💪 Why strength matters for mums

Motherhood doesn’t make you weak.
But it does change your body.

Strength training is how you rebuild stability, confidence, and control.

• Fewer aches and niggles
• Stronger hips and backs
• Better posture for feeding, carrying, pushing
• Easier lifts, off the floor, into the car, through the day

🚫 It’s not about “bouncing back”
🚫 It’s not about smashing yourself

It’s about feeling solid in your own body again.

Cardio keeps you fit.
👉 Strength keeps you capable.

That’s what we focus on at Absolute Fitness.

💙 Health does not stand still. Without support, it slowly declines. It does not have to.

If fitness has not stuck before, it does not mean you failed. It likely just means you had not yet found something that genuinely fit your life.

✨ Most people do not come to us wanting a six pack. They come because they want to feel like themselves again. Many have not trained consistently for a long time, and what they often notice first is feeling steadier, more capable, and more confident physically.

This is not about making up for the past. It is about taking care of your future.

🌱 This is about moving better day-to-day, feeling steadier, lifting things more comfortably, and feeling at ease in your body.

✨ Here is what that actually looks like when you train with us:
📝 a personalised program built around your body, your goals, and your real life
🎯 coaching and structure every session, so you always know what to do and how to do it
🤝 a supportive environment, so you never feel out of place or left behind
👥 up to 8 people per session, so you get attention without feeling on show
✅ limited spaces to protect coaching quality and your results

📅 Monthly options
1 x per week – £175 (£44 per session)
2 x per week – £275 (£34 per session)
3 x per week – £375 (£31 per session)

✨ New members get 20 percent off their first two months to help build momentum.

🌐 www.absolute-fitness.je

🕰 If you have been thinking about doing something for a while, this is a sensible place to start.

🗣 Start with a relaxed conversation and a gentle movement assessment. From there, we make a sensible plan.

🤍 We only want people training with us because it is genuinely helping them, not because they feel stuck in a contract. You can train for your first month and, if it does not feel right, you are not tied in.

Member of the Month: Richard 😍💪

This month goes to someone who quietly put in a serious shift.

On top of his regular training, Richard clocked up 80 miles across November to support his nephew’s daily running challenge. Most days he came into the gym with that unmistakeable post-run waddle… and still refused to take the easier option. Any time we asked whether he wanted the tougher leg work swapped out, the answer was a straight “no” even though you could see he really wanted to say “yes”.

He got involved in every single gym challenge, gave it everything, and never cared where he ranked, only that he pushed himself further each time.

Relentless effort. Zero drama. Huge engine.
A well-earned Member of the Month.

👶 Calling all mums!
We’re exploring a new way to make training work for you, and we’d love your input 💪

We are trying to plan an hour or two window, where we have mums and young children attend our semi private sessions. I know more gym's that allow mums and children are needed as my partner has struggled to gym for the past 2.5 years! Unfortunately when my son was this young we didn't have the gym to help us!

So if you're a mum struggling to find time to train, please take a moment to complete our quick survey below.

It only takes a minute, and your answers will help us decide:
🕒 When to run the sessions
👩‍🍼 Which age groups to cater for
📆 How often to run them

There’s plenty of free parking right outside, and we’re making sure the setup works comfortably for both you and your baby.

Your feedback will directly shape what we offer next, and if you’d like, we’ll let you know as soon as sessions launch.

Post 5 – Nutrition & Supplements for Strong Bones

Exercise is vital for protecting bone health, but what you eat and supplement with can make just as much difference. Bones are not just calcium – they are living tissue made from a complex mix of minerals and protein.

Key nutrients for bone health

Calcium – the building block of bone. Best from food (milk, yoghurt, cheese, fortified plant milks, leafy greens, nuts, seeds). Supplements are useful if intake is low, but diet should come first.

Vitamin D – helps the body absorb calcium. Sunlight is the main source, but in places with limited sun, oily fish (salmon, sardines, mackerel) and supplementation are often needed.

Protein – here’s the part that surprised even me: around 50% of bone volume is protein, mostly in the form of collagen. That’s the flexible framework that minerals attach to, giving bone both strength and resilience. It’s one more reason to keep protein intake high – not just for muscle, but for bones too. (Yes, protein again. Always protein. Dan with the protein.)

Vitamin K2 – helps direct calcium into bones rather than soft tissues. Found in fermented foods (like natto), some cheeses, and available in supplement form.

Magnesium – supports bone mineralisation and vitamin D metabolism. Found in nuts, seeds, whole grains, and dark leafy greens.

What doesn’t work alone
Relying only on calcium tablets or a single “bone health” product isn’t enough. Without bone-loading activity, your body has no reason to hold onto those minerals. The real benefit comes when diet, supplements, and training work together.

The bigger picture

Adequate calories → under-eating accelerates bone loss.

Limiting alcohol and avoiding smoking → both harm bone tissue.

Balanced nutrition → consistency matters more than any one “superfood.”

Strong bones are built by combining smart training with the right nutrition. It isn’t about chasing one magic nutrient – it’s about giving your body the full set of tools it needs to remodel, repair, and protect itself.

👉 That concludes this 5-part series on osteoporosis. Stay tuned for more deep dives into health, training, and long-term wellbeing.

Post 4 - What Actually Helps

If walking, swimming, or cycling aren’t enough to protect your bones, what does work?

Resistance training
The single most effective way to strengthen bone is through resistance training. When muscles pull against bone under load, the bone responds by becoming denser and stronger. This is known as mechanical loading. Heavy is relative – it simply means lifting enough weight to challenge your body, and gradually progressing over time.

Walking – with and without a weight vest
Normal walking is excellent for overall health, but it doesn’t provide enough stress to build bone strength. Adding a weight vest increases the load on your hips and spine, which makes walking more effective. Still, it doesn’t match the benefits of resistance training. Think of it as a useful addition, but not a substitute.

Balance and mobility training
While not a direct builder of bone density, balance and mobility work are critical for reducing falls. Strong bones are important, but preventing a fall in the first place is just as valuable.

Lifestyle factors

Adequate sleep → recovery and hormone regulation.

Avoiding smoking and excess alcohol → both accelerate bone loss.

Supporting hormone health → oestrogen and testosterone play a direct role in bone strength.

When combined, these factors create a powerful foundation: bones that are not only denser, but also supported by stronger muscles, better balance, and healthier daily habits.

👉 In the final post of this series, we’ll explore nutrition and supplements – the role of protein, calcium, vitamin D, and more in protecting your bones.

Post 3 - What Isn’t Good Enough (and Why)

Many people believe they’re already protecting their bones – but the truth is, some common habits simply aren’t enough.

Walking
Walking is excellent for heart health and mobility, but for bone strength it does little more than help maintain what you already have. It doesn’t provide the level of stress bones need to grow stronger.

Walking with a weight vest
This does increase the challenge, especially through the hips and spine, and makes walking more effective than normal. But even with added weight, it still falls short compared to the stimulus provided by structured resistance training.

Swimming
Great for cardiovascular health and joint mobility, but water supports body weight – meaning the bones aren’t bearing load. This makes it poor for maintaining or improving bone density.

Cycling
Excellent for endurance, but like swimming it is non-weight-bearing. Studies show dedicated cyclists often have lower bone density compared to those who lift weights or run.

Calcium tablets alone
Without bone-loading activity, extra calcium has little effect. The body needs a reason to retain those minerals – and that reason is mechanical stress on the skeleton.

“I’m active, so I’m fine”
Not all activity strengthens bone. For adaptation to occur, bones need load – either impact or resistance – not just movement.

👉 In the next post, we’ll look at what really does work – from resistance training to lifestyle changes – and how much difference it can make.
