    If your doctor says you need to loose weight to stay healthy but you choose not to, then that is a need and not a want. You need to want to do something for it to become a need.

    Avoidance and how it effects you

    Play Episode Listen Later May 28, 2021 4:59


    We'll all avoid something at some point in our lives.... In terms of fitness and training, I'll often get a client that a beer or ate something they shouldn't have and then they'll avoid me for a day or 2 especially when it's time ti weigh in. Your not a bad person or did anything terrible, but you do need accountability.

    Countability during these tough times in Lockdown

    We are struggling during these (Lockdown) times we are going through. We still wake up, brush our teeth and get the day going because we have to. We might need to work late and we know we don't have to but we still do because we want to (or can).

    Intermittent Fasting

    Intermittent fasting is an eating pattern where you cycle between periods of eating and fasting. It does not say anything about which foods to eat, but rather when you should eat them. There are several different intermittent fasting methods, all of which split the day or week into eating periods and fasting periods.

    This one if for the ladies.

    Coping Mechanisms

    We all have stresses - it's normal. If something is stressing you out but not me, that doesn't mean that it's not relevant. Our stresses effect all of us differently, and never play down some else's stress because you don't know how it's effecting them in whichever way or form.

    Setting yourself up for the win!

    Like the old saying goes, "If you fail to prepare, prepare to fail." We all have strength and weaknesses which means you need to have more self awareness. For instance, if you make bad food choices, then you have to address your diet and not set yourself up to fail. If you go home and there's no food set up, you haven't eaten during the day, no healthy snacks etc, when you get home and open the fridge and there's only bad food options, then you'll carry on eaten those foods because, 1 - your starving and 2 - those are the only options available. Start with smaller goals and work your way up, otherwise you could be setting yourself up for failure.

    Non exercise calories - what do I burn when

    Play Episode Listen Later May 14, 2021 4:51


    Non exercise activity still burns calories. Yes, you still burn calories even though you aren't exercising - if you have an active job, you burn calories, walking around during the day, you burn calories... Even a walk to the bathroom during the day is burning calories. This is the basic base of non exercise calorie burning.
