25.01.2022 Want to train better? Sleep better. FACT- Athletes that average less than 8hours sleep a night are 1.7x more likely to get injured. Many of us are guilty of sacrificing sleep in an attempt to get more hours in a day. However we fail to realise the ripple effect this can have on our bodies ability to perform, repair and progress both in and outside of the gym.... If youre serious about maximizing your output, sleep must be high on your priorities. Here are our top tips for a restful sleep; Make sleep a high priority. Aim to get to bed around the same time each day, to support your circadian rhythm and allow you to get in that 7-9 hours every night. Establish a nighttime routine, this may involve taking a warm bath, reading a book, or lightly stretching, having a routine helps your body recognise its time to wind down. I recommend switching your phone off at least an hour before bedtime to help improve the quality of your sleep. Create a calm environment (comfortable mattress, dark quiet room, temperature controlled 15-20 degrees is suggested to be optimal for most) Limit coffee and alcohol. Stick to one coffee per day, before midday, to avoid disrupted sleep. Also watch your alcohol intake, as this can lead to a shocking sleep - weve all been there. Daily exercise helps improve sleep - just avoid working out too close to bedtime, so your adrenaline isnt pumping as youre trying to close your eyes. The ripple effect of actually feeling rested can have a profound effect on your energy levels, mood. ability to train and function.

24.01.2022 One in three Australian men and one in 10 women dont consume adequate Zinc. . Inadequate levels result in a low or slow functioning immune system. Zinc plays a key role in wound healing, meaning low levels may result in cuts or sores taking longer to heal. It also plays an essential role in male reproductive health and in the production of healthy sperm.... . The main sources of zinc are meat, cereals & dairy. Other sources are legumes, seafood, cashews and pumpkin seeds, however the body is generally able to absorb zinc from animal proteins more effectively than plant-based proteins. This means vegans and vegetarians need to be extra mindful. . Men have an RDI of 14mg of ZInc per day and generally need to consume more Zinc than females, however pregnancy increases a female's RDI from 8mg to 11mg per day. . If you have any concerns about Zinc or other nutrient deficiency get in touch with our Director & Nutritionist Maeve.

24.01.2022 Remember that someone else life is not your life. Your body is not their body and your diet should not be their diet. Your metabolism and genetics are not their metabolism and genetics. Your biomechanics are not their biomechanics. Instead of focusing on what they do, or what you 'should do' focus on what you CAN DO. Drink water (aiming for about 2-3 litres). Eat colourful fruits and veggies (aim for about 2 serves of fruit and 5 serves of veggies).... Exercise in a way that challenges you but makes you feel good. Sleep enough (between 7-10 hours for most). Eliminate only foods/ingredients that cause YOU issues (ignore the office ladies gluten free, organic, ketogenic rants). Check your mindset (if you feel things slipping do one small thing that brings you peace like stepping into the fresh air or texting a loved one). Eliminate what doesn't help you evolve (this could be excessive social media, people or thoughts) Make YOUR life healthy and focus on long term sustainability. #sustainable #wellness

23.01.2022 As coaches, educating and motivating people is what we do. At ON&T we dont just tell our clients what to do - we explain the why behind our exercise prescription.

22.01.2022 From one coffee lover to another, it's time for an eye opener. Caffeine is an amazing natural pre-workout, improves alertness and has shown to be a protective factor from some disease. The average shot of coffee contains 75mg of caffeine which stays in your system for far longer than you may realise. Caffeine has a half life of 4-6 hours, meaning that the total dose of caffeine in your body will continue to halve every 4-6 hours before it's eliminated. So for those consuming ...upward of 2 coffees with their lunch, that leaves a whole lot of coffee in your system at midnight. Everyone has a different caffeine sensitivity but for many, caffeine disrupts sleep, can heighten anxiety and can cause gastrointestinal upset. For most of us 1-2 coffees per day is very safe - but next time you find yourself reaching for your 3rd it might be time to check yourself.

22.01.2022 We are very pleased to announce that Spiral Physiotherapy will be operating out of The Optimum Nutrition & Training Center and welcome Daniels expertises. Dan graduated from La Trobe University with a double degree in Applied Sciences and a Master in Physiotherapy Practice. His physio pursuits were catalysed by an ACL knee injury (while playing competitive basketball) and a wish to aid patients with their rehabilitative goals. This lead to Dans transition from work as a qu...alified electrician to a career in physiotherapy. Dan strives to approach physiotherapy in a very patient-centred manner. Nothing pleases him more than seeing his patients achieve their goals. Dan has worked closely with basketballers, footballers and powerlifters. Consequently, he has a strong understanding of load management and biomechanics. Dan takes immense satisfaction from implementing evidence-based practices to treat conditions such as acute/persistent pain, muscular strains, ligamentous sprains, tendinopathies and joint pathologies. @ Optimum Nutrition & Training

22.01.2022 Transformation looks different for everyone! Our girl @nikkiwfit has worked harder than most to get herself in this position. A health and wellness journey isnt always about weight loss. Nikki has been grinding hard in the gym working with Head Coach @michaelgalante_ont for nearly 18 months. Her dedication and commitment to the process has been unrelenting. She has trusted our knowledge and adhered to every direction and to say we are proud is an understatement. ... Nikki you are a strong powerful woman and we are blessed to have you part of Team ON&T Congratulations! We have no doubt that you will continue to achieve big things.

20.01.2022 LOCKDOWN 2.0 It hit us like a punch in the face! In life second chances dont come around often, so we have decided to take this opportunity to work harder and smarter. ... For ON&T group sessions that means the addition of live Zoom sessions to accompany our equipment rental. For PT, that means more weights crammed into the car to ensure progressive overload for our clients For us as business owners it means more time to focus on our own training and individual skills. For Michael more time to immerse himself in comp prep strategy and for Maeve more time to invest in nutrition research and new software Control your controllables and always find a positive. What are you doing differently in lockdown 2.0?

19.01.2022 Hands Up If You Miss The Gym

18.01.2022 @michaelgalante_coachont He always knew he would be a coach of some sort. He has had 3x ACL reconstruction surgeries. ... He hasn’t missed more than 5days of training in 7 years. He has a fear of Bees. If he could wind back the clock, he would have studied to be a chiropractor. #letsdothis #preston #prestongym #melbournept #ptmelbourne #fitnessmelbourne #melbournefitnessblogger #melbournegyms #gymspiration #fitnessmotivation #melbournehealth #personaltrainers #melbournepersonaltrainer #melbournenutritionist #melbournenutrition

18.01.2022 With Anzac Day just around the corner its time to add these to your iso-baking to do list. This is my favorite recipe. While Anzac biscuits are traditionally made with lots of white flour and sugar, this healthier recipe is based on a combination of rolled oats and heart-healthy olive oil. @ Optimum Nutrition & Training

16.01.2022 OVERTRAINING Many people believe that the harder we train, the better the result and ignore the evidence that this is blatantly untrue. If you are training seriously without paying proper attention to nutrition, sleep and recovery, and failing to factor in the demands of a busy, stressful life you could be setting yourself up for burnout. ... COMMON SIGNS OF OVERTRAINING Not making progress (in performance and body composition) Poor quality sleep Low energy/mood/libido Constantly getting sick/injured Increased resting heart rate Loss of menstrual cycle in females MINIMISE THE RISK WITH Structured & periodised training from a coach who cares Fuel your body with adequate nutrition Manage stress Prioritising sleep Supplement to fill nutritional gaps If you are guilty of double training sessions, following low calorie diets and not listening to your body consider the negative implications. Overtraining is subjective and what works for one person won't necessarily work for another, just as what is overtraining for one person isn't for another

16.01.2022 25 SLEEPS LEFT FOR 2020! Oh what a year! I know many of us are looking forward to Christmas celebrations with loved ones and cheersing the end of 2020.

So plan your 'post-feasting' session, recruit a training buddie for a 2on1 or start those New Years resolutions early. #christmas #personaltraining #goals

15.01.2022 Anything is possible if you are willing to work for it. In one of our challenges this beauty Rosa lost an impressive 6kg and 6% body fat while gaining 800g of muscle mass. Even more important is the mental transformation and subsequent increase in confidence. She is a psychologist, mother of three and like many of us she is time poor. She is proof that if you want something bad enough you can make it happen.... Make 2020 your year to shine

14.01.2022 What you put in your mouth really does show on the outside. Functional nutrition can be very powerful & by including more of these foods into your regular diet you can achieve brighter and healthier looking skin. Tomatoes contain lycopene, a seriously awesome antioxidant that neutralises free radicals that cause premature aging. A study found that those who consumed tomato paste 33% more protection from the sun. Dark Chocolate, for youthful skin. Flavanols, antioxidants f...ound in dark chocolate can slow the signs of aging. Furthermore it can help your body produce endorphins, reducing stress and making you feel good. Kiwi fruit, for spot free smooth and firm skin. Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that helps to reduce inflammation and prevent pigmentation and discolouration. Vitamin C is also needed for the development of collagen, which you need for healthier, thicker skin. Brazil nuts, for tight and smooth skin. They are loaded with selenium, a nutrient power house that helps maintain elastin, a protein that keeps your skin smooth and tight. Salmon, for dry skin eczema and psoriasis. Oily fish like salmon is loaded with healthy fats (EPA and DHA, healthy omega-3 fats) that help to combat skin inflammation. Yoghurt, for eczema and psoriasis. Good yoghurts contain probiotics - as opposed to just 'live cultures'. They aren't the same thing. The probiotics in yoghurt help reduce inflammation for clearer, more spot free skin. Avocado, for clear, hydrated skin. Full of good fats and can help balance those blood sugar levels. This means more stable mood, energy, hormones and clearer skin. Pumpkin Seeds, to heal red spots. Foods high in zinc like pumpkin seeds will help with wound healing and can help clear up the spots fast. Oats, for firmer skin. Whole grain cereal naturally contains silica, a nutrient that helps to keep skin elastic and collagen healthy. Of course, no amount of healthy foods can balance out too much stress, not enough sleep and out-of-balance hormones. But when all pillars of health are aligned these foods can have you feeling radiant and glowing.

13.01.2022 50,000 steps and 35km later we did it - The Long Bloody Walk! This event raises awareness and much needed funds for Mitochondrial disease which is a debilitating genetic disorder that robs the body’s cells of energy, causing multiple organ dysfunction or failure and potentially death. #bloodylongwalk #bloodysorefeet #mypoorhips

13.01.2022 YOU EVEN MEAL PREP? Firstly, let me start by saying that 'meal prep' doesn't automatically mean a fridge full of perfectly weighed broccoli & chicken in takeaway containers. Meal prep can be as simple or as elaborate as you want it to be. ... Let me lay out what I do to meal prep most weekends. Shopping aside, the following usually takes me 2hours. Write a plan. I start by writing out our dinners, then I add in breakfast and lunches. We often eat the same thing 3-4 days in a row for breakfast and lunch, so they are easier to fill in. Make a grocery list and shop accordingly. Start prepping! You DO NOT need to prep full meals. Small steps like cooking a batch of rice, chopping some veggies, or tossing some chicken in the slow cooker are going to help you out BIG TIME during the work week, I promise. The following are no-brainer prep hacks we do every week; Batch cook one meal that can be frozen (things like meatballs, slow cooked meats, soup, chilli con carne keep really well) Bulk roast 2-3 pans of vegetables to be added to lunches throughout the week. Cut and marinade meat/proteins to make midweek dinners speedy Pre-prepare a couple of good snacks to have on hand (no-brainers for me are overnight oats, frittata/egg muffins, chia pudding) Wash and prepare any salad ingredients that can last a few days after being cooked. Meal prep is a great way to encourage healthier eating habits, reduce stress and save time and money. If you have any meal prep tips/go to options I would love to hear them below

10.01.2022 You can’t put in 60% of the work and expect 100% of the results. You wouldn’t ask a hairdresser to dye one half of your hair, and then be surprised your whole ...hair isn’t colored. So don’t be surprised when you only put in half of the effort with your nutrition and only train ‘when you feel like it’ that’s you don’t get the results you were hoping for. I know that changing habits is difficult and that life is complicated - but if your not doing the work then you are your own biggest barrier to change. Also bare in mind that None of us are as smart as ALL of us so surround yourself with a team who will make the journey to change easier. An expert for knowledge, a cheerleader to support through the tough days and a realist to call you out for your own BS. Anything is possible if your willing to work for it.

10.01.2022 Have you ever noticed that when you're stressed you crave sugar? Stress creates higher amounts of cortisol ( stress hormone) in the body to fuel the fight or flight response. When the body is in this state it will call on the use of sugar to fuel your body for the perceived threat.... Furthermore sweet treats gives our body a boost of the happy neurotransmitter, serotonin which makes us feel good! Sometimes, during a very stressful day our body just wants a bit of pleasure - and thats not a bad thing! However if its happening more often then not it may be worth managing. Fast paced lifestyle, coupled with the everyday stressors can increase cortisol production. Consistently elevated cortisol can deplete minerals like Magnesium and B vitamins which can contribute to sugar cravings. In order to effectively minimise our stress response we must implement stress management techniques which take our body to a rest & digest state. Personally I find walking outdoors, disconnecting from technology and reading all work well for me. While prevention is the best cure, sometimes stress is inevitable. However there are dietary strategies that can assist with balancing blood sugar levels, and ensuring adequate dietary intake of key nutrients to assist with cravings. If youre the type of person that reaches for something sweet every time you have a hectic day it may be worth scheduling an appointment with Maeve.

09.01.2022 Stretching is a part of exercise that is often ignored, by athletes as well as us ordinary people. Stretching keeps the muscles flexible, strong, and healthy, and we need that flexibility to maintain a range of motion in the joints. Without it, the muscles shorten and become tight. That puts you at risk for joint pain, strains, and muscle damage. . Stretching takes up only about ten minutes of your time, but it can greatly add to your overall performance and increase the efficiency of your workout.

09.01.2022 Iron deficiency is the most common micronutrient deficiency in the world. Most people are aware of symptoms like fatigue & weakness, but low iron levels can also be related to impaired exercise performance and low immune system. Iron helps to make red blood cells & carry oxygen around the body. Adequate iron levels are also important for a healthy immune system & releasing energy from cells.... Low iron levels can be due to inadequate dietary intake, poor intestinal absorption, increased needs for growth & exercise, or blood loss. When a poor diet is the cause the following can help; Increase intake - swipe across for sources. Avoid tea, coffee & wine with meals as tannins in these drinks compete with iron for absorption. Vitamin C aids absorption, so consume alongside iron foods. Cooking vegetables increases the amount of available non-haem iron. As always seek advice from a qualified nutritionist / dietitian for individual dietary and supplemental advice.

09.01.2022 Is Lockdown 2.0 affecting your mood? If you can do yourself one favour today, make it a walk in the outdoors. Nature deprivation, a lack of time in the natural world, largely due to hours spent in front of screens, has been associated, unsurprisingly, with depression.... When you exercise, your heart rate increases and your body pumps more oxygen to your brain. That process can affect your overall positivity, as multiple studies have found that a well-oxygenated brain helps manage anxiety and depression. 20-30mins of aerobic exercise also releases mood-enhancing chemicals like serotonin and dopamine that can stick around in your brain for a couple of hours after you exercise.

06.01.2022 Bulgarian split squat is an awesome unilateral exercise that works the quads, hammies, glutes & core. This is an ideal exercise for someone who is progressing from a static lunge. This variation enables us to load up on the front foot, create more range of motion & core recruitment. More focus can be put of the glute when the foot is placed further away from the bench and in contrast a closer front foot will recruit more quad. ... Tips while performing: Keep the front heel down Don’t let the front knee roll inwards Push your weight through the front foot. Use full range of motion Control the movement; slow while descending and spend more time at the bottom of the movement Include 8-12 reps each leg on your next training session for a killer leg burn

05.01.2022 T I G H T M U S C L E S? Are your glutes always tight no matter how often you foam roll them? Or perhaps your hip flexors? Did you know that muscle weakness often masquerades as tightness.... Our body is always trying to protect us, so when a muscle isn't strong enough to cope with the demands placed on it, often it seizes up leading to that all too common feeling of tightness. No matter how much stretching or foam rolling you do the tightness will remain. In cases like this the only solution is strengthening the muscle. If something doesn't feel right, quite often it isn't. Strengthening our weaknesses is the best way to prevent injury and continue progressing.

03.01.2022 Have you jumped on the gluten free bandwagon to improve your health? Gluten is a protein found mostly in wheat, barley and rye. A gluten-free diet is a MUST for the 2% of the population diagnosed with celiac disease. Some people have wheat allergies and need to avoid wheat, but may be able to consume other gluten containing grains. ... For most of the population eliminating gluten from the diet is unnecessary. When we remove any whole food group we risk missing out in key nutrients that are beneficial for our health, in this case B Vitamins and fiber are usually the losers. Plus it's pretty damn delicious! A varied diet is generally a healthier diet and all things in moderation are good for the mind, body and soul. Enjoy your pasta

01.01.2022 Do you suffer from poor training recovery, headaches, fatigue, restless legs, anxiety and cramps? Magnesium, or rather a lack of could be an underlying cause. This is a mineral that I often see low in clients and personally supplement with daily. The primary causes are inadequate dietary intake, poor soil quality used in growing our produce and high levels of stress which deplete our bodies stores. ... Magnesium is an important mineral responsible for over 300 reactions in the body. It's a key component in energy production, bone health, glucose production and cardiovascular health just to name a few. Some key food sources include nuts (almonds, cashews, peanuts), seeds (pumpkin, flax, sesame & chia), wholegrains (buckwheat, quinoa, bulgur, wild rice & oats), dark chocolate, dark leafy greens, avocado and blackbeans. When supplementing, the form and quality is of utmost importance. Some forms are more easily absorbed by the body but may cause those with digestive issues to run to the bathroom. Seek advice from a professional and remember I am always here to help.
