HAPPY 2022! The new year is rife with new opportunities and fresh starts. It’s a time for reset and renewal, particularly after festive indulgences. With enthusiasm and motivation coursing through your veins, you may be filled with hope and optimism that this is the year. And why not? The year when you’ll finally lose weight, quit smoking, eat healthier, exercise more, get that raise or promotion…achieve your long-time goals for self-improvement. However, it is all too common that our grand declarations, well-intentioned as they may be, are neither realistic nor feasible. But all is not lost—it is possible to create New Year’s resolutions you can actually stick to and still achieve your goals. Let our Fitness Team help you to get started. By getting real about your goals and creating a practical plan, you’ll be able to reach your goals sooner than you might think. We are also introducing a whole host of new programmes, challenges and activities designed to help keep you involved and most importantly to keep you very motivated and healthy. This year—and every year for that matter—you have a choice. You can do what you’ve always done, or you can try something different. It’s our aim to help you find something you enjoy and get you moving more and moving well! This quarterly newsletter will keep you up to date on all the latest news at the club, but don’t forget also to visit us at: https://fitness-services.yourgymfitness.uk/ Read on and see what you can expect to experience in the next 12 weeks at your Club. Work hard but play hard!

6 WAYS TO REDUCE BELLY FAT SPECIAL FREE REPORT
26
THE TRUTH ABOUT FAT LOSS If you’ve tried to lose weight before then your probably aware that the fitness industry is largely full of mis-information and often complete lies. For example did you know that counting calories is virtually useless? Companies literally burn food in a box until it turns to dust to determine the calories in a food. Do you think it’s the way your body works? Of course not! This small fact makes it painfully clear why most diet programmes flat out fail for losing weight – they get you to count calories (either directly or via points or some other invention) when that’s not how your body works.
HERE’S THE REALITY... Weight loss (or even weight gain) is a complex mixture of hormones, brain chemistry and habits. So to get long terms results you must absolutely address these things to succeed. Simply counting calories will not get you very far at all. At YOUR GYM we are on a mission to get the real information out to people and we want to help people transform their bodies and lives not just for 5 or 12 weeks but for life . Here is the truth about weight loss with YOUR GYM – and all for your long-term benefit! Kind Regards,
27
01 EAT REAL FOOD It’s not about calories! Slimming companies and fake health food companies want you to believe getting in shape is all about calories. Guess what? They’re dead wrong! How much you weigh and the amount of body fat is about your hormones and that is controlled by your diet. If you get this part right then fat loss and weight loss becomes easy, fast and automatic and best of all, easy to keep for life. Here’s a tip for you. Starbucks, Domino’s pizza, Ben and Jerry’s do not qualify. Before you feel too deprived though - you CAN still eat these foods and still get in shape. Everything in moderation!
02 FOCUS ON WEIGHT TRAINING It’s very straightforward. Muscle speeds up your me-tabolism and burns fat when you’re resting. This means that you burn fat even when you are sitting on the sofa. Long duration or distance running or aerobic exercise doesn’t have the same impact on your resting metabolism and only burns fat whilst you are exercising and not afterwards. The best exercises are the ones that use the most muscles in one go which means that you will burn the most energy. Here are some great examples: Squats: Dead-lifts: Benchpress: Kettle bell workouts. Focus on these or any other weight training exercise and you body will transform.
AN IMPORTANT NOTE FOR ANY WOMEN READING THIS... You won’t get bulky like a man – you haven’t got the right hormones. So enjoy the ride as you shed pounds of unsightly fat from your hips, bum, waist and arms. The key thing though is to get the best instruction on strength training safely – its super effective but you need the right guidance to avoid it being dangerous!
28
03 FOCUS ON PROGRESSION Ever found that you get to a certain weight and everything seems to stop improving? We call it reaching the “body plateau” and it’s when the body gets used to the food you’re eating and the exercise your doing and it decides to start storing fat for a cold day. The only way to keep the improvement going is to “trick” your body by changing your diet or your exercise schedule. It’s something that the slimming companies and diet books omit to tell you. You get one programme and there is no progression. Making the correct adjustments at the right time is mission critical and we make sure that our members have bodies that never get to this “plateau stage”.It is vital that you seek experts in this field such as a Personal Trainer. It means you avoid the mistakes that people so often make.
04 MAKE IT FUN Sounds obvious but if it isn’t fun you won’t do it for long ! Resistance training can be fun when done right and with a professional. But practically anything that involves lifting will work. Better still you don’t need to do it alone.We have lots of classes, options for group and partner personal training and Wellbeing Coaches available to give you advice and support when you need it. So even if you don’t want to lift bars with weights on, we can still ensure that you get the lean physique you are looking for.
29
05 STOP MAKING EXCUSES Did you know that the average person in the UK watches 40 hours of television each week. When you consider that achieving your dream body could only take 2.5 hours per week (30- 45 minutes x 3 sessions per week) Isn’t it amazing that people still say they DON’T HAVE TIME! The other key question you have to be honest with yourself about is how important is your health to you? Inactivity is now scientifically proven to be as dangerous as smoking or being obese so if you want to have fun with your grand children or really get the most of your retirement years or just avoid some horrible debilitating conditions soon, you know what you have to do don’t you? There is no greater wealth than health! So here is our recommendation: Make a vow to yourself that there will be:
•
No more excuses
•
Seize the moment
•
Don’t put off again
•
Call us
•
Visit us
Let us show how we can help you get where you want to be! The next tip is quite is quite possibly the most important, if you get this wrong nothing else in this report matters.
06 BE FLEXIBLE And we don’t mean being able to wrap your legs around your neck or attend a yoga classes. What we mean is to be flexible with your training and your nutrition. Whats now become clear from the tons of clinical research that’s been done is that the people who are the strictest (and therefore enjoy life less due to not being able to socialise) do not lose any more weight than those who are flexible. Good news we think. Put another way not being as strict or as hard on yourself still can get you awesome results (especially if the other things we have talked about are in place). So quit being either on or off the plan and learn to eat for your body type , your tastes and your goals – we will show you how. And – there’s compelling research that suggests that cheating and eating a lot once in a while may actually speed up weight loss – when done properly.
30
There’s a lot that goes into designing a personalised nutritional programme that achieves hormonal balance and is flexible so our recommendation is for you to get help with this. If you wish for individual advice on nutrition to help with mental health, bloating, indigestion, nausea, head-aches and migraines, low mood, weight gain, the menopause, fatigue and skin irritations click below to below to find out how YOUR GYM can help you with nutritional and dietary support..
