Gym buddy wanted for mutual exercise motivation at CityFitness Thorndon!
I am looking for a gym buddy for mutual exercise motivation at CityFitness Thorndon!
(www.cityfitness.co.nz...
Even before corona closed in, I was in dire need of regular exercise. Now that we’re emerging from lockdown, I’m especially keen to get into it. I really enjoy the gym environment once I am there, but my problem is the motivation to get up in the morning and go. I’ve discovered that I am extrinsically motivated, in that I am much more likely to exercise regularly if I am accountable to someone else to turn up on time. Likewise, if you have similar motivation issues, I would be there to encourage you to turn up and do your own workout at our agreed times.
I’m hoping to meet up two or preferably three weekday mornings a week, and finish working out by about 8am so that I can start work by 8:30am.
I live in Thorndon (five minutes’ walk from City Fitness) and work for the Department of Internal Affairs on Pipitea Street (but at home for now).
I would look to do machine weight workouts and cardio, perhaps with the occasional group fitness class. But you could do your own workout – I don’t need a ‘spotter’, just someone to motivate me to get to the gym.
I am 39 years old, and not bothered about your age or gender. Happy to meet up and discuss further if you are interested.
Cheers,
Tim Hickey

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
