Working in health and fitness, I think the most common phase I hear is…   ‘I’ll start again on Monday’   OR   ‘I’ll get back ‘on it’ on Monday’   (caveat…if it’s a bank holiday….I’ll start again on Tuesday..!)   I can’t tell you how much it pains me to hear this over and over […]

It’s inevitable really….   Our lives are interwoven with so many others….   On top of that we have the mixture of work, kids, commitments, meetings and social engagements to juggle around   When are you ‘trying to be good’ it can be one thing after another that just ‘gets in the way’   Holiday’s, weddings, […]

The mood that you are in when you wake up and the feelings that you have are not set in stone for the day Some days I wake up feeling bright and shiny ️ Other days (like today) I woke up feeling anxious, and stressed out There isn’t rhyme nor reason to these feelings today (sometimes […]

When it comes down to it Getting into ‘shape’ (whatever that really means) is bloody hard work You have to restrict your food (and probably weigh it out for each meal) You have to be able to train damn hard You will probably end up missing out on some social events It’s likely that you’ll find eating out […]

So I’m finding it hard to shake of the feeling of elation since watching ‘The Greatest Showman‘ last week It wasn’t difficult to find another powerful message to draw from the movie which applies so easily and frequently to our lives… First of all though I’d like to ask you a question: Could you be […]
