HYROX training starts NOW 😬 12 weeks until I take HYROX training starts NOW 😬

12 weeks until I take on my first HYROX Solo… and today was my first run in 9 MONTHS.

The good news? I’m now 2 stone lighter and the run actually felt surprisingly good 🙌

The bad news? My heart rate would suggest otherwise 😂 What should have been an easy run had me sitting in Zone 4 and 5. Eeeeek.

So the goal over the next 12 weeks isn’t just to get HYROX fit. I want to build my aerobic fitness back up and get to the point where I can actually go out for an easy run and stay in Zone 2.

Right now, that feels like a long way off… but we all have to start somewhere.

12 weeks. HYROX Solo. Let’s see what we can do 💪

Follow along for the journey — I’ll be sharing the training, the progress and probably a fair bit of suffering along the way 😂

I’ve been seeing Spacegoods everywhere lately, so I’ve been seeing Spacegoods everywhere lately, so I decided to buy it with my own money and find out whether it’s actually worth it… or just another expensive wellness trend.

After using Rainbow Dust for months and testing Astro Dust too, I’m sharing my honest thoughts.

Has it replaced the foundations of good nutrition, strength training and sleep? Absolutely not.

But has it genuinely helped me feel more focused during the day and supported my evening wind-down routine? Yes.

This isn’t sponsored, just my honest experience after putting it to the test over a few moths and multiple purchases

Comment “SPACE” and I’ll send you the link to my full review, where I break down the ingredients, the science and whether I think it’s actually worth your money.
If you've been seeing **Spacegoods Rainbow Dust** If you've been seeing **Spacegoods Rainbow Dust** and **Astro Dust** all over your social media like I have, you might be wondering if they're actually worth the hype... or just another expensive wellness trend.

So, of course I bought them so you don't have to so I share my thoughts this coffee alternative.

In my latest review, I take a deep dive into:
✔️ What adaptogens actually are
✔️ The science behind the key ingredients
✔️ Whether Rainbow Dust really gives smoother energy without the jitters
✔️ My experience with Astro Dust for sleep
✔️ The pros, the cons and whether I think they're worth buying
As always, this **isn't a sponsored review**—just my honest opinion after months of use.

I'd love to know... have you tried Spacegoods, or are you tempted to give it a go? Let me know your thoughts below! 👇
If you’re using a GLP-1, please don’t make the mis If you’re using a GLP-1, please don’t make the mistake of thinking the medication is the whole plan.

Yes, it can help with appetite, food noise and fat loss… but if you want the best chance of keeping the weight off when you eventually come off it, you need to use this phase to build the habits that support that too.

For me, one of the biggest pieces of that is strength training.

Because this isn’t just about getting smaller while the medication is helping.
It’s about protecting muscle, supporting your metabolism, improving body composition and building a body that’s stronger and more resilient long term.

If you’re on a GLP-1, don’t just focus on the scales going down.
Think about what’s going to help you maintain those results later too.

Are you strength training alongside it? 👇

Most women over 40 focus on the number on the scal Most women over 40 focus on the number on the scales...

But if your goal is to stay strong, active and independent for decades to come, there are far more important numbers to pay attention to.

In my latest video, I share 6 simple fitness tests over 40 that assess your strength, mobility, balance, power and cardiovascular fitness. These are all areas linked to healthy ageing and longevity.

The best part? You can do these tests yourself and quickly identify where you might need to focus your training.

I took all six myself... and I didn't pass every one! 👀

💬 Comment "LIVE" below and I'll send you the link to watch the full video and see how many you can pass.

How many out of 6 do you think you'd get? 💪

There isn’t a single area of your life that won’t There isn’t a single area of your life that won’t improve when you become fitter, stronger and more mobile.

More energy to keep up with your kids.
More confidence in your own skin.
Less aches and pains.
More independence as you get older.
More resilience when life throws challenges your way.

We often think fitness is just about weight loss or how we look, but the real benefits run much deeper than that.

Every workout is an investment in your future self.

The stronger you become, the easier life becomes.

Keep showing up. Your body, mind and future self will thank you for it.

Strength helps you build muscle. Mobility helps y Strength helps you build muscle.

Mobility helps you keep moving.

As I get older, I’m realising that both matter equally.

A strong body is great, but if you’re stiff, achy and afraid to move, you’re missing a huge piece of the longevity puzzle.

A few minutes of mobility work each day might not feel exciting, but your future self will thank you for it.

Do you currently include mobility work in your routine? 👇

Everyone seems to want a Peloton… but not everyone Everyone seems to want a Peloton… but not everyone wants to spend £1,600 on an exercise bike.

So I decided to see what a budget exercise bike for home could offer instead.

I’ve been testing the Merach Exercise Bike for the last few weeks and honestly, I wasn’t expecting to be as impressed as I am.

✔️ Quiet to ride
✔️ Comfortable seat
✔️ Bluetooth connectivity
✔️ Compatible with workout apps
✔️ Less than £200

Is it going to compete with the premium bikes? Probably not.

But if you’re looking for a budget exercise bike for home workouts, want to improve your fitness, lose weight, or simply move more without leaving the house, it offers incredible value for money.

I’ve just uploaded my full Merach Exercise Bike Review where I share everything I liked, what could be improved, and whether I think it’s worth buying.

Designed as nutritional support on your health journey
This might not be the popular message… but it’s th This might not be the popular message… but it’s the truth.

Training is incredibly important. It helps us build strength, maintain muscle, improve mobility, support our metabolism and stay capable for all the things we want to do in life.

But if your goal is fat loss or changing the way your body looks, you cannot out-train your diet.

One of the biggest things being on Mounjaro has reminded me of is that I wasn’t necessarily eating the wrong foods… I was simply eating too much.

A few too many snacks.
Portions that were a little too big.
A glass of wine that became two.

Nothing extreme. Just enough to keep me from maintaining a leaner body composition.

Since starting my GLP-1 journey I’ve naturally reduced my portion sizes, stopped mindless snacking and cut back on alcohol. The result? The weight is finally moving.

Not because I’m training harder.
Not because I’ve found a magic solution.
But because my calorie intake is finally matching what my body actually needs.

Keep lifting weights.
Keep moving your body.
Keep working on your fitness.

But don’t underestimate the impact of nutrition.

You build the body with training. You reveal it with nutrition.

Have you ever realised that your portions were bigger than you thought they were? Let me know below 👇

We naturally stop doing explosive movements as we We naturally stop doing explosive movements as we get older.
Jumping. Sprinting. Moving quickly. Reacting fast.

But that’s actually one of the reasons we start to feel older physically.

One of the first things to decline in midlife is power… and that’s not just about sport or performance. It affects balance, reactions, mobility, strength and even confidence in your body.

This is why I think some form of power training is so important for women over 40.

And honestly… it doesn’t need to be extreme 😅

It can be:
✔️ Kettlebell swings
✔️ Fast step ups
✔️ Light jumps or hops
✔️ Simply moving a weight with speed & intent

Build up towards doing drop jumps as per the video. 

Because the goal isn’t just to stay “fit”.
It’s to stay capable.

Strong. Mobile. Reactive. Independent 💪

Mounjaro weight loss month by month. Month 4 resul Mounjaro weight loss month by month. Month 4 results. 

One of the biggest things I wanted to focus on during this journey wasn’t just losing weight… it was maintaining muscle, keeping my strength, improving my energy and actually feeling GOOD in my body again.

This has never been about becoming the smallest version of myself.

It’s been about
Improving my metabolic health
Reducing food noise
Supporting my PCOS & insulin resistance
Maintaining muscle through strength training
Feeling more confident and comfortable in my body again

Slow and sustainable has always been the goal for me and honestly I’m so glad I documented the process because sometimes you don’t realise how much has changed until you look back.

I’m still training hard.Still prioritising protein.Still focusing on healthy habits.

This definitely hasn’t been “the easy way out”… but I do finally feel more in control around food and far more like myself again ❤️

One thing I see a LOT… women underestimsting what One thing I see a LOT… women underestimsting what they could really lift

But that “this is getting hard now” feeling?
That’s usually where the magic actually starts happening.

If you finish a set feeling like you could easily knock out another 3-4 reps… chances are the weight is too light to really challenge you.

The last 1-2 reps should feel HARD.
Sometimes messy.
Sometimes accompanied by a little face scrunch or grunt 😂

It means you’re finally tapping into an intensity level that your body actually needs to get stronger.

And honestly? Most women are far stronger than they give themselves credit for.

You don’t need to destroy yourself every workout… but you do need to stop playing it safe all the time.

Try this in your next workout
