POST-MATCH MEAL?!?! - Carrying on the theme from our previous posts, we thought we would have a quick snapshot look at the Post-Match Meal. Given that the players at #russia2018 will have performed a 90-min match, possibly even more given the latest matches ⚽ it’s clear there will be a depletion in the glycogen levels in the body. Hopefully this will be partly combatted with the correct mid match snack, however to address this further there are 3 key points: - ✅ Rehydrate - a...s we highlighted last week it’s key to replace the fluids and electrolytes lost from the body during sweating. This will help to keep the body hydrated and ensure the players can perform at 100% in the next match. - ✅ Replenish - given that the glycogen levels in the body will have dropped substantially from the beginning of the match, it is important to ensure that any post match meal helps to replenish them. One recommendation is approximately 0.5-1g/kg of body weight every hour for 2-3 hours post match however this may vary depending on the exertion of the player. These carbs should hopefully be of a good clean source, such as rice or pasta. - ✅ Repair - It is also important to remember that the body is essentially repairing itself post match from all of the strains and muscle damage that may have occurred during the 90-mins, therefore another important factor is ensuring there is enough protein supplied to the body. If there has been an appropriate pre-match meal consumed containing protein, this can still be contributing to the slow realest of nutrients into the body up to 5 hrs later, as a result as long as proper meal planning has taken place there is no need to down those protein shakes immediately post performance. - There’s a lot of chat about high GI foods post match, which can be useful, however unless you are required to perform again in a short space of time, ie. the same day, its not necessarily required to consume high GI foodstuff at that time. - Whats your thoughts? Any other useful tips for post-match refuelling? - Let us know and comment below…..⬇️ - #WellnessWednesday #workoutwednesday #gym #pegasustraining #training #nutrition #fifa

What’s the BEST Pre-Match Meal?
You might have noticed there’s a pretty big football event happening right now so we thought we’d have a quick look at some of the nutritional guidelines out there #fifaworldcup #fifa
✅ EAT CARBS - okay so it seems obvious, but the guide is 1-4g per kg of bodyweight. For the players on the pitch at #russia2018 thats probably going to be nearer the higher end.
... ⬆️ make sure these carbs are QUALITY STARCHY CARBS
✅ EAT 2-4HRS BEFORE THE MATCH/PERFORMANCE - try to eat at least 2 hours before to ensure you’re performing on a clear stomach. But less than 4hrs, to get the full benefit of the meal.
✅ DRINK WATER - okay so it maybe doesn’t need to be specifically water, but STAY HYDRATED. Just like any performance its important to stay hydrated to avoid a reduction in performance due to to dehydration. The specific amount of water to drink will vary with minimum guidelines being 6-8 glasses of fluid per day however given the additional training and environmental temperatures increasing sweat, this amount can increase drastically.
✳️ Essential to all of the above however is maintaining a good healthy balanced diet in the run up to any match or performance ensuring the bodies energy stores are appropriately stocked.
Do you agree with these guidelines….? Or do you have any other tips or suggestions? Let us know and comment below…..⬇️ #wellness #WellnessWednesday #workoutwednesday #gym #pegasustraining #training #nutrition

The team at Pegasus provide a first class learning environment whereby all students are pushed to reach their full potential. Having completed my level 3 diploma with them I can honestly say they are one of the best training providers that I have ever used. Too often providers rely on PowerPoint to deliver course content. Whereas this team develop conversations and discussions to deliver content: enhancing understanding and not just encouraging memorising facts and figures. I am delighted that I chose Pegasus and would recommend them to anyone who is serious about a career in the fitness industry. First class service delivery!

My learning experience through Pegasus Training, with its mix of theory and practical sessions, was first-class and we had lots of fun! The fact that they only take small groups is great because you get so much individualised support. I highly recommend them if anyone is looking for a career in the fitness industry.

Just recently passed my level 2 and 3 with Pegasus. Everyone on the team is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful . Can't thank them enough for providing me with a large amount of knowledge to make my transition into personal training clients all the more easier ! The course atmosphere is extremely laid back and in my opinion that makes it all the more easier to learn. To be honest it's actually the first course of any kind I've enjoyed coming to everyday (Was there for 6 weeks) so I can do nothing but highly recommend them ! Cheers guys 😎

Just completed my lvl 2 and 3 PT course with Pegasus Training and i can honestly say that chosing them was the best decission i made. Sean, Ray and Simon are so knowledgeable it's unreal, there is no question without answer and the way they aproach teaching to studends is just outstanding. They won't just teach you how to be a PT but also a Professional. I cannot thank them enough for being true and making the difference in this industy.

I started with Pegasus training 8 weeks ago and I have to say it was the probably one of the best decisions I ever have made. After my university education was complete, I was at a crossroads in what I wanted to do as a career. After much thought I decided that I wanted to pursue a career as a personal trainer. Through research I discovered about Pegasus and decided to come in and have a chat with Sean . Sean was very helpful in explaining what the 8 week course was all about and what it would entail. From that initial chat , I decided that they were the guys I wanted to do it with. Through out the eight weeks I have pushed myself harder than I ever had before( especially in the gym !) I was definitely undercooking the weights I could lift and now I'm feeling much more confident in myself and also in my ability to take clients as a personal trainer.

Ray and Sean were also great at teaching and they helped to make it as fun as possible.

Cheers guys , Rob .

I recently completed my Level 2 Fitness Instructor course with Pegasus Training. I honestly can't praise the guys highly enough, their knowledge is incredible & the way they teach & pass on that knowledge is second to none. If you are interested in getting the best education for yourself so that you can become the best in your field, look no further than Pegasus Training, it will honestly be one of the best decisions you ever make. Thank you to Sean, Ray & Simon for making this such an enjoyable experience.

I qualified as a personal trainer through Pegasus training a year ago and I want to say a big thank you to Ray and Shaun.

In just over a year I have gone from a self employed personal trainer to being the head personal trainer in one of the largest gyms in the west of Scotland as well as running my own military fitness training and bootcamp business.

If you want to be the best, you need to learn from the best and I wouldn't recommend any training provider over Pegasus.

I highly recommend Pegasus Training, it was the best course I've ever been on! After falling behind with my HNC fitness course at college due to family matters I decided to go into private training for my level 2+3 qualifications as I realised that the college course was geared more towards university than the personal training industry. I met with Sean and he was really friendly, welcoming and down to earth, telling me like it was and not hitting me with sales pitches like other training companies had done! We arranged a start date and I began the course the week after where I met Ray he is a really nice, funny and down to earth person aswel and that made the course even more enjoyable. I completed L2, 3, circuits, kettlebells , Trx and spin in 8 weeks and was so happy. I am now working in the industry starting my own Pt business through a well known gym and it's been a whole new experience once again. Things started off slow but you just have to stick in there like everything else in life! Thanks Ray Watts & Sean Porter, I will be coming to see you both again very soon ;-)

I have recently completed my Level 3 Certificate in Personal Training, along with Level 2 Suspension and Kettlebell training. I found it to be a completely different learning environment to any college or university. It is a much more relaxed way of teaching Sean and Ray operate who are active PT's with years of experience within the industry who know their stuff. These guys don't just read from slides, they use different teaching methods in order to get across the material and then some, teaching more than you need to know. I can absolutely recommend Pegasus for anyone who's ever thought about entering the Health & Fitness industry. They are willing to go the extra mile to give all the help and support you need. Whenever you want help with anything you get it even after the course is completed. I would like to thank Sean and Ray for all the knowledge they have given me. :)

I have just finished my level 3 training with Pegasus. An amazing course with fantastic trainers. Sean and Ray really take the time to go into depth with everything and teach you more than just what's in your manual! I also had to miss lessons and leave early some days due to work, they were really accommodating for this and I didn't feel like I ever fell behind because of it! Would definitely recommend any course with these guys!

I had the best experience training and learning from these guys. Totally recommend it, if your thinking about it, or not thinking about it, you should. Thanks for a great experience ��

I did the indoor studio cycling course it was a really good and very enjoyable especially the instructors Ray and Sean very good coaches will recommend to go with this training company the facility is very excellent and the restaurant food is very healthy it will be one of greatest experiences on a fitness course Pegasus training is a must I will definitely be going back this year .

I couldn’t be more happy to have completed my Level 2 & Level 3, plus a number of other courses, with Pegasus. Their professionalism, knowledge and expertise is without doubt first class. Each course is taught with passion and dedication, always ensuring that what is learned in theory is then applied in practice. The team is made up of amazing personalities who have your best interests at heart - no questions are left unanswered and support/advice is always available. An even bigger bonus is that it is such an enjoyable experience. It really was a joy to come in each day and learn from you all.



Sean, Ray, Jane and Simon - I can’t thank you enough for your time, patience and skills :)

I am 45, have 3 young children and this has been the best career decision of my life. Initially I started on the Level 2 Gym Instructor Course then got hooked and decided to do Level 3 PT, indoor cycling, circuits, kettle bell training and suspension straps and genuinely loved every minute of it. It's hard work mentally and physically but nothing worth while is ever easy! Sean and Ray are very professional and at the same time great fun. There is always a good dose of humour thrown into the day! I liked the fact they always taught you more than you needed to know and learnt lots from their experience and up to date knowledge of the industry. I can't wait to get out there and make it happen! I would highly recommend Pegasus Training to anyone interested in a career in the Health and Fitness Industry.

Having passed my level 3 personal training with Pegasus Training I can't thank the guys enough. Very professional and knowledgable in there profession which made the learning and training very enjoyable and interesting on a day to day basis. I highly recommend these guys if this is the route you wish to proceed with. Great education and guys to work with learning daily. Thanks again guys!

Great trainers. Over teaching but In the best way. Prepares you for every test and exam.

Hands on educating.

What ever course feeds you the dream that you'll pass with them. Don't believe you'll be educated and prepared for life as a PT. Learn from the best, and you'll be better and smarter for it.

Fantastic course! Highly recommend to anyone who wishes to start a career in personal training.. Best thing about it was both Sean and Ray who made the whole 8 weeks of my course a lot of fun while also giving me the education needed to become a fully qualified PT. Can't thank you guys enough. Will definitely be coming back for more courses.

Excellent service! There's nothing they don't know, nothing's a hassle and training is second to none. They genuinely want you to learn as much as you can and progress as far in the industry as possible. They even help you get a job by inviting general managers from gyms to help you in your future. Great training highly recommend to get you where you want to be as a pt or fitness instructor.

Excellent experience continuing my completion of level2 ETM. Highly recommend all coaches, Sarah in particular, for their individual, engaging styles and genuine interest in your development. Facilities are first class and all David Lloyd staff very welcoming. A truly personal, 1-1 and amazing learning environment. Good luck Ray and co.
