The Alchemist – can the universe help you?
If I really want something does the universe really conspire to help me achieve it? I like to think so.
I was going through my book case the other day looking for a book to read that didn’t involved anything to do with health or fitness. My brain needed something different! I came across a book I bought years ago that left a lasting impression.
Michelle’s Empower journey – Homework!
I hate homework!
When I realised that the first part of the program was to do some homework I was hesitant. I don’t have time to do homework….. Can’t you just tell me what I need to do?
Control yourself with mindful eating

I am a warrior – Warrior Dash says so!
As I waited for the starting flames to shoot off the start line like we were going off to war I had butterflies going kamakze in my stomach…what on earth had I signed myself up for? Warrior Dash.
The benefits of boxing
“Float like a buttefly, sting like a bee…” or at least just try to keep up and keep breathing!

Nicole’s Diary – success for a chocoholic
Ok, Suzie wasn’t kidding when she said she is yet to unleash her full PT power on me!
After my first session that I mentioned in my last post, I hobbled around for a good few days. I’ve had sore muscles before, but nothing like what I experienced. Needless to say squats are not my friend! I almost shudder to think of what’s to come! Pain is gain, right?
The Biggest Loser – loser or winner in the weight loss game?
When a new season of Biggest Loser comes to air I know i’m in for two things. 1. Lot’s of questions from clients 2. Some new clients
Welcome Michelle – Starting the Empower program
It is my great pleasure to introduce you to Michelle, who has volunteered to share with us her journey as she embarks upon Empower – Lifestyle Upgrade. I have worked with Michelle before and when she is determined to do something, she goes above and beyond to get it done. I am excited to see how she goes following the program. I have asked Michelle to be brutally honest with her findings and I thank her for doing so. We will be hearing from Michelle once a week to see how she is progressing. Goodluck Michelle!
Does running burn more calories than walking?
I was recently asked the question “does running a km burn the same amount of energy as walking a km?”
Well my very first answer was – it depends. Yes I know this phrase gets used a lot but its true, nothing in the world of health and fitness is ever set in concrete as it is always changing.
