My role within is leading executive resilience.

For years, I’ve been talking about stress and how when we’re stressed our sympathetic nervous system takes over and we begin to suffer without realising, subconsciously.

We just start accepting poor sleep, increased fatigue brain fog and an inability to recover as normal or just signs of age…

And they’re really not!! You need to give yourself more credit than this, it’s not over yet!

And I’m working to help you (one on one) to realise that and start increasing your own physical and mental capacity so you can show up not just at the gym but also at work and for your family and deal with many more high stressful moments, and start coming out on top!

DM me for a quiet chat on how we can start making this happen for you!

Feeling very cleansed after this morning…
🌅
Been dying to get back running in the mountains but between recovering from surgery and focusing on work and banking as much sleep as possible over the last few weeks this morning was the first time in a long time I bounced out of bed at 4am and hit the road…
🌄
My fitness might have been lacking but there’s still tonnes of water, lots of greenery is back, hoping for more over the next few weeks before the summer roles around

Do this tomorrow, all you “rise and grind” morning folks!!
🌅
When you’re finished your workout, get in the car, put your favourite song on and ENJOY the feeling of getting your workout done!
💪
I say this every morning to the gang leaving the gym, protect your peace… Don’t open your emails, your whatsapp, Instagram, all that can wait at least 15-20 minutes if not longer!
That s**t is just dying to steal your peace from you!

5 simple ways to reduce anxiety that don’t involve the gym…
🖐️
Many people are travelling, many more of us are starting put… Most of us, either way, are bubbling along around a 5 out of 10 at least on the anxiety scale.
So we need to pay close attention and do as many small things as as possible to shave off a few numbers and stop added stress compounding on our regular tolerable/daily stress & pushing us any higher!
1️⃣
Reduce or eliminate caffeine. It ramps your nervous system up, acts as a stimulant when we actually need to find ways to relax and calm. I LOVE COFFEE but starting the day my usual way at the moment with 2-3 cups before midday is making me feel like I’m about to fight somebody… Start your day right and drop it right down!
2️⃣
Add 2-3,000 more steps in your daily routine, early morning or late evening walk 20-30 minutes each (even if you normally smash 10k). We need to find ways to temporarily subdue the angst in the air.
3️⃣
Get around nature & belly breath. Stand up straight with your shoulder me back in a confident posture and take as many long slow breaths as you can, push your belly out as far as you can as you do. If you can hear the birds, be around other people, touch grass or sand or the ocean then also do that!
4️⃣
Eat well. I know sweets and chocolate are amazing, i’m guilty too, but just be aware s**tty food increases low level inflammation in your system which increases your stress response. Stay hydrated (when possible) everybody… Also be aware of caffeine in Coke & some teas!
5️⃣
Sleep well. Bed early, (if you can during Ramadan) with a book, maybe even have a shower before bed, dim lights, no screens, Netflix can wait and try and add an extra hour or so at the front end so you can wake up and maybe not need that first coffee and you’ll have time to go for a walk at sunrise!

Week 8️⃣ & with all the💥noises in the sky all week I decided to keep Teddy 🐕 with me and take him (& Max) to the gym when it was quiet!
🐶 🐶
This week was also the start of occlusion cuff training which in short means; I can start loading the joint & the muscles with a very light weight, gently stress the tendon where it attaches to the bone, and the occlusion aspect restricts the muscle from blood returning & replenishing during the reps and sets. It effectively creates a lot more cell damage and waste which improves its condition at this early stage with very low and safe intensity….
👌💪
Safe has been the word of the week this week!

Week 7 - Felt the need to run!
Haven’t run since November, needed to change my neuro-chemistry, 4km, felt good, no aches or pains, kept it short,, looked down and my arm was straight…
🦾
Managed to fix the brace and following doctor’s orders I’ve kept it on.
🦾
Confessing that I will likely use my left arm moving weights and benches etc around the gym, I agreed with that it’s best to keep the brace and not suffer any set backs after good progress this far…
🦾
We’ve extended the range of motion but the tendon graft is still not strong enough to endure anything heavier than 1-2kg around the gym…
💪
Isometric exercises and scar work is the plan for this week

Week 4 and getting some semblance of normality back, finally back driving which is a massive help aswell as being able to start light training again…
🦾
Three body weight only leg sessions this week & a few hours on the bike and treadmill…
🥴
Body is mush, moral is doing fine, but I am thinking of making a sign or leaflets to answer everybody’s questions with “what happened?” on one-side and “how’s the recovery going?” on the other…
🪧
Shoutout as usual
🙏

Self-talk is very important 👌

Week 3 - I needed to swap to a custom-made cast from because my elbow felt like it was falling out of the back of the brace. It’s surprising how heavy your arm is when your muscles are not supposed to be activated.
So another week of scar work, hand exercises with a gentle introduction into low level cardio.
🦾
Passive ranges are on track at about 20-30degrees off full extension & full flexion before a build up pressure only in the very back of my elbow joint of all places.
💪
No pain, no problems, all on track so far still
