Fun!
As I learn to pace myself to fully recover from this never ending hip injury, I have decided to keep busy by entering a super cool and fun study by

2 large groups of athletes have been assigned a program to follow to train for Hyrox. Simply a running one and strength one. I thought I'll take the risk and hope I'll fall into the strength one and I did!

For 8 weeks we'll be training for Hyrox by doing 4 strength sessions and 1 running one (my dream split 🀣) whilst the other group switches this round.

This week is a testing week, 5k run, Hyrox SIM, Karen 😳 and some Burpees and Sled push AMRAP

Super fun way to distract myself from the noise in my head, telling me I can't make it to hyrox because I can't train running. But also I'm here for all the science and trial and error behind it!

If this proves that you don't have to run to do hyrox, I might give another race a go.... 🀣

Fitness FOMO

Fear of missing out on everything everyone else is doing in your gym... πŸ˜‚

Last night I made a choice to miss my gym's Hyrox Class.
At the moment, I come along 1. tmake sure I don't lose the fitness for the next hyrox comp 2. I love the community and it's so fun to share the space with like-minded people but also 3. I don't want to miss out on a super tough calorie burnt workout

I don't want to miss out on the sweat and tears, on the burnt calories. I am a fitness professional, specialising in women's fitness in particular. I KNOW it's all nonsense, I KNOW to achieve what I want to achieve, I have to have a different approach.

Yet, growing up I was always told to lose weight, always told to be slimmer, to take up less space.. Always told it's all about calories in calories out.

And even as a professional with tons of knowledge and passion about female fitness, embracing women's strong bodies, supporting clients in their amazing journeys to get fit and strong, NOT SKINNY! I still have this Fitness FOMO time to time.

Last night was one of those times. I knew I want to lift weights, I knew I want to get stronger (goal setting in the next post) but it meant I have to skip the class, get into a freezing cold garage gym and pick up the barbell.. Alone.. Cold.. Watching the gym's insta stories of everyone working out super hard, together.. While I was barely sweating.

But... Did you know... I would have built the muscle that I wanted, the muscle that will keep me going for years to come (OK, I know I need a few more sessions..). No, I didn't burn calories, but instead I built a bit of future and I am proud of myself for putting my goal first, not giving in to the FOMO I had last night..

Disclaimer! I am still fragile about missing a class.. πŸ˜‚ And no, this isn't a post slagging off anyone who does anything like hyrox. This is about what I need at this time of my life... I will still do my hyrox classes, but I'll be training just a little smarter for my goals...

"You're not very good"
Said noone ever (hopefully!) to their daughter/mum/friend/partner....
My daughter and my mum are both incredible and amazing and I hope they know that 😍

So why is this one of the most frequent conversations I am having with my clients? Explaining that talking down to yourself won't make you succeed, it will create little creases in your confidence that will eventually make you want to stop because 'what's the point'...

And why am I so hypocritical? Because this is exactly how I treat myself, this is my number 1 barrier in training. Apparently I'm rubbish, not good enough, not as fast/strong/good/same looking as the person next to me. I'd never treat anyone else this way, so why do it to myself?

Recent conversations with my 11 going on 21 daughter and some incredible encounters with insanely lovely supportive people made me question the way I talk to myself.

The plan is to be kind, so that the inner feeling of confidence transfers into my own training and onto my own clients.

Because who am I to talk if I don't do as I preach πŸ˜πŸ‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Running... If you know me even just a little, you'll know I absolutely despise running.... I know I can do it, I know I can get faster, I know I will enjoy it a little once I get better at it, still, I don't like it!
Is running good for us? Sure, it's a movement, we need it time to time, it improves our cardiovascular system, challenges other systems in the body that don't get challenge in the same way when we do strength training.
Is it essential? I'm not sure, I like to know I can run a 5k if I want/have to. I like to know I can sprint it to the train station if running late and not die. Currently it is essential for our Hyrox race in December.

I would never discourage anyone from running, nor would I get them to start unless they want to.

But what I find the hardest, is the minimal, slow improvements.... In strength training, I see and feel results super fast, even if it's 0.5kg up on the Barbell or another pull up (on top of the only 2 I can do... πŸ˜…)

Running is soooo hard, I have been training for 4 weeks, 3 runs per week. Mainly exposure training (just getting in the miles). But I still struggle and I still find it hard. My pace is faster, I am not stressing about doing 10k anymore.so yes, things have improved, but soooo slowly! And I can't help but compare myself to others, seeing them fly by without any vivid effort...
It doesn't help if you live with an absolute machine, 'the one'

But I'll just keep going, chipping away the miles, moving onto the next 4 week block of more interval training, and update you then... I know it's possible, I've been there, I have sort of enjoyed running.. But it takes a very very very long time... Wish me luck!
