A little update!! Cancer was successfully removed in surgery - but was a bit more serious than initial tests showed - so I've started chemotherapy for 3 months and then I'll have radiotherapy!

I SAID I WAS GOING TO LIFT AND THAT'S WHAT I DID 👊🏼

I fu***ng beat cancer!!! ❤️‍🔥🤛🏼

Got the results this week - the most surreal time, a crazy mix of emotions these last few days since getting the news, I'm still in shock I think!! Some moments I fully believe it, other times I just keep thinking to myself what the f*ck Jennifer!!

The last 3 months have been wild, but also an incredible time. I’ve felt so strong, determined and so proud of my body and mind.

Life is amazing 💖💖

You have a choice every day how you show up.

The results are not going to happen by chance, you need to take action.

And then you happen to consistently repeat those actions for weeks, months, years.

I work with people who are ready to show up, take responsibility and feel empowered by their actions.

If this sounds like a bit of you, get in touch.

I have spaces available on my new online coaching programme EMPOWER, starting next Monday (5th February)

Message if you’re interested! 🚀

OLEKSIY TOROKHTIY SEMINAR, 13-14 May 2023 🇺🇦🏋🏻‍♂️

📍 London

Last weekend, I attended Torokhtiy’s 2 day theoretical and practical seminar - going over exercise techniques, the principles and methods of training for Olympic Weightlifting.

A little background info on Oleksiy - he has been weightlifting for over 20 years. He competed in the Olympics in 2008 and 2012, and is a European and World Champion in Olympic weightlifting.

On Saturday we went over the Sn**ch, while on Sunday we focused on the Clean + Jerk.

Both days started off with theory, for about 1hr-1.5hrs. Lots of notes!! Then we spent time working with the PVC stick (very light!), practicing the movements and going over the drills. Lots and lots of reps!

After lunch, we started using barbells to continue going over the drills and movement patterns. After this, Oleksiy drew up a programme for us to follow - the choice to stick to around 50-55% (of your 1RM), and work on technique and volume. Alternatively, you could build up to your 1RM and push the weights! Of course, I chose this option (cause how often do you get to train in front of a former Olympian, European champion + world champion) 🥳🥳

Really buzzing to get 2 PBs
~ 36kg sn**ch (big jump forward)
~ 47.5kg clean + power jerk

An amazing weekend! I learned so much, lots of new drills! New techniques on coaching and practicing the movements. Lots to take into my own training and that of my clients too!

Lots of reflections over the weekend too - too much to share, so that is for another post!

I love training and I love oly lifting, and this weekend made me fall even more in love with this sport ❤️‍🔥
