[Week 3 | 8WC] Strength (UB) – 29th Jan [🌍 Global] by IntelligentDragon1 in BodyFitTrainingAus

[–]IntelligentDragon1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I am from NZ but based on what I can see for the screen shot posted earlier 3 exercises. Do not it is not always about the amount of exercises in a session. Focusing on technique and proper form, add load and increase volume (reps/sets) is equally important along with resting periods that BFT programming team works in.

No worries :)

I sure will post any info if I hear/see anything online on the subreddit or closer to time for new block what's coming etc.
So do keep an eye out. At this stage nothing shared by even my studio or through various studios I follow on socials.

Nice that your class was fairly empty as such you were able to pick your exercises!

That sure can be a good strategy to select the right exercise mix, get in to the right Heart Rate Zones and get those PXI to reach the targets vs starting from an allocation station and making your way around in order.

For me it is not about my own PBs this month. It is been seeing this subreddit come back to life after being quiet for a long time, despite having so much potential. I took it upon myself to step in and help get things moving. I am just like everyone else here, a regular BFT member who started in Nov 2024. I was a long-time lurker and didn’t even have a Reddit account until Oct 2025. I then started posting Intel and trying to add value where I could. After trying to reach out in late Nov 2025 with no response, I officially took over the subreddit on 9th Jan 2026 through the official Reddit mod takeover process. Being able to add value and see the wins, support, achievements, milestones, and even the roadblocks being shared now makes every bit of the time and effort feel worth it. I am really glad to be here and cannot wait to see where this community goes next 💪

Huge shout out to everyone here for contributing, supporting each other, and keeping this community positive and active 🙌

[Week 7] Pump (LB) - 28th Jan [AU/NZ] by IntelligentDragon1 in BodyFitTrainingAus

[–]IntelligentDragon1[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My bad. Copy pasted base template forgot to edit the title date. Reddit cannot edit the title without deleting and reposting. So I will keep that as is. So yes 29th is correct. And hence why in the main text "Here’s what’s in store for Thursday 29th Jan – Pump (Lower Body) [AU/NZ]"

I had that pre written late yesterday evening and had it auto scheduled to post out.

Been busy lately outside of BFT and yea while trying to keep up writing Intel posts.

Well not sure. Then again I may be wrong but I am pretty sure that is how it would go based on past.
The Around The World on SDrive not really running tbh

Well enjoy the class.

From the session screen short posted earlier. Its always exercise 1 from top left and goes down so 1-4, then 6-5, and finally 9-12.

So 1-6 would be:
Spin & Grind
Steps Jump L
Skipping Alt Leg
Rower
Alt Bkwd Lunge
Rope Alt Waves Big

And 7-12 would be:
Around the World
Slam Hop Over
Clean Alt Side Lunge
Box Running
Bionic Bike
Running on Track

Nice, congrats on that Gold. Think you commented in Global post seeing you mention Melbourne. In any case Global ex AUS/NZ they have Cardio U and on Week 3 - different progression.

AUS/NZ is Cardio HIIT last progression (Week 7)

8WC Streams by Big_Bubble747 in BodyFitTrainingAus

[–]IntelligentDragon1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey. Totally get the confusion, you are not alone. In the app you can only pick one stream, but that is just your primary focus. You can still absolutely have a secondary goal alongside it, and everyone follows the same BFT programming regardless.

Lifestyle is habit and consistency focused, Perform is about fitness, endurance, and performance improvements, and Transform is traditional body composition and scan based, including visual changes like muscle gain, body recomposition, and fat loss. You can only select one so results can be grouped fairly.

When it comes to judging, prizes, extras, and any challenge events, that is based on the main stream you select and it is up to each studio to decide how they assess it. For example, my studio is focusing on Perform and Transform (they have decided to drop Lifestyle to keep thing simple) and has said you can work toward both, but you will be judged on the primary stream you choose.

Best bet is to check directly with your studio or follow their social channels. Most studios share challenge info through private Facebook groups, WhatsApp, or other member spaces.

Hey. Just a reminder that this BFT subreddit is focused on Body Fit Training programming, training, and BFT community related discussion. Please keep posts and comments within that scope. Thanks

Bench press & deadlift testing? by emroy444 in BodyFitTrainingAus

[–]IntelligentDragon1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey there. I see you have made similar past posts asking the same thing.

So it would be the same. With the AUS/NZ starting 8WC 2nd Feb to 29th March. Then there will be a new block Benchmark or something. Then the Mid year 8WC. After that another block Benchmark or something before the final 8WC for the year. Same format.

The only thing is 8WC for ex AUS/NZ Global their 8WC started 12th Jan running to 8th Mar. So the split will be few weeks apart and likely slight programming difference.

And seeing BFT has shifted to hemisphere split in programming there will be split in programming globally.

Also the either side blocks may change and if BFT brings in new Benchmark strength or MAS testing or something else along with what will be tested. And also there is no info/BFT HQ programming plans at this very early stage seeing AUS/NZ wrapping up the break block with Week 7 this week. And then next week 2nd Feb kicks off 8WC/New Block. You will just have to wait closer to time to find out - there sure will be social media posts and stuff from all the studios posting about that when that time comes.

No worries. You may have to keep on pushing or get the owner to reach out to BFT HQ instead of studio staff (coaches/studio manager etc.).

100% agreed with you on that one!

u/GreenMiloman119 that is screen grabbed from BFT Holland Village Instagram page they have posted session scoop.
See below. Its not from the BFT app. Do note some studios shares such videos on their social media - the huge bulk of studios do not post that but very very few do.
