😊🐄🐄Jacob and I headed to the Southern Highlands to explore the farmland, the animals, the ecosystem and learn more about agriculture and where our food comes from and the work behind the scenes of how farmers tirelessly look after and care for their animals, rotate the animals on their land to improve animal health and rejuvenate the soil.

😊🌻🌻Belle was a wonderful guide, and we learnt a lot from her, just seeing these animals and how happy they are roaming around just made our day. It was great to get out of Sydney too! And the petrol prices were 20-40c cheaper, bonus!

🥚🥚🍳I can’t wait to try the eggs from the farm! Thanks Belle for a wonderful experience!

❤️✅Let’s go! We have a 30min semi-private PT session to get through! No breaks! - supersets work best!

😊✅Full body workout- challenging the core with the ab rollouts, the upper body - particularly the back with the pull-ups and we mixed the session up with some KB squat/core lateral walks, cable chest press and cardio - bike and treadmill!

I can’t believe we got through all of those exercises in 30min! Well done! 👍

❤️DM Desiree to enquire or to book in for your PT session or Nutrition Consultation.
I look forward to working with you to achieve your fitness and health goals!

✅ My Saturday morning is finished!

👟Reebok pump shoes who had a pair?

♥️ Let’s go back to the late 80’s early 90’s - that’s when the Reebok Pumps came out, late 80’s and they were a very popular shoe at the time. Nov 1989 they first came out and were a hit at the time for about 4-5 years.

Dee missed out on these shoes, so her partner got her a pair! She loves them!

This is supposed to be a PT session - working on exercises - isometric holds to improve tennis elbow. The training sessions and modifications to her exercise program are going well!

Did you have a pair of Reebok pumps? What was your favourite shoe in the 90’s?

❤️I know I loved my Nike Air Max shoes!

😊This dish was simply amazing as the vegetables are organic - and the chicken breast - is free range & regenerative.

😊The marinade - I refrigerated the covered chicken a half hour before it was cooked.

❤️The marinade is gluten free and is simple to make:

1/4 gluten free soy sauce
1/4 cup rosemary olive oil
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tbs honey
2 tbs Dijon mustard
1 large garlic clove chopped up finely or minced.

➡️Method - mix all the ingredients in a glass container and add the chicken breast (cut into small slices) - make sure the sauce is well mixed and covering the chicken.

✅Place into the fridge for half hour. I used a little olive oil to cook the meat and serve with steamed vegetables - beans and broccoli.

It’s great to know where your produce comes from - The chicken - is free range and regenerative- free from hormones, antibiotics and chemicals. The vegetables are certified organic and both the chicken and the vegetables taste amazing.

😊 Please support these amazing businesses! I know I will! ❤️❤️❤️

➡️ If you want to experience a great, tough and scenic marathon- the Queenstown Marathon, NZ is a must!

2️⃣ Take 2 - This photo - was my second attempt of the Queenstown Marathon as my first attempt- 2 years prior, I made a mistake that I really learnt from.

🛑 The mistake I made the first time was relying on drink stations to supply my electrolytes and not bringing enough food with me to replenish my glycogen stores. I was literally running on empty.

🤦‍♀️ What happened in my first attempt - I felt disorientated 30km’s in, I felt fatigued, like I was going to faint. I don’t know how I got to the paramedic, but I did and was driven to hospital, and put on drip. I was severely dehydrated.

🤣 The funny side to this situation was I emailed the organisers after I got back to Sydney and asked for a 21km medal as I thought I should at least get that reward as I did run 30km. And no this request was not granted, which made me more determined to complete the marathon in another 2 years.

📝📝 What I learnt about this experience - I had to bring electrolytes with me and some food, so I filled up my back back with electrolytes, not just water. I brought apricot delights with coconut with me - a few to have on the way. This helped a lot! And I made sure I had plenty of water leading up to the event and a big carbohydrate meal the night before, and this all helped in finishing my second attempt of the marathon in 6hrs. I was happy with that!

💦💦Also we are spoilt in Sydney with our drink stations - this wasn’t the case in NZ - you need to be more prepared and bring water, electrolytes, food etc with you.

🏃‍♀️🏃 My training was sufficient, I am an avid runner, and run competitively in many short and long distances, however my fluid and nutrition was not up to scratch on the day of my 1st attempt of the marathon.

😊 As an athlete, who is very competitive, my mission was to get that 42km finisher medal - but I had to reflect and learn from my previous mistakes 🙌🙌 🎖️🎖️🎖️. So going back to revisit the scene and finish in 6 hours was a massive accomplishment for me!

“Let’s do pull-ups or chin-ups before each session”, says one of my clients - Belinda!
Ok we are on! Can’t wait to see how many you do next session!

➡️Adductor, core, glute - all in one! Finishing with some pull-ups and hang for strengthening back and grip strength.

💪The cable machine is a great form of resistance training as the muscles are constantly under tension increasing muscle hypertrophy.

➡️Also the cable machine is great for a range of exercises, including working one side at a time to correct muscle imbalances.

❤️🔥The cable machine is very versatile - meaning there are so many exercises you can do with different attachments and height adjustments, which can be changed quickly - which is great for time efficiency!

💪There are so many exercises I not only add to my own program but also my clients, as using the cable machine reduces joint stress - due to the smooth, controlled movement compared to free weights. This particularly important for some of my clients who have pre-existing injuries.

Jacob - is 14, on his way to becoming a amateur boxer - I’m so proud of him! He trains so hard, and he makes pull-ups look easy. Some of us have to work at them.

Benefits of incorporating pull-ups and chin-ups in your workout:
➡️ They are a body weight exercise, which uses minimal equipment which improves upper body strength including the core.

➡️Both can be utilised in your training program for a balanced development of back and biceps.

➡️ These are functional movements- which translates into everyday activities such as climbing, lifting and pulling movements, lifting yourself up and improving posture.

➡️ Improves grip strength

🥊🥊🥊 For Jacob both the chin-ups and pull ups are sports specific to his boxing as both develop a strong back and shoulders which in turn increases punching power!
