“SUCCESS DOESN’T KNOW ABOUT COLD OR TIRED (OR FROSTY) IT JUST KNOWS IF YOU SHOWED UP”

TRUE! Everyone can have a reason not to exercise, but success can only be achieved without those excuses. I see my clients overcome reasons not to train everyday but we can often find ways around those to train safely.

🏋️‍♂️There are many ways to improve your fitness & ultimately your health so if you think you CAN’T then think again as that excuse is invalid in almost every instance. Don’t think GOLD medal but think small steps on the path to greater health!

🥩Portions are another topic brought up this week. I’ll admit when my children were young & I was at home with them I’d easily eat the same as my husband. Yet he worked long hours doing physical work. This realisation that I was eating two burgers to his two burgers was a turning point.

🥩I also now often save half of my dinner for my lunch as leftovers & this has also been a turning point. Prior to this realisation I’d probably eat the leftovers so not to throw them out. Therefore eating 1 1/2 dinners. I now save them for lunch which is a much better solution & my lunch has become a favourite meal.

🍠Portions are not a one size fits all. How much we eat relates to many factors - age, sex, job, lifestyle, hormones, thyroid, to name a few. To read more about portions click on this link https://www.drlibby.com/health-wellbeing/hunger-vs-appetite-whats-the-difference/

☔️It’s been a dryer week in Mid Canterbury this week. And although we’ve yet to calculate our kilometres in the gym - we will start next week. So get going!

🏋🏼‍♀️I’ve been told that the DOMS (delayed onset of muscle soreness) has been prevalent this week with some of the skater steps / walking lunges & and wheel exercises we completed this week. Congrats to my clients for determination & smiling every when it was hard! Have.a great weekend.
