Personalise your burn: barrecore Private Training
Emily and I talk for 60 minutes straight, bar the odd lactate inflicted silence when my brain can focus on nothing but the final few reps of barrecore’s trademark high-rep conditioning sequences. Work, travel, fitness, boyfriends/husbands – we cover off most topics of conversation, and still she keeps a perfect rep count. That client repertoire…

Take your workout to your local park
Blur’s famous summertime anthem talks about those joggers who go “round and round and round”, but exercising outdoors doesn’t have to centre around the same old running trail.

I felt somewhat ashamed of my Pret salad, which I discreetly…
10 squat variations to keep your glutes guessing

If you’ve traveled on the London Underground or picked up a UK paper in the last four weeks, you’ll surely recognise this advertisement. It is the controversial campaign by Protein World that has provoked not one but two armies clashing over contrasting values about feminism and female body image. Verbal spears fly from one side…
