Could YOU have insulin resistance without knowing?

Following on from my last couple of posts about insulin resistance…

One obvious question is:

“How would I actually know if I have it?”

The tricky thing is, insulin resistance can develop gradually, and you may not notice anything obvious for years.

There are, however, some clues worth paying attention to.

👉 See how our 28-Day programme can help you get your eating and exercise back on track: https://28daybootcamp.info/

Do any of these sound familiar?

👉 More fat around your middle than you’d like
👉 Feeling tired or sleepy after meals
👉 High blood pressure
👉 High triglycerides
👉 Skin tags or darker patches of skin
👉 Type 2 diabetes or insulin resistance in your family

For women, PCOS or having had gestational diabetes can also be important clues.

For men, low testosterone or erectile problems can sometimes be associated with it too.

Now, this is important:

Having one or more of these does NOT mean you definitely have insulin resistance.

They’re clues, not a diagnosis.

But if several sound familiar, it might be a good reason to pay a little more attention to your metabolic health.

And that’s the positive part.

There are plenty of things you CAN influence:

👉 Your activity
👉 Your eating habits
👉 Your muscle
👉 Your body composition
👉 How often you’re moving

You don’t need to change everything overnight.

You just need to start moving in the right direction.

So if you’ve been thinking…

“I really need to get myself back on track before Christmas…”

This could be the push you need.

Your muscles do MUCH more than make you look toned.
Following on from my last post about insulin resistance…

I’ve been rereading Why We Get Sick by Benjamin Bikman, PhD, and I think there’s another part worth knowing.

Your muscles play a HUGE role in how your body deals with glucose and insulin.

And if you’re over 40, this matters even more.

👉 See how the 28-Day programme works

https://28daybootcamp.info/

Most women think strength training is mainly about:

👉 Toning up
👉 Looking firmer
👉 Getting stronger

All good reasons.

But there’s much more going on.

Your muscles are one of the main places your body can use glucose after you eat.

Think of them almost like a storage tank.

When you exercise and contract your muscles, they become much better at taking glucose out of your bloodstream.

So exercise isn’t JUST about the calories you burn during a workout.

You’re also helping your body handle the food you eat better.

And after 40, this becomes even more important because we naturally start losing muscle unless we actively work to maintain it.

You don’t need to become a bodybuilder.

But you DO want to stay strong, maintain your muscle and keep using it.

That’s why our 28-Day programme includes resistance training as well as cardio.

We want you to:

👉 Lose fat
👉 Get fitter
👉 Get stronger
👉 Feel more energetic

Not just weigh less.

Our next 28-Day Body Transformation Kickstart starts Monday 2nd November in Sheffield.

There’s still plenty of time to make a difference before Christmas.

Your blood tests 🩸💉 came back fine.
So why do you still feel rubbish?

It's Radek here.

I hear this ALL the time from women over 40 in Sheffield. You go to the doctor. You get the bloods done. Everything is "normal".

But you're tired by 3pm. The weight is creeping onto your middle. Sugar cravings run your evenings. And nothing you did in your thirties works anymore.

Here's the thing nobody tells you.

Normal blood sugar doesn't mean your metabolism is healthy.

It can mean your body is working OVERTIME to keep it normal. Pumping out more and more insulin to push that sugar where it needs to go.

That's called insulin resistance. When insulin stays high all day, it has a name too: hyperinsulinemia.

Think of it like this.

Your blood sugar is the score on the board. Insulin is how hard the team is running to keep that score level.

The score looks fine. The team is exhausted.

And after 40, with hormones shifting, less muscle and more stress, that team gets tired a LOT faster.

Why this matters to YOU.

High insulin is a storage signal. It tells your body to hold on to fat, especially around the belly.

It drives the energy crashes. It fuels the cravings. And it can quietly build for years before a blood sugar test ever flags a problem.

So "fine" on paper can still be a warning.

Now the good news. Because there IS good news.

This responds to what you do. Every day.

Building muscle gives that sugar somewhere to go. Eating with structure stops the spikes. Moving after meals takes pressure off insulin.

You don't need a fancy diet. You need the right basics, done consistently, with someone keeping you on track.

That's exactly what the 28-Day Kickstart is built for.

https://28daybootcamp.info/

Four weeks of training and eating designed for women & men over 40. Simple. Structured. Coached by me.

I expect EVERY person who follows it to feel the difference.

Want the details? Just send me a dm and tell me "KICKSTART". I'll send you everything personally or visit my page here:

Stop trusting "fine" when your body is telling you otherwise.

It’s Friday afternoon… and this is where a lot of people undo a good week.

A couple of drinks, a takeaway, snacks… then suddenly it’s Sunday night, and you’re saying:

**“I’ll start Monday again.”**

Enjoy your weekend. Have the meal. Have a drink if you want one.

Just don’t let one relaxed meal turn into three days of completely switching off.

**You don’t need to be perfect. You just need to stay reasonably consistent.**

And if you’ve been saying “I’ll get back on track Monday” for a few too many Mondays lately, my next **28-Day Body Transformation Kickstart starts 2nd November.**

Explore the details here:

Have a good weekend,

4 things that can support your mental health

Today is World Mental Health Day.

And here’s something I think we sometimes forget...

𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵 𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗻’𝘁 𝘁𝘄𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀.

How much you move, what you eat, how you sleep and how well you manage stress can all affect how you feel mentally as well as physically.

So if you’ve been feeling tired, anxious, stressed, low on energy or just not quite yourself lately, start with these 4 things:

𝗠𝗢𝗩𝗘 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗕𝗢𝗗𝗬

Exercise isn’t only about losing weight or getting fitter.

It can help reduce stress and anxiety, lift your mood and give you that feeling of achievement that you simply don’t get from sitting on the sofa thinking about exercising.

𝗘𝗔𝗧 𝗕𝗘𝗧𝗧𝗘𝗥

What you eat affects your energy, blood sugar and how you feel throughout the day.

If you’re constantly running on processed food, sugar and snacks, don’t be surprised if your energy and mood are all over the place too.

You don’t need to be perfect. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻.

𝗦𝗢𝗥𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗦𝗟𝗘𝗘𝗣

This one is huge.

When you don’t sleep properly, everything feels harder.

You’re more stressed, less motivated and much more likely to reach for the wrong foods the following day.

𝗟𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗡 𝗧𝗢 𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗔𝗚𝗘 𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗦

We can’t remove every stressful situation from our lives.

But we can get better at how our body responds to it.

Long-term stress can keep your nervous system switched on and affect hormones such as cortisol, which can then make sleeping properly much harder.

And that creates a knock-on effect.

𝗠𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 → 𝘀𝗹𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 → 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗲𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 → 𝗯𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗶𝗰𝗲𝘀 → 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝘅𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗶𝘀𝗲.

Everything starts working together.

You don’t always need another complicated plan.

𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝘀𝗶𝗰𝘀 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗹.

My next 28-Day Body Transformation Kickstart starts Monday 2nd November, and this is exactly what we work on... exercise, eating, routine, accountability and helping you feel better in yourself again.

If you’d like to know more, simply comment “𝗠𝗢𝗥𝗘 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢” or send me a DM, and I’ll get back to you.

And if managing stress and switching off is something you struggle with, I’m also running a breathing class tomorrow where we’ll work on simple techniques to help calm your nervous system, relax and sleep better.

Comment “BREATH” or send me a DM, and I’ll send you the details.

🍫 The 5-minute chocolate trick

You’ve had a bad day.

You’re stressed, tired, angry or just fed up… and suddenly it’s:

“I need some chocolate.”
“I deserve a glass of wine.”
“Let’s just get a takeaway.”

But sometimes the food isn’t really the problem.

Sometimes you’re just trying to change how you feel.

I’ve been reading Your Brain Is Always Listening by Dr Daniel Amen, and one idea really stood out to me:

Next time this happens, wait 5 minutes.

Ask yourself:

👉 How am I feeling right now?
👉 What happened today to make me feel like this?
👉 What am I hoping the food or drink will do for me?
👉 Is there another way I could change how I feel?

Maybe it’s a walk, a shower, a proper meal, phoning someone… or simply giving yourself a few minutes before deciding.

And if there’s a food you constantly struggle to control, sometimes removing it completely for a while can actually be easier than fighting with yourself every day.

Most of us already know quite a lot about what we should be doing.

The difficult bit is doing it consistently.

That’s exactly the sort of thing we work on during my 28-Day Body Transformation Kickstart starting this Monday.

The aim is to help you lose 7–14 lbs and/or at least one clothes size in 28 days.

And if you don’t, you’ll get another 4 weeks FREE.

September Reset: Starts Monday

Kids are back at school.

Summer holidays are over.

And routines are starting again.

September always feels a bit like a fresh start.

Even for me, getting back into my normal routine after summer takes a little effort!

But it’s also a good time to stop putting things off and ask yourself:

What do I really want to achieve?
What do I need to START doing to get there?
What keeps getting in my way?

You don’t need to change everything overnight.

You just need to start.

If your goal is to lose weight, get fitter and stronger, feel better in your clothes and get your energy back, my next 28-Day Body Transformation Kickstart starts Monday 7th September.

Follow the plan and the goal is to drop a clothes size or lose 7–14 lbs in 28 days.

Maybe September is your time to get back on track 😊
