The One Guarantee With Exercise

I used to see 600 people a year on a GP referral scheme I ran in South Wales. We linked up with many local doctors, hopsitals, physios and surgeries and the GP/Nurse/Physio would refer anyone on to us who they felt they would improve by carrying out a period of exercise. I did it for over 6 years, so I saw a fair few people, it was a very busy and popular scheme. We used to put people through a 12 week programme of exercise.

20 Common Workout Mistakes & Solutions

The last few weeks I have been really getting into and writing about the nutritional sides of things. There is so much to be said about nutrition and all of the new research and discoveries that have been made in the field; it is an exciting and scary time. But I am going back to exercise this week. Firstly I want to say I'm not here to judge anyone. I have made all these mistakes myself at some point; lets say these are just observations.

The Single Best Exercise You Can Do

The title of ‘Number One Exercise’ is a pretty big one but hopefully after reading this article you will only be able to agree with me. There are thousands of exercises you can do to give you great results but in my experience this exercise yields the BEST results. This exercise is the good old SQUAT. There are many different squat variations you can do (I will discuss a few of them later) but on the whole the benefits you can get from squatting are massive. What’s so good about the squat?

Going Organic, Is It Worth The Bother

My parents told me, once upon a time all food was naturally organic, then “they” (the 'evil' food companies) started using pesticides and preservatives and they said “you can eat fruit all year round” and “this stuff is better because it lasts longer”, and charged us more for it. Now they take the pesticides and preservatives away and call it organic, and you guessed, charge us more for it! Okay firstly what does organic actually mean?

So this article is all about your abdominals and how to get them flatter – easier!

Fat Doesn’t Make You Fat – This Does

Fat doesn’t make you Fat? Many people believe that the best way to lose fat is simply by cutting out fats from their diets. They have visions of the fat in their food clogging up their arteries. Most diet enthusiasts or people trying to eat healthy will look at the back of a packet see a high fat content and put it straight back on the shelf. I have heard people say “as long as its 3% fat or less I can have it”. They become blind to the fact that we need fats in our diet and are only conce ed in avoiding anything high in fat. Big mistake. Your brain is over 60% fat.

Top 10 Tips to Beat “Winter Blues”

So the cold weather has arrived a tad early and it has left many people wanting to “hibe ate” through until spring. Get the shopping in, close the door, put the TV on and don’t leave the house all day, sound familiar? In the UK at this time of year, the amount of daylight we get is less than half of what we get in July, 8 hours per day in December compared to 16.5 hours per day in July. Due to this, many people in the UK suffer from a vitami D deficiency. So do you just accept it as the way it is or do you do something about it?

Waiting to Get Your Ducks in a Row?

Quite a strange name for an article title a few of you may be thinking? For those of you that don’t know ‘Getting your ducks in a row’ basically means when someone wants to get all of the small details right – before proceeding with a new project, such as losing some weight. I think this rule is often used with regards to exercise and nutrition. Is it a good strategy? I think NOT. Many people fail in their attempts to start eating healthy and exercising because they wait until their ducks are all in a row. They are waiting for the right time to join the gym.

Some Tips For Fast Weight Loss

1. Cut out soft drinks. They are useless calories. If you have to have a fizzy drink then mix fizzy water and squash or juice. The removal of soft drinks alone has been credited as removing the insulin-related belly fat of many a dieter. 2. Stop eating processed foods. Processed foods have so many additives, sugars, and other unnecessary and unhealthy ingredients that it really isn’t a worthwhile addition to the diet.

Is The Link Between Fish Oil & Cancer Genuine?

He Has Boobs Bigger Than His Wife

The title of this week’s article may be a bit funny, but it is 100% true for at least one poor chap, and I’m sure there are many others just like him. It’s a male orientated article, but wives, mothers and girlfriends out there who know someone in their family suffering from this, should share this information around. A gentleman recently contacted me with a very personal question. Lucky for me he has a sense of humour, and with his permission, here it is… “Dear Richard,

Obese Babies, Rats & 6 Foods You Should Eat Every Day

As you are all aware nutrition is absolutely vital to your health. I have found many people struggle with the nutritional side of things more than the exercise, in truth it is a bigger commitment as you have to be constantly making correct decisions to ensure you get the results, you eat around 25-35 meals a week, where as with exercise you only need to be training 3-5 times a week. So today I am going to discuss the foods that we eat.

Acid & Alkaline

Do you all remember back in school (could be taking some of you back a while here) in chemistry experimenting with those ph strips made of litmus paper? We used these to determine whether a substance was acidic or alkaline. 1-6 = acidic, 7-13 = alkaline. We are also able to find out whether our body is more acidic than alkaline simply by placing your tongue on a ph strip. Ideally you would like to be 7.24 alkaline. What is the difference between being acidic and alkaline?

A Great Way to Finish Your Workout

Being a personal trainer I pride myself in being able to plan as challenging a session as possible for all of my clients. Often my sessions are limited to an hour or sometimes even less, this is when I need to ensure that every last detail is correct so my clients can get the full benefits from the session. I don’t know if you are the same but I feel unfulfilled if I leave the gym after my session without breaking a full sweat! It may hurt at the time but finishing your session gasping for air gives me an enormous sense of achievement (a bit later on).

Nutritional and Dieting Advice - 3 Weight Loss Tips!

Translated, not only is the mantra “a calorie is a calorie” proven to be false, but “all fats are created equal,” and “a protein is protein” are also incorrect. For example, we now know different: • Fats (e.g. fish oils vs. saturated fats) have vastly different effects on metabolism and health in general; we now know different • Carbohydrates have their own effects (e.g. high GI vs. low GI), and that different proteins can also have unique effects.

How To Get More Active

One of my clients showed me an online article the other week. This particular article was about a piece of research about British people. It said that we are the worst in the Western world for inactivity and lack of exercise. Worse than the Americans. Not exercising is now deemed more dangerous than smoking. The research suggests that 1 in every 6 people who die In the UK, die because they do no exercise whatsoever.

How Much Can You Really Improve in a Short Workout?

We live in a fast paced world where time is precious. Being a personal trainer I can fully relate to not having much time. I do hear a lot though that people ‘don’t have time to exercise’. I agree that some people don’t have as much time as others but I would disagree in most cases that people don’t have time. Short intense workouts are becoming all the rage in today’s society, they take limited time and if done properly can really give you a good workout.

Doctor Says There Is Way Too Much Focus On The Fat Content Of Foods

There was an interesting article I read recently online titled: Saturated Fat Heart Disease ‘Myth’. It is great to see the truth about saturated fat finally making the news. If you have read some of my previous articles you might know that I am a big advocate of eating all types of natural fats even though they are demonised by food companies as being the cause of all sorts of problems, especially saturated fats. Just to remind you saturated fats come from foods such as butter, steak, eggs, bacon, sausage, nuts, coconut oil, fish oil, chocolate, cream and cheese.

Is Exercise Always The Best Option?

Today I wanted to share a little story with you about exercise and how it may not always be the best option. My wife said to me the other day that she can't keep on going to her regular bootcamp sessions as she is going to put weight on due to her poor diet and drinking. When she said this I smiled and thought to myself – wow she really gets it. I have tried teaching her stuff over the years but never knew if it was sinking in. By this statement I knew it had.

4 Simple Steps to Get Your Healthy Eating Back On Track

We’ve all been there, pigging out at the weekend, had a stressful day in work come home and ordered a curry, this is life I’m afraid. As a personal trainer I’m not ashamed to say that I’ve been there myself. Many people train and train, they improve their fitness but the reason that their results aren’t as impressive as they should be is down to their nutrition programme. Often the toughest part of a healthy life is choosing the foods you eat, you only need to dedicate about 5 hours a week to training whereas you need to commit to eating well 24/7!

Is Going Organic Really Worth It?

As a personal trainer and nutritional expert, personally I would say that going organic is definitely worth it. Yes, it does cost quite a bit more but you are making an investment in the future. What do I mean? Well by buying organic food you are getting more benefits that a nicer tasting meal, by making a stand against processed food and purchasing organic food you are saying no to the chemicals, hormones and toxins which are being pumped into our meat, eggs, fruit and vegetables. You are showing that you actually care about what you are putting into your body on a day to day basis.

The Many Benefits Of Sports Massage

Today sportsmen and women push themselves to the extreme limits of their physical capabilities and place massive amounts of strain on their bodies, at a professional level as well as the normal public like you who attend boot camp and work your ass off in the gym. These strains and stresses result in muscular and connective tissue problems, of varying severity, which can be alleviated through massage. Sports massage is usually briefer in duration and more vigorous than a general full-body massage focusing as it does on the particular muscles relevant to your athletics activity.

Pros & Cons Of Vegetarianism

Vegetarianism is defined as “the practice of abstaining from the consumption of meat – red meat, poultry, seafood and the flesh of any other animal”. (1) In my experience ‘going veggie’ can be a double edged sword. It can lead to massive health benefits – when its done properly. I have vegetarian meals and entire vegetable days myself and they help me enormously. The biggest benefits from a plant based diet are: Raw food is good for you because of the enzymes and we need to eat more raw food than cooked.

Low Fat Vs Low Carb Diet

First came low fat then came low carb. But which one is better? I saw a programme the other night on the TV comparing an extreme high fat diet to an extreme high carb diet. They used two doctors who were actually twins, in the experiment which lasted a month. The results may surprise a few people. One thing that would certainly surprise most people is that both doctors had no idea what the effects of the diets were going to be. To quote one of them:r

She Hated Exercise

I took on a new personal training client earlier in the summer, and she point blank told me that she “hated exercise, and everything to do with it!” She said she had slogged away in the gym for years, up to 90 minutes, three times a week and hated every minute of it, and seeing very little by the way of results. (She was about to sign up to one of my 6 month coaching programmes, so was very relieved when I told her that exercise is the smallest component of the programme and we would be doing just 60 minutes per week. Find out how she got on below)
