These are the changes you’ll see and feel when you include boxing in your training - for both your body and your mind:
Stronger, Leaner Body
Boxing builds full-body strength and burns fat fast. You’ll see more definition in your arms, core, and legs while improving overall fitness and athleticism.
Better Cardio & Endurance
The high-intensity nature of boxing boosts heart health and stamina. Everyday tasks start to feel easier, and you’ll last longer in any workout.
Sharper Coordination & Balance
With every session, your footwork, timing, and reflexes improve - making you quicker, more agile, and more in control of your movements.
Stress Relief & Mental Clarity
Boxing is a powerful outlet. It releases tension, clears your head, and lifts your mood thanks to the natural endorphin rush.
Confidence & Mental Toughness
Boxing challenges you to push through discomfort, stay focused, and believe in yourself. As your skills grow, so does your confidence - inside and outside the gym.
This isn’t just training. It’s transformation - physically and mentally.
New Hatton Boxing courses coming later this year! Ask our boxing expert and experienced Hatton Instructor Vince if you’re interested.

See you at the awards night.

A thank you (as big as this gigantic carrot cake) to Gary, one of our favourite Fitness Members (especially now 🥰) for bringing in three home-made cakes for the team!
If this isn’t motivation for a Monday, we don’t know what is.
No pressure everyone…😘 !!
Thank you sooooo much Gary. ❤️

Fresh, vibrant and full of flavour - these are our top summer picks from the Members’ Bar menu at Exeter Golf and Country Club.
From the zing of our chilli prawns to the Cajun chicken salad with cooling cucumber yoghurt, or the classic crunch of (No.1 top seller 😘) Buttermilk Chicken Schnitzel, fries and rocket with parmesan - there’s something for every summer craving.
Perfect for sunny terrace lunches or post-workout/game/swim bites. Simple, seasonal, and seriously good.

This week’s Cocktail Connoisseurs are Ava and Issy…and while they loved them both, the Pineapple Daiquiri pipped the Gin Bramble to the post…
Experts they may be, but taste is subjective, so get yourself into the Pool Hut and treat yourself to this week’s Poolside Frozen Cocktails!
It’s Friday….the sun is shining…and they’re kind of healthy as they’re full of frozen fruit!

Learn to do lunges properly and your glutes start to grow, your knees stop hating you, your balance improves and your core kicks in.
It’s not ‘just a lunge’. Correct form = results.
A properly performed lunge targets the quads, glutes, hamstrings, and core, while improving balance, coordination, and mobility.
1. Start Position
Stand tall with feet hip-width apart
Engage your core and keep your chest lifted
2. Step and Drop
Step forward (or backward, depending on type)
Lower your body until both knees are at roughly 90 degrees
Front knee should be directly above your ankle
Back knee should hover just above the ground
3. Alignment
Don’t let your front knee go past your toes
Keep hips square and chest upright
Avoid leaning forward or arching your lower back
4. Push Back Up
Drive through the heel of the front foot to return to standing
Maintain control - don’t wobble or rush the movement
……….
Try these variations to target different muscles:
Forward lunge - More quad-focused
Reverse lunge - Easier on knees, more glute/hamstring activation
Walking lunge - Adds coordination and endurance
Lateral lunge - Targets inner thighs and hip mobility
Bulgarian split squat - Advanced, high glute engagement
Need your form checked, Personal Training or just want a bit of help?
Ask for Jacob or Lum in the gym.

⬆️ This is exactly why the club exists and what our team strive to provide for our members.
We’re not just a club, we’re a community and have been since 1895 when we first opened as a golf course at the top of Pennsylvania in the city. Yes, we moved to our current location on Topsham Road, and yes we’ve grown and changed over the years, but ultimately our purpose - raison-d’etre, if you like - is to be a home-from-home for our members to workout, to relax, to play sports, and to spend time with family and friends (and make new ones).

After 3 weeks of dry weather, with no recordable rainfall, we had 20mm of steady rain at the weekend. Whilst the rain was welcome hydration for the golf course, some dry patches on the course, outside of our borehole irrigation areas, can be hydrophobic after such persistent dry weather so the rain just runs off the surface.
If golfers can avoid walking over these patches, especially with trollies, it will enable any little grass seedlings to establish and therefore repair the greens and fairways more quickly.
