A special weekly round up that follows on from my post earlier this week about reigning in the summer rebellion. This week I… Ate: Some seriously good, whole foods. And I feel awesome as a result.

It reminded me why I left the place. It reminded me what I miss about the place. When anyone asks what I miss about London it’s usually: a) Byron Its ‘skinny’ (always double, post work out) became a weekly staple when my husband and I lived in Islington. The Angel branch was so perfectly situated […]

I totally dismissed intermittent fasting and now I’m one of 5:2’s biggest proponents. How did that happen? I’m really lucky to be surrounded by lots of ‘Nutritional Influencers’. I have a great network from both the sports performance and nutritional medicine camps. Add to that all the (good and bad) tit bits I get from […]

I’m taking another ‘This week I…’ liberty and breaking once again from its traditional format so I can shout about my first visit to Force Strength & Conditioning. It’s worthy of a post all of its own. Firstly a short history… Last summer in London I discovered the most incredible Saturday morning work out in […]
