1)It’s HARD Make no mistake, you will be tested Getting fit- and staying there- requires hard work, dedication and commitment. It becomes an all-consuming lifestyle which few are capable of, and even fewer can accept after years of lethargy. It is a long, hard journey full of failure and frustration. If this was easy, everyone would be fit. 2) Patience Is a Virtue This will not be easy. It will not be over quickly. The body does not like change, and it adapts slowly. |

I was sitting in work yesterday reading one of those free magazines that get sent out to us all the time. I'm not going to name it but the article which got me laughing went something like this, 'Bikini Ready in 10 Days' '12 Days to a fitter and leaner you' Drop a dress size in 20 minutes I think you get the message! God why am I writing this when I should be spending all my hard earned money on the guys selling this fantastic, wonderful amazing new fitness solution. |

I just wanted to let you all in on a little secret to achievingrealresults. Firstly, you need to set yourself a goal. Easy I know but the amount of people who don't set themselves S.M.A.R.T goals is staggering so, What are S.M.A.R.T Goals? S.M.A.R.T. is an acronym that describes the various attributes a goal should have to ensure maximum probability of success. S -Specific M -Measurable A -Achievable R -Realistic T -Timed
How Can I Set S.M.A.R.T. Goals For Fitness And Weight-Management? |

Hi all, Hope you are all having a good weekend, I've just sat down to watch the Scotland v Ireland match and wanted to write a quick post. Weight Loss and Cardio! I have seen a few people running on the treadmill in excess of 40 minutes recently. Don't get me wrong, if you are training for endurance thats fine (even though outdoor running would be better) however, doing in excess of 40 minutes is far too much to do in one go. I have proof of this, just check this out below. |

Hi all, I have moved our blog to help us keep track of it better. I have been through this once before but the penny still hasn't dropped for some. I want to talk about......................... INTENSITY LEVELS.
Picture this scene, I enter the gym and run into a guy who says to me, "I have been training now for a month and I have not seen any difference in my weight or my shape".
Oh dear I think!
I then have a20minute conversation with this guy discussing his goals and what he is actually doing when in the gym. |
