Recent post from crew member Jessica Clare

What does teamwork mean to you?

One of the things Iโ€™m starting to realise as we prepare for Great Pacific Race is that this is a challenge wayyyy too big to take on alone and you need to have total trust in your crewmates

Over the next year, weโ€™ll lean on each other for emotional, physical, and logistical support

Often, the reality of our busy lives means we donโ€™t get to train in the same city, let alone the same gym, but I love knowing that the crew are with me in spirit through training .

Last night Anna Campbell slogged it out at ICON Gym Maidenhead while I sweated it out at Digme Fitness - sure it would be better to train together, but sometimes we just have to make do

Meet Nikki ๐Ÿ‘‹

Nikki has been a member of ICON for almost a year, and despite doing traditional classes in gyms, she didn't feel like herself and knew she was putting on weight.

Fast forward to 11 months later, two and a half stone less, stronger, more toned and fitter in her 50s than she was in her 20s.

Nikki loves the community, structure and progress she made at ICON.

Meet Sheena,

Sheena has been a member of ICON for two and a half years and came in just between the lockdowns to start getting back into exercise.

She was nervous about being unfit; she wasn't sure how her body would cope after having twins, and she was juggling work and family life.

Sheena loves the community, structure and progress she made at ICON.

Regularly on our mid-morning sessions focusing on her health and longevity, she lost three stones as a side effect of enjoying exercise.

Thank you for another fantastic year together.

This year, you've attended a coached session with us over 22 THOUSAND TIMES!

Our members did a Tough Mudder, National Fitness Games, and ICON Games Challenges, lost pounds during SHRED, lifted tons during Testing, and moved through 60 different workouts.

We raised money for charity, collected food for Foodbank, and rowed for mental health awareness.

We had broken bread, shared a drink and cracked terrible jokes.

Our coaches did adventure challenges, grew a moustache to raise awareness about prostate cancer, smashed their Marathon PRs, and did the first Hyrox, Powerlifting Competition and National Fitness Games.

The team and I will see you after the celebrations and will always be in your corner.

Much love this Christmas

We're ๐—ก๐—ข๐—ง your typical gym where you pay an entry fee to use the equipment for an hour and get...

We donโ€™t have rows of treadmills.
We donโ€™t have 100s of machines.
There are no huge mirrors.
None of that.

Instead...

We coach you step-by-step through a proven system that's helped over 1,000 men and women transform their bodies.

So, if you finally want to...

โœ“ Get leaner, fitter, and stronger
โœ“ Transform your body

โœ“ Change your life

..and do it all ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ having to:

Chestnut breaking out again, really wanting to join in

26/11/2022

Today we've been open for FOUR years.
In the last four years, 1100 people trained over 76000 times.
Seventy-three thousand are Small Group Sessions; the rest comprises Online, Car Park, Pilates, Crazy Stuff with Claudia, and whatever adaptation we had to do to keep our members sane and fit.
Our Members lost weight equivalent to 4 T-Rex and lifted over 100 times that.

Our Members reversed their diabetes and improved their sleep and lifestyle, climbed a mountain for the first time, played with their grandchildren, and went on holiday without being anxious about the activities.

They all say that their quality of everyday life has improved.
Today marks four years of making better choices for yourself, for everyone who chose ICON, and for everyone who decides to take care of themselves.

Well done for choosing you by choosing us!
Thank you

Monkey Puzzle Day Nursery Maidenhead and ICON Gym Maidenhead are fundraising to install a defibrillator outside the gym and nursery.
Please support us if you can.
30,000 people die each year from out-of-hospital Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA)
If defibrillation occurs within the first three minutes of an SCA, the chances of survival increase by upwards of 80%.

We have set up a Fundraising Page (see link below) and will be hosting events in due course to raise money for our defibrillator. This will serve us and the local community.

Your support towards this fantastic cause would be greatly appreciated.

Throwback to last Saturday when we did our quarterly Games and picnic.

ICON Games is a mini tournament series in small groups that brings a sense of camaraderie, teamwork, and community through movement.

It was great to use the current weather and go outside to throw worms around.

Picnic, as the name, suggest involves sฬถtฬถeฬถaฬถlฬถiฬถnฬถgฬถ sharing people's food.

I hope you had a lovely bank holiday weekend and are ready to return to the post-summer routine.

We at ICON believe that good foundations are the key to our MEMBERS' success!

This is why as part of our STRONG & TONED PROGRAMME, we emphasise helping our clients build healthy lifestyle habits that enable them to improve their body fat levels, energy, focus and lifestyle.

Here are 7 simple habits that our clients use to get fat results and stay in incredible shape long term:

๐—ฌ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐—ฟ ๐—”๐—ฐ๐˜๐—ถ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐˜๐˜† ๐—ง๐—ฟ๐—ฎ๐—ฐ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ ๐—œ๐˜€ ๐—Ÿ๐˜†๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด

Ok, that was a little bit clickbait.

But, indeed, your activity tracker is not 100% accurate; often, theyโ€™re far from it.

So donโ€™t think because your Apple Watch has told you youโ€™ve burned 450 calories in a workout, you can eat that back afterwards. Itโ€™s not as simple as that.

If youโ€™ve worked out your calories based on a personal goal, stick to that number. Donโ€™t create a number, then treat exercise as a way to allow yourself to eat more.

In the next post, we will post a video calculating your calorie allowance.

Why not sign up for our brand new 30-Day Challenge and reclaim your best self!

Iโ€™m Always Tired

We know the feeling (literally!).

But why are you feeling this way?

Firstly, the obvious. Sleep, and you probably are not sleeping enough. Five hours is not enough for most of us, and unfortunately, we canโ€™t help if your child doesnโ€™t want to sleep, but we feel your pain!

But what about the less obvious? Think about if these might apply to youโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ‹๏ธโ€โ™€๏ธ Training hard and under recovering, applying the โ€œmore is betterโ€ principle when thatโ€™s not necessarily true. When you feel lethargic, or everything hurts, take the foot off the accelerator in the gym.
๐Ÿ’ Minimal fruit and veg intake. Yes, we should be flexible with our diet, but the basics still need to be adhered to. Get your veggies and fruits in.
๐Ÿšฐ Poor hydration. Water is a requirement. Get it in.
โ˜• Over-reliance on caffeine. Bouncing from feeling so high, you can see sounds to knackered, then drinking a coffee to fix that and repeating the cycle.

What can you do this week to have more energy?

I Ruined My Progress Over The Weekend

โ—โ—โ—
This is arguably the most common issue people face. They train regularly and eat well within the week, then Friday evening arrives, and everything falls apart over 48 hours.

Numerous factors can impact this, but here are a few things you can look at that might be causing this issue to ariseโ€ฆ

โœ” Too restrictive in the week. Youโ€™re so deprived of calories in the week that you become desperate to eat more, and when the weekend arrives, you inevitably forget your game plan.

โœ” Societal. Ordering excessively from a menu on a night out rather than sticking to a meal portion youโ€™d typically eat.

โœ” Emotional. Youโ€™re so stressed from your working week that you want to make yourself feel better, and food is the thing you reach for.

โœ” โ€œRewardโ€ - rewarding yourself for having a good week when actually this โ€œrewardโ€ is the thing holding your progress back

How Can I Fix Weekend Binges?

Following on from our last post, here are some things to consider about not being a weekend warrior.

๐Ÿ“ Track Friday-Friday.
Try starting your tracking week on a Friday. When you get to Monday, youโ€™ll see what youโ€™ve used up and your calorie allowance from Monday to Thursday.

๐Ÿ’ƒ Enjoy your week more.
Instead of being so restrictive in the week that you feel desperate to enjoy some nice food on the weekend, try being more flexible in the week. Remember, nobody is perfect. We should eat the foods we enjoy. Just not too muchโ€ฆ

๐Ÿšฐ Drink more water
Often we mistake hunger for dehydration. Make sure youโ€™re regularly drinking enough water, especially on weekends, so you donโ€™t mistake the feeling of hunger for actually needing to drink more.

Sign up to our 28-Day Challenge and never look back

A plateau is when your results stall out, and you stop seeing the progress you saw when you first started your program.

Nearly EVERYONE goes through a plateau from time to time. The good news is that if you experience one (or are in one right now), there are a few key things to pay attention to...

1๏ธโƒฃ You Are a "Kinda-Sorta" Following Your Program.

Have you started to slack on your plan? Be honest! This is one of the top causes of plateaus, and it's an excellent sign to shake things up with new recipes, workouts, or injecting some more INTENTION into the mix!

2๏ธโƒฃ Your Body is Used to Your Workouts/Plan.

This is another top cause of plateaus! The good news is this means you're fitter/healthier. It also means it's time to challenge your body differently.

Regular updates to your plan are going to be KEY to your success! A great coach can help you quickly identify small tweaks to fire up your results again.

3๏ธโƒฃ Stress, Sleep Deprivation, etc. Your body isn't a machine! It's an incredibly complex organism that functions best when it's in balance.

So many things can throw it out of balance, from being overtired to overstressed and even undernourished and overworked.

4๏ธโƒฃ You're Not REALLY In a Plateau (Part 1). If you only rely on the scale to track your results, you're missing out!

Your body could be changing in a big way, EVEN if the scale doesn't move. That's why it's important to measure other things - like the strength, how the clothes feel, or circumference measurements.

5๏ธโƒฃ You're Not REALLY In a Plateau (Part 2). If you're struggling to lose those "last 5 pounds," you might be at a weight that's healthy and natural for your body.

Losing those pounds can take extra effort โ€“ as can keeping them off once you hit your goal. Is it worth being miserable 95% of the time to be 5% lighter?

The fastest and surest way to get โ€“ and keep โ€“ your momentum going is to work with an experienced coach with a tried & tested program as you get at ICON.

I Ruined My Diet

Weโ€™ve all had those days where we overconsume calories. It happens. Itโ€™s life. We all have events to go to which are more important to enjoy rather than worry about the number of calories weโ€™re consuming.

But how we respond to that is the key thing. Just because you overate on a Saturday night doesnโ€™t mean all your progress is ruined. When you make an expensive purchase on your credit card, it doesnโ€™t mean youโ€™re financially ruined.

And itโ€™s the same with our diet; one bad day doesnโ€™t mean ruining your whole week or month. It means the next day, or whenever itโ€™s next possible, you go back to the sensible and sustainable daily eating habits you had before.

One hot day doesnโ€™t make a summer. At ICON, we teach you how to approach nutrition from a sustainable and personal perspective that frees you from dieting.

โ€œI know what Iโ€™m doing. I donโ€™t need a programme.โ€

But if you knew what you were doing, you would know that isnโ€™t right.

Often people train for years without making any real substantive progress toward goals they set along the way.

Itโ€™s the sunk cost fallacy of life. You donโ€™t want to break with a routine youโ€™ve followed for months, maybe years, because that would be accepting what you are doing isnโ€™t serving the purpose now.
It probably did in the past, but your life changed, like your goals and reasons to train.

Sure thereโ€™s something to be said for simply being active, and getting to the gym is an achievement for many. Thatโ€™s why you need to know where you are on your training path in life.

But wouldnโ€™t it feel great knowing the โ€œwhat to do today at the gymโ€ conundrum was taken care of every single time you train?

Having a coach and a programme adds accountability, offers progressions and modifications to support you, and challenges your body differently.

Just because you lacked direction in the past doesnโ€™t mean you have to keep doing it. Itโ€™s about learning from experiences.

Sign up for our 28-Day Challenge and find new direction to train.
