This gal, affectionately known as "Little Lucy", has been training with me twice a week for over 18months and last week, after this photo, we put more weight on and she smashed out 200kg for 3 reps on the leg press...at 15yrs old!!

She continues to amaze me -
•Constantly having to relearn how to move her body as she grows what feels like a foot a week

•Running her first 10km earlier this year

•Although being tired is her trademark 😉 she still shows up and puts in 100% of what she has to give

•And from starting out shy and timid to smashing out 200kg on the leg press.

We dance, we sing, we laugh and we train while most of all having heaps of fun!!

I am so proud of you and can't wait to see how much we can do next year!!

Bring on those pull ups!!! 👊

I love this picture and I think it sums me up as a trainer pretty well...

I am here for the client and what that individual client needs.

I will be the first to tell you I am not the most technichal coach.
I am not the most skilled trainer.
I do not know the names of all the muscles and tendons and ligaments and joints.
I do not live for the gym.

BUT

I do know people and I do know bodies.
I do know how to make people feel comfortable in the gym.
I do know how to help people re/gain confidence in themselves and their physical abilities.
I do know how to help people get stronger.
I do know how to help people feel better in their own skin.

For me the gym is a tool to be used to help people create and build the mental and physical strength to live their lives out doing the things they love.
To help prevent injury.
To help maintain a strong musculoskeletal system as we age.
To help you feel powerful in your own body.

So I may not be the most technical or most skilled trainer
BUT I am damn good PERSONAL trainer and most importantly, I absolutely love what I do!!

Another year done at and as always, a fab event.

Although I didn't get to join in this year I know there were loads of laughs and fun had around the course.

I missed seeing the troupes cross the line as I was out with my two youngest lads doing the "mini's" course but we made sure to leave them a stocked chilly bin at the finish line 😉

If you haven't done The Alpha Challenge grab some mates and give it a go next year.

You won't regret it!!

* 1 year ago today *

1 year ago today, after months and months of planning, training, covid, overseas trip, replanning and more training I had the honour of supporting the incredible Elise in her feat of not only summiting three local peaks in one day BUT wearing full structural firefighting kit, including breathing aparatus to raise funds for an organisation close to her heart, .

13.5hrs.
35+ km's.
3 peaks.

The weather gods were on our side that day and it couldn't have all come together any better.

Proud of you. Proud of us.

This little lady and I have been running evey Monday for the last couple of months. We do the same 4km loop each time and and today she smashed her previous PB by almost 2 whole minutes!!

We vary our training with easy, tempo and interval runs while sticking to a route she knows and is comfortable with 👌

Super proud of you Miss 🤍

Food prep tips -

Food/meal prepping is a fantastic tool for many reasons, no matter what your goals...

It can be a bit daunting and overwhelming though when you are starting out.

My suggestion - START SMALL.
It doesn't have to be all or nothing.

The easiest meal to prep is breakfast.

My go to is Overnight Oats
-oats
-protein powder (this is what keeps you feeling fuller for longer)
-milk of choice
-fruit - banana, kiwi, berries
-nuts - almonds, walnuts, brazil nuts

Another easy place to start is vege/salad for lunch and dinners

I like to always have a container of prepared vege or salad in the fridge, ready to go, to bulk my meals with. Load your plate with it, add your protein and some carbs like rice or pasta if you want and there is your meal.

My go to 'winter' raw salad is
-broccoli
-cabbage
-apple
-celery
-carrot
-red onion
-lemon juice

And I chop all my vege in 5 seconds in my .

Checkout my Thermomix page .a.side.of.margarita for more food action.

What's your fave way to meal prep???

I went to the movies today with a friend and our kids and we all got an intermission cookie 🤤 (IYKYK). I posted it to my stories on my personal page but not this one because I was conscious of sharing about eating "something naughty" yet again on what is meant to be a "health & fitness" page.

But do you know what, screw it...

This is my page and I like to eat.

I have a sweet tooth.

I love carbs.

If I want something sweet, I will eat it.

-

I am all about (aiming for) moderation.
Sometimes I achieve that better than others.
And that is OK!!

•drink your water
•eat your protein and vege
•move your body and get your steps
•enjoy something sweet if you want it

Yes, my job is to help people with their health and fitness, and I do that but I don't pretend to be something I am not.

I will never be a PT who lives to train and has the physique to go with it.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with that, it's just not me.
If you want to follow someone who trains everyday and is ripped then I am not your guy.

I will always be a trainer who trains to live and eats the food.
Who trains so I can run around with my kids.
Who trains so I can walk up mountains.
Who trains so if I get injured I will recover better.
Who eats to nourish and support my body.
And I will also always be the trainer who eats the chocolate and the cookies because I like them.

Hopefully that all come across the way I mean it to.

Hashtagyolo✌️

So on that note, enjoy some pics of the deliciousness I have eaten this week 🫶

Client shoutout to this little lady!!

Meet Lucy. She has been training with me for a year now, twice a week, every week and in that time she has really come out of her shell and truely blossomed - it has been an absolute joy and privilege to watch, and be a part of.

Yes, Lucy is much stronger and fitter than when she started, but her greatest success in the gym to date is how confident and comfortable she has become in the space, and in herself.

A few weeks ago I told her that myself and some other clients were entering a 10km run and did she want to join us, with a HUGE grin on her face she said yes - the girl who moaned nearly the whole way the first time we ran 2km late last year.

Today we smashed out our first 5km together and I couldn't be more proud of her!!

Keep being you Miss Lucy, and here's to many more sessions filled with sweat and laughter 💜
