NEW - Five minute fitness videos page

Over the past few months I've been making five minute fitness videos for my Facebook group.  I've had some great feedback - people are finding them useful and challenging!   I know not everyone uses Facebook, and it's useful to have all the videos one easy click away, so I've set up a new section at the top of the blog  - Five Minute Fitness Videos.  Pop over and have a go!  Do leave me some feedback here or in my Facebook group about what video you'd like to see next.

Summer Tone 2012 feedback

I set up the series of Summer Tone workshops as a way for clients and class members to keep up their fitness out of term-time.  It was a bit of an experiment - but one that was a success!  I've had some lovely feedback - here's a selection - thanks guys!


Hi Annette, just to say thank you for this morning's summer tone at charnwood waters, I have not laughed that much at a class before. The people where great, the weather was wonderful, it was so different having the class outside, we must do it again. Thanks again for a very enjoyable morning and also for the coffee

The summer boot camp sessions have been fab!  I have found the sessions really enjoyable and working outside has been really motivating.  I feel that you have catered well for all levels and it's been good to mix some workout with toning and pilates. Stomping up beacon hill really got my heart rate going but I felt really motivated to keep going at a pace by you and also those around me.  I would definitely sign up for another round of boot camp in the future.  
Thanks and see you in the morning for the final session.

Hi Annette,
I thought the summer fitness sessions were great. It was lovely meeting up with people from other groups and getting to know people from the Friday morning group better. I like the way that you make the sessions open to all levels of fitness and ability.  I really liked being outdoors and that all the sessions were so well planned. I liked the hand out for the first Beacon Hill session and that you talked us through it. I would have been happy to be reminded of all that just as thoroughly at the start of the second Beacon Hill session. 
See you in September. Thanks.

Recently my son and I participated in a few of Annette’s outdoor walking modules. My son 13 and myself 35 and overweight found that Annette catered for the different ends of the fitness scale (the class also being attended by ladies/gentlemen of retirement age) adapting her exercise’s for the individual’s ability. After having to drag my son from his bed on all of the occasions he later admitted he had thoroughly enjoyed it and felt welcomed by the entire group. The atmosphere was friendly and Annette gives gentle nudges to keep you moving in the right direction. I would certainly be keen to sign up to more classes like this.

The first session of the 'Summer Tone' module went really well. Seventeen clients all doing Pilates at the top of the hill...amazing feeling working outdoors with a warm breeze and the sun shining. Well done everyone xxx

Eat well and train well

Training burns calories - listen to your body and eat when you are hungry.  An ideal training diet is high in carbohydrates, low in fat with a good mix of protein, vitamins and minerals.

All foods provide energy (calories) but don’t waste time with empty calories - make sure each mouthful is nutritious. Try to eat fresh, natural ingredients,’ good’ calories if you can and select any processed foods carefully, checking the labels for those lowest in hidden fats and salts.  Remember to drink plenty of fluid throughout the day : )

Plan meals and snacks around your exercise as you will fatigue quickly on empty and so won’t achieve the best results.  

Eat and drink immediately after an endurance session.  Recovery is extremely important so rest after a hard work out session to help the muscles to repair.
