Send us a text In a previous episode (132) we talked about how you could set up your own home gym starting with a relatively low amount and what you could buy in which order to train the way you want to train or to supplement the way you train and add a little extra.

Send us a text When have you ever had an argument with a judge or a referee for them to turn around and say 'yes, you're right I shall change my decision'. I've rarely experienced it, maybe once or twice in my time playing have I genuinely corrected or swayed a referee and it's the kind of thing head coaches and players are ALWAYS aiming to do in every single game. So why bother arguing? This is something we have witnessed with recent Hyrox events and Chris has plenty of exp...
Send us a text Chris is standing on the beech looking into the Atlantic contemplating what the day ahead is truly going to have in store for him. 1 practice lap of the swim and a little bit of familiarization of the promenade is the only real exposure he's had to the grueling course that lies ahead! The task in front of him truly is like nothing else he has EVER experienced, let's dive into it and explore what Chris was thinking, feeling, regretting and using as motivation to keep on pu...
Send us a text Here we go! This is part 1 of making Chris re-live his gruelling Iron Man adventure. Just a few weeks ago Chris went off to Lanzarote to complete one of the Worlds Toughest Iron Man Events in Lanzarote all off the back of ~12 weeks of training building up to the event where he had numerous obstacles to overcome... Such as... never having done a triathlon OR swam in open water. There's a lot going on in this one as we go through the build up and the weeks of training...
Send us a text Is the way you train holding you back? It's possible! I understand what it' like as an athlete, you want to improve everything all at once and it needed to happen yesterday. The clock is always ticking and people are catching up or pulling away (perceptively). But sticking to the principle of progressive overload and using a bit of patience could be the best way to maximizing results. In this episode we discuss a few strategies around HOW you can structure your trai...
Send us a text Hello and welcome to The Lenko Show in this episode we are checking in a little bit more with performance nutrition. Earlier in the week before this we held a nutrition coaching session for our clients and this was all about eating like an athlete and managing your nutrition with a more serious mindset. There are a significant number of people training who are not fueling appropriately for their workouts! Don't be that athlete! Fuel for your workout and then concent...
Send us a text Pulling no punches, first off we aren't medical professionals and we are not dishing out medical advice so please don't hop on our backs about that. We spend the main chunk of this episode talking through a Q and A I had with a Dr on Instagram about the effects of Ozempic. Underlying fact of the matter is that the benefits by far outweigh the risks and there is a lot of data available on both sides. As personal trainers and health professionals our opinion is that no matt...

Send us a text I would like to start this one by saying that during this episode I share an invite to our monthly Elite Performance call where we will be going through go setting and breaking through to the process of creating new habits to achieve the results you truly desire.
