A lot of the time we spend too much wishing we had more time.

But if you spend less time thinking and do some more doing, you’ll find it easier to be more active.

All you really need is:

*The right mindset

*To THINK LESS and DO MORE

*TAKE ACTION!

Ways I stay active:

* Walk to the shop instead of drive
* Park further away when I do drive somewhere (even a 4 min walk there and then back will add up over time)
* Stand more often e.g. when on the phone or sending emails - this usually leads to more steps or general movements.
* Stack 2 things together e.g. the kettle boiling with a plank hold
* Sometimes I run to appointments like my nails 😂
* And a BIG one: CHANGE the mindset! 20 minutes is enough time for a walk or for a workout. It is always better than the one you don’t do.

Keeping on top of your nutrition as a mum can be really tough, I’ve learnt this first hand since having Tommy👶

But it doesn’t have to be that way!

Instead of not planning your foods or just grabbing the kids leftovers, you need to be choosing foods that energise you and make you feel good. You put in effort for their meals and you should do the same for yours!

For me, fueling myself also means
* Keeping my energy up after long nights
* Being able to think clearly for home and work
* Keeping my patience with others
* Feeling happy
* Supporting my running and training

Thanks guys...i think 😂

At least I can tell who our tough love clients are!

But I am sooo proud of today's 17km run 😃😃 I maintained a heart rate lower than usual and I spent 80 minutes in zone 2 compared to a 15km run earlier this year where I had 0 minutes in zone 2 and 70 minutes in zone 4! So I've seen a huge improvement in my running efficency and my fitness.

"I will never be a runner" - something I used to say to myself

And something a lot of members say to me

So how did I become a runner?

(Well, if you put some trainers on and go for a run - even for 2 minutes - technically you're a runner!)

Some things that have helped me to be able to improve my distance, heart rate and overall running efficency:

➡️ I did a lot of shorter runs before I started increasing the distance

➡️ I don't compare my stats to other people. Yes, there might be quicker people, or fitter people than me. There always will be! But I've always focused on my effort, my improvements and my results.

➡️ having performance goals and a structure has been useful. E.g. having a 4 week rotation of variety (speed, distance, intervals etc)

➡️ I don't always aim to improve time or distance, sometimes it's just nice to run without any targets!

➡️ I have support and encouragement from a group of people who have similar goals. We all experience low motivation days, but we show up because we said we would.

➡️ I've been consistent! I've been someone who I'd label a 'runner' now for over 5 years! It takes time to improve 🥰

Results take a while. But they take even longer if you don't try 💪

The training split I’d recommend if you’re a busy mum (or busy anyone!)

When you’re short on time, it can feel like there’s not much point in having a set training schedule. But there’s so much you can do with a short time!

Some great options for a quick but effective workout are supersets to pair exercises or AMRAPs to increase the intensity. But, my NUMBER 1 tip… is to follow a ‘full body split’🏋️

What might this look like? Here’s a great example of what 3 days of full body training could look like:

* Monday:
* Squats 4 x 10
* Barbell overhead press 4 x 6-8
* Barbell chest press 4 x 10

3 rounds of
* Kettlebell swing x15
* Box step or jump x15
* Row/ski x 500m

Wednesday
* Deadlifts 4 x 8

4 rounds of
* Pull up or inverted row until failure
* Push up until failure

4 rounds of
* Walking lunge x20
* Goblet squats x20

Friday
* 1000m row
* Sprints 20 sec on 20 sec off x8

3 rounds of
* Single arm press x8 each
* Single arm row x8 each
* Single leg RDL x8 each
* Single leg step up x8 each
(all heavy)

* 500m row
* Sprints 20 sec on 20 sec off x4

Paired with some active rest days in between where you might go for a walk to the shop instead of driving - you’ve got an effective workout split!

Save this post and give it a go next week - I’d love to know how you get on!📩

Sunday is usually a 'sit on the sofa in PJs day' so it was nice to dress up today 🥂

- family time
- 3 course meal (then 3 extra puddings 🫣😂)
- prosecco
- home for ice cream in pjs & Strictly results
A sunday well spent I'd say 🙌

Not a cheat day, or a weekend off. Simply a Sunday. I am still firmly on track for my goals because it's a LIFESTYLE and the plan should involve a little bit of all the things we love 🥰

A controversial one maybe? It’s all the craze at the moment - the weight loss injections.

Is it lazy? Is it a hack to achieving your goals? My opinion has changed over the last few years.

What do you think? Let me know in the comments.
