Lincoln UK Personal Trainer & Nutrition Coach @holfitpt-blog - Tumblr Blog

Hi Guys been a while, so I thought I'd bring you a quick update with how I've been training folks nowadays... . The commercial gyms in Lincoln have reopened but I've decided to switch my direction, getting more bespoke and personable. I have now set up my own local private studio👌 . Being an experienced PT for 15 years I have an extensive range of strength & conditioning/HIIT style kit (some shown above). . For those wanting all the proven guidance and benefits of HOL-FIT PT/nutritional coaching, you can now exercise at the studio 1-1 (with free parking and no equipment waiting times). Or we can train at your home and I'll provide the motivation, structure & kit (within 7 mile radius of Lincoln). Weather permitting we could also train in an outdoor public space too. . Online Personal training is also available with the HOL-FIT training app, you'll recieve video call routine demo's, progress check-ins and ongoing support. . Current gov corona guidelines are followed! . Keep active. Strengthen your immunity. Beat obesity. .

There are no known substance that can actually prevent viral infections. However a strong immune system can deal with infection severity better. . P.s. I am not a medical professional, so please speak to one if you have any concerns! . 1. Processed foods. These are devoid of nutrients and protective antioxidants which means they rob your body of nutrients, leading to nutrient deficiencies and are pro-inflanmatory in nature. They also lack helpful digestive enzymes. . 2. Lack of exercise If your body doesnt have a regular adaptive stimulus to maintain or increase its functional capacities it will simply degenerate. Your body has evolved for locomotion and requires it. Btw excessive unbalanced exercise (overtraining) is detrimental too. . 3. Accumulative stress &/or a major stressful event. Stress can occur from physical sources like extremes in the environment and chemical agents. Stress can also be menatlly self-induced by perceived dangers/challenges whether real or imagined. . All stressors trigger the fight of flight response for better survival. We get a surge of action taking hormones & stored sugars are released into our bloodstream. However if overly exposed these substance accelerate the rate of breakdown of our body. . 4. Overweight A chronic imbalance in calories consumed versus calories expended leads to excessive fat tissue. High visceral fat (in the abdominal region surrounding organs) & circulating nutrient excesses creates a pro-inflammatory state leading to metabolic issues, oxidative damage and a suppression of the immune system. . 5. Hazardous substances smoking, alcohol consumption, illegal drugs etc disrupt normal biological functions . 6. Environmental pollution Unclean air/water, noise pollution, hormone disrupting pesticides residues etc . 7. Inadequate sleep/rest If the body doesnt have enough time to regenerate & your circadian rhythms are out sync your immune system will be compromised. . 8. Poor hygiene. Not keeping yourself or your environment fresh and clean therefore accumulating waste, leads to pathogen build up and growth. . In my next post i'll show the things that are proven to strengthen your immune system 👍 (at Puregymlincolnofficial) https://www.instagram.com/p/B99c69bB8ge/?igshid=kdttxc56g5lz

The negative psycho-social effects of the C word, amplified by sensationalist media outlets & doom sayers at large. . Think about how the uncertainty of this global phenomenom maybe affecting others. Think about how you talk about this topic, what effect it has on others & what message your spreading. . . . . . #corona #covid_19 #mentalhealth #factnotfear #perspective #sensibilitynotsensationalism #compassion #communityspirit #keepcarmandcarryon #holfit #supportlocal #independents #optimismwins #hopealways🙏 (at PureGym Lincoln) https://www.instagram.com/p/B94qzZ_BOxn/?igshid=1hotmgom4sdnr

Killer Upper body personal training session with my Lincoln graduate students @chakky.lee & @craigcooper. . Small Group training in 2's or 3's creates a real lively cooperative atmosphere when we train together. . I initially set out the training sessions tailored to your goals & training frequency and explain every exercise in detail. You'll know why your doing them, in what appropriate order, as well the do's and dont's to optimise effectiveness and prevent injury. . With small group training you'll want to help push yourself and your training buddies to get the most our of your sessions. . You'll naturally find yourself more accountable turning up to your arranged training times and communicating with your fellow training partners outside of training. You'll help push each other to get the most out of your gym sessions. . Well done Chakky & Craig with your outstanding performance in the gym. Looking forward to your progress measurements next week! . . . . . #licolnuk #lovelincoln #universityoflincoln #lincolnuni #puregymlincoln #student #studentlife #studentathletes #examrelief #personaltrainerlincoln #personaltraining #nutritionplans #fitnessjourney #exercisemotivation #smallgrouptraining #smallgroupfitness #smallgrouppersonaltraining #smallgrouppt #semiprivatetraining #semiprivatepersonaltraining #semiprivatept #training #trainingpartner #trainingmode #fatlossmotivation #fatlossingprogress #musclegainerinprogress #holfit #smashedit👊 #thrivetogether (at PureGym Lincoln) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9ug4XNBJv9/?igshid=16ruzbrymcu5l

Thought I'd create a little intro about myself as I'm getting instafit properly this year. . Yes that's me on top of a lion in the Lincoln Arboretum living life on the edge. Step ladders we're hidden which made for a great shot 📸 😅 . I'm Steve the founder of HOL-FIT Holistic Fitness, an experienced (2006+) Lincoln based Personal Trainer who's passionate about all things health orientated... . I've been a Rugby captain of my hometown, completed the Nottingham Robin Hood Mararhon, have decades of weight training/PT experience behind me with proven client results, testimonials & transformations to back this up. I've also had to overcome a deep depression from my early 20's. The tools that enabled me to thrive and regain an optimistic outlook are the things I share now balanced physical training/recovery, nourishing/fuelling nutrition & meditation/mindfulness. . My mission in life has been to workout what us humans need for optimal health & wellbeing and to get this out into our community, empower others. . I specialise in weight loss & lean muscle gain transformations (& yes it's possible to do both), in 1-1 & 'student friendly' small group training formats. I also help clients with nutritional coaching/ tracking, postural assessments & corrective exercise. . Click like, share & follow as I'll be more active on social now and plan to release quality/useful content weekly. .

I've been lucky enough to coach many students over the years & know their issues (especially exam periods), academic time schedules & usually un-managed budgets. . Many don't know how to train or eat properly to facilitate their desired goals. Follow cheap generic online plans or try to piece together tips from social influencers themselves. With a 'little' investment with my knowledge & expertise I can structure your training around you to get optimal results whether that be weight loss, muscle gain, sports specific or health/fitness related. . I've been a full-time uni student myself & know the socio-academic lifestyle but always managed to prioritise my Rugby/weights training & budget for a healthier lifestyle. . I know personal training can appear as a luxury item as it 'should' be bespoke & tailored to you & your goals. But I've deliberate created affordable ways for students to access personal training for as little as £6 a week (a trip to Starbucks or a couple of drinks down the SU). . For a limited time only, till Friday 6th of March, I'm including a FREE consultation with Small Group Training (2-3ppl) or a 6wk training plan. That's only 4 days to get booked in & started on your journey towards RESULTS. . Check out my website in the BIO for pricing & testimonials. Write your name at the bottom of the post & I'll be in touch or DM me any questions & your ideal starting times. . Looking forward to coaching you personally 👍 . . . . . #Puregymlincoln #lincolnuniversity #uol #studentdeals #affordablePT #RESULTSaccelerated #HOLFIT (at PureGym Lincoln) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9RruiTBIbd/?igshid=tjywttsc8grv

Here's Nicks 'natural' muscle gain transformation. . Nick was a 'hard gainer', he comes from a dancing background and had a naturally low body fat percentage of 12%. . Consistently training 3 x week around his busy work schedule was key. I prescribed him a personalised routine that accounted for his posture imbalances as well as addressed his main athletic muscle gain goal. We periodised (changed up) his training every 6 weeks to provide a new muscle building stimulus to progress into. . We upped the training intensity at every opportunity without breaking any of the muscle gain fundamentals - perfect form & slow rep tempo speed. . We added weighted ab work in to the later stages of Nick's transformation to get his 6 pack to pop. Nick also dropped down to 10% body fat at this point as well as gaining his new lean tissue. . HOL-FIT now offers it's very own bespoke Macros Calculator to set & adjust individual clients calories & macro targets. Targets are set for training days/rest days, pre/post exercise nutrition, differing meal frequency and meal sizes that best suit your lifestyle 💥 Couple this with real time tracking & accurate body fat recording then you've got the tools to maximise 'lean' muscle gain whilst minimise any fat accumulation 💪 . Well done Nick on the hard work & commitment you put into your transformation 👏👏 . #musclegain #transformation #bodyfatreduction #HOLFIT (at PureGym Lincoln) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9HC4UGhbky/?igshid=1ppfeqo92acx0
