What does feeling in tune with your own body look like, and how can we find ways to help our own understanding of how to get there. Don’t forget to share, like and subscribe!

How we see, feel and think about ourselves matters. But how often do we check in with our actions and intentions? Explore this week’s episode where Sacha and Jess discuss everything from Susan Boyle’s first audition to the feeling of belonging in your workout class.

Fitness magazines or content as a whole can be confusing. “Do this, but don’t do that.” So this week Sacha & Jess dive deep into Women’s Health magazine and call out, offer our take on, and dissect some of the content. If you’re enjoying this pod, please head over to socials and let us know what you think by sharing the wealth. Spreading the word helps the pod grow, big love!

Find yourself feeling counterproductive if you’re not always working towards something? How about like there’s not enough hours in the day to do what you want to do? We feel you. In fact it’s a pretty common feeling as we delve deeper on today’s pod. Expect a new jingle and a segment where we highlight the fitness BS we’ve seen this week and question “are we still here?”

A lot of people want to “get strong” but few know where to start. Like anything with your fitness, there are systems to help you grow. Sacha and Jess cover why progressions in the strength are important but also how you might go about to your own differently.

Training for a 5k, 10k, or even a marathon – is a lot harder than you think. On this episode we talk about how important setting intentions are when it comes to goals that are going to be a little more challenging. Jess takes us through her experience training a lot differently for the Manchester Marathon this Sunday, and Sacha goes through her why’s behind Jess’s programming, and why, when training for an event, some sacrifices are needed.

Is your own expectation of what you can achieve holding you back? Whether that’s putting too much pressure on, or in some instances too little? In this pod, Sacha and Jess explore some of the caveats, what that means for overall health, and how you can start to action in your own life too.

This week Sacha and Jess put it to the vote. Would you still exercise if it had no impact on weight or aesthetics? Would you still do what you do with your health and fitness if you could tell no one about it? Let us know your thoughts on this weeks pod!

Skipping breakfast, over-consuming caffeine, rushing your workouts might all be poor habits and behaviours you’ve picked up over time. You might notice you’re doing some of these, or you also might not. The importance of being aware of what we’re doing day-to-day matters for your health. Being quick to address what you view as the little things, might actually be the big things if you give them a chance. P.s don’t forget to share and tag us in your stories. Yeah, we’re looking at you.
