Today in our community I spoke about how weighing yourself once a week can be working against you - even if you ARE making progress!

** TOPIC OF THE WEEK **
Do not worry about an 'off' weekly weigh in.
... The problem that I regularly see with weekly weigh ins is the inaccuracy and therefore disappointment of the measurement.
You see the body is always changing, adapting.
Your weight is likely to fluctuate daily, even if you are being super strict with your diet.
The problem I see often with people who weigh in once a week is that the measurement may be really un-motivating, despite a lot of effort going into the week to see a good result.
However if you had weighed a day earlier, or day after, you may have had better luck!
A big meal one evening can put a couple of pounds on your measurement the following morning...
So my message is this - do not be disheartened if you do not like what you see on a weekly measurement.
Instead try this:
1. weigh yourself daily 2. same time, same scales, with not clothes on and after using the toilet 3. after 7 days, take an average 4. track this for progress
Be aware though, you do not want to get 'obsessed' over the weight.
It is a tool for seeing progress, but NOT the 'be all and end all' of your progress!

Another great couple of sessions with the early bird beach fitness group!
Well done to everyone who has taken part so far this year... the weather has not been so friendly the last couple of weeks but let's hope we get a few more sessions in before the summer's out!

Bit too soggy for the beach this morning!
So we took it to the BARN for am epic circuit session.
Well done all 💪

Do you stop for a treat?
Even on the pursuit of fitness, I believe it important.
Give your willpower a break.
... Don't go too mad though! You must be able to jump back on the wagon.
Do you have balance in your diet?

Protein Veg Starch
The order in which I create my meals.
... 1. What protein am I going to consume? 2. What veg shall I add to it? 3. What starch (if any) shall I add to it?
It pays to be smart about your food.
80% of the time I'm doing this right, allowing me optional treats and meals our the other 20%

**EPIC RESULTS**
Here are the results from a client of mine over the last 2 months.
Looks pretty good!..:
... 17 pounds gone 5.5% body fat gone 32 cm's gone
But it is not all plain sailing.
We have some hiccups. A couple of weeks of binge eating and bad lifestyle choices.
This lead to an increase in weight and a decrease in self esteem.
What did we do? Built a plan to conquer this.
We decided to hit it hard for a couple of weeks. Be strict with the food and up the movements to burn away the excess.
The results?
The excess gone, and more.
The lesson here is that people are afraid to lose quickly. Afraid to go to hard.
This is because this is hard to sustain and will result in crashing and burning.
Well not necessarily.
We have hit it hard to 2 weeks and seen some awesome results.
But fatigue is kicking in and workout intensities are dropping therefore we are going to reassess goals and reintroduce more sustainable habits again now that the body image is back up to scratch.
Incredible proud of this one, specially considering the complexity of how we got there.
These measurements do not reflect the hard work put in!
Here are some tips to take away:
1. Always have a goal to aim for 2. Do not be afraid to hit it harder for a period of time 3. Have a plan of action for sustainability of habits and results 4. Listen to your body
I am introducing some new concepts into my body coaching programs and am looking for a couple new people to join me.

*2 SPACES GONE ALREADY*
Get in quick, we will start as soon as the spaces are full.

- 4 simple steps to building a fat loss plan -
Losing fat does not have to be hard nor does it have to be complicated.
All you have to do is the following when it comes to food:
... 1. Calories are king and therefore making sure you in a deficit throughout the day and week is vital for fat loss.
2. Eating foods you actually enjoy is critical for sustainability of the plan.
3. Keeping meals simple, easy and natural will avoid any hidden calories and processed foods.

I have learnt so much more during this experience - it is not just a weight loss programme. Although the results are remarkable. I never thought about having a personal coach before and couldn't have picked a better one. The whole program gets you thinking and working towards your own goals. My advice don't think about it - DO IT. Learn to value yourself "go on you know your worth it" 💪

I have been training with Rory for approximately 5 months. I came to Rory for help because I had increased my weight considerably over the last 4 years and it was time to sort myself out. He is easy to talk to about any challenges! regarding weight loss, fitness and nutrition, he pushes me further each week and I look forward to getting out of bed at the crazy time to train. I also have started to attend his circuit classes which are also fab and get to meet some new people. For me Rory is a great motivator and I will continue to train with him and achieve further goals!......PS...I will never like burpees though !

Great guy knows his stuff ! You will be in safe hands here!

Good depth in knowledge and varied techniques to reach your goals!

Best thing I ever decided to do was join Rory’s 12 week programme. I’ve never known 12 weeks to go so quick, but I’ve enjoyed every bit of it (maybe not the burpees lol) and I really cannot rate the whole experience highly enough!!! I will miss getting up super early � Thanks Rory �

Amazing I never thought I would enjoy exercise. Tried for years to change my shape and within 5 weeks of training my shape is totally different and so is my confidence! Thanks Rory

12 weeks ago I decided to do something that didn't come easy to me. I decided to put me first and focus on my happiness, something that I haven't done in a very long time. I decided to take on a challenge that I hoped would help me get back on track with physical and emotional health.



It has been tough, much tougher than I anticipated and there were many times when I wanted to quit and listen to the doubt and negative thoughts. Despite that, I fought through and by not quitting, I found out that I am tougher / stronger than I knew - physically and mentally. I am a warrior and I have got this sh!t.



On my way, I found happiness and confidence and self belief again. I found me again.



Thank you to Rory who has given me the tools I need to be able to continue this journey and who has helped me to remember who I am and understand what I am worth.



Through this process, I have learnt a lot - one of the most important lessons was that putting myself first and focussing on my happiness isn't selfish or wrong. Far from it, it's actually essential so that you can value yourself and understand what you should and shouldn't tolerate.



If you are prepared to freely give so much effort to make other people happy, you should be prepared to give just as much effort to make yourself happy. There has to be a balance.



Making yourself and your happiness a priority is allowed and is important, if you don't look after yourself, you loose who you are and finding the will to fight for yourself again when it seems like everything is darkness, is such a long and hard road. Don't put yourself on that path - instead, always have your own back.



People like Rory are so important in reminding us about things we too easily forget. Rory and The Barn totally rock!!
