In New Zealand, the Covid lockdown period had a positive effect on many people’s fitness.

A lot of people who didn’t normally exercise suddenly had more time, so they used this time to go for a walk, a run or do some other form of exercise.

People were getting fitter, feeling good about themselves physically, and enjoying the benefits of regular exercise.

This could have been a life changing time….

But when life went back to normal what do you think happened?

These people fell away from the exercise habit they had built.

This lockdown period teaches some really valuable lessons around why people aren’t exercising and how things need to be done differently.

In this week’s video, I teach you a better way to approach bringing exercise into your life, in a way that can be maintained no matter what the conditions of your life may be.

If you aren’t exercising, you want to watch this video.

This week, one of our runners came up to me for some weight-loss advice.

During our discussion, I asked the question “Why do you think you are overweight?”.

It was obvious that they hadn’t thought about this question as they didn’t have an answer.

They looked a bit lost.

I suggested that they have to think about this and find a possible answer or answers, because it’s important to figure out the real problem/s lying behind this issue for them that may need to be solved.

A lot of people think a weight-loss journey is solely about food and exercise.

While these 2 things are important, there are often (and not always obvious) bigger problems to solve, and if you get on top of these you have a higher chance of success.

In this week’s video, I share why this is an important question to explore before you start a weight-loss journey and the steps you can take which will help set you on the right path.
