As you go about your day today - mentally pick out one hundred things that you love;

❤️ I love my home.
❤️ I love my family.
❤️ I love the sunshine, I love the rain.
❤️ I love that I get to workout in a beautiful woodland.
❤️ I love that my body can run and jump.
❤️ I love my workout friends.
❤️ I love dogs.
❤️ I love my coffee in the woods.
❤️ Etc ….

A powerful frequency-shifter; when you shift into a space of gratitude you retrain your brain’s focus away from what is negative, stressful or missing and redirects it towards what is positive, good and supportive.

❤️ I love that my body can fall down and get back up again (burpees!)

The more frequently you practice this, the easier it becomes for your brain to naturally spot the positive details in your daily life. It doesn’t mean ignoring life’s challenges, nor does it mean pretending to be happy all the time - it simply means acknowledging that alongside the hard things, good things exist too.

❤️ I love these woods.

"Lift Slow, Run Fast" was the title of todays class;

Controlled tempo in lifting ensures your muscles are doing the actual work instead of momentum and gravity taking over. Controlled lifting protects your joints and connective tissues and it’s the time under tension that triggers muscle growth and tendon strength.

Fast running, (sprinting) builds a strong heart and increases muscular power in your legs and strengthens your bones.

However fast you run, however heavy you lift, the most important part is turning up. Consistently. Make it non negotiable, it’s in your diary, and you are going, even when you don’t feel like it.

Motivation is an emotion and it comes and goes, but discipline is a system that keeps you moving when you don't feel like it. When you rely on routine, rather than emotion you take control of your goals.

It’s a non negotiable routine, not a mood based choice. Acknowledge that you might not feel like it, that you might feel tired, you might be busy, but remind yourself that your feelings do not have to dictate your movements, and show up anyway.

And remind yourself of how great you feel once the class is done!

Todays Session was titled “Simply Strong”

Do your workouts make you stronger? Or just make you tired?

After the age of 30, for men and women alike, our bodies begin to lose muscle mass and strength - at a rate of roughly 3% to 8% per decade - and that speeds up after 50

Strength drops faster than size, about three tImes faster, which means you’ll be weak and fragile before you even notice.

Time is precious, time is limited, and time is ticking, so you must work smart to slow this natural decline, to maintain muscle mass, and bone density, to stay mobile, independent, to regulate your blood sugar and insulin sensitivity and to add healthy, active years to your life.

The only way to beat the ageing clock and stay capable is to;

LIFT WEIGHTS - (but also, remember to eat your protein and prioritise good quality deep sleep.)

Controlled, consistent and progressive weight training is the key to healthy longevity.

What you choose today, decides your future [weak & fragile or strong & capable] - If you are not actively building muscle, then you are losing it.

Decades of being told our bodies need to look a certain way to be acceptable means we have learned to judge ourselves by appearance alone.

We internalise an outsiders perspective of our physical body. We treat ourselves as objects to be evaluated by others, strongly influenced by society, media, and social media we focus on our physical appearance above all else.

Women and girls, men and boys alike are all increasingly effected by external pressures to look a certain way; Thin, youthful, muscular or lean …

Even when we are doing something powerful - like deadlifting three quarters of our own body weight, we will see a photo of ourselves and think OMG just look at my double chin … Or we achieve a step up to a thigh high box and all we see a belly roll …

Stop there - A simple mindset shift could change everything - Try not judging what your body looks like, but appreciating what it can do.

These unedited, unfiltered images of real people show what a strong, capable, powerful body can do.

It might look like we’re just messing around in the woods, but these functional strength workouts really build resilient bodies. Functional Fitness for healthy longevity.

If you have ever apologised to a plant for hurting it, moved a tiny creature out of harms way, if you have ever quietly thanked a tree for it's shade, noticed the first blackberries, stopped to listen to the birds, if you still collect feathers or pine cones, if you are aware of how few elderberries there are this year …

and, if you want a strong, healthy, capable and robust body, then message now for details on how to join us.

Wednesday Ladies; 9.30m every Wednesday.

“No Cop-outs here, just solutions”
- Miss Molly S

Well said!

🌳 🌲 💪 🏃‍♀️ 🏃‍♂️

A cop-out is a weak excuse, an evasion of responsibility, the backing out of a difficult commitment, an action of quitting, backing down or failing to face a challenge.

A solution is an action, a plan, or an idea that successfully resolves a problem.

Sore shoulder or elbow, poorly finger, aching knees, broken wrist, chasing rabbits - these are all cop-outs!

And there is always a solution;

A wall sit if you can’t squat. Body weight exercises, or a weighted vest if you can’t hold anything, seated exercises - alternatives, regressions and progressions at every class and session.

Focus on what you can do and get it done.

No Cop-outs!

A Chiropteran Safari:

The word Chiropteran is derived from the Latin word Chiroptera, coming from the ancient Greek words cheir (meaning "hand") and pteron (meaning "wing"). It literally translates to "hand-wing," which perfectly describes how a bat's wings are formed by a thin membrane stretched between their elongated fingers.

Bats have been on earth for more than 50 million years and there are now more than 1,500 different species.

The UK is home to 18 species - only two of these hang upside down, most roost in crevices, squeezing into tight dark spaces where they can rest, safe from predators.

The only mammals on earth capable of sustained, powered flight, they navigate and hunt for insects in the dark by emitting high-frequency sounds and listening to the echoes that bounce back.

After an amusing and information talk by Matthew Terry, from https://www.worcestershirebats.org.uk/ armed with Bat detection devices and night vision binoculars we set off an a dusk walk;

Our woods turned out to be a great location for seeing and hearing bats.

Matt was able to positively identify the Common Pipistrelle, the Soprano Pipistrelle, the Daubenton’s Bat and the Noctule.

There may have been Whiskered bats, Leisler’s bats, and Brandt’s bats, but Matt is unable to say for absolute certainty.

If you’d like more information on these and other bats, take a look at https://www.bats.org.uk/about-bats/what-are-bats/uk-bats

Thank you Mat @ https://echolocate.co.uk/ we all loved the experience.

Some of the best therapy is free; trees, sunlight, the sound of bees humming, birds singing and butterfly’s fluttering by.

Our Functional Fitness Training sessions are not free, but unquestionably well worth the money, with so many additional benefits - so much more than just a physical workout.
