I'VE STARTED TRACKING MY CALORIES...

Hi Guys! I hope you are all good today as we are now half way through the week! So I have always thought I was pretty on top of things with food. I thought I had a good understanding of how much I was putting in, both portion size and calorie wise. I have dabbled in tracking, but have always failed in keeping it up because it took a while to add all the foods and drinks I was taking in. I essentially wasn’t committed enough to keep it going or figure it out myself. However, MyFitness Pal - the number 1 food tracking app has come on leaps and bounds. With extra features such as barcode scanning and portion size automation, it takes care of everything so easily. All you have to do is enter what portion of the food you ate and BOOM, your done. You can carry on with your day. It literally takes me a maximum of 1 minute to enter the foods that I am eating to get a clearer (I say clearer because it can’t always be 100% accurate) understanding of what is going into my body. Tracking food was frustrating because I probably knew that I was eating stuff that I shouldn’t have done and as soon as I started to add it in, I felt guilty and packed it in. However, that is the whole point of tracking food. It makes you make better decisions and helps you question whether you need it because if you go over your target calories for the day, then you aren’t going to hit your goals as quickly as you would if you stayed under. The goal is to stick to this for 6 weeks, just like anything to do with fitness, you have to give it time. You can’t expect quick fixes and you can’t expect miracles. You need to commit to what you do and stick to it. We have the ability to calculate your calorie count and macronutrients and put that into a plan in line with your training. Let me know if this could be something you are interested in. Have a great day. Graham P.S. I’ve also found that you can now integrate my fitness pal with Training Peaks so we can check on your daily calorie count with your training to make our coaching decisions even more informed! They update in real time as well, which is super cool! P.S. Remember that you can buy all of your turbo and cycling needs from our online store.

Sometimes it’s ok to have a binge.

Sometimes it’s ok to have a binge. In this day and age, we get told that to lose weight or look perfect we have to be the perfect dieters and eat nothing but lettuce and drink smoothies. Well, this isn’t true and definitely doesn’t sit right with my style of coaching. If you are busy with work and family, then diet isn’t always going to go perfectly. Plus we all have a social life right! This weekend, I had a bit of a binge. I have been on top of my diet eating mainly a pescatarian/vegetarian diet recently but this was my last weekend where I could really do nothing and I had a bit of a binge with pizzas and scones with jam and cream. If you are looking to lose weight, you are better to do it over the course of the year, slowly and safely rather than trying to leave it last minute and go on crazy diets with huge Calorie deficits. The best way to lose weight is: 1. set yourself targets every 8-12 weeks. 2. Then also have a target each month so it becomes 4 week goals 3. Then have a weekly target so it is only 7 days. 4. Have a qualified nutritionist or PT look after your needs to do this safely and in the right way. 5. Become accountable. Have a group of like minded people to help you. This way you start to take each day step by step rather than think how far away 12 weeks is and suddenly the goal becomes unattainable. To put the right practices in place we have qualified nutritionists on hand to look after your nutrition needs. Remember, It is ok to have a little binge every once and a while, as long as your nutrition stays on course 80% of the time. Have a great day! Graham     P.S.
