The introductory offer won me over - Just $59 for 3 personal training sessions!…read more Knowing the price of PT sessions at the big chain gyms, this was definitely a bargain. I wasn't sure what to expect from the health and fitness shop, BodiZone, but was pleasantly surprised at the friendly staff who were very welcoming. Unlike so many other gyms, especially ones that stock such a wide range of pre and post workout supplements, whey protein and Creatine, this place doesn't have the musclehead egos, and the clientele is quite varied. Men and women of all ages and fitness levels train here, and there's quite a following of regulars. After a few weeks of regular PT sessions, BodiZone became my own personal Cheers bar, "where everybody knows your name" and I was making friendly banter with the other PT regulars as we warmed up on the treadmills before our one on one session with our trainers. On top of Personal Training there are also group boxing classes throughout the week and group boot camp sessions on the weekend. Anyone can attend these group classes on a casual basis, and if you're seeing a personal trainer then you get a 50% discount on group class costs. Group Boxing & Bootcamp - $10 for non-members, $5 for members. PT sessions are $299 for 10 x 30 minute sessions (pre-paid).

Smug. Trolley. This…read moreis a spot of the smuggest of your health food desires to emerge and be openly out and proud, and while it may be a smaller store for a Flannery's, there's still plenty to feel virtuous about. They stock the general range of health foods, bulk-buy grains, a small fresh produce and deli section and plenty of vitamins and such. The staff on the day that I visited weren't as hands on as other Flannery's I've visited and it seems, as I was, to be a shop to go when you know what you want already. Still, there's enough to keep you wandering to stray from your shopping list. I have two sachets of coconut butter to prove it. TL; DR? An amply stocked local health food store. Great for specifically wanted items and often worth calling before you visit to ensure it's in stock.

Organic stores are not always easy to find and the health food section of most suburban…read moresupermarkets is pretty pitiful, so Mrs Flannery's Natural Grocer chain of stores in Brisbane is a blessing. The stores are almost supermarket sized, and the Chermside store is no different. It stocks a huge range of products including coffee, nuts, grains, flours, dairy, frozen meals, skin care, vitamins and household products. They stock a full range of environmentally and allergy friendly cleaning products and household products. Whatever your allergy, there are products to suit your needs. Gluten-free, grain-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, vegan, organic - they have it all. A huge range of products can be purchased by weight, so you can buy as much or as little as you need in brown paper bags, making it environmentally friendly too. There is every kind of flour imaginable - regular, wholemeal, spelt, maize, chickpea. They stock 3 types of Quinoa, which is my favourite grain substitute at the moment. I always stock up on the soy crisps, Japanese rice crackers and dried vegetable crisps. I also recommend filling up a brown bag full of French Vanilla Granola clusters. It's not the cheapest store, and I wouldn't do a full grocery shop there, but it's great for those speciality items. And if you or your family suffer from allergies or food intolerance, this store will make your life a lot easier.
