Strength (weights) Training
Tuesday & Thursday 5 pm-6 pm: 10yrs-14yrs
Done properly, strength training offers many bonuses to young athletes,and is also a good idea for kids who simply want to look and feel better and have more confidence in everyday life. In fact, strength training can put your child on a lifetime path to better health and fitness.
Don’t confuse strength training with weightlifting, bodybuilding or power lifting. We will use primarily body weight exercises ,with a special emphasis on teaching the kids proper technique and safety.
I personally think strength training is a necessity for any boys competing in contact sports such as Rugby or AFL in Under12’s onward’s, to help prevent injuries.
We cannot hold a place for unless the term has been paid in full, so please call today on 9365 7033 to secure a spot .

We will be testing the kids on each area of fitness on the first and final week so we can chart their progress and also highlight what areas of their fitness needs some attention.
This class is a great entry level class suitable for all fitness levels.
