Cheeseburgers - reinvented for under 600 calories.

This is a great meal to prep for your weekly dinners also, just add a few greens for a boost in vitamins and it's a great all-round meal!

Happy Pancake Day 🥞

It's been a couple of weeks since I've been able to get my hands on the Aldi pancakes, but a great high protein alternative is blending one banana, two eggs, and a scoop of protein powder together. Simple and quick, yet tasty.

Here I've got some crunchy peanut butter and fresh raspberries, what's your choice of toppings?

Why weight training?

Recently I've been speaking to clients about why weight training is necessary and why 99% of the time PTs programme this over anything else. Whether you're looking to lose weight, become stronger, or increase longevity, it should be a priority.

Bodyweight work is fantastic (especially the likes of pull ups and push ups) and you can get cardiovascular benefits with exercise programmes such as HIIT (which is actually shown to help those with type 2 diabetes), but I would always advocate for weight training as well.

Here're just a few reasons as to why I'd recommend it:

Happy client = happy trainer!

Thankfully, you don't need to just run on a treadmill to lose weight or do 100 burpees. As a PT it's important we find exercises are clients not only enjoy but are for them. Yes there are things you might need to do that you don't love and that can be challenging, but it's important to find a balance.

If you're interested in finding out how you can lose weight without hours of cardio and super restrictive diets, message me today! Let's start a healthy weight loss journey.

It's not always easy training alone (even PTs get PTs).

As a trainer, you learn to get to know people's limits, and those limits can change every day. There's an art to knowing how much someone can give and it's our job to get them there safely.

If you're looking for help in the gym and aren't sure on what to do or where to start, message me today.

If it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you.

An easy meal to get 50g of protein in one go.

You can easily add in more vegetables to increase the fiber and vitamins.

Slowly bringing the scale down and the strength up!

Weight loss isn't always linear (in fact, it almost isn't ever). Would you believe this client believed she hit a plateau just a few days before this? Small changes were made, and patience was needed, but progress is often happening even if you can't see it.

How good does this look?

Meals don't need to be boring or basic when on a diet (although there's nothing wrong with that!). Focus on hitting at least 30g of protein per meal and always have veggies of some sort (health shouldn't decline when on a weight loss journey).

Anything that makes you happier and healthier is the right investment.

A lovely testimonial from Greg, who stuck with classes until venturing onto the gym floor with me.

We went straight to work, focusing on areas he wanted to improve on; building his knowledge of what he could do in his own sessions.

Happy New Year!

I'm always unbelievably thankful I can work with fantastic clients doing the job I love. I love seeing them all achieve PBs, learn how to lift for the first time, grow their confidence not only in the gym but in them selves, reach weight loss goals, understand their nutrition, and walk out of the gym after a session feeling better than when they came in.

Their dedication, hard work, smiles, passion, appreciation, messages, updates, and achievements don't go unnoticed. I'm frequently driving home thanking the universe that I'm in the job I'm in.

2022 was a big year for me, and it's like I shared it with friends, not just clients. I'm hugely grateful for this.

Here's to an even better 2023 - I can't wait to see what everyone achieves.

Helping clients feel more confident in the gym is incredibly important to me.

Training with a PT is a ticket to understanding various movements, you learn how to safely use the equipment, and know when and how to push yourself. Without these tools, you're less likely to have the confidence to train - I get it, I've been there. Let's work together on building the foundations.

There's no better investment.

Complaining about things that are in your control but you aren’t doing something about doesn’t make sense.

It's advent calendar day! That means we're only 25 days away from Christmas...and although that seems like it'll fly by, don't wait to start your journey. Imagine what you can achieve in the next 25 days.

Unsure on where to start?

Let's do it together.

We'll look into your training - what exercises are right for you?

We'll look into your daily movement - where can we increase steps and extra movement while making it fit around work?

Training and nutrition coaching doesn't have to be face to face.

Over lockdown (seems like a lifetime ago!) I moved part of my business online, and have since branched out to Nutrition Consulting also, meaning I can help people further afield.

Not all of my clients are face to face, however the support system is still the same.

So if you're looking for a coach but don't live in the local area, I'm still here for you! Let's arrange an online call to discuss how we can work together to get you on the road to being a happier, healthier, and more confident you.

Who else has a sweet tooth? 😍

These honey and whey bars are fantastic to prep in advance and have as a snack over the week. Let me know how you find them!

A lovely testimonial from a Rav 🥰

Rav worked with me after her second child. In just over 2 months she lost 6.6kg and gained confidence training in the gym. She should be super proud!

A quote from a new client last week. It was so lovely to hear this!

Getting a PT can feel nerve wracking - you’re putting your faith and trust in someone and if you’ve never had a PT, you won’t necessarily know how a session works or how you’ll feel.

Being a PT is about knowing clients; understanding their limits, knowing when they can push harder, knowing when they need to rest, knowing when & how to change the session plan even last minute, and knowing what the clients enjoys and knowing what will benefit the client.

If you’re unsure if Personal Training is right for you, why not come in for a consultation? There’s no commitment at this point - it’s the ideal time to see if personal training is right for you, and if I am!

If this is something you’d like to set up, feel free to drop me a message or email me at [email protected].

An Autumnal warmer to try this weekend 😍

Vegan pumpkin soup

Don't let your pumpkins go to waste. Try this Vegan Pumpkin Soup:

Vegan pumpkin soup Make the most of pumpkin season in early autumn with this healthy vegan pumpkin soup. Toast the pumpkin seeds and use as a garnish to add texture

Some clients come to me purely for movement. With desk-based jobs that can leave them feeling stressed, 30 minutes or an hour of movement a day can help not only improve their health, but also help them unwind.

I would encourage everyone, regardless of their job or lifestyle to move daily. Whether it be body weight work on the floor, a brisk walk at lunch, or lifting in free weights. Movement is SO good for you.

Did you know you don’t have to cut these out when losing weight?
