Michael, the organiser behind The Exercise Room, a facility at G05/100 Parnell Road in Auckland, wants to share some updates with the sports community. Michael has always prioritised holistic health and well-being for the members, aiming to enhance all facets of life, from home and work to personal relationships and sports performance.
Recognised as the Best in Auckland in 2021 and among the top six gyms in 2020, The Exercise Room prides itself on its exceptional trainers. These trainers are dedicated to helping individuals overcome challenges and make positive changes, fostering an encouraging and motivated fitness community.
Michael’s team offers various membership options, whether someone seeks a short-term goal or a long-term fitness journey. The Exercise Room provides various programmes and services to meet each member's specific needs and keeps everyone informed through email newsletters, always respecting privacy.
An exciting initiative from Michael and the team is the Kiwi Running Hero programme. This running club offers a supportive community for individuals aiming to achieve personal goals through running. Starting on January 16th, 2024, the club will meet every Tuesday night in Auckland's Britomart for weekly run/walk events, open to those passionate about promoting healthier lives.
Participants benefit from dedicated coaching support and a Facebook group offering guidance and tips. The programme offers various participation options, including weekly, monthly, and annual passes, with a chance to win a trip to Croatia and Italy for the Dubrovnik Half Marathon in April 2025, valued at $12,000. Members also enjoy perks like complimentary pizza or Bar Non Solo freebies after each run, monthly ASICS NZ apparel spot prizes, free gym passes, and a 10% discount on Bar Non Solo bills.
Michael is also committed to giving back, donating 10% of all Kiwi Running Hero entry fees to The Women's Suffrage, a chosen charity. The programme focuses on educational journeys around heart rate-based running and walking with a scientific approach, catering to beginners, intermediates, and advanced participants.
In essence, The Exercise Room, led by Michael, offers more than just a gym. It is a place where holistic lifestyle improvements are prioritised, making it an ideal venue for individuals to achieve their fitness goals and overall well-being.
