Kickstart your health and wellness journey!
Do you want to make exercise a part of your life? Do you want to improve your energy levels, strength and all round fitness?
Welcome to DediKate Ground Zero! This is a 6 week challenge designed for beginners, those who have been sedentary for a while or for those who have lost their way with fitness. The challenge starts easier and it gradually builds up, improving your strength and fitness.
You will exercise 4x per week, in a realistic and sustainable way. You can do it!
We all start somewhere!
"During changes in my life such as starting university, travelling and having children, I struggled to prioritise my health and fitness. This led to feelings of dissatisfaction, weight gain and low self-confidence.
It is these experiences that inspired me to help others. I GET it! It can be tough, but if you take each day at a time you will be amazed by what you can achieve and by the endless physical and mental benefits you will experience."

Amber's Story
"I'm super proud of what I have achieved in my fitness since beginning my journey with Ground Zero and DediKate. I have consistently achieved 4-5 workouts a week, doubled my fitness in squats and push ups and nearly doubled my prone hold. I am a school teacher and I have two teenage children. It's been great to feel more energetic and alive in both my home life and school."
Samantha's Story
"I saw the Ground Zero challenge pop up and it was just what I needed. It was the perfect place to start and I decided to give it a go and joined DediKate. My mental health improved so much, previously I was feeling worthless that I couldn't do it all, now I am feeling more in control and less stressed. I am so happy I made a start!"
Anna's Story
"Doing the Ground Zero challenge was the kick start I needed to get things back on track and to put time into me. Exercising always brings the happy endorphins, and it has been fun seeing our tamariki learn the exercises alongside. Some days it has been a whānau affair. My testing showed that through consistency I improved my times and number of reps, as well as feeling happier, I have more energy and more patience with the kids."
