My Path To A Better Me

I keep getting anxious during this lockdown, I had to find to find something to calm the soul...

I've been playing around with different techniques and mediums. I'd forgotten how much I love painting.

Walking for R U OK!

👉Kick-off has begun and will run till the 22nd of May.

Did you know that 65,000 Australians attempt to take their life each year? We believe that gives us 65,000 reasons to get active for a great cause!

🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️Help Kane and I raise $1000 for this amazing charity.

As an added incentive, we will walk (not run) 1km (between us) for every $10 donated... if the $1000 is raised that is 100kms that we have to walk between us.

If you know us, you know we don't like cardio, nope, not even walking 😵

Kane and I have started it off with a $150 donation, that's 15kms to walk only 85 left to go.

Every year over 65,000 Australians attempt to take their lives – that gives me 65,000 reasons to Tread As One. I’d really appreciate your support – every donation helps.

Leg day. By far my least favourite day.

Almost every week my lower back decides it wants hurt and the struggle for leg day grows.

So what gets me to the gym?

The reminder that most of the time I will walk out after legs day feeling better than I went in. The warm up and exercises help my back feel a little better.

It's a challenge every week but that's half the fun.

Warm chicken salad 🥗

This was so yummy I had to make it again.
2nd time it might not look as pretty but still tastes great!

👉What's something you like to do when you're feeling out of sorts?

I'm feeling pretty anxious today, so I'm hitting the home gym for a workout. It always helps me get some of the built up energy out.

There are so many befits of exercise than just getting fit 😍

⚠️Eating healthy food to gain weight never has to be boring⚠️

Have you tried eating boring and bland food like boiled chicken, rice and broccoli in order to gain weight?

How long did you last before you gave up?

This isn't a lack of will power, you simply didn't enjoy your food. And if you don't enjoy it, you're fighting an uphill battle.

👉A priority for all my meals is flavour, colour, variety and different textures.

In order for me to stay on track and continue to strive for my goals, I need to keep my food interesting, it's the only way you'll enjoy the journey.

Minor change but big achievement with my hex bar deadlifts this week.

It's been well over 12 months since I've had this in my program. It's a very difficult exercise for me to do because of my lower back pain.

The past 10 weeks I have been slowly increasing the weight and working on ROM.

This week I managed to take the weight to the floor, this is a HUGE achievement for me 🥳

Photos at sunset are so pretty.

Looking up through my favourite tree you can see the moon. I love the silhouette.

Making sure I remember to appreciate the little things ❤️
