Does anyone still post on here? Been waiting for a new gym to open for a year where I live, happy with what I had but this offered a better price and I was prepared to wait. Been twice and already know it's not for me, just doesn't feel right. Got sucked in by the price and promise of new shiny kit. Fortunately not given up the old membership.

With the summer holidays starting & kids being at home, I wanted to give some tips to get into a routine & keep on track. I completely appreciate that life gets busier during the holidays, routines go out the window a little, more spontaneous moments (bbq's, ice cream trips, meals out etc) which are also part of making memories!. But this is also when having a simple holiday routine can make such a difference not just for your goals, but for the whole family. A few ideas that can help: 🥗 Meal plan together on a Sunday Get the kids involved! Let everyone choose one dinner for the week. It teaches them that food is something we plan for, not just something that appears when we’re hungry. Get them to help writing the weekly shopping list. 🧠 Teach them about nutrition I'm not talking about calorie counting / losing weight but kids are never too young to learn why we include protein in our meals, why fruit and vegetables matter, and how different foods help our bodies. Get them involved with cooking, shopping, and building balanced, colourful plates! 🚶‍♀️ Start the day with movement It doesn’t need to be a workout, just fresh air, steps, and starting the day with a positive habit. Few example: quick 20 minutes family morning walk before 9am (if somewhere they can go on scooter/bike/roller blades that helps too!), 20 minutes of playing football in the garden, raining? 20 minute dance party in the lounge! Anything you get you moving! 🍦 Be mindful of the “extras” One of the biggest things I see during the holidays is calories creeping in without us really noticing e.g. finishing the kids’ leftovers, picking at snacks, extra treats because “we’re out anyway”, ice creams, drinks, etc. None of these things are “bad” and you absolutely should enjoy making memories with your family ❤️ The goal isn’t to avoid ice creams or fun days out it’s just being aware that these little extras can add up quickly if they’re happening every day. The best approach is showing your kids that balance looks like enjoying treats and still looking after your body with nourishing meals, movement, and routines!

@Simon Johnson are the Thursday calls still scheduled? I receive emails to say so but when I click the Skool link am advised it is happening in 5 days time. This has happened now the past couple of weeks. Cheers.
