What’s in my make-up bag?

Post-gym skincare

Going to the gym has so many benefits on top of getting fitter, among which is definitely healthier looking skin and that just-exercised glow. If I skip the gym for more than a few days, my skin looks duller and I get a collection of noticeable pores in the crease of my chin and around…

15-minute Thai Green Curry

Final Thai Green Curry

As the winter approaches, my stomach always rumbles for my favourite cold weather classics. At the top of the list is Thai Green Curry, which becomes a weekly staple between September and March. It uses coconut milk instead of cooking oils to cut out hydrogenated fats and provides plenty of slow-release energy when served with…

Hanging out – yoga’s response to aerial fitness

Anti-Gravity-Yoga Vampire

“Now whip your legs 360 degrees and land on the mat.” I’m inverted several times in a hammock and I’m white-knuckling its silky red fabric because I can’t quite remember how I got here. Georgina the ultra-toned instructor has just somersaulted to the floor without flinching and she’s asking us to do the same. Now,…

Kinesis upper body mini-workout

Cable chest fly

I often find that cable machines are dominated by big guys in the gym, and it can be hard to muscle your way in. But on my recent holiday, the state-of-the-art cable-machines-inclusive gym was near to empty every time I visited. Kind of like an open playground designed just for me! So I took the…

Highlights from my active holiday in Turkey

Sea Swimming 2

When checking into an all-inclusive resort like Gloria Serenity in Belek, Turkey, most people would make a straight course for the buffet. Food was high on my priorities too, but there was one stop I had to make before filling my plate: the activities board. I was excited to explore all the ways I could…

My five favourite at-home workout videos

September 6, 2014 by Filed Under: Brit recommends Leave a Comment

Jane Fonda video queen

Like everyone, there’s days when I wake up, look outside and (rain or sunshine) can’t quite face the gym. And days that are so busy it seems impossible to squeeze in any exercise at all! But I keep a YouTube playlist of the top workout videos I’ve tried and tested throughout the years, and I…

Slider abs workout

September 1, 2014 by Filed Under: Workouts Leave a Comment

As you can see from the video above, I don’t have a tonne of space in my flat. So when it’s time for an at-home workout, it’s essential I can do all the exercises within the confines of my kitchen. And forget heavy dumbbells or any other weights that could damage our hardwood floors. Fortunately, a…

Protein-packed chicken satay salad

Satay chicken salad recipe

Sometimes the happiest accidents happen when you don’t know what to have for dinner. My now-favourite salad recipe was precisely this kind of accident. I’d just survived a tough new workout (one you’ll be hearing all about soon) and my stomach was rumbling when, on my walk home, I was filled with panic at the realisation…

In with a huff. Out with a BOOM!

BOOM Cycle Holborn

‘Low’ by Flo Rida was blasting through the sound system and our instructor Hilary Gilbert was bodypopping on the bike (who knew that was possible?) at the front of the room. We were five minutes into the spin class at BOOM Cycle Holborn and already the pains and annoyances of the day were ancient history.…

BOOM Cycle founder Hilary Gilbert

Hilary Gilbert BOOM

A couple years back, I did my first-ever BOOM Cycle class in Shoreditch – an underground studio with state-of-the-art bikes, innovative instructors and plenty of East London character. So when I heard that BOOM Cycle has recently opened a new studio in Holborn, I was keen to catch up with founder Hilary Gilbert and gain…
