Takeaways and eating out is “fun” until you start eating them too often, and your blood pressure goes up, your weight goes up, your clothes don’t fit anymore, your body aches and pains more.

The “fun” may have been fun while it lasted, but you may have dug yourself into a hole now.Having a couple of glasses of wine/a few beers to “relieve the stress”, done a bit too often may have worked until your blood pressure rose, you piled on weight, you started having wild mood swings, you couldn’t be bothered to do much.

Good food is meant to be enjoyed but when you add a ton of salt to your cooking, your blood pressure can raise, you can feel bloated, and although food may taste a little nicer, was it worth the salt destroying your health over time and being on tablets for the foreseeable?

Kind of like having sugar in your coffee, nice but you know there’s going to be a price with your health long term.You may be training well but you CANNOT OUT-TRAIN A BAD DIET!!!!!

People may hate it but my duty is to tell the truth.

I have trained a huge amount of people who have turned it around, ditched those habits and lived much better lives. Nothing wrong with a treat occasionaly of course not, but when done regularly, THAT is the killer!!Make the choice BUT be honest with yourself.

Comparison but can be a killer….and an inspiration.

When you are unfit and in pain, the person next to you at the gym may be flying along and making life look easy, IT’S NOT, they went through the SAME pain themselves, faced the same struggles but somehow kept going (even when some told them not to), they didn’t settle for fads and gimmicks, they kept their heads down and got big results instead over time.Don’t compare yourself to them right now, but you can greatly close the gap if you are prepared to show up, work hard, inch by inch get a little better each week and if you stay with it, you will eventually become the one that people want to be in fitness terms, when the next beginner starts and wonders “will I ever become that fit and healthy”?!!

!The best time to get fit was probably a few months ago or even a few years ago but the next best time is TODAY.

Don’t have any regrets about the past, just concentrate on how you can get better right now, live in the moment and give it everything you have and big rewards will always come.
