In todays Thursday Training show I’m sharing a few of the tricks I use to get myself to push on through a workout when maybe it’s the end of the week and to be honest: The Thought Of Training Is Sounding A Little Struggle-Street! Generally I LOVE to train. I feel grateful that I can. I focus on the results. I see it as ... READ MORE

You’ll have heard before that small hinges swing big doors? This couldn’t be more true in the body gain game. However I believe equally small – what’s the antonym to hinge?? – I couldn’t find one so I’ll go with rhyme instead (!)… I believe small whinges slam shut big doors! It’s the little daily adversities you don’t overcome that add up to big NON-results. The seemingly insignificant things ... READ MORE

I always get a little nervous when a client proudly declares: “I’m giving up chocolate for a month!” Or “That’s it I’m off the booze till my birthday!” Not because I think a life without chocolate or booze is not worth living – in fact I really don’t rate chocolate… more so because, for sustainability in the fat loss and body gain game I believe there ...

When I was 18 I decided I wanted a tongue piercing.  At the time I was living with my 4 best friends in our inner city flat unaffectionately known as the cest-pit. I only saw mum and dad about once a week. However for some reason rather than just going and getting it done (like I did with my belly button piercing) I ... READ MORE

When I first joined a gym over 18 years ago I didn’t have a goal. I joined because my father said I should. “But dad, I’m not fat” “Katie, that’s why it’s such a shame, you have so much wasted potential” (in hindsight, perhaps dad was looking for an alternative to the regular all-nighters at clubs and the ‘wasted’ mornings ...

I have a funny story to share before we get into today’s awesome full body fat blasting routine. Now my client I designed this program for HATES cardio – with a passion – she just won’t do it. I understand that – cardio can be pretty hateful – so I sneak little bursts of timed exercises into her weights routines to get her ... READ MORE

The question that inspired todays show jolted me right out of my delightful-day-dreaming while making meals on mass the other day. I have Dave Logan to thank. This was his parting advice shared on episode 863 of Entrepreneur on Fire… I’m curious to know if it resonates with YOU as it does with me? To quote Dave: There was a deal that your made with yourself ... READ MORE

Do you have a favourite food? Something you “could NEVER” give up? Mine was meat. More specifically steak… oh, and chicken… and roast rack of lamb… Although lessor quality meat pies and batter covered hot dogs were pretty good too. And my mums lamb burgers…. and veal schnitzel. I used to say “I could never be vegetarian.” Until I changed my mind completely. It was probably a ... READ MORE

I know a very dear family friend – he’s around my dads age – who has been very over weight most of his adult life. When my mum informed me a couple of years ago that his latest strategy in weight loss was to go VEGO I was shocked. It’s a tough way to lose fat. Now this is a gent who ... READ MORE
