HUMP DAY
= REST DAY
98 Gym’s head of
programming, Kev Toonen,
designs the weekly
schedule with Wednesday
as a day of rest. “I want
Wednesday to be a
mid-week reset and mindset
calibration.“ Take his word
for it and give yourself
a break. If you’ve earned
it, that is.

DID YOU
KNOW?
As men age, our testosterone
levels begin to decrease. After
the age of 30, we see a drop-off
rate of around one per cent each
year. Doctors have found weight
lifting is one way to boost
testosterone. The caveat – for
the benefits to be realised, this
can’t be a one-off but part of
an ongoing routine. So this,
we hate to break it to you,
is just the start.

PLAN AHEAD
Meal delivery orders are an
ideal way to ensure your diet
stays on point. Because,
who actually has time to
cook anymore? Here’s our
pick of the bunch:

WHEN
AT H OM E
Didn’t we warn you this
would happen? It’s Saturday
and you’ve managed a grand
total of zero workouts this
week. Yes, we understand
you had lots on. The only
way to salvage the week is
sneak in some last-minute
calorie burning from the
comfort of your own living
room. Get to it.

“Wake up determined.
Go to bed satisfied.”
A pearl of wisdom from
our favourite ex-wrestler.
