Start your training schedule before winter!

February 17, 2012/ Saul Edmonds

I hear so many people talk about getting fit during the hotter months when every one is at the beach and a lot of skin is on display.

Many seem to talk about it too much and leave getting started too late!!

Let's face it starting a new fitness regime in winter when its cold is just too hard for most people.

So stop talking about it, putting it off and get started NOW!!

Fitness, fat burning and muscle gain all take time, so if you start training now and continue the hard work through winter by next summer your hard work will be very noticeable to those around you and you will be more confident with your body and able to do so much more.

Don't forget as I always say there's no such thing as drive through fitness, its not like going shopping to buy a new outfit for summer!! Fitness is not a seasonal thing training needs to continue all year round!!

Trainers need to train hard themselves!!

November 21, 2011/ Saul Edmonds

When looking for a trainer, you need to look for some one who at least looks fit themselves.....don't you?? I see too many trainers these days (especially weight training) who are not in shape themselves!! How can you push a person to their limits when you have no idea how it feels to reach those limits yourself?? Here at Perfect form fitness, we love our training and train hard ourselves everyday, so we know exactly how you're feeling throughout your workout!!

Make sure your training takes you out of your comfort zone!!

November 11, 2011/ Saul Edmonds

I see so many people at gyms these days doing their training without even breaking a sweat, is it because they are super fit?? No, definitley not!! It's because they are not training out side their comfort zone. To get results you need to put your body through movements that it not used to in everyday life!!

Now don't get me wrong here, If we're talking weights, I'm not saying to grab the heaviest weight you can find and attempt to do the same exercise your were doing all floppy and unfocussed, or to run on the treadmill at a speed that you can't handle.

But to get the maximum results from your training, it should be hard enough to force you to stay focussed throughout the exercises performed, cause let's face it why do we train? If you haven't built up that love for your training yet, then it's purely for results, and if you do love your training then it's for love and results.

Which ever person you are......everyone trains for results!! So in your next training session AMP IT UP!! Because if training is too easy results are minimal!!

If you're walking on a treadmill to burn fat, put an incline on! If your lifting weights all floppy and unfocussed, increase the weight until you feel the burn! If you're jogging to increase cardio fitness, throw in some short sprints!!

IN WHATEVER YOU DO CHALLENGE YOURSELF!!!!

Make training a part of your daily routine

October 21, 2011/ Saul Edmonds

To Increase your fitness level, lose unwanted body fat or build a muscular physique you need to make training a part of your daily routine. Coupled with a lean, balanced diet, regular training is what will let you keep a good physique year in, year out.

Too many people want instant results......I like to call it drive through fitness, we have drive through everything else why not fitness?? BECAUSE IT TAKES TIME!!

I see many people that train for a few weeks , don't see the massive results they are looking for so they give up, when it takes longer than just a few weeks to form a habit.

Once fitness becomes a habit and we begin to enjoy it.....along come results.

SO WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE GIVING UP...KEEP GOING!! AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT YOU BEGIN TO ENJOY TRAINING AND EATING WELL...SOON IT WILL BECOME SOMETHING YOU CAN'T DO WITHOUT!!
