2. Area We Coveres • London: If you are anywhere on central London or the outskirts, as long as you can get to Soho Gyms in Farringdon, we can work together, I cover the Clerkenwell, Bloomsbury, Holborn, Islington areas of London. • Clerkenwell/Farringdon: I am based in the Clerkenwell/Farringdon area. It´s a great location, you are close to the Central london, Holborn, Chancery Lane, St Pauls, Kings Cross and Islington. There is also easy access with via bus, tube and train. I am not only based at Soho gyms I multiple park sessions in Spa Field park next to Exmouth market and Lincoln’s Inn park which is located behind Chancery Lane and Holborn Station.The good thing with doing personal training session in outdoors in the parks is there more or less unlimited space that we can take advantage from. Most gyms don’t have that clear floor space to do shuttle runs ore big functional exercises. Even though being in a gym have its benefits (depend bit what you are training for) to get fit being out door is a great alternative to the gym if possible.

3. About the Parks • Spa Fields next to Exmouth Market in Clerkenwell  is a great park. Only 10 min walk from Farringdon Underground and Train station. The park have a feel of a smaller park even though it have plenty space. It´s a quite park with a outdoor gym and a well used Tennis court. Part from during the warmer days of summer when the parks fills up with workers out on lunch it´s mainly the locals taking the dog for a walk. • Lincoln´s Inn is another great park right in the middle of Chancery lane underground and Holborn underground with just 6 min walk to either of them. The park is well used by people taking a walk ore a quick run in the morning. However it´s plenty of room and it´s a great park to be doing a session in with all the space the can be used for shuttle runs, and big functional exercises.

4. Weight Loss Personal Trainer in London When it comes to losing weight, what counts is that you need to burn more calories than you consume. If this fails then you will not lose weight. A lot of people think that cardiovascular training is the only way to lose weight. There is nothing wrong with cardio, I am a big fan of it myself but most people do not get the intensity high enough or they are not doing it long enough. A lot of people come in and jump on the treadmill or the cross-trainer and most of the time they stay there for under 20 min. Something is better than nothing however you will not burn a significant amount of calories during that time.

5. Use the time more efficiently in the gym. Do a circuit, add weights, do pushups, squats, planks etc. Letting muscles work whilst moving around will increase the intensity and burn more calories. Fat Burning Zone, how it works? • Most people have heard of fat burning and that it is best done in a low to moderate • intensity. You might even have seen some really fit looking people on the treadmill • walking slowly on an incline. This person probably works out with weights 5-6 • times a week in order to keep their muscle bulk. • Continue…

6. Bodybuilders is the best example of this as they use the fat burning zone because they would lose too much energy and kcal going harder on the treadmill which would impact their muscle building in a negative way. Thats why they can and have to do Cardio in this low to moderate zone. Plus it can help with recovery to some extent. We then have long distance endurance athletes. These guys spend so much time training and thus burn and enormous amount of calories and consequently are lean. They also dont have to worry about losing muscle mass through hard endurance training. They most likely spend most of their time in harder training zones and not in fat burning zone.

7. Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation What does prevention and rehabilitation mean when it comes to Strength training? Simply put, it is when you are strengthening the muscles, working on any imbalance in the muscles that is/was causing injury. • Injury Prevention: You are working on preventing an injury. You are strengthening and mobilising the muscles needed in a successive way. This should be done with good technique and control even if there is more explosive and powerful elements in your strength training. The targeted muscle depends on your own specific requirements.

8. Injury Prevention for athletes and non athletes:The exercises can be different between a athlete and a non athlete, for an athlete they should waist as little energy as possible in the gym, they need their energy for their chosen sport. For a non athlete they can endure wasting more energy during their exercises. Even though alot of it is similar for a athlete they usually just need to keep their muscles in balance and prevent poor mobility. For a non athlete it often is posture related. • Injury Rehabilitation:You are building up the muscles again after a injury, have had time away or have not done any strength training pre-injury. The lack of strength and mobility can and in most cases be the cause of an sport/activity/work related injury. Strengthening and mobilising to rehabilitate an injury needs to be done like prevention with perfect technique and in some cases you would start without any weights. You need to condition the injured area or muscle before strengthening it.
