Eating food you wouldn’t usually eat, in quantities you hardly remember eating, in the evenings seems a huge issue for so many of us.

We easily justify eating calories equal to a generous meal, after only just eating our dinner.

I’ve written about it fairly often, and there are still more aspects to evening overeating that we can talk about.

I do think it can be fixed. One of the many factors I’ve written about before is likely to […]

Try my new quiz!

I don’t think losing weight, improving fitness and getting in shape should be viewed as a one-size-fits-all.

We’re all individuals, and we all have our own views of what’s easy and what’s not.

When it comes to eating well and exercising, we’ve got some aspects totally sussed and other things which would serve us well to work on.

And then, of course, there’s your […]

Why You Shouldn’t Be Hesitant To Improve Strength or Gain Muscle

When I use the phrase ‘improving strength’ or ‘gaining a little muscle’ while explaining the best way to prime our bodies to burn fat, there’s often something of a hesitation.

Often, strength and muscle are linked inside your mind with body builder style muscles and bulking up.

But, gaining strength doesn’t have to be about lifting heavily loaded bars or huge dumbbells; you can also build strength by practicing and perfecting a whole variety of exercises, and by adjusting variables […]

Nutrition May Be Complicated – But Eating Well Is Not.

The science of nutrition might be pretty complicated, but eating food is not.

Just eat real food.

Eat protein – at least 1g per kilo of your bodyweight every day.

Eat veggies – pretty much as many as you can cram in, of as many different types as you can manage.

Eat a portion of carbohydrates every day, especially if you’re active.

Allow most of your fat intake to come from whole food sources which also fit into another category.

Drink plenty of water.

Keep foods which don’t fall into any of the above categories (like processed food or alcohol […]

As you know, these email newsletters I send are written with the intention of giving you skills and information you can use to make real changes to your nutrition, fitness and health.

With this in mind, I’d like to know what you’re finding hard with respect to nutrition and exercise at the minute.

What can I send over the coming weeks which you would find helpful? 

Small things, big things – it doesn’t matter […]

Are You Struggling To Make A Start?

All the information you need to make the changes you want to make to your body, fitness and nutrition is already available for free.

It is not a lack of knowledge that prevents us from getting off the starting line and making changes.

The trouble is that the massive amount of information available is often contradictory and so leaves us feeling unsure, confused and overwhelmed. The confused mind often chooses not to make any changes and instead to simply stay with what is comfortable and familiar. If we do manage to make some changes, we often don’t give them […]

I’ve recorded this email as a video as well. You can find it on Facebook or Instagram.

Alwyn Cosgrove posted the most fantastic thing the other day on Facebook, likening a roll of kitchen roll to fat loss. I thought it was fabulously visual and made the point that just because fat loss might seem slow at times, it’s the fact that you’ve stayed the course which means the results add up over time.

It goes like this:

Take two rolls of kitchen roll, each with 100 sheets. Keep one aside as your ‘before’ picture. Use the […]

On Eating Food You Didn’t Really Want To Eat

We’ve all been there. For whatever reason, some kind of off-track food catches your eye and you can think of nothing else until you’ve eaten it. It might not even be something you especially love, but still – we all know it’s only a matter of time before it has been eaten.

Then, the usual course of action follows: shame and guilt followed by laying out a new (probably stricter) set of rules that you should live by. Which […]

I’ve recorded this email as a video as well. You can find it on Facebook or Instagram.

For some reason, exercise seems to be put into a different category than many other things in life and we expect every workout to be a good one. We think that if we are working out regularly, we should be better every time. And if we are not better then often we decide that it is ‘obviously not working’ and that we should just quit.

But the truth we have to accept is that some days (or even weeks) you’re not […]

Try putting these three simple ideas into place, and notice the changes you can make to your body with relatively little effort – or pain!

Make your goal to eat at least 1g protein per kg body weight, every day.
This simple act will boost your satiety, and help reduce cravings.
When you start to actually count your protein intake, you’ll realise that it’s quite a lot to get through in a day – it will leave you very little […]
