Another new test this week – I failed too…or did I? I tried something that I’ve always wanted to do, the old pull up on a high platform structure. I’d done well to this point at ab and core strengthening. I’ve been doing some additional reading up on ab workouts recently and decided to giveContinue reading “Chin up(s)….It will happen one day.”

There are many motivators that grace our week. Be it the PT giving you knowledge and strength or supportive family and friends, there are a large number of people willing you on to succeed and push you.

Through first weeks of training, I’m looking round at the familiar equipment in the gym – the ones I like, the ones that would test me, the ones that will get me to where I want to be.

I would say deep down that this isContinue reading “What a load of Prep!”

With the recent weather and the clocks going back, the drizzly mornings and the earlier evenings…. I perhaps would have slumped in the pastContinue reading “Holding Time, Holding Happiness”

It’s been a while, does that mean there haven’t been any positive to report? No! Quite the opposite.. A new job in an industry promoting personal development has emerged and it’s been the main focus over the last few weeks and I’m loving it. I’ve seen first hand the journeys people go on to stretchContinue reading “Stretching..”

It’s recommended for business owners, however anyone with a need to start, sharpen the skill set or just wanting a different take on marketing should take note of this publication. The formatContinue reading “A review of Watertight Marketing”

Mentally… Physically… Emotionally…. Mentally, people have metaphorical walls to climb.
