Great work tonight from this Magnificent 7!
A few trips up to the Beacon & they’re still smiling at the end of it all! Awesome effort from everyone 😊💪💪💪😊

Fab circuit session at the Village Hall with this lovely bunch last night. Lots of hard work & effort put in with plenty of encouragement & support for each other. A great group - get in touch & come & join us ❤️👍💪

What an amazing weekend - 3 Spartan Races over 3 distances with an amazing bunch of people! Lots of laughter, plenty of challenges but ultimately support for each other so we all perform to the best of our ability. There’s no better feeling. So proud of everyone who took part ❤️😊💪

Day1 of Spartan with a before & after pic.
Today it was The Beast 21km (closer to 24k) with 30 obstacles & a little bit of mud 😂😂😂
Going back tomorrow for the 10km Super & the 5km Sprint. Hard work but always great fun with such an amazing bunch ❤️

All things Spartan this evening. The last session before we take on the Sprint, Super or Beast or all 3 at Belvoir Castle at the weekend! We got this! AROO!

Had a cracking 2 hour session this morning with this Magnificent 7! We covered just short of 7 miles & enjoyed road & trail. Reps & miles in the bag by 8.30am - great way to start the day 😊

Tonight was all about getting Spartan Fit. With under 2 weeks to the main event we embarked on the toughest session yet with rope climbs, tyre runs, weighted cargo net crawls, monkey bars, resistance runs, hoists, Atlas Stone carries & walls to get over! It was an action packed hour 😊

Parkrun this morning for this Super 7. There were 6 of us running & 1 marshalling making sure our barcodes were scanned & times recorded. Thanks Belvoir Castle parkrun - we’d be most grateful if you could remove those hills for next weekend 😂

A midweek session round up! Great work from these amazing Bootcampers this week!
Always lots of hard work, laughter & support for each other. We’re always happy to welcome new members & the sessions are designed to suit all fitness abilities. Get in touch if you’d like to join us 😊

Quick weekly round up of our group session! Just one indoor circuit session this week with the outdoors claiming all the others to top up our Vitamin D levels )safely of course). Get in touch if you’d like to join a fun, friendly, incredibly supportive group ❤️

Big respect to this lovely bunch who smashed last nights session! Plenty of reps in the bag & miles in the bank as we journeyed through the village from the High School to the station. We even had time for a cheeky best effort lap at the end. A great way to spend a Wednesday evening! ❤️

A great Tuesday - 7.30 Bootcamp, 9.15 Indoor Circuits, 18.30 Spartan Training! Busy, busy, busy & we love it ❤️

In case you need a little help to get your trainers on 😊

The Fitness Block
It is normal for both men and women to take breaks from exercise and change what type of exercise they do. Sport England research has shown that the exercise journey is not always a commitment to one thing.

The interesting statistic is that 40% of young people take a break due to poor mental health. Add this to the 30% of 25–44-year-olds stopping due to lack of motivation it is clear that mental blocks are a big factor in not continuing and often not starting exercise.

The most common blocks are lack of confidence, lack of focus, body image and fear of judgement from others.

All of these are limiting beliefs recognise them from the self-talk in your head it says

“It’s too difficult to change my lifestyle”.
“I will embarrass myself”.
“I`m not good enough”

In a recent Momentai discovery workshop we spoke about how people can, using various techniques change these limiting beliefs into empowering beliefs. For example.

I look forward to exercise staying fit in mind and body.

I am talented and have all the ability I need.

Visioning techniques can be used to reduce the anxiety and fear of being involved in exercise.

One of my key roles as a personal coach is to help people become motivated, remove the limiting beliefs and to build confidence.

Oh, and if you want to join a fun, positive, non-judgemental and supportive exercise group I know an amazing personal trainer who does that too.

This morning saw 3 of us do the 10 mile Grim Reaper race at Grimsthorpe Castle. We had 3 at Newark Park Run & 1 at Belvoir Castle parkrun (no photo). We’re all currently enjoying Smug Saturday 😃

10k over in Long Clawson today for 7 of us. With an 11am start time it was a tad toasty & quite a challenging course but we all made it round & were still smiling at the finish! Well done everyone 🥇🎉❤️

Well done today to Jacy & Tom who took on the Burghley 5k & 10k respectively. A great achievement for them both so join me in congratulating them. Well done guys! 🎉💪❤️

There’s a child in us all & this evening doing reps on a playground really brought that out in all of us. Lots of laughter, smiles & just escaping for an hour. What’s not to love ❤️

A full on Tuesday! Street session at 7.30am, a Circuit session at 9.15am & then Spartan Training at 7.30pm in readiness for the Spartan event at Belvoir Castle in June 💪. So much effort put in at all the sessions - they all smashed it! ❤️

A few of us took on the Orston Spring Dash this morning in lovely sunny weather. A great event, fantastically organised with crocheted finishers medals kindly supplied by the crocheting talents in the local community. A fab morning. Thanks to all involved ❤️

Lovely fun in the sun workout tonight covering quite a bit of ground - 5k to be precise! The reps were the icing on the cake. Plenty of smiles & banter just added to the spirit of the session ❤️☀️💪

Great circuit session last night. This lovely bunch took on a 6 stations designed to overload specific muscle groups. It’s possible I’ll be on their minds all day today as they feel all the hard work they put in last night. Well done to all ❤️. If you’d like to join us please get in touch - suitable for all abilities 👍💪👍

A lovely 11 came & faced the elements for a fun Sunday session. A tad damp but still plenty of smiles & then 3 of us went & took on the 10k Longhorn because what else do you do on a drizzly Sunday 😊

The week in pictures! Monday to Friday both inside & outside. Smiling faces & fitness fun…..What’s not to love ❤️

Tonight this awesome lot took on a marathon inspired session - 26 exercises of 26 reps at 26 locations around the village with a 0.2 mile race to the finish line 😊. An apt session as 4 of this lovely lot have entered the ballot for next years London Marathon. We have everything crossed for all of them 🤞🤞🤞🤞

Tuesday, Thursday & Friday saw us Outdoors, Indoors & Outdoors again! Offering something for everyone & ALWAYS seeing well earned smug smiles at the end of each session. Get in touch if you’d like to join the Smug & Still Smiling Revolution - it’s a great feeling 😊❤️👍

A dozen lovely Bootcampers took to the streets of Bottesford this evening putting in plenty of hard work with running & reps. Over 3.5 miles covered & they’re all still smiling at the end! Great end to Hump Day ❤️

We had a great session at the skate park this morning but this status is all about celebrating 4 of our Bootcampers! One took on the Lincoln 10k & 3 took on the Manchester Marathon. Well done to all of you! Enjoy the post event celebrations 😊🥇👍🥇

3 day round up! Fab session around the village this evening, a cone-tastic session on Tuesday morning at circuits (lots of photo creativity at those sessions) & a damp but action packed 7.30am session yesterday morning! Always plenty of smiles & banter - the time flies by 😊❤️
