The past week has seen me up and out at 6.40am on four mornings, ready to take on the challenge of an early morning class in the gym. It has been my first week back in 10 months! This has been partly due to a bit of nervousness- it’s true, the longer you leave something […]

If you’ve read my ‘Musings’ post you will have realised that it has been a challenging couple of weeks (in fact I haven’t written about the greatest challenge of all, because at the moment, I just can’t) which have pushed me to my limits. Working two festivals in two weeks and a road traffic collision […]
The past week or so has been really difficult. Motivating myself to get out of bed and exercise has not been easy. I’ve slept very little due to a pressure build up in my left ear and it has left me feeling rather flat. Add to this the dental treatment – major work on my […]
2020 The ability to throw myself into things until I reach breaking point in order to escape situations I am struggling with, has stayed with me. It is my stress buster. Unfortunately, more recently, it has also become a bit of a body buster. When I turned 60, my daughter suggested I rejoin the local […]
I have to say that as I am writing this, I am beyond excited about the prospect of tomorrow: the 17th May and the day I get to lead my first live, face to face POUND class in almost seven months! I had only really just got my classes up and running before the first […]
This morning was a milestone for me; after a couple of weeks of nursing a slightly sprained ankle, it was time to challenge myself in my workout. I did all my usual stretches and warm up before embarking upon a full-on Kettlebell HIIT workout on the Joe Wicks App. Nothing unusual here, you might think, […]
Last weekend I twisted my ankle causing a sprain. It was the last thing I needed, especially as I was doing so well with my daily exercise and workout plan using the Joe Wicks Body Coach App. I was so frustrated! However, I was also sensible I rested it for the first few days to […]
I took a bit of a break over Holy Week and Easter. It is a busy time for a Vicar! But now we are out the other side and so I’m more than ready to get back with it. I’m looking forward to getting back into the groove, literally of beating those sticks whilst squatting […]
I can remember being on holiday in the South of France a few years ago and the whole family joining in a Joe Wicks fitness session by the pool. (Mad, I know in 30°!). I have to explain that this was a few years ago, and before Joe Wicks became as famous as he is […]
Those who are in the know will acknowledge that there is nothing divides a fitness class like the love/hate relationship with the Burpee. The Burpee is a full body, explosive movement involving a drop from standing into a push up position – often taking the chest to the floor – followed by a return to […]
