What does fitness and exercise mean to you?

What drives you to do exercise and improve your fitness?

What are your goals?

I often hear people refer to "weight" and "fat" when talking about fitness goals.

Fitness can be broken down and analysed by measuring your main aspects of fitness.

By challenging these aspects of fitness and forcing the body to adapt and overcome resistance, or overloading the body to adapt will in turn, change body composition and burn through fat stores as well as potentially building muscle(depending on the method of exercise)

The fitter you get the healthier you are.

Your health is the most important aspect of your life.

Chose to exercise to better your health and improve your life.

Do not feel you HAVE to exercise becuase you want to look a certain way to fit a false image or narrative perpetuated throughout media, in particular social media.

There is a toxicity to the fitness image via social media. False images, altered pictures, unsuitable body images amd unnatural muscle mass to name a few.

In short if you want to get fitter, measure your fitness levels against the aspects of fitness not how you look or soley off your weight. Weight only reflects how heavy you are not how much body fat you have.

Make small changes to your routine. Make small changes to your nutrition. These changes become habitual. Then they build up and become big changes. It doesn't happen super fast or overnight. No matter what some potsts and products may claim.

Something as small as adding a walk a day into your routine can make big changes, and the endorphin release will hit high from the start.

So don't beat yourself up if you're feeling down, dont confuse confidence with half naked pictures or steroid pumped physiques.

Set yourself small challenges. Smash through them. Make new ones and be proud of yourself for doing so! 👏💪👍

We come in all shapes and sizes embrace it and look to improve your health in a healthy way. Physically and mentally

Another session with Lynda from last week.

A high volume upper session with some cardio work and HIIT rounds to finish.

Here are some clips of the session.

If you are feeling stuck or struggling to hit certain muscle groups or target specific areas, a little variation to a standard exercise can help.

For example, to target the pec minor (top of the chest) without incline push ups or press ups we performed an underhand frontal raise to recreate an incline cable fly and threw in some pauses and single arm reps to help maintain a decent volume of lift as we have a limited variation in the weights available.

Exercise can play a key role in maintaining a healthy brain, as well as help recovery within it.

Look after your body look after your brain 💪

Alvaro putting some work to build up the fitness after a while away from it.

Full body workout performed as intervals with a high intensity for a high number of rounds to ensure a high level of volume was maintained.

We also performed a shuttle sprint set with burpees, squats and push ups for declining sets. The duration of which was dictated by the speed of Alvaro and how long it took for him to complete it.

A target was set by me for him to try beat, this is again another way to make the cardio elements more challenging and engaging.

The same method was applied to the interval rounds with specific targets set for each exercise including from target amount of reps for each set in relation to previous rounds and rep count/time.

Using this method and introducing a competitive edge to the session can make it more enjoyable and can increase the output for the participants
💪👍

Some sport specific work with Will.

This session had a mix of resistance HIIT, some explose cardio bodyweight moves and some ball work between spritns and footwork drills.

Incorporating ball work here and sport specific movements is a great way to get some cardio work in and keep it engaging.

Keeping the session sport specific is a great method to set targets and goals for the individual session as well as long term fitness goals.

We also worked on some game specific drills and exercises to help better his performances in games.
