Reflecting on one year as in sport rehab, all the places I’ve been, all the opportunities I’ve been given.

You could say I’ve got myself where water wouldn’t…

Safe to say this year has flown by and I’ve had a blast, here’s to more opportunities and experiences.

If you’ve been coached by me then you’ll have heard time and time again that the key to being consistent is holding yourself accountable, holding yourself accountable to training, keeping yourself active and choosing a balanced diet.

At the end of the day you’re responsible for your own success, but how can you hold yourself accountable?

-Hire a coach/PT
-Train with a friend
-Start a progress log/food diary
-Tell your peers about your plans/goals
-Set short term goals
-Celebrate the small wins

The list is endless! If you’re not sure what keeps you going everyday, keeps you responsible for yourself then drop me a message and we can work it out together.

✨ Happy September everyone ✨

Here’s a short dumbbell flow to get you moving this hump day!

Dumbbell/Kettlebell flows are a great way of combining all the fundamental movement patterns (push, pull, carry, hinge, squat) in one session whilst still being time effective.

You can make a flow as long or as short as you wish meaning you can have all 5 movements trained in 30 minutes.

Intensity of this workout can also be easily adapted by choosing dumbbells as heavy or as light as you wish without all the faff of loading a bar up. Chose your intensity wisely.

Now I’m not saying DB/KB flows are going to be the key to your success but they’re a damn good way to get yourself moving whilst adding some resistance to your sessions.

This particular flow included:

X5 DB cleans
X5 RDLs
X5 Front squats
X5 Bent over rows
X5 push ups

As few or as many rounds as you have time for!

So whether you’re just looking to get yourself moving, needing a bit of a deload or just fancy trying something new, give this a go.

Starting this week off with an exercise of the week.
BARBELL HIP THRUST.

The hip thrust is undoubtedly one of the most important compound exercises in building the glutes, improving core stability, and increasing sprint speed.

Studies show that the hip thrust provokes high levels of Gluteus Maximus activity, however altering foot positions, and knee angles shows differing activity levels of the muscles associated with the knee (quads and hamstrings).

It is important to note that Glute Max activation levels are highest at 0° of hip flexion (at the bottom of the lift) so although a pause/ big squeeze at the top may not hinder our performance, if we’re aiming for maximal glute max work with time under tension, we are best focusing on the eccentric portion of the movement and slowing the tempo down.

A common myth, is that if we have our feet too far forward then we are working hamstrings over glutes. Whilst decreasing the angle of the knee does activate the hamstrings and increasing the angle of the knee activates the quads, this DOES NOT reduce glute max activation levels. The hip thrust has actually shown greater improvements in hamstring strength than a back squat.

Have a look at the video above and keep some of these form tips in mind for optimal hip thrust performance.

Happy glute building everyone 😊🏋️‍♀️

Let’s talk progress, making progress, tracking progress, progressive overload… Basically everything in between us setting a goal, and reaching it.

Now to even start making progress, you need to have a goal to progress towards. We all have that one long term goal of a dreamy summer bod ready for our holidays, but what about the short term goals in between?? Setting yourself weekly, fortnightly, monthly goals are baby steps towards our long term ones. These goals could be as small as drinking enough water each day, or hitting your step count. We’ve all heard the saying “pennies make pounds” and I guess you could say the same goes for fitness.

The next step in making progress is sleep… Are you getting enough sleep?
You probably don’t realise this but by not getting enough sleep/ having a poor sleep you’re slowing down your progress. The recommended amount of sleep for an adult is 8-9 hours per night (a luxury for some I know). To put it simply, adequate sleep means improved brain function, so greater capacity for daily activities I.e. getting your session in or going for a stroll.
You wouldn’t leave your phone off charge with low battery so why aren’t you charging your brain?

Another key factor in making progress is consistency… summer bodies aren’t made in one day and all that malarkey, but that’s the truth. Consistency leads to habits and making training, eating correctly and staying active a habit is guaranteed to lead us to reaching our goals right?
Even if you put aside 90 minutes of your week for exercise then you’re 1 step closer to becoming consistent. Without consistency the body has a hard time adapting to training. 1 set of bicep curls never made anyone into Mr Olympia just like one donut never made anyone fat, it just goes to show that you don’t really make any progress unless you do something consistently.

Final tip for progress is being patient. It takes years of hard graft to achieve what a Mr Olympia does; but your goals whether it be to shed a few pounds or build some major muscle can take you as long as you need. If you’re consistent, making healthy habits, trusting the process and being patient.
