The answer is NO! This program has been designed to be progressive, body friendly and self paced, so irrespective of what level of fitness or mobility you are at, you can do it at your own pace and rest as much as you need to without affecting anyone else's session..cool!
The answer is NO!
All our exercises are quite unique and involve gross body movements as opposed to isolated or stationary gym based exercises.
Typically you will be using all the key, large muscle groups, but in ways you have never imagined!
It is fair to say we have some very cool and innovative exercises that even the most seasoned exercise enthusiast would not have done before. Aww Yeaahh...Bring on the new stuff!!
Heavy Haulers Australia provides a potent energy burning program, which promotes FAT loss. Weight loss is an outcome most people desire and is most peoples measure of success from an exercise program, but the truth is, it is FAT loss that contributes to a better looking and healthier body.
Ask yourself this question - if you are the same weight but are carrying 20% less body fat, are 2 clothes sizes smaller and are the healthiest you've been, does weight matter?. The answer is No siree!
Average body fat reductions from each program is anywhere between 10 and 15%. This % result is the difference between pre and post sum of 4 site skin fold assessment which determines how much body fat you carry under your skin...NICE!
All programs in the Heavy Haulers Aust. series have been designed to be body friendly, and also self paced, so you can work within your own limitations and at your own pace, however, should you feel that something isn't feeling right or if you are nervous to commit to an exercise, we have the capacity and are more than happy to modify the exercise so you can train hard and train strong, without risk of injury. GREAT!
All programs in the hauler series are body friendly and involve little or no impact of joints, especially those of the hips, knees and ankles so, YES you can train in any of our programs without risk of inflammation in the joints, however if an exercise doesn't feel right then we can always modify it for you or give you an alternative that your body likes..Aww Yeaaah!
Each exercise is self paced where the aim is to beat your previous distance, time or number of repetitions set from your last workout (depending on the program you are doing).
You can run and will want to run, in order to aim to beat your previous effort, but the greatest distance you will run is 20m at a time, and you will generally be dragging something as a form of resistance, which significantly reduces impact on the body and increases the training effect
In short, NO there is no running unless you want it!
We are not a boot camp. You set the pace of each and every round every session. We are there for support, guidance in setting targets to aim for, and we help you through it.
The aim of our trainers is to build you up, not break you down. We don't yell at you, in fact we try and get you motivated so you are empowered to do it yourself!
Tyre's represent resistance, and exercising with resistance helps to enable the body to develop over time. The way we design our programs helps fast track this development so you get results a lot faster and safer than what you may do so using other forms of exercise.
It's not Tyre training that make our programs work, it's the way we use them!
We have 4 Mixed martial arts based programs, all of which involve basic yet effective and different striking movements coupled with essential core work.
What makes these programs different is the measurability aspect. It is very difficult to know if you are improving or not in a normal boxing style environment as there are too many factors that may affect your performance, with swinging bags and trainers holding pads being two of the greatest factors.
Standardising the time frame, training equipment and each combination means that you can not only try and beat you previous effort, but you have a way of knowing if you are improving.
Progression in training is what develops fitness, and gets you results. All of our programs have this component factored in them. Yes they do!
All programs in the range we have to offer provide resistance as this is the key component of any well constructed program that will help get great results FAST!, however, we do have a selection of loads to choose from and generally guys use the heavier loads and females use lighter loads, SO if you are a chick and have a tendency to get muscular quick, and don't want to, then go for the lighter tyres in week 1 and aim for a greater distance instead of greater resistance (that rhymes!)
The Guys will be jealous of you!
In exceptional circumstances, participants will have the option to make up missed sessions during the current program. Unfortunately these sessions are NOT redeemable in future programs. Make-up classes are also dependent on spaces being available and this must be confirmed with one of the Trainers from your training location well in advance to ensure there is room and you do not miss out!
If you know you will be traveling and will miss out on more than one session, and you know in advance that you will not be able to make up your missed sessions, feel free to chat to the head trainer at your venue and you may be able to sign up for the ones that you can do.
