🥵Being a PT during a heat wave🫠

Is there a tougher job during a heat wave?!!

Suggestions in the comments 👇🏼

👀 I see your potential, even if you don’t⭐️

I’ve experienced this so many times…
Clients start having little or no exercise experience, low confidence and underestimate their own abilities.

Understanding the progression of exercises and individuals’ ‘next steps’, week on week they become fitter, stronger more flexible and more confident in what their bodies can do💪🏼❤️🙌🏼🥳

It’s amazing process to be a part of.

I’ll have a few PT spaces available next month, so get in touch if you’re interested in seeing what you can do.

⭐️Same goals, different approaches⭐️

We’re all different.
Different personalities.
Different families.
Different preferences.
Different skills.
Different budgets.
Different time.
You get it…

So, when it comes to nutrition, often we try to implement things we’ve seen or heard from others, but in reality, it’s harder than we anticipated.

Sitting down with someone and working out a way that’ll work FOR YOU could change everything.

Don’t think you should have all this figured out on your own. I still feel bamboozled by some things when it comes to nutrition…that’s why stripping things back to basics is a great place to start.

Message me ‘power hour’ if you’d like more info about these sessions.

⭐️Personal Nutrition Power Hour⭐️

No more guessing what you should be eating.
No more trying new diets and fads.
No more copying what others do online.

Time to sit and chat about YOUR nutrition.

Because one size definitely doesn’t fit all.

What are your goals?
Why are you struggling?
What foods do you enjoy eating?
What is your food budget?
What have you tried before that worked/didn’t work?
What do you need help with right now?
What can we plan together?

👆🏼A few examples of things we can discuss - but all sessions will look different bcos you are all different 🫶🏻

The aim of the power hour:
ARRIVE WITH QUESTIONS AND LEAVE WITH CLARITY & A PLAN

Message me ‘power hour’ for available slots (very limited!) or for more info.

😱A big moment in my house😱

One thing my kids definitely turn their nose up at are leafy greens!
❌Spinach
❌Cabbage
❌Broccoli
❌Sprouts etc

But, that is never going to stop me offering them and putting them on their plates and in their dinners.

I always say they can pick out whatever they don’t want to eat, but sometimes they get curious and have a few bites (or they can’t be bothered to pick them out!).

I’m the one cooking, I choose what I cook and serve, they choose what they eat.

Taking the pressure out of meal times gives space for curiosity, playfulness and discussions around food.

I’m also honest about the fact I don’t really like certain foods, but I eat them bcos I know they do good things in my body.
DOES ANYONE REALLY LIKE SPINACH ON ITS OWN?!

Hope this is helpful.
Pop a ❤️ if it is.

😳Worried what ppl think?😳

What do you think when you see others exercising in public?

Surprise yourself and just do it.

Prove to yourself that it’s fine.
No one really cares what you’re doing; if anything, they’re thinking, “Good on them. I wish I could do that”

Inspire others and get yourself out there 💪🏼

(Or getting yourself a PT for a while can really help give you a confidence boost)

🍪Hungry?!🍪

What kind of hunger?!…
Physical hunger, so you need fuelling food?
Or
Emotional hunger, so you want something tasty/crunchy that’ll give that dopamine hit?

Today, I wanted both.

I went for some high-protein yoghurt first to get some actual energy & to fill my hunger hole.
Then, I had a chocolate biscuit to hit my happiness spot.

If I’d have gone straight for the biscuits, I probably wouldn’t have stopped at one.
I know myself well enough to know that.

All hail Skyr yoghurt 🙌🏼

👇🏼True story below👇🏼

Recently one of my clients surprised a friend she was helping move house bcos she could lift some really heavy boxes!

But the best bit, some boxes were actually too heavy for her, but she was confident enough to have a go, knowing she wouldn’t hurt herself.

When you know HOW to lift, you can safely have a go, without the worry of putting your back out

What an amazing feeling 🤩

#stronggirlsclub #girlswholift

🤷🏼‍♀️Not getting results you want?!🤔

Are you doing lots of cardio?!

This is ❤️great for heart health❤️ and should definitely be part of our lives, but high levels of cardio require lots of calories at the time. Our bodies don’t like imbalances.

What can happen:
👉🏼cardio👉🏼high calorie expenditure👉🏼body wants to replace calories (and often more, to prepare for that to happen again)👉🏼more hunger😔little fat loss

Hence the hunger after a big run (or sometimes the following day…marathon runners, you’ll know what I mean!).

💪🏼STRENGTH TRAINING💪🏼 requires less calories at the time, but building and maintaining muscle mass requires calories consistently, EVEN AT REST.

So when we:
👉🏼strength train👉🏼Eat well👉🏼rest👉🏼steady, consistent calorie burning✨steady fat loss

I love helping people with fitness & fat loss.

👇🏼More info🙋🏼‍♀️

Their bodies are doing lots of growing and some days they’ll need to keep topping up their energy levels in between meals.

Many of us parents can fall into a trap of giving our little one(s) easy, shop bought snacks that are marketed at toddlers & children; however, many of them contain little nutrition and don’t fill the gap for long.

Pairing CARBOHYDRATES(fruit, oats, bread, crackers etc) with some PROTEIN (Greek yoghurt, houmous) and/or some FATS (nut butters, cheese) can help stabilise blood sugars bcos it SLOWS the DIGESTION process and gives our children energy for longer.

Learn more about this (& more examples) in my downloadable nutrition guide and my nutrition programmes

🍪Love a quick biscuit/chocolate?! 🍫

Turn this into more of an event by plating it up alongside some fruit/veg and something like nuts or cheese (Babybels are perfect portion).

Doing this will help:

👉🏼Your BRAIN register you’ve eaten, preventing you grabbing more

👉🏼Your ENERGY levels. Adding fibre, carbs & a little fat will slow digestion & release energy more steadily for the next hour or so

👉🏼Make the chocolate/biscuit/cake or whatever it is feel less exciting. It makes it another food on your plate. Still delicious, but not on a pedestal

Try it and see if it makes a difference to your snacking habits/cravings.

👎🏼Stop deprioritising yourself🤚🏼

We all have needs and it isn’t selfish to verbalise and prioritise yours.

Growing up, I very rarely saw my mum sit down, relax and make time for herself (she was, and still is, amazingly energetic and productive), but I think the message I interpreted is that the sign of a good day is how much you’ve achieved, got done and what you produced.

Things I’m now teaching myself and modelling to my children:
*Rest isn’t wasted time
*There are things I enjoy doing, away from the family
*I’m better company when I’m playing & resting; not always ‘doing’
*If I’m the one cooking, I make meals I love!

There are more, but for now, this is enough to be working on.

If you’re in need of more help with this, feel free to message me and check out @annamathur (she is constantly banging the drum for mums to look after themselves & is so relatable)

P.s. I’m sure my mum did relax, or was just happy being busy. When I was little, she didn’t have the pressures we do to work as much (cost of living blah blah). Our generation is facing different challenges.

😳Eating healthy vs eating for fat loss🫢

👆🏼Not the same thing.

Some very nutritious foods are naturally higher in fat (‘healthy’ fats’!), so what we eat these foods with and when can make a difference to our overall calories intake and fat loss success.

Per gram,
Protein = 4 calories
Carbohydrates = 4 calories
Fat = 9 calories

It’s one thing knowing this, but another knowing what to do with the information!

When eating food higher in fat, look at what you’re pairing them with to prevent calories of one meal or snack creeping up and taking you overboard - preventing you losing fat, or evening putting weight on.

If you’d like more support with any of this, click link in my bio & head for ‘Nutrition’

It can feel confusing, so I like to make it simple.
Em x

🕰️ I’m too busy for that right now👎🏼

So when do you think you’ll be less busy?!

Probably never.

Not every day will be full of ‘healthy choices’…life is busy, unpredictable, uncontrollable…but amongst the busyness, there is room for little changes.

On some days, there can be room for bigger changes and, over time, these little and big changes accumulate to great things
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Don’t write yourself off bcos you’re busy.
I promise, improving your health and fitness will only make your busy life more manageable.

⭐️Personal training
⭐️Exercise classes

👆🏼All designed for busy people 😊

🌀Stuck in a spiral?!🌀

Does this feel familiar?

We start each day with good intentions, but then busyness kicks in and we grab-and-go food when we can.

All this snacking can create a rollercoaster for our blood sugar and energy levels and can accumulate to a high calorie intake, sometimes subconsciously.

This is where some planning and food prep can be a game changer:
Have food prepped in the fridge ready to be grabbed on-the-go:
👍🏼Boiled eggs
👍🏼Pre chopped veggie sticks & houmous
👍🏼Whole cooked chicken for days of lunches
👍🏼roasted veg

👇🏼My approach👇🏼

I know, I know, women shouldn’t continuously strive to be smaller, but, I also know that we live in an environment where *food is everywhere* and maintaining a healthy weight can be challenging.

What’s more, there is so much conflicting advice about fat loss and healthy eating out there; I want to empower women to know the facts, so you can make the changes you want to make to reach your goals.

No more restarting on Monday.

If this sounds like exactly what you need, check out my
NO NONSENSE NUTRITION programme.

Available as a small-group in-person programme (running over 4 weeks from my home gym)
Or
As a downloadable guide

🤭Not just me being competitive🤭

It’s me setting an aim for myself.

I always want to be faster…or at least on par, with my kids.

I want play to feel fun for all of us, not me feeling out of breath and like I can’t keep up.

I want them to feel that giggly sense of fear that I may actually catch them and learn about losing & turn taking when I do.

My children are 8 & 6 now and so far, I’m still faster.

How’re you doing?!
