💪 Client of the year 🥳

I’ve been working with Simon for over a year now and he’s made some serious gains.

He came to me looking to gain muscle AND lose fat and I reckon we’ve done just that.

He’s heavier, stronger and leaner than before.

Been a pleasure so far

Want results like Simons? Give me a DM.

🥳WE’RE DONE🥳

It’s a bloody Christmas miracle.

You’re looking at the owner of Spinworks and now Fitnessworks.

This will be Balham’s first hybrid fitness studio.

We will be offering spin, small group classes and 1:1 personal training sessions.

It only took 6+ months of negotiating and talking to solicitors but we’re finally here.

🥳Watch this space for more info on the refit of the space and what comes next!! 🥳

👀What’s the deal with the inactivity?👀

The drop in activity on this account isn’t due to a lack of effort...

More of a shifting of priorities😉

Something big is coming to Willpower Health & Fitness..

All these hours before and after work on the laptop are leading up to something.

I can’t tell you what, I can’t tell you when... but something is definitely coming.

Stat tuned for more info soon😛

🥳Something is coming 🤩

There’s a reason why I haven’t been as active on here.

On top of all the hours I’ve been working, I’ve been working on a little project…

🤫

This is big.

I can’t tell you when, but soon.

Stay tuned.

🏃‍♂️HIIT vs Cardio (LISS)🏃

Most of us are led to believe that HIIT may be a more time-efficient way to burn fat when compared with more long and slow cardio.

🤷While it is true that you can promote the same amount of fat loss with around 40% less of the required time when compared to LISS, sometimes HIIT may not be always be the best choice:🤷

Here are a few reasons why:

1️⃣Recovery – it’s harder to recover from and actually can hinder your muscular adaptations from your weights sessions as you aren’t fresh enough for the next session, meaning you can’t and shouldn’t do as many of them per week (unlike LISS)

2️⃣Muscle loss - The intensity of exercise also influences how much muscle is used for fuel.. meaning the more HIIT we do, the more muscle loss may occur (unlike LISS)

3️⃣Is it really needed? If you already weight training multiple times a week, going into a slight calorie deficit may be enough to keep the bodyfat lower

✅So pick which one works best for you, your current training schedule and your goals✅

I’m currently sticking to LISS to keep my cardio up a little. I’m keeping my CNS as fresh as possible as not to hinder my performance in the weight room.

Which are you doing?

🤷Do you even squat?🤷

I was the same, I never used to squat as I thought it was the cause of my shknees (both patellar and quad tendonitis for years)

🤦Wrong move🤦

The squat is the best lower body exercise you aren’t doing.

Squats are one of the simplest exercises to improve the lower areas of the body.

And they’re a great leg mass builder.

🙄But I see so many terrible techniques.🙄

Beside the basic points of a squat, what else can you be doing?

Here are four tips that really helped me out:

1️⃣Squeeze your shoulders together under the bar and pull yourself tight to the bar.

2️⃣Take a big deep breath AT THE TOP. I see too many people taking the breath during the descent. You need to keep a nice solid core/torso throughout the entire lift.

3️⃣Keep your knees either inline or slightly outside of your toes. This will help you keep your torso more upright.

4️⃣Try to keep the damn torso upright. It’s predominaitely a knee movement, not a hip movement (this one is mobility dependent).

Give them a go

🤷Which Whey?🤷

Whey protein is perfect.

✅It provides protein and a near perfect amino acid profile, great for muscle building and growth.

✅It’s especially high in the amino acid leucine, which is known to stimulate muscle protein synthesis at the molecular and genetic level. Again, perfect for building muscle.

✅It increases the release of certain anabolic hormones that can stimulate muscle growth.

✅Whey is also absorbed and metabolised by the body very rapidly when compared to other types of protein. Great for a post-workout protein source.

✅And It tastes damn good when flavoured.

But choosing which whey protein type to buy can be a tad confusing.

Concentrate, isolate or hydrolysate?

What’s my advice?

Choose the cheapest and simplest.

🎅Merry Christmas folks🎅

Let the hair down a little.

Enjoy yourself over this time off.

Over this period, I shall not be working out much, I’ll eat pretty freely and only consume a smidge of alcohol 👀

Have fun

🤷4 Possible Reasons You Aren’t Gaining Muscle🤷

There’s no doubt about it, it’s bloody hard to consistently build muscle.

The body can hit a plateau, life can get in the way of training or sometimes you just can’t be bothered.

Here are 4 things to think about to help you get back on track:

1️⃣you aren’t lifting heavy enough (lift heavier, more often. You need to consistently stress the muscle)

2️⃣you aren’t trying hard enough (push yourself harder within a session, less rest, more exercises, more weight etc)

3️⃣you aren’t lifting often enough (hitting one muscle group once per week is often not enough)

4️⃣nutrition issues (not enough or poorly timed carbohydrate + protein)

Look to improve these 4 things and lets see how you get on.

I have personally implemented all of these and have never felt better (minus the back injury😢)…
