Sometimes we train for life. Sometimes we train for a specific event. What are you going to train for in 2026? 😉

There will be no circuits class on Sunday this week. Instead I would like to invite you to join me at the Levengrove Junior Parkrun (Dumbarton). I’m taking my two. I find my kids are always more receptive when they have pals 😅.

And we also get to support a friend ❤️xx

A Special Sunday at Levengrove Junior parkrun this week.
This Sunday we're marking two meaningful milestones that are deeply connected to our parkrun's story.

We were inspired by a young runner called Felicity to set up Levengrove junior parkrun. We reached out to the Chris Smith Memorial Fund, who helped fund our start-up and made our dream a reality.

This year marks the 5th anniversary of Chris Smith's passing, and the CSMF have invited people to take part in a run or walk in his memory. This Sunday we'll be celebrating Felicity completing her 100th junior parkrun - a remarkable achievement from the runner who inspired it all.

We're delighted to welcome Chris's family to the park as we mark this double milestone. It's a poignant reminder of how one family's generosity and one child's love of running created something special for our whole community.

All welcome this Sunday.
Warm up 9.20am,
Walk/run/jog 9.30am

Come and be part of our story.

Hi I’m Barbara, a personal trainer and nutrition coach based in Milngavie. I have two young children and spent many years working in an office. My background is in running (lot of marathons 😅) and triathlons.

I have some spaces available for one-to-one coaching. I work from a private gym in Milngavie so sessions are usually pretty quiet. I can also see people at home.

I can help you with:-
💪 general training to help you feel fitter/lose weight
💪 gaming your training to the next level if you feel you have plateaued
💪 training for a specific event (marathon, triathlon, cycle etc)
💪 keeping active during pregnancy or getting back in shape after
💪 getting started with weights
💪 training with specific health conditions (autoimmune diseases, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, thyroid issues, arthritis, ADHD, joint replacement and others)
💪 functional strength to protect you as you age and keep you living independently as long as you can

DM for a chat to explore how I can help you on your journey 🌟

I am so proud of a client this morning- she came in tired from a really busy period at work and has a lot going on in her family life too- she could easily have skipped this morning and had a lie in. But she didn’t.

She came in grumpy and left smiling and in a better place. What more could I want for her?

This is just a wee reminder- get up and move! You will feel better for it. 😃

💪 you are unlikely to regret doing a workout
💪 who cares how fast/slow you go or how heavy/light you lift
💪 who cares if things aren’t perfect
💪 who cares what other people think

The simple act of moving carries so many benefits with it. The trick is to find something you enjoy and stick with it ☺️Having a goal also helps. If you’re not sure, give me a shout and I’ll help you get started.

Have a great weekend 😎

Did you make a new year’s resolution that you would start lifting weights?

Would you like to and don’t know where?

Or have you started and still struggling?

Lifting weights is great for improving strength, power and general all round health. And you are never too old to start 💪

If you would like some help on your journey, I have some spaces for 1-1, 2-1 or small group coaching plus also some bootcamps running. DM for more info 🏋️
