Happy 3rd December & DAY THREE 🎄 of our Fitness

Happy 3rd December & DAY THREE 🎄 of our Fitness Advent 2024 ✨

Today is your day to commit to locking in the habit of doing THREE strength training workouts a week.

It is recommended that healthy adults perform a MINIMUM of 2 days strength training a week (but we’ll shoot for 3 as it’s the 3rd advent challenge 😉after all that’s a minimum so we can strive for a little more ) with 8-12 repetitions of 8-10 different exercises that target all major muscle groups. You can achieve this through body weight exercises or use resistance bands, free weights, weight machines or medicine balls 😃
As we age we tend to lose lean muscle mass and strength training helps maintain & combat this loss.
Strength training also helps prevent osteoporosis, can decrease heart disease risk by lowering body fat, decreasing blood pressure & improving cholesterol.

Adding the right amount & kind of resistance training to your weeks will CHANGE YOUR LIFE.
You’ll feel more confident, productive & energetic.
You’ll gain balance & add a spring to your step enhancing your ability to thrive daily.
The benefits of resistance training are huge.
Start building this habit into your weekly routine today 💪

Happy 2nd December 🎄 So day one was: ONE purpos

Happy 2nd December 🎄
So day one was:
ONE purposeful, fitness walk out in nature a day
Now day TWO is to drink TWO litres of water a day (or thereabouts)

It’s actually better to keep a check on the colour of your pee - aim to drink enough in the day so your pee is a clear, pale yellow colour.
Water is a healthy, cheap choice to keep you hydrated but other drinks can also count towards your fluid intake such as tea, coffee, milk. We also get some fluids from the food we eat.
The UK eat well guide recommends 6-8 cups or glasses of fluid a day which is roughly 2 litres.
Staying hydrated will make you feel brighter and more energetic.
So, if you’re feeling at all sluggish try drinking more fluids each day for the rest of this month (& beyond) & see if it makes a difference.
Dehydration can lead to dizzy spells, feeling lightheaded, feeling tired all the time & sunken eyes…
Bring back your own sparkle this Christmas by drinking enough water 💦 ✨💖

Happy 1st December 🎄 It’s been a while but

Happy 1st December 🎄

It’s been a while but I thought I’d spend the next 24 days reminding you of the small daily habits you can add to your routine now that will improve your health & wellness both physically & mentally & help you FEEL GREAT throughout this month & beyond…
I might throw in a few quick workouts & recipes you can try too 😃

It’s so true - even when you least feel like it

It’s so true - even when you least feel like it or you are feeling particularly stressed or sad - exercise has this superpower to make you feel better. It’s so simple and yet so many of us still don’t use exercise enough to make ourselves FEEL GREAT.

Physical activity has the power to change the way you feel and it works at any age.

Studies have shown that a single bout of activity can have immediate mental health benefits enhancing mood, energy and focus as well as reduce anxiety, depression, anger and tension. Even as little as 15 minutes can have immediate mental health benefits.

And you don’t have to go to a gym - just step outside. Time spent in nature and exercising outdoors can help relieve stress and increase energy and boost mood.

You can still build strength, have more energy and ENJOY working out in your 40’s and beyond with the right programme and support network around you - it’s never too late - get out there, walk, carry heavy stuff and move your body! ❤️💪💯🙌

Walking, lifting weights, sleeping enough, hydrati

Walking, lifting weights, sleeping enough, hydrating, eating well - they are all major constituents of health and wellbeing but what about our MINDSET & stress levels? 🤯

Also SUPER important

So many of us place way too much power in worrying about what other people think of us and hold ourselves back because of it - elevating daily stress levels and decreasing happiness.

Imagine what life would look like if we stopped worrying about what other people think of us… how liberating would that be?

I mean - ask yourself this: Does it make you happier and less stressed to worry what everyone is thinking about you or what ‘might’ happen next week or worrying about what your friends are doing?

Does it make you happier when you scroll social media and start thinking about how much weight you’ve gained or that you need to purchase more as your wardrobe is a bit outdated, or wishing you could also book that dream trip to the Maldives?

Are you worrying and placing too much power in stuff that is actually making you miserable? If worrying about all of the above things and other peoples opinions of you made you feel more secure and worked for you, gave you more time and made you happy then GREAT!

But it doesn’t.

Stop wasting energy caring about what you think other people think about you & start investing that energy on your own life and goals.

One great advantage of a regular exercise routine is it makes you stronger…physically and mentally.

Have more fun, concentrate on what makes you feel great and do more of that ❤️

Looking for a CORE Workout? Try this one & please

Looking for a CORE Workout? Try this one & please share. Read on to find out why and how this will REALLY help you feel stronger everyday! 🔥

Firstly, endless amounts of crunches & planking until quivering exhaustion is NOT necessary to build ‘core strength’ or ‘six pack abs’.

SO what exactly is THE CORE and WHY & HOW do YOU best train it?

Your core is your entire trunk region from your shoulder joints to your hip joints including the bones, cartilage and tissues that provide trunk support and the muscles that create or prevent movement.

The torso moves through flexion (bending forward) extension (leaning backwards) lateral flexion (leaning to the sides) and rotation (twisting to the sides).
The muscles in the abdomen, back and hips ALL work to achieve these movements of the core. So we need to build a short list of exercises that can do all of the above! However you can probably see now that nearly every exercise imaginable can fundamentally be a core exercise! We need exercises to cover the following:

Core strength - working through dynamic range of motion applying and resisting force
Core stability - controlling the position of the trunk and prevent motion
Core Stiffness - using the core muscles to stabilise the trunk while moving from the hips and shoulders. So here are my chosen few:

2 Sets, 8-12 reps, medium tempo (each side where necessary) ❤️

1. Stability Ball Crunch (Flexion)
2. Back Extension (Extension)
3. Dumbbell Side Bend (Lateral Flexion)
4. Russian Twist (Rotation)
5. McGill Modified Curl Up (Antiflexion)
6. Forearm plank (leg lift optional) hold 10-30 secs or count leg lifts (Antiextension)
7. Side plank (knee crunch optional) hold 10-30 secs or count leg lifts (Antilateral Flexion)
8. Dead Bug (weights optional) (Integrated exercise)

And remember…exhaustive amounts of crunches and hour long planks WILL NOT selectively remove fat from your abs… body part–specific exercises DO NOT create preferential fat loss in one region of the body over another.
HOWEVER body fat can be reduced by any exercise routine performed consistently combined with a healthy diet that contributes to a negative energy balance.

Resistance training offers numerous benefits for w $Resistance training offers numerous benefits for women of any age but especially as we get older & our muscle mass naturally decreases. Incorporating regular resistance training sessions into your fitness routine can help you age gracefully and maintain a high quality of life. Whether you use your own body weight to do functional movements or exercises using weights, regular resistance training can help offset age related muscle loss & maintain overall strength & functionality. Weight bearing exercises are beneficial for bone health by stimulating bone growth & density & can help reduce the risk of osteoporosis & fractures which become more common with age. Improving your overall strength to perform daily activities helps you maintain independence as you age & strong muscles make tasks like carrying shopping, climbing stairs & lifting grandchildren easier & safer as well as helping with joint pain, reducing the risk of injuries and helping with balance to avoid falls. Studies have shown that regular resistance training has numerous mental health benefits too such as reducing stress, anxiety, depression and boosting mood & overall wellbeing, promoting a positive outlook on life. And there’s more… improving posture, building muscle to support the spine, enhancing balance & coordination, increasing energy levels, boosting vitality & stamina the list goes on… And it’s never too late to begin… this is my mum training and she’s 77 years old 🔥💪 Start today ❤️$

The first step is always the hardest but wherever

The first step is always the hardest but wherever it is you want to get to with your health & fitness you’ve got to have a start point to take your journey from.

I get so many questions from people asking whether this exercise is better than that or which diet they should follow and most of the time instead of doing the basics & getting started on a regular, consistent routine they are getting bogged down jumping from trend to trend with no simple, steady route map planned out.

Just stop & ask yourself are you training on a regular basis?

Are you getting a good nights sleep most nights?

Are you eating whole foods & veggies on a daily basis?

Do you have a routine?

Do you need to just simply get started on the basics?

Stop scrolling through all the videos saying you’ll start next week when you find one that suits your goals …

Just start. Today.

Go for a walk
Drink some water
Eat some veg & protein
Start with a few basic functional strength moves (squat, lunge, push up, row, torso twists, balance on one leg - I outlined this a few posts back)
Get to bed at a decent time instead of wasting time scrolling for another diet idea…

Don’t make it difficult to execute, make it a simple daily practice.

If you want to invest in yourself & have a workout plan scheduled daily for you - no guesswork required - a team to help you build daily habits & a positive community to cheer you on join the @feelgreatin28 app at www.fit4mum.com

But remember, you can keep reading, watching & learning all there is to know about supplements, diet plans & workout routines to reduce body fat & help menopause BUT if you aren’t training regularly, regularly eating wholesome foods within your calorie needs & building positive daily habits nothing will help improve your strength & wellness long term.

YOU have to start and do the basic work consistently & then you’ll WILL begin to feel great everyday.

Just start.
