Callum Waldron - Personal Trainer

Your cycle impacts every part of your life

Those impacts can’t be ignored

Ignoring these impacts leads to you being fed up with your training when it feels hard

All it takes is one session to feel hard before you start to think

“Why am I even bothering”

Understanding how your cycle actually impacts your training

When to expect sessions to feel harder

How to adjust your training to work with your body

When you can push hard in your sessions & up the weights

Is a must for women

p.s. your cycle is yours, it will be different to other women out there

The impacts it has on your training may be different

Fuelling your body isn’t a chore

It doesn’t have to be boring to give your body what it needs

It doesn’t have to take hours upon hours of prep at the weekend

You can have meals that you actually look forward to at the end of a day

Instead of dreading having a salad for tea again

Only to give in to your cravings & get a takeaway at the weekend

Our girls have ditched the “I’ll start again on Mondays”

And all the guilt that comes with enjoying your food

And replaced it with meals that keep them full, kill their cravings & get them results

Now imagine how you’d feel if you could do the same…

I felt so out of place at university

Studying for my degree in Strength & Conditioning

I somehow made it through a full coaching & gym based degree

Looking like I’d never set foot in a gym

At this point in my life I was what you’d call “skinny fat”

Basically a beer belly without any real muscle

Almost everyone else on the course you could tell trained

Some played sports, others were PTs & none of them felt out of place in a gym

Except for me

From the way I’m writing you’re probably thinking I was Billy No Mates on my course

You’d be wrong, lectures were always good crack & so was killing the time in-between them

No one was making me feel out of place except me

It took me so long to stop getting in my own head about going to the gym

It took me even longer to stop sabotaging myself at the weekends with takeaways & beers

It’s impossible to be consistent when you feel like an outsider

You always feel like you’re on borrowed land

Taking the first chance you can to retreat to what feels safe for you

Which is always the vices that got you were you are now & continue to make you feel worse

It took a lot to get out of this rut, to change this way of thinking

To eventually become so confident in the gym that I made it my career, my life & built Within Reach

The programme that helps women who felt all the same feelings as me

Finally feel like they have a group to belong to

Taking their goals from “impossible” to Within Reach

Secret’s out now…

Amy always told me she would never

That she’d never run

Then she started running

Told me she’d never do a race

Then she raced her first 5K at Heaton Park

Told me she’d never do more than that

Now she’s just went & ran her first 10K

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to ever do them

It was that she believed she wouldn’t be able to

Time & time again she proved that she can do it

These milestones have always been Within Reach

Whatever the next one is

Knowing Amy I guarantee that the next milestone is as well

So happy to be partnering with

A meal prep company that we have been using ourselves

Ran by two genuine & lovely people that align with Within Reach

To fuel clients training, lives & goals

Me & Becks know first hand how busy life can be

Being able to offload task where you can is invaluable at these times

I said it last week convenience beats motivation

So whether it’s coming back from a weekend away & not having to meal prep yourself for that week

Or they want a variety of different delicious meals made for them each week

Without having to prep 10 different recipes themselves

Every client now has access to affordable meal prep with an extra lil discount & free delivery

The ladies that have stated tucking into their first delivery this week are already loving it

Massive thank you to Ash & Paul of prepped for being so incredible setting this up

Me & all the girls appreciate you two 🩵

Another medal to add to their collections!

Amy running her first ever 10K

To think the girl told me she’d never ever run

Ansaya & Rebecca completing their second half marathon of the year

Proud of you all for your work getting ready & effort you put in today

Now go enjoy some good food & a few drinks!

Love from your loudest cheerleader

(my throat will be tender tomorrow)
