Shaun Mcgill Personal Training

The only thing stopping you achieving your goal is you.
Get your mind in the right place and you can achieve anything💪💪💪💪

Stop letting small setbacks get in the way of your long term results.
Forget about anything negative fast and remind yourself of the great things you have accomplished so far.
Don’t focus on the 2lb you gained one week and let it ruin your results going forward when you have lost 30lbs overall and you are doing amazing.
... It’s so easy to focus on negatives and over exaggerate negatives which leads to giving up. Instead you have to force yourself to forget about negatives quickly and think of the positives instead.
Forgetting about negatives fast really is an important skill in seeing long term results.

Enjoying exercise is essential for long term results.
If you go to the gym and you are bored out of your mind it won’t be long until you give up.
If you don’t enjoy going to the gym on your own find small group training sessions which incorporate weight training.
... You get the benefits of weight training whilst you have fun training with others.
Instead of dreading the gym and your hour long sessions drag on for what feels like a week, you may just find yourself looking forward to training with your new friends and the 45 minute sessions fly over before you know it.
You will even find you push yourself harder in a group and your training is more effective.

A couple of hill sprints after boxing this morning 🥊💪🥊💪
Best way to start the weekend😀😀👌👌

Another amazing achievement this week was Lucy getting the best time in Great Britain in her age category doing 500m on the ski erg and the 5th best time in the world in the 500m ski erg online rankings in her age category this year. Her amazing time was 1 minute 51 seconds.
This girl is super fit and and an inspiration and she doesn't even realise just how fit she is.

📢📢NEW 8 WEEK RECORD HOLDER📢📢
Eilidh Orr has manged to lose an incredible 42.5lbs in 8 weeks breaking the previous record held by Dean Curry by just 1/2lb.
Deans amazing record has stood for 7 years and I didn't think it would ever be beaten but Eilidh with 8 weeks of hard work, commitment, dedication and consistency has manged to set a new record.
... I couldn't be more proud of Eilidh. Not just because of her amazing weight loss but because she is finally believing in herself.
Eilidh is overcoming lots of mental barriers. Instead of putting herself down and thinking she can't do things before she even tries she is now way more positive and everyday she is growing in confidence. This month she is even second on the leaderboard for the 500m ski erg competition and a few months ago she wouldn't have attempted it in case she failed.
Its great seeing Eilidh get fitter and stronger by the session and the 42.5lbs loss is absolutely incredible. But Eilidh finally believing in herself like everyone at training has done for months is the biggest achievement. Everyone at training knows how fit and strong Eilidh is and believes in her losing weight and its great to see Eilidh now believing in herself.
Keep up the amazing work Eilidh. Still a long road to go yet for your wedding. I know you can do it, your friends know you can, Phil knows you can do it, everyone at training knows you can do it and NOW YOU KNOW YOU CAN.

@helen.d.ford.5 pushing a full stack of weights on the @escapefitness Quad sled. Very impressive.

Half way in to the first TRANSFORMin8 of 2019.
There is a good chance there will be some new record holders.
We have 25lbs down in 4 weeks. Could they beat the current record of 42lbs in 8 weeks?
... Then we have two people who have lost 5 inches off their waist in just 4 weeks. The record in 8 weeks is 5.5 inches.
And I have more weighins tonight to look forward to.
So far this has been the best group to go through the programme.
Maybe it is the prizes of £100 for most weight lost and £100 for best before and after photo thats helping motivate them that little bit more.

Lacking motivation to exercise part 5.
Set yourself fitness goals such as completing the Great North Run, Total Warrior or rough runner and set yourself targets in the gym such as deadlifting more or learning to do a pull up.
Giving yourself another reason to train other than weight loss.

Lacking motivation to exercise part 4.
Stop blaming not losing weight on exercise.

Very intense but exciting morning.
Managed to coordinate the purchase of 43 tickets to Bongos Bingo at Easter.
Going to be the biggest and wildest client night out yet😀😀😀😀
