    Meet The Coach - Thea Hill

    Hey Team! We hope you are all well and looking forward to the slightly more snuggly months ahead! We are back and this time around we are getting a bit more personal with one of the newer coaches to join the Valesco community; Thea! It's always nice getting to know our members and coaches a bit more personally and today was no exception. Thea has a very varied fitness background and some great stories to tell so we hope you enjoy getting to know a little more about her over the next 30 minutes. How did Thea's early years look and what influence has China had on her growing up, despite leaving at such a young age? How did she break her arm? Why is she always upside down? What role does fitness play for her now? What even is cheer? Expect to learn all this and more. These are always fun for us because we get to sit down and have a chat with what really makes Valesco. The people! As always, we hope you enjoy listening in and we will back very soon. Thanks for coming back and have a lovely day! To find all of us?

    Eoin Everard; Mechanics, Consistency, Intensity.

    Hey team! Welcome back! 👋 For this episode we are joined by Eoin Everard. Eoin runs a mile in sub 4 minutes and a 5K in sub 14 minutes. That’s probably enough said right? Wrong. He is also the current European Over-35 3000m champion, has represented Ireland on the track, is a chartered physiotherapist and Pilates instructor and has a PhD in Biomechanics. We were super excited for Eoin to join us and to be able to tap into what he has to share. We will almost certainly be talking to him again as we feel like we barely scratched the surface so if you like this, keep your eyes and ears peeled. Expect to learn how to adjust your training to optimise for more purposeful running workouts, how to avoid common injuries; running related and otherwise, the difference between mobilising and activating the muscles you are going to use in training, the importance of consistence mechanics and much more! This free-flowing conversation peaked our interest in so many ways and we hope it will offer the same to you too. Knowing we are likely to be talking to Eoin again in the future, if there is anything you want to hear Eoin talk about or any questions you want us to ask him, specific to you or otherwise, as always, please let us know! Until next time, have a lovely day! 😎 Find us here: www.everardpilates.com || instagram.com/ellievalesco || instagram.com/jamesadiles || instagram.com/valescofitnesscollective || www.valesco.fitness

    Hey team! Welcome back and welcome to all our new members, coaches and listeners!

It’s always lovely to hear from Sofia and this time, we wanted to share the enjoyment with all of you.  How do you prepare for a 50 day row? How do you go to the bathroom on a rowing boat?

    Training hacks - Part 2

    Hey team!  We are back for part 2 of training hacks and looking forward to sharing with you once again. The last episode got lots of positive reviews so we hope we can add to that today! As we did last time, Ellie and I discuss a selection of training hacks that we know of and, in most cases, use in the hope you hear something you've not before. Expect to learn how to stop some of those classic bad smells, how to stay beyond-hydrated, how to count your rounds and reps in a workout and more.  Sit back, listen up and enjoy.  As always hearing your thoughts and feedback is always nice so let us know if you have anything you wish to share or any have hacks of your own! We still have a few and a bunch of you have shared some already so a third episode is very much on the agenda - entirely crowd-sourced! Have a great week and as always, have a lovely day!

    Training Hacks - Part 1

    Team! Guess what? We're back once again... This time, Ellie and I discuss a selection of training hacks that we know of and, in most cases, use ourselves. Expect to learn how to avoid losing jewellery, how to avoid missed sign-in charges, what to do if you just can't get on with protein shakes, how to stop procrastinating while training time and much more. We had so many hacks for this episode that we are splitting it into two, so sit back and spend the next 20 minutes enjoying part one. We love hearing your thoughts and if you have hacks of your own, send them over! If we get enough, we may even do a part 3 with the stuff we've learnt from you! Have a great week team and as always, be sure to have a lovely day! To find all of us?

    Competing Scaled with Torie Dieppe

    Hey team! We are joined today by Torie, much loved member and self-proclaimed non-competitive athlete. If you know Torie, you'll understand why we were excited to have her with us. She is here to talk about the Crossfit Open and Fitness in general from the perspective of someone newer to exercise, who had no intention of competing and who has well and truly caught the bug. This is a nice reminder to back yourself and do the things that make you a little uncomfortable sometimes... and to never miss Deadlift day. As always, your thoughts and feedback are greatly appreciated and if you have anything to share or an suggestions of things you want us to talk about, get in touch! See you next time team!
