B.R.H Fitness - Coaching by Beth Hanson

A quick post leg day stretch - save it to try after your next leg day ✨

Hold each for around 30 seconds, deep breaths in and out.

Dynamic warm up to save for your next leg day 💥

Repeat the sequence 2x through, I go for 5-8 reps of each movement.

Learning to train because you respect yourself, not because you hate how you look >>> 🖤

The gym for me quickly became a place where I could switch off, challenge myself, and prove to myself that I’m capable of allll the hard things. And that was when I was 17! Since then, training has helped to get me through so much, a lot more than I ever would have thought.

That’s why some days it’s heavy lifts and pushing to the max.. and some days it’s just about showing up and moving your body.

Either way, it counts and BOTH are as important as one another.

Fitness isn’t only about changing physically (and I will shout that from the rooftops forever), it’s about building confidence, routine, resilience, having an output for your emotions, and making yourself proud.

And that’s what I love helping other people achieve too ✨

Strong never came from comfort zones 💅🏼

This photo shows more than a pull-up. It’s discipline, consistency, and showing up even (or most importantly!) when it’s hard. Progress isn’t always loud or flashy… sometimes it looks like one more rep, better form, or simply not quitting.

If you’re waiting to feel ready, don’t.
Start now. Build strength, both physically and mentally and the confidence will follow.

Ready to level up your training? Let’s goooo 🤩

Most people who go to the gym don’t have a problem with motivation…

They just don’t know how to work to intensity when training.

This is what gets results the fastest:
⭐ Proper exercise form
⭐ Controlled reps
⭐ Pushing close to failure
⭐ Knowing when to pull back
⭐ Not quitting when it starts hurting; this is where you make the most progress

If you want proper structure, accountability, and results…

Give me a message ✨

24 HOURS NOTICE.
No event specific prep.
But she still went out and absolutely SMASHED IT. 🏆

I’m honestly so full of pride for this girl 🙏❤️ anything I throw at her, she takes in her stride and this event was no different. When her mums partner dropped out, Jorja stepped up 🤩 (well done to Jorja’s mum too, such a great thing to do together and both aced it!!)

We’ve mainly been focusing on strength training with a few circuits thrown in, so stepping in to do this shows not only her bravery but her athlete mindset. She showed up, got to work and showed herself exactly what she’s capable of.
This is one huge achievement, and she’s only getting started 💅🏼 🏆 🏅

Jorja I am beyond proud of you, you absolute star ❤️

FEBRUARY CHALLENGE WINNER…

LOUISE! 🏆

Massive congratulations to February’s (and the first ever) Champ… LOUISE 🥇👏

I decided to set a weekly challenge on the group as extra ‘homework’ to add another achievement to everyone’s weeks, and to push motivation more.

For the last 6 weeks, you have put in consistent, hard effort every single time alongside your training sessions no matter what the challenge has been!

From the first challenge (squats, push ups & lunges) right through to that final weeks workout going over everything we had covered over the previous weeks, you gave it your all and got every single challenge completed.

You should be proud of yourself, I am so proud of you!

We know motivation comes and goes…

So how do we keep progressing despite that?

Consistency is honestly the most important part of it all! Here are a few rules I use to ensure I’m not relying on motivation alone.

Is there anything you would add to this?

A gorgeous time in London visiting family and getting our training in! 🏋️‍♀️

2x swimming sessions. One at the lido, one in the Greenwich Centre

3x gym sessions. One lower, one upper, one full body

36,987 steps across three days

Lots of discussions about nutrition, exercise, the differences in our training styles and more. Feeling very inspired I must say!

As well as this, we also ate out and had a few drinks because balance and life 🥰 wonderful weekend ❤️

Some clips from leg day ✨

Barbell squats back in. On the first set shown, I wasn’t happy with depth through the set so I lowered the safety bars (which I should have done from the start 😂) and lowered the weight by 10kg.

Barbell RDLs - after rep 5 you’ll see me adjust my shoulder position slightly. I’m working with the imbalances I have due to scoliosis, experimenting with bracing and positioning to ensure the work stays where it should be; hamstrings and glutes.

Posting this to show that exercises can (and SHOULD) be adapted to suit your body, so you can get the most out of every set and rep. Everyone’s body is different and we work with that, not against it!
