Since I launched Fit Brit Collective in the summer, I’ve been on the lookout for a great nutrition blogger to collaborate with. So I was really excited when I heard from Rosie, a friend from university and founder of livingrosy.com. Similar to the way I use exercise to de-stress and re-energise, Rosie turned to healthy…
Every plank variation you need to know
If there’s one abs exercise you should incorporate into your weekly regime, it’s the plank. That’s because it’s an incredible all-rounder that works the rectus abdominis (the muscles making up your ‘six pack’), the obliques and the hip flexors (responsible for that all-desirable V-shape below your navel). You may be just starting out and aiming…
Oxygenetix review: On breaking my rule to never work out wearing make-up
On any given day, you can take a peek inside my gym or handbag and expect to find a few staples, among which is a pack of Simple’s Sensitive Facewipes. That’s because I never work out wearing make-up, not wanting to feel self-conscious of sweating or restricted in my training. So when Oxygenetix approached me…
Five ways you know HIIT’s working
Despite the massive rise in interval-based exercise programmes, I’m always surprised by how many blank faces I see when I talk about ‘HIIT’. HIIT stands for ‘high-intensity interval training’, and it’s essentially about adding heart rate boosting moves into a workout in order to burn more calories in less time. Shorter, more intense workouts are…

*Deep intake of breath. And exhale.* It’s been a mammoth week since I last posted, hence the longer than usual radio silence, but I assure you I’ve been out digging up lots of good knowledge and experience I can bring back to these pages.

A Halloween story: Pumpkin carving and autumn superfoods
Living in London, I enjoy getting out and trying all the latest cafes, studios and activities on offer, but sometimes you just can’t beat the fun you can have at home. So when one of my best friends said she wanted to come over and carve pumpkins, I embraced the chance to relive our childhoods.…
Lumie review: Waking up on the right side of the bed
Two and a half. That’s the average number of times I hit snooze on a weekday morning. At least, it has been for the last decade. But when my first wedding anniversary recently came ’round and I learned that the modern gift is a clock, I took the opportunity to buy my husband a gift…
Quick HIIT cardio circuit
I’ve never been a big fan of endurance sports, so for me the adrenaline rush of exercise comes from packing as much intensity as possible into a short workout. This 10 minute circuit is designed to do just that – and to be easy to fit into your everyday routine, as it requires zero equipment…
12 ways to never miss a workout
You look out your window and think, “I’d hate to get my new trainers wet in this rain”. You’re working late and feel torn by the choice between a quick stop-off at the gym or settling onto the sofa just in time for a spot of TV. Your stomach’s rumbling and you’re far too hungry…
