I OWN A GYM… AND HERE’S WHAT I WISH EVERY BEGINNER KNEW. 😂

You don’t need to be fit to join a gym.

You don’t need to know how to lift weights.

You don’t need fancy gym gear.

And you certainly don’t need good banter… some of our members are living proof of that. 👀😂

But seriously…

One of the biggest things holding people back from starting their fitness journey is the fear of not being good enough.

Not fit enough. Not strong enough. Not confident enough.

That’s exactly why we’re here.

We coach you, support you and help you progress from wherever you’re starting.

No egos. No expectations. Just real people, proper coaching and a community that makes you feel welcome.

Whether it’s Fitness or Wellness, everyone has to start somewhere. 💪

💬 Be honest… what’s the biggest thing that’s ever put you off joining a gym?

🔥 NEW COACH 🔥

I’m Corey 👋

Co-owner, coach and normally found somewhere around the gyms talking shit 😂

I’ve been into training pretty much my whole life. Started off with strength training, became a Bench Press World Champion at 16 and then somehow ended up running stupid distances instead.

I’ve done multiple ultramarathons and recently completed my first Backyard Ultra.

I’ve already been coaching at CFB for a while, but I’m buzzing to be taking on more classes and getting more involved with the coaching side of things.

I love being around the gyms, especially front of house chatting to everyone, and seeing what we’re building across all the facilities.

Looking forward to plenty more coaching, training and probably a lot more talking shit 😂🤝

This wasn’t how I pictured this race ending.

I’d prepared for the tired legs, the dark loops, the lack of sleep and the battle in my own head.

What I hadn’t prepared for was having the decision taken out of my hands. With my ankle swelling and then a rash climbing my leg something just wasn’t right…

I wasn’t ready to stop. Mentally, I still wanted another loop. And that’s probably the hardest part to accept.

But I’ve had a few days to look back at it differently.

I learned more from this race than I ever could have from a perfect one. About my body, my preparation, what I’d change and just how badly I want to see how far I can actually take this.

So this isn’t me closing the chapter on Backyard Ultras.

Quite the opposite. Arthur I hope I did you proud. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who supported, donated, shared and stood behind me throughout this. It meant more than you’ll know.

The pit crew I had thank you for taking your time to put your time into me and the event. We know what we’re doing and we’re coming back. ❤️

We had hundreds of and hundreds of people watch me on the tracker and hundreds of messages.

Unfinished business. The show continues ⏳

Corey, I am SO bloody proud of you. 🥹❤️

I’ve watched you put your heart, mind and body into this over the last few weeks, and seeing you actually do it has honestly made me so emotional.

134.0KM. 83.3 MILES. 20 LAPS. 20 HOURS. 🤯

I still can’t get my head around it!

This journey hasn’t been easy, especially with your leg injury, but every single day you’ve shown up, pushed yourself and somehow found another gear when I’m sure most people would have stopped.

This whole backyard ultra thing is absolutely crazy…

but then again, so are you 😂 and I genuinely wouldn’t have it any other way.

Watching you push yourself so far outside your comfort zone and achieve something this incredible makes me so unbelievably proud.

Forever and always proud of you. ❤️

I LOVE YOU FOREVER. LUUUUUU ❤️🏃🏼‍♂️ by @coreywilliams_
