Our female runner up was Suzanne Bell with Sue Althaus taking out the other winner’s title. It was truly amazing to see a husband and wife not only change their whole lifestyle together but to also be crowned the winners of the DHP Body Overhaul Challenge together.

• In total the whole group lost an incredible 171.40 kilos. 
• Collectively the whole group also lost 971.50 centimetres.

We have to say that we are immensely proud of the achievements of this group. The dedication shown was simply inspirational and we sincerely hope that we have made a change to the lives of these members; changes that they can take away and use for the rest of their lives.

Here are some of the comments from members who took up the challenge:

• “Thanks for the support I got during this challenge from the gym”
• “There was so much to learn and so much knowledge given.”
• “Loved the challenge feeling pumped and motivated to continue”

At Dolphins Health Precinct we are dedicated to making a difference, so if you are keen to take the first step call the team at Dolphins on 3880 3729 and put your name down on our waiting list for details on our next Body Overhaul Challenge! 

Good Luck to Body Overhaul Challengers!

Dolphins Health Precinct would like to wish all 34 in the Body Overhaul Challenge the best of luck. You have all taken a brave and confident step into a great 12 week program!

DHP Fitness Challenge Board

Have you noticed the new DHP Fitness Challenge Board? Located on the wall in between the male and female change rooms.

It's an opportunity to have your name on the board for doing a one off exercise by the amount of reps, heaviest weights or timing - or trying multi-challenges. 

Anyone is welcome to participate... maybe you would like a change from your current program or maybe you don’t have a program and would like to try an exercise from the board.

The Fitness Challenge Board works on the proviso that all entries onto the board are legitimate, and you need to have a staff member or witness before you write your entry onto the board.

Have fun and good luck!

Well Done to the 10 Week Challenge Participants!

We wanted to acknowledge the fantastic effort by the 10 Week Challenge participants as their over half way through their challenge. Good luck to you all, finish strong!

Well Done to the DHP 10 Week Challenge Participants

Last night signified the completion of the Dolphins Health Precinct 10 Week Challenge. All participants put in a tremendous effort and were presented their awards and rewards for their enthusiasm and drive.

Some stats for the challenge:

• 5 Trainers involved – Aaron, Ryan, Marc, Chloe, Natelle
• 14 participants
• 55+ kilos lost
• 250cm lost
• 8 weeks duration

Stay tuned for the next DHP 10 Week Challenge!

Staff Challenge = Successfully Completed!

After 10 weeks of determination the staff challenge is complete.

You might be asking yourself who is the winner, but after looking through the results you will see that everyone is a winner! Not only have they achieved results beyond their expectations but the experience gained in establishing healthy eating habits, learning healthy tips, planning and also being a little selfish at times, to make sure they fit in a session with their trainer.

The trainers involved were Ryan Andrews and Aaron Wheeler which deserve a big congratulations as they positioned and motivated the staff to these amazing results.

In total there was a loss of:

• 254.5cm lost between the 5 participants
• 40kg lost between the 5 participants

As the teams were competing against each other I can comfortably say that Wayne Miller and Peter Hurley won the weight loss side of things. In regards to the overall body percentage, the ladies (Danielle, Jody and Rayleen) came out on top. As for the overall body percentage winner, in this years' 10 week staff challenge, was Danielle O’Conner.

Congratulations to everyone involved.... keep up the hard work!

Staff & Management Weight Battle - UPDATE

L - R: Rayleen, Danielle & Jody
Ryan (Personal Trainer)

L - R: Wayne, Peter & Tony
Ryan (Personal Trainer)

EVERYONE enjoys a challenge and the staff and management at Redcliffe Leagues Club are no different. Group operations manager Justin Charlish has launched a Healthy 10-Week Challenge with two teams of three drawn from club management and DHP. “You could call it a battle of the sexes or a chance to battle it out with management,” Justin said.

The three managers are general manager Tony Murphy, gaming manager Wayne Miller and catering manager Peter Hurley. DHP personal trainer Ryan Andrews has his work cut out for him with this challenge, but was keen to jump at the opportunity to push these guys to achieve their goals and change their lives.

The three DHP challengers are Jody Hollingsworth, Danielle O’Connor and Rayleen Beveridge. “All competitors in this health rivalry challenge are super excited about changing their lives and challenging each other in the process,” Justin said. “I introduced the healthy challenge because we see and hear it all the time on TV, newspapers and radio about switching to that lifestyle. “A healthy lifestyle should really be something that overflows into your daily work environment and routine. Seeing that you spend most of your week at work, you should always achieve a balance which will make you feel fresh and good about yourself. Best of all you will be more productive at work. “Not only does the challenge bring out some healthy competitiveness, it also forms a bond, a connection where we all support each other.

The challengers even monitor what each participant eats and they motivate each other when passing during the day. “Make sure if you see these familiar faces in the gym, say hi and give them some encouragement.” Justin said the challenge was launched in late July and after one week the changes have been outstanding.

• Males in week 3 have lost 59cm between them
• Females in week 1 have lost 22cm between them

DHP will also offer corporate workplace challenges so if any business are interested they can contact DHP for details.
