Coconut Almond Grain Free Porridge

Place all ingredients in a saucepan and gently heat while stirring. You can add your choice of flavourings and natural sweeteners eg cinnamon, coconut sugar, maple syrup.

The Benefits Of Group Training

Generally at this time of year, you get a massive influx of new people wanting to train. This is fantastic, as who doesn’t want to train in the lovely weather that Australia has to offer in Spring?!?! For those of you that are still struggling though, I want you to pay extra special attention to what I have to say next.

Group training in an outdoors environment is the best way to get your life back on track. If it was never on track, then this is by all means the place where you want to start! Why Group Training you ask? Well, generally speaking, group training has the highest retention rates out of all training methods. Why? Because people don’t only use it as an opportunity to train, but to socialise with like-minded people.

  1. Motivation – Catchy music, fast- paced moves and an instructor with a seemingly endless amount of energy. Having other people exercising alongside you can also give you the boost you need to keep moving.
  2. Accountability – Just like PT, group training sessions hold you accountable for turning up and putting 100% effort into your workout.
  3. Fun – Exposure to a fun and social environment is why many people prefer group training to a lone gym session.

Think about it though, you get the benefits of training as well as catching up with friends or even family….what’s not to like about it?! Message us now to book in a group session with RIM!
