Here’s what they tell you about Graves’ Disease while you’re suffering:

Your body acts as if it’s in a constant state of anxiety. Your heart races. Your hands shake. Your focus disappears. You lose weight without trying. Your thyroid produces excess hormone because your immune system is attacking your own body.

Here’s what they don’t tell you about Graves:
You are hungry — all the time. You’re told to manage calories and nutrients while battling relentless hunger, but once medication reverses the symptoms, your metabolism slows dramatically. Weight rebounds fast. Your body has also burned through muscle as fuel, leaving your resting calorie needs much lower than before.

Depression can creep in. Not just from chemical shifts, but from feeling misunderstood. From watching your body change. From struggling at work due to brain fog and fatigue — while others don’t see what’s happening behind the scenes.

You stop wanting to go out. You don’t feel like yourself anymore. You’ve changed physically — often through rapid weight gain — and you don’t want to be seen as a version of yourself that doesn’t feel like you.

You lose hair. A lot of it. And with it, confidence and connection to your body.
Your skin changes. You feel like you’ve aged ten years overnight. Graves’ consumes collagen and muscle in its constant demand for energy — your body stuck in the “ON” position 24/7.

You feel like a fraud. Trying to coach others toward health while losing 8kg, then gaining 16+kg in eight months brings the brutal thought: Why would anyone listen to me?

And no one really prepares you for the timeline. It can take 6+ months just for weight to plateau — not lose — and another 12–24 months to undo what your body did to protect itself, once symptoms are managed.

And this part goes beyond Graves’ Disease:
If you’ve lived for years in survival mode — through illness, stress, trauma, or chronic habits — change is hard. Not because you’re weak, but because your nervous system learned those patterns to keep you safe.

If that’s you: you are seen, understood, and not broken. Change isn’t forcing yourself to “do better.” It’s rebuilding trust with your body, one patient step at a time.

Did you know?

Many women over 30 struggle with weight or energy, and its not because you're "lazy", but because of other factors such as hormones, metabolism and life stresses.

At Hype Performance and Health, we focus on:
Workouts that promote healthier women who want to stay active in the long run well into their 60s and beyond
Nutrition guidance that is family friendly, realistic and sustainable
A supportive space where you can focus on YOU, without pressure or comparison.

You no longer need to fight your body - you need to train it, support it and respect it.

I read two separate posts today that really resonated with me. One was about holding higher standards for yourself, and the other was about feeling fear and doing the thing anyway.

I could go way deeper into both (and probably will at some point 🤣), but here’s what they stirred up in me today:

RAISING PERSONAL STANDARDS
This one is about how you show up for yourself every single day — and what you’re willing to accept.
Are you accepting the same excuses you keep telling yourself?
Do you believe you deserve more, yet don’t act in alignment with that belief?
Or are you holding yourself to a higher standard and choosing to show up, even when it’s uncomfortable?

FEEL THE FEAR
This one really highlighted how often we keep ourselves comfortable.

Our bodies are incredible. And when someone says, “I just self-sabotage” or “I can’t do it,” what I actually hear is:
“My body got uncomfortable with something new — a workout, a nutrition change, a new routine — and it told me to stop because it wants to keep me safe.”

That’s not weakness. That’s biology.
Your body has one main job: to keep you alive.
So it gravitates toward what feels familiar and “safe” — sleeping instead of training, comfort foods instead of nourishing choices, the same routine instead of new patterns — because it already knows how that story goes.

But here’s the truth:
You don’t change in comfort.
You don’t give your body or mind the chance to learn that change is actually safe — and often exactly what you need.

Growth happens when you gently push past that edge, show up anyway, and prove to yourself that you’re capable of more.

And if you’re ready to raise your standards and move through that fear — not alone, but with support — that’s exactly the space I help people step into every day 💪

"I'm exhausted, I barely have time to eat, let alone exercise. And every time I try, I feel like I am failing".

Oh mumma, I have been you. Juggling work, kids, school runs, and everything in between.

The constant fight against it all, frustrated because I know something has to change, but just unsure on how to make it all work.

That is why I created Hype Performance and Health - my private studio for women who feel they need:

A space where you can focus on yourself without worrying about what to do with the kids
Flexible sessions that actually fit your schedule
Bring your kids - because your health shouldn't come at the cost of family time

You don't have to 'fit in' gym time, you can make it part of your day, and be surrounded by other women who know EXACTLY what it is like - no BS, no show offs, no clickiness - just real people with real lives.

You deserve to feel like you again. See you in class.

And I am back after being quiet for some time!

Whilst I have been quiet, we have still been showing up for ourselves here at Hype, even more so after my unexpected diagnosis of Graves Disease.

In June this year, after 6 months of seeking answers as to why my body was operating at a pace I couldn't keep up with - anxiety, fatigue, weight loss, heart racing, brain fog, and loss of strength- it felt like I was no longer in the drivers seat of my own life.

And here it was - the diagnosis that would become the start of a transformation I had never expected.

I had two choices: let the diagnosis define me, or step into a new chapter and learn how to live WITH it, not against it. As someone with a Biomedical Science background, I dove into research, the physiology and the WHY behind the symptoms. But knowing the science didn't make the healing easy, it made it REAL.

There have been days I felt strong, and days I felt like I was starting from zero.

But slowly - day by day - I've been rebuilding.

Learning to listen to my body in a way I never have before.

Learning to work WITH it, instead of fighting against it.

Learning how to nourish it, rest it, and RESPECT it.

And now, I'm retuning not just as the person who left...
but someone wiser, softer, stronger.

Someone who wants to use what I've learned to help others walk a similar path. Because autoimmune conditions can feel invisible to others whilst you battle in silence, but I see you.

So consider this my comeback post - a return after the storm - still on my journey, still learning every day, but I am here.... and I am ready to share more openly about life with Graves Disease, rebuilding strength, and finding empowerment through understanding our own bodies.

If you're going through something similar - I see you. The journey is hard, but you are not weak for struggling.

You are strong for continuing.

There's no such thing as "Self Sabotage", and here's why:

The idea of 'self sabotage' is often used to describe behaviours that seem to go against a person's own best interests, but in reality, there's always a deeper reason behind those actions, and how your mind/body reacts to this, Here's why the concept of self sabotaging is misleading:

1. Your mind and body only want to do the best by you:
The sole purpose of your subconscious mind and body is to PROTECT YOU. However, it has learned behaviours that we have instilled over a period of time, and these behaviours are seen by the body as 'comfortable' aka- keeping me alive and happy. Think of this: You start to work out. Your internal voice starts to make you question "Hold on, what are we doing? This is more work than I'm used to" and it begins to raise its voice and continually tell you to STOP!! Because it perceives you as trying to do damage. However, the more you do it, the less the voice keeps telling you to stop, because it realises that this is actually not going to kill you, instead help you become healthier.

2. Every behaviour serves a purpose:
What looks like self sabotage is actually your coping mechanism. Whether its procrastination (I'll start tomorrow/next week/never...), avoidance (I don't have to do that, I can just sit here and I'll be fine, right?) or destructive habits (hello block of chocolate in once sitting), these behaviours usually stem from past experiences, fear, or unprocessed emotions.

3. Change requires awareness, not force:
Rather than try to "stop self sabotaging", it's more effective to understand what underlying need is being met by expressing this behaviour, and finding alterative ways to address the root cause.

This is one of the many subjects we discuss and assess in our one on one coaching sessions, along with good nutrition habits and exercise based on your ultimate goals.

What behaviours have you demonstrated when it comes to health and fitness and how can we help you overcome these?

Hello there are a few new peeps joining us here, so I wanted to take a moment to share a few things.

My name is Anthea, some call me Ant (it’s just easier 😂). I run Hype Performance and Health and coach one on one clients and group fitness classes. I am a single mum, have 2 amazing kids and a giant dog who are my world.

I wasn’t always a coach and business owner. I completed my Bachelor of Biomedical Science Degree and then began my career in Pathology - I was a multiskilled scientist working predominantly in Transfusion and Histology ( I would assist in preparing various pieces of body parts to be able to view under a microscope to assist in diagnosing disease.)

I began my transition into the health and fitness realm when my ex husband and I started up an online supplement business and I finished studying for my certificate 3 / 4 in Fitness. From there I began my coaching in Les Mills BodyPump classes, writing programs for clients of the gym worked in, and finally ventured into women’s only coaching and one on one clients.

Since then I created my own business, and after 2020 decided to create my own personal studio, which is where I currently work from. My journey has spanned over 15 years, including having to rebuild my business many times after having kids, COVID and other life challenges. But I did it!

Personally, I have tried most things - from Gymnastics and Netball as a child, to half marathons, Powerlifting Competitions, Crossfit Competitions, Boxing, I love it all and am always looking to learn more about sports, health and fitness.

My absolute passion though, is being there for my clients and seeing them create healthy habits, break cycles they felt stuck in (especially when it comes to nutrition) and become beautiful role models for those around them.

You're not going to change....

You're not going to change doing the same thing every day.

You're not going to change by feeling upset at yourself because you don't feel or look as good as you think you should.

You're not going to change sitting there thinking about a time you should start but just haven't.

You're not going to change if you allow your children to be the excuse why you haven't started to look after yourself.

Make the change, for you. And let us help you.

You deserve more than the stress and overwhelm of a "normal" gym experience.

👉 The thought of walking into a packed gym full of strangers, not knowing where to start, or how to stay consistent—it’s intimidating. Add kids into the mix, and it feels almost impossible. Between the extra cost of crèches, limited hours, and the sound of your little one crying for you down the hall… you start to wonder if prioritizing yourself is even worth it.

So you wait. You tell yourself, “One day, I’ll get my time.”
