Mackay and Whitsunday Life

How’s This!

It’s halfway through February, and I reckon I’m the fittest I’ve ever been in my life, all thanks to my mates.

This month 4MK are all over Feb-Fit as usual. It’s a month of moving, eating right and becoming a better you than the month before. That involves eating better food, moving more with some extra activities, like what I do with Steve at City Fitness.

Plus, it’s also a month of keeping track of what you’re doing as well as your mates, thanks to Intersport. Sure I’m giving away some cool prizes this month just for being part of it, but also we are changing people’s lives and making them live longer.

I’ll give you an example of what I’ve been doing lately. Well, if I’m correct, I did start this latest exercise stuff back in October but who’s counting right!

Every Saturday I head off to the gym and do one of those hour long exercise sessions that does a whole bunch of movements. You know the old lift kettle bells, box jumps, treadmill runs and a car flips. Just the usual stuff we do. Yes and I did say car flips. Actually when we did it for the first time it wasn’t part of the routine, someone actually parked their car too close to the wall, so, all of us got under the metal guards and flipped it.

I wouldn’t recommend it for a workout. They are heavy, plus the insurance company is still asking questions to this day, some 18 months later. If anyone asks, I wasn’t there.

The other things I’ve been doing are a few walks along the beach near Illawong and also some time when I drive out to Bucasia with my cut lunch. I take a cut lunch with me as the length of time it takes to drive out there, I might as well smash a few egg and lettuce sandwiches to pass the time.

I guess with all the walking and gym workouts I’m doing, I will be the fittest person around Mackay come March. If not, I’ll be laid up in Ward B at the Mater having surgery to repair something that didn’t do what it was meant to.

I’ll let you know how I go.

If you’d like to find out more about Feb-Fit give me a shout at 4MK. I’ll be the bloke in fluro leggings and sweat running down my face.

You can join Rob Kidd from 5am weekday mornings on 4MK 1026 AM in Mackay and Proserpine, 91.5FM in Airlie Beach or just ask your smart speaker to play 4MK on iHeartRadio!
