Sometimes my inability to admit that I’m wrong gets me into trouble. Mainly with the wife (I haven’t been allowed to pick the film for date night since I chose San Andreas…please don’t bother watching it). You see, when you hold a belief so strongly you find it difficult go back on it. As humans, it’s bloody hard …

I literally just wanted to relax, watch a bit of TV and chill out. But it was meant to be my training day and I had already missed a day last week. ^^^ It happens to us all and is something I have to remind clients about when they send me something along the lines of: “Really sorry, Matt…. “I skipped …

No, it’s not cranberries (or blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries for that matter) No, it’s not green tea (or that Bootea ‘detox’ stuff as they’ll definitely be telling you about that). No, it’s not garlic. And no, it’s not Aloe Vera… You see, I eat and enjoy all of the above (minus the Aloe Vera and Bootea) as part of my …
So we FINALLY picked up our Nissan Qashqai yesterday. Spacious (good for my work…and dog) and a bit more comfortable than my beloved Citroen C1. But the funny thing is… It’s gone from people asking if I’m a hairdresser (when I arrive in the Citroen C1) to: “Matt, you’re married, you’ve got a dog, and now you’ve bought a …
“I wake up at around 6am, get the kids ready for school, do the school run, come back to do my exercise, and then eat my breakfast after so that I burn more fat. But I’ve been feeling a bit dizzy when exercising?” ^^^ This was a question I got this week. Now, she was referring to …
It’s Friday, bank holiday weekend…and I’ve got a nutritious, yet satisfying fish and chips (with mushy peas) recipe for you. Ingredients (serves 2): * 2 white fish fillets (I used sea bass with skin on) * 60 g of flour (I used chickpea flour AKA gram flour as it’s gluten free) * 1 beaten egg * 1 kcal fry spray …
If you had a “million pound” racehorse, how would you treat it? Would you feed it rubbish so it didn’t have any energy? Would you not let it sleep so it felt tired and sluggish? Would you not let it exercise so it wasn’t fit enough to live up to it’s expectations? Of course, not. But, we so often do …

I’ve only recently got out of the (bad) habit of working from my kitchen. Not because it meant that the occasional crumb would accompany a nutrition plan or because it meant my kitchen was messy (which I’ll come on to later) But because I would find myself snacking more. Having a cuppa just to procrastinate. Looking at the fridge …

I watched my first ever episode of Game of Thrones last night…safe to say I’ve got a fair few questions so I’ll just stick to what I know for today (I spent the whole episode asking my wife “what” “when” and “how”…). Kid’s nutrition is a hot topic right now. Now, I don’t have kids, but as …

Did you watch the London Marathon yesterday? Inspirational stuff, right? Although watching it whilst I was tucking in to a leftover homemade burger (recipe to come tomorrow) did make me feel a little guilty… But, from the guy looking to break the world record for being the fastest to run the marathon with a fridge on his back …
