8 weeks done and dusted for client Lauren . ⁣
⁣
The pictures speak for themselves ,you don’t need to hear the stats 💥!! ⁣
⁣
Lauren is a busy mum of 2 , still breastfeeding , has returned to work after maternity leave and is organising a house move all within this 8 week timeline .⁣
⁣
𝗛𝗼𝘄 𝗵𝗮𝘀 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀?⁣
- she’s invested in herself by taking action and found a coach that understands her goals and needs . ⁣
- she’s been consistent .⁣
- she’s not made excuses.⁣
- she’s been honest .⁣
- we’ve created a nutrition plan that’s realistic and sustainable without restricting her of favourite foods . ⁣
- she’s enjoying her sessions and is seeing the benefits of strength training ! ⁣
⁣
This is only the beginning for Lauren . ⁣
Onto the next 8 weeks 🚀 but first she is off to enjoy a family holiday guilt free knowing that she can return and get back to work on her targets while being fully supportive , no silly low calorie diet or expectations !

I’f you’d like to achieve results like Lauren Dm to book your free consultation !

⁣
𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 to care about yourself ! ⁣
𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 to make a change!⁣
𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 to take a step forward no matter what that looks like . ⁣
𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗲 to invest in a coach ( me☺️) to help you with all of the above . ⁣
⁣
⁣
Who cares if you’re an amateur ! ⁣
Who cares what you look like ! ⁣
⁣
Caring so much about what other people think is why your progress is dead and why your potential is never discovered💯⁣
⁣
Are you constantly overthinking the smallest thing and predicting the worst outcome ?⁣
No one cares if you can’t lift correctly in the beginning , no one cares if you look funny trying to balance or jump , no one cares if you can’t lift 4kg .⁣
⁣
This is your sign to start caring about 𝗬𝗢𝗨! ⁣
No one cares but if you choose the right environment you will and can 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄 !!!

⁣
There’s no better way to finish the week then with a bootcamp session . ⁣
⁣
It’s been another week full of positive energy , lots of laughs and tough workouts and PT sessions . ⁣
⁣
Thank you all my amazing bootcamp members ! The supportive community we have built together over the last 7 nearly 8 years is truly special. ⁣
⁣
Wishing you all a fantastic bank holiday weekend ! ⁣

𝗠𝘆 𝟰 𝗸𝗲𝘆 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝗽𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 ! ⁣
⁣
They will make you happier , healthier and more successful. ⁣
⁣
𝗠𝗼𝗼𝗱 - focus on the actions that you know will make you 𝗙𝗘𝗘𝗟 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 . It’s much easier to take action when you feel good . ⁣
Most people give up because they get impatient waiting for delayed reward (fat loss , increased muscle etc ). By focusing on the immediate reward - how to diet and exercise make you feel, you will avoid this . ⁣
⁣
𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 - ⁣
It’s not going to be 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 . Refusing to accept that will mean you give up every time one little thing doesn’t go to plan . That is one way not to get results. ⁣
Your results are dictated by your 𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 over time . Once you embrace that your results will skyrocket . ⁣
⁣
𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗰𝘁 -⁣
You can’t 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹 what happens to you but you can choose your 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲. ⁣
Rather than reacting without thinking , learn to respond in a way your future self would be grateful for . ⁣
⁣
𝗘𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 - ⁣
Stop telling yourself you have to exercise or you can’t eat X. Instead tell yourself that you GET to exercise and that you are choosing to eat Y instead of X because that is choice that is inline with your goals . ⁣
⁣
This 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗮𝘁 𝗹𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆 from something restrictive that you resent to something empowering that you enjoy . ⁣

𝗙𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗡𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 ⁣
⁣
Nutrition can be flexible and easy if we look at calories over a weekly total rather than daily . ⁣
⁣
If you look at the weekly calorie total in the picture above , you will notice that on some days calories were slightly higher than the daily calorie goal. However over the 7 day period a calorie deficit was still achieved . ⁣
⁣
Using this calorie counting technique makes eating off plan easy and adaptable while being able to enjoy our favourite foods and social events while still seeing and getting results to achieve a fat loss .

📍𝗧𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲 𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻⁣
⁣
1️⃣ Don’t 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲 yourself of your favourite foods . Use a 80:20 split . ⁣
⁣
2️⃣ 𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲 your 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 slightly ahead of higher calorie meals or occasions. ⁣
⁣
3️⃣ 𝗦𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗲𝘀 eg if you save 100-200 kcals per day Monday - Friday that’s 500-1000kcals that you can use over the weekend or for that event that’s coming up during that week. ⁣
⁣
4️⃣ 𝗕𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁 if you go off track just make your next meal a “𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗢𝗡𝗘”

Massive shout out to client Vicky who’s now down 10lbs on the scales and stronger than ever 💪🏻💯⁣

⁣

The mindset and work ethic you bring on weekdays should be no different than the one you bring on weekends 💯

You can’t be consistent if you’re constantly taking a backseat on the weekends !

If this is you then it’s ⏰to take a new approach and find a balance that’s going to work for you long term !

I can help you at staying committed while finding a balance that’s going to work for you !

Drop me the word “balance” if you’d like to find out how I can help you maximise your health and fitness inside and outside of the gym 💪🏻

I know where I am going 🚀⁣
⁣
YOU have to believe in yourself before anyone else does and before any progress is even shown ! ⁣
That’s true confidence and grit ! ⁣
⁣
I’m not your average PT - I am a mum of 3 , I love food and eat off plan , I love a glass of red 🍷, I have body hang ups , I have cellulite, I have low days , I am as normal and as human as you are !! ⁣
⁣
But I have a tonne of true confidence and grit ! ⁣
⁣
Stop waiting for the approval of others and for “things to change”

Do you struggle with food prep and don’t know where to start ?

Yup I do to 🙋🏼‍♀️
I hate cooking or spending too much time in the kitchen , I just don’t have the time and quite frankly I find it an absolute ball ache !

But I’ve recently discovered go check out their Instagram page ! It’s cut my prepping time by half as I don’t have to think about what I’d like to cook for the week.
By just doing 5 lunches for myself frees up at least 4hours in my week ….. mental that is isn’t it !!

Chicken Burrito Bowl to get the recipe .

This recipe was simple and easy to make , tastes delicious and the best bit is it cost me £5 to make 5 lunches 🤩🤩🤩

If you sow the same seeds, you’ll reap the same rewards 🔥

And that’s exactly what client has done over the last 16 weeks .

The progress pictures speak for themselves but I’m sharing these because Kayleigh is a true testament of consistency 💯

She came to me at the start of year knowing that her results weren’t going to be achieved quickly over a short period of time . But fast forward 16weeks and she has literally blown it out of the park by just being consistent !!

If anyone had any excuses to not get it done then the award would go to Kayleigh .
She juggles work , uni and being mum to an almost one year old . She’s even transitioned a return to work after maternity leave during her time with me .

Kayleigh has used a flexible eating plan alongside her training program , weekly check ins that are goal specific to her ! This has allowed her to have days off pain to enjoy treats or days out with the family and still make incredible progress .

This is only the beginning for Kayleigh as we’ve barely scratched the surface !!

There’s literally no words needed really for this transformation the images speak for themselves.

But what I will say is that client has done nothing but be consistent week in week out 💯!
Her wedding was initially her driving force but as Lizzie started to build a great relationship with nutrition and training she soon began to see the bigger picture on her journey … that being her health and living her life to the fullest !!

She now enjoys life at its best , socialising and doing all of her favourite things without going off track.

This has been achieved by following a long term sustainable approach to personal training and not just looking for that quick fix !

If you can invest in a good coach who understands you and hears you then you can also achieve results like Lizzie’s 💯.
⁣
This is only the beginning for Lizzie as there’s so much more to come from her but for now let’s just appreciate her outstanding progress so far 💪🏻💪🏻.

The fact that you’re actively trying to improve yourself is something you should be proud of.

Don’t give up !!!

Commit and Conquer 💪🏻

Are you making resolutions this year ?

Do you do this every new year then stop when things get too much or you don’t understand how to achieve what you’ve set ?

I bet you’ve nodded as you’ve read and can answer yes to the above … right ???

If your looking to make a positive change to your health , wellness and mindset this year then here are my 5 tips on what you SHOULD BE FOCUSING ON
1. DO NOT DIET
2. WALK before you can RUN
3. LIFT HEAVY - stop this cardio obsession and strength train 💯

5. CHECK your p*e - Water is also key
