Did you know that your sleep habits aren't just deciding whether you feel fresh or like 💩 on a given day?

Scary as it sounds, your sleep is steering pretty much the whole course of your life, from:

- The age that you will live to
- Whether or not you will develop CVD, cancer, stroke, alzheimers
- Your ability to perform professionally (pitch, negotiate, support etc.)
- Your entire propensity to move and exercise
- Relationship/communication habits - your ability to show up properly for 'your people'
- Metabolism / Body fat storage rate

And that's just a few of the big obvious ones.

Although these impacts of poor sleep are a bit freaky, I don't intend to scare anyone - eg. New parents - your babies will grow soon, and sleep will improve (providing you have a strategy).

If you were sleeping great in another season of your life, this will have served you well - but the question is how to get back to that ASAP despite the many challenges of life. Think about:

- Napping or Non-sleep deep rest strategies
- Strategic tag team agreements (parents)
- Working hours manipulation/negotiation
- Supplements (eg. Magnesium, ashwaghanda, myoinositol)

Nail the basics and see what you can leverage to maximise your sleep - the effects will seep positively into every area of your life 💤👌🏽

Here's why the hours of sweat and tears you put into new training regimes never pays off.

I get it.

You feel like you've done all the right things.

Signed up to the gym. Committed to going 3 times a week. Maybe even got yourself a PT.

And when you throw in the cut down on bread, biscuits and crisps, sacrificing your social time, and maybe even your sleep by getting up early to train

It's no surprise you end up exhausted and deflated, very quickly.

So you sack it off. Re-kindle with your creature comforts, and re-group, considering how you'll do it differently next time.

But here's the kicker.

All you had to do to finally succeed was 3 things:

1) Make it more bearable
2) Not stop (because you made it more bearable)
3) Get to the bottom of this difficult question:

'If I'm doing all of this exercise, *why* am I not seeing results?'

The usual culprits:

- Your sleep is horrid
- You think you are in calorie deficit when you aren’t (or you eat like a child)
- You hate your job and are stressed
- You are constantly sedentary outside of your gym sessions
- You haven't stayed the course (impatience)

This final one is the single hardest message to drill into clients.

If you've been grafting for 6+ months and you feel fed up with lack of results? You just don't realise how close you are 😫

You already mastered the hardest part! Just make it easier to keep showing up:

- Shorter sessions
- Less sessions (eg. 2-3, not 4-6)
- At more convenient times
- With exercises you can try to enjoy

You don't embark on a fitness journey of going to the gym... so that eventually you can stop going to the gym because you 'made it'.

Make the hard work you've put in count for something by adapting your process.

Want to know how to make it all click? I can show you in less than 15 minutes with my free training - video link is in my bio 👍🏽

It may not be easy.

But it sure as hell isn't complicated.

I see people struggling with all types of pain, daily - and I've been there myself.

Feeling like you can't shake the most frustrating injury issues is not a place you want to be long term, trust me.

If you want a free guide to my 4-step path out of the madness, comment 'TRAINING' below and I'll send you the link.

‘To what extent can you do what you need your body to do?’

Simple question.

If you ‘had’ to be able to execute a particular movement to save your life, how far would your body permit you to do that?

(Bear in mind there is a difference between what you think you can do, and what your body can actually do - you’re probably stronger than you realise).

The only way to discover the answer to this question, is to find out…

It doesn’t matter how old or experienced you are - you have to start somewhere.

Step in the arena and try your hand at picking up something you find heavy (with professional guidance on your safety/form if necessary).

Hang from a bar for dear life, and see how many seconds you last. Write it down.

Run at a slow steady pace for an extended duration, and see how long before your body is telling you to stop (and is it down to respiratory, muscular, or structural limitations?). It doesn’t matter whether it’s 5 seconds or 5 minutes.

Move at the fastest speed you are physically capable of and make a note of that speed (safely, of course).

These are all very simple and non-specific examples, I know - but you know what?

People are out there drowning in information. *None* of the details matter if you are so paralysed by them that they prevent you from action.

Getting out there and putting your body to some simple mini-tests is the first step in the journey of a thousand miles.

I’ve got a free 15-minute training video link in my bio, if you’re keen to put your first foot forward.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Last year’s November fitness challenge for my community was all about developing mobility, strength and unstoppable speed/power.

This time, it’s all about getting your metabolism firing and getting you finishing the year with consistency & intent.

~The 30-day Metabolic Shift~

It’s time to put your foot down - No more ‘I’ll start again in January’ talk.

Your time is now.

Although there are so many ways to improve metabolism and overall health - my big 3 exercise related activities for you are:

1) Low intensity steady state exercise
2) High intensity, heart rate spiking exercise
3) Strength training

These 3 combined, help us build & maintain muscle mass, have a high Vo2 max (the 2 biggest factors for life expectancy), as well as maintain low blood pressure, bone density, healthy joints, and the other 1000 benefits of daily exercise.

For 30 days, your challenge will be to carry out (on average) at least one of these activities per day.

You'll be entered into a private group within my WhatsApp community, (P.S. you can join for free us at any time via the link) where I'll provide you with sessions plans for each.

And won’t take up much of your week at all:

- The steady state cardio lasts 20 mins
- The high intensity HR spike lasts 8 mins
- The strength training last 15 mins

They can be done individually or combined together, and by the end of the month, you will have accumulated at least 30 of these mini-workouts, laying the foundations for some excellent metabolic health and daily performance outcomes in the process.

All activity difficulties will be programmed by me and relative to the individual, so this is challenge is open to *all ages and abilities*

You can sign up via the link in my story or DM/comment 'IN' (£10 entry), I'll enter you into the separate group and provide you with the workout plans & instructions to complete the challenge 💪🏽

Any questions, fire away 🔥 look forward to seeing you in the group by the 31st October!

My Journey...

Over the years I have accumulated a lot of experience as a trainer.

I have worked with and coached movement to every type of person on my journey; from fundamental movement for toddlers to corrective exercise and mobility for pensioners. From mid-lifers battling sedentary lifestyle to elite athletes looking for the finest edge in professional performance.

I know what to do with people who want a dramatic transformation in very little time, guys and girls who want to get in shape for their wedding day or their upcoming holiday, or even people who just love a bit of regular exercise and want to stay healthy for a long happy life!

Whatever your story is, I'd be delighted to lend an ear, offer my support, and commit my knowledge and experience to helping you get where you need to be.
