This is the perfect course for beginners or those who have being going to the gym but lack confidence in form and aren't sure if they're making the best use of their sessions.

There are only six spaces, so you’ll get plenty of hands on coaching, plus a training programme and support between sessions

STOP EXPECTING TO LOSE WEIGHT LIKE A MAN 😫

Stop comparing your weight loss rate to a man's.

Or even to another woman's.

A common recommendation is to lose 1–2 lb per week.

But let's look at what that actually means.

A 200 lb person losing 2 lb per week is losing 1% of their body weight.

A 120 lb woman losing 2 lb per week is losing almost 1.7% of her body weight.

That's a completely different rate of loss.

This is why smaller women often feel like they're "failing" when they're losing 0.5–1 lb per week.

They're not.

In many cases, that's actually an appropriate rate of progress.

Instead of focusing on a fixed number of pounds, it can be more useful to think in percentages.

Aiming to lose around 0.5–1% of body weight per week is often a more realistic and sustainable target.

The smaller you are, the smaller your weekly losses may look on the scales. As a 1-2lb loss can look very dramatic on a smaller person.

That doesn't mean you're making less progress.

It means you're comparing percentages, not pounds.

Most importantly, give yourself time, patience and kindness. Your life is happening right now, not when you've lost 20lb. Focus on the strength you're building in the gym and the healthy habits you're forming now, which are building foundations for a healthier future. 💜

AI can be very helpful, absolutely. BUT, it can also get you injured 👀.

Apps like Runna are notorious for prescribing far too much volume to beginners (and we're seeing this in the injuries people are getting), and I've experienced downright stupid programming tips from chat GPT.

How often have you caught something out that isn't right and it then agrees with you like "Oh yes, woops! You're totally right." it's happened often to me.

However, if you're new to the gym or any other exercise, you don't have that knowledge base to be able to properly assess the information you've been given.

Remember, it's pulling info from the cess pits of reddit, to hopefully more often, pub med articles.

Aside from that, chat GPT cannot presribe exercise to you as an individual, as well as an actual professional can. It goes by what information you give it, and if you don't even know what your exact weaknesses/strengths/imbalances are etc, it won't either.

Coaches use their knowledge of working with hundreds of people over years, to curate programmes and advice that is relevent to you.

Anybody can get a programme for free online, and they always have been able to as long as Google search has been around.

Beginners especially don't necessarily NEED a personalised plan, they will progress on a basic plan if they execute it properly, absolutely.

But, wouldn't you like to do something more tailored to you from the start? Wouldn't you like proper support and guidance from a human being?

Anyway, AI is great, but PLEASE double check things, don't follow AI (or personal trainers!) blindly!

This is what happens when coaching goes beyond just “workouts and macros.”

Starting early 2018, I worked with Viki for almost 6 years, to:

▪️Build a healthy relationship with food and training

▪️Understand why she’s doing what she’s doing in the gym

▪️ Develop confidence, strength, and trust in her own ability

▪️Fall in love with lifting and stay consistent long-term

Her transformation didn’t come from extremes or quick fixes. It came from education, support, structure, and patience.

As a coach, my goal isn’t just physical change, it’s helping clients feel confident, capable, and in control of their training for life.

If you want coaching that focuses on longevity, understanding, and sustainable results, this is what that can look like.

Thank you, for trusting me, for all the laughs along the way and your support ❤️.

I'm concerned for women's health. Do you think about your vitamin and mineral intake?

It's pretty scary seeing the resurgence of "super skinny" being back in fashion and the high accessibility to GLP-1s, making inadequate nutrition a real problem.

I'm afraid for women who are already or will soon experience osteoporosis and other serious health conditions.

While I'm absolutely not against the medication, in fact, I think it's life changing a miraculous for many.

This isn't a problem exclusive to GLP-1 users either.

I'm concerned that people are focusing too much on calorie intake and not enough on nutrients.

I can scroll through social media and see numerous videos from women who've lost a lot of weight very quickly and are beginning to lose hair, see menstrual changes etc. At worst, I've seen someone hospitalised from nerve damage due to folate and b12 deficiencies.

These are all avoidable. So, please, if you're on very low calories, or even a small deficit, have an honest look at the quality of your diet, and consider supplementing and testing your essential nutrients.

It might be common, but it's not normal or healthy to experience these deficiencies and the symptoms.

Look after yourself and slow down if necessary, it's not worth feeling rubbish ❤️

Beccy has now been training with me for over a year and has completely changed her life for the better. 🫶
Coaching women through peri-menopause is some of the most meaningful work I do. 💛
Beccy has gained strength, confidence, and control back over her body, and her review genuinely made my day.
