If your favorite class fills up before you even have your morning coffee, don't panic. You can now tap “Join Waitlist” right in the app.
If a spot opens up, the app will instantly notify you—no speed-typing required, no desperate frantic refreshing. Just make sure you have your push notifications enabled - see picture for instructions.

📣📣EKKA Public Holiday Wednesday 🎡😴
To everyone who would normally battle with the decision of whether to hit the gym on people's day or hit snooze button - we've made the decision easy for you - we are CLOSED, so hit that snooze button.
Let’s be honest—it’s the EKKA public holiday.
So the official workout should look something like this:
Heavy Lifting: Pulling the extra blanket up over your shoulders.
Core Stability: Balance testing while eating a Strawberry Sundae in bed.
Grip Strength: Holding a hot cup of coffee until it’s safe to go back to sleep.
Cardio: Walking to the fridge to check if new snacks magically appeared.
Consider sleeping in as extreme active recovery. You’re simply giving your muscles the rest they need so you can tackle your next session with 100% effort (or at least 85%).
Enjoy the sleep-in, dodge the crowd, eat a dagwood dog if the mood strikes, and we’ll see you back on Thursday at 6am rested, recharged, and ready to move with Miller!
Happy Ekka Day! Rest up, legends. 🍓🍦

🏆 June Award Winner: Laura! 🏆
Let’s give a big, warm round of applause to our June award winner, Laura! 🎉💪
Laura joined The Shed five months ago during a deeply personal chapter. After suffering a heart-breaking miscarriage at the start of the year, getting motivated to move again felt like a mountain to climb. But she stepped through our doors, and bit by bit, used this space to heal, rebuild her strength, and reclaim her health. Today, she is feeling stronger, healthier, and fully equipped to keep up with her busy 2-year-old son!
Her goals for Vision 2026 & Beyond are pure gold:
🥇 Finally beating her husband in an arm wrestle 💪
🏃♀️ Crossing the finish line ahead of her toddler in a 20m sprint!
While she claims she’s still deciding on her ultimate favourite exercise, Laura is fan of mobility—and of course, that unbeatable post-workout endorphin rush!
Her refuel ritual? A good coffee, followed by some solid protein (eggs or a shake) to power through the rest of her day. ☕🍳
Outside of The Shed, Laura keeps busy wrangling her little boy, catching up with friends, camping, heading to the beach, and spending time at church on weekends. 🏕️☀️
Laura, your resilience, vulnerability, and positive energy light up the gym floor. You are a true testament to the strength inside our community, and we are so proud to walk (and train!) alongside you.
Show Laura some love in the comments below! 👇❤️
Big love & hugs
The Shed Team ❤️

🚀Looking for people who want to get muddy, bubbly, and slightly out of breath. 🫧💩
Sam A. is putting together a 10-person team for the 5K Foam Fest on Sunday, February 7th, 2027!
It’s a 5K obstacle course that swaps the regular "running for your life" vibe for a "giant festival party with mountains of foam" vibe. Beginners, walkers, and professional couch potatoes are all welcome.
Team entry is 10. Let’s get a team together, wear matching ridiculous outfits, and question our life choices in the mud.

🏆 May Award Winner: Pete! 🏆
Let’s hear it for our May award winner, Pete! 🎉💪
Pete walked into The Shed 18 months ago with a very clear mission. Noticing that aging was starting to chip away at his strength, he made a definitive choice: he wanted proper muscles so his body had no choice but to be strong. What a mindset! 🔥
Fast forward to today, and Pete is doing exactly what he set out to do. He absolutely smashed it in May, locking in three massive PBs! He loves throwing around the heavy barbells and dumbbells, and his dedication to the grind is paying off big time.
Looking ahead his ultimate goal, us to feel just as strong, capable, and powerful as he does right now when he hits 50. With the work ethic he brings to the floor, there is absolutely no doubt he's going to crush it. 🏋️♂️
Pete’s refuel game is also 10/10 and depends entirely on the session:
☀️ Morning Sesh: Coffee, granola, fruit, yoghurt, and peanut butter.
🌙 Evening Sesh: A strong beer and a curry. (Balance is key, right? 🍺🍛)
When he’s not building an unbreakable armor of muscle at The Shed, Pete stays busy hiking, travelling, and mastering his ultimate secret identity: Dadding. 🥾✈️👨👦
Pete, your consistency, focus, and drive to outwork aging are incredibly inspiring to everyone around you. Thank you for being such a powerhouse in our community!

Big love

🏆Let’s give a massive shout-out to the incredible Carmel, our April award winner! 🎉💪
Before joining us, Carmel had never been in a gym. But thanks to a little bit of "persuasive nagging" from Glenn, she walked through our doors in November 2024—and she hasn’t looked back since!
Carmel is an absolute superstar of our SeniorFIT community, and watching her level up has been nothing short of inspiring. When she first started, movements like Landmine Deadlifts, Landmine Single-arm Presses, Front Squats, and Back Squats weren't even in her vocabulary (and let’s be honest, she still has a healthy love-hate relationship with squats depending on the day! 😜).
But what makes Carmel truly stand out is her focus on form and consistency. Even when she's trying to remember the massive variety of exercises we throw her way, she shows up, gives her best, and gets it done.
The result? She’s feeling the difference every single day with:
✨ Less pain
✨ Way more stamina
✨ Feeling overall so much better
✨️ And looking fit & fabulous!
When she’s not crushing it at The Shed, Carmel trades the barbells for a completely different set of skills—spending her time knitting, reading, cooking, and volunteering. And after a particularly massive workout? You'll find her refuelling with a well-deserved plate of eggs, mushrooms, and bacon. 🥓🍳
Carmel, your commitment to long-term improvement and your fantastic attitude are exactly what The Shed is all about. We are so proud of your journey and so lucky to have you in our community!
Drop some love in the comments below to congratulate Carmel! 👇
Big love
The Shed Team ❤️
