TRAINING
NUTRITION
At Get Lifting we believe that to get long-term results you need commitment and consistent action in three core areas of your life - not crash diets and quick fixes.
The 3 core areas we guide and educate our clients on are:
LIFESTYLE
NUTRITION
Nutrition plays a vital role in your weight-loss journey!
We already know what you’re thinking - but don’t panic...
…Chicken, rice and broccoli three times a day isn’t on our menu.
Nutrition is an area where a lot of people struggle.
There is a lot of misinformation out there and we are often led to believe that certain foods are good or bad for us. This can lead to cutting out essential nutrients or overloading on unnecessary supplements which is something we look to educate you on from day one.
​
At Get Lifting we passionately believe that nutrition shouldn’t be about extremes.
There are no fad diets, no drastic calorie or macronutrient reductions, just simple and sustainable changes that are tailored to your goals - whatever they may be.
We understand that your life is busy.
We know what it's like to get in late and reach for the easiest thing in the fridge.
Whatever your current barriers are, we work to help make your diet more lifestyle-proof, only making recommendations which suit your preferences and pace of life.
We are not here to tell you what you can and can't eat! Instead, we empower you with the knowledge to make your own nutritional choices with confidence.
We use a series of simple but effective tools to help guide and educate you on nutrition. From our client welcome pack, restaurant eating guides and nutrition logs to the integration of apps such as MyFitnessPal, we give you everything you need to crush your nutrition every day, and quickly work around any blips!
​
We like to keep it simple - what use are great processes if they are too complicated to follow?
TRAINING
Have you ever walked into a gym and thought 'I don’t want to be here - I really don’t know what I'm doing!'
If you're anything like I was once, or like most people, the answer to that question is probably yes! This discomfort takes your focus away from your goals and onto the people around you and you end up exercising for everyone else’s benefit instead of yours!
Is it any wonder that your goals have been hard to reach?
We can help you change all that and we start by really listening to you and we’ll be honest - it gets pretty personal! For your plan to work, we’ll need to get to the bottom of your own resistance and limitations, before we build a plan together which slowly tweaks your behaviour into submission.
Obviously you’re welcome to go elsewhere for that awful army bootcamp style approach that smashes you into the ground and makes you not want to come back. However, there's no drill sergeants here. Just a flexible approach that knows when you need to be pushed and when you need an arm around the shoulder.
We all know that all that kind of plan achieves is a dependency on the trainer and we say this with love, but we want you to bugger off!
Success in our eyes is to have armed you with tools which enabled you to reach your goals and then not need us any more.
With all that in mind, we work with you to create an individual training plan tailored perfectly to you which instills confidence to walk into the gym with your head up and to smash every workout. And then to want to keep doing that.
At Get Lifting, we love resistance training, but more than that, we can unravel the confusion around using it. From knowing what exercises to do and why, through to how to do them properly and how many reps - the only resistance you’ll have once we’ve worked with you is the weights giving you a physical workout - not the brain games that so many people are fighting before they set foot in a gym.
We know with so many variables that gyms and training plans can be intimidating, which is why we have such a flexible approach tailored to your preferences:
-
One-to-one training sessions in the gym,
-
Group training sessions in the gym,
-
Group or one-to-one training at home,
-
Group or one-to-one training outdoors,
-
A flexible online training system.
Whichever you opt for, you will be supported and equipped with expert knowledge from our personal trainers, getting you closer to your goals with every single session - whether thats getting ready for a Spartan Race or simply building a life thats more active and fulfilling in all aspects.
Resistance training is powerful in more ways than one - so let’s get rid of any confusion and get you on track to a healthier, fitter and stronger you.
LIFESTYLE
Would you really want chiselled abs, or a dump truck to die for, if you felt miserable all the time trying to keep them?
Although you might reach your goals, you’ll never maintain them unless your overall lifestyle fits. This can lead to a cycle of fad diets, bad habits and constantly trying to reinvent yourself to achieve your goals.
It doesn’t have to be that way! I want you to reach those goals whilst maintaining your sanity.
At Get Lifting, not only do we coach you in the gym and guide you in the kitchen, but we also shine a light elsewhere to help you improve your lifestyle.
As well as making the fitness and nutrition side of things a lot easier, we can implement strategies to help improve sleep, reduce stress levels, assist digestion and boost mental focus, all of which result in a healthier, fitter, happier YOU.
We know that lifestyle is the ‘make or break’ in all of this.
We don’t want to tell you where to eat and how to spend your money. We can show you how making small, sustainable steps, can integrate your overall health and fitness into your lifestyle by providing you with the information you need to make the best choices for you.
It can be a tough process to grow out of the habits of a lifetime. With a willingness to learn, a little patience and some hard work, we can show you how to adapt your lifestyle so you can be the happiest, healthiest version of you, without feeling like you’re suffering for it.
Improving just one of these factors could have a decent impact on your life, but with a holistic approach, you’ll feel like the boss again.
Let’s be honest - if you’re on this site, you’ve already taken the first step in wanting change, so if you want to take the next step and make changes which last, we’re here to help.
