HIIT Station: Muay Thai-inspired Nambour gym really packs a punch

HIIT Station owners Katie and Daniel Culgan … People of all ages and levels of fitness are welcome and catered for at the HIIT Station.

A new gym opened in Currie Street Nambour on Sunday, with owners Katie and Daniel Culgan excited to bring the HIIT Station franchise to town.

“We have been in and around the fitness industry for many years and have tried lots of different types of gyms,” Katie said. “But it wasn’t until we joined a HIIT Station gym on the Coast that we really felt we had found ‘our family’.”

HIIT Station run  28 Classes each week inspired by the sport Muay Thai Kickboxing. 

HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. It involves alternating short bursts of intense work, with a low intensity recovery, which is ideal for beginners chasing a fast result.

Classes incorporate strength & conditioning methods to help achieve a strong, lean physique.

“When the opportunity arose for us to become HIIT Station franchisees, we jumped at it, because we love this brand and we love to help people achieve their fitness goals in any way we can,” said Katie. “I have met many people who are motivated to make healthy changes in their lives, but are overwhelmed by the process of doing this,” Katie explained.

“Our 8 Week Transformation Program is a wonderful starting point because it educates people about nutrition and exercise and supports them to make a start, whatever their current state of fitness is. It can be about losing weight or gaining muscle too.”

People of all ages and levels of fitness are welcome and catered for at the HIIT Station.

“We have members aged from 17 to 70, working out alongside each other in ways that are tailored to them,” Katie said. “And you can have as little or as much support as you want from our trainers.

“Daniel has played rugby league all of his life and he has a real passion for training sportsmen, footballers in particular.”
