So as most of you will know, I started my fitness journey exactly a year ago today when I started group PT & started taking it more seriously. Over the past year, I have been pretty consistent with my training... a bit up and down with my eating habits but overall doing ok. I have been training in a small gym, usually in separate rooms doing classes and with the same small ...

So this post is just to highlight that even as a Personal Trainer I want people to know that the Fitness Journey is just the same for me as it is for everyone else. When I took the first picture I hadn’t been training as often as I wanted and I hadn’t lifted a weight for about 3/4 weeks before, I also hadn’t really been paying attention to what I was eating.

January 15th 2020   So after having 3 weeks off over Christmas and New Year ( Iv never had 3 weeks off before at Christmas and to be honest probably wouldn’t do it again ) I went back to the gym with a lot of energy to get back into my training (not so much motivation as that’s always tough with time off).

I was a lot fast ...

Now don’t get me wrong my current weight is 12.12stone (81.6kg) and it would probably be a lot less if I had kept up my running regime. I also have fallen of the healthy diet slight ...

Weight Loss Journey Its Friday! Woohoo! Its been a tough few weeks trying to get through being back at work and sticking with my current training plan. My weight coming into the New Year was 13.9 stone (88.2kg) with my target weight to reach in April being 12.4 stone (79kg). Now to achieve this goal of weight loss my plan was to mix up my training with more Cardio and change ...

Back to work :(  Its the dreaded Monday after a long two week break over Christmas and New Year when you lose track of time and days and think its suitable to have some left over chocolates for breakfast and stay in your jammies all day not even having to step foot outside apart from emptying the bins full of all the left over sweetie wrappers and bottles of booze you have bee ...
