Here at Oxyfit NZ, we are a community of like-minded ambitious people who are connected through fitness. When you get your blood flowing and your body moving you release endorphins which have the ability to combat stress and make you feel alive! We want to provide you with supportive activewear that motivates you to feel good and energised while looking and feeling great.

Here is a really simple, effective and efficient bodyweight workout that you can do almost anywhere, these exercises will get your heart rate pulsing. All you need is some space, a timer and your own body. If you have available equipment incorporate it into the exercise, but make sure to focus on your form first.

Why HIIT, High-Intensity Interval Training (elevating the heart rate rapidly to burn fat in short amounts of time) increases the body’s demand for oxygen during training, this increases the amount of oxygen ur body wants during ur recovery. This process is known as EPOC, Excess post-exercise oxygen, which is the aftereffect of the oxygen shortage created during your training. In result, it can burn more fat and calories than a regular workout can help you to burn calories all day long!

A factor to consider when doing workouts is your choice of clothing, all materials and fabrics have different purposes and benefits. Make sure to wear clothing that is breathable and light. Allowing your body to move freely without restrictions to avoid overheating and irritations. Secondly Support, without supportive clothing you can increase your chances of injury or strain, make sure to invest in fitness wear that fits your body correctly and supports you were needed.

Warming up and cooling down is essential and a technique that shouldn’t be forgotten. This helps to prevent muscles soreness and injuries, along with preparing the body for your workout. We recommend 15 seconds each of the following exercises to warm you up, throw on your favourite tunes and get into it!
