Get Active for Less: The Changes Proposed to Make Fitness More Affordable in Australia
With the cost of living biting hard, getting active can feel like the last thing you can afford. But a bold new proposal from Australia's peak fitness body could be about to change that — with $500 family vouchers for gyms and studios, tax-free gym perks through your employer, and even the ability to get a referral to a personal trainer from your GP. Here's what's on the table in the 2026 Federal Budget — and why it matters for every Australian trying to get moving.
Can an E-Bike Be the Key to Your Fitness Journey?
If you’ve ever felt that traditional cycling was too demanding or that injuries were holding you back from staying active, you aren’t alone. A recent qualitative study on the NZ HIKO e-bike programme highlights how electric bikes are acting as a powerful "circuit breaker" for inactivity. By reducing the physical strain on joints and making hills manageable, e-bikes are helping people manage chronic conditions like Type 2 diabetes and arthritis while providing a significant boost to mental wellbeing. Discover how this "power-assisted" movement is making fitness more inclusive, social, and achievable for Australians of all fitness levels.
Stronger Together: Why Social Connection is the Secret Ingredient to Staying Active
New research reveals that for older adults, physical health and social circles are two sides of the same coin—offering a powerful strategy to fight loneliness while staying fit. Recent findings suggest that treating strong social networks and physical activity as "inextricably linked" can dramatically improve well-being, yet nearly 57% of Australians over 65 still struggle to meet daily activity guidelines. From the motivating power of a local walking group to the "social glue" of community events, discover why finding your community is the most effective medicine for a healthier, more connected lifestyle.

Thinking of playing socially or getting training/coaching?
Social fitness groups and classes have become increasingly popular in recent years as a way for people to stay active and meet like-minded individuals. These groups and classes provide a supportive and motivating environment for people to exercise and improve their physical fitness.
One of the main benefits of social fitness groups and classes is the accountability and motivation that they provide. When people join a group or class, they are more likely to stick to their fitness goals because they have a group of people who are counting on them to show up. Additionally, the group environment can be very motivating, as people tend to push themselves harder when they are exercising with others.
Another benefit of social fitness groups and classes is the sense of community that they create. Often, people form lasting friendships through their participation in these groups, which can make exercise more enjoyable and less of a chore. Furthermore, for people who are new to an area, a social fitness group can be a great way to meet new people and find a sense of belonging.
Lastly, social fitness groups and classes are also beneficial because they provide a variety of different types of activities and workouts. Classes such as yoga, Pilates, kickboxing, and dance are just a few examples of the many types of workouts that people can participate in. This means that there is something for everyone, regardless of their fitness level or interests, and that people can mix things up and try different types of exercises to keep things interesting and prevent boredom.
Overall, social fitness groups and classes can be a great way to improve fitness and overall health, while also providing an opportunity to meet new people and build a sense of community. With variety in activities, accountability and motivation and a supportive environment, many people find it as a great way to stick to a fitness routine, especially compared to working out alone.
