P T Weston - Personal Trainer

I help people achieve fitness, confidence &
happiness in the comfort of a private gym. Maldon, Essex This wasn't always my mindset. Stop smoking. Get fit.
(1)

For me, fitness is something that can be broken down into 3 statements, each are equally important in maintaining the right attitude and mindset towards whatever goals you are looking to achieve.

1. Fitness should be enjoyable and be accessible to everyone.
2. Fitness should be balanced with your lifestyle and always be sustainable.
3. Fitness should be focussed with measurable and realistic

goals. Travel back in time 14 years and I was out of shape, smoked, drank too much, and didn't really take care of myself. Our youngest had not long been born, and I knew that I needed to be fitter for when both of our children started to be more active and not be that dad who struggled to keep up with their kids. I made a life decision; cut out the crap. And I did just that. Out went the smoking, I stopped drinking coffee, this helped with cutting out the biscuits, I cut back massively on the drinking and I started to run. The first time I went for a run I thought it would be easy, a simple 3 mile route around the village, surely it wouldn't take long and not be that hard? I got about 200 meters into it and threw up. I walked home disheartened and exhausted. I needed help and advice, so I joined a running club and learned some amazing tips and met some like minded runners who helped massively. I went on to complete 3 marathons, over 20 half marathons, many 10 mile races and everything in between. October 2013 brought a new dimension to my fitness journey, a horrific car crash, which somehow I walked out of alive an unscathed, apart from muscle damage to the shoulder area where the seat belt had kept me strapped to the seat as the car summersaulted through the air. This meant physiotherapy. However the physiotherapy wasn't working so I sought the help of a personal trainer to work with. This was a game changer. Not only did the personal trainer help with my shoulder, they helped me with my running style and overall strength and fitness, I was able to run faster for longer. I felt stronger physically and mentally. I fell in love with the gym. The noticeable differences in my body and mind through training consistently and being focussed were phenomenal. I knew that I wanted to share my experiences and knowledge with others and help them to achieve their own fitness goals by being on that journey with them. And that is what I do. Being able to help people and guide them through their journey and transformation with structured programs, years of experience and continual support, and also having some fun along the way, is exceptionally rewarding, it motivates me and drives me forward to continue to expand my knowledge of the industry and therefor develop myself thus enabling my clients to become healthier and happier too.

Boost Your Energy Levels with Exercise ⚡

Do you find yourself feeling tired or sluggish during the day? Believe it or not, exercise might be the solution!

Staying active gives you a natural energy boost and helps you feel refreshed and ready to take on the day.

1. Improves Circulation 🌬️
When you exercise, your heart pumps blood more efficiently, delivering oxygen and nutrients to your muscles and organs.

💡 The Result: Better circulation means your body runs like a well-oiled machine, leaving you feeling energized instead of drained.

2. Increases Oxygen Delivery 🚀
Physical activity helps your body use oxygen more effectively. More oxygen in your bloodstream means your cells can produce energy faster, reducing feelings of fatigue.

💡 Fun Fact: Even a quick walk can boost oxygen flow and wake you up during an afternoon slump!

3. Combats Fatigue 💤
Ironically, the more you move, the more energy you have. Regular exercise:

Improves Endurance: Making everyday tasks feel easier.

Boosts Mitochondria: These are the "power plants" of your cells, and exercise helps them produce more energy.

4. Releases Feel-Good Hormones 🧠
Exercise triggers the release of endorphins, which not only improve mood but also help you feel more alert and motivated.

💡 Pro Tip: A short morning workout can set a positive, energized tone for the entire day!

5. Reduces Stress and Improves Sleep 😴
Stress and poor sleep can drain your energy. Exercise helps by:

Reducing stress hormones like cortisol.

Improving the quality of your sleep, so you wake up feeling refreshed.

Find the Fun in Fitness! 🕺❤️

Fitness doesn't have to be a repeat of the same thing, it can help to mix things up a little, try different activities, and pick the ones you enjoy.

Here's 5 simple tips for making your fitness journey something that you look forward to.

1. Choose Activities You Love 🎯
Forget the idea that workouts must involve running on a treadmill or lifting heavy weights if that’s not your thing. Fitness comes in all shapes and forms:

🎼Love music? Try a dance class or blast your favorite playlist during your workout.
🌳Enjoy being outdoors? Go for hikes, cycling, or a jog in the park.
🧘‍♀️Prefer mindfulness? Yoga or Pilates might be your go-to for relaxation and flexibility.
💡 Tip: The best workout is the one you actually enjoy doing!

2. Mix It Up for Extra Fun 🎢
Keep things exciting by trying something new each week. From Zumba to kickboxing or even trampoline fitness, there are countless ways to stay active and entertained.

3. Make It Social 👯
Grab a friend, join a class, or participate in group challenges. Working out with others adds accountability, support, and plenty of laughs along the way!

4. Celebrate Small Wins 🎉
Nothing boosts motivation like seeing progress. Whether it’s completing your first push-up, nailing a yoga pose, or smashing a personal record, celebrate every victory!

5. Turn Fitness into Quality Me-Time 🌟
See your workouts as an opportunity to unwind, de-stress, and focus on YOU. Put on your favorite playlist or enjoy the peaceful rhythm of a good workout session.

Whatever type of fitness you find, make sure it's fun, it'll also help you stick with it, and not get bored after a few weeks.

I know what you're thinking, why is a Personal Trainer telling everyone he likes biscuits, in particular chocolate digestives, more to the point, dark chocolate digestives.

Well, simply put, I love biscuits, always have done, especially dunking them in a cup of tea or coffee. 🍪

Yes, but aren't they bad for you? All that sugar, and fat etc etc??

Indeed they are. However, I think that eating a few biscuits here and there is ok, especially if you are eating proper meals (not that processed rubbish), drinking plenty of water and getting lot's of exercise.

Different story if you are say on your ar$e all day, eating microwave meals or takeaways and not getting regular exercise.

People tend to worry too much about what they eat when they are trying to lose weight and get in shape, and why put yourself through all that stress and deny yourself the odd treat?? As long as you don't overdo it with the sweet / cake / chocolate intake, everything is ok!

What's your favourite biscuit?

My top 5 are

Dark chocolate digestive.
Bourbon creams
Custard creams
Any shortbread biscuit
Jammy dodger

Happy dunking!

How Exercise Can Help You Sleep Better 💤

Are you struggling to get a good night’s sleep? 😴

Did you know regular exercise could be the key to catching those Z’s?

Here’s how staying active improves your sleep quality and why it’s time to make fitness part of your nightly routine:

1. Helps You Fall Asleep Faster 🌙
Exercise increases your body’s need for rest by:

Burning Energy: Physical activity depletes your energy stores, making your body crave recovery through sleep.

Reducing Stress Hormones: Exercise lowers cortisol and helps your mind relax, preparing you for sleep.

💡 Tip: Even a brisk 20-minute walk can help your body wind down naturally.

2. Improves Sleep Quality 🛌
Not all sleep is created equal,deep, restorative sleep is what truly refreshes you. Exercise helps by:

Increasing Deep Sleep: Your body spends more time in slow-wave sleep, which is crucial for physical recovery and immune health.

Regulating Sleep Cycles: Consistent exercise supports a healthy circadian rhythm, helping you wake up feeling energized.

3. Combats Insomnia 🌟
If you’re tossing and turning at night, exercise can help:

Reduces Anxiety: Physical activity releases endorphins, calming your mind and making it easier to relax at bedtime.

Promotes Relaxation: Low-impact activities like yoga or stretching before bed can ease muscle tension and quiet your thoughts.

4. Boosts Daytime Energy Levels ⚡
Better sleep equals more energy during the day, and the cycle feeds itself! When you’re well-rested, you’re more likely to stay active, and when you stay active, you’re more likely to sleep well.

5. When to Exercise for Better Sleep 🕒
Timing matters!

Morning Workouts: Help regulate your body clock and boost energy for the day.

Afternoon/Evening Workouts: Burn off stress but avoid high-intensity exercises too close to bedtime, as they might leave you feeling too energized to sleep.

💡 Tip: Experiment to find the time that works best for your body.

Your fitness journey starts with a purpose, and understanding your "WHY" is the key to staying motivated and committed. It’s more than just setting a goal, it’s about really connecting with the reasons behind your desire to get fit.

1. Your Why is Your Driving Force 🚀
When the excitement of starting fades, your "why" keeps you moving forward. It’s the personal connection to your fitness journey that:

Keeps You Focused: On tough days, remembering why you started gives you the determination to push through.

2. Common "Whys" and How They Inspire You
Think about why YOU want to get fit. Here are some examples that might resonate:

✨ To Feel More Confident
Whether it’s about feeling good in your clothes, standing taller, or owning the room, fitness builds self-esteem.

✨ To Have More Energy for Your Family
Kids to keep up with? Family adventures to enjoy? Regular exercise boosts stamina and helps you stay present for the moments that matter.

✨ To Improve Your Health
Fitness isn’t just about looking good,it’s about living well. From reducing the risk of chronic illnesses to improving mental health, exercise is a gift to your body and mind.

3. Your Why Makes Your Goals Personal 🎯
When your fitness goals are tied to your "why," they’re more meaningful and easier to stick with.

Example: "I want to lose weight" becomes "I want to lose weight so I can play and interact with my kids without getting tired."

4. How to Define Your "Why" 🖊️
Take a moment to reflect and ask yourself:

What do I want to achieve through fitness?
Why is that important to me?
How will my life improve when I achieve it?

Write down your "why" and keep it visible, a sticky note on your mirror, a note in your phone, or even a post on social media.

5. Share Your Why and Build Support 🤝
When you share your "why" with others, it creates accountability and inspires those around you.

Whether you’re looking for a tailored workout plan, nutritional guidance, or just some extra motivation, I’m here to help you succeed. 2025 is about YOU - your goals, your health, and your happiness.

Are you struggling to stay consistent with your workouts? Or finding it hard to push through on those low-energy days?

This is where having a Personal Trainer (me 👋) makes all the difference. Here’s how working with a me can keep you on track and motivated to achieve your goals!

1. Stay Committed to Your Goals 🎯
Life gets busy, and it’s easy to let fitness fall by the wayside. A PT:

Helps You Prioritize Fitness: With scheduled sessions, your workouts become a non-negotiable part of your routine.

Keeps You Focused: A PT ensures every session moves you closer to your fitness goals, whether it's weight loss, muscle building, or overall health.

💡 Tip: Book your sessions ahead of time to make them a priority in your week!

2. Consistency is Key 🔑
Consistency is the secret sauce to seeing results, but we all have days when motivation wanes. A PT keeps you:

Accountable: Knowing someone is waiting for you at the gym can be the nudge you need to show up.

On Track: If you’ve missed a workout, your PT will help you refocus and stay committed.

3. Motivation on Tough Days 💪
Not every workout feels like a 10/10, but your PT knows how to:

Push You Safely: They’ll encourage you to give your best effort, even when you’re not feeling 100%.

Adapt Workouts: If your energy is low, they can tailor your session to match your needs without sacrificing progress.

4. Celebrate Wins Together 🎉
A PT is your biggest cheerleader! They’ll:

Celebrate milestones like lifting heavier weights, running faster, or sticking to a routine.

Help you see progress, even if the scale isn’t moving, like improved endurance or better form.

5. Build a Routine You Can Stick To 🕒

A PT helps you create a realistic schedule and develops workouts that fit your lifestyle, making it easier to stay consistent.

Yep, that's right, I support Leyton Orient.

Not a massive premier league team, with multi-million pound superstar players on multi-million pound wages, a struggling league 1 side from East London.

I reckon I am one of a 20,000 people who support them, obviously there's only about 4,000 who go to watch them, the rest like me are armchair fans. I have been to see them a few times, and each time we lost (2 play off finals, and one home game).

Whether they win, lose or draw, they don't cause me any stress, I have never gone into work on a Monday moaning and b*tching about how bad they were, or how crap and biased the ref was against us, like my fellow colleagues used to do about Spurs or Arsenal or Man United. It's just a game.....life goes on.

Why Leyton Orient? Well, when I was young it was always Liverpool and Everton in the FA Cup final, and that was the only televised football on TV, so I supported Liverpool.

Then I supported West Ham as my mates at school supported them. However, my Granddad always used to talk about Leyton Orient, and, if the rumours and tales are true, he played for them after the war. I think there is a photo somewhere....

And I used to listen intently to what he told me, and the stories he had to tell, and, well to be fair, I listened with fascination about everything my Granddad told me, and from then on (when I was about 12 ish) Leyton Orient were my team.

Oddly enough, my first job was in Leyton when I was 16, which was less than a mile from Brisbane Road, and a colleague sold programmes there at the weekend.

Over the years I have seen them go up and down the leagues, mainly down, and struggle to get back up, but for me it's more the sentiment, and the attachment I have with them and my Granddad.

Are you looking to manage your weight or achieve a healthier lifestyle? Regular physical activity is one of the most effective tools you can use! 🏋️‍♀️

Here’s why staying active is key to maintaining or reaching your ideal weight:

1. Burn Calories 🔥
Physical activity burns energy, helping you create the calorie deficit needed for weight loss or balance. Whether it’s a brisk walk, a dance class, or a gym session, every bit of movement is definitely going to help.

💡 Tip: Even small activities like taking the stairs or a 10-minute walk after meals can make a big difference over time.

2. Build Lean Muscle 💪
Strength training and resistance exercises help build lean muscle mass. Why is this important?

More Muscle = More Calories Burned: Muscle tissue burns more calories than fat tissue, even at rest!

Toned Body: Regular workouts help sculpt your body, giving you a leaner, healthier appearance.

3. Boost Your Metabolism 🚀
Consistent exercise keeps your metabolism ticking along by:

Burning More Calories Post-Workout: Known as the "afterburn effect," your body continues to burn calories even after you’ve finished exercising.

Preventing Metabolic Slowdown: Staying active helps counteract the natural metabolic decline as we age.

4. Supports Healthy Eating Habits 🍎
Regular exercise can:

Curb Cravings: Physical activity helps regulate hunger hormones, making it easier to resist unhealthy snacks.

Encourage Better Food Choices: When you work hard in a workout, you’re more likely to fuel your body with nourishing foods.

5. Maintains Weight Loss ⚖️
The key to keeping weight off is consistency, and regular exercise is your best friend in preventing regain.

💡 Tip: Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate aerobic activity a week, like brisk walking or cycling, paired with two strength training sessions.

Remember, weight management isn’t about perfection—it’s about progress!

Whether you’re just starting out or leveling up your routine, every step you take gets you closer to your goals.

There are many benefits on having a Personal Trainer.

And when it comes to achieving fitness goals effectively and safely, nothing compares to the expertise of a qualified Personal Trainer (PT).

Their guidance ensures every aspect of your fitness journey - form, technique, and progression - is optimized to reduce injury risk and maximize results. Here's why their knowledge is invaluable:

1. Proper Form and Technique 🏋️‍♂️
One of the most crucial aspects of exercise is performing movements with correct form.

2. Injury Prevention ⚠️
Poor technique or overexertion can lead to injuries that set you back

3. Structured Progression 📈
Progression is key to achieving fitness goals, but knowing when and how to progress can be tricky.

PTs are trained in anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics, giving them a deep understanding of how the body works.

5. Goal-Oriented Training 🎯
A PT’s knowledge ensures your workouts are aligned with your unique objectives.

I was born in Epping, spent my first 18 months or so living in Brentword, and then my parents decided to move to Romford, where I lived until I was 26.

Romford was all I knew. It had a massive market (dating back to 1247), which we went to most Saturdays, it was heaving, and I nearly always came back with bruised shins where I'd bumped into an old lady's shopping trolley (I think they're called Sholly's).

It also had the brewery, every time you drove past it there was always that distinguished heady smell of malt, hops and other magical ingredients that went into creating the stuff that made people laugh and do silly things, and then fight or cry.

My dad drove buses out of Romford bus garage, and sometimes we would go and take a look around at the buses being repaired or prepped for service. Even better would be sitting near my Dad as he drove the bus, and chatted to all the passengers as they boarded, this made me feel special and important, I was, after all, the bus driver's son. Some passengers would give me a smile, or pat me on the head, most of them just ignored me, which was annoying.

Other memories of my life in Romford; the ice rink, the YMCA, my first football teams I played for, beavers, cubs, the skate park, playing army at the local park, fishing, school, being bullied, fighting, pubs, clubs, girlfriends, being arrested, learning to drive, crashing my first car, and so much more.

It's changed a fair bit now, as most things do, but I am grateful for living in a place like Romford as it provided me with all those experiences and memories and made me who I am today.

Endorphins and Emotional Well-Being

Exercise is more than just a way to improve physical health - it’s also a powerful tool for enhancing your mental and emotional well-being. One reason is the release of endorphins, or the "feel-good" hormones.

Here’s how it works and why it’s so effective in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression while improving overall mood.

1. What Are Endorphins?
Endorphins are chemicals produced by the central nervous system and pituitary gland in response to stress or pain.

During exercise, the body increases the production of these chemicals, creating a sense of well-being and relaxation.

2. How Exercise Helps Reduce Stress
Stress activates your body’s fight-or-flight response, increasing cortisol and adrenaline levels.

Activities like yoga, walking, or swimming are especially effective at promoting a state of relaxation.

3. Combatting Anxiety Through Movement
Anxiety can create a cycle of overthinking and physical tension. Exercise breaks this cycle by:

💪Improving Focus: Activities like running or cycling require concentration, which diverts attention away from anxious thoughts.
👍Promoting Relaxation: Physical exertion helps relax tense muscles and relieve the physical symptoms of anxiety.
💪Enhancing Brain Function: Regular movement increases the production of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), which improves neural connections and can reduce symptoms of anxiety over time.

4. Alleviating Depression With Endorphins
Exercise has been shown to be as effective as some antidepressant medications in mild-to-moderate cases of depression.

5. The Immediate and Long-Term Mood Boost
Immediate Effects: Even a single workout can release a surge of endorphins, leading to a post-exercise “high.” This is why you often feel more energetic and positive after a good workout.

Long-Term Benefits: Regular exercise fosters neuroplasticity, helping the brain adapt to stress more effectively and building resilience over time.

Endorphins are your body’s natural happiness boosters, and exercise is the key to unlocking them.

As we head into the festive period and indulge ourselves, how many of you are thinking about your fitness in 2025??

Many will have ‘get in shape’ or ‘lose wight’ as one of their New Years Resolutions, maybe to work off the Christmas excess or to be beach ready for the summer holidays.

Whatever your reason, now is a good time to start thinking about what you want to do and how you can achieve your goals.

I’m going to provide you with a few tips and ideas to help you

NUMBER 1 - Set Your 2025 Goals.

Think about what you want to achieve with your fitness this year:
1. Lose Weight: Shed those extra pounds by combining regular exercise with healthy eating habits.
2. Build Strength: Develop a resistance training plan that helps you feel stronger and more capable in everyday life.
3. Increase Energy: Incorporate regular movement and balanced nutrition to combat fatigue and boost vitality.
4. Improve Flexibility and Mobility: Try yoga, Pilates, or targeted stretching to enhance your range of motion and prevent stiffness.
5. Prioritize Mental Well-being: Use exercise as a tool to reduce stress, improve mood, and increase mental clarity.

How to Make Your Goals Stick
1. Be Specific and Measurable: Instead of saying “I want to get fit,” set a clear target like “I will exercise 3 times a week for 30 minutes.”
2. Break It Down: Divide your goal into smaller, actionable steps to make it more manageable. For example, “Run a 5K” becomes “Start with 15 minutes of jogging and build up weekly.”
3. Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge and reward your milestones to stay motivated. Every step forward is worth celebrating!
4. Seek Support: Share your goals with a friend, family member, or personal trainer who can encourage and guide you along the way.

Whether you’re looking for a tailored workout plan, nutritional guidance, or just some extra motivation, I’m here to help you succeed. 2025 is about YOU - your goals, your health, and your happiness. 💪
