The CBM effect

In todays episode I am joined by my first guest on the podcast: Team CBMs own Lesley who has been coaching with me for the last 18 months.

Having previously tried slimming world and converted over we discuss the journey and how much more progression and enjoyment she has been able to have since making the change. We delve into topics like scale weight, change in nutritional behaviours and developing a love for exercise and strength training.

I hope this episode can show the benefit of what developing a long term coaching relationship can do and how it can help you enjoy your journey that bit more with less guilt, and if you are struggling in making the change from slimming world this one is not to be missed!

In this episode I break down how the menstrual cycle works and the impact it can have on the body and progress including things like: scale weight, body composition, strength, digestion, hunger and body temperature.

All these things are completely normal and can help mitigate stress by knowing its not anything you are doing wrong but simply where you are at within the cycle.

Whether you are a female, a partner or an up and coming coach looking to improve your knowledge around the subject there are some takeaways for everyone here to help increase your understanding.

Enjoy!

Today I dive into the last 8 years and explore things I did well, things that could have gone better and what I would have changed looking back.

It took me a long time to get things right, a lot of trial and error, a lot of mistakes but it made me into the coach and athlete you see today.

Hope you enjoy some of these shared insights!

In todays episode I go into some detail about the different workout splits and which one may be of benefit to you, the factors involved to look out for and when it may be time to pick a new one. 

I also explore factors that go beyond the simple choice such as volume, the ability to recover and using the split to improve lagging body parts.

Hopefully you enjoy and any feedback as always is much appreciated!
