Started the day off with fasted cardio on the treadmill for 45 minutes as I had to send my progress pictures to my coach and go and have my glutes and hammies pummelled back to a pain free state. Mags at Intershape (which is the gym I train at), worked wonders on my right glute, … Continue reading Day 22 – Sleepy, oh so sleepy

So following a conversation with Muscley Bitch Liz at the gym yesterday regarding the size of our waists, I measured mine this morning and its sat comfortably at 26" which isn't too bad. Right glute is still tight and so is my hamstring when I wake up, so fasted cardio is a fast walk on … Continue reading Day 23 – 26″ waist equals happy Thursday

Woke up extremely stiff with a tightness in my right ass cheek so I decided today's fasted cardio will be completed on the treadmill with the assistance of some top 80's hits. Looked a bit leaner in the mid section today during posing practise but I still think my arms look wafer thin - I … Continue reading Day 24 – Broken glutes

I am definitely feeling the effects of the increased training and cardio as my glutes were very tender today. I start my day off slightly differently as my beloved stairway to heaven is occupied by someone else when I arrive at the gym, but its ok as its my friend Kerin and I know she … Continue reading Day 25 – What is a Shop Window Treatment?

So following yesterdays blog, support has been flooding through left, right and centre. It has totally lifted me out of this slump and got me back on my feet. So thank you to everyone who messaged, liked, commented and even spoke to me face to face. If I didn't have a good support network I … Continue reading Day 26 -Your support is amazing

Today started really well, a fast walk up Pendle Hill and with it being that windy on the top and that I had forgotten my hat, I ran back down. It was a beautiful morning and I felt really happy, positive and motivated. I went straight to the stables and had my breakfast there and … Continue reading Day 27 – Ready to quit

So I didn't blog yesterday as my cold was pretty bad and I took the advice from my coach and took the day off from training although I did do my fasted cardio in the morning. One mistake that I did make yesterday was to eat an entire bottle of vitamin C tablets in the … Continue reading Day 28 – Still full of cold

I start my day absolutely full of cold and having to negotiate not falling off the stairway of heaven every time I need to blow my nose. I must admit I just let it dribble freely a few times whilst completing one of my complex moves. I didn't get much sleep due to my cold … Continue reading Day 30 – Must stop thinking about warm gooey cookies

So firstly I need to explain why I missed yesterday's blog and that is because I did something normal and went to the cinema in the evening and didn't get back till late with porridge and gym bag packing to complete. So this blog will contain updates from day 32 and day 31. Day 32 … Continue reading Day 31 – a C-Bomb and invasion in my mirror

So I haven't blogged for the past few days as I had a little holiday to a fabulous place called Blackpool. It was my first time going as I was told by my mother that I was allergic to Blackpool, Turkey and Egypt. So obviously you listen to your mother, even though my has been … Continue reading Day 33 – Had a little holiday and now I am back with a vengeance
