If you feel like you’re ‘good’ all week but your progress keeps stalling, it might be worth looking at what happens over the weekend.

And usually, the biggest thing that helps is simply being prepared.

You don’t need to avoid meals out, takeaways, drinks or social plans.

But going into the weekend with no plan at all can make it really easy for one meal to turn into two or three days of being completely off track.

A little bit of prep can make a massive difference.

Think about:

What meals have you got planned?

Are you eating out anywhere?

When are you going to train?

Can you get a walk in?

Do you need to get some food in so there are decent options at home?

You don’t need to plan every calorie.

You just need enough structure so you’re not making every decision in the moment.

That’s the difference between enjoying your weekend and feeling like you need to “start again” every Monday.

Fat loss doesn’t need a perfect weekend.

It just needs a bit of planning, some structure, and the ability to get back to normal when things don’t go perfectly.

What have you got planned this weekend?

Most transformation posts finish here. Emma’s doesn’t.

12 weeks. 4.5kg down. 5cm off her waist.

And now we’re doing something a lot of people are scared to do.

We’re going to start bringing her food back up.

Emma came to me wanting to lose body fat, feel better around her stomach, build some definition and get stronger.

At the time, training had been inconsistent and there wasn’t much structure.

Fast forward 12 weeks and the difference is brilliant.

4.5kg down.

5cm off her waist.

Clothes fitting differently.

Back into clothes she thought she was going to give away.

Buying size 6 shorts for the first time in years.

Feeling fitter, stronger and more confident.

Emma even said in her latest check in:

“I’m now looking like I want to!”

That is a pretty good point to stop chasing more and more weight loss.

Fat loss should be a phase, not somewhere you live forever.

So now we gradually bring calories back up, maintain the result, and shift the focus towards strength, performance and building lean muscle.

This is the bit people often miss.

Lose the fat.

Learn how to maintain it.

Bring food back up.

Get stronger.

Build muscle.

Especially as we get into our 30s, 40s and beyond, I don’t want my clients spending their whole lives dieting and constantly trying to make the scales go down.

The goal is to eventually not need to diet.

Emma has done a cracking job over these first 12 weeks.

Now onto phase two 💪🏻

If you’re a busy woman 35+ who wants to lose fat, get stronger and actually keep the results:

Mrs H and the boys were involved in a pretty nasty crash yesterday.

Thankfully, everyone is okay. Just a few minor bumps and bruises, and understandably a bit shaken up. Car is a write off too.

There was absolutely nothing they could have done. Someone pulled out of a junction without looking.

I was only five minutes away and managed to get across pretty quickly, but it’s not a nice feeling when your whole family is in one car and you get that phone call.

There’s a lot of negativity about the UK and about people in general at the moment.

But do you know what?

What I saw yesterday was awesome.

People are not bad.

A massive thank you to Terri from Grounded Coffee Cafe Grounded Coffee in Collingham. She was amazing, stopped straight away, helped and comforted Rachel and the boys, and stayed with them to keep everyone calm.

A big thank you to Vicky Woods, who helped sort things with the eldest and school and kept him calm.

Thank you to the person who stopped and gave them bottles of water and the boys some KitKats & Haribo.

Thank you to the two guys who helped direct traffic.

Thank you to Emma Thornton Captain Thornton's who also stopped to help.

Thank you to West Yorkshire Police, who arrived quickly and got everything sorted.

Thank you to the ambulance crew who checked everyone over at the scene.

Thank you to the AA who came out quickly to sort the car.

And thank you for all the kind and supportive words from people who were driving by.

There are so many negative things posted on social media that it’s easy to start believing everything is bad.

Yesterday was a pretty good reminder that it isn’t.

For every one bad person, there are 999 good ones.

Thank you to every single person who stopped and helped my family yesterday.

It’s genuinely nice to know there are still so many good people out there.

You’ve probably lost the same 5–10kg more than once.

You know how to diet.

You know which foods are ‘good.’

You’ve probably had periods where you’ve trained consistently, tracked everything and got yourself into really good shape.

But then work gets busy.

There’s a holiday.

A few meals out.

Sleep goes downhill.

Training slips.

And a few months later, you’re back trying to start again.

That’s the person I tend to work best with.

Not someone who needs another meal plan.

Not someone who needs another 8-week challenge.

Someone who needs to finally make this work around a normal, busy life.

I’m opening a few more coaching spaces this September for busy professionals over 35.

If that sounds like you, message me SEPTEMBER and we can have a chat.

The scales can be useful.

But they don’t get to decide whether you’ve had a good week or whether you’re making progress.

Your weight can fluctuate for all sorts of reasons, even when you’re doing everything right.

So look at the bigger picture.

Are you getting stronger?
Are your measurements changing?
Are your clothes fitting differently?
Do you have more energy?
Are you fitter?
Are you feeling more confident?

Fat loss is obviously part of the goal.

But don’t become so focused on one number that you completely miss everything else that’s changing.

The scales are one measure of progress. Not the definition of it.

17 years is a long time to do anything.

Especially in an industry where I’ve seen a lot of people come and go.

I started pretty much straight out of university and, for a long time, being a PT was my life.

Early mornings, late finishes, back-to-back sessions and plenty of times where work came before social plans.

Things look very different now that I coach online, but a lot of what has kept me going hasn’t changed.

I still care massively about the people I work with.

I still hate letting people down.

I still want to get better at what I do.

And I still know that nobody is going to build the business for me.

I certainly haven’t got everything right over those 17 years. Far from it.

But I’m proud that I’ve managed to build a career doing something I genuinely care about.

And I think all those years of actually working with people have made me a much better coach today than I was when I started at 21.

So apparently 32 is old for a PT…

38 must make me absolutely ancient 😂

It’s really easy to compare yourself now to who you were 10 or 15 years ago.

Maybe you were lighter, fitter, training more and had more time to focus on yourself.

But your life probably looked completely different too.

Different job. Fewer responsibilities. Less stress. Maybe no kids. More sleep. More time.

So stop expecting yourself to do what you did back then.

You can still lose body fat.
You can still get strong.
You can still feel confident in your clothes.
You can still get into fantastic shape.

You just need an approach that works for your life now.

The goal isn’t to get the old you back.

It’s to build an even better version of you for where you are today.

Trying to increase your protein? 👇

One of the biggest mistakes I see is people simply adding more protein on top of what they already eat.

More eggs. More cheese. More nuts. More protein bars.

Yes, protein goes up, but your overall intake can quickly go up with it.

If fat loss is the goal, look for simple swaps that give you more protein for relatively fewer calories.

Start with your main meals.

Aim for a decent protein source at breakfast, lunch and dinner, then use snacks to fill any gaps.

You don’t need to get it perfect.

A few better choices throughout the day can make a big difference. 👍🏻

Save this one for some easy ideas.

For a lot of people, wanting to lose body fat isn’t really just about the number on the scales.

It’s about wanting to feel like yourself again.

Maybe work got busier. Kids came along. Stress went up. Sleep got worse. Exercise disappeared down the priority list and somewhere along the way, you stopped feeling quite like you.

There’s nothing wrong with wanting to change that.

Yes, we can work on dropping body fat.

But we can also get you stronger, fitter, more confident, improve your energy and help you feel good in your clothes again.

Because sometimes losing the 10kg is only part of the result.

Getting a bit of YOU back is the bigger win.

You don’t have to be at your leanest all year round.

These are both me, just at different stages with different goals.

And right now, I’m actually somewhere in the middle.

Sometimes I’ll intentionally eat more, focus on getting stronger, push my training and enjoy a little more flexibility with food and social occasions.

That generally means carrying a bit more body fat.

Other times I might decide I want to lean up, so I’ll adjust things and spend some time in a calorie deficit.

Neither is the before or the after.

But this post isn’t really about me.

It’s about understanding that your body doesn’t have to look the same all year round.

There might be times when fat loss is a priority.

There might be times when work is crazy, you’re travelling, family life takes over, you’ve got more social occasions or you simply want a bit more flexibility.

And there can be plenty of time where you’re somewhere in the middle. Maintaining, training, eating well and enjoying your life.

I think social media can give us a warped view because we tend to see people when they’re at their leanest, in their best lighting and at their best angle.

That isn’t real life 365 days a year.

You can care about your health, want to feel good in your clothes, train, eat well and still enjoy your life without needing to be at your leanest all the time.

For me, that’s what keeping things in balance looks like.
