This week, I am switching my attention to you runners who have entered a spring marathon or half marathon.

If you have been organised and entered a race then the chances are you are already running regularly so my advice won’t come as too much of a shock! If, however, you’ve entered a race and not started training yet then make sure you watch the video to find out what prep to do between now and the new year.

Just click on the video above to find out how to prepare for your spring race goals and also feel free to contact me with any specific training questions.

It’s officially Christmas party season, and if you’re anything like me you’ll be eating & drinking more than usual but still really want to fit in your favourite outfits, yes?

Over the past couple of weeks, I have been talking about how to lose half a stone before Christmas (and YES it is still possible if you start today!)

Just click here to get my Guilt Free Christmas action plan

If you were super keen and started when I gave you the original plan then you should be in week 3 by now and hopefully have already lost 3-5 pounds?!

Well done if you have already seen some progress – the main thing is to keep doing the same actions that have got you the success so far and you WILL continue to be successful!

If you haven’t seen any progress as yet then don’t become disheartened. Let’s look at how you can make some small changes that will make a big difference.

Firstly, are you clear on what your goal is and WHY you want to achieve it? Do you need to write this down and remind yourself WHY you are doing this in the first place? Is it to help you feel more confident? Do you have an outfit you want fit in? Is it for health reasons? Let’s get clear on WHY…

Secondly, are you prioritising your goal? Are you making time to achieve your goal? Do you need to plan your diary better so you have time to exercise/meal prep? We all have the same amount of hours in a week – you just need to prioritise YOU…

And thirdly, are you thinking positively and believing in yourself? Are you setting realistic expectations of yourself? Are you giving yourself credit for the effort you have put in so far even if you haven’t given it 100% (as yet)? If you think positive thoughts, you’ll make positive choices and you’ll get positive results.

Let’s make this week YOUR week!

Following on on from last week’s blog about exercising indoors, I’ve put together a workout that you can do at home if the weather is bad, you haven’t got time to go to the gym or you just fancy a change.

The workout is suitable for beginner level upwards and will help with fitness, calorie burning & toning. You don’t need any equipment but I’ve offered some suggestions in brackets for adding weights and how you can make the workout more challenging!

Here you go!…

Warm up: 3 minute walk or jog on the spot (or up & down stairs)

Circuit: 30 seconds each exercise

with 30 seconds of walking/jogging on the spot (or burpees)

1) squats (add a shoulder press with weights)

2) side lunges (add bicep curls with dumbells)

3) press ups (full – hands & toes)

4) abdominal crunches (half sit ups)

5) core twist (lift your feet up & use a weight)

Repeat circuit 3-5 times

Cool down: Quad & hamstring stretches

Give it go and don’t forget to get in touch if you need any extra advice, support or motivation from me.

I currently have 2 spaces for Home Personal Training if you need an extra push this winter too!
