Neil Dayus PT for nearly 20-years, Dad for 5. Guess which 5-years taught me the most about balancing a busy life with health and fitness goals!

A no-nonsense approach to diet, exercise, and well-being that places the emphasis firmly on getting the best return for your efforts. No fads, no empty promises, just good advice.

Thanks to your loyalty card, your supermarket likely knows more about your health than your GP. They'll know how much alcohol you consume, whether you have a sweet tooth, and much more besides, thanks to your buying habits being logged.

They'd be able to have a fair guess at what you're likely to buy in your next shop, since most of us have six to ten recipes that we cycle through. This week, mess with their data and give the algorithm the hiccups by adding one new recipe to your repertoire.

Pick something you love from a meal out, a holiday, or a childhood favourite. Cooking is a superpower, but even super powers can become stale and fall by the wayside in favour of convenience. Find a recipe you're excited to try, put on your favourite cooking tunes, and enjoy making a positive change.

Romanian Dead Lifts (RDLs), are great for building strong hips and lower back. So, is the Good Morning exercise. Why would you choose one over the other?

In the rush to get to the fancy stuff and look like a clever clogs, it's easy to overlook how important getting the fundamentals right is. Like "where do I put my hands for press-ups". Save yourself a lot of elbow and shoulder niggles, by getting this fundamental right.

Exercise selection isn't random; when would you choose a split squat over a lunge?

Think of a week, where everything went quite well and you were happy with what you'd achieved. You might have been more active and chalked up more steps than usual, managed to squeeze in your workout time, or had a good week of eating healthy meals. What better example could you want for a template for success than you, yourself having a good week?

Consider why it was a good week, did you do anything differently? Did you plan your meals in advance, schedule workout time, or something else that you had control over?

Using your own examples makes it much easier to build a template for future success, because they often have the solutions to your own biggest roadblocks built in. There's no better example than the best version of yourself.

First the plank and now this; are there any exercises that people actually like? Wait, squats! Oh no, never mind...
While it might not be a favourite, at least we can make it less likely to injure your shoulder. So, that's something, I suppose.

Scorching hot half term Tuesday, so we were off out early today. A short, shady walk through the trees at Queen Elizabeth Country Park, a spot of adventure park zipline, finished off with ice creams, before heading home for lunch.

Getting the boys moving, having mini adventures, and enjoying being outdoors.

*not pictured, Dad laden down like a pack mule.

It's bank holiday Monday, it's a scorcher. So, of course you're all thinking, "I wish there was a more interesting plank exercise I could try". Just put down your Aperol Spritz first. ☀️

A "functional hook", is a real-life use for your strength training movements. A task closely mimicked by an exercise, such as...
