The GuavaGuy Review – Bespoke Ride

written by Simon Bower

When we wanted to challenge a guy to try out GuavaPass, Simon was the right man for the task.

Many men we talked to before, mistakenly think group classes are all about dancing. We wanted to prove them wrong.

So it seemed right to throw the task to someone with a slightly above-average interest for fitness, who’s not scared of change but likes to spend weekends at Club Vista Mare. After some convincing, Simon accepted the challenge to review a few GuavaPass Studio Partners in Dubai.

We told Simon to try classes that he normally wouldn’t have signed up for if it wasn’t for GuavaPass. For the coming few weeks, Simon will be our dedicated GuavaGuy and share his stories here on our blog and through his Instagram (@sibower). Enjoy the show!

The Review

This weeks challenge was at Bespoke Ride, a gym in Al Quoz I’d not heard of before. Despite being a little difficult to find, when I did, a cold shiver came over me as I realized BR stood for Bespoke Ride. Could I have been tricked into my worst nightmare – a spin class?
After signing in and meeting the super friendly Nel on the front desk, I was given a guided tour of the place. The gym was smaller than some of the other warehouse gyms I’ve visited, but it was stocked with all the equipment a calisthenics fan needs. From rings to barbells, to dip bars (and belts), and even a Jacobs Ladder machine (more on this torture device later).  The final room I was shown was a room full of bikes, and I mean actual bikes, not spin machines. The equipment was all top notch, and if I was a cycling fan I’m sure I would’ve been excited. However, the fear of a potential spin class had taken grip. I was sure my fateful doom was sealed.
This dread was soon replaced with joy, as I discovered I was there for a group PT session. Heaven. The session had 5 different circuits, 4 stations on each, and 3 times around each. A lengthy slog. Also, you had under an hour to complete.
Exercises included sit up variations, to TRX, to dumbbell press, to the bastard Jacobs Ladder. This stair climbing machine (shown in the photo), can f**k off. Horrible torture device – which I can’t deny, was a great workout.

The Verdict

Although this was a group PT session, you could start whenever you like, and a few other members strolled in whilst I was halfway through my 2nd circuit.  Perfect for people who are useless at time keeping, as it gave the class a bit more of a relaxed ‘go at your own pace’ vibe.  If you’re a regular who knows your burps from your burpees, then this ‘self-motivating’ approach is all good. However, if you have the motivation of a sloth, and need a kick up that ever-sagging arse, then there are classes out there that might be better suited.
Overall, I’m keen to go again to see how much the circuit changes, and I definitely feel some form of leaderboard of best times would help bring out the competitor in everyone who goes.
Those bikes though…

The Review

When my mate Johanna texted and asked if I wanted to do some strength and conditioning training at an outdoor gym on the JBR beach front, I was all over it.  I had visions of me being confused for a 1970s Arnold Schwarzenegger, busy getting buff on Venice Beach California. Then she mentioned it was a Wonder Woman circuit and my testicles shriveled up, along with my visions of being a bronzed-beach Adonis.  My first and obvious question was “Is this a Women Only class?” Her the reply was “Absolutely not”. Surely a stitch up.

I donned my sports bra and active wear, and made my way down to Warehouse Gym Beach in JBR.  First impressions were that it was pretty small compared to the Al Quoz branch, however the outdoor gym made up for this. Full of Olympic bars, calisthenics frame and a few machines here and there. Perfect for the sort of training I like. The warm up involved a beach run, great for someone with crap knees (like myself), and a variety of further bodyweight exercises.

The class was split into 2 circuits, each with 5 stations, and covering a variety of core, aerobic and strength exercises.  The exercises included some static strength, as well as a few mobility. I couldn’t hide my disappointment at the lack of heavy strength exercises, or at least getting to use some Olympic bars. My dreams of looking like Arnold on Venice Beach were quickly diminishing. Despite this, with the addition of the incessant heat, I was f*cked by the end. A top 3 finish in the beach sprinting finisher did perk me up a little though. The associated prize of tickets to the Wonder Woman Premiere and a very skimpy Wonder Woman vest, which I’ll be sure to wear to my next power lifting session.

GuavaGuy Review

GuavaGuy Review

The Verdict

All in all a great outdoor class, covering a variety of exercises and great trainers. Might be one to avoid during the summer, but if you’re brave enough, be sure to take plenty of liquid and definitely don’t do what I did and plan a date straight after. Additionally, the café downstairs does some awesome tasty and healthy post workout Poke bowls (or so I’ve heard; I was too dead to eat).

The GuavaGuy Review – Voyoga

The Review

Up there with spin classes as my biggest fear is hot yoga. The stress of a potential rogue fart, combined with the soup like atmosphere of Dubai in peak summer. Hell.  However, for a tin man athlete like myself, I need to do these sort of classes to fix my ever declining flexibility and mobility.

The studio was fairly similar to the few other yoga studios I have visited and the staff seemed friendly and helpful. As I walked into the hot yoga room, I thought to myself “this is going to be ok”, but when the class started that all changed.

The teacher was both terrifying and lovable in equal measures, which drove me to push myself a bit further than usual.  Watching my super buff, overly inflexible friend struggling also gave me a much-needed boost during the toughest parts of the class.  The poses we went through were challenging from both a strength and flexibility point of view, and I had moments where I had to stop (not something I usually do during classes).

During one of the more strenuous parts of the class, the guy next to me had to go and lie down.  I looked at him a few minutes later, and to be 100% honest I thought he was dead.  He had gone a very unnatural pale color, and suddenly reality hit me – would I actually survive this class?  When my vision started to go a little blurry I feared the worst but persisted. 

GuavaGuy Review

GuavaGuy Review

The Verdict

Even the heavenly tone of “last pose” brought further dread, as predictably it was not. However, after 75 minutes (a real slog for a hot yoga class), it was over.  Despite the fact I hit some real challenging low points during the class, I felt awesome after.  The fact it was such a challenge, and that it’s incredibly good for someone like me, means I will definitely be doing another one of these hellish classes. Highly recommended for standard men who lift and sit at desks all day.

Success – Another yoga class down without the shame of a rogue bowel movement (unfortunately I can’t say the same for the attractive participant on the mat next to me).

The GuavaGuy Review – Round 10 Boxing Club

written by Simon Bower

When we wanted to challenge a guy to try out GuavaPass, Simon was the right man for the task.

Many men we talked to before, mistakenly think group classes are all about dancing. We wanted to prove them wrong.

So it seemed right to throw the task to someone with a slightly above-average interest for fitness, who’s not scared of change but likes to spend weekends at Club Vista Mare. After some convincing, Simon accepted the challenge to review a few GuavaPass Studio Partners in Dubai.

The Review

Like most men who have done a few boxing classes and hit the pads a few times with friends, I basically consider myself Muhammad Ali. I saw this Boxing Circuit class at Round 10 Boxing Club in JLT as an opportunity to showcase my skills – and potentially get scouted as a contender to tempt Mayweather out of retirement. Plus, I now have my own wraps and gloves, so…

I was greeted by the manager – who was awesome – and gave me a very proud tour around the new gym. The facilities are good for a boxing gym. They’re both a group training room with multiple heavy bags and equipment, and a more intimate room, complete with a ring and a variety of different bags. The view out the window was pretty good too. 

I was then told where the changing room was, only to find I had walked into a toilet/shower room. But no, apparently this was the changing room, so take note: ARRIVE READY AND CHANGED.

The class started with standard warm ups followed by 20 mins of conditioning drills, which was hard work, but could’ve been a lot worse.  We then partnered up for some drills, before hitting the bags.  The drills were good, but it would’ve been great if there were some progressions for people slightly more experienced.  I get that feeling with a lot of boxing classes that the instructors are boxers who started coaching, as opposed to trained coaches/instructors who took a course on boxing.  This is a double edged sword – you might not get the personal, tailored element you get with a PT, but you do get to learn some things you might not necessarily get with a generic trainer.

GuavaGuy Review

GuavaGuy Review

The Verdict

Overall the gym is great – minus the changing room – and the class is good for beginners.  They do offer a pure technique class as well, which is unique and definitely one I’m going to check out. 

Gotta go, I think Mayweather Promotions is ringing me…

The GuavaGuy Review – Yoga House

The Review

As a bog standard male with the flexibility of a piece of wood, there are few things I dread more than a yoga class.  The theory and benefits are awesome. However, the stress of a potential ill-timed bottom burp combined with the shame of looking like I’ve run a marathon, means I don’t look forward to these types of classes.

To minimize the stress and potential shame, I went with a few friends. When we arrived at Yoga House, I immediately felt calmer. The staff was friendly and the main studio had a nice ambiance, without being too wanky. The class was Hatha Yoga. It focused on the hips, perfect for someone like me, who sits at a desk all day and doesn’t stretch much.

The class started with the usual breathing and light stretching. Then it started to pick up to more involved and strenuous moves. Wooden blocks and straps were on offer to help with some of the more advanced moves, a real plus for beginners like myself.  Most of the moves were standard yoga poses I had done previously, but some of the additional hip focused moves were awesome. These are now featured in my standard cool down routine.

During the peak of the class, I can honestly say I was struggling. The pool of sweat on my mat was proof.  After the final downward dog was complete, we began to relax and focus on our breathing and light hip stretching. This is when I started to feel good. My whole body felt relaxed and my hips felt looser than they have been for a long time. The instructor came round and spent time with each person, further stretching out their hips. This made me feel even better, as I’m not ashamed to admit, I fell a bit in love with the instructor that day. She was attentive, positive, had a hypnotic calming effect, and spent a bit of time with everyone throughout the class.

Yoga House Review

The Verdict

I came out looking like I’d run a marathon, and definitely heard one rogue fart during the class – not me I hasten to add. Nevertheless, I came out of this class feeling great. This was a nice studio and great class (especially for the hips). That combined with a lovely instructor, and all topped off with a wholesome breakfast at Arrows and Sparrows, made this the perfect Friday pre-brunch warm up.

The GuavaGuy Review – Warehouse Gym Al Quoz

The Review

As everyone knows, Thursdays in Dubai usually involve a “few drinks”, no dinner and a whole lot of regret/shame/self-loathing. However, I thought I would take a different route this week and attend one of the circuit classes at Warehouse Gym.  With a new gym opened in JBR, this chain of gyms was one I wanted to check out.

To be honest, when I walked in, I didn’t know whether to start poppin’ n lockin’ or to bust out a spray can and graffiti my GuavaGuy tag on the wall. On closer inspection the place has everything. From a boxing ring and bags to gymnastic rings and much more. This is one of the best-stocked gyms I’ve been to in Dubai.

Warehouse Gym Review

Warehouse Gym Review

I signed up to the Gone in 60 Seconds class. Apart from knowing it was a circuit class I had no idea what to expect.  When the circuit on the board involves numbers as high as 100 reps (as warm up!), you know you’re in trouble. However, this was a refreshing change from classes which deem 30 seconds of star jumps as a sufficient warm up.

The class involved 4 stations, 2 of which were cardio and 2 focusing more on strength.  Each of the strength stations had 3 different exercises, one for each minute. As per any circuit class, the more you put in, the more you get out. So by the end of the second circuit, I was dead. At this point, the last thing you want to hear is “just one more exercise to go”. Nonetheless, after a 400m run and 350 mountain climbers, I was done.

At this point, the class did a typical Dubai does faux pas; no cool down. After a few mediocre quad and hamstring stretches, I was deciding whether to go out or get a takeaway.

The Verdict

If you’re looking to get a nice aerobic high before the weekend, this class is great. Cool gym, good instructor, a great way to start the weekend.

Healthy Breakfasts in Dubai You Need To Try

written by Healthy Nomads

Healthy breakfasts in Dubai that you need to try

After a nice workout with our GuavaPass, all we need is to recover with a good breakfast. Choosing a healthy option will help you to control overeating and to curb sugar and carb cravings during the day. We have compiled our list of favorite healthy breakfast places in Dubai for GuavaPass:

friends-avenue

  1.  Friends’ Avenue, Jumeirah Lakes Towers.

This café is definitely top on our list for healthy breakfasts in Dubai, not only because the location is super convenient for us but also because it offers the magic formula for a perfect breakfast: high quality ingredients, affordable prices, good service and a really nice atmosphere! We absolutely love it! Breakfast is served until 11:30am on weekdays, and 1pm on weekends.

GuavaPass best match: the perfect breakfast after trying a class at Fit Boys Gym or Pilates Academy in JLT

What to eat: don’t miss their Brekkie board, scrambled eggs and granola.

What to drink: we love their coffee and their smoothies (especially the fruit booster).

Where: Fortune Executive Tower, Cluster T, Jumeirah Lakes Towers

0445545813. www.friendsavenue.ae

acai-spot-2

The Açaí Spot, Deira.

We were not familiar with Açaí until we travelled to Rio de Janeiro, and we were missing out big time. This delicious berry is one of the healthiest fruits you will ever find. It is an indigenous berry found in the Amazon rainforest. It is full of antioxidants, which improve your skin and has anti-aging effects. It is proven to help fight heart disease and cancer and some studies prove that it helps to achieve weight loss goals. An amazing superfood that you should consider adding into your diet!

Since we came back from our trip, we have been searching for places to get our fix of Açaí in Dubai. That’s when we found The Acai Spot (queue ray of light and angels singing). Nicely decorated, this place pulls you into a chilled Brazilian atmosphere, provides a really good service, and has a wide menu of healthy options, most of them including Acai as their base ingredient.

Guavapass best match: great if you try a class of Core & Stretching  at Soma Fit & Spa

What to eat: Original Acai Bowl (with banana slices and granola) and Pão de Queijo (typical Brazilian cheese balls deliciousness).

What to drink: Açaí smoothie or Açaí Mojito.

Where: Centurion Star Hotel (shop 20). Port Saaed, Deira. 

042959099. www.theacaispotcafe.com

Processed with VSCOcam with hb2 preset

Processed with VSCOcam with hb2 preset

Common Grounds, Mall of the Emirates.

One of the best restaurants of the new extension at Mall of the Emirates is “Common Grounds”, a new concept from the owners of the awarded café “Tom & Serg”.

Normally we are not really keen to dine inside a mall, but this Australian-European inspired café is a really nice option if you want to have a nutritious breakfast or simply a good coffee once you are at the mall.

GuavaPass best match: if you try the Open Gym at Hilton Double Tree Barsha, it’s just a couple of minutes away!

What to eat: Smashed avocado with poached eggs or the big breaky.

What to drink: their coffee is a must. If you want to have something different, try their smoothie selections!

Where: Level 2 Expansion near VOX Cinemas, Mall of the Emirates. 04 4551663. www.commongroundsdubai.com

comptoir-2

  1. Comptoir 102, Jumeirah.

Located in the heart of Jumeirah, this place is not only a healthy café, but also a super-cool concept store. Once you are there, you will feel at home, a pleasantly designed one. You can find everything from jewelry to clothes or fine decoration from selected designers.

All the food served at Comptoir 102 comes directly from organic farms (they even have a daily menu accordingly to the harvest). Everything is sugar and dairy-free, and they also have some options without gluten. And the most important, it’s all delicious!

GuavaPass best match: amazing after a class at Physique 57 or Eco Yoga Sanctuary

What to eat: buckwheat pancakes with berries or with “green” eggs and avocado (if you prefer a salty option).

What to drink: mixed berries smoothie.

Where: 102 Beach Road,near Dubai Zoo, Jumeirah 1. 043854555. www.comptoir102.com

more

  1.  More Café, Al Murooj Rotana.

More Café has 3 different branches between Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Our favorite is located at Murooj Rotana (in front of Dubai Mall). Its outdoor area makes it a really enjoyable place for breakfast or lunch (well, during fall and winter at least).

One of the highlights of More Café is its diverse menu, having options of dishes from all over the world. The prices are reasonable and the quality of the ingredients is superb. You can also buy their bread, coffee and ice-cream to-go at their grocery shopping area.

GuavaPass best match: great breakfast after a yoga class at Piloga or burning all your calories at BARE.

What to eat: the vegetarian sandwich is a must and you can never go wrong with their eggs benedict!

What to drink: kiwi smoothie or their wide coffee selection.

Where: D 71, Near Financial Center Rd, Downtown Dubai. 043433779. http://www.morecafe.co

bertin-bistro-7-of-9

  1. Bertin Bistro and restaurant

We came across Bertin Bistro & Restaurant the first time thanks to their exciting and engaging social media presence (check out their Instagram and Facebook). The beautiful photos of all the delicious food makes you want to come back and try more than just the breakfast.

The interior of the restaurant is different than the usual places you can find in Dubai. It truly has character and will take you on a journey of how Bertin Bistro got this far. On the walls and in the menus you can see a timeline with stories and photos of Mr. Bertin on how he started in France and then took inspiration from his time in Spain (Andalusia) and Morocco.

We highly recommend to visit Bertin Bistro & Restaurant for a delicious breakfast. They even do a special breakfast menu for just 55AED which includes more than you can think of. The atmosphere is great and the service is perfect. We will definitely go back soon and possibly try the dinner options as well since they all seem promising!

GuavaPass best match: perfect breakfast after a class of Barre at Café de La Danse or Physique 57.

What to eat: salmon eggs benedict and chia seeds bowl with fruits.

What to drink: Tropical sensation (mango & banana smoothy) and of course, the cappuccino (ask for your favorite design).

Where: Manara, Street 21B, Opposite Times Square, Sheikh Zayed Road, Al – 043219239
