STRNG fitness

If this isn't motivation, I don't know what is! 👏

These clips show Tracey's progress over the summer and just how far she's come through consistent hard work and dedication.

Tracey started training with me a couple of years ago with the goal of getting stronger, improving her body composition, and achieving her first pull-up. Fast forward to today, and she's not only achieved that goal but is continuing to build her pull-up strength and increase her reps. 💪

Today we even progressed onto weighted dips, something that would have seemed a long way off when she first started. Since combining Personal Training with the group calisthenics sessions, her strength, confidence, and skill development have gone from strength to strength.

What I admire most about Tracey is that she leads by example. She enjoys staying active with her family and shows that strength training and calisthenics isn't just for men. She's proof that with consistency, patience, and the right support, incredible progress is possible at any stage of your fitness journey.

Amazing work Tracey, you've earned every bit of it! 👏🔥

30km run - another milestone reached 🙌

Today was my longest run so far of this training block, and there’s now just one more longer run in a couple of weeks before I start to taper down.

The big 30k… which sounds pretty daunting 😂

This week’s training has been more of a struggle than usual as I’ve been recovering from a bug, and I don’t think the heat has helped anyone sleep particularly well either.

Not one to make excuses though, so we got it done regardless.

It definitely got tougher as the heat picked up, and towards the end I had to keep moving at a steady pace to stop the cramps from setting in. But I’m really happy to have run further than I ever have before and managed to maintain a good pace throughout.

It’s making me realise just how tough the challenge is going to be, but I’m looking forward to getting it done! 💪

The big day is getting closer now, so I’m also going to start pushing the fundraising a little more.

If you’d like to support me and donate to MIND, I’d really appreciate it 🙏 Every donation helps.

I never wanted to be the biggest or the fastest.

But what I did want was to be fit, strong, look jacked and be able to perform to a good level.

Because what’s the point in having the muscle car without the engine? 🚘

I want to be able to lift heavy, run a decent distance, move well and still look like I actually train.

So that I look and feel better for myself and my family.

I don't think you need to specialise in one thing to be good at training.

For me, it’s about having a good balance of strength, muscle, fitness and enjoyment.

Not being the best at any one thing, but being pretty good at all of it.

If you want to get stronger, build some muscle and feel fit again, drop me a message 📩
