25.01.2022 Missing being at work with these girls everyday But one thing I’ve taken out of isolation is to never take what we have around us for granted! A few things I’ve been doing to try and stay in some sort of a routine while being in isolation are; ... getting up at the same time every morning doing a morning workout or walk to get myself moving- I feel like this helps put myself in a positive mindset for the rest of the day try and have one thing I want to achieve for the day- could be to bake something healthy, learn something new about nutrition or fitness (anything!) sitting down for an hour to work on online programming and coming up with new and fun ideas to keep the programs interesting What have you guys been doing to try and keep some normality in your lives? #healthylifestyle #motivation

21.01.2022 Hard work and consistency pays off 6 weeks training 3 times a week working hard in every session and staying consistent never missing one! @oliviapsaroudis is truely showing everyone that after 6 weeks of training your mind set can completely change in such a positive way She’s put in extra work outside of her sessions, eating a balanced diet not restricting herself while enjoying a well balanced life style! ... I say to all of my clients it’s not about what the scales say! Everyone is different and has different body types and we should all love that about ourselves! Numbers aren’t anything. Feeling confident, happy, fit and healthy is what makes life extra special

19.01.2022 Having a healthy lifestyle is all about enjoying the balance it brings! Don’t be afraid to eat what you love it’s all about balance ... Chose ways to exercise that you enjoy if you don’t enjoy the type of exercise your doing your not going to stick to it don’t be afraid to socialise with friends on the weekend have a healthy relationship with going out and staying in The more your able to have a healthy balance in life the more your going it enjoy every moment of it #motivation #healthylifestyle

19.01.2022 RESISTANCE BAND LUNGES BENEFITS: 1. Good for knee stability as well as strengthening your core ... 2. Good for strengthening the stabiliser muscles around your knee 3. Strengthening the stabiliser muscles around your knees helps eliminate damage to the knee and around that area while running or playing sport HOW TO DO IT: 1. Wrap the band around a pole or get someone to hold it tight 2. You want to step away from the pole or person holding the band enough so you can feel the tension on the band 3. As you lunge down you want to focus on the front knee with the band wrapped around it and ensuring that you are pushing your knee towards the outside of your foot (towards your small toe) 4. Also try and open up through your hips as you lunge down as this will help allow you to get your knee tracking over the outside of your foot (as shown at the start of the video) I often use this exercise with my own knee troubles and have found it work really well especially if you are someone who plays a lot of sport and does a lot of dodging and agility work, this is a great exercise to add into your strength based programs to focus on reducing and damage or inflammation that may be caused! #health #fitness #education

17.01.2022 Progress in all aspects of life isn’t going to happen over night.. Be kind to yourself, remember everyone will be on a different journey to you

16.01.2022 QUALITY REPS OVER QUANTITY REPS Are you someone to go into your workout and only focus on how fast you can do your reps and how many you can possible get out? Or are you someone who goes into your workout and focuses on performing each rep correctly even if it means you don’t get out as many? My answer is you want to be person B someone who cares about their technique with every single rep that they do! ... Technique is at the top of importance when it comes to training especially weight training. If you aren’t going to do exercises with the right technique is there even a point in doing them? My answer is no.. You are definitely not going to recruit the right muscles, your stance or posture isn’t going to be correct either meaning an injury is most likely to occur. No one wants an injury.. So for me... be person B

15.01.2022 THE KEY IS CONSISTENCY Wanting to get started in your training or push your self that little bit further in your training sessions? Being consistent is key! ... being consistent in training each week will help further your training and better your technique, strength, overall fitness and wellbeing by being consistent with your training your technique starts to become stronger which leads to you becoming more confident with big lifts leading to you being able to lift some heavy weights with the right form we often think that motivation is what keeps us consistent but we aren’t always going to be motivated and that’s okay! Discipline is what keeps us consistent, aim to be disciplined and set out what days your training on with set workouts your going to do on each day and you will find yourself becoming more consistent leading to better results Consistency isn’t hard! Put your mind to something you want to achieve and keep chipping away at it and you won’t regret it!

15.01.2022 WHY DO YOU TRAIN? Is it because of enjoyment, or to burn calories, or to stay accountable? Training for me is something that I enjoy and it’s me time where I get to block out anything else that’s going on that day and just really be present in the moment. ... I don’t train to burn calories that I’ve eaten that day, I train because it’s something I love! I love mixing up my workouts from HIIT, strength, running, Pilates... anything really. I’m always doing something different to keep things interesting and this is something I’ve found has lead me to enjoy it even more! I’ve also found that having lighter days during my training week has increased my excitement for those tougher sessions What makes you want to train?

13.01.2022 3 things to think about during isolation 1. Be kind to yourself and listen to your body: each day is going to be different and that’s fine, some days your not going to feel like doing much which is also fine but try and find low impact alternatives such as a walk, a bike ride or a yoga or Pilates session to get your body moving for that day. You’ll feel 100% better for doing something 2. Plan each day as it comes: if planning your weeks out at the start of the week stresses... you out too much because you feel like you might not get everything done that you want to then plan each day separately! This will allow you to focus on daily goals which your more likely to achieve and also helps you feel like your in some sort of routine 3. Try and include something fun and exciting into your week: this could be making up new healthy recipes to share with everyone or it could be face timing friends on a Friday night for a catch up! Try and keep connected to those who are special to you, it will keep a positive affect on your outlook during isolation Hope everyone is well and has a lovely day xx #motivation #isolation

02.01.2022 HYPERTROPHY TRAINING What is hypertrophy training? A simple explanation is it’s a type of training method that improves muscular endurance, builds lean muscle mass, burns fat and builds strength What a great combo... Why is it a great training method to use while in isolation? With access to little or no equipment at the moment hypertrophy training is a great way to build + burn those muscles at home. By increasing your reps, sets or timing you are putting your muscles under tension for a longer period of time which increases muscle fatigue without lifting those heavy weights! What does hypertrophy training look like? Hypertrophy training is usually 3-5 sets of an exercise with 8-12 reps within each. Next time your wanting to get more out of your at home workout try adding in more reps, sets or longer timing to increase your workload this will definitely help in increasing your muscle strength and endurance #healthylifestyle #workoutmotivation
