August is the height of summer, a time for holidays, longer days and a slightly slower pace.
This month at Odyssey, our theme is Relaxation & Recharge. Whether you’re heading away or enjoying a staycation closer to home, August is about making time to pause, recover and look after yourself.
Wellness isn’t always about pushing harder. Recovery is an important part of fitness too.
From restorative classes and spa experiences to nutrition, relaxation and our August fitness challenge, there are plenty of ways to recharge at Odyssey this month.
💪 August Abdominal Plank Challenge
How long can you hold your plank?
Put your core strength to the test throughout August and see if you can climb to the top of our leader board.
Whether you’re chasing a personal best or trying to beat one of the gym team, every second counts.
Challenge yourself. Push your limits. Discover just how strong your core really is.
We’ll also be encouraging good form with broomsticks and timing each attempt.
