Keep it simple stupid!

Home workouts do not need to be complicated nor does everyone have access to loads of equipment or a personal trainer when working out outside of a gym.

A set of dumbbells is a simple bit of equipment that doesn’t cost the earth. Just make sure you don’t go to heavy and end up hurting yourself by having poor form.

Small enough to store indoors and durable for workouts outside a great starting point for any home gym.

Mine currently consists of:

Eighth Day home fitness system
Dumbbells
EZ bar
Straight barbell
Static bike

“Good things come to those who wait”

A fundamentally flawed saying due to the pressures of modern society and the social media ideas of instant gratification!

I got stuck in a rut this weekend after clearing out our storage and expecting to see a difference from it immediately!

Clearly this is not going to make a change right now but will do in the months to come.

Forget about seeing a return immediately!

Put in the work over and over again and the waiting will be the time it takes you to get to your goal.

Don’t get me wrong the odd person will hit it lucky and have over night success.

For the most of us it will be a long hard road!

But

On that road we will learn so much!

Don’t give up, keep going, believe in yourself!

You will get there!

Want MORE in life?

Want MORE from your job?

Just generally want MORE from every aspect of your being?

Perhaps you could make use of the -r principle!

4 principles to use to achieve the results you want.

R - RESULT

“Hard work pays off”

Or so they say, but the work is just one part of it. To get the result as the -r(more)principle suggests. You must have:
1. The right mindset.
2. Be motivated and have the right reason for doing it(your why)
3. Actually take action, so many people dream!
4. Put in the work

Have the correct foundations and the result(s) will come, it might not be over night but you will get there!

WORK

So yesterday was a busy day but we still managed to fit it all in.

Like most over the past year I’ve been in the lucky situation where I can work from home. Now all the craziness is calming down I need to be in the office once a week.

This means driving to Oxford(2.5hrs away on a good day) do a days work and drive home again.

All the while making sure I get my non negotiables In.

1. Time with the kids and wife
2. Workout
3. Walk the dog
4. Drink my water
5. Try and eat as healthy as possible( harder than it seems when kfc etc are shouting at you from the side of the road)

Simple but effective way of fitting everything in and eating healthy on a day like yesterday. Be super intentional with your time no procrastinating! Prepare all the food you might need the night before and chuck it in a cool box.

Sounds simple but the amount of us who would say “ it’ll be alright I’ll just grab something on the road” one kfc later and the whole day goes to pot.

So I’m going to toot my own horn and take a massive win from yesterday. I did all of that and stuck to it and fitted everything in! It doesn’t always go to plan but I had prepared and I was determined!

Anything in life takes work!

The kids, relationships or your job. All of these require work for them to flourish.

This project will take work, for how long who knows in order for it to flourish and I fully understand that!

Kids growing up takes time and work in order to bring up respectable members of society!

Nothing worth having comes easy!

Aligning every aspect of the mmaw-r principle will move the needle in the right direction over time!

Don’t be fooled there is no balance and there will be sacrifice required but the end R will be worth it if that is what you want!

START

The biggest win for anyone in anything is to just start!

It’s the reason I have STARTED eighth day.

I’m under no illusions that it’s not going to be an over night success it’s going to take time and work!

To get to the vision that’s in my head I just needed to start otherwise none of it will be possible.

Every achievement gained or goal set had to have a motivating factor in order to ride the roller coaster of ups and downs in order to get the R.

What is your “WHY”?

Mine is my family, I intend on being healthy and wealthy in order to provide an exceptional life for my family!

Everything I do that challenges me, my family are in my mind motivating me!

How do you get through your challenges? What motivates you?

The mind is the most powerful muscle in the body!

Your body will go wherever you mind tells it!

To get the best of yourself in any given situation your head must be in the game!

Relationships, Parenting, Work, Health and Fitness.

If your head isn’t in it then you don’t have the right mindset so you won’t get the results you want!

Get your head right, get focused the rest will follow!

A little something that came into my head the past few days that I feel can relate to any aspect of life, parenting, relationships, health and fitness!

you need to do\have to get the R!

Mindset - get your head in the game
Motivation - you’ve got to want it
Action - be willing to start
Work - put in the time

Get all of these done and then maybe you will get the R

RESULT

It could be 1 week, it could be 10 years!

Want more = The MMAW-R principle

Until a week ago I would of said a company that provides a fitness solution to busy people, parents, students and professionals.

But it came to me the other day that this is more than a fitness solution, it’s a lifestyle!

I have a wife, I have kids nearly 4 and 6 months. We have a dog and bills to pay, I have a job and a side project I want to get going(this). Juggling all of this on top of doing you is fu***ng hard! In a world which will leave you behind in the blink of an eye!

Get to the point I hear you say….

Eighth Day is a brand but it’s also a lifestyle choice.
It’s about being intentional with your time and maximising it.
It’s about being smart and using your resources effectively to achieve goals.
It’s about being present in the moment and giving the subject your undivided attention( no fiddling with your phone while having a conversation or playing with the kids).

Let’s be honest nobody wants to hustle or grind 24/7 and in my opinion you can’t if you value your family or other commitments which I most definitely do above all else!

Yes Eighth Day still has a large emphasis around health and fitness but we will also offer tips and advice on just doing life.

Don’t get me wrong I’m in no way a guru or perfect but I try my best and I’ve made my choice and gained an EIGHTH DAY how about U!
