I’ve got back from my Xmas holidays, seeing my family and being tired out by my little nephew and nieces over the last few days. My hearing is almost back to normal again and I’m ready to crack on.
Like many of you, I am already thinking about 2009, the year ahead and what I want [...]

What are you thinking about in 2009?
It’s a New Year Miracle!
It’s xmas eve everyone and a lot of you will be in a rush to get those last minute presents. I’m kind of disappointed that I’m all set, going into the city on xmas eve with thousands of others wrestling gifts out of other peoples hands takes a lot of sweat and tears….great workout [...]
All I want for Christmas is…..a kettlebell, medicine ball and committment
Today I went and did the last few bits of my Xmas shopping in a break and while I was in one of the bigger department stores I went through the sports department, this is my toy store!
It’s one of those sports departments that retails lots and lots of sports equipment, probably as much as [...]
Say Yes
Another blog on things all mindset again. At some point I should get back to exercise and nutrition more often but I am coming across alot of information and stories that are driven by your thoughts. It is also the time of year when many are already thinking about what 2009 will have in store [...]
I don’t want to be a belly dancer
Chances are that unless you have some part time job as a belly dancer, that you would like to lose fat around your mid-section.
Endless hours on the treadmill?
Whenever you start an exercise program for the first time and as a lot of my clients will testify, one of the comments they will make is to lose the [...]
Be, Do, Have
Following on from yesterdays advice (I hope you used it and still are ) today comes from another part of the same conversation that I was having with a business coach. She is not my coach, we had not spoken before on such things but we really shared the same views so much that [...]
Isn’t that interesting…
Speaking to an expert in the coaching business this morning I picked up on a lot of techniques and tips that are used in business coaching that are easily transferrable over to fitness and in particular the way that you prepare yourself for new things.
Problems that you face and that I might experience with clients [...]
I’m too old for this ****
One of my favourite quotes and probably well recognised for the collection of Lethal Weapon films starring Danny Glover.
Well, the last post of the day (I’m on severe catchup since my latest set of technical problems are now behind me) concentrates on the older generation who just like anyone else need to look after themselves [...]
Great stretch for low back pain!
Wanted to add a video of a friend of mine, Dave Schmitz.
I met Dave a few months back, just outside of New York and I spoke about Resistance Band Training.
RBT is not a new concept and has been used for quite a while. The likes of Reebok have their own bands that are stocked in [...]
Walking like a 90 year old?
I meet a lot of people who are inactive.
That’s just the nature of our lives these days, our jobs dictate that we are sat down for a hell of a lot of time.
At your desk, in the car.
If you are one of those people who uses exercise to bring structured activity into your lifestyle then [...]
