Fit, Fab and Fortysomething podcast

A bit of an outline of my fitness journey (so far).

I take a look at how I got started, what types of programs I've done along the way, the coaches I've had and how I've dealt with challenges.

There's nothing particularly outstanding about my fitness journey, but I show up every day, I'm consistent and I really genuinely enjoy being active,, going to the gym and running.

In this episode I chat to Accredited Practicing Dietician Jono Steedman all about Metabolism.

We find out whether the middle-age bulge is really due to our metabolism slowing as we age, or something else.

Also, the books we discussed in this episode were:

Your Best Life by Domonique Bertolucci & 

Atomic Habits by James Clear.

I delve into some of the tips, tricks and strategies you can use to sleep better, then discuss my own sleep routine.

I used to really struggle with sleep.  I would be so tired, yet when it came to hopping into bed, I would lay there in the dark, wide awake and my mind racing at a million miles and hour.  When I did finally nod off, my sleep was disrupted and I would toss and turn.

I have spent a lot of time reading about sleep habits and ways to improv sleep, so I wanted to share these tips with you.
