Getting back into it…

How do you find motivation to start back being active and healthy?

It’s hard when the mornings are freezing cold and it’s dark when you come home from work.

The last thing you feel like doing is going to the gym or doing exercise when the house is warm and you want to go relax in front of the tv.

When it only seems like it was 5 minutes ago you had been shutting your laptop at work and getting ready to spend time with family and friends for the Christmas holidays.

Now 2022 is here and motivation isn’t quite at the level it was before Christmas, that’s perfectly normal!

You’ve decided that come Monday you’re going to go all in and hit the ground running?

Honestly, that’s maybe not the best way to achieve the results you want at this early stage.

My suggest would be to build new foundations/habits that last, take your time and build consistency.

Try to look at your goals for 2022 as a new lifestyle not just how much you weigh on one particular day for success

Here are some ideas/suggestions towards building back in a routine into your lifestyle:

Choose an exercise you enjoy

Plan 3x 30 minutes into your week

1-2 new habits you can easily integrate in your week

Plan in your lunch & dinners 3x per week

Hydrate well, 1-2 litres of water per day

1 day you totally switch off and have fun and unwind

“How will I find the time?”

One of the most frequent questions I’m asked about the FIT 9.0 programme and working with me.

The answer is simple, “We’ll find it together”.

I’ve worked stupidly long weeks, with hundreds of miles of driving/travel added on.

I know what deadlines are and I’ve been at the point where I couldn’t imagine shoe-horning extra tasks/responsibilities in.

Making time for myself wasn’t certainly a priority.

That was a mistake and I’ve learned from it.

Having worked the long hours and busy schedules I know how hard it is to find time for exercise, cooking dinner and spending time with loved ones

That’s why I created FIT 9.0; to help ambitious people with busy lives find the time they need to change their physical health and mental wellbeing.

To feel good every step of the way, to create small wins every week so that you’re not inconsistent but consistent!

Building positive habits that lead to BIG wins longer term.

FIT 9.0 provides online coaching at the touch of a button, workout from anywhere, anytime.

Bespoke training programme and more, all make it easier to prioritise your own health.

To a healthier, fitter body and mind.

Question is…

Where will you find the time?

Can you afford not to?

03/01/2022

First Week of 2022

Here’s to making it a year of…

Building new habits

Stepping out of your comfort zone

Goals that excite you

Letting go of what no longer brings you happiness

Taking on new challenges with courage

Traveling more often

Spending more time with loved ones

Taking your foot of the pedal and relaxing

Creating memories

Smiling, being grateful, laugh often

Prioritising your health, mind and wellbeing

When anything can be possible! 🙌

What’s the one goal you want to reach in 2022? ⬇️

Have your cake and some…

Christmas festivity’s have started, office chocolate selections boxes are open and those mince pies look delicious!

On top of…

A few cheeky drinks in the local with friends and next minute you’re partying the night away

All part and parcel of the lead up to Christmas 🎄
⁣
Worried that you’ve let all the hard work go to waste just because you’ve overindulge leading up to Christmas

Well…

You can have your cake and eat it, who doesn’t!

A few mindful changes and you can keep the results

Enjoy the festivities without the worry it’s gone to crap

Don’t sweat, try one of the examples or simply enjoy the night and start back the following day as nothing happened…

Only you had a great night out!

⁣
Dropping a few lbs, toning up, getting in shape, not seeing a drop in your weight? ⁣
⁣
Can be hard even when you’re putting in all the effort ⁣
⁣
𝗪𝐞𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐬/𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐛𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐯𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐭⁣
⁣
With the festive season in gear it’s easy to forget about watching those “𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧” around this time of year⁣
⁣
Before you know it temptation has taken over and you’ve gone all in with the office chocolates and Christmas turkey!⁣
⁣
𝐓𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐉𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐦𝐚𝐬, 𝐛𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝟒 𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬⁣
⁣
𝟏. 𝐁𝐌𝐑 / 𝐁𝐚𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐌𝐞𝐭𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜 𝐑𝐚𝐭𝐞 ⁣
This keeps you alive, your brain and organs require energy, lots of it. You burn calories standing still.⁣
⁣
𝟐. 𝐍𝐄𝐀𝐓 / 𝐍𝐨𝐧 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐬 ⁣
Walking the dog, cleaning the house, even having a shower are all non exercise activities ⁣
⁣
𝟑. 𝐓𝐄𝐅 / 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐄𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐅𝐨𝐨𝐝⁣
When you digest food, you are burning calories. This can equate to around 10% of total daily calories burned ⁣
⁣
𝟒. 𝐄𝐱𝐞𝐫𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐞 / This is what most people think burns the most calories, however…In fact exercise only burns a fraction of the calories in a workout.⁣
⁣
Why? We only workout for a small amount of time each day, perhaps you only workout 2-3 times per week?⁣
⁣
You’d need to workout for 6+ hours in one day to to make an impact on weight loss alone.⁣
⁣
Working out is amazing for your overall health but using just exercise as a weight loss tool isn’t going to get you the end result⁣

⁣
Listening to that voice that’s in my head, taking the easy option⁣
⁣
“𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘯 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺”⁣

That’s completely normal, we all lead busy lives⁣

Weight loss is a walk in the park!!

Eat less, move more… simple!

Really!?

If it was, why are we always on some form of ‘diet’

Restricting ourselves from the enjoyments we have in life can create a poor association with being…

‘In shape’

I see this often when a new client enrols in my FIT 9.0 programme, we work on…

A tailored workout program

A calorie deficit target

A 7 day structure, routine and some form of consistency

A Weekly Checkin so that we build new habits and sustainable change

Support & guidance to drop body fat, without the old philosophy of being on another yo yo diet

When the client gets in shape they learn that it isn’t just about weight loss…

But how you could start to feel & be better in every area of your life 💪🏻

This can be one of the best ways to achieve long term success with your body,health & wellbeing

Building a new philosophy, new lifestyle habits that become ‘the norm’

No more quick fixes
No more yo yo diets
No more low calorie restrictions
No more busting a gut doing boring workout routines

Just a straight forward, progressive, data driven programme that allows you to enjoy your life while getting ‘in shape’

If that’s you, I’m here to help when you’re ready 👊🏻

What does being in shape mean to you? ⬇️

Picture by photography 🙌

Having spent the last 5 years providing personal training and my own journey has given me an acute awareness of what happens when you don’t take of yourself and life becomes overloaded with responsibilities.⁣
⁣
I decided to create FIT 9.0 during Covid towards men and women over 35 years old, unable to find a way off the fast- spinning hamster wheel⁣
⁣
With a few tweaks, a little adjustment and consistency they too can put themselves first so that everyone in their lives benefits from a healthier, fitter, happier more energised self!⁣
⁣
Getting in shape doesn’t need to be super low calorie diet’s and a crap tonne of unattainable workouts 7 days a week to get a result⁣
⁣
In the grand scheme of things, 90 days doesn’t seem like a long period of time. Yet when you commit to one small change at a time, 90 days is just the right amount of time to make positive changes and lay firm foundations for a healthier future⁣
⁣
Receiving this text message from one of the FIT 9.0 graduates is a proud moment as a coach…⁣

International Mens Day

I wasn’t sure how to articulate my thoughts in this post but felt I wanted to say something towards the importance of mens health, more so mens mental health.

There is still a stigma on not talking about how we really feel, when we ask “ how are you? ” the general answer is “I’m good or fine mate”

Mental health is still a burning issue among men, the statistics are terrifying that su***de is the biggest killer of men under 45!

We have to change the stigma around talking about how we feel to each other and not brush under the carpet how we really feel. This is one of the reasons I decided to run 60 miles in 30 days for ber

I understand only too well having experienced poor mental health, in 2013 I tried to take an overdose. I’ve been on a journey to this day, through therapy to understand and accept my thoughts and emotions.

Everyone is trying to do the best they can, leading hectic lives, striving to do better than yesterday, juggling the plates of responsibility.

Together let’s change the stigma around men talking about how we “feel” That it is absolutely ok to not be ok! It is not a sign of weakness to talk about what’s going on in your world, in our minds

If you have a mate, relative, work colleague you haven’t spoke to in a while, check if they are doing ok. Life is hard, let’s support one another, lend an ear, take time out of our busy lives and be there for each other

06/11/2021

I’ve experienced poor mental health over the last several years, something which I still struggle with from time to time

I’m passionate to support Movember, a charity which is leading to support Mens Health

I am running 60 miles in 30 days and I’d be grateful if you could spare £5 and donate
