    Ever wondered about the impact of class size on your fitness journey? 

     

    Time for some quick math

     

    In a 45-minute group fitness session, if you’re in a class with 30 people, you get just 1.5 minutes of personalised attention from your coach

     

    But in a class of 10? That number TRIPLES to 4.5 minutes 🕓

     

    At Blinco Built, we believe that quality should never be compromised for quantity

     

    That’s why we specialise in small group training

    And not massive group training

     

    Our decision isn’t just about maths – it’s about creating an environment where each member feels seen, heard, and valued (as you might have seen in our reviews) 

     

    It’s about building a tight-knit community where everyone knows your name, your goals, and your journey 🤝💪

     

    With smaller groups, our coaches can provide higher quality, more individualised attention during each session

     

    We can correct form, offer modifications, and encourage you at a level that simply isn’t possible in a larger group

    There’s also great accountability and motivation 

     

    The result? You get the most from each workout, and you’re less likely to get injured

     

    But it doesn’t stop there 

     

    This individualised attention extends beyond the gym floor

     

    With our 1-on-1 goal review sessions, we’re committed to making your fitness journey a personalised experience

     

    Because at the end of the day, your fitness journey isn’t about fitting into a one-size-fits-all model

     

    It’s about finding the perfect fit for YOU 🌟

     

    Think small for big results. That’s the Blinco Built way

  • Principles to getting stronger

    Looking to get stronger? Don’t get confused by all the information out there, you really just need to do 3 things, consistently, and you’ll get strong fast!

     

    1. Overload – you need to overload your muscles, if you are doing a weight that’s difficult but you could move that weight 40 times without a break, it’s probably not hard enough. Realistically anything you could lift more than 20 times without a break probably won’t make you that much stronger (although it could have other benefits – that’s a different conversation) 

     

    1. Progression – the difficulty needs to increase over time, how you do that, more weight, reps, sets, less rest, is up to you and can be fun to try different things, as long as it is getting more difficult over time

     

    1. Recovery – in order to get stronger from exercise the muscles need to recover. Once again there are many ways to do this, days off, protein intake, nutrients, low intensity movement. It doesn’t matter how you help this process, just that if you want your muscles to improve they need time to repair

     

    If you hit these 3 principles, technically you could be doing the same exercises week after week and just change reps, sets, weight, rest, tempo and progress for years, and probably get stronger than you would ever have use for

     

    Of course, that might get boring, following a program that changes up is more fun and engaging and will help with consistency
