Afraid to do resistance training for fear of injuring yourself through bad form?

This is commonplace for a large majority of gym-goers which is why they stick to the cardio section and never venture into the wonderful world of resistance training💁

Let me tell you now, it's time to give your body more credit. It's way more resilient than you think and injuries are way more complex than you think!

Your risk of injury will be mostly dictated by previous injury history, high forces, high speeds, lack of recovery, incorrect load management etc.

If you were to start light & slow with a few simple exercises, you'd give yourself the time to learn and progressively overload the tissue to a point that it's conditioned enough to generate higher forces and velocities without a high risk of damage🔥

In the long term, avoiding resistance training will likely just increase your injury risk.

Get lifting💪

It's hard not to see others thriving in their health & fitness journey while you're battling along in the trenches but it's important to evaluate yourself on your own merit rather than comparing to others.

I'm a big advocate for playing the long game and treating each client on their individual merits.

Everyone has different goals. Different time-scales. Different schedules. Different mindsets.

If you're making progress, you're doing something right. Celebrate the little wins.

If you're feeling stuck and struggling to gain momentum in your training, drop me a message to find out how my program can help you reach new heights💪💪

This was me at 25💪 when my self esteem was determined by how many abs I had!

Do I look like that now?
In the words of Jordan Belfort ...
Absolutely f #*?! not💁

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not in bad shape but I'm nowhere near that level of conditioning. But I also don't have the desire to train 2hours a day either!

I'm 32 now with my own business, more responsibilities, a dog, and a partner I've just bought a house with. If I chased what I used to look like, something's going to have to give.

So many people approach me wanting to return to what they used to look like, often 20 years ago🤯 you're not that person anymore!

Now I'm not saying people shouldn't be motivated. I'm saying be careful of having the wrong motivation. If you keep chasing who you were, you'll never get to see who you can become😎

Become a successful entrepreneur. Become a healthy, happy parent.

Look back at your 20s and thank that person for their role they played in shaping who you are today.

Keep growing.

Be the healthiest version of yourself in your nonstop busy life and ever aging body.

Also the sun is out and it's making me crave a braai/barbeque. But that's got nothing to do with this post I'm just saying🤙

Think of your training and nutrition as a dimmer switch rather than an on & off switch.

It is constantly on and sometimes when you've got the energy you can turn it right up, sometimes you have to dim it down to save a bit💁

Too many people turn the switch off and leave the room. That room gets cold and dark and damp!

Keep the lights on because your body isn't going to wait for you to pick up where it left off.

Start when you've got time. Start when you don't. Just start. And never stop again💪

Resistance training is perhaps the fitness industry's single biggest non-negotiable!

Want to increase metabolism? Lift weights.
Want to improve bone density? Lift weights.
Want to improve movement quality? Lift weights.
Want to reduce pain & injuries? Lift weights.

Some people think that they're too unfit to do resistance training💁

Do you sit down and stand up? You can squat.
Can you put things up on the shelf? You can shoulder press.
Can you open the door? You can row.

Invest in a coach to teach you the fundamentals and within a few sessions you'll realise you're capable of way more than you thought!

It's never too late to start🏋️🏋️‍♀️

Heavy compound exercises performed with correct bracing & technique will do more to develop your core than that 10min segment at the end of your session where you look to "get your abs burning" 💁

Supplement that with accessory work such as deadbugs, plank variations and carries and you've struck gold.

Remember, a six pack ≠ a strong core!

A common goal for most new (predominantly female) clients💁

It's important to remember that muscle can only grow or get smaller. A more "toned" or "firmer" feeling is down to a reduction in fat mass.

So if you want to be more toned. Lift weights🏋️‍♀️ and control your calorie intake enough to lose body fat while building or maintaining muscle mass!

If you're lifting weights and getting bulky, you're probably adding fat mass as well😊
