Tims Blog 2024

Feel like trying something fresh in the new year, or perhaps your workload has increased, meaning less time in the gym. Here’s a super-efficient routine that still delivers outstanding results.It’s called German Volume Training, or GVT for those who like abbreviations. I’m not entirely sure if it originated in Germany. Either way, it is very simple. Basically you’ll be doing 10 sets of 10 reps whilst trying to maintain the same load. The focus will be on compound movements. Here’s a sa...

Every day we go. Simple! She wouldn’t care if it was -10 degrees and I had to dig through snow to get out the door, she’d wait while I did it.I’ve often said that the hardest part of consistent exercise is lacing up your shoes, and often it’s ...

Mental Health Awareness week

Exercise and mental health As we move through a particularly wet and dreary Winter, our motivation might be at an all time low. It’s at these points in life that we really need to check in on our mental health and do what we can to look after ourselves. While talk therapy with a qualified therapist has some important benefits and should definitely be considered as part of maintaining overall mental health, these sessions can be costly. Physical exercise does not need to be super expensive and ...

Workplace Wellness & Exercise

There has been so much talk about immunity, wellness in the workplace, and maybe we are all over it.  But we need to learn to live with it. The word COVID is used as an excuse for many things these days, and perhaps some of us are still scared of the consequences.  There is no denying that the past 2 years have had consequences in many areas of our lives - mental wellbeing, workplace absences, long covid, restlessness, workplace stress, business closures the list is somewhat endless.
