Caitlin Thoomes Personal Training

Can’t really put it into words how proud I am of Jess, last night we hit her lifetime goal of deadlifting 100kg and made one more jump and got 105kg! 🥰

We worked for it over 17 weeks of different variations from clean deadlifts, paused deadlifted and deficit deadlifts, we did a mini test back in may when it was feeling good and are now going into a 9 week cycle to get that number higher or even with cleaner form!

If you’ve ever wanted to get stronger or just get into the gym, I’m now working out of Aether Gym, we are a community based gym which focuses on your health and being your best self, either send me a personal message or find out more about us at www.aethergym.com/transformation

The fitness industry sometimes likes to collectively suggest that losing weight is a pretty straightforward science. But despite what you might hear, you losing weight is NOT as simple as a calorie deficit (consuming less energy than you’re burning).

Before we proceed, it has to be acknowledged that a calorie deficit will in almost all cases yield weight loss. But here’s the problem - we are dealing with human beings, not machines. We might have all the scientific evidence and perfect methods in the world, but it doesn’t mean anything until its applied.

The thing is, we aren’t robots that you can plug and play perfect nutritional strategies with. We have stress, relationships, bad days at work, struggles with motivation, social plans, troubled relationships with food and ourselves, or a million other things that can make the ‘perfect diet’ challenging. And that means that even though the numbers we are meant to eat might promise great results, there are some really big external factors that need to be addressed to really make things work.

Is the way that you are eating working for you? Does it fit the lifestyle you lead, or do you really struggle to make health fit in with the rest of your life? If you can’t seem to get your food in order to support your goals, we might need to start looking at the bigger picture, because this shouldn’t all come down to a calorie deficit, hard work and willpower.
