Seeing it through and keeping our philosophy intact should always be seen as one of our strengths.

Seeing it through means we are developing stronger minds, not wilting under pressure to take the easy way out or quit, we become stronger every time we beat that feeling to take the easy way out.

We do have a remarkable amount of individuals who are changing quickly. The foundation of how they do it is very strong too.

Eating real food is sustainable, and getting educated how to eat properly and why we do it is vital. This means your results are always going to last, and you will develop an ever-increasing amount of energy.

Your training is sustainable too. You are encouraged to get stronger, to recover quicker in between each exercise, you are encouraged to become a better runner, cyclist, weight trainer, and become an “athlete” in all true meanings of the word.

You shouldn’t accept the fact that you may have bad balance, through our training you have every opportunity to get much better balance, to strengthen your core and become ready for anything that life has to throw at you.

Real fitness doesn’t mean relying on machines.

Real fitness means learning much more natural movements, getting your body to move in the way it was supposed to, become much more flexible and really sharpening up your reaction times.

Keep training the right way, don’t fall for yet another faddy diet, and really see this through because you know if you give it enough time, it’s going to work big time for you!!!

When you look back at your life, the moments you will be most proud of will likely be the ones where you stepped out of your comfort zone in the pursuit of something you believed in.

Don’t allow the lull of comfort to stop you getting what you really want.

If you don’t go for it this time, then you will keep putting it off until it’s so far at the back of your mind you never get it done.

Allow yourself to dream big, to set big goals, and focus on things that really stretch you.

It’s never too late. Each day is an opportunity to start again, to move in a new direction or confirm the good direction you are already on.

If you’re honest with yourself, you will know where you are playing it safe and where you could do better or improve upon.

You can’t choose safety when you are trying to get the best out of yourself every day.

You can’t pursue greatness AND comfort at the same time.

Step out of your comfort zone in set some goals to get there. It’s all about growing as a person too.

A good strategy is to tell a close friend of a goal you really want to achieve, and tell them to check in on you regularly to see how you are getting on.

Do the same for them so you can both keep a focus and work towards something together.

Make sure you both celebrate the goals when you get there!!

Big moments in your progress, both inside and out, come together once you get your programme working for you in all areas.

Committing yourself to training a minimum of three times a week is vital. Then you will realise the big positive impact it’s having on your life in all areas.

You will get rid of ugly habits and replace them with healthy ones, but ugly habits can sometimes creep back in when you least expect them.

Something stressful may happen that sets you back, causing you to revert to your old comforts. You may skip a workout and stay home.

You may reach for ice cream instead of healthy food when you are stressed out.

We all do it from time to time, but your ability to recognise when ugly habits reappear will help you stop them dead in their tracks.

The most important thing to remember is tomorrow is a new day.

If you eat something bad, miss a workout, train with less effort than normal, then don’t let it get you down.

We all deserve a break sometimes, and small little slip ups are never going to ruin your progress overall.

Remember why you got into this programme in the first place, how you want your body to look, even if it’s a bad week, get back in the saddle and start where you left off.

If things get too ugly and you feel helpless, then contact us and we will help you get right back into it and back in the groove again. Everyone makes good progress, but everyone gets moments of doubt and falls off the wagon from time to time.

Your next workout is your most important session when it comes to making sure your improvements come thick and fast. If you aren’t training a minimum of 3 times a week, you are unlikely to be improving as well as you could be.

Missing workouts is the single biggest factor in you never realising your potential.

If you miss a week, then it will take you 1-2 weeks to get back to normal.

Miss a month and you will find it very hard just to get back into training again.

Consistency will always be your best friend.

100% of the time, the individuals you see with before and after photos that are impressive are always the ones who never miss a session, always workout hard to the best of their ability, and are totally committed to taking that next step forward all the time.

Your next workout should be one of fresh opportunity, fresh optimism, and a realisation that you will have even more endurance and strength to push yourself that little bit more next time.

Big changes in your body are the results of many, many workouts where you gave that little bit more each time.

When you change your body, you change your mind very much for the better too. You think better and more clearly, you become stronger and you become much more positive.

Looking forward to workouts and fresh improvements every week is entirely possible. Showing up regularly is your most important step every time, even if at times you don’t even feel like it after a tough day.

Keep making it happen and see the progress continuing!!

Great question today about which ONE exercise is best for core?

The best answer I always give to that question is that there isn’t just one exercise, it’s EVERYTHING IN YOUR PROGRAMME that will give you your best and strongest core.

We do everything for a reason, and all we do is aimed at getting your waist down, your hips down but not only that. You need to be much stronger with your core too because it’s the central source of power for your body, and where all your strength comes from too.

You work hard on your weights and your core is a prime mover on every exercise. As you lift more, your core gets stronger.

You put a lot of exercises in on the TRX, vipr, Bulgarian bag and your core takes a pounding. All of those movements require so much strength and power.

Your medicine ball work requires you to be a certain level on core strength before you even attempt it. Steadily increasing your tolerance to medicine ball exercise is critical for your overall development.

Think of the tyres outside, the sledgehammer, the prowler-all are massive power movements that hit your things, hamstrings, hips, stomach, back-all that are vital in making up your core.

When you run, when you sprint through our ladders, cones, hurdles etc, your core is on fire.

The workouts we do on the grass are absolutely massive for core as most of you will know, getting to work deeper into your muscles than ever before.

So the bottom line is that EVERYTHING works for you and a stronger core will make you look, perform and feel at your very best, so keep hitting it from all angles!!
