Living For The Weekend? Gaining and Losing The Same Couple of Pounds?

Picture the scene. You’ve spent all week working hard to stick to your food plan and creating a calorie deficit with the hope of seeing the scales shift downwards at the end of the week.

Then, the weekend arrives, and you take something of a more ‘flexible approach’.

Have you ever thought about how (annoyingly) easy it is to cancel out your hard-gained calorie deficit over the weekend – and perhaps even end up in a calorie surplus?

Are you in a cycle of losing and regaining the same pound or two for months at a time?

The weekend […]

Happy New Year!

January is the time of new beginnings – many of us are starting the year with a diet.

Let’s have a think about gaining weight over Christmas.

We all worry about gaining weight over Christmas, but please remember that months of hard work are not undone with two days of extra food intake. If we’re talking about a whole week of turning a blind eye to every serving of every treaty food imaginable, then you’re looking at a different picture – but, a couple of days of a bit of extra intake is not going to undo the progress you’ve made up to now.

It’s true that every day you’re not following your […]

For our final part of this series, let’s take a look at how we should eat now we’re not 20.

I’ve left this one to last because really the upshot is that playing by the rules becomes more and more important as you get older, and given that I’ve previously written a lot about how to structure your diet, you’ll already know most of this.

The first thing is to remember that the way you eat really does make a difference to how you feel, how you sleep and to your overall health.

The days […]

Next in our series of things to do now you’re not in your 20’s, let’s look at exercise.

Exercise is important throughout our lives, but the way we approach it should change as we get older.

The first thing is to dedicate more than a minute to warming up before your workouts. Things take a little longer to get going than they used to, so do mobility drills and get the blood moving before you start to do the main part of your workout. You might be surprised at how well you can move after a proper […]

If you’re not in your 20’s any more, this series is for you!

As we start to get older, our bodies become a little different – I’m sure you’ve noticed that since you left your 20’s, things just don’t work quite the same any more.

But, getting older doesn’t mean you can’t do the exercise you enjoy and be fit, strong, flexible and healthy. Often, we can become even better than when we were younger.

This said, there are definitely legitimate changes around how we should approach exercise as we start to get […]

About Your Foot Posture

Strap yourselves in for this one. It’s a bit of a long one, all about your feet – but I hope you find it interesting and helpful!

Unless we’re in pain, most of us rarely think about our feet, but the mobility and ‘posture’ of our feet is a huge factor in the way we move.

In fact, a growing percentage of us wear orthotics daily, hoping to reduce pain or correct foot movement or posture.

And orthotics can work. Supporting the arch of your foot does provide pain relief – but, they should only be a short term solution […]

They say that a flat stomach is made in the kitchen, and that is definitely the first place to look, but, the way you exercise has a big impact too.

Think about how your workout is structured for your legs and your arms.

How many exercises do you do for your legs or arms? Quite a lot, I’d guess – you’re probably doing at least three sets of at least two exercises for your arms and for your legs.

What do you go when your arm and leg exercises get too easy? Most likely, you make them harder in […]
