Brendan Smythe: May 17 - Member of the Month

Congratulation to Brendan Smythe our May 17 Member of the Month.


Brendan completes Outdoor Group Fitness Classes with Key to Life.


What is your favourite Key To Life Training session and why?

My Monday 6:30pm Boxing sessions are the best because you get a great total body workout and get to hang out with some great like minded people.


If you use any Key To Life recipes, What is your favourite?

I really enjoy the Spicy Potato Salad but there are a lot of other awesome KTL recipes you should try.


What is your biggest motivation?

My health, my wife and my children are my biggest motivations as they make me achieve high and work hard for what I want each day.


What is your biggest accomplishment you have achieved during your time with us at Key To Life?

My biggest accomplishment is sticking with at least 2 sessions per week for 6 months and I recently achieved this with the help of the KTL trainers and members.


What advice would you give somebody just starting at Key To Life?

Enjoy it, listen to the trainers and set yourself short, medium and long term goals for ultimate success.

Breathing for Calm: Simple Techniques to Reduce Stress
By Key to Life Health and Fitness • September 1, 2026
Breathing is a built‑in stress‑management system that can be accessed anytime, anywhere. When life becomes busy or overwhelming, breathing patterns often shift without us noticing—becoming shallow, fast, or irregular. This signals the body to stay alert, keeping the nervous system in a heightened state.
Rediscovering Movement: Exercise That Feels Good, Not Punishing
By Key to Life Health and Fitness • September 1, 2026
Many people grew up with fitness messages focused on intensity, discipline, and “earning” food. Over time, this can create an unhealthy relationship with exercise—one driven by guilt or pressure rather than enjoyment.

Beef mince and pumpkin protein dinner bake
By Key to Life Health and Fitness • September 1, 2026
This beef mince and pumpkin protein dinner bake ticks all the nutritious (and delicious) boxes for a midweek dinner. It’s a bowl of comfort that’s brimming with flavour. A lighter, brighter lasagne, this bake can also be made gluten free if you use gluten-free lasagne sheets.
