Your muscles peak between 25-35. Then, muscle mass can decrease by 10% per decade!
For men, this is linked to decreasing testosterone.
For women, as estrogen declines, so can muscle mass. To combat this: Strength train! It helps build muscle, maintain bone density and keeps you strong at any age 💪

Are you working really hard at the gym only to go home and indulge? Or are you eating really healthily but not exercising?
Prioritize your goals. Balance healthy eating & training. Don't let one outweigh the other. Focus on progress 📈 not perfection 👌

Peak protein snacks! If you're trying to lose weight, it's hard to stay on programme when you're fighting hunger signals. These peanut butter protein balls are a great healthy snack to reach for and will keep your hunger at bay. 🥜

Our skin reflects our health. 🦋
We've become so used to benefiting from the most advanced creams🧴 that we've forgotten that beauty also requires a healthy, well thought-out diet. A dull complexion can be the sign of an internal imbalance⚕️. For beautiful skin, focus on the content of your plate !🥗

New gym challenge? Don't fear the unknown. I love a new training programme, but learning new exercises can be tough. It's easy to go with what you know, but remember pushing yourself just that little bit further and getting out of your comfort zone is the key to progression. #pushyourself #newgoals

Do you struggle to eat your protein? We need 1.6g of protein per kg of body weight per day. Here are my easy low-fat go-to sources of protein: chicken🍗 fish 🐟, eggs🍳 peanut butter 🥜, protein shakes🥤, natural yogurt🥛, edamame beans🫛. What are yours? #protein #leanprotein #proteingoals

Ladies who lift! 👀 💪

POV: You started training chest.

❌️ Myth: You look like a man

✅️ Truth: You look like a sexier woman because you get a natural boob lift !

Don't fear losing your femininity because you go to the gym. It won't happen ✌️❤️

Time to drop the Christmas food guilt! A NZ study shows that people who feel guilty are more likely to fail their weightloss objectives. And those who allow themselves the pleasure of eating "forbidden food" are more likely to achieve their goals. So be kind to yourself ! #guiltfree #weightloss.

Ozempic gets us to the destination but skips the benefits of the journey.
We would rather take all the small wins along the way. Will you join us or cheat ? #fitness #trainforweightloss #excerciseforhealth #healthylifestyle #fitforlife

In the winter in the UK, I am always deficient in vitamin D. ☀️ If you lack energy throughout the day, this could be you! Vitamin D is important for healthy bones, teeth & muscles. Get your levels checked, and increase your levels by consuming oily fish, eggs & red meat🐟🥚🍖 #vitaminD #vitaminDlevels

Feeling intimidated by a gym goddess?🧜‍♀️ I often feel overshadowed by other, prettier girls in the gym, scantily clad in Gymshark bra and shorts. Remember, your journey is unique. Don't compare yourself. Focus on your goals, celebrate your own progress. #fitnessmotivation #selflove

Feeling buried under work in the rush before Christmas? 🎄📚 We know the struggle! When we're overwhelmed, we hit the gym. Even a short workout can make a world of difference. So, next time you're feeling stressed, step away from the desk and lift some weights! 🏋️‍♀️ #worklifebalance #fitnessmotivation
