Meet Cayc

Cayc, 26

Cayc is one busy mother with 2 daughters, Shevvi (2) Coco-Rose (3Months), and a successful hairdressing business that she runs from home. She joined PARC 2 years ago when her first daughter was 4 months old. 

“On my first day, I just walked into any group exercise class that was on. It so happened to be a BodyPump class. I didn’t even know anything about the class or what to expect. It came as a bit of a shock when we had to set up weights. Ahhh I had never even touched weights before! Then I did a BodyStep class and fell in love. That’s the day I met Bec, the Group Exercise Leader, who made me feel really comfortable about being the new kid on the block. From there my obsession for fitness became something real. I then started challenging myself with BodyAttack and HIIT and have not looked back since. My body started changing and within 5 months I looked completely different! Everyday I’m excited to get to the gym. I love PARC and call it my second home. I’ve made so many new friends, all the instructors are amazing and the girls in the crèche are great too! PARC made me find happiness in exercising. My health and fitness goals are now focussed on more weight training. I’m so much more educated in weights and it’s not “scary” to me anymore. I like to change it up and do a variety of different things. I don’t aim to look like somebody else, I aim to be the best me I can be at this time of my life.”

Join us in going off social media for a day on 24 October. 

This Saturday, on 24 October, we are joining Unplug24, a 24-hour break from social media in solidarity with SmackTalk – an organisation founded by local Wayne Holdsworth to honour his son, Mac, and raise awareness around suicide prevention.

Unplug24 encourages us to step away from social media and reconnect offline to:
🔌 Protect mental health
🔌 Raise awareness to prevent suicide
🔌 Support vital education and awareness programs

Let’s join together and unplug from all social media for the day – at work and at home – to show our support for this important cause.

The month of October is Walktober! 🚶‍♀️

This is a great opportunity to build more movement into your day, especially coming out of the winter months, and work towards your 30-20-2! Here are five tips from our Health and Fitness Team, on how you can get more steps in this Walktober: 

🛗 Take the stairs - Skip the lift when you can. 
🚗 Park further away - Add a few hundred steps before you've even started your day. 
📞 Walk while you talk - Take phone calls or catch-ups on the move. 
🌯 Do a lap at lunchtime - Even 10 minutes counts. 
🖥️ Step on the spot - Take a minute, and get some steps in at your desk

As always, if you need any help or guidance in getting your 30-20-2, please don’t hesitate to speak with one of our friendly staff members, or visit our Digital Hub for some inspiration.
