I braved the great outdoors yesterday with a trip up to the Lakes. The aim was to take on Blencathra… one of Englands’ most northerly mountains. But due to some pretty wild conditions (and 60 minutes of crawling through knee deep snow!) I decided to head back. Sometimes not even I’m that stubborn. Hiking in […]
It’s easy to get caught up in the numbers when you’re trying to change your body. The weight, the inches, the clothes size. Don’t get me wrong, this stuff absolutely matters. But to reshape your body we need to shift focus. We need to reshape your habits. Most habits happen by accident The exercise and […]
Each week I get together with the DF team for a (always challenging!) workout. It’s a great way for us to spend time together, discuss training protocols and test out new exercises while working on our own fitness goals. The sessions give us a chance to train, eat together and talk nutrition. We get to […]
Lyz and I constantly review the top performers at the gym; the people who make consistent progress, and see changes in their body month after month. We break down what these people are doing differently to everyone else. And there’s a common theme. One that I want to share with you in today’s post. Along […]

How much would it mean to you to not have to hide away under clothes. To stop having to choose an outfit based on how well it conceals the parts of your body you’re ashamed of. My aim is for you to be able to feel proud of what you’ve got. And feel smug in […]
Part of my role as coach is to share what you can do to achieve the changes in your body that you’re looking for. Sure, there are certain exercises that’ll help. And cleaning up the diet’s a given. But one of the biggest pieces that will determine your level of success is around you right […]
One of the girls at the gym had been working out hard for several months. She’d been putting up her weights, increasing the intensity of her workouts and really felt like she was doing everything right and due some good results.
