Sponsor Jill!

Hi All,

Just a quick one, one of my clients is doing an amazing feat in that they are cycling across Jordan (300K) in aid of Institute of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Trust.

I have enclosed an e-mail that Jill Has sent round below, and also a picture... just for fun!

Please sponsor Jill as I know she is really dedicated to raising as much money as possible for this great charity!

TOM

Hi Everyone,

Hope you are well and that life is treating you good!!! I am in bike training mode now, did a good one on Sunday uphill for most of it!!! I think I am seriously mad!! Anyway don't know if you got my e mail asking for sponsorship for this Challenge in Jordan but if not then you can log on to www.justgiving.com/jillkelly1 to see what I am doing and when etc.

The only thing is that they want the money in before I actually do it!!!! Bit of a cheek I know so if you are planning on giving then can I ask that you do it sooner rather than later. Off to put some more cream on my "sore bits"!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those of you that are planning on sponsoring me , can I say a huge thank you to you, I really appreciate it.

Tatty bye for now, Jill xxxx

ARe you at a Weight Loss Plateau?

With summer fast approaching us and that dreaded time when the shorts and bikini's come out, are you starting to see your weight loss starting to plateau out? Well if you are here are three very simple but highly effective strategies to get your weight loss kick started again!

Change up your program! The routine that you are following needs to be regularly be changed about, a plan that aims to get you 3lb of fat loss per week will only be effective for about 4 weeks. After this point you will start to get the effect of diminishing returns. By changing a few simple aspects to your training every four weeks or so you can keep your body guessing and the fat coming off!

Change your diet! Your diet will need constant adjustment depending on your activity levels, this means that when you do more you need to eat more, but when you do less you need to eat less! Ensure that you are following a diet that gives you an adequate calorie intake for the current program you are following, and to meet your specific goals. If you are not sure how to do this consult your personal trainer!

Up your Effort! If you have been slacking a little lately then it is no wonder you have started to plateau out. Re-assess your goals, make sure that they are right for you, then Analise how to most effectively motivate yourself. Find out what keeps you going and do it! If you are unsure about this look out for my new series of blog posts on motivation!

These three simple things can be done to get you through that plateau and back on track to results!

Video: DIET vs EXERCISE Episode 1

Had to post this loved it! Great video from Craig Ballantyne! Based on a competition about between Craig running on the treadmill for a set period of time to see how many calories he can loose, at the same time he has a mate eat a pizza and see how many calories he can consume in the same amount of time.

Diet wins every time! So this shows just how important diet is, you can never account for a poor diet with the theory that you train hard so it does not matter!

FLOW

Hi All,

Saw this trailer for a new film that is out in the US, will take a while to hit the UK but looks like it is well worth looking out for. It is focusing in in the topic of water and the fact that it is a scarce resource, and the whole un-ethical business side of bottled water. It looks very alike to King Corn another must see!
