Gyms are opening ..again! 😝
As you may have heard gyms are officially back open as of this Friday, and I personally think that’s great news for so many reasons.
There has been so much hard work done by many people for this to happen and I’m proud and grateful to live in such a strong and united city.
Thank you to everyone who helped in the fight for re-opening our gyms, this could save many lives and help so many people.
But the fights not over just yet...
I’m pretty sure we won’t hear the last of this and they will try anything and everything to close us back down again.
So, let’s all do our part in keeping the industry alive by looking after each other, cleaning after ourselves, and if you are even the slightest bit unwell, stay home! Let’s do what we can and let’s not give them an excuse to close us down.
But most of all enjoy the reopening!
What a day!

Are you over training?
Ask yourself this… Do you feel over exhausted after workouts? 😰Are your muscles overly sore days after working out? 😖 Do you lack energy for your next workout? 🥱Are you getting weaker?👎
Then this could be an indication that you are over training. I see this so often in the gym, people maxing out every set trying to push through the pain, shaking under the weight and their bodies screaming for them to stop but they carry on and wake up the next morning unable to move or function properly for the next few days and then its deemed as a ‘good workout’.
But is it really a good workout?
I used to think that way, I thought I had to max out every set in order for my workouts to be effective. But from my many years of experience and many other peoples experience, I have established that this is not the best way and never will be. AMRAP (As many reps as possible) Should be used as a tool and used sparingly, and not a way of training!
When you workout, keep in mind that you need to recover fast and stay injury free. And over-training all the time will not allow this. You want to be able to train every day and feel on top of your game every session.
Instead of training all out and then unable to train for the next few days, think about doing a little less over more days, which will result in much more volume being done in the long run and hopefully helps us feeling strong and injury free.
Think of this as a marathon and not a sprint. Make your workouts manageable and never do too much.
If you struggle to find a good program or get the right information towards your goal then drop me a message and lets see how I can help you, today! 📥

What is an online trainer’s secret that helps clients lose body fat quickly?
It is not a secret at all…
There are 2 simple steps:
Step 1) You need to work out your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) and adjust according to goals and activity levels.
Here is the formula I use to find out exactly what that is -
Men: Your BMR= (10 x weight in kg) + (6.25 x height in cm) – (5 x age in years) + 5
Women: Your BMR= (10 x weight in kg) + (6.25 x height in cm) – (5 x age in years) - 161
Once you have worked out your BMR, then adjust accordingly to your activity level -
Little to no exercise: BMR x 1.53
Active/Moderately Active: BMR x 1.76
Very Active: BMR x 2.25
Now it is up to you to choose how many calories to consume under that amount. (Keep it manageable)
Step 2) Get a program that is made for you, to make your journey effective and get your goals sooner.
How do I get program that works for me?
Get a fitness professional to work with you and create the best program that is specific to you and your goals and get the support you need and help for every step of the way, to know the quickest and most effective way to get from A to B.
I remember when I didn’t know the “secrets” or have the knowledge or experience to understand and build an effective program. My goals seemed out of reach and hard to obtain. But with years of experience, education and trial and error I finally understood what I had to do to achieve my goals and what works for me and what doesn’t.
But you don’t have to invest years into understanding all of this, cut the hassle!
