𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝘁 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲. 💪⁣
⁣
Bev has been part of Nxtep since we first opened our doors.⁣
⁣
Through Covid, busy periods and everything life has thrown her way over the years, one thing has remained remarkably consistent, she keeps showing up.⁣
⁣
And the results of that consistency speak for themselves.⁣
⁣
She’s gone from strength to strength and is now genuinely one of the strongest women we have in the studio!⁣
⁣
But what I admire about Bev goes well beyond what she can lift.⁣
⁣
She understands how important training is for her health, wellbeing and simply feeling her best, not forgetting she’s also been incredibly supportive of Nxtep throughout our journey.⁣
⁣
Outside the studio, Bev gives her own time volunteering with Smart Works, helping women rebuild their confidence and get back into employment through interview support, coaching and clothing. I always love hearing the stories about the people they’ve helped and the difference that support can make.⁣
⁣
A genuinely lovely person and an absolute pleasure to have as part of our community.⁣
⁣
No shortcuts.⁣
⁣
No six-week transformation.⁣
⁣
Just years of consistently looking after herself and becoming stronger along the way.⁣
⁣
Very proud of you, . ❤️⁣

⁣
It doesn’t begin with me handing you a workout and telling you to get on with it.⁣
⁣
It starts with a conversation.⁣
⁣
I want to understand your goals, but I also want to understand your life.⁣
⁣
Your work.⁣
⁣
Your family.⁣
⁣
Your schedule.⁣
⁣
Your training history.⁣
⁣
What you’ve tried before and, importantly, why it hasn’t worked.⁣
⁣
From there we build something realistic.⁣
⁣
Then we coach.⁣
⁣
We teach you how to train properly, build confidence, create structure and help you stay accountable when life inevitably gets busy.⁣
⁣
Because eventually I don’t want you feeling like you have to train.⁣
⁣
I want looking after yourself to simply become part of who you are.⁣
⁣
That’s when the real results start to last.⁣
⁣
We’re not trying to build the perfect six weeks.⁣
⁣
We’re trying to build something you can still be doing years from now.⁣

⁣
Today I’m spending the day with my children then I’ve boxed off some of my own training after I’ve dropped them off.⁣
⁣
Days like today are probably the best reminder of why I train in the first place.⁣
⁣
Of course I want to be strong.⁣
⁣
I want to look after myself.⁣
⁣
I enjoy pushing myself and seeing what I’m capable of.⁣
⁣
But the older I get, the more I realise that the biggest return from training happens outside the gym.⁣
⁣
It’s having the energy to run around with your kids.⁣
⁣
Being physically capable of saying yes to things.⁣
⁣
Looking after your health.⁣
⁣
Managing the pressures that life inevitably brings.⁣
⁣
And hopefully still being able to do all of those things many years from now.⁣
⁣
That’s why I don’t think fitness should ever become your entire life.⁣
⁣
It should help you get more from the life you’ve already got.⁣
⁣
I’m in the moment today. 💕⁣
⁣
I’ve trained later. 💪🏻 ⁣
⁣
And both matter. 🧡🤩⁣
⁣
Train for your life. ⁣

⁣
I was getting my own training done on Saturday morning before spending the rest of the day with some of my closest friends.⁣
⁣
And honestly, that’s a pretty good Saturday in my book.⁣
⁣
We talk a lot about discipline, training, nutrition and looking after ourselves.⁣
⁣
They’re important.⁣
⁣
But they’re not the end goal.⁣
⁣
The goal is having the energy to enjoy your life.⁣
⁣
Being healthy enough to say yes to things.⁣
⁣
Feeling good in yourself.⁣
⁣
Spending time with people who matter.⁣
⁣
And hopefully being able to keep doing all of those things for a very long time.⁣
⁣
Your training shouldn’t stop you living.⁣
⁣
It should help you live better.⁣
⁣
Get the work done.⁣
⁣
Then go and enjoy what you’re doing it for. ❤️⁣

⁣
Aidan and Stu are two people I absolutely love coaching and, in many ways, they represent exactly what our philosophy embodies here at Nxtep.⁣
⁣
Both lead incredibly demanding lives.⁣
⁣
Aidan runs an international business, managing staff, customers and all the pressures that come with running a successful company, alongside being a husband and dad.⁣
⁣
Yet he’s genuinely one of the most positive people I’ve ever met.⁣
⁣
Now Five years into training with us, fitness has become a huge part of his life. And I love that he still takes a photo of the quote on our board whenever one resonates with him. 😂⁣
⁣
Stu is a partner within the corporate finance world. His weeks can involve London, travelling around the country and regular international trips, alongside being a busy parent and everything else that comes with family life.⁣
⁣
Yet he still finds a way to show up.⁣
⁣
Not because either of these guys have loads of spare time.⁣
⁣
They understand that looking after themselves helps them perform better everywhere else.⁣
⁣
Training gives them an opportunity to switch off, reset, stay grounded and go back into everything else life demands from them feeling better equipped to deal with it.⁣
⁣
Aidan left us this review and one part really stood out:⁣
⁣
“𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘩𝘺𝘴𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘢𝘭 𝘣𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘵𝘴 𝘐 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘹𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘤𝘦𝘥 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘢 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘨𝘢𝘮𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘨.”⁣
⁣
That’s what this is about.⁣
⁣
Of course we want people to get stronger, fitter and healthier.⁣
⁣
But the real win is when those things start positively affecting everything outside the gym too.⁣
⁣
Your work.⁣

Your energy.⁣

Your confidence.⁣

Your family.⁣

Your ability to handle pressure.⁣
⁣
Couldn’t be prouder of these two. Two incredibly humble, hardworking guys and an absolute pleasure to coach every week.⁣
⁣
Keep smashing it lads. 👊⁣
