...no its not my book, but I attended a book launch in the week. A friend of mine has written a book for the Call Centre industry and I'd contributed a page, imparting my advice on how to keep staff fit and healthy whilst being stuck in their office all day.
A fit and healthy workforce will improve a business's profits as it makes them (the staff) more productive as they have more energy and less days off sick.
It was a great evening and well done Stuart from PRG Solutions for giving me the opportunity to contribute!

Whatever the weather!
The last few days have been a big reminder that its is November after all, with high winds and some very wet showers!! However its been great to see people still turning up to my outdoor fitness classes.
As someone said to me "well skin is waterproof!", what a great attitude to have. So if you any of you want to come to the all weather classes then come along and give it a go!

Long time no speak!
Hi all
Its been a while since I've blogged so apologies for this. I've been busy expanding my outdoor fitness classes, running courses and personal training business. So I'm making a promised to myself and you to keep updating this blog as frequently as possible.
I've spent much of the last few days placing flyers through letterboxes in South Bristol so if you have one of my flyers then get in touch to discuss what I can do for you. Walking around with a bag load of flyers is a pulse raising job at the best of times but chuck in dogs snarling at you from behind doors and it all adds to the fun!
The Outdoor Fitness classes will be running throughout the winter months, whatever the weather unless I deem it to be too dangerous e.g. ice, snow drifts (!) but if its rains then we carry on regardless, just make sure you wear they appropriate clothing and bring a towel.
Right I'm off to train a client.
Speak soon!

Exercise is bad for you!
...not really but I thought it would grab your attention!
In fact exercise is very good for you. You can lose weight, get fit, improve strength and muscle tone. You'll have more energy and self confidence.
However there is one drawback to exercise. It increase the production of unstable molecules called 'free radicals' that will whizz around your body causing potential harm to healthy cells.
But help is at hand...antioxidant rich foods which render the free radicals harmless. Here are some examples.

- Carrots
- Dried Apricots
Happy eating!

Music is the answer!
Music stimulates the senses. It can lift your mood and get you motivated for a night on the town or help you get through that training session.
I use my MP3 player mainly when I run long distances as it can get quite lonely plodding the streets and fields with nobody but the occasional passer by or farm animal to keep me company!
I often use music get me through the monotonous chore of housework!
Whether you're music tastes are The Chemical Brothers to Oasis, or the Beatles to Bach, get those senses activated with your favourite tunes to raise your spirits and get exercising.
Stay healthy
