MICRONUTRIENT IMPORTANCE: WHEN A FEW “VEGGIES” AREN’T ENOUGH

I was guilty of it myself for over 3 decades. Macros and their ratios/amounts were always the most important things to me. As long as I knew what percentages of carbs, protein and fats along with how many grams of each I had to consume tied in with my overall calorie intake depending on whether I wanted to gain muscle and/or lose fat I was golden…or was I? (Not sure what Macronutrients are take a read here https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1376738975812324&id=50779

We've had blinds fitted!

Thanks to Julie and her nephew from Belfield's Bespoke Blinds in Conisbrough who came and fitted these blinds across the big windows in the main gym today - which was NOT an easy job! 🙈 They look super smart and will help to keep the sun out on hot days and the heat in during colder days, which I'm sure are just around the corner 🙄 We received a brilliant professional service today with exceptionally competitive pricing, so would highly recommend them to anyone looking for

Get a tighter waist: Abs and core

I filmed an intermediate abs and core session earlier this afternoon and tried uploading it for about two hours before realising it was 2GB hence the lower res video. 🤦🏾‍♀️ You'll get to hear my best telephone voice on the voice over 🤓 I, like a lot of people would love deeply chiseled abs but the fact is without the front abdominal muscles being well developed and of course low body fat, they wont be. Admittedly abs and core aren't my strongest point (in fact I rarely tra

30 Minute Home Leg Workout with Resistance Bands

Burn some fat with this fast paced leg workout with resistance bands. This wasn't quite what I'm used to when it comes to leg training, but we managed to do a quick leg workout in 25 minutes with bands. It gets the job done and gives a super leg pump plus burns a boat load of calories!!! 🤢 Please make sure you have plenty to drink during your workout especially on these warmer days, it was extremely warm when we filmed this and I probably didn't drink enough fluids during th

Why Breakfast Is Important

𝗕𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗸𝗳𝗮𝘀𝘁 | 𝘽𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙠 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙁𝙖𝙨𝙩...Don't skip it! The most important meal of the day as we're always told which is pretty much correct. During the night our body gets up to all sorts of weird and wonderful stuff whilst we're asleep including: ▪️Hormone release such as growth hormone which is essential for growth and development. ▪️Working towards restoring damage caused to our bodies whether this be damaged muscle tissue through training or cuts/injuries etc. ▪

Mint Choc Berry High Protein Pudding

*•.¸♡🍓🍓♡¸.•* Kind of at a loss with what to post on Facebook during this very strange/difficult period of time. Coronavirus has left businesses closed and people are spending more time at home than ever. We could post more stuff about proper training but it would all be in vain what with gyms closed everywhere. There will be more great home workouts coming, I just need to wait for a camera person to help when possible. There will also be more bodybuilding pictures! But to

How to get great six pack abs for summer

Everyone would love to have abs showing all the time and some people do. So what's the main thing they do differently? Well, in my opinion it comes down to two things. 1) The main factor, a consistently clean diet and 2) Well developed front abdominal muscles. Honestly though, if your body fat is too high you're not going to see your abs so THE MOST important factor here is diet. So if you want abs for summer then you better check what you're eating and how much effort you'r

THE BEST THING FOR FAT LOSS?!

Want to strip belly fat? Leg fat? Bum fat?!! No problem... I've got you covered. Hands down this has to be the best fat burner around. 😜 Now I'd recommend staying on it for at least 8 weeks, this is when I've seen pretty decent results. I don't think there's anything quite as good as this. Seriously. And it works for like, literally almost anyone. ⬇️ ⬇️ ⬇️ STOP EATING SO MUCH SH1T AND EXERCISE MORE. Seriously. Harsh? Maybe so, but we've noticed quite a few people over the pa

Q: DO YOU CUT CALORIES TOO LOW IN AN ATTEMPT TO LOSE BODY FAT?

Here's a few very important reasons why you shouldn't. 🚫 It can be very tempting to reduce food and calorie intake if you want to lose fat/change body composition for an upcoming holiday or if you just want to feel a bit better about yourself. However without the right guidance people often reduce them too low and wonder why they're not losing body fat. Then when they see little or no results or a stall in body fat reduction, they will try to reduce even more thinking t
