    Been Exercising But The Scales Aren't Moving? Here's Why

    Have you been showing up, doing the workouts, making better food choices and trying your best to stay consistent... only to step on the scales and feel frustrated that nothing seems to be happening?! Say what?! If you've ever wondered why the scales have been SO stubborn (even when you're doing everything "right") and how long it actually takes to start seeing results, this is the episode for you! In this episode, we're talking about realistic timelines for progress, why daily scale fluctuations are completely normal and how to tell the difference between a temporary blip and a genuine plateau. In this episode you'll learn: How to track progress without becoming obsessed with the scales. A realistic timeline for when you'll start to feel better, notice changes and when other people may begin to notice too. Why water retention and glycogen can cause your weight to fluctuate from day to day (even when you're doing brilliantly). The simple 20% nutrition tweak I recommend if your progress has genuinely stalled. This clip is taken from one of our private Squad Q&As. If you'd like access to the full episode, plus coaching, accountability and support from an amazing community of women, you can find out more at www.lornamariefitness.co.uk. ☀️ Our final 6 Week Reboot before summer starts on Monday 22nd June. If you're ready to stop starting over and build habits that actually fit around real life, we'd love to welcome you.

    Hitting the "Reset" Button, Why Women NEED Creatine + How to Strengthen Your Pelvic Floor!

    Has your fitness routine fallen to the bottom of the pile again? Maybe life’s been busy. Maybe your habits have slipped ever so slightly. Maybe you’re looking at getting back into routine and it feels like a HUGE brick wall. This episode is your reminder that needing a reset is completely normal 💜 (This is a clip from the private Squad Q&A. If you want the full episode + support, you can find out more at http://www.lornamariefitness.co.uk ) In this clip, I’m chatting all about why little “course corrections” are something we should ALL be doing regularly and why going off track doesn’t mean you’ve failed. Honestly, the faster we draw a line and start again, the better. And trust me… “starting again” does NOT need to look perfect!! We’re talking:✨ 6 minute workouts in pyjamas✨ kids climbing all over you while you exercise✨ messy action over waiting for the “perfect Monday”✨ why accountability is so important✨ and how small habits done consistently REALLY do add up We also dive into some brilliant questions from the Squad all about: 💪 CreatineWhat it actually does, why I personally think it can benefit most adults and why it becomes even MORE important as we get older. We chat muscle recovery, energy, strength and even the newer research around cognitive health too. 🧘‍♀️ Pelvic Floor StrengthWhat your pelvic floor actually is, how to properly engage it and the best ways to strengthen it through different stages of life including postnatal, perimenopause and beyond. Plus simple things you can start doing TODAY while brushing your teeth, driving or exercising. This episode felt like such a good real life chat and I think loads of you will take something helpful from it. Remember: the best way to get anywhere is just to make a start. Even if it’s messy. Even if it’s imperfect. Even if it’s just a 6 minute core workout in your pants 😂 You can listen now wherever you get your podcasts 🎧 If you’d love more support, accountability and full access to the private Squad Q&As, you can find out more here:Lorna Marie Fitness
