Energise and Revive Good Health for 2024

Give Yourself an Energy Boost

Making healthy changes in your life is not a huge overhaul or a daunting task involving lots of research. Taking small steps and making alterations that fit into your everyday life will bring success. We all want that quick fix, but 'quick fixes' won't 'fix' life-long bad habits. 

Spring is such a great time to feel refreshed and renewed. Lighter evenings are on their way, sunny days and mild weather will follow. We will naturally feel more energised as we head towards summer, so what better time is there than now, to start taking good health seriously and to make those improvements.

Planning a Healthy Lifestyle - Just by changing a few simple things in your day to day life, could make a big impact on your health and well being. Adding half an hours brisk walk to your day, five times a week and add weight bearing activities twice a week will improve both your cardio and bone health. Look at your eating habits and make a plan to replace one bad habit with one good habit, once or twice a week. For example, drink a glass of water with your breakfast rather than coffee or perhaps replace meat with fish once a week.

The Importance of Goal Setting - We all have goals for many different reasons. They can range from a 'small' habit change to a total 'life' change. But why do some of us have the motivation to see our goals through and some of us......well, we just can't seem to get started? We need to look at our goals and break them down to manageable segments, find our stimulus and never see any part of our journey as a failure. It maybe a smaller goal for example you want to achieve a healthier lifestyle, exercise more or lose weight. These are all goals, your own personal goals you feel will make you happier, successful or achieve the lifetime change you have always dreamed of. They are your goals and YOU want to make them achievable.

The fitness industry is ever evolving. With new ideas and techniques to help you keep fit and healthy. New ways to approach your needs or perhaps a complete body and mind transformation......it is all pretty overwhelming, even for me and I have been within the fitness industry for many years. The more information there is out there, the more confusing it all becomes. Not sure what to do? Let me help and guide you through a fitness routine that you can stick with for a lifetime. It is not complicated nor is it time consuming ....... but most of all health and fitness should be enjoyable and suitable for your own unique lifestyle.You can now get Fit for Life and for free with plenty of available tools on the internet for all fitness levels

Stress is a huge health risk and we need to learn to Relax and Breathe. Simple deep breathing mindful techniques can bring an array of health benefits for mental and physical health. Deep breathing can reduce stress and anxiety by slowing down our breathing, reducing our heart rate and controlling our emotions and negative physical feelings. The calming benefits of a simple breathing technique for stress, anxiety and panic attacks will take just a few minutes a day. You will get the most benefit if you add this to your daily routine.

Living a Simple and Meaningful Life is our ultimate goal. We should be enjoying our time here on this earth whilst we can and that means reducing stress and making time for the things we enjoy in life.

Living a simple life is something I am really trying hard to implement into my own life, however life changes all the time and our priorities move from pillar to post in this ever changing world. Living a simple life leaves you with precious time to actually enjoy life itself and this is why we are here after all!

Is Circuit Training the Best Class for all-round Fitness?

  What is a Circuit Class? As a Class instructor and personal trainer I am often asked “What is the best class for fitness and weight loss?” My answer will always be circuits. The reason for this is a good circuit class will incorporate strength training, cardio fitness and core strength. The class “ punches a packet” when it comes to a full body workout and cardio health. The big bonus comes with the diversity and variety of this class. I do hear many of my clients say that strength training is boring or they hate cardio and core workouts. But by putting all these 3 elements into one circuit class it adds a bit more gusto to your workout and adds a little more interest. A circuit class makes for a quick and efficient workout with major results. How does a Circuit Class Work? A general circuit class will give you a full body workout, plus cardio, plus core strengthening exercises. Some circuit classes can be set to a specific discipline such as football or boxing to help improve perfor

  Lifting for Longevity  Why is it important to lift weights? Apart from building strong muscles, the benefits include burning body fat, strengthening joints and bones, reducing the risk of injury and improving heart health. To lift safely, it is very important to start slowly, take rest days and make sure that you are lifting with good posture (form). Two or three 20 to 30 minute strength sessions every week can result in significant health benefits. Increased Muscle mass: Our muscle mass decreases drastically as we age and strength training can help to reverse this natural tendency. Strong Bones: Strength training increases bone density and helps prevent fractures Joint Flexibility: Lifting weights keeps our joints supple and can help prevent the onset of arthritis Weight Control: As we build more muscle, our bodies burn calories a lot easier enabling us to maintain or lose weight. Improves Balance: Strengthening exercises increase flexibility and balance, preventing falls and redu

The Best Youtube Home Workouts

  Youtube Home Workouts I like to mix up my workouts from gym training to HIIT's to resistance band workouts. When you are short of time and a visit to your local exercise class isn't an option, then a homework will fit the bill perfectly.  At the moment we do not have a choice of course, but once normality returns and we are working longer hours, don't use the excuse of 'being too tired' or 'having no time' to exercise. Home workouts are instant, come in all shapes and sizes and available at the touch of a button..........and accessible anytime of the day or night.  I have been instructing classes online during this lockdown with my  private facebook group  members and it has been a lot of fun.  We have had gym sessions, strength training and circuit classes. My group members have done really well and are reaping the benefits of keeping active during these uncertain times. Staying active at any age, will help you live a healthier and happier life. Exercis
