It's around this time of year we start feeling a little guilty about what we've consumed 🍫🥂

Christmas eve, Christmas day, Boxing day...perhaps the multiple hangovers 🤣

And we've still got NYE and NYD to come 💃

Here, we believe our clients should enjoy their holidays and whatever tasty treats they eat during them!!

What's important to us is that they get back on track when they return to us 💪

It's the end of December

And typically, January is a really busy month for newcomers to the gym

So you're probably starting to think about where you want to get started

What is it exactly that you are looking for?

If its a do it yourself gym, corporate & very budget friendly gym

Then we are not for you ❌

If its a privately run gym, where you have coach led sessions, nutritional support & full accountability....we are for you ✅

January Mobility Challenge!

Join our Mobility Challenge in January!

January Mobility Challenge! Reader, Well it is that time of year, and I know I am jumping the gun a little since we haven't even gotten to the end of 2022 festivities, but...... Pinnacle Fitness will be hosting a mobility challenge starting January 16th! It will be 21 days long and will be focused on movement and healthy...

I want to lose x amount of weight in x amount of time. How can I do this?""

Our advice ⬇️

🍔 Quit the Junk Food - Seems pretty obvious but you would be surprised. Many people think if they come to the gym 3 days a week they can still eat rubbish all weekend long and get away with it. I'm afraid to tell you that often isn't the case!

📅 Plan your Week - Staying organised and planning your sessions during the week will really help with motivation and holding yourself accountable. Plus, let someone else know and then they can hold you accountable too

🚶🏼‍♂️ Up your Neat - Taking your dog for a walk, getting off the bus 1 stop early and taking the stairs instead of the escalator are all ways you can up your non-exercise activity

🏋🏻‍♀️ Weight Training - Regular sessions will improve your strength and fitness but also your posture, sleep, bone density and help to maintain weight loss and boost metabolism.

💤 Get Plenty of Sleep - Sleep suppresses hunger and signals fullness in the brain. Sleep deprivation forces the body to make more ghrelin and less leptin, increasing your appetite.

💪🏻 Be Consistent - The key to success! If you restrict yourself the chances are you will fall off the wagon and go back to your old ways. Find whatever works for you & stay consistent at it. Even if this means it takes longer to reach your goals, at least you will sustain them.

Need someone to hold you accountable?

No brainer 🧠 right?

Saturday 🎈

Who's doing a workout this morning? 💪

Saturday sessions are a favorite of ours - always great fun ❗️

Being good' vs. 'Being bad'

Have you ever realised how easy it is to consume the same amount of calories in nutritious food as it is in less nutritious food?

Sure, the avocado on toast with be healthier nutrition-wise

But the calorie comparison remains the same

⬇️

So if you're calorie counting & your aim is to lose weight

Make sure you are aware of the calorie content in everything you consume ❗️

The media is constantly telling us that carbs & sugar WILL make us fat

This is NOT true

Sure, a diet made up of sugar and carbs isn't healthy

But if you eat a nutritious diet, and control your calorie intake, then you don't need to be afraid of consuming some sugar and carbs in moderation

⬇️

If your aim is to lose weight you need to be in that calorie deficit

And this means burning more calories than you consume

We are here to promote a healthy balanced diet...no food group cutting, no absurd restrictions ❌

We often have clients come to us and explain they have struggled with their weight their entire life

And 99% of them have tried fad diets 🥲

They had lost weight temporarily, but their relationship with food wasn't any better

And as soon as they finished their diet, they put the weight back on 😩

So, how are we different?

➡️ We find what works for you

Our entire program is based around making a lifestyle change & creating healthier habits which don't restrict your happiness

And this journey starts with PT Led sessions, Nutrition Support & FULL Accountability 🙌🏻

When it's cold and rainy and your sofa seems a lot more comfortable, managing to get to the gym 3 days a week is absolutely brilliant 💪

So a massive shoutout to EVERYONE who is consistently coming to the gym

You're all doing great!!

Results are on the way 😄

Now is a more important time than ever to be supporting our local independent businesses

Christmas is close & you probably have plenty of presents to buy

So, why not buy from small businesses and really show them your support 🥰

Did you know we are an independently run gym?

Happy Sunday! 💕

Have you had a relaxing weekend?

Making a plan for next week? ⬇️
⠀
If you plan and commit to specific days you are more likely to get them DONE 🔥⠀

Aim for 3 workouts a week, and start on Mondays!
⠀
Use tomorrow as a fresh start from the weekend and GET IT DONE 🙌🏼

Our clients get GREAT results...what do they have in common?

Access to PT led sessions 🏃🏻‍♂️
Nutrition guidance 🍽
24-7 accountability & support 🤗
They work super hard 💪

Are you ready to finally take that step and make changes you have been promising yourself you would make for years?

Many of our clients come to us to de-stress...did you know exercise releases endorphins that trigger happy hormones? 🙌

We all have those times where it just feels like everything is going wrong all at once

We're here to remind you today that things never stay the same, life is a series of peaks and troughs, highs and lows ⠀

This moment will pass, and exercise will help you to feel better during both the highs and the lows 👊

What keeps our clients coming back day after day, week after week, month after month?

They ENJOY IT! 😎

Sure, it's tiring, sometimes painful and definitely hard work

But our entire approach to exercise is to make it enjoyable 💪

We are here to make sure you don't resent exercise & give it up

This is no longer a quick fix or fad diet 🙌🏽

Find the time ⏰

Many of our clients are busy - work, children, social lives...
⠀
And they STILL find the time to come & workout for 60 minutes a day at least 3 days a week 🙌🏻

Yes, this is hard...but they make sure they make it here because they love and enjoy this 60-minute break away from everyday life

Drop us a message for more information on how you can finally make a change & join our community 🥰

A quick thank-you for all of our ongoing support this year so far! 🥰

Every single like, share, comment, save, tag & shoutout means the world to us 🌍

You are supporting local jobs, encouraging the community, keeping money in the local economy

When you support a small business, you are supporting a dream ❤️

Happy Monday Everybody 🙌⠀

Christmas is very close now and we're really pleased to see everyone is still pushing and working hard

When it's cold and your sofa seems a lot more comfortable, managing to get to a session 3 days a week is absolutely brilliant. Plus, you will love it when you get here!

Have a great day!

Happy Sunday! 🤩

Are you getting ready for the week ahead? Considering a gym session first thing tomorrow morning?

Our advice? ✅

Never skip a Monday 💪🏻

Getting an awesome session completed on Monday is great motivation for the rest of the week 🔥

Another great Saturday, we’re proud of the group today. 👏💯

Setting goals (easy) AND achieving them (hard)

We've all been there, spent time working on our fitness, figuring out our nutrition, envisioning our big transformation

And then...we fall off the wagon 🥲

So, where did we go wrong? The chances are our route to achieving our goal was:

😩 Restrictive
😩 Unrealistic
😩 Boring!!

Well, this is simply not the case with us!

We guide you, support you and motivate you

Your time with us is not about quick fixes, we're going to do this the right way 💪

People join us with little self confidence in their ability to train and get fit...

This is where we come in to help 💙

Our sessions & support soon make people realise they CAN do it

Just 6 weeks with us and you will 100% be feeling proud of yourself 💪

Can you make 2023 different?

Around this time every single year, people promise themselves they will start in January and eat whatever they want in the meantime

..this is going to make your January even harder ❌

The weight gain, the self-loathing, the disappointing return to work!

⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️

Why not try working on your health & fitness before Christmas

There is still 3 weeks left for you to get into a great routine

In 3 weeks you can get at least 9 sessions done ✅

That's 9 awesome workouts leaving you feeling fitter, healthier & stronger

And ready to treat yourself over the Christmas period 💪🏻

Plus, January will be that little bit easier 🤞🏻

It's officially December tomorrow! 🎄

Who is putting their decorations up when the clock strikes 12?🎅😂

Or are they already up? 👀

We LOVE December ❗️

The countdown is on until Christmas 🥰

🤯 Worried about sticking out?
🤯 Scared you will get it wrong?
🤯 Feeling self-conscious?

3 totally normal concerns to have when you join a new facility

We get it 🥰

And this is why we do our very best to make new members feel comfortable and safe

Our program is designed specifically with people like you in mind 🙌🏻

We offer PT led sessions, nutrition support & accountability

Everything you need from us to get you great results and feeling happy and comfortable in your surroundings 👊🏻

Tip of the day:

Focus on what you need to do. Stop the comparison. Sooner or later you will reach your goals and will succeed 👊

Work hard in silence. Let the success make the noise 🙌

Sundays ⬇️

Coffee & a good book? ☕️📚
Cycle ride? 🚴
Dog walking? 🐶
Netflix? 🎬
Gym? 🏋️‍♀️

Everybody spends their weekends differently

Self care is all about doing whats best for you 🤗

Shoutout to all the hard workers - it's the weekend 🔥

Do you have trouble staying on track at the weekend?

Here are some tips:

1. Plan your meals- we can end up going off track when we have to buy lunch from the nearest petrol station or work canteen

2. Drink more water and try to stay consistent. Just because it is the weekend it doesn't mean you can suddenly eat 3 takeaways

3. If you're worried about over-eating at an event, eat before you go! (not that anyone is going to events right now 😂)

4. Not everyone wants to plan their life 24/7. Go for that meal out, enjoy yourself! Just get back on track as soon as you can

Enjoy the weekend all! 💪

❗️Tips to get you moving:

➡️ Schedule your workouts - setting a time is a great way to hold yourself accountable ⏰

➡️ Take part in a group class - having other people around to motivate you and make sure you show up is a great way to keep motivation high 👯‍♂️

➡️ Make a rule - set yourself a goal and tick them off as you go. Get one done on Monday and that's 2 left spread across the rest of the week ✅
