When you make the decision to start a new fitness programme, one of the first questions you should ask is how are you going to measure your progress? Doing this will make it easier to achieve your overall goal.
How will you measure your progress?
Running a marathon: Are you ready for the challenge?
After yet another year of watching the London Marathon on the TV, you've decided to enter; but how do you know if you're really ready?
Fasted cardio for weight loss: Is it really superior?
When it comes to losing weight, fasted cardio is a popular method, but does it work and is it actually superior to exercising after a meal?
Are you overtraining? Why rest is key to progress
Training may act as the stimulant to growth and development, but sleep is when the adaptions actually take place. But what counts as adequate rest?
Demotivated? How to deal with your fitness demons
It's 6pm: you've finished work for the day and are looking forward to hitting the gym. You've been working hard and the results are paying off. Yet, despite all this, the second you set foot outside, your motivation starts to wane. Sat at your desk- eyes glued to an Excel spreadsheet - the gym had seemed like a welcome break, but now, when the alternative is a warm house, the sofa and a slice of carrot cake, getting sweaty suddenly doesn't seem the best option. So, is there anything you can do to tackle your demotivating inner voice?
