𝗠𝗬 𝗝𝗢𝗕 𝗗𝗢𝗘𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗗𝗘𝗙𝗜𝗡𝗘 𝗠𝗘

When you live and breath your career its very common to get swept up in it all.
As passionate as I am with my job I sometimes have to take a step back and remember that it doesn't define me, I am so much more than my career and having a work life balance is so important.

So here are some none gym related fun facts about me 🤪

🔴 My favourite food is fish & chips and chocolate cake!

⚫️ I have a very weirdly good memory. I remember specific events that happen to the point I can tell you the exact date it happened on.

🔴 I built a house by myself and live by myself (independent queen some would say 😝)

⚫️ I have 10 tattoos 💉

🔴 I hate driving to places I've never been before, I'll avoid it at all costs.

⚫️ I haven't eaten Macca’s, KFC or Hungry Jacks in over 8 years. Not for the fact of ‘health’ it's just me being competitive and now I don’t want to lose my streak 😂

Hands up if you've stepped into the gym with no plan or structure?

Like I've said many of times we end up walking into the gym with no clue what to do because there is no structure, so we stick to the treadmill then do a few sit ups and call it a day 🫠

Having an understanding on when you're going to train, what you're going to train and recording you training session will give you the biggest advantage in making progress as well as giving you more confidence inside the gym.

Investing in coaching will give you the structure you need and allow you to walk into the gym with confidence and a better understanding with your training, as well as being able to reach your goals sooner.

So if you're sitting on the fence about investing in your health I would 100% say to DO IT!

Personal Training and online coaching is available!

The lack of not knowing technique with a movement can be a tricky obstacle to try and get over. Sometimes we are too scared to try a new movement because we are too worried about if A) we are going to do it correctly or B) if someone around us will be looking at us thinking "wtf are they doing"

So we shimmy back into our corner and stick to the 4 movements we know how to do. Now what if I told you that sticking to those 4 movements you're comfortable with aren’t giving you much help with making progress in the gym?

Having a fear of not knowing the correct technique in movements is totally normal and it can be easily fixed by seeing a coach face to face to get the guidance and understanding so that you are able to use more of the gym equipment that is available at the gym.

"But I don’t want regular PT session " thats okay - Just because you see a personal trainer doesn’t mean you're stuck with them forever. Maybe it might just be a few sessions to brush up on technique? Maybe its a fortnightly or monthly face to face sessions to get more guidance and review your goals.

I got into this career because I want to be able to help as many people as I can, whether that be helping them loose weight, help them improve their strength or better their technique.

If you're thinking about getting in touch to help better your health and fitness, make the jump and book in for a session

Real time feedback is so important when it comes to training in a gym and especially when you're a newbie. Getting that real time and hands on feedback allows clients to be more efficient and effective with both technique and performance.

𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗿 - Your coach is able to teach and show the correct and safe way to performance movements as well as provide that real time feedback that you're able to immediately use to make changes to your technique and performance.

𝗥𝗲𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗶𝘀𝗸 𝗼𝗳 𝗶𝗻𝗷𝘂𝗿𝘆 - Having the ability to review your technique on the spot and make corrections allow you to safely perform the exercise and minimise the risk of injury

𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗿𝗼𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗼𝘂𝘁 - If you're performing movements incorrectly it doesn’t matter how many time you do it, you will never see the improvements that you wants (and if you do it will be at a snails pace or at the risk of injuring yourself) . The real time feedback allows you to adjust the way you are performing the exercise so that you are able to to make them as effective as possible, which results in gains 😜

Face to face coaching is available but time slots are limited. DM for further information

"If you're a coach then why don’t you just coach yourself?"

Here's just a few reasons why 👇

🔴 Keeps me accountable

⚫️ Programs what I need to improve and not what I like (I can tell you know, if I was doing my own programming I would not put in split squats ☠️)

🔴 I'm able to get feedback & opinion on my training and lifting

⚫️ Less thinking for me when it comes to training. The last thing I want to do when coaching all day is to program for yourself

🔴 I'm able to learn and grow as a coach through guidance of another experienced coach

⚫️ The best progress I've made so far with my own training is since hiring a coach

Have you thought about looking into face to face sessions but a bit unsure what to expect from them?
Well here's a quick run down on what to expect when you book in for a face to face session with me 😄

★𝗕𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: I'll get in contact with you to get some training history from you and we will work on some goals you may have or discuss what you are looking to get out from the face to face sessions.

★ 𝗗𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: First face to face session I always like to strip everything back and work with the basics. We will go through the essential movement patterns of the lifts and we will ALWAYS start with lightweight. I'm a huge believer that a beginner should always start with a lightweight, even if they think they can go heavier. If you're returning from time off from the gym or your brand new your body is going to be under enough stress as it is, no need to put it under more stress by adding heavy weighs to the mix.

★ 𝗔𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘀𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Same as before you session, I like to get into contact with you a day or so after your first session to see how you pulled up and how you found the session as well as any feedback you may have.

If you're thinking about jumping into face to face sessions, send me a message and let’s chat!

𝗕𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗜𝗡𝗜𝗡𝗚

Do you ever feel like you're getting consumed by the gym and training? You feel guilty for skipping a session or having a rest day?
As much as this is a good mind set to have towards the gym and training I also think it's important to have balance when it comes to training.

Coming from someone thats job is the gym as well as my own personal training on-top I can say that I've had periods where it feels like every little thing I did involved the gym and let me tell you, it's not healthy, we need balance!

Here's a few things I've changed over the years to allow me to have more of a gym/life balance.

▶︎ Structured training: Instead of working out everyday doing random workouts, I now have 4 sessions a week to complete and I can alter the days I do them on allowing for flexibility.

▶︎ Timing my training sessions: Timing those rests in-between sets are crucial if you're someone like me and gets carried away during your rest time and then ends up being at the gym for an hour longer than needed.

▶︎ Skipping a session when needed: Now I don’t like to miss a session but sometimes last minute social events happen and if it means I have to miss a session to catch up with friends I'm A-okay with that. If I’m not in prep for a comp and don’t have to be so strict with training, I'll allow myself to skip a session and have that balance.

How do you balance your training?

What does it really mean? It means focusing all you energy and sense in the task thats at hand.
Intent is defined as your intention or purpose. When you train, what's the purpose of that training session? what are you thinking when you are training? Is your intent to get the session over and done with so you can go home, or it is to push and strive to become stronger and fitter and the best version of yourself?

Not too sure if you're training with intent? Ask yourself these questions 👇

► Do you challenge yourself by increasing the weights?
► Are you mindful of your rest time between sets?
► Are you focusing on each rep with good form and technique?
► Do you get outside your comfort zone to be better and stronger than your last training session?

Intent can make a huge difference in how an individual approaches and executes they’re training.

�We've all heard the saying "the only bad workout is the one you didn’t do" but I don’t entirely agree with this. �Sometimes you need to listen to your body and have a rest so that you can come back more motivated and determined the next day.

We glorify training when you’re sick, training on zero amounts of sleep, or training even though your muscles are screaming in pain like we deserve a medal for sticking to the program but in reality are bodies are telling us to stop and rest but we ignore it because we feel like its the right thing to do (and also we need to tell the gram that we smashed a super hard session on zero amounts of sleep 🙄🤦🏻‍♀️ )

It’s time to stop ignoring all the red flags that our bodies are giving us and REST!!

You cant keep pouring from an empty cup, have a rest when its needed!

𝗬𝗘𝗔𝗛 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗕𝗢𝗬𝗦! 🤘

One thing that I have noticed over the last few years is female coaches & personal trainers only coaching females.
It's plastered all over social media that they wont take on any males as clients ... and honestly that baffles me!

I understand each coach needs to find their niche clientele when it comes to coaching but you've immediately eliminating 50% of potential new clients! Yeah sure maybe that’s part of their marketing strategy, but personally I don't vibe it 🤷🏻‍♀️ I ain’t a "female only" coach, I will happily coach males that are looking to improve their strength and get better guidance and understanding in the gym.

So this ones for my brothers from other mothers!
�I know from years of coaching males that most of you have little knowledge in the gym & not much understanding on what you need to do to gain strength, and thats okay! For some reason society made it out that if you're a male you should know exactly what to do when it comes to the gym but in reality its the complete opposite!
I can help you have structure for your training and help you start getting those gains! 💪

Face to face sessions and online coaching services are available! 🔥

If you're interested and keen to learn more information. Send me a message and we can discuss further! Or you have the option to book in a free 30min consult call through my link in my bio! 🤙
