Meet a Gym Legend 🏆

The legends just keep on coming 💪

Thank you Clare for the lovely words and for choosing me to help you get back to fighting fit 💪

Clare has always been a regular in gym classes and incredibly fit and strong, but sadly a couple of years ago fell victim to severe and incredibly debilitating back pain, she was bed ridden for weeks 😢

When Clare could finally get back to exercising she wanted to make sure that could never happen again and was aware of the importance of strength training but like so many, was pretty scared of the weights area.

Now, like so many, she has turned that fear into a love and is very much a regular on the weights floor.

Clare has come so far, overcoming her back pain and rebuilding and becoming a strong and competent AND confident Gym Legend 🙌

I’m so happy I could help her overcome her back pain and help her build to where she is now, it’s such a great thing to see someone once scared of freeweights to now be in the room with such confidence and discipline, working hard keeping themselves strong 👏

Well done again Clare and thank you 🙏

Meet a Gym Legend 🏆

Love this from Lucy 🙌

Lucy was definitely a committed class goer and always worked very hard, but she was not convinced by the weights area and it really was going against the grain for her. Weight lifting is completely different from classes and it was a huge adjustment for Lucy, she definitely needed some convincing!

But look at her now 💪 🔥

She loves weightlifting and the weights area, she has no problem being smack bang in the middle of it all and getting her workout done, she is well and truly a convert 🙌

Nothing makes me prouder and happier than seeing someone who never thought they’d succeed in the gym, now be in the thick of it, strong, independent and confident and equipped with all the tools they need to succeed and achieve and maintain their goals.

I feel very proud and pleased for Lucy, she’s worked so hard and her happiness and motivation is unwavering, I’m so pleased she’s found a place for herself in the weights area

Well done Lucy 👏

Meet a Gym Legend 🏆

Continuing to celebrate Jo and all her hard work and incredible progress 🔥

I’m quite gobsmacked at how different and how incredible she looks now!

Jo has always worked hard in the gym but diet was always something she just couldn’t get a handle on, which is where Mounjaro has helped her control her intake and make the important and healthy changes to her diet that she needs to in order to support her health, fitness and goals.

It has certainly not been a cheat sheet or a shortcut, Jo has still had to stay committed and work incredibly hard in the gym, and make the right food choices.

Jo is proof that big change is possible if you work hard for it and stay committed.

Well done again Jo and thank you for the kind words too! 🙏

Meet Gemma, another Gym Legend 🏆

Gemma suffers with Hypermobility Spectrum Disorder, so she suffers with almost constant dislocation’s

The most severe injury she’s been dealing with the last year is a bad ankle which she sprained at the beginning of last year, but due to her condition it hasn’t been like a normal sprain and has taken an incredibly long time to recover due to the inherent instability of her joints. Along with this she’s suffered with regular shoulder dislocations, which as you can imagine can be incredibly painful.

But Gemma has gone from strength to strength and whilst her condition will always cause her problems from time to time, dislocations are now much less common and her ankle whilst still sometimes troublesome is so much stronger and stable now which has given her the strength and confidence to get back to a more active lifestyle and push her body further again.

Gemma’s condition means she has to stay strong and build muscle to mitigate the negative effects of severe hypermobility and lead a more normal life, and she is doing so well and her commitment is unwavering even when she suffers a setback, she is never downbeat and always smiling and laughing - a positive mental attitude counts for a lot when you’re recovering

Well done Gemma and thank you for the kind words! Just glad I can help 🙏

One key piece of advice for Gym Newbies 💡

Keep it simple

It’s very easy to get caught up in fads and crazy routines and weird workouts when you’re new to the gym and health and fitness in general

The best thing you can do when starting out is keeping it simple and sticking to the proven basics -

Good sleep
Varied and balanced diet
High protein intake
5-10k steps a day
Gym 2-4 times a week
Foundational movements ie squat, lift, press, pull, core strength

You don’t need to do anything crazy, these basics will carry you most of the way and are certainly all you need to focus on when first starting out.

So don’t try anything trendy or extreme or complex or just OTT, stick with what everyone knows works, it may not be particularly sexy or exciting, but it works, and it’s what’ll help you achieve your goals.

3 things Gym Newbies should focus on

If you’re not getting these 3 basics right, it’s going to make progress a lot harder

🛌 Sleep is the foundation of everything, if you’re not getting enough, good quality sleep your training will be severely hampered

🥩 30g of protein per meal is a widely regarded decent minimal amount of protein that will support muscle growth. Ideally you want to be aiming for 1.5 - 2 grams of protein per kg of your bodyweight. But if that would be difficult to hit or you just simply aren’t going to track your intake that closely, a simple goal of 30g of protein per meal is a great place to start. Protein is also very satiating so will keep you fuller for longer, so might prevent you overeating or snacking later in the day.

💧 2-3 litres of water a day is a must. It goes without saying how important water is, consider it like oil in your car engine - without sufficient oil your engine won’t run smoothly and optimally, the same goes for water and your body, especially when exercising.

Nail these 3 things and you’ll be laying strong foundations for your future progress 💪

Meet a Gym Legend 🏆

Thank you Tony Tony Hakanson for the lovely and, um, honest testimonial 🤣

If you know Tony, you’ll understand his humour (last paragraph)

But on a serious note, I love working with Tony, our sessions are full of laughs and good chat but not without incredibly hard work from Tony.

Tony has come so far, when we first started working together he was literally being crippled by back pain, having to stop workouts and exercises classes short because of sudden attacks of serious back pain.

Now, if you ever see him around the gym, he’s smashing it 💥 his strength is through the roof and nothing stops him, no matter what I throw at him. His back is resilient now and it’s enabled him to achieve so much in the gym, and I’m so proud of him and his continued hard work, discipline, dedication and unwavering sense of humour and happiness.

Thanks again Tony, let’s keep pushing forward 💪
