In this episode, I’m joined by my co-founder and co-host Craig.I was sick for a week, so I sounded a bit nasally in this episode 🤣The majority of the women I speak to say "Kitty I want a toned and athletic body".There's so much confusion out there around how you should be training to achieve this.So we thought we'd jump on and chat about what it actually takes when it comes to training to change your body.So, in this episode, Craig and I chat about:➡️Why proper execution is so important and should be your first focus➡️Why pushing sets to 1-3 reps of concentric muscular failure is important if you want your body to change➡️Training intensity➡️The importance of recording your sets➡️How coaching can help you speed up your resultsAnd more!Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.

A lot of our clients ask us how to approach their training and nutrition while on holidays. I used to be in this mentality where I would restrict leading up to a holiday, then I would use the holiday as a binge, free-for-all. I’d drink a heap of alcohol every day and eat sh*t food. Then, after my holidays, I’d go right back to the restrictive diet.I don’t do that anymore, and I definitely didn’t do that on Craig and I’s most recent holiday, so we thought this would be a good one to hop on and discuss! In this episode, we chat about:➡️What we tell our clients to do when on holidays when it comes to nutrition and training➡️What happens if you go off track on holidays➡️How much damage can you actually do➡️What we did during our recent holiday➡️Training on holidays➡️What to do when you get backAnd more!Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield.
