-Better Not Perfect-
Warning: If you are looking to run a marathon, compete in Hyrox or get an ‘instagram body’ this isn’t for you.
30 minute workouts have been proven to be as effective for long term weight loss and building muscle, if not more so, than 60 minute sessions.
Why 30-Minute Workouts Get Results:
Consistency: Lack of time is the most common barrier to regular exercise. Shorter sessions make it much easier to show up consistantly when work or family life get busy. Get in, do your half hour, go do the rest of your life. Repeat the next week. Then the next. Consistency gets results.
Cheaper: Cost is the second reason people give. Why pay someone to watch you on a stationary bike or a treadmill? Or to stand next to you while you are resting for large periods of the session as training at intensity for 60 minutes is near impossible? If you can get the results in both half the time and cost, why spend more?
Efficiency: We only do what works, no fuff that looks good on social media. We focus on high return compound movements like squats, deadlifts, lunges, chest press etc. The big moves that get results. No bicep curls or calf raises here.
Along with training, we will look at nutrition.
Diets don't work. You have probably tried loads. You are probably proof that they don't work if you are reading this. Nutrition is actually very simple: Eat a bit better than you are just now (for example, drink some more water, add a bit of fruit etc), you will lose some weight. If you then want to lose more, we will get you eating 'a bit better' again. Better not perfect. When you are where you want to be, stick to eating like that. It really is that simple.
Getting in shape isn’t about doing more, it’s about doing what works and fitting it within your busy life. Do the simple stuff, long enough, you'll get results.
Two gym sessions per week, one to one, with me, consisting of a quick warmup, kettlebells, battleropes, sandbags and some old school weight lifting moves, followed by a quick stretch to cool down and that’s you, ready to crack on with the rest of your day.
Nothing fancy, no gimmicks. Very simple but effective training. I train my clients the way I train myself, doing the exercises that get results. Like these folk below did:
-Me at 28 and at 49-
-Graeme, same outfit, 6 months apart-
Wilma: Down 2 dress sizes
Ant, down 7.5 stones
Julie: Down 2 stones
Ben: Lost stone and a half
Margaret: Down 3 stone & 20 inches
As I say, you won't get ripped, be on the front cover of Mens\Womens Health, or be able to compete in Triathlons by training twice a week for 30 minutes and eating a bit more fruit and veg. 30 Minute Fitness is all about getting 'better not perfect'. You will drop a couple of dress sizes/belt notches, feel better about yourself, be able to wear more of the clothes you love and get back some of your old energy.
To make all this even simpler, save me waffling on any longer here and get all the necessary exercise and nutrition info in one place I have written it as a little book:
Just 75 pages. Perfect toilet read. No jargon, no fluff, no bullshit. Just what I have found to work best, based on proper scientific research, not 'gym bro' nonsese, condensed down only to what you need to know.
(Click on the book cover to download your free copy.)
I only work with 30-35 clients at any one time, so spaces are limited. Give me a shout if you are interested and we can have a chat and start to plan how we can set about getting you to where you want to be.
Cheers
