Fittest by Forty – Weeks 6 & 7
I'll admit it, I've been slack in writing. I don't really believe in making excuses but I do acknowledge that life sometimes gets in the way and in terms of week 6, I didn't really have much in the way of an update in exercise or healthy eating because I was on...
Fittest by Forty – Weeks 4 & 5
Apologies for combining Weeks 4 and 5, but as I was due to be travelling in Week 5 and 6, it all got a little bit manic at home and at work, so I've had to combine the two. Training did not stop, it just had to fit into a different schedule and took different forms....
Fittest by Forty – Week 3
PTSD Part 1 This is Week 3 and it's been a tough one to write about, not because the diet and exercise was hard, but because part of this journey has to be about acknowledging emotional healing and that involves "coming clean" in a way that many people in my life have...
Fittest by Forty – Week 2
When it comes to Personal Trainers, there is no doubt I am currently training with THE two ‘best of the best’ trainers in the industry. Both are two-time world champions in their sport and wonderful people to boot, which helps when someone is going to insist on 100...
Fittest by Forty – Week 1
As a Leadership Coach, I have to lead myself first, lead by example, make the changes I support my clients through and basically live the ethos of my coaching. And now feels like a great time to demonstrate that and take you with me on that journey. It is important to...
Grateful for every Mile
I haven’t updated for quite some time, not since the end of my no alcohol challenge which feels like a lifetime ago now. So many things are different since then but somehow still the same. Certified or Certifiable? I am now a Certified Personal Trainer having...
My 2017 in Review
As we all wind down our week towards Christmas and then the start of 2018, I am able to outright state that this year could not end soon enough. Don't get me wrong, my positive disposition means that I have managed to come up with an overwhelmingly awesome list of...
The Shred – Week 13, Day 85 – 90 – The End, or is it?
YAY! I did it, I made it to 90 Days without a single drop of alcohol or even alcohol-free substitute. Not one drop. I drank water, still or sparkling with ice and nothing else. I think that deserves a big pat on the back even if I do say so myself. Celebrating Berlin...
The Shred – Week 12, Day 77 – 84 – The Worst Week Yet
Week 12 sucked balls. Honestly, Week 12 was the worst week of the 13 so far. It could easily have been the end of the No Alcohol Experiment and no one would have been any the wiser. Nobody but me I guess. Believe me, the thought crossed my mind to fall unceremoniously...
The Enemy of Progress…
Have you ever had a "To Do" list a mile long will which keeps getting bumped into next week? Or maybe even next month? I've had some items that I have bumped into the next year and believe me when I say I have seen people bump things they define as important, into the...
