Transform your body at ForestFit’s eco-friendly, private Personal Training Gym. The specifics are unimportant. I still can’t believe it.

In April 2011 I experienced one of those events that change everything: you’re laid off from work, a family member dies, a relationship ends. I knew as it was happening my life was about to drastically change, but I never knew it would start with my body – and in a positive way. Training alone, the combination of diet and exercise meant within just three weeks I lost nearly 30 lbs, and by week seven I had lost over 40 lbs! Until eventually, after twenty weeks, I had lost a massive 70 lbs (5 stone)! I would go on to lose a further stone, totalling to a 6 stone of fat loss. From here I took my body, which was now a skinny 10-stone (or less!) and changed my routine once again to add a huge 4 stone of muscle. As your personal trainer you can be confident knowing that I have been in your position whether you are overweight and looking to lose a few pounds or underweight and looking to put on some muscle - I have been there and experienced what you are going through. I will tap into your body and create a new lifestyle that is completely personal to you! No template plans with me; everything I build is completely for your unique body, work & family schedule and your goals so that we achieve the best results! Email me today and change now:

The new equipment has been thoroughly enjoyed this week - I hope you have all loved it so far! Also, aggressive cutting diet is starting to show its benefits but more work to do, always.

STOP BUYING WHEY PROTEIN
And yes, I am giving into a little clickbait here — my most humble apologies!
I’ve had more and more clients asking me recently which whey protein I buy. And my answer, for the last couple of weeks, has been: none. NOT because I think whey is bad. I still think it’s a great source of protein, it’s convenient, quick, and can absolutely have a place in a diet for building muscle and losing fat.
But at £30–£33+ per kg, I don’t think the value is there anymore.
For example, £6.15/kg chicken breast means roughly £1.23 for 200g — and more than 60g of protein.
To get a similar amount of protein from whey at current prices can cost around £3.30, depending on the brand and serving.
MyProtein £3.30
Bulk £2.70
Optimum Nutrition £3.97
I used to buy whey because it was cheaper than food + incredibly convenient.
Now the numbers don’t stack up.
So what happened? Why has whey become so expensive? Raw milk and dairy processing costs, energy, transport and global demand have all played a part, some sources claiming the rise of people taking fat loss injections causing the demand increase — but the end result is the same: it isn’t the bargain it once was.
I’m not saying never buy whey.
But we need to look at the numbers.
Will you carry on buying whey protein this month?

Weird training continues 🤪 — I’ve been finishing every other workout with some very “interesting” neck exercises. It’s a good, fun contrast to my normal, preferred training style - and who knows, maybe we will some interesting change around my neck and traps! Aiming to have a neck the same width as my head 😂

Retaining muscle with some heavier work at the start of my workouts this week. Deadlifts, flat bench press, squats — and today some standing barbell shoulder press. Giving my body a reason to have to keep hold of muscle while cutting back. Feeling great, despite what my face may look like in any of said workouts 😆

I had to go slightly rogue with the exercise choice for this reel because we are lucky enough to get to enjoy a brand new track this weekend at the with its — Just a bit of fun, let me know how it feels! And, even better, this exercise you can do from home!

Recently I showed you one of Yvonne’s incredible transformation comparisons, but here she is in action - doing the work that gets those amazing results. We went over a big collection of exercises so that would have more exercises to work on at home with her kettlebell.

Really pleased with an old school legs workout today at the ForestFit private gym. Leg extensions, squats, hamstring curls, leg press, stiff-legged deadlifts, leg press and calf press. Very decent and thorough session 💪 Feeling great, may report differently in the coming days…

Single-arm dumbbell chest press with a bridge - for extra core and glutes while improving chest, shoulders and triceps. Big bang for your buck with this exercise! Your core has to compensate for just using a weight on one side and glutes and core have to tighten up to keep you firm in the tricky bridge position.
