Taking a GLP-1 for weight loss? Don’t forget about your muscle...

When you’re losing weight, the number on the scales doesn’t tell the whole story.

Some of the weight you lose may be lean mass (muscle, bone density and other essential tissues) which is why protecting your muscle and strength should be part of the conversation.

Strength training gives your body an important reason to hold onto muscle while you lose weight.

Combined with good nutrition and adequate protein, it can help you focus on what really matters:

-Losing excess body fat
-Maintaining muscle and strength
-Staying physically capable
-Supporting your long-term health

The goal isn’t just to become lighter. It’s to look more toned, become stronger, move better and feel more confident in your body.

If you’re taking a GLP-1, now could be the perfect time to start strength training and invest in the body you want to take forward with you.

3 Strength Training Exercises Every Cyclist Should Be Doing...

If you want to ride stronger, faster, and with fewer injuries, don’t just spend more time on the bike - you need to hit the gym too. These three strength exercises will help you build more power, improve stability, and keep you riding for longer.

1️⃣ Bulgarian Split Squat
A brilliant exercise for building unilateral leg strength, targeting the quads, glutes, and hamstrings. These muscles are essential for producing power with every pedal stroke. It also helps address muscular imbalances, and core stability, improving both performance and efficiency on the bike.

2️⃣ Single-Leg RDL
Another key unilateral movement that strengthens the posterior chain, particularly the glutes and hamstrings, which translates to greater power potential and reduced risk of injury. The hip hinge pattern also mirrors your riding position, helping reduce lower back fatigue on longer rides.

3️⃣ Pallof Press
An excellent anti-rotation core exercise that builds stability through the trunk. A stronger core improves power transfer when pedalling, while helping you maintain better posture and control, especially on long rides or tough climbs.

Strength training isn’t just for getting stronger in the gym: it’s about becoming a more efficient and resilient cyclist. Add these exercises to your weekly routine and you’ll notice the difference both on and off the bike!

The team of expert Personal Trainers at TFR is growing and we’re excited to welcome Izzy into the mix...

She’s here to tell us a little more about her journey to us...

“My back ground in health and fitness started when I was 19 - I had always danced and was very active in my younger years but was quite underweight, so I got a Personal Trainer and really took a liking to fitness. I was then offered an apprenticeship where I started my training at a fitness suite in Cornwall to become a PT myself. The space focused on sport rehabilitation and strength training, as well as working with clients who were cancer survivors. This was a community focused space that taught me so much about clients of all different age groups and backgrounds. These experiences have shaped me and drastically improved not only my physical fitness but my mental health - now I make it my goal to help others change their lives and fall in love with strength training.”

Tell us about how you like to train...
“My first love in terms of fitness will ALWAYS be lifting weights. However more recently I have started to take a hybrid approach that includes outdoor running, dancing and resistance training! I’m developing my knowledge with plyometrics to accompany my passion for dance. I would rather develop all areas of fitness than be a master of one alone.”

Share an interesting fact about yourself...
“Travel is another passion of mine and after leaving school I travelled Australia, Fiji and New Zealand, and have loved visiting other countries since like India, Thailand and all over Europe.”

You can find Izzy on the gym floor taking 1-1 and Shared PT sessions, so give her a big TFR welcome next time you’re in!

The Fitting Rooms is excited to welcome Hayley to our team of expert Personal Trainers!

Let’s get to know a little about her and her fitness journey...

Whats your background in health and fitness?

“I was a dancer for 15 years, competing and performing primarily in Hip Hop and Street dance, but I started in Ballroom and Latin American. Amongst other things, dance taught me the importance of mind-body connection which is something I bring into my work with clients. From dance I moved into yoga, before finding a love for weight training which I used to work on my own body re-composition, whilst improving my strength and expanding my skillset. I found the best parts of my week were being in the gym, so it only made sense to me to start a new career where I could talk about fitness all day long; and since then, I’ve had the pleasure of training clients one-to-one and in group exercise classes. Alongside the physical, I am also a qualified meditation teacher.”

How do you like to train yourself?

“For the past few years, I’ve primarily focussed on weight training, with some cardio thrown in. But, as my personal journey has progressed, I have developed a growing interest in functional fitness, calisthenics and boxing/Muay Thai. I believe fitness should most of all be fun, so I’ve recently switched up my own training to add in calisthenics and combat training. I’m excited to see how these new styles of training affect my strength, mobility and flexibility, how my body will change aesthetically and I’m enjoying being at the beginning again and learning all anew!”

What’s an interesting fact about yourself?

“I am also an actor and am in the Star Wars Universe! I have also dabbled in combat for stage and screen, as well as Kengido, a samurai sword-fighting style of combat.”

Hayley can be found on the gym floor at TFR, taking 1-1 and Shared PT sessions, so give a her a warm welcome next time you’re in!

Fix Diastasis Recti with these foundational core exercises...

Diastasis recti is the partial or complete separation of the re**us abdominis muscles, the “six-pack” muscles, that run vertically down the front of your abdomen.

It can affect up to 60% of post-part women, amongst other people, The good news is that with the right approach, most people can significantly improve it through targeted movement, breathing, and strength work.

Here are the foundational exercises we use at The Fitting Rooms to rebuild core tension from the inside out:

360° Breathing: The foundation of everything, promoting core stability and balanced pressure throughout the trunk. Inhale through your nose and feel your ribs expand in all directions. On the exhale, allow your torso to gently recoil. Practise lying down, then sitting, then standing.

Heel Slides: Help to restore function between the abdomen and pelvic floor. Lie on your back, exhale and slowly slide one heel along the floor to extend the leg. Inhale as you return the leg.

Glute Bridges: Build strength through your core, glutes, and hamstrings, and reduce anterior pelvic tilt, improving overall stability and posture. Exhale as you lift your hips to stabilise your core.

Dead Bug: Lie on your back with arms and legs to ceiling and engage your core. Keeping your spine neutral and in contact with the floor throughout, exhale, then slowly lower one heel to the floor and extending the opposite arm overhead. Inhale, return and repeat. Builds stability through the entirety of the core.

Bird Dog: Builds deep stability without compressing the midline. Setup on your hands and knees with your spine neutral, exhale and extend the opposite arm and leg while keeping the hips level and the pelvis completely still. Hold briefly then return and switch sides.

Once you have mastered control and coordination through these exercises, you can progressively introduce more demand through weighted training.

Healing diastasis recti is not about complete abdication from exercise, it’s about rebuilding your core from the inside out.

In this month’s client spotlight, we have the lovely Lisa…

When Lisa first joined The Fitting Rooms, like many people walking into a new gym for the first time, she wasn’t quite sure what to expect, but she knew she wanted to build confidence, learn proper technique, and improve her overall health and fitness.

From day one, Lisa embraced the process. She focused on learning the fundamentals, developing good movement patterns, and building the consistency needed to make training a lasting habit rather than a short-term fix.

As her confidence grew, so did her strength, knowledge, and enjoyment of training. Over time, Lisa progressed through our tiered programmes and now trains on our Advanced Body Composition Programme, where she continues to push herself and achieve new milestones.

One of the things Lisa values most about training at The Fitting Rooms is the combination of expert coaching and the friendly atmosphere of our Shared PT Programme. Always having PTs on hand to guide her, alongside a supportive group of like-minded members, has helped her stay motivated and enjoy the journey every step of the way.

Looking back at where she started, the progress Lisa has made is a fantastic reminder of what can be achieved through consistency, patience, and trusting the process. She arrived as a beginner and has developed into a confident, capable gym-goer who continues to go from strength to strength.

We’re incredibly proud of everything Lisa has achieved so far and can’t wait to see what comes next.

Want to live longer? Studies show that strength training is the answer.

In fact, a recent study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine found that just 90 minutes to 2 hours of strength training per week is associated with a “13% lower risk of premature death”.

But longevity isn’t just about adding years to your life. It’s about adding life to your years.

As we live longer, it’s increasingly important to invest in the strength, mobility and resilience that allow us to stay active, independent and capable for as long as possible.

The reason strength training matters so much is that our bodies naturally change as we age.

• Muscle mass and bone density gradually decline, increasing the risk of falls, fractures and longer recovery times.

• Strength training helps maintain muscle, improve bone health, support joint function, and enhance balance and stability.

• Regular exercise can improve blood pressure, insulin sensitivity and cardiovascular health, helping to reduce the risk of conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

Ultimately, the goal isn’t simply to live longer.

The real goal is maintaining quality of life. Being able to carry your shopping, climb the stairs, play with your children and grandchildren, travel, and remain independent for as long as possible.

The best time to start building that strength is now.
