Lockdown extended, let's make the most of it.

Happy Thursday you wonderful people,

Aaaaaaand we're back in lockdown for an extra week.

Although this was not the news we were all hoping for, there is little utility in deliberating on what we are unable to do. So we shift our focus to that which is within our control over the next 7 days.

To our VGT & VAD Athletes, we will continue to provide you with sessions to do at home. This is an opportunity to lean into your training or lean into some TLC. Take a moment to assess how you're feeling, and what it is you might need right now.

To everyone, this is an opportunity to tip into your health and wellbeing. To carve out the space to look after the basics that tend to fall by the wayside when life is ticking over at 100km/hr.

Tick the boxes. Enjoy the little wins. The simple things will help you get through the next week. ?

??Move daily

??Hydrate

??Set your routines

??Adhere to your bedtime?

??Stay connected

??Eat good food

??Be kind to yourselves

??Breathe

?? Support local business

& please reach out if you need anything. We got this, together.


To help you all navigate the next week of lockdown before we return to (hopefully) business as usual. We have made some resources available for you all. Hit the links below to get amongst the good stuff.

We all know the drill. We've done this before.

Look after your mates, keep checking in with one another, get outside for fresh air when you can, hydrate, move, eat well, smile, don't be tough on yourself and always choose kindness.

If you need anything, you know where to find us.

Lachie & team Virtus

P.S Here's a photo of Tyler chucking the double thumbs up because that's the vibe we all need right now.

At Virtus Performance, everything we do, from our coaching to our programming, is built on three key foundations: Enjoyment, Consistency, and Progress. Combined with built-in feedback loops, these principles ensure constant evolution, athlete buy-in, and results that last. Humans are complex, adaptive systems, always changing and responding to our environment. At the same time, we are also simple beings. We repeat the things we enjoy and the things that help us improve. That is why these three factors sit at the heart of Virtus coaching. 1. Enjoyment: Training You Actually Want to Do If training feels like punishment, you will eventually stop. Willpower can only carry you so far. That is why at Virtus, we design world-class strength and conditioning programs that are challenging, but also fun, rewarding, and engaging. Enjoyment is fuelled by our community. You will connect with others, laugh, and celebrate wins along the way. Training becomes more than just another task. It becomes one of the best parts of your week. 2. Consistency: The Secret to Real Change The people who achieve their goals are not always the most talented. They are the ones who keep showing up. Consistency is the real secret sauce in strength and conditioning. At Virtus, we do not just coach. We educate. You will learn why the work matters, how to fit training into a busy life, and how to build habits that stick. Through accountability and support, we help you keep turning up week after week, so results compound over time. 3. Progress: Becoming More Capable Progress fuels motivation. When you can see and feel change, you want to keep going. Whether it is lifting heavier, moving better, running faster, or simply feeling stronger and more capable in your own skin, progress is what drives long-term commitment. That is why our coaching emphasises performance. With structured programs, regular testing weeks, and goal reviews, we ensure you are not just training. You are evolving. At Virtus, we believe in continual improvement. Every program includes feedback loops: testing, reflection, and goal setting that ensure your training adapts as you do. This process creates genuine athlete buy-in because you see and feel the results of your work. Our philosophy is simple. Training should help you do more of the things you love, in a stronger and more capable way. By combining Enjoyment, Consistency, and Progress with our pillars of Community, Education, and Performance, Virtus coaching sets the foundation for long-term success. That is Virtus. That is Better Every Day. Ready to dive in and experience Virtus?

To be a self transforming individual, that being someone who can observe without judgement. Detach from the result, and accept that the truth is more important than being right.

Whatever you have or don?t have, whatever goals you achieve or don?t achieve, whichever frustrations or excitements you are currently experiencing in your life, all of it, its your fault. Whoever you are, its your fault.
