Training Tip - My top 5 pieces of equipment and why

Kettle Bells
 KettleBells are a brilliant bit of kit for high intensity workout at your home or in the gym. With just a few kettle bell you can get great results. Try to avoid fixed resistant machines where you can, free weights are far better for your fixators, core and for recruiting more motor units. 

VIPR 
The VIPR is a great personal training tool that can be used with virtually anyone. I use it for clients with different goals from weight loss to sports conditioning and everything in between. It’s a fantastic for a wide range of whole body exercises that can be tailored to your abilities. It’s a great piece of fun kit that my clients use to carry out personalised programs from home with. Give it ago. 

Leavers, gravity, ground reaction and momentum 
Leavers, gravity, ground reaction and momentum are often overlooked when training. Think about how you can use these forces to reach your clients goals. For example if your client wants to work their stomach try a posterior lunge with a bilateral overhead reach. You’re going to have to work the abs as they control the posterior momentum created by legs and gravity.

The great outdoors 
Training doesn’t need to be in a gym! Try training outside, great way to motivate yourself and mix things up. Some possibilities are interval training on bikes, hill sprints act

Boxing
Boxing is a hard, fun workout. I find women love it and it’s a great way to let some steam off. Try mixing boxing with a mixture of body weight exercise for a great high intensity workout.
