We live and breathe fitness—but that doesn’t mean staying consistent is always easy. Like many of our customers, we juggle full-time work, families, injuries, busy schedules, and yes… even the occasional motivation slump.

Here’s how our Flex team gets the job done and stays on track—through winter mornings, holiday seasons, and those weeks when the couch looks extra inviting.

 


 


"My family is my biggest source of motivation when it comes to training for strongman."

For Kieren, every rep and every early start is fuelled by more than personal ambition—it's about making his family proud. Their support helps him stay consistent, especially on the tough days. His training isn’t random; it’s built on structure, discipline, and a clear schedule that keeps him moving toward his goals. And when the goal is representing Australia on the international stage, there’s no room for half-effort.

- Kieren, Sales Consultant

 

💡 Your Takeaway: Tap into your “why.” Whether it’s family, self-belief, or chasing a big goal—when you know what drives you, discipline becomes easier.

 

Our Advice: Set the structure, stick to the plan, and stay close to the people who lift you up. At Flex, we believe progress is personal—but support makes it powerful.

 


 

 

"Ensuring my children are exposed to healthy habits early on is a big motivator for me."

For Paige, training isn’t just about physical health—it’s about setting a standard her kids can see. Between work, parenting, and life’s daily chaos, it’s easy to let exercise fall off the list. That’s why she plans her week ahead of time, finding moments—big or small—to prioritise movement. Sometimes that means walking instead of driving, or squeezing in a workout with her kids nearby, quietly watching their role model in action.

- Paige, Admin Assistant

 

💡 Your Takeaway: You don’t need perfect conditions—you need intention. When your “why” is bigger than just you, consistency follows.

 

Our Advice: There’s power in showing up, especially when others are watching. At Flex, we know healthy habits start at home—and we’re here to support your journey, whatever that looks like.

 


 


 

"Sometimes I don’t always have the motivation to workout, but I stay disciplined and plan my workouts ahead of time."

Jake’s not chasing motivation—he’s built a routine that works, even on low-energy days. By planning his workouts in advance, there’s no time wasted figuring out what to do. It’s in the schedule, it’s structured, and it gets done. The key? Keep it simple, stay consistent, and don’t overthink it—especially when life gets busy.

- Jake, Marketing Assistant

 

💡 Your Takeaway: Don’t rely on motivation. Build a plan, set the routine, and trust the process. Discipline will carry you on the days motivation won’t.

 

Our Advice: You won’t always feel like training—and that’s normal. At Flex, we believe planning beats willpower every time. Prep, show up, and let consistency do the heavy lifting.

 


 

 

"Every session is a thank-you to my future self—for showing up now and putting in the work."

After a major cancer scare forced Jay to step away from the combat sports he’d dedicated his life to, everything shifted. It became clear that training needed a new purpose—not just performance, but longevity. With 40 on the horizon, he’s now focused on building a body that’ll serve him well into the next 40 years. Guided by Kieren, his twice-daily sessions combine Strongman, mobility, and endurance—not for competition, but for life.

- Jay, General Manager - Sales

 

💡 Your Takeaway: Training isn’t just about how strong you are today—it’s about what your body can do for you tomorrow, next year, and decades from now.

 

Our Advice: Your goals can evolve—and so can your approach. At Flex, we support training that’s sustainable, intentional, and built to last.

 


 


"Having my gym equipment at home means it’s easier to train—no travel time, no packing a bag, no small talk. I can just walk in and do my thing."

For Gavin, convenience is king. Training at home removes all the friction—no commute, no need to plan outfits or navigate busy gyms. It’s just him, his equipment, and the next session. That simplicity makes consistency easier and helps him stay focused without distractions.

- Gavin, Commercial Sales and Inventory Coordinator 

 

💡 Your Takeaway: If removing barriers helps you stay consistent, do it. Create a space, system, or setup that supports your flow.

 

Our Advice: Whether it’s a garage setup, a spare room transformation, or just a few key pieces of gear—training at home is about freedom, focus, and making fitness fit your lifestyle. Check out our blog about Setting Up a Home Gym in a Small Area for more information.

 


 


"Going to the gym with my friends helps me stay motivated. I also like to set fitness goals so I know what I’m working towards."

For Rhys, training is better with good company and clear direction. Having friends by his side keeps the energy high—and setting specific goals gives each session meaning. With something to aim for, it’s easier to stay focused, track progress, and celebrate the wins along the way.

- Rhys, Sales Consultant

 

💡 Your Takeaway: Set the target, bring your crew, and stay consistent. Goals give purpose to your grind—and progress feels even better when it’s shared.

 

Our Advice: Community and clarity are a powerful combo. At Flex, we believe in lifting each other up and locking in goals that keep you moving forward.
