This is something I have conversations with clients about a lot.

What’s the best exercise for X?

What’s the best number of days to train?

What’s the best way to lose weight?

What’s the best rep range?

I get it. You want results quickly but the frustrating answer is…it depends.

There are so many variables to consider when I create programmes for clients: the amount of time they have, how frequently they can train, their experience in the gym, confidence performing exercises, confidence working at different intensities, what they enjoy, their goals and so many more.

But I work in fitness because I genuinely love it. Not everyone does and they shouldn’t have to.

Someone could want to get stronger but not spend 5 days a week in the gym.

Someone may want to lose/gain weight without their whole life revolving around food.

Someone may prefer an exercise that is slightly less “optimal” for their goal but they feel confident and actually enjoy doing it.

It doesn’t make the approach wrong.

Part of being a good coach is understanding the person in front of you, rather than trying to force them into what looks good on paper or what you as a coach, want for them.

I’ve learned that a programme that is slightly less optimal but gets a client moving their body more often and benefits their overall wellbeing is a lot better than the most optimal programme that is carried out once or twice over a few weeks.

The best programme isn’t the one that is most optimal on paper.

It’s the one that’s most appropriate for the person doing it.

So what’s the best way to achieve your goal?

The way that’s most appropriate for you.

Some weeks, getting two sessions done is consistency.

This week I’ve had conversations with clients about getting back to regular meals, trying to improve sleep, walking more, managing stressful periods and getting to the gym when motivation has disappeared.

None of that sounds particularly impressive.

There aren’t any dramatic transformations or perfect weeks to post about.

But this is what coaching actually looks like a lot of the time.

Sometimes a plan can go brilliantly.

Other times life gets busy, sleep isn’t great, stress is high or motivation disappears. But, we work with it!

My job as a coach isn’t to make someone feel guilty about what they didn’t manage to do.

It is to look at the week they had and ask:

What feels realistic that we can do next?

• maybe that’s getting back to 3 gym sessions
• maybe it’s prioritising protein at meals
• maybe it’s going to bed at your normal time
• maybe it’s simply getting outside for a walk

Those things may not make for the most impressive instagram post.

But learning to keep moving forward when life isn’t perfectly setup for you?

That’s where the real progress happens

Celebrate 5 years of Empower Fitness with a 5K!

This year marks 5 years since I started Empower Fitness and I wanted to do include something I love to celebrate.

Running has been such a big part of my life, especially over the 5 years of running (excuse the pun) this business.

So, on Saturday 29th August I’m bringing the two together for an organised 5k around Warminster.

This will be a one off opportunity to get people together, go for a run and grab a coffee and cake at Cafe Anouk.

🏃‍♂️ 5k social run
⏱️ Avg 5:45-6:15 min/km
📍 Meet outside Snap Fitness Warminster at 08:30
☕️ First coffee on me for anyone running
🎟️ Completely free - but, limited to 10 spaces!

You don’t need to be a client or member of Snap Fitness to join. If you fancy a Saturday morning run (sorry Parkrun!) and a coffee with some new people, you’re more than welcome.

Spaces are limited to 10, so please book via the link in my bio to secure yours! 💙🎈

I bought a running vest I really liked

When I tried it on, my first thought was:

“My back isn’t lean enough or built enough for something this open.”

It’s interesting because nothing had changed.

I liked the vest before I put it on,
It fit,
It was comfortable.

The thing that did change was the way I started judging my body when I saw myself wearing it.

But I wore it anyway.

I don’t feel that body confidence is looking in the mirror and loving everything you see.

Sometimes the thoughts still appear.

I can feel self conscious and still wear the vest

And I can want to improve my physique without believing I need to hide in the meantime.

Those two things can coexist.

On Friday, I asked:

“How many gym sessions a week do you feel you need to make progress?”

Nobody chose 2 sessions,
38% said 3,
50% said 4,
12% said 5.

I found that quite interesting.

Because I think there can be a big difference between the amount of training we feel we need to do and the amount we actually need to make progress.

If someone feels they need to train 4-5 times per week, but realistically only has time for 2…

2 can start to feel pointless.

“What’s the point if I can’t do it properly?”

So they do nothing.

But two well planned sessions every week can absolutely be productive.

And depending on your goals, experience and circumstances, it might be exactly where I’d start.

More isn’t automatically better.

And doing less doesn’t mean you’re not taking your goals seriously.

Sometimes the most effective plan isn’t the one that asks the most from you.

It’s the one you can actually keep doing.

“I’m busy” and “I don’t have enough time” are things I hear quite often.

Life can be genuinely busy.

Work is busy,
You commute,
You have kids,
You work long hours,
You have plans at the weekend.

I feel the solution isn’t pretending those things don’t exist and giving someone a plan that requires them to train for 90 minutes 5 x per week, meal prep every Sunday and achieve 10,000 steps per day.

Because what happens when they don’t do that…they feel like they’ve failed.

Instead, I’d ask:

What feels realistic for you to achieve over the next 7 days?

Maybe it’s 2-3 gym session instead of 4-5,
Maybe they’re 40-45 minutes instead of 55-60,
Maybe some weeks look different to others,
Maybe we find opportunities for movement that already fit into your day.

Being busy doesn’t mean you can’t work toward health and fitness goals.

But it just means that your health and fitness routine needs to work around your busy life not against it.

Fitness should improve your life, not consume it.

5 years ago, I thought coaching was about giving people the perfect programme.

I don’t believe that anymore.

The biggest lesson I’ve learnt is:

People rarely struggle because they don’t know enough.

They struggle because life gets in the way:

Work,
Holidays,
Birthdays,
Stress,
Kids,
Travel.

Coaching isn’t about making life “perfect”.

Coaching isn’t about never having a bad day.

It’s about helping people make the next best decision when life doesn’t go to plan.

That’s what I’ve been building over the last five years.

Thank you to everyone who has trusted me to be part of their journey so far.

Here’s to the next five.

Someone replied to my story saying:

“This is why being lean will never be my goal…I can’t resist food”

I completely understand why people feel that way.

I love food too.

But somewhere along the line we’ve been taught that getting lean means saying no all of the time.

No cake,
No meals out,
No holidays,
No desserts.

I don’t feel that’s a sustainable way to live.

My goal as a coach isn’t to help people become better at resisting food.

It’s to help them build habits where the food they enjoy alongside their goals.

A lean physique doesn’t require a miserable lifestyle.

Because fitness should improve your life, not consume it.
