Exercise Spotlight: Suitcase Carry

The Suitcase Carry, also known as the Loaded Carry, is an excellent exercise that targets multiple muscle groups including the core, glutes, legs, shoulders, and arms. Holding a kettlebell at your side simulates everyday activities, such as carrying a heavy gym bag or groceries.

✅ Key Takeaways:
Form Check 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, keeping your core engaged and your back straight.
Form Check 2: Position your palm facing your body as you pick up the kettlebell.
Form Check 3: Maintain balance and stability, ensuring your shoulders remain level.

Incorporating the Suitcase Carry into your routine can help alleviate back pain and enhance balance. Additionally, it's a beneficial exercise for boosting grip strength and increasing shoulder stability.

Most people hear “exercise is good for you”…
but not many are told why it supports cancer treatment.

Here’s the simple truth:
Movement increases blood flow, oxygen, and immune cell activity —
and that helps treatment reach the tumour more effectively.

You don’t need intense workouts.
You don’t need to push through exhaustion.
Just safe, intentional movement at your own pace.

That’s why at Cornerstone, we guide cancer survivors gently,
focusing on what the body can do,
not what it can’t.

Exercise will never replace treatment —
but it can absolutely support it in ways many people have never been told.

If you’re navigating treatment or recovery and want to learn how to move safely,
We're here to help you, one step at a time.

🏋️ Exercise Spotlight: Barbell Deadlift 🏋️

The Barbell Deadlift is a powerful full-body movement that primarily targets the glutes, quads, hamstrings, and erector spinae, making it an excellent choice for building both strength and muscle mass.

Join Jeremy as we explore this exercise in our .

✅ Key Takeaways:
Form Check 1: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, positioning the barbell over the middle of your foot.
Form Check 2: Engage your lats by pulling your elbows back.
Form Check 3: Ensure your core is braced!

Once your form is perfected, take a deep breath and push the floor away as you lift the barbell, keeping it close to your body. To lower the bar, hinge at your hips while maintaining that close proximity as you set the weight down.

The Barbell Deadlift closely resembles movements you perform in daily life, so enhancing your strength in this exercise can significantly reduce your risk of injury.

Not an escape from life.

Just a space to move.
To breathe.
To get stronger — physically and mentally.

Movement doesn’t solve everything.
But it builds resilience.
Regulates stress.
Restores confidence.

For many of us,
this is part of the healing.

Sometimes the best therapy
is simply showing up and lifting anyway. 🌟

From our team to you —

May this year bring you
better balance,
stronger bodies,
and quieter, steadier minds 🧘‍♀️

Eat well.
Laugh loudly.
Move often.
& Rest well.

Happy Chinese New Year! 🧧🍊

💪🏻 Meet Our Trainer: Gina 💪🏻

Gina’s fitness journey began on the netball court in secondary school. Growing up, she often struggled with self-confidence, partly due to living with eczema and feeling self-conscious in social and sports settings. The pressure to fit in even led her to take extreme measures to lose weight, which taught her firsthand the challenges of unhealthy approaches to fitness. Over time, through sports and later weightlifting, she learned how breaking big goals into small, achievable steps could build lasting confidence.

Today, that mindset shapes the way she coaches. Gina believes movement is a tool for mental resilience, clarity, and self-belief. She is passionate about helping people build strong foundations physically and mentally so they can work towards future goals with confidence.

Gina is also dedicated to empowering women, inspired in part by growing up in a culture where women were often expected to take on traditional domestic roles. Holding pre- and post-natal certifications, she guides clients safely through all stages of motherhood while also supporting men and women of all backgrounds in becoming stronger, fitter, and more confident in their everyday lives.
