- [400 BODYCOMBAT Classes: Two Years On, What Actually Changed](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/400-bodycombat-classes/): 400 hundred. That’s the number sitting on the graphic above, and it’s taken 2 years to get there. I qualified as a Les Mills BODYCOMBAT instructor in August 2024, after roughly two years as a participant before that. Looking back, the class count was never really the goal. It’s just what happens when you keep showing up, week after week, across whichever gym happens to need you that day. 11 Venues – That number probably says more about the last 2 years than the 400 does. I haven’t taught from one home studio with a settled rota. I’ve taught at ... Read More
- [Making Tax Digital: What Fitness Professionals Need to Know](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/making-tax-digital-what-fitness-professionals-need-to-know/): If you are a personal trainer, coach or fitness instructor in the UK, there is a change coming to how you report income. It is called Making Tax Digital. Here is what actually matters. The Headlines Introduced by HM Revenue and Customs, this will change how self employed income is reported. Instead of one tax return per year, you will: When It Applies Income means total earnings before expenses. If You Earn Under £10K a Year This is where most part time fitness instructors sit. If you earn £5K to £10K In most cases, if you earn under £4K If you ... Read More
- [A New Year Reset Not a Resolution](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/a-new-year-reset-not-a-resolution/): I’ve never been big on New Year’s resolutions, they tend to be loud, unrealistic and forgotten by mid January. What I do believe in is the reset (more than once a year for sure) and that’s something a new year does offer, not a clean slate where everything magically changes overnight, but a pause. A chance to check in and realign. January isn’t about becoming a new version of yourself. It’s about remembering what actually matters and stripping back the noise. The Challenge of the New Year The start of the year can feel heavy. Short days, low energy, pressure ... Read More
- [The Harder Side of Teaching Body Combat](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/the-harder-side-of-teaching-body-combat/): The Reality Check December has been a reality check in a different way. Body Combat in this month is tough, routines shift, evenings get darker, work runs late and social festive plans take over. Classes that are usually steady can suddenly feel unpredictable. Recently, my Friday night Combat numbers have dropped more than usual. Not seeing regular faces is disheartening, you still do the prep, fine tune the coaching and build the playlist, only for a smaller group to walk through the door. It is hard not to take that personally. Showing Up Anyway When that happens, you have a ... Read More
- [What Surgery Taught Me About Rest, Patience and Perspective](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/what-surgery-taught-me-about-rest-patience-and-perspective/): The Reality Check Recently I had surgery. Nothing major, but serious enough that after a consultation it became clear it couldn’t wait. I’d been dealing with pain on and off for about 6 months, thinking it was just a strain. I kept training, teaching and pushing through, but when it started affecting sleep and daily movement I knew I had to act. The consultation confirmed what I was feeling, urgent surgery. Pressing Pause Hearing that I needed to stop completely was tough. No gym for 2 weeks and no Body Combat for at least 4 weeks and I’ve had to ... Read More
- [Year 1 as a Body Combat Instructor: A Journey Worth Every Jab, Cross and Side Kick](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/year-1-as-a-body-combat-instructor/): When I first stepped upfront as an instructor to teach Les Mills Body Combat, I had no idea how quickly the first year would fly by. What started as a personal challenge has become one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. This journey did not start on the day I certified. It began two years earlier when I was simply a participant. Body Combat was the very first class I ever took, and I still remember how it felt to walk into that studio not knowing what to expect. The energy, the music, and the coaching hooked me ... Read More
- [More Than Fitness: Building a Health Journey](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/more-than-fitness-building-a-health-journey/): When I first started, nutrition was the driver. I wanted to understand how food could give me more energy, help me recover, and support the goals I set for myself. Taking a nutrition course for my own learning took it up another level. It gave me the knowledge and structure to fuel my training properly, and it changed the way I looked at health altogether. From there, Body Combat became the natural outlet. It gave me the intensity, the energy, and the community I had been looking for. Nutrition and Combat together became the foundation of my health and fitness ... Read More
- [LesMills+ Keeping Me Fit While I Take a Break from Teaching](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/lesmills-keeping-me-fit-while-i-take-a-break-from-teaching/): I am taking things a little easier right now but that does not mean I have stepped away from fitness. In fact this short break from teaching LesMills Body Combat has given me a chance to explore something I did not realise I had been missing, LesMills+. I have always been focused on my own classes and the latest releases so I never thought to go back and check out older Body Combat workouts online (those classes before I discovered the workout). LesMills+ is full of them, routines I had never seen before, with different coaching styles, track lists and ... Read More
- [Why I’m Taking a Break This Summer](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/why-im-taking-a-break-this-summer/): As we move through the summer months, I’ve made the conscious decision to take a proper break. Over the next few weeks, I’ve stepped back from teaching around 15 x Body Combat classes. For someone who’s used to a packed schedule and thrives on energy and movement, this wasn’t an easy call. But it was the right one. Rest is Part of the Process Taking time out doesn’t mean I’m stopping altogether. I’ll still be training, still keeping active, and still looking after my nutrition. But this is about slowing the pace, not coming to a halt. As instructors and ... Read More
- [Staying Consistent with Fitness in the Summer Months](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/fitness-in-the-summer-months/): Summer is here and so is the UK heatwave. Staying fit in this weather is not about pushing through at all costs, it is about adapting your approach so your body stays strong without burning out. I have had to tweak my own routines lately and I will share how I am keeping my health and fitness journey going without overheating. Avoiding Peak Heat Hours The first change during a heatwave is to avoid working out in the middle of the day. That 12 to 3pm window can be brutal, especially indoors (when air conditioning is not always the greatest) ... Read More
- [Body Combat with 600 Participants: Les Mills Experience London](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/body-combat-with-600-participants/): Last weekend, I had the chance to attend my second Les Mills Experience event this time in London and what an incredible day it was. After the buzz of Bournemouth back in September 2024, I was excited to see what London would bring. Safe to say, it surpassed every expectation. The setting was epic: one huge warehouse space transformed into all things Combat, The main event? Body Combat 103 and it was unforgettable, over 600 of us packed into the space, eyes fixed on the stage where four world class presenters led us through a heart pounding, adrenaline fuelled workout. The atmosphere ... Read More
- [Now Teaching 4 Body Combat Classes a Week – and Loving It](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/4-body-combat-classes-a-week/): The past few months have been a real step forward in my fitness journey. I’m now teaching four Les Mills Body Combat classes a week, averaging around 18 classes a month. That’s alongside day-time work, family life and everything else that comes with a packed schedule. It’s busy, but it’s working and it definitely helps being a productivity expert. I started teaching Body Combat because I love the programme, honestly my most favourite time at the gym. It pushes you hard, keeps you sharp and gives back more than just fitness. What’s developed over time is the connection with participants in class. ... Read More
- [Why A Fitness Reset Can Move You Forward](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/why-a-fitness-reset-can-move-you-forward/): Sometimes we all need to pause and assess and it maybe the best thing you can do for your body, not because you are giving up, but because you are choosing to train smarter, not harder, more efficient. A fitness reset is not a setback. It is a decision to check in with your ‘why’, your energy, your schedule and your physical condition, and make adjustments that support long term results. I Reset Regularly A reset is not a once-a-year emergency for me. It is something I do regularly, sometimes a few times a year, depending on what life looks ... Read More
- [One Bad Day of Eating Does Not Mean You Have Failed](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/one-bad-day-of-eating-does-not-mean-you-have-failed/): There was one day last week where everything just went off track. Food wise, it was not great. Two sandwiches, a couple of pasties, some plant based ribs, all ultra processed and none of it really what my body needed. No colour, no freshness, no balance. It was the kind of day where I knew better, but still did not do better. And I felt it later. Sluggish, heavy, that strange feeling of being full but undernourished. But here is the truth. I am not beating myself up over it. Why It Went Wrong It was not about willpower or ... Read More
- [Les Mills Experience London – I’m Ready for Round Two](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/les-mills-experience-london-round-two/): The countdown is on. Les Mills Experience is coming to London on 7 June, and I can already feel the energy building, even before tickets drop soon. After my first ever Les Mills event in Bournemouth last September, there was no question in my mind — I had to go again. That day in Bournemouth completely blew me away. We did Body Pump, Body Combat and Body Balance, and each session brought something unique to the floor. Body Combat 100 was a real standout moment for me, especially with Dan Cohen leading it (the original Body Combat master). The energy ... Read More
- [Work-Life-Fitness Balance Is Real When You Design It](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/work-life-fitness-balance-is-real-when-you-design-it/): Fitness Is a Non Negotiable Working as a consultant gives me the freedom to design my days and apply everything I know about productivity in a way that works for me. Balancing work, life admin, and my health and fitness is not just important, it is essential. That balance starts every Sunday when I sit down and plan my week. I make time to map out not just meetings and deadlines but also the tasks I need to get done and when I will train. It is a non negotiable part of my routine. Between my Body Combat sessions and ...

- [Why I Completed 11 Body Combats in 7 Days of a New Release](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/why-i-completed-11-body-combats-in-7-days-of-a-new-release/): When Les Mills Body Combat 102 landed, I knew from the first track this release was going to be special. The music was on point, the combos were sharp, and the energy was immediate. And for me, the best way to get into a new release is simple: jump in, again and again, until it becomes second nature. So that’s what I did — 11 Body Combat classes across 7 days. Mad? Maybe a little. Worth it? Every minute. Why I Went All In People often ask how instructors learn a new release, and the honest answer is, we all ... Read More
- [50 Les Mills Body Combat Classes: A Journey of Growth and Confidence](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/50-les-mills-body-combat-classes/): Hitting the milestone of 50 Les Mills Body Combat classes taught is a moment to reflect on just how far I have come. This journey has been more than just about numbers, it has been about overcoming self doubt, pushing through challenges, and growing into the instructor I always hoped to be. The Early Struggles When I first started teaching, I was riddled with doubt. Every class felt like a mental battle, overthinking my cues, worrying about my technique, and questioning whether I would ever feel truly comfortable leading a room. I knew the moves, I knew the structure, but ... Read More
- [The Productivity Hack for Your Food: Batch Cooking](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/the-productivity-hack-for-your-food-batch-cooking/): As a vegetarian with various food allergies, I’ve learned that meal preparation is essential for staying on track with nutrition while avoiding unwanted ingredients. With my active lifestyle, particularly as a Les Mills Body Combat instructor, ensuring I get the right fuel for workouts and recovery is crucial. If you’ve ever found yourself reaching for an easy but unhealthy option because you’re too tired or short on time, batch cooking might be the game changer you need. Why Batch Cooking Works Batch cooking is one of the most efficient ways to meal prep. It requires minimal effort (well some investment ... Read More
- [Waking Up at 4am Has Been Life Changing](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/waking-up-at-4am-has-been-life-changing/): For years, my Ramadan early mornings followed the same pattern. Wake up before dawn, eat something, and then go straight back to bed. During Ramadan, this felt necessary, especially with long days ahead. But this year, something changed. Instead of crawling back to bed, I decided to stay awake and wow, what a difference it has made. Waking up at 4am and staying awake has completely transformed my productivity, mindset, and overall energy levels. By the time most people are just waking up, I have already reset my home, answered emails, and completed work tasks. By mid-morning, it feels like ... Read More
- [The Process Starts Again: Learning a Les Mills New Body Combat Release](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/learning-a-les-mills-new-body-combat-release-part-2/): Every quarter, the cycle begins again. A new Les Mills Body Combat release drops, and with it comes fresh choreography, music, and a renewed challenge to learn and perfect the movements. As an instructor, this process is both exciting and demanding, requiring dedication, repetition, and a strategic approach to ensure I can deliver an engaging, high-energy class for participants. Week 1: First Impressions and Early Familiarisation The release typically arrives about four weeks before a gym’s official launch, though the timeline depends on the facility’s plans. The moment I get access, I immediately watch the full release video, this first ... Read More
- [Staying Fit and Healthy During Ramadan: A Body Combat Instructor’s Guide](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/staying-fit-and-healthy-during-ramadan-a-body-combat-instructors-guide/): Ramadan is a time of reflection, discipline, and spiritual growth, but for those of us who train regularly or even instruct high-intensity classes like Les Mills Body Combat it presents unique challenges. Balancing fasting with maintaining fitness requires a strategic approach to energy management, hydration, and recovery. Here’s how I navigate training while observing Ramadan, ensuring I stay strong, energised, and able to lead my classes effectively. Prioritise Smart Training Times Fasting from dawn to sunset means carefully planning when to train. As a Body Combat instructor, I will structure my workouts around these key windows: Adjust Workout Intensity During ... Read More
- [Why I Completed a Nutrition Course](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/why-i-completed-a-nutrition-course/): When I started my health and fitness journey, my focus was about initially getting fitter, healthier, and losing weight. Whether it was lifting weights, pushing through a Body Combat class, or getting in my daily steps, I believed that exercise was the key to transformation. But over time, I realised something was missing, the role of nutrition in not just performance but overall health. Understanding the Bigger Picture Like many people, I thought I had a decent grasp of nutrition. Eat more protein, cut down on sugar, drink water – simple, right? But the more I trained, the more I ... Read More
- [Staying Strong as a New Body Combat Instructor: My First Six Months](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/my-first-six-months-as-a-body-combat-instructor/): When I first qualified as a Les Mills Body Combat instructor in August 2024, I knew the real challenge wasn’t just passing the initial assessment, it was proving myself in a LIVE class. The first few months were all about getting my foot in the door, taking covers where I could, and trying to build momentum. I averaged about five classes a month, often stepping in last minute when other instructors needed someone to fill in. It was tough, unpredictable, and at times, I questioned whether I should continue if I couldn’t secure my own regular slot. Now, six months ... Read More
- [What Made Me Start My Health and Fitness Journey](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/what-made-me-start-my-health-and-fitness-journey/): There comes a moment in life when you realise that no one is going to change things for you. No one is coming to rescue you, to push you forward, or to put the pieces back together. That realisation hit me hard after my divorce. It was the beginning of a new chapter, one I hadn’t expected, one I wasn’t prepared for, but one that forced me to take a long, hard look at myself. Mentally I was feeling good, but health and fitness wise, I wasn’t in a good place. My energy was low, my body felt sluggish, and ... Read More
- [Staying Organised: I Created My Own Fitness Instructor Tracker](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/i-created-my-own-fitness-instructor-tracker/): As a certified Les Mills Body Combat Instructor, I’m always looking for ways to stay on top of my schedule, class covers, and track payments.

I’ll dive into the science behind these benefits and how they translate into everyday productivity. Boosted Energy Levels Regular physical activity has been shown to improve cardiovascular health and increase oxygen flow to the brain. This heightened oxygenation helps combat fatigue, leaving you feeling more energised throughout the day. Studies suggest that even ... Read More
- [Maximising Your Time: How to Fit Fitness into a Busy Schedule](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/how-to-fit-fitness-into-a-busy-schedule/): Finding time for fitness can feel impossible when juggling a packed schedule of work, family, and other responsibilities.

- [Enjoy the Festive Season Guilt Free: How to Reset and Stay on Track](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/enjoy-the-festive-season-guilt-free/): The festive period is a time of connection, celebration, and indulgence. It’s a chance to connect with family, share meaningful moments, and enjoy the traditions that make this time of year special. It’s easy to find yourself surrounded by a tempting array of foods, sweets and more that don’t quite align with your usual nutrition goals. And that’s okay. In fact, part of enjoying life is allowing yourself the flexibility to embrace these moments without guilt. The Challenge of Festive Eating During the holidays, routines often take a back seat. You might find yourself skipping gym sessions or reaching for ... Read More

- [Why the Term "Diet" Should Be Banned - And Why I Never Use It](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/why-the-term-diet-should-be-banned/): Why the Term “Diet” Should Be Banned In the world of health and fitness, few words are as loaded as “diet.” For years, it’s been associated with restriction, frustration, and even guilt. The very mention of the word brings up images of rigid rules, bland foods, and the sense of something temporary, as if it’s a quick fix rather than a lifestyle change. That’s why, on my health and fitness journey, I choose to banish “diet” altogether. Instead, I believe it’s time we focus on a mindset shift toward balanced nutrition and fitness. The Problem with Diet Culture The culture ... Read More

Here’s what I learned along the way and what you should consider if you’re thinking about making the switch.  Things to Consider Before Going Vegetarian If you’re thinking of going vegetarian, there are a few things to keep in mind:  How I Hit My Protein Goals ...

- [Achieving Les Mills Body Combat Certification](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/les-mills-body-combat-certification/): I Discovered Body Combat Every journey toward personal improvement begins with a single step, and my health and fitness journey is no exception. Awakened by a growing desire to lead a healthier lifestyle, my initial motivations were rooted in a quest to overcome sedentary habits and embrace physical well-being. Like many novices, I encountered several challenges upfront. The physical battle of just doing something physical was compounded by mental and emotional struggles, including a lack of self-confidence and uncertainty about where to start. Initially back in 2022, my objectives were modest—attend the gym two or three times a week, incorporate ... Read More
- [How I Reversed My Sleep Apnea](https://healthfitnessjourney.com/how-i-reversed-my-sleep-apnea/): Understanding Sleep Apnea Sleep apnea is a common yet serious condition that affects many people around the world. It occurs when the airway is blocked during sleep, leading to interrupted breathing. This can cause significant health problems if left untreated. Personally, I struggled with sleep apnea for years (which started when I was 18, working in a cinema finishing at 2-4am in the West End, London), and it significantly affected my quality of life. But with determination and a focus on improving my health, I was able to improve and reverse my severe diagnosis.  My Journey to Better Health My ... Read More

It’s not just the physical strain; it’s the mental battle that plays on loop in your head, whispering that you’re not cut out for this. The Unfriendly Equipment Have you ever tried to squeeze into a gym machine built for someone half your size? It’s like trying to fit a square peg in ... Read More
