Nutrition Tip

Consuming protein within 2 hours of a workout is the best way to aid recovery. It provides the body with amino acids and branch chain proteins, allowing the muscle to repair and build. Nutrition is half the battle - get that right and your training will improve tenfold!

Workout Of The Week

400m run - 30 crunches - 20 press ups - 10 pull ups - repeat 4 times (adjust speed and difficulty relative to your fitness level)

Training Tip

Cardiovascular exercise on its own is not the best way to burn fat/lose weight.....Weight training actively speeds up the metabolic rate of the body, therefore making the cardio work more effective helping to kick start that fat loss!

Workout Of The Week

6 x upright rows


6 x shoulder press

6 x clean and press

6 x squats

6 x bent over rows

...

Use the same weight for all movements with no rest between exercises.

Repeat this complete set 6 times, resting for 1 minute between each set.
