Start the week as you mean to go on. Move! Even if you just go out for a brisk walk. Or try a short run but with some short intervals along the way. Plan! Why not plan your week both in terms of what exercise you will do each day or every other day and what will you be eating? Make it clean and fresh and I can guarantee you will feel loads more energised. Have a good week!

What a beautiful morning for Bootcamp today. Tad bit chilly but we soon warmed up. Well done, great effort today. A mix of resistance combined with some cardio drills. Lots of equipment today - Kettle Bells, Slam Balls etc along with body weight resistance for a full body workout. Might be some sore triceps and shoulders tomorrow morning! Have a good week and see you next Tuesday at Bootcamp.

Thanks all for braving Bootcamp today! Despite the rather soggy conditions (the show must go on!), you worked hard with lots of burpees and some challenging exercises for the core today. The stronger your core, the less chance of injury and the fitter you will become as you'll be able to perform exercises more efficiently. Short on time, try a plank series, holding each move for 30 seconds. Start with a forearmed plank, into an extended plank hold with shoulder taps, back to a forearmed plank hold, into another extended plank hold but with renegade row, back to a forearmed plank hold then a final extended plank hold with toe taps. 3 minutes of work per day and you'll start to see and feel the difference.

Some key points in this article. I agree that preparation is key for sticking to good habits and especially when we all lead such hectic lives. The other point he makes about not skipping meals is crucial to keeping well and fit. Skipping meals effects how well and quickly you metabolise food. The less you eat, the more sluggish it becomes so kick start it by eating 3 good (healthy & balanced) meals a day and snacks in between. You'll also find that that your energy levels will increase meaning you can work out for longer or harder!

Keep motivated over the weekend. Try this quick 25 minute HITT session. Choose 6 exercises (squat jumps, mountain climbers, high knees, press ups, lunge jumps, burpees). In round 1 complete each exercise for 20 seconds with a 15 second recovery in between then complete all 6 exercises again but in reverse. Round 2, repeat the same process but reduce the recovery period to 10 seconds. Third and final round, same again but reduce the recovery period to 5 seconds. A fast and effective way of keeping fit and working off any weekend indulgences! Have a good weekend.

Great Bootcamp today. We focused on Pyramid Interval Training, starting with 60 second intervals, working our way down to 20 second bursts. This is a challenging form of training, incorporating the benefits of both intensity and endurance. Try it with strength training too, by varying both the weight and reps for a particular exercise; when you increase the weight, you decrease the reps and vice versa. Have a play around with different styles of pyramid training based on your goals & abilities. Bootcamp every Tuesday: 9,15-10am at Kings Tennis Club
