Is fat as bad as they say? Me thinks not!

  Believe me it was steep! well I thought so.

Another great person whose passion and knowledge for her subject is inspiring.

Her book, gut and psychology syndrome. GAPS is a must for all who are interested in nutrition and health.

October and back in action

Where does the time go? Summer and now Autumn what happened to all my plans? Well I did do most of them but the cycle and camp over night never came about. I have really enjoyed being less busy in the studio this summer, people away on holiday means I can catch up on reading and researching my favorite topics, the human body in movement and nutrition. I am about to give my first talk on Functional Training and movement in Manchester so I am looking forward to that more about that next time. Enjoy your Autumn x

Augusts is upon us and so most of my free time I try to get outside and enjoy the sun and my garden, getting as much vitamin D as I can which as you know helps our immune systems and as we don't get a lot of sun so I'm out in it as much as I can, blog permitting. 

Here below is a good radio interview with Dr Natasha Campbell-McBride on the GAPS diet have a listen and be amazed, as I was.

A functional life for always which means dont belive a word I say

 Hello to all of you out there in Functional training land, what ever that means? this is a great time of year for me and this months video blog says it all. I ask you all to question just like a child does why? Why is it that humans are getting fatter and yet most of the time eating low fat diet products. Don't just take it for written that what you are told is always the truth.

 Mavis showing us how it is done in the studio last month have a look at her with the TRX simply brilliant inspiration to us all.

Train well train smart and enjoy

 Hey its summer! The sun has been shinning and I am really enjoying my garden at the moment salad crops abound and not many slugs, strange but true only a few holes in a few leaves. My training is a bit erratic at the moment but am coming to terms with understanding what I need to do to keep my fitness level and my health at a good level. If you want to know more on whats happening here below is my brief or not so brief June update.

Above video is of body tribes I like the simple moves and the fact they look like they are having fun then

below is another body tribe clip of a warm up.

  Now this clip below just reminds me to keep my movement patterns flowing and to keep my flexibility training up along with that all important functional strength training

 What ever your age training should be fun and challenging, so with the body the brain gets a workout to. Enjoy your movement x
