Finally
making changes to my diet and way of living has opened up new doors for me. One
of the things that has changed is I have found a love for sporting gear and
outfits. And I thought what better place to find the newest and greatest
products then the Fitness and Health Expo. Not to mention I am sure I’ll pick
up some great health tips and products there.
For the
first time, the Australian Fitness & Health Expo, the largest fitness &
health event in the southern hemisphere, is coming to Melbourne and it will be one
of the biggest Expos staged in its twenty-year history – in other words, this
is a not-to-be-missed event on the 2014 calendar for those who love fitness.
And if you don’t love fitness and want to make a change to the way you live and
your lifestyle this is also the expo for you.
In
addition to the launch of the latest fitness equipment, fashion and classes,
this year will see the addition of a number of fitness challenges and
opportunities to participate along with new, high profile national and
international sporting competitions that will run live at the Expo.
Whether
you’re training for the next Spartan Race, thinking about a Paleo Diet, looking
for a new fitness class or training for a triathlon, marathon or major sporting
event, here are some of features at the 2014 Australian Fitness & Health
Expo that are sure to raise your heart rate:
See it.
All of
the major fitness and health brands attend the Expo to unveil their latest equipment and products. This is
where fitness lovers get to see new gear and classes before they hit the
shelves and the gym timetable (a heaven for fitness bloggers.) All the
well-known and respected brands will be on show, including Lorna Jane, Reebok,
Skins, Musashi, Garmin and Asics. Which
means my poor credit card is really going to get a beating and it will get me
into A LOT of trouble!

Try it.
If there
was ever a year to wear your runners and workout gear to the Expo, this is it.
There will be plenty of opportunities to work up a sweat and even compete, if you
wish. For the first time, Les Mills will be running free 45-minute group
fitness classes at the Les Mills Stage.
Participate in Body Pump, Spin, Combat and Attack classes plus their newest
class led by celebrity instructors. If you’re feeling like a little competition, you can try
qualifying for the Fit Bloke or Fit
Chick challenge held in The Arena, a purpose-built Crossfit competition
zone complete with stadium seating. There will also be a series of endurance tests taking place around the
Expo, including the Versa Climber Challenge, if you want to test your fitness
level and compete for great prizes.
Ok, after
taking about 50 million deep breaths I can also confirm that none other then
the one and only MICHELLE BRIDGES WILL be at this expo!!!! Just that in itself
is worth going to the expo. She is an idol and a lady I wished I had the
motivation and body of.
Live it.
The
vibe at this year’s Expo will be electric with a number of high profile
sporting competitions taking place live on the Expo floor across the three
days.
The
Australian Fitness & Health Expo will be held April 4-6 at Melbourne
Convention & Exhibition Centre. The expo is open from 9.30am – 5.30pm daily
with Friday open to only those who work within the fitness and health industry.
