Stage 4 Restrictions: Update to Services

As you know, Victoria entered a State of Disaster last night. Metropolitan Melbourne also moved to Stage 4 restrictions with stronger rules to limit the movement of people, and the spread of this virus. It’s an uncertain and challenging time, so now, more than ever, it’s important to feel connected, and do our best to stay active and focused on our health and wellbeing.

Throughout this unusual and unprecedented time, we wanted to remind you of the various health and fitness solutions that you can access through PARC, and provide an update on our services:

 

All Outdoor Personal Training to move to Virtual

Stage 4 restrictions place new, tighter restrictions on exercise and limits any organised sport. As a result, our face-to-face Outdoor Personal Training sessions will cease, and will be replaced by our Online Personal Training solution. For those of you booked in for an Outdoor PT session this week, your Personal Trainer will be in touch about how you can easily transition this workout from face-to-face to our Online Personal Training offering – that you can do safely from home! We are offering anyone who had an Outdoor PT session booked in the chance to try our Online PT for free this week! Your trainer will be in touch with next steps!

 

Online Personal Training

Workout from the safety of your home, whenever it suits you! Join our Online Personal Training, via Zoom. Offered at a special rate while PARC is closed, we have sessions all throughout the week, and you can elect to do it in a group, two-on-one or one-on-one.

To find the right session, trainer and group for you, please email healthandfitness@parcfrankston.com.au.

PARC Your Way – FREE

PARC Your Way is our online health and wellbeing platform, which includes a library of over 300 recorded workouts and classes, plus a full weekly timetable of live-streamed classes – all led by the PARC instructors and personal trainers you know and love! This week we will be busy adjusting to the new restrictions so we ask that you be patient while we equip our trainers to be able to live stream and record from their homes. We will also scale back the LIVE timetable, due to the current situation, but with over 300 videos already in the library, we are sure there is a workout for everyone on PARC Your Way!

Access to PARC is completely free and open to PARC and non-PARC members. Give it a go today!

PARC Your Way Active Kids – FREE

Do you have young children at home? Are you home schooling? Or know someone who is?

At PARC Your Way we want to keep children active during lockdown, and help families who are home schooling, so we are adding 3 classes each week, just for kids!

We will be keeping the sessions simple and easy to follow, aiming at the 5 – 12 year old age group, with each class running for 20 minutes to cater to the shorter attention span of our children! Sessions will include everything from basic movement patterns, agility, circuits, meditation, balance, Pilates, yoga, games and challenges!

Note – you will need to set up a free account in order to join the class.

We hope both you and your kids enjoy!

Have you heard of Incidental Exercise? 🧹🚶‍♀️

Incidental exercise is physical activity that occurs naturally as part of your daily routine! It’s the small bursts of activity you accumulate throughout the day, such as carrying in the groceries, or playing with the kids, that helps you achieve your 30-20-2. 

Some examples of Incidental Exercise are: 
- Doing housework like vacuuming, mopping, or gardening
- Walking up stairs instead of taking elevator or escalator 
- Parking further away from your destination to get your steps up
- Walking during lunch breaks, or having a standing meeting

Remember, all movement counts! 🌟

For more information about 30-20-2, or helpful resources and workouts to get you moving, head to our Digital Hub.
How cute it this?! 🦄

Our Cafe team always know how to add a little magic into your day! ✨
