Dinner on the deck...it's been such a beautiful day today, we ditched our planned left over chicken stir fry and went for a Greek 'chicken' salad served with a new potatoes, green beans, shallots & chorizo salad dressed in olive oil & red wine vinegar. It was delicious. The chorizo & potato salad would make a lovely side dish if you're planning on barbecue'ing this coming bank holiday weekend...(I think the weather cast - as my children would say 😂is a good one!) You can find the original recipe on my trusty go to site for yummy recipes @bbcgoodfood just search for Chorizo & Potato Salad... 🥗.

Along with the super motivated team of girls in the #feelgreatin28 #fit4mum fitness group I'm working hard on strength, balance, posture & all round fitness this week! 💪
Today was arm & Ab day, tomorrow we focus on cardio and more abs then Wednesday we're onto a fun leg workout before more cardio, abs & a full body workout to round the week off on Friday...
💪
Consistency & lots of fun are the key elements to our workouts and as busy working mums we try to get full impact in minimal time with our supercharged 30 minute workouts! 💪
Truth is as much as we want to move more everyday, sometimes life gets in the way but with our motto of 1 is better than 0 we inspire each other to just do a little something everyday, a few press ups, a few squats, it all counts & works towards a stronger body 😘
Try the exercises in the video:
1) 30 secs
2) 10 each side
3) 10 Reps
4) 30 secs
5) 30 secs
6) 30 secs
7) 5 each side
8) 10 .

I wouldn't complain if I was whisked off here anytime soon...😜 OK so that's not going to happen today, but the sun is out here in the U.K. & with the speed at which life is zooming along right now I think it's a good day to take a few minutes to sit and enjoy the moment... it's all too easy to get swept along in the rapid current of stress brought on by daily schedules, chores and life in general & miss the little things going on around us. Instead of getting pulled along and missing it all, take 2 minutes today to sit, breathe and enjoy the special things life has to offer ☀️😍

It's Weekend time again and I'm excited to be spending it with this lot! 💕
Working out daily, eating well & generally trying to keep fit & well are a big part of my life & I do it for a good reason... & that reason is this little lot 😍
Not just because they keep me on my toes (they're not the tidiest bunch 😩 I get a lot of my daily activity points just picking up behind them 🙃 🤔 😂) but these days the big driving force behind me doing my daily workouts is to keep up with them, being able to play & run around with them and generally join in with the active lives they now lead. I'm hoping if I keep at it, I'll continue to keep up with them for a few years yet too🤞
💕
Health & Fitness isn't all about looking good for summer or a party or training to run a race, it's about having a lifestyle that you commit to daily to be strong, be well & to live life without aches & pains and constant tiredness. It's about feeling well enough to thrive in a life of fun & adventure. 💕
I'm often asked what is the best kind of exercise to do for this & that & yes there are guidelines for effective health & fitness programming but the best advice I can give is to have fun with it, find something you love and have a reason that links to your life as a whole - because effective exercise, health & wellness come down to consistency.
That means moving more & eating well on a regular basis...as part of your daily routine not just on Mondays...
💕
Truth is people rarely succeed unless they have fun in what they're doing, so find something you love, do it regularly and stay focused on the reason why you do it... that way I have no doubt you'll reach your goals and hopefully health (good food) & fitness (exercise) will become part of your everyday lifestyle & not somewhere you're constantly struggling to get to 💪👍🤸‍♀️ 📷 @weshargravelauk .

Shaping up your butt isn't just great for days at the beach in your swimsuit... strong glutes can actually help keep lower back pain at bay too.
💪
When the 'glute' muscles are strong and working correctly they help control movements of the torso, pelvis, legs & hips & work to take strain off the spine.
💪
A few good butt exercises consistently practiced can wake up your butt muscles, reduce slack created over time, help keep the strength in your rear end & protect the low back from injury. 💪
There are many exercises you can choose, but a good place to start is the glute bridge (glute bridge march pictured) incorporate 10-15 Reps x 1-3 sets into your training plan 3 times a week and start firing up those butt muscles...🔥🍑💪

B U B B L E & S Q U E A K 🐭

This is a gorgeous plateful of poached eggs with smoked salmon & bubble & squeak...it was seriously delicious! I haven't eaten smoked salmon for ages... it can be a bit salty sometimes so I don't have it often but being an oily fish it contains good amounts of omega 3 fatty acids. The bubble & squeak is a mix of new potatoes, white cabbage, spring onions & chives fried up in a pan. Topped with a small slice of the salmon & then the poached egg...#yummy (310 kcals)

I've had my little man at home with me all day today, he's off school with a high temperature and tonsillitis 😢 so we made him this #delicious broccoli & Stilton soup, he loved it & it's super simple & quick to make. All you need is
25g butter
1 chopped onion
2 x 500g packs frozen broccoli
750ml hot veg stock
200g blue Stilton
All you need to do is melt the butter, soften the onions, add broccoli & stock, boil then simmer 12-15 mins, remove from heat, crumble then stir in Stilton, season & serve 😋 serves 4 (358 kcals per serving) full of fibre, vitamins & minerals & comfort for when you're poorly🤒💕
