Ellie Finlay - Women's Weightloss Coach

Missed a few workouts? You don’t need to start over. 🤍

You haven’t ruined your progress. Just pick up where you left off and keep going.

Consistency isn’t about never missing a workout — it’s about not letting one missed workout turn into giving up.

Save this for the next time you need the reminder. 🫶🏼

Going heavier isn’t always the answer. 💪🏼

Before increasing the weight, make sure you can:
✔️ Maintain good technique
✔️ Control the weight
✔️ Complete your target reps

Then challenge yourself.

Progressive overload doesn’t mean throwing more weight on every week — it’s about gradually challenging yourself while still moving well. 🤍

Motivation isn’t going to show up every single day.

Some days you’ll feel excited to train, and some days you’ll really have to talk yourself into it.

That’s normal.

Instead of relying on motivation, build a routine that fits your life and is realistic enough to stick with. 🤍

Lifting heavier doesn’t always mean progress.

Getting stronger can look like:

• More reps with the same weight
• Better technique
• More control
• The same weight feeling easier
• Eventually, lifting more weight

Progress isn’t always about adding more to the bar. 🤍

You don’t need to rush through your reps to have an effective workout.

Slow down, control the movement and focus on your technique.

It’s not about how quickly you can get through your workout — it’s about making the reps count. 🤍

Save this as a reminder for your next workout.

A stronger plank isn’t about holding it for longer - it’s about good technique.

Next time you plank, focus on:

✔️ Slightly tucking your pelvis.
✔️ Squeezing your glutes.

These two simple cues can help you find a stronger, more stable plank. 🤍

Whether you’re doing a seated row, single-arm row or bent-over row, try focusing on:

✔️ Pull your elbow towards your hip.
✔️ Finish by pulling your shoulder blade back.

Slow the movement down and focus on quality over quantity. 🤍

One simple cue can completely change how an exercise feels.

For Romanian deadlifts, I tell almost every client to push their hips back first.

It helps you hinge properly, load your glutes and hamstrings, and keeps the movement controlled.

Motivation comes and goes.

The women who make progress aren’t motivated every single day - they’ve built habits they can come back to, even when they don’t feel like it.

Focus less on waiting for motivation and more on creating a routine you can stick with. That’s where long-term results come from 🤍

So many women tell me they want to feel more confident before joining a gym.

The truth is, confidence doesn’t usually come first.

It comes from showing up, learning new skills, and realising you’re capable of more than you thought.

You don’t have to have it all figured out before you begin 🤍
