The smile says it all 🥹🤍

I worked hard for the physique I brought to my photoshoot back in May, and I was so proud of what I achieved.

But here’s the bit we don’t talk about enough…

Getting lean is one phase. Staying there all year round isn’t the goal.

I’m now on maintenance calories, pulling back on cardio and putting my energy into training hard, getting stronger and building on the physique I want to bring next year.

And I’m not doing it alone.

Around five of my clients are heading into exactly the same phase over the autumn/winter months. They’ve done the dieting, they’ve got lean, and now we’re switching the focus from losing to building.

In fact, this is what I strive to get all of my clients towards — a place where we’re no longer constantly chasing a calorie deficit, but fuelling properly, getting stronger and actually building their physique.

Because the goal was never just to eat less, weigh less and stay as lean as possible.

I want a body that’s fuelled. I want to lift heavy. I want to get stronger. I want muscle, shape and a physique that’s been BUILT — not just dieted down.

And that’s exactly what I want for my girls too.

There’s a time to lose body fat. But there’s also a time to stop chasing smaller and start seeing just how strong you can become. 🤍

Different seasons. Different goals. Same consistency.

When you’ve practically halved in size… Vicki Symons

Vicki has gone from 143kg (22st 8lb) to 83.5kg (13st 2lb) — almost 60kg down 🙀, but the part I’m most proud of isn’t just the number on the scales.

She’s become strong. Consistent. And someone who genuinely loves training.

Vicki once looked at the “gym girls” on Instagram and never imagined she could be one of them.

Yet here she is. She IS one of them. 🥹

And this hasn’t required Vicki to become a different person or put her life on hold. She has a great social life, she goes out regularly, she enjoys her food and she certainly doesn’t “eat clean” 24/7.

She’s simply become bloody good at balance and consistency.

Because you don’t need to be perfect to get incredible results. You need to do the right things often enough, for long enough.

We’re not just chasing smaller either. Strong as well as lean, always. Because skinny can be bought these days — strength is earned. 💪🏼

So bloody proud of you, Vicki. And we’re not even remotely finished yet 👏🏻

The gorgeous bride-to-be 💍🤍 Kirsty

When Kirsty joined me at the start of the year, she was already fit and lean — she just wanted to take things to the next level.

Fast forward to now… we’ve dialled in her nutrition, got a solid training plan in place and focused heavily on getting stronger and building shape.

And LOOK at the difference. 🔥

Kirsty works incredibly hard, she’s consistent, she lifts heavy, and with her wedding just 2 weeks away, these results are so well deserved.

This is exactly why I’ll forever encourage women to strength train. It’s not just about getting smaller — it’s about building shape, definition and strength.

In a world obsessed with being skinny, be obsessed with getting strong.

Girls, WALK don’t run to M&S

This dark chocolate with the mint running through it is INSANE 🌱

I’m not usually a dark chocolate girl, but Anne Anne Lettice bought me this yesterday - Thankyou SM and honestly, it’s so good along with the fruity one.

The 85% is such a good way to get some healthy fats and antioxidants in while still getting a chocolate fix as I’m a very sweet toothed girl 🍫

Definitely give this a try and let me know what you think.

Two squares a day, sorted 👌🏼

Client Nikki’s steak kebabs for dinner 🤌🏻🤌🏻

Low calorie, high protein, and plenty of fibre — but most importantly, filling and actually tasty 🤤.

Nikki’s pushing hard with training and nutrition for her upcoming holiday and this is exactly the kind of food we love to see 😍. You absolutely do not need to live on boring meals just because you’re in a calorie deficit 🙌

Keep tagging me in your food posts, girls — I love stealing your ideas 😂🖤 Nikki Jefferson

My running client Carol Ann after completing the Killin 10K at the weekend 🏃‍♀️👏

Absolutely buzzing with her run — the most beautiful race she’s ever done… hills and all ⛰️.

Carol Ann puts so much into her running, but she also knows the importance of getting her strength work in alongside those miles.

Strong legs, a strong core and better stability all matter when you’re asking your body to perform and keep progressing with your running.

She’s forever trying to get me on the running bandwagon 😂 but I have so much respect for the work she puts in, especially fitting it all around night shifts.

Well done, Carol Ann ❤️ Another one smashed!

Now onto that half 🏃‍♀️ 😉 Carol-Anne Bird

A little client feedback 🤍

I’ve always wanted my clients to get more from PT than just a good workout.

Yes, we lift heavy and work hard (with the odd therapy session thrown in 😂), but there’s so much more to it than that.

Learning about nutrition, understanding your training, building better habits and knowing how to actually make it all work around real life.

Most of my clients are super busy mums juggling work life, family life & gym all at the same time 🤪.

The goal is never just to train you — it’s to educate you too. Knowledge is power 💪🏼🤍 JD GYMS

Want to eat steak & cake on your birthday and still look like THIS Kim Walker 🫢🍰

Well… you’ve gotta lift, ladies. 🏋🏼‍♀️😂

Kim has spent time with me through both dieting phases AND maintenance phases — because the goal was never just to get smaller.

We wanted to build muscle, change her shape and create have a life which allows balance with food & drink 🥂🎂🍫

And this message is SO important for my already-lean ladies 👇🏼

Once you’ve lost the majority of the body fat you want to lose, endlessly dieting and adding more and more cardio isn’t going to build the shape you’re looking for.

At some point, you need to fuel your body, train hard and give yourself time to build muscle.

Muscle is metabolically active tissue, so it requires energy even at rest — but more importantly, building it changes your shape, improves strength and allows you to move away from constantly chasing a lower number on the scales.

Kim lifted.
Kim built muscle.
Kim ate at maintenance.
Kim also had her dieting phases.

And Kim still had the steak & cake birthday weekend. 🥩🎂😂

Get lifting heavy ladies. If you need a hand then hit me up this is what I specialise in 💪🏼🤍
