Derby Running Festival @ Elvaston Castle 02/08/26🏅💎

Personal bests achieved. First races completed. 👏🏻

No matter your pace, or where you’re starting from, there’s a place for you here Exertion Fitness 🖤🧡

Yesterday seeing everyone showing up for each other and watching people surprise themselves as they stepped outside of their comfort zones.

Proud of every single one of you!

💦 Hydration 💦

How do we know if we are dehydrated? 🧐
- Dizziness,
- Headaches,
- Dry-mouth,
- Chapped lips,
- Dry eyes,
- Feeling tired and lethargic,
- Feeling thirsty,
- And a decrease in cognitive function/brain fog!

Loosing fluids is easily done through sweating, bathroom trips and respiration, but replacing the fluid lost is just as easy.

A good start point to ensure YOUR body is adequately hydrated is consuming 300ml of fluid per 10kg of your bodyweight. Then add an extra 200-500ml on days we're training or generally sweating more (like the current hot weather🌞😎).

We do want most of our fluid intake to come from water, however things like milk, juice, coffee, tea and other drinks do all add to our fluid intake; just remember that drinks containing caffeine are mild diuretics, so while a few glasses a day wont hurt - we dont want too much of our daily fluid to be taken up from them!

For more help and guidance in all things training and fitness come and join our 6 week challenge!

🔥 ACCOUNTABILITY TIES COMMITMENT TO THE RESULTS! 🔥

Sticking to a workout plan or change in diet can be challenging!😪

It’s easy to blame external factors for missing your gym sessions, or skipping your meal planning/prepping for the week, or letting a small treat turn into a blow out weekend; but most people find it harder to hit their fitness goals when they don’t take accountability for their actions... whether that be something they did, or didn’t do!😅

It is a huge factor in determining the likelihood of success in all things, especially your fitness journey.💪🏼

Personal Accountability in the gym looks like:

- How many times do we get ourselves to the gym?🤔

- How hard did we push ourselves in our workout?🥵

- How well are we eating? Are we tracking it? 🍽

- Are we doing all the extra bits that help our body work its best? Like hydration, daily steps and good quality sleep?☑️

Finding a way to hold yourself accountable has several benefits, including:

-Increasing motivation📈

-Making it difficult to slack off😒

-Improve your chances of hitting your goals🏆

-Helps you see results faster🤩

A bonus of EXERTION FITNESS is our wonderful team of coaches who are on hand inside the gym, and only a message away for when you're outside the gym to help you hold yourself accountable! ✅️

If we can see you’re not pushing yourself in the gym, we’re there to boost that confidence up and encourage you to challenge yourself more, as well as be on hand during an exercise if your scared to fail!

We’re also there to hold you accountable with your nutrition!🫝🎯

Nutrition makes up over 80% of the results you see, so you can come in and dominate every session you attend...

But if we’re going home to a takeaway every night, or endless trips to the snack cupboard – then we are just taking one step forward, one step back!🫣

If you are ready to start building healthy habits and need that extra nudge for the results you want to see, come try our 6 WEEK CHALLENGE!

Most people join a gym to change their body.

But that’s not why they stay.

They stay for the conversations between sets
The familiar faces
The encouragement when motivation is low
The laughs, the challenges, the shared wins

Because training stops being something you have to do…

And becomes somewhere you want to be

And that’s what keeps people coming back 🤝🏻

Here at Exertion, we are not just a gym, we are a community 🟠⚫️
