After surgery last week, I was honestly dreading physio. “They’ll be with you after lunch” One day post-op, knee swollen, hadn’t moved for 24 hours, tired, sore, weeing in a bottle TMI and the thoughts going through my head were things like: “How am I going to get up the stairs?” “How am I going …
I had a few conversations over the last few weeks that reminded me of something really important… Simple works. Especially when it comes to nutrition and protein, we often think it has to be complicated. Meal prep containers. Perfect macros. Fancy recipes. Timings. Ratios. Calculators.

This is something I see all the time. Especially on a Thursday. I think it has a habit of making people feel behind.. Someone misses a workout. Eats something they didn’t plan. Has a couple of messy days. And then the thought creeps in: “I’ll start again on Monday.” But here’s the bit that really …
I wanted to share a few messages that have come through recently, because they pretty much sum up what actually works.
