Win that battle with the snooze button today. Healthy body, healthy mind, healthy soul.
Sure it burns SOME calories, but so does simply being alive...
👊 Most ripped/muscular yoga bunnies also train regularly with weights to get in shape. 👊 Yoga may improve certain aspects of strength, but is generally far less effective than other forms of training for building muscle. 👊 Yoga is still a valuable activity in other ways, such as helping flexibility and gently training muscles often overlooked in the gym.
We all know someone from this video... 😂

It may seem intimidating to go over to the weights area at first but the benefits are worth it!
THE FACTS:
👊 Weight training is a key component of most weight loss or body toning programmes.... 👊 Lifting weights will only make you "bulkier" when coupled with high testosterone and specific, mass-gaining diets. 👊 30 minutes of intense weight training can burn more calories overall than 60 mins of steady-state cardio.

If you ever lose motivation to improve your beast mode...
One for the other fanatics out there 💪
Another myth we hear every single day...
"Carbs = The Enemy"
👊 Carbohydrates are the largest component of almost all healthy diets.... 👊 Carbohydrates help to fuel your workouts better than any other nutrient. 👊 Healthy sources of carbohydrate can help people lose weight, lower risk of disease and heart conditions, and dramatically improve your general mood.
The key is researching HEALTHY SOURCES of carbs, rather than eating large quantities of refined and processed carbs! ;)

Healthy food doesn't have to be boring!
These meals were all cooked by personal training clients looking to trim up without sacrificing tasty food. If you resent the food you're making yourself eat you'll give up on your diet sooner or later, so it's worth discovering a bunch healthy meals that also taste amazing.
Top Tip: Grab a "Healthy Meals in 15 Mins" type of cookbook or google "Quick, healthy meals" for some ideas and inspiration!
👊 Quick Update: 👊
Theoretically there is nothing left to go over in terms of planning permission - we're just waiting on the last few boxes to be officially ticked.
I'm very hopeful that we can kick off the fitness classes properly by early/mid October, giving us a week or two after we get the go ahead to solidify everything and test things out.
... Thanks to everyone for your patience, we've had a few setbacks but very excited to finally kick off!
In the meantime I'll be posting some content on here starting next Monday - some educational pointers to help inform your own workouts and also some entertaining bits and bobs...
FINALLY once we get the go-ahead we will be launching a COMPETITION to win a FULL MONTH of FREE group classes! So once again, watch this space... 😉
Cheers all x
