Welcome to FitEx 2014
700 + Attendees (the biggest so far) So, whats new? This year, we've continued the popular elements such as the PT Breakfast, and an opening ceremony that shouldn't be missed, while also incorporating new features such as the special sessions of The Great Nutrition Debate, and the REPs Pre-Screening Launch (see page 9 for more details of both). Having been to a few conferences over the years, one thing is certain - by the end your brain will be full with more than just a few ideas! My top conference tip is to make a list, limit yourself to three do tomorrow and three implement in the next 6 months and then commit to doing these (feel free to use the notes page on the back of this document to keep track of your top three). We love your feedback, so remember - fill out those feedback forms, it helps guide our decisions for future events. Richard Beddie, CE ExerciseNZ
Our thanks go to... Thank you to the premium partners of ExerciseNZ, without their support putting together events such as the conference, roadshow and summits would not be possible.
Thank you also to Skills Active and the NZ Register of Exercise Professionals for recognising and supporting the FitEx event

Conference A-Z Accommodation
If you have had accommodation confirmed you will already have been sent information on how, and where to check in, as well as the specific house rules. This year the accommodation is NOT on site, so we will not be able to issue keys. The accommodation provider will handle this If you arrive out of normal office hours on site security will assist you. Please follow instructions at reception.

Conference Office
The Conference Office is referred to frequently in this book. This is an office where you can purchase replacement name tags, find out information or seek assistance.

For your comfort
Some sessions are practical and require things like yoga / exercise mats (these are a high demand item). If you have your own mat and don't mind bringing it then please do, as this will improve your session experience.
Feedback Forms - Session
We appreciate your feedback so encourage you to complete feedback forms at the conclusion of each session. When you enter the session you will be given a feedback form.

Session Info / Speaker Profiles The session and rooming schedule can be found on pages 10-14. Please refer to the FitEx brochure for full speaker and session information.
Sessions with limited places We do not operate a session booking system so if there is a session that you must see then we suggest you get to the session room early. Sessions may be moved at short notice. This may be done to accommodate more attendees in the session. If this is the case a note will be left on the door as listed on page 10-14 advising the new location Some sessions may be limited by the availability of equipment, if this is the case you are welcome to share, or observe the session. Yoga/Exercise mats are in high demand so if you have your own and don't mind bringing it, then this will ensure you have a mat to use at any time.
Transportation - Shuttles Shuttles are the best option if traveling in a group. $49 for 1 then $9 per person there after.
Transportation Public Transport See www.maxx.co.nz for trip advice on public transport. Select “Akoranga Station” as the desitnation (see map on back cover).
