Revive updated their address.

WINTER UPDATE ⛄️☔️

It's been a while since I posted an update on Revive so here you go...

As many of you know, we bought a house when lockdown ended and we've been working around the clock to turn the very old garage into a new training studio. There were many moments we weren't sure it was going to happen 🤔🤬 but it's finally ready!!

And it's such a cool space. 🤩

Bootcamps are now running three nights a week again and you can find the schedule on Revive's website. I'm pretty much full for clients but I have a few fabulous ladies leaving soon so message if you'd like some private training and I'll see what I can do. I also have some great online programs I wrote during lockdown. You can find more about them on my Female Fitness Systems website.

If there's anything else I can do let me know!

Remember I post more regularly over on my Female Fitness Systems page so make sure you follow me there too. 👊

Is it possible to have the best body of your life after 40? It sure is! Check out this article for some inspiration. 🤩💪

Part 2, which is all about nutrition, will be out tomorrow.

AUTUMN UPDATE

Hey! Hope you are all training hard and eating well! 💪🥑 Here are a few things to help you out + an update from me.

1. BOOTCAMPS

We now have sessions Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday at 6pm. We also have a Wednesday 6:30pm session but it's only open to advanced ladies. Groups are currently anywhere from 3-8 ladies, with Monday and Thursdays being our quietest sessions. In reality I should call these "group training for women" because, while we do some burpees and other bootcamp-like exercises, we also get into some heavier weights. But, for the sake of newcomers finding us through google we call them "bootcamps".

So, if you are looking for a friendly way to stay fit as it gets colder outside, get in touch to learn more! You can message me through this page or on 021 0712 895.

SPRING UPDATE 🦋🌼

Hey everyone! A quick update from me and what's happening with Revive this spring.

We have two 30 minute bootcamp sessions each week: Tuesdays at 6:15pm and Wednesdays at 6:30pm. Many of our Wednesday ladies have been training for at least 1-2 years so it is a more advanced group. I suggest new ladies start with Tuesday sessions (unless you are very fit and have weight trained before).

All small groups are full and have been underway for about 6 weeks now.

I'm still blogging over on Female Fitness Systems and I post more regularly on that page. So if you'd like more exercise and nutrition tips - pop over and follow me there.

Remember I also have some awesome 8 week online nutrition and training programs - still time to get started before Christmas! You can find more information about the programs on Female Fitness Systems or Revive's website: http://revivetruewellness.com/nutrition-program-8-week/

I'll try to post these updates more often to keep everyone in the loop. Have a great long weekend! Hopefully we get some much needed sunshine ☀️

Shout out to an amazing client and friend Amy Schrader! Tonight will be our last session before she moves to Taupo.

Amy, you've been one of my greatest supporters since I started and I can't thank you enough for your enthusiasm and inspiration over the years. I know you inspired a lot of the other ladies in our groups along the way too (and kicked our butts regularly in the bootcamps!). We will miss you dearly but wish you all the best with this next adventure 💛💜

Anyone watching this one TV1 right now? Very interesting! I wouldn't eat bugs even if it was better for the environment but I'm happy to eat plant-based protein. What do you think?

I'm so keen to eat more purple food after watching it! We may not have access to the purple potatoes but blackcurrants, blueberries and blackberries all have similar brain boosting power.

Have you heard of Clever Rice? It tastes the same as regular white rice but it has a lower GI which means you get less of a spike in blood sugar after eating it.

P.S. If anyone sees this product in Palmerston North would you let me know? I picked this up in Auckland but haven't been able to find it here!

There's still a few spaces in this workshop next week! It's about fat loss from a female perspective and I'm going to talk about stuff that no one else is telling you including:
-keeping your metabolism healthy
-why it gets harder to lose weight as you get older
-how to target trouble areas like your stomach and legs
-figuring out which advice is worth following
-why dieting doesn't work (and may actually lead to weight gain) and what to do instead.

If you want to join us you can get all the info here: http://femalefitnesssystems.com/nutrition-workshop/

Another year has come and gone, and these ladies have trained hard! I want to give all these lovely bootcampers (including the ones who didn't make it to dinner last night) and all my clients a huge shout out for being so amazing!!

You show up every week - positive, energetic and ready for anything (like bear squats or incredible amounts of burpees!). It's my job to motivate you but you keep me going too. It's my absolute pleasure and privilege to work with you all! Thanks for a great year.

Fish oil and multivitamins back in stock. And some samples for me! Yay!

Hey bootcampers! Our flight home was diverted to Honolulu so I'm arriving in NZ two days later than planned. I might be a bit weary from lack of sleep due to crazy flight times but bootcamps will be on again from Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing you all then!

A sunset to end my trip ☀️

Wild blueberries! My dad picked them, my brother and I cleaned them and we'll all eat them.

Other than multivitamins, magnesium is the supplement I recommend the most often for women. It has so many benefits - including helping with stress, mood, energy, headaches, PMS and better periods.

Not all magnesium supplements are good though - many of them use magnesium in an oxide form which isn't well absorbed by your body.

Due to how hard it can be to find a good supplement in NZ, I'm now stocking the Doctor's Best Magnesium which is one of the top ranked magnesiums in the world according to Labdoor.com.

If you have any questions about taking magnesium drop them in the comments below and I'm happy to answer them for you!

Hey everyone. I'm running a workshop on the 23rd June, 5:30-7pm that's going to be all about having happier periods and hormones.

We'll be talking about how to:
> get rid of cramps
> lessen heavy periods
> improve fertility and age better
> manage mood swings and cravings
> how to cut through the noise of all the latest food trends and figure out what works for you.

If you would like to join us, you'll find all the details here:

Favourite things he says:

“People have the misconception that age makes you old, but I realize that it’s a state of mind that makes you old.”

"If you start thinking you're old...then your body gonna feel that it's old."

"I see a lot of young guys who are older than me."

Spent the afternoon getting creative with glute exercises. It's going to be a good week of leg/butt training for clients and bootcampers!

Here's a little something to help you start your week off right. If you haven't seen this latest post on my blog - it's all about removing negative self talk and believing in yourself.

A MUST read for all my clients but also for anyone who wants better results from training and more confidence in life!

http://femalefitnesssystems.com/overcome-negative-self-talk/

Stop Defeating Yourself With Negative Self Talk | Female Fitness Systems Stop negative self talk and you’ll not only gain confidence and strength in the gym but also in every other aspect of your life.

The Best Way To Train Legs | Female Fitness Systems The best way to train your legs depends on your body type and your goals. Here are the common complaints women have about their legs and how to address them.

This is why I recommend a multivitamin for most people. Data showing that most people are deficient in key nutrients. If you are deficient your mood, ability to deal with stress, ability to stick to a nutrition plan, sleep, energy and hormone balance will be negatively impacted.

Stress, dieting, taking hormonal birth control, and exercising all increase our need for vitamins and minerals too!

Most women do not eat enough food to even be able to hit their requirements assuming they are able to eat perfectly all the time. I eat more than most women (and better too) and often come up short for iron, zinc, calcium, vitamin C and potassium (and this is only what I can track on myfitnesspal so there may be other deficiencies).

Food for thought...

p.s. sorry for the blurry photo. I screenshot it when I was watching a seminar with Precision Nutrition.

One of the biggest mistakes women make is dieting too hard. If you find it hard to lose weight, if you keep losing and regaining weight or if the weight keeps piling on and you aren't sure why, you need to check this out.

Be a better version of yourself in just 12 weeks! I'm looking for ladies who are serious about changing their bodies, confidence and lives this year.

NEW SESSION OPENING TUESDAYS @ 5:30pm, Starting March 1st

THERE'S ONE SPOT LEFT @5:30pm Monday
Starting next week!!
.................

The Details:

We’ll be meeting every week in small groups of 3 to train, talk about nutrition and keep you motivated – all the elements you need for successful fat loss and body transformation.

In the first session we get into nutrition, body measurements and setting goals and then for the rest of our time we focus on getting stronger and leaner through intense but fun training sessions.

There’s other bootcamps and group training around but none with such small personal groups and with a focus on female specific training and nutrition needs. You'll be a whole lot more motivated because you will be with 2 other ladies just like you and who will become your friends on your journey together.
