Funny how your career develops over time.

When I first started coaching 17 years ago, I worked with all sorts of people, different ages, backgrounds and goals.

Over the years, I’ve found myself working with more and more women over 35, and it’s become an area of coaching I genuinely love.

I think a lot of it comes down to my personality and how I approach things.

I’m not particularly loud, I’ve never been one for shouting at people in the gym, and I like to think I’m pretty understanding.

But I’m also big on accountability and getting results.

The women I work with often have so much going on outside of fitness. Careers, families, relationships, stress and everything else life throws at them.

And I really enjoy helping them find a way to prioritise themselves without feeling like they need to sacrifice everything else.

Seeing someone lose weight is great.

But seeing them get stronger, grow in confidence and start feeling good about themselves again is even better.

And after 17 years, that’s still what makes coaching so rewarding.

If you’re a woman over 35 looking to make some lasting changes, without the extremes, drop me a message with the word READY.

I’d love to hear from you.

How to portion your meals when you’re trying to lose body fat 🍽️

It really doesn’t need to be complicated!

One of the simplest ways to build a balanced meal is to follow this rough guide 👇

🥦 ½ your plate: Vegetables

Aim for 2–3 different varieties. Great for fibre, vitamins, minerals and helping to keep you fuller for longer.

🥩 ¼ your plate: Protein

Chicken, fish, lean meat, tofu, eggs or whatever you prefer. Protein is important for maintaining muscle, recovery and managing hunger.

🥔 ¼ your plate: Carbohydrates

Rice, potatoes, pasta or other carbohydrate sources. These provide energy for your day and your training.

🥑 Don’t forget some healthy fats too!

Olive oil, avocado, nuts or seeds can all be included as part of a balanced diet.

Now, does this guarantee fat loss? No!

Calories still matter, and ultimately you need to be in a calorie deficit to lose body fat. Portion sizes, cooking oils, sauces and extras all contribute to your overall intake.

But this is a really simple starting point, especially if you don’t want to weigh and track every single thing you eat.

You can rinse and repeat this approach with pretty much any meal, swapping your protein, vegetables and carbohydrates to keep things interesting.

Fat loss doesn’t have to mean complicated meal plans or cutting out foods you enjoy.

Sometimes it’s just about getting the basics right, consistently.

Save this for the next time you’re wondering what to have for dinner!

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to lose body fat.

But for women over 35, I think we need to start looking at the bigger picture.

What about building muscle? Getting stronger? Improving bone health? Having more energy? And making sure we’re still fit, healthy and active in our 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond?

Because these things become increasingly important as we get older.

I’ve coached plenty of women who initially came to me wanting to lose weight, but some of their biggest achievements have had nothing to do with the scales.

Lifting weights they never thought possible, doing their first pull-up, feeling fitter, having more confidence and simply feeling better in themselves.

And the best part? You can still lose body fat whilst working towards all of these things.

It’s not about choosing one or the other.

It’s about building a body that’s going to serve you well for decades to come.

So, here’s a question…

If your weight stayed exactly the same, but you were stronger, fitter and healthier than you’ve been in years, would you consider that progress?

I certainly would.

02/11/2026

You wouldn’t speak to someone you love the way you sometimes speak to yourself. So why is it acceptable when it’s you?

You miss a workout, eat more than you planned or see the scales go up.

And suddenly it’s…

“I’m useless.”
“I’ve got no willpower.”
“I’ve ruined all my progress.”

The problem is, those thoughts don’t just affect how you feel. They can influence what you do next.

Negative thought → Negative emotion → Negative behaviour.

You feel guilty, frustrated or disappointed, so you give up, skip another workout or tell yourself you’ll start again on Monday.

And the cycle continues.

This is where cognitive reframing can be really useful.

It’s not about pretending everything is brilliant or forcing yourself to think positively.

It’s about challenging those unhelpful thoughts and looking at the situation more realistically.

Instead of “I’ve ruined everything”, try “I’ve had one difficult day, but that doesn’t undo all my progress.”

One thought can change how you respond to a setback.

And over time, those responses make a massive difference to your consistency and results.

You don’t need to bully yourself into making progress.

You need to learn how to work with yourself, rather than against yourself.

Next time you catch yourself being overly critical, ask yourself:

“Would I speak to a friend this way?”

WOMEN OVER 35! Want to lose body fat, get stronger and feel more confident before the end of the year? 🔥

I’m opening up just 6 spaces for something I don’t normally offer.

After 16 years of coaching and helping hundreds of clients transform their bodies, one thing I’ve learnt is that getting results doesn’t have to mean spending hours in the gym, following restrictive diets or putting your life on hold.

Especially when you’re juggling work, family and everything else life throws at you.

So, we’re launching a special 6-week coaching programme specifically for women over 35.

The goal is simple.

Help you lose body fat, build strength, improve your confidence and get into a routine that actually works around your lifestyle.

Here’s what’s included:

✅ Personalised training built around your lifestyle
✅ Nutrition coaching focused on sustainable fat loss
✅ Weekly check-ins and accountability
✅ Ongoing support from our coaching team
✅ Practical strategies for staying consistent around work, family and social occasions

And here’s what makes this different from our usual coaching…

🔥 Just 6 weeks of personalised 1-to-1 coaching
🔥 An exclusive introductory rate for these 6 spaces
🔥 No long-term commitment

This is an opportunity to experience our coaching, get some structure in place and make real progress before 2026 comes to an end.

No extreme diets. No endless cardio. No giving up everything you enjoy.

Just a proven approach to getting results that you can actually maintain.

⏰ APPLICATIONS CLOSE MONDAY 2ND NOVEMBER!

We’re only taking on 6 women for this coaching block.

If you’ve been thinking about getting some help with your fitness, nutrition or body composition, this could be the perfect opportunity to get started.

DM me STRONG and we’ll arrange a quick chat to discuss your goals and how we can help.

Is it just me, or does 5pm now feel like 10pm?

Something that’s come up quite a bit in my client check-ins this week is the lack of motivation.

And I get it!

The clocks have changed, the weather’s rubbish, it’s getting colder and suddenly heading to the gym after a long day feels like a massive effort.

Especially when you’re already juggling work, family and everything else.

But one thing I always remind my clients is that you can’t expect to feel motivated all year round.

There will be times when everything feels easy, and other times when you’d much rather sit in front of the fire with a glass of w**e than head out for a workout. 🍷

The key is making things as easy as possible for yourself.

Get outside during daylight, train earlier if you can, keep some structure to your week and have a backup plan for those days when life gets in the way.

And remember, you don’t need to do everything perfectly.

Two workouts are better than none. A 15-minute walk is better than sitting down all evening. And one less-than-perfect meal doesn’t mean the whole week is ruined.

The biggest mistake you can make is putting everything on hold until January.

Because looking after yourself shouldn’t be something you only do when life is quiet and the weather’s nice.

Anyone else struggling with motivation now the darker evenings are here?

Nearly 5kg down, 2 pull-ups achieved and some fantastic changes in body shape.

I wanted to share this client’s progress because I think it’s a really good example of what sustainable fat loss actually looks like.

She’s a busy mum with a young child, juggling work, family life and everything else that comes with it.

And like most people in that situation, finding the time and energy to focus on herself isn’t always easy.

Sleep hasn’t always been great, there’s been illness along the way, and some weeks have been much harder than others.

But despite all of that, she’s making some really good progress.

Since we started working together in June, she’s gone from around 73kg to 68kg.

You can see some awesome changes in her body shape, but what I’m probably most pleased about is how much stronger she’s becoming.

She’s now able to do 2 full pull-ups, something she couldn’t do when we first started.

And she’s generally feeling stronger and better in herself.

The important thing here is that we haven’t done anything extreme to get these results.

We’re not trying to rush the process, we’re not massively restricting food, and we’re certainly not expecting everything to be perfect every week.

We’re simply working on getting the basics right, building consistency with nutrition and strength training, and adapting things when life gets in the way.

Because ultimately, that’s what needs to happen if you want results that last.

There’s no point following a plan that only works when you’ve got plenty of time, energy and eight hours of sleep every night.

For most people, that’s just not reality.

We’ve still got more progress to make, but I’m really pleased with how things are going so far.

And I think it’s a great reminder that you don’t need to be perfect to make some fantastic changes.

You just need an approach that works for you and your lifestyle.

If you want to have a chat about your goals and making things sustainable for you, send me the message ‘RESULTS’ 🙌

A few days away in Portugal with the family☀️🇵🇹

A bit of sunshine, some good food, family time and a chance to switch off from the usual day-to-day routine.

I think sometimes we get so caught up in work, routines and everything else going on that we forget how important it is to take a bit of time out.

No rushing around, no massive plans. Just enjoying some time together, eating plenty of nice food and making the most of the sunshine before heading back to the lovely British weather! 😂

Feeling refreshed, recharged and ready to get back into things.

Sometimes a few days away is all you need 🙌

From 4kg dumbbells to 50kg back squats! 💪

I wanted to share some of the progress my client Karen has made, because the changes have been amazing!

It’s been an absolute pleasure working with her, and she’s been a brilliant client from day one.

She’s listened to the advice, followed the plan and consistently put the work in, which is ultimately what gets results.

We’ve been through different phases with her nutrition, initially focusing on fat loss before moving into a reverse diet and gradually bringing calories back up.

Alongside that, we’ve put a big emphasis on building strength and muscle.

And the improvements have been huge!

When Karen first started, she was using 4kg dumbbells for many of her exercises. She’s now back squatting 50kg, and we’ve seen similar improvements in strength pretty much across the board.

Her physique has completely changed too, but for me, it’s the improvements in strength that really stand out.

And perhaps more importantly, she’s feeling happier, healthier and more confident in herself.

I think Karen is a great example of what can be achieved when you have a structured plan, stay consistent and give things enough time.

It’s not about constantly dieting or trying to lose more and more weight. There comes a point where we need to shift the focus towards building strength, muscle and maintaining the progress we’ve made.

Karen has embraced every stage of that process and done everything I’ve asked of her.

She also recently left me a really lovely Google review, which I massively appreciate.

It’s been a pleasure working with her, and I’m looking forward to seeing what else we can achieve.

Brilliant work, Karen! 👏
