Staying hydrated is crucial for many reasons! Hydration helps maintain the balance of bodily fluids, supports digestion, regulates body temperature, and aids in nutrient transport and absorption. It also helps with energy levels, cognitive function, and overall physical performance. So, remember to drink enough water throughout the day to keep your body functioning at its best!
It's recommended to drink about 8-10 glasses of water per day, which is roughly 2-2.5 liters. However, individual water needs can vary based on factors like age, activity level, and climate. Just listen to your body and drink water whenever you feel thirsty to stay properly hydrated!

Still have a few from last week who haven't sent payment over π you wouldn't walk out of asda with your shopping and say oh it's OK I'll send payment over later would you? Pay upfront or on the day of your session at the very latest. Also if you are booked in with me and you cancel within 24 hours of your session you lose that session if you have paid upfront if you haven't paid upfront you must pay for that session before you can book in with me again this is my livelyhood and I have a family to care for thank you. π
Can anybody who trains with myself and pays via bank transfer please make sure to either pay before your session or pay once you turn up for your session at the very latest, it is not train now and pay later β Thank you.
Haven't been very active on here lately due to work and family commitments but will always reply if you want to get booked in or just looking for some advice feel free to drop me a message.

Don't skip leg day π«
When it comes to leg exercises, there are plenty of great options to choose from! Squats are a classic and effective exercise that target your quads, hamstrings, and glutes. Lunges are another fantastic choice, as they work multiple leg muscles and also help improve balance. If you want to challenge yourself, try some Bulgarian split squats or step-ups. And don't forget about deadlifts, which engage your hamstrings and glutes while also strengthening your lower back. Mix and match these exercises for a well-rounded leg workout that will leave you feeling strong and accomplished! πͺπ¦΅
