💪❤️➡️Veronica my PT client is an inspiration. She came to see me back in July this year for PT sessions and this footage just emphasises how far she has come.

🔙🤚Veronica booked in for 2x 1/2 hour PT sessions each week back in July this year, as she was experiencing perimenopause symptoms and wanted to get stronger and fitter.

🤰🤰Veronica is a wife and mum in her 40’s juggling fulltime work and raising young children. It was important for Veronica to take charge of her health so she can keep up with her children and better manage her perimenopause symptoms.

🙌🙌Not only has Veronica achieved great results in terms of her strength and fitness, the PT sessions have improved her sleep, energy levels, and focus.

➡️Veronica has tried other exercise classes in the past, but they were either too hard or too long and she would quit. She has told me that these PT sessions are the longest exercise sessions, that she has ever stuck with, maintained and continued with. Other exercise sessions were either too hard or too long and were hatd to fit into her lifestyle.

💪💪Veronica has commied to 2 x 30 min PT, since seeing me back in July and continues to. These sessions are half hour in duration, before work and this works for her.

😊Veronica continues to stay consistent with her regular PT sessions and gives her all to each session. I feel so privileged to see Veronica’s outstanding growth in her fitness and strength and look forward to continue this journey with her.

❤️Please DM Desiree if you are looking for an experienced PT who is supportive, encouraging and meets you where your at.

➡️❤️Just show up to training! You just don’t know what you will accomplish in your session! You’ll be glad you did.

💪💪Starting back - serious training today! 40kg barbell back squat - I can lift more but it’s been a while since I’ve done this exercise and I have to work my way up again!

➡️Cable exercises for educational purposes l
➡️ As a PT working with many clients with different needs, I am always looking for different ways to challenge each muscle group or to modify exercises so that my clients can effectively work each muscle group with good technique, and pain free.

➡️ The 1st exercise I am demonstrating is a high cable single bicep curl.

💪Key points: The bicep is isolated and should be doing all the work…..
This means that the from the shoulder to the elbow should be still, also the head should be in line with spine, hips and knees, shoulders should be back and down and belly button drawn into the spine.
The upper arm should be still to contract the bicep muscle, and when extending the arm, keep the elbow joint soft.

➡️I would normally do 3 sets of 12 reps each side and 3 sets of 8-10 reps of the reverse Nordic curls. If I am working with a client, I wouldn’t give these exercises to start off with, we would build up to these, particularly if they are new to strength training or exercise or they have a pre existing injury that I may need to modify the exercise.

🦵🦵The cable assisted reverse nordic curl is a great isolation exercise to really work the quads to build strength and hypertrophy.

🦵🦵Key points: head in line with spine, chin ticked in, shoulders, hips and knees in one straight line. Squeeze the glutes and keep the abs on to protect the lower back. Shoulders should be back and down and chest up.

💪Using the cable and performing this exercise kneeling, one side at a time, will further work the core - as it’s stabilising the other side to stay straight and centred.

🛑 If your new to training, or you haven’t exercised in a while, or your coming back from an injury it is always a good idea to work with an experienced Personal Trainer if just to oversee your technique, prevent injury and to get the most out of your sessions. I guarantee you it’s worth the investment and you will reach your health and fitness goals a lot sooner!

❤️DM Desiree to book in for your PT session.

💪💪Have fun with the suspension trainer! It is a great add on tool - another type of resistance training using your own body weight as resistance. The reason why I love it, is that there are so many exercises you can do that can work every muscle group.

➡️This is a great tool also to strengthen your back and core muscles. All my clients get to use the suspension trainer in their sessions and they love it!

❤️ DM to find out more or book in for a PT session.

✋Trying to get more iron into your day. I opt for cocoa powder-organic of course - 1-2tbs added to my protein shake. Even though it’s a small amount of iron - it adds to my overall iron daily requirements.

➡️Did you know ➡️By adding 1-2tbs of cocoa powder to your smoothie, or protein shake you can increase your daily iron intake by 8-19%. It all adds up!

🍫🍫Who doesn’t crave chocolate, swapping chocolate for cocoa powder can give you that chocolate fix without the excess sugar, preservatives, additives and calories. It tastes so good with my protein shake and it stops me from buying that chocolate bar🍫!

🍫🍫In 1-2 tablespoons of cocoa powder there is 12-24 calories, compared to a chocolate bar 50g - 269 calories which has 15.2g and 28g sugar.

⚖️⚖️😊➡️1 tablespoon of cocoa powder had 0.1 sugar and under 1g of fat. What a game changer if you’re looking at losing weight or maintaining your weight.

🙌Cocoa powder is also a good source of trace vitamins and minerals such iron, magnesium and zinc and a good source of dietary fibre.

➡️Recommended iron for adult men is 8mg a day, 18mg for women, and 51+ women post menopause 8mg a day.

🙌It’s recommended to get your iron levels checked as iron deficiency symptoms can include; mood changes, fatigue, brain fog, hair thinning/loss, sleep disturbances and restless leg syndrome.
What foods or supplements are you taking to increase your iron levels.

There are 2️⃣types of iron:

1️⃣heme - from animal products which is easily absorbed by the body. Some examples include; red meat, poultry and fish.

2️⃣Non - heme are found in plant based foods (leafy greens, beans and nuts) which are not so easily absorbed by the body, however vit c foods such as oranges and broccoli can increase absorption and fortified breads and cereals.

⁉️❓How do you reach your iron levels each day?

➡️Ella is truly a standout client and deserves a standing ovation 👏👏👏👏! 🎉🎉

😊👶Ella is a mother, wife, manages a fulltime job and has a beautiful little girl that is three years of age. And gee she needs the extra energy to keep up with her active toddler!

💪💪💪Since starting PT with me in May - signing up for 2 x 30min sessions a week before work, Ella has only missed one session - she was sick.

Ella’s consistency, enthusiasm, energy with her training is getting her great results - she has lost over 6kg since she started. In just a couple of weeks into training she felt stronger - and now she feels a lot stronger, more toned and her clothes are fitting nicely! Her words!

🥗🥙Ella did have a couple of hiccups along the way with her food, she was snacking, she stopped snacking, she wasn’t tracking her food, she is tracking her food - and this is where the real results start to take shape!

💪😊❤️👏🎉The transformation I have seen in Ella is just unbelievable! Her goals were to get stronger, fitter and lose weight and she has achieved all three. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for Ella! She is a trooper!

➡️Not every client wants to be on social media. I don’t half the time, but I understand it’s part of the business and often people will seek your Instagram profile to check out if you would be a good fit as their PT! And if you could help them reach their health and fitness goals. This client of mine is anonymous but she knows who she is.

➡️This particular client - came and saw me about 3 months ago, and I encouraged her to train early mornings before work - that way she would be at her best when she trains, and will get the most out of her sessions.

➡️If she were to come after work, her energy levels wouldn’t be the same and she might find excuses not to train.

➡️She has now made her 2 x 30min PT sessions per week as a habit - 5.30am starts
➡️She has only missed one session in 3 months for a mini holiday - apart from that she always shows up a little earlier than her programmed session and trains hard!

❤️➡️She has come along way, she was very new to strength training.

➡️Her goals were to lose weight and get stronger and fitter. She has achieved all three goals and has lost 5kg.

➡️And I know working with many clients, losing the weight slowly, they are better and more confident at keeping their weight off long term.

➡️ We have worked on het diet, meal planning and she does weigh ins each week. The accountability helps her stay on track and progress from week to week.

❤️ I can’t wait to keep seeing her achievements and I am so proud of her progress! And so is she 😊

❤️ DM Desiree if you are finding it difficult to reach your health and fitness goals! And I promise to be with you every step of the way!

➡️Investing in your health and fitness should be a priority.

💪➡️ If you find that it’s hard to get started or to stay motivated to achieving your health and fitness goals then chat with me, I am a DM away.

➡️Most of my clients are not athletes, they are everyday people - that have struggled to exercise on their own and find it difficult to sustain healthy nutrition habits.
This is where I can help, I’ve been there, I know how hard it can be, but I also know with the right support and accountability you will achieve your health and fitness goals.
It’s inevitable.

➡️ I have a few spots available for 30min PT sessions between 5.30am and 11am Monday to Friday. These spots do fill up fast.

➡️30 min PT sessions are a more economical and time efficient way to engage in more then 1 PT session per week so you can see the results of your training quite quickly, with accountability and face to face coaching.

➡️ Some of my current clients have goals such as losing weight and getting stronger and fitter, and they are consistently losing weight, learning more about their nutrition and getting great results. They feel fitter, stronger, healthier and are able to increase their training sessions on their own outside of seeing me for their weekly PT sessions.

➡️ Other clients goals are to strengthen their muscles and improve their fitness and with their consistent 30 min PT sessions per week they’re are feeling stronger and fitter then ever. 💪💪

➡️ With a personalised, individual approach to health and fitness - each of my clients benefit and see results quiet quickly. They feel they have more energy and stronger, they are able to do more each day.

➡️ I am a degree qualified Personal Trainer with over 25 years experience in helping everyday people lose weight, build muscle mass, better manage their chronic conditions, get fitter and stronger, navigate healthy nutrition through proven customised programs that get results.

➡️ DM Desiree to book in for a free 15min chat to talk about how I can help you with your health and fitness goals.
