All or Nothing... aren't just songs by O-Town, Cher and Westlife (what a gay list!)... It's also an affliction that many of us struggle with, in terms of what we do for our fitness."If I can't workout for an hour, I won't bother""I missed my workout, so now it's all ruined."In this 9 minute episode I cover why we do this, the signs to look out for if you think you might be an All or Nothinger, AND... how to change things, so you can FINALLY get into a routine you love and want to stick to and make the progress you deserve.Enjoy!Oh, and rate, share, comment, drip and tickle this podcast to your friends too please!Find out more about Fitter Confident You and the different ways we support our clints: www.fitteryou.netLooking for an easy way into the Fitter Confident Youniverse?

Taking pics of your progress is one of the ways we can keep tabs on what's happening with your body on your Fitter Confident Journey.It's a very personal thing and there's never any obligation to share them... But if you do, you may well here the phrase "You look good in both..." and I want to explain why that's a Very Not Good or Helpful Thing to Say.There are 4 main reasons - and I think I may well have said this years ago, but we learn and grow and we're adults so we can be open to change.In less than 10 mins I'll help you understand why this isn't the kindness you think it is - and give alternatives to use  instead!Find out more about Fitter Confident You and the different ways we support our clints: www.fitteryou.netLooking for an easy way into the Fitter Confident Youniverse?

One of the most common things I get asked about is MOTIVATION."I've lost motivation", "I can't get motivated"... and that's ok, because this 10 minute episode will help you find it again.I run through all the things that big up our motivation... and also what to watch out for, ie, the things that ZAP our motivation, including 'decision fatigue' and how to combat it.I also coin the phrase INFINITE PIE, which is quite a thing.
