There's nothing wrong with exercising to look good In fact, it's probably the number one reason why most people start But the longer that you stick with it, the more you uncover all of the benefits that come with it: More energy Less pain More strength More effortless movement Better endurance Better mood And so much more… It's part of making a concerted effort to be the best YOU that you can be And again, changing how you look might be a happy byproduct of the work you put in But, most of the time, it's not what keeps you consistent for years on end It's all of the ways that it helps you become a better person for yourself and also for those you love It becomes addicting It becomes a normal part of life you can't live without And once you reach that point You'll never look back ----- 🎯 If you need help with your own fitness and/or rehab journey, I can help in 2 ways: 1️⃣ Work with me 𝟭-𝗼𝗻-𝟭 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲: I’ll perform a detailed assessment, put together an individualized program based on where you’re currently at and where you want to get to (your goals), and then coach you through the process of getting there ➡️ Tap below to fill out my application form (I’ll respond within 48 hours): https://lnkd.in/gZ5Uey7B 2️⃣ Join over 2000 others in my app: if you don’t need 1-on-1 coaching but need structure, my app includes 𝟭𝟬 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 and 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲𝟬 guided mobility, strength and stability routines within 𝟮𝟱 categorized sections covering the whole body ➡️ Tap below to get full access to my app 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 for your first 𝟳 𝗗𝗔𝗬𝗦 and then 𝟰𝟰% 𝗢𝗙𝗙: https://lnkd.in/g8DHxEVC ----- #fitnessmotivation #fitnessadvice #fittips #fitnesstips #healthadvice #personaltraining #fitnessquotes #exercisemotivation

"I need to prioritize work over exercising." . . I have come across many people who say this because of their belief that exercise is going to eat away their time to make money. But let me show you how simple exercise like walking can improve your work. On the left is the brain before walking and on the right is the brain after 20 minutes of walking. On the left image, the brain oxygen levels are low and that hurts creativity and focus. But on the right image, it shows that as you start moving, your brain starts getting more oxygen allowing the creative juices to flow better. In fact, a study found out that walking boosts your creative output by 60%. And the last time I checked, more creativity and improved focus didn't hurt anyone. So, share this post with not just the working class but with parents & teachers who ask the kids to stop playing because their exams are around the corner. Hope this helps! ----------------------------------------------- If you are looking to improve your health, visit www.tanaymandowara.com and fill in the details. #Health #Fitness #Walking #Cardiovascularhealth #Focus #Lifestylemedicine #Healthcoach

If you want to protect your body as you age, then you need to be strength training even as you get older!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ We can continue to practice this extremely healthy and important habit by:⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 👉 Training with light to moderate weight in higher rep ranges such as 10-20 reps or 8-12 reps more often. This has been shown by research to be easier on the joints, and will allow you to still build muscle & strength while also building strength & resiliency in your joints. You can still continue to train in the lower rep ranges with heavier weight, but do so less frequently and further away from failure (2-5 reps away from failure).⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ 👉 Prioritizing your form and technique. This is going to vary from person to person based on bone structure & anatomy and target muscles, but I recommend watching videos, hiring a coach, and recording yourself performing different exercises to find the best form for you!⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ With all of this in mind, PLEASE continue strength training as you age, and if you haven’t then please start! ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Strength training is one of the best things you can do for your overall health and is only going to help the aging process in the most positive way!🙌⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ - Coach Austin⁣⁣ ⁣ Message me the words “coach me” for help on your health and fitness journey!

When Was the Last Time You Truly Felt Strong? I love this exercise. Today, due to my Stroke Rehab, it’s just 50% of my max (40kg), but the beauty is in the volume—loads of reps, loads of sets, and an unbeatable connection to my body. What about you? Found your favourite yet? Or are you still searching for that movement that lights a fire under you? Maybe you’ve convinced yourself that time, work, or life is in the way. But the truth is, there’s always a way. Here’s the twist: it’s not about finding time—it’s about prioritising you. You’re not just another gym-goer. You’re a human with a busy life, demanding priorities, and a body that deserves to thrive, not just survive. At SFIT, I don’t just throw cookie-cutter plans at you and hope for the best. Together, we create something designed entirely around your life. Whether it’s one-to-one sessions or an elite bespoke online programme, you’ll get a plan tailored to your schedule, goals, and abilities—with a money-back guarantee to back it up. You don’t need to settle for “good enough” anymore. Health and fitness aren’t luxuries—they’re the foundation of everything you want to achieve. Let’s make sure your body isn’t holding you back; let’s make it your greatest weapon. DM me or click the link in bio to start rewriting your story. It’s not about waiting for the perfect moment. It’s about making the moment perfect. #TheTattooedMonk #Shrine #SFIT #EliteTransformation #FitnessMotivation #PerformanceCoach #HealthIsWealth #StrongNotSkinny #TailoredFitness #BespokeTraining #OnlineCoaching #FunctionalFitness #HighPerformance #StrengthTraining #WorkHardPlayHard #MindsetShift #TimeForYou #LevelUpYourLife #RepsAndSets #DynamicLiving #TakeControl #ResultsGuaranteed #PersonalisedTraining #BodyTransformation

WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD OF? I found this video that I was going to post in December…it’s just a couple months late. So it talks about your achievements during 2023. I thought it would still be a great reminder of keeping things in perspective. Especially since we’re into February, and many people that started their fitness journey in January are starting to feel the grind. Focus on the positive and keep moving forward. Setbacks and obstacles are part of the process. If you’re looking for a personalized plan to help you lose weight, improve your energy, and develop long term healthy habits, then take 2 minutes to fill out the training application below and let’s get started together! https://lnkd.in/e4dcB-3s #personaltraineronline #healthandwellness #healthandfitness

𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗜𝗴𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗧𝗶𝗽 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗜𝗻𝗷𝘂𝗿𝘆-𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗙𝗶𝘁𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 ⭐Fact: sticking to a workout routine is tough enough without imbalances or injuries sidelining you. And while we all have our favorite exercises, the truth is, a well-rounded fitness plan will include moves that you may not enjoy. For me, it's this side plank that's on the list of non-favs. But want to know something that may be hard to believe? In the 18 years I've been training and competing at the highest level in Kettlebell Sport, I've never had an injury. 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲. Because I utilize this approach. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗼𝗻-𝗙𝗮𝘃𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀? Avoiding injuries is about more than just stretching or warming up. And it doesn't have to be about transitioning to more 'gentle' workouts either. It's about building a balanced, resilient body. That means strengthening all your muscles, not just the ones you see in the mirror, in all planes of motion. Chronic tight hamstrings or a nagging lower back? These are usually signs of imbalances that can lead to bigger problems down the road. And they can be remedied. 𝗗𝗶𝘁𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝗼𝗸𝗶𝗲-𝗖𝘂𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗼𝘂𝘁𝘀 In midlife and beyond, we need proper programs, not arbitrary same-old sessions. My clients receive personalized, comprehensive training designed to address their unique needs and goals. The result? They feel great, look great and can enjoy the activities they love – whether it's running an 8K or an 18-mile trek through the jungle, like my 62-year-old client Reggie, without worrying about getting sidelined by pain! ➡️Are you ready to play the long game and build a body that's strong, resilient, and ready for anything?

Most people’s worlds don’t revolve around health and fitness So to assume that in order to achieve a healthy and fit body you must make healthy decisions ALL of the time isn’t just unrealistic… It’s setting you up to fail Most people in most situations would do well to practice healthy habits MOST of the time This is sustainable This is realistic This allows you enjoy the process more and not put unnecessary pressure on yourself It keeps you from giving up because you weren’t “perfect” It allows you to stay out late with friends, eat your favorite foods, and fully enjoy your vacation without feeling “guilty” all of the time Build discipline and habits into your life that become who you are MOST of the time Not ALL of the time That imperfect but relentless consistency You’ll fall in love with the process And you won’t look back ----- 🎯 If you need help with your own fitness and/or rehab journey, I can help in 2 ways: 1️⃣ Work with me 𝟭-𝗼𝗻-𝟭 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲: I’ll perform a detailed assessment, put together an individualized program based on where you’re currently at and where you want to get to (your goals), and then coach you through the process of getting there ➡️ Tap below to fill out my application form (I’ll respond within 48 hours): https://lnkd.in/gZ5Uey7B 2️⃣ Join over 2000 others in my app: if you don’t need 1-on-1 coaching but need structure, my app includes 𝟭𝟬 𝗳𝘂𝗹𝗹 𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝘀 and 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝟭𝟲𝟬 guided mobility, strength and stability routines within 𝟮𝟱 categorized sections covering the whole body ➡️ Tap below to get full access to my app 𝗙𝗥𝗘𝗘 for your first 𝟳 𝗗𝗔𝗬𝗦 and then 𝟰𝟰% 𝗢𝗙𝗙: https://lnkd.in/g8DHxEVC ----- #fitnessmotivation #fitnessadvice #fittips #fitnesstips #healthadvice #personaltraining #fitnessquotes #exercisemotivation

Chances are high that time is one if not the most limiting factor holding you back from being the fittest version you can be. You have a demanding job with high responsibilites. You might have a family and kids. Your partner deserves your support and attention as well. Reality is: the idea of spending 1 hour at the gym everyday is simply not achievable. The good news is: you do not have to spent that time every day to - build muscle - lose fat - get stronger - feel well in your own skin 2-3 well-designed trainings/week consisting of full body workouts COMBINED with an increased overall daily activity can bring you pretty far! Book a free consultation call here: https://lnkd.in/dSXKYj8B People highly underestimate the big impact normal activities of daily living can have. Take a look at your normal day and think: where can I make a difference? - increase your daily step count - take the stairs instead of the elevator - go for a walk with the kids to the playground and engage in playing WITH THEM rather than scrolling on your phone while they climb, run and crawl - on a home-office day: set a timer and do 10/20/30 squats every 45mins - et cetera...
