The Undercard Block · Bondi Junction + Paddington · 9 Nov to 19 Dec
Test your numbers on 9 November. Beat them before Christmas.
Six weeks of coached strength, boxing and running across both our studios. You test in week one, train to a plan, retest in week six, then we celebrate together on Saturday 19 December.
Why I built it
Most people train hard all year and finish it with nothing but a feeling. No number to beat. No date to aim at. Then December hits, the routine slips, and January becomes the plan.
The Block fixes that. A start date, a test, six weeks with a plan, a retest and a party. By 19 December you'll know exactly how much stronger and fitter you got, because you'll have the numbers in front of you.
How the six weeks run
Week 1 (Mon 9 to Fri 13 Nov): Test.
Test at one studio or both. It's up to you.
At Paddington: 3 rep max deadlift, bench press, back squat and weighted chin-up, plus a 2km row or ski (or 4km bike).
At Bondi Junction: 100m sprint (Tue 10 or Thu 12 Nov) and 1km run (Wed 11 or Sat 14 Nov) on the Skillmill.
Weeks 2 to 5: Build.
Every strength class at both studios runs the same plan. Monday deadlift, Tuesday bench, Thursday chin-ups, Friday squat, with the weight going up each week. Bondi Junction runs the dumbbell version.
Week 6 (Mon 14 to Fri 18 Dec): Retest.
Same test, same studio, same machine. Your week one number is the only one you're trying to beat.
Saturday 19 December: Run retest, then the end-of-year party.
Results and awards on the night.
What your ticket includes
- A six-week strength program: written for both studios, so you can train at either and stay on plan. Every Undercard pass covers both studios.
- Testing in week 1 and week 6: so your progress is a number, not a guess.
- A six-week boxing workshop with Kes: one group for beginners and one for advanced, building week to week. We'll lock in the times once we know numbers and let you know.
- A weekly check-in with Kes: send your numbers, your sessions and how the week went by Thursday 5pm. He reads every one and replies on Friday.
- Your own 7-day meal plan: once you're in, you get the Block Fuel Calculator. Put in your stats and goal and it builds meals and snacks to your calories and protein. Backed by our nutrition guide.
- A breathwork session: mid-way through, included in your ticket.
- An online briefing: the week before we start, recorded if you join late.
- The end-of-year party: Saturday 19 December.
Never lifted a barbell? Good.
Week one isn't about lifting something huge. A 3 rep max is the heaviest weight you can move cleanly for three reps, and a coach sets where you start. If chin-ups aren't there yet, you test with a band or your bodyweight. Strength classes are small and coach-led, so it feels a lot like PT.
Boxing member who's never been to Paddington? This is your reason to come.
Strength member who's never boxed? The beginners' workshop is built for you. Almost everyone who starts with us has never boxed.
One honest thing: this isn't for turning up whenever. Check-ins are compulsory. Miss one and you'll hear from Kes.
