I was reflecting on all those that I train in the Dorchester area and come in contact with on a regular basis. I would call them all athletes even though they would scoff at that title! Being a personal trainer, living and breathing health and exercise everyday, one would assume I would be an all singing, all dancing, mega-fit superstar. I would be in a league of my own, however I’m glad that will never be the case. Read More

So what does Dave eat…?

There seems an ongoing battle to carve out a healthy but realistic eating plan in this convenience food culture.

Even the most dedicated REAL foodie out there can fail in the 24/7 nutrition mission. We are surrounded by prettily packaged food, screaming “eat me!” Its looks really tempting when we’ve missed out on our 8 hours the night before, missed out on the work deadline and the cat is sick. Fed up, stressed out, we give up and throw in the towel. Or do we? Read More

I would suggest that peanut butter isn’t a daily addition to your diet, but an occasional treat. These yummy cookies are a sugar-free flour-free dairy-free snack option that I have been enjoying over the last few weeks!

The joys of the British Summer

Its British summer time. Holiday makers flock to the beaches and soak up the rare and precious rays of sunlight. Bronze bodies bake in the sun, in an effort to create that flawless tan. Bronze is now beautiful.

If you glance across a Dorset beach and happen to see a pale figure hiding in the shade of an umbrella, plastered in suncream, peering out from behind some oversized Ray Bans, it isn’t a vampire… that would be me.  Pale is now frowned upon. Read More

Eggs for Breakfast?

Have you had your eggs for breakfast? No I’m not talking about the ones with Cadburys stamped across them but the ones that are exploding with nutrition.

Most of us are egg lovers, but we have been fed a lie that due to the high cholesterol content eggs are a danger zone for healthy living. Some of us have therefore put aside this “superfood” altogether, whilst others have munched on their omelette with guilt hovering in the air. You heard what I said and I firmly believe it: eggs are in fact a “superfood”. Read More

Coco-date & Pumpkin Cookies

Try these delicious snacks – easy to make and highly nutritional!

When we’re hungry we’re likely to crave food high in sugar and chemicals for that quick fix. Normally we reach for a packet of crisps or a chocolate bar – be radical, rid your cupboards of these danger foods! Replace them with something that tastes great and will satisfy those cravings…

“Your body is programmed to protect you from the threats and uncertainties of a prehistoric world, where daily survival threats came down to three things — starvation, freezing, and being eaten.”
