Fr though, the excuses are getting booring!! 🥱🥱

Stop looking for reasons you can’t and start finding ways you can.

I’m sure other PTs and coaches can vouch for me when I say this, but genuinely we’re not expecting you to change absolutely everything all at once, nor do we want you to do the the absolute most. In actual fact we want you to be able to get results doing the bare minimum we want it to feel as easy and sustainable as possible..

I’m not here to start Monday off on a downer, but just a little bit of reality before we go into this week because not every week is productive, positive or “instagram worthy”

So don’t go comparing your week to what you see on here it’s not real if remember 🌸🌸

We all like to share the best moments of our lives on here and we get so carried away comparing our ‘lives’ to everyone else’s. So here’s 10 real things and thoughts I’ve struggled with the last few weeks.

Fr though fat loss just isn’t that confusing.

At the end of the day your physique is a reflection of your consistent habits 🤷🏼‍♀️

So chic 💁🏼‍♀️💁🏼‍♀️

It’s coming up to 10 years since I got my first gym membership which is actually crazy!!

I started off PETRIFIED of the gym floor. I’d pretty much only do classes or hide in the studio when it was empty so no one could see me.

When I moved to uni I got a bit braver, started actually using the gym, tried CrossFit and eventually qualified as a PT. But even then, I still didn’t feel like I 100% knew what I was doing.

It wasn’t until I hired my own coach that things really started to click. I learnt how to actually train hard, progressively overload, structure my training and eat to support my goals.

Since then I’ve trained to build a physique im confident with, I’ve spent time building muscle, competed in bodybuilding shows and experienced the much more extreme end of physique development too.

I think after all of it I’ve landed somewhere in the middle.
I care A LOT about my training and my physique, but I also really fu***ng like my life outside of the gym. Dinner, travelling, drinks with my friends, nice food and doing things because they’re fun.

I don’t think you have to choose between the two.
But I also don’t believe “balance” means doing whatever you want and expecting serious results. Sometimes you have to diet, say no, train when you can’t be arsed and make choices that support your goal. The important bit is learning that it DOESN’T HAVE YO BE ALL OR NOTHING
Train fu***ng hard, eat for your goals and understand WHY you’re doing it.

Most importantly, it’s important to learn how to make it all work alongside actually living your life.

That’s what I want Coached by Jess to be about🫶🏻

Have I reached the age where I start entering marathons 🫣🫣

Weekly round up 💛

Slightly different week this week, no training until the end of the week as I’ve been trying to get back into some sort of routine post New York. As you can probably tell… we fully enjoyed the trip, lots of food, drinks and just living life which was exactly what I needed.

That said, by the end of the week I was definitely ready to get back into the gym and back into some structure.
