Haven’t “worked out” today? Before you spiral into guilt and start frantically googling Boot Camps… watch this.

Because if you’ve:
🔹 Cleaned up 47 bits of plastic food
🔹 Power-walked after a runaway toddler
🔹 Hoovered eleventy-billion pieces of cereal off the kitchen floor

…you’ve already burned more calories than you think. That’s NEAT - Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis - aka the daily movement you’re already doing without booking a class or changing into Lycra.

NEAT is the unsung hero of fat loss and energy burn.
And no one does it better than mums with chaotic homes, clingy toddlers, and biscuit crumbs in their bra.

So stop writing off your day just because you didn’t do burpees.
You live NEAT. Own it.

LADIES - WE KNOW TIME IS PRECIOUS, AM I RIGHT?!

But boiling the kettle for that crucial cuppa is a sacred act to get us through the day without losing our minds 🥴

So why not give your body (and brain) a boost and spend a few mins getting acquainted with a resistance band while the kettle does its thing?

Your glutes will thank you!

Save this to come back to later and let me know if you give it a go! 🫶

If you’ve ever found yourself spiralling because the number on the scales isn’t shifting, despite doing all the things - this one’s for you.

Same weight. Totally different body.
And I’ve got a lump of Play-Doh and a pile of toy stuffing to prove it!

Here’s the truth:

👎 Scales can’t tell the difference between fat and muscle.

👍 Muscle is smaller, denser, and useful in making you feel like a powerful mother-trucker

So if you’re showing up, moving your body, fuelling it well - but your weight hasn’t budged?

You might still be making BIG changes. Just not ones the scales care about.

👉 This is your reminder that the mirror, your clothes, and your strength tell a better story than gravity ever will.

Somewhere along the way, we were sold the lie that soreness = success.
but here’s the truth:

💪 DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) is just your body responding to something new or different - like a new movement or higher intensity.

💪 You don’t need to feel sore for your workout to be effective.

In fact, being less sore over time can be a sign that your body is adapting and getting stronger.

Progress isn’t measured in pain — it’s measured in strength, confidence, and consistency 🙌

Let’s bust the “no pain, no gain” myth once and for all - and share it with someone who needs to hear it!

#chichesterpersonaltrainer #ptformums #fitnessmyths #strongnotsore #bodypositivefitness #realbodiesrealtalk #mumstrength #fitover40 #postpartumfitness #womensfitnesscoach

If you’re relying on workouts alone to lose weight, you’re basically trying to fill a paddling pool with a teacup. 🫠

Here’s where your energy really goes each day (news flash: it’s not just spin class and salad guilt):

🧱 60% = just keeping you alive (BMR)
🧱 15–30% = daily movement like hoovering, toddler-wrangling, and kitchen dancing (NEAT)
🧱 10% = digesting food (yes, even the biscuits)
🧱 5–10% = actual workouts

So yes, workouts matter. But so does literally everything else you do with your body.

This is why focusing only on exercise while ignoring your everyday habits = slow progress, endless frustration, and blaming the scales when it’s really about the bigger picture.

✨ Want results? Move more. Eat well. Sleep sometimes. Stress less.

And stop relying on one tiny block to do the whole damn job.

Don't get me wrong - I'd always want a coach who looks like they practice what they preach, but here's the thing..

Just because they can give themselves a giant 🍑 that James himself would be in awe of, doesn't mean the same method will work for you, Boo.

Genetics, body types, lifestyles, stressors, limiting factors AND MORE all play a part in how our bodies respond to exercise.

We may all get to the same destination, but the roads we take will be different.

Find yourself a PT who understands YOU, and can build you a programme accordingly - frantically Mum-life and all 😅

Sometimes I question whether my facial muscles are working harder than my body 😂

This is your gentle reminder that your workout doesn't need to be cute, perfect or instagrammable.

I'm so far from the butt-scrunch, Stanley cup, fitness influencer it's unreal 😅 (no shade, it's just not me 🤷‍♀️).

Ive dropped weights on my face, hit my head on squat racks and pulled alllll the faces. It's all good Boo.

Full pushups are TOUGH!

And if they're on your hit list for 2025, you've got 6 months to make that happen!

Luckily I've got you covered 🫶

Work out which of these you find suitably challenging for 3 sets of 12-15 reps.

Then bash them out like there's no tomorrow (bonus points if you've got a toddler climbing on you 😁).

Once you're heating 3 x 15 easily, move up to the harder version.

Et voila!

You'll have your new party trick in no time (far more impressive than the limbo 😉)

Apparently “yoga boobs” are in now. Now I'm just waiting on “pilates knees” to be trending 🙄

But seriously - this is what happens when the media treats women’s bodies like fashion accessories. We’re not outfits you can swap each season. we’re real humans with strong, capable, incredible bodies - and they are not trends.

This is your reminder that you don’t need to shrink, tweak, lift or sculpt yourself to fit into the next aesthetic. You’re not a mannequin - you’re a powerhouse.

We get it. You’re busyyyy!

Kids, work, life admin, and of course… keeping up with who got pied off on Love Island 👀

But here’s the truth (said with love):

You don’t need an hour. You don’t need a gym.

You just need 10 minutes, a bit of creativity, and maybe to mute the TV during ad breaks.

Movement can fit into your day - if you let it. 🏃‍♀️

Tag your "too busy" mate. Then go do 10 squats while the kettle boils ☕

Remember when all you needed to work out was a Steps CD and some questionable butterfly clips?

Now you’re being told you need £200 leggings, a gym membership and, of course, the obligatory Stanley Cup just to do a squat 🙄

Let’s be real.

You don’t need:
❌ A gym
❌ An hour
❌ Leggings that require a second mortgage

You do need:
✔️ A body
✔️ A bit of chaos tolerance
✔️ And maybe a sturdy bra, depending on the day (and the size of your 🍒)

Want to start moving more as a mum? Here’s how:

– 5 squats every time you say “where are your shoes?”
– 10 press-ups against the sofa while CBeebies is on
– Follow @hannahjoyfitness for more simple fitness without the BS

Small steps, big impact. Because you don’t need to be perfect – you just need to begin.

“Lifting heavy will make you bulky,” they said. (Or maybe they didn’t, but for some reason people still fear it 🤷‍♀️)

Meanwhile I’ve been deadlifting like Arnie for years and I’m still waiting for the Incredible Hulk transformation 😅

Spoiler: Building visible muscle takes serious work, consistency, and usually a LOT more protein than the odd boiled egg.

Heavy weights help you get toned, strong and confident, not suddenly sprout traps that would make The Rock envious.

So let’s stop fearing the dumbbells and start using to take out our frustrations and build our confidence girlies!

I started with no gym membership, no proper sportswear and no clue.

Literally - I was working out at home on an old yoga mat, with only a hastily purchased weight, some YouTube vids and a vague desire to get fit behind me.

If you'd told ANYONE (let alone me), that I'd end up not only a full on freakin' GYM RAT 🐀, but a fully qualified Personal Trainer, they'd have started searching for your marbles.

And yet, here we are 🤷‍♀️

(No shade on home workouts - I still bosh them out on occasion, but gym is now my second home.)

I work with heaps of people that struggle to get started. They have gym anxiety, fear of failure and a total absence of motivation.

They want the CHANGE, but don't know where to begin.

Sound familiar?

We all start somewhere. Whether it's getting your steps up, cracking out YouTube exercises routines in your bra or cracking out a tree-pose while your toddler climbs you.

The important thing is to START.

And if you want support with that, I know this great PT... 😉

Girls I HEAR YOU!

Sometimes I’d rather change 1000 nappies than set foot in a gym.

Sometimes, just battling through the school run makes me feel like I’ve completed a marathon and the cardio I get running around the house finding coins for the non-uniform day I’d forgotten about is plenty, THANKS!

But we know that movement is medicine and one of THE BEST things we can do for our minds and our souls…so what do we do when motivation to move has left the freakin' building?

1️⃣ Lower the bar - Instead of aiming for a full workout, commit to _just 5 mins_. Tell yourself you can stop after that. Often, starting is the hardest part, and once you’ve begun, you’re more likely to keep going.

2️⃣ Get yer kit on - Getting dressed for a workout signals to your brain that movement is coming. Even if you don’t feel like it now, it gives you a fighting chance later (and hey, comfy leggings = a win either way).

3️⃣ Switch things up - throw in a new exercise, change the playlist, do literally _anything_ other than the same squat routine you've done since 2012. Because boredom kills motivation, and low motivation kills gains! 💪

SAVE this post for when you need it, and SHARE with a friend who might need it too! 😘

What I’d tell every mum about exercise… if I could shout it from the school gates:

💥 You don’t need a full hour.
You just need 10–15 minutes and a bit of peace (and let’s be real… even the peace is optional).

💥 Rest days aren’t failure.
You’re not lazy. You’re human. And possibly sleep-deprived. Rest is where the magic happens anyway.

💥 Your body isn’t broken.
It’s carried babies, carried stress, and is still showing up. It might not feel like your body right now - but it’s still yours, and it’s still strong.

There is so much noise out there telling women they need to do more, push harder, shrink themselves, bounce back, tone up, fit it in...
But honestly? You’re doing plenty.

The trick is doing it your way — messy, imperfect, and probably in mismatched socks.

It counts. You count.

🔥 Client Transformation! 🔥

This badass has been working with me for just 8 weeks - and just LOOK at that transformation!

A more toned physique, more definition, 2.5cm lost around the hips and 1.5cm from around the waist.

And it’s not just aesthetics.

They’ve also reported:

💪 Improved mental health
💪 Lower anxiety and higher confidence
💪 Higher energy levels
💪 Fewer aches and pains
💪 Improved physical strength‌

This one shows up, week in, week out, and gets the job DONE. She meets every challenge I set her, both in and out of our sessions - and it shows.

I can’t wait to see what she achieves next - watch this space!

Tomorrow’s another day. Be kind to yourself, and accept that sometimes life happens.

I'll level with ya.

Maintaining health & fitness, or exercise in any form, isn't easy.

Fitting it among the kids clubs, work, laundry and sleep is tough. Doing it on the days when you'd rather have a dinner date with Nigel Farage than step foot in a gym is tough. And don't get my STARTED on Bulgarian split squats 😭

But...(and here's the key):

I'm yet to meet a single person who doesn't agree that it's all so freakin' WORTH IT.

💪 The improved mental health
💪 The badass strength
💪 The dream physique
💪 The buzz of hitting PRs

...the list goes on!

So, I can't promise you an easy ride (especially if you choose me as your PT 😉), but one thing I can absolutely guarantee...?

It will 100% be worth it ❤️🙌

#personaltrainerwestsussex #exercise #thisgirlcan #personaltrainerformums #womenwholift #girlswhogym #girlswholift #mentalhealth #strongmumsclub

Sorry to break it to you Boo, but if you want to make lasting changes to your health & fitness, you gotta get on the FOOD TRACKING TRAIN! 🚄

Far from being obsessive, boring, or something reserved for high level athletes and Victoria's Secret models (of which I am clearly neither), knowing what you're putting in your body is CRUCIAL on your fitness journey.

It's literally the foundations. If you don't get it right, your temple will crumble 🏚

The good news?

It doesn't require even Primary school level of Maths (phew 😅), or special fandangled weighing scales (also phew).

Follow these 4 simple steps and you'll have the badass body of your dreams in no time 💪

Muscle makes us move.

Fat protects our organs, insulates and stores energy.

And skin keeps it all in place 😁

It's all a bit of a miracle, really. Every part of our body has a function, which we need to recognise and appreciate.

Sure, you can work to grow parts you like and reduce parts you don't (DM me if you want help with that 😉), but BE KIND TO YOURSELF and your body.

Over and out 🫡

Is it a rest day or an existential crisis? Either way… we showed up 😂

Sometimes life is LIFING and that sh*t is tough.

You’ve just undertaken the gauntlet that is the school run, dragging reluctant participants in tow, whipped round ALDI trying to avoid the temptation to buy a canoe from the middle isles, boshed out some life admin and put on the eleventy-billionth load of laundry…and now you’ve got to try and muster up the energy to actually exercise.

If you can…happy days. If you can’t, no drama. Have a stretch instead - your body, (and mind), will thank you for it.

Smart watches are great.

They can tell you when your kids are elevating your heartrate, tell you when to go to bed, and - yeh - even tell you the time 😂

But they do have their downfalls, and as with all technology - we become over-reliant on them.

I don't know about you, but if my watch tells me my 'daily readiness' is lower than a politician's morals then it doesn't matter how perky I WAS feeling - that training is going to feel like wading through treacle.

And how many times have you dragged yourself through a workout, only to be told that you burned the equivalent calories of a grape 🍇 for your efforts?

My point is - by all means use that little wrist-gadget to support your health efforts - but don't let your smart watch replace you TUNING IN to your body and trusting your gut.

Noone knows you, better than YOU.

Let me know what annoying things your smart watch has told you recently! 👇

Jokes aside, (sort of), mobility, (along with strength and balance), are some of the best predictors of longevity - i.e. living longer.

Being able to move your body freely is not only empowering, (you bet I’m gunna be a 70 year old pole dancer 🙌), but also puts you at reduced risk of injury, hospitalisation, disease and disability.

Anyone who spent their formative years being force-fed the rhetoric that Victoria's secret models were the only acceptable body type and thigh gaps were more desirable than a lie-in when you're a parent - that sh!t is behind us 🙌

I'll say it louder for those at the back - BODY TYPES ARE NOT, AND NEVER WILL BE, A TREND.

This is the era of the healthy body. The powerful body. The fuel-yourself-with-food body.

Share this with someone who needs to hear it, and join the revolution 💪🙌

Sometimes the temptation is rrrreeeealll am I right?! 😅

It's natural not to be 'on it' every day. Don't fret. Some times life is life-ing and it's all you can do to make it to the end of the day without losing your actual sh*t in the middle of a supermarket aisle cos you can't find the broccoli 🥦 (or wine 😉)

My advice?

On days when you'd rather go on a date with Nigel Farage than hit the gym - try and just turn up. Stay for 5 min, then reassess. If Nigel Farage still looks tempting, sack it off. 9 times out of 10, you'll stay and get something done.

All movement is movement.

If you want to get stronger, more confident and healthier 🏋‍♀️ without losing your sanity, drop me a DM to find out how I can help 🫶

I love a beautifully formed shoulder 😂

These are 4 of my go-to shoulder bashers at the moment (also my absolute fave to hit rear delts - face pulls - not shown here cos I do them on back day).

1. Military press (3 x 8-12): These are humbling as hell 😅. It takes a while to get the form spot on and I'm actually a little lopsided here but...we move!

2. Seated front raise (3 x 8-12): This was my first time switching to these from regular front raises courtesy of a video by @jake.beast and I'm blown away - these are bad in all the best ways!

3. Shoulder press (3 x 8-12): Standard in a shoulder workout. Think I could've gone higher in this set but that's for next time!

4. Cable lateral raise: (3 x 8-12 per side): LOVE these compared to their dumbbell counterparts for a greater ROM!

Save this, try it out and let me know how you get on!

Stay strong beauties 💪 xxx

Solid hang glider variation 👌

Next step was to transition this to pegasus which wasn't quite so smooth but work in progress!

Another variation whose name completely escapes me 😅

Fun nonetheless. Pole pole pole 🙌
