Ladies lets go makeup free!
Listening to my favourite perth radio this morning Lisa Paul and Baz on 92.9 I heard that they were talking about ladies/girls feeling pressure to wear makeup or not feeling confident and wearing it to the gym. Ladies just letting you know you are all beautiful in different ways so no need for the makeup! Im not going to say I have never felt the pressure of having to wear makeup. This has been an on going issue for me, as a 14 15 year old girl it started I felt like I wasnt pretty enough so turned to makeup and oh im telling you turning to makeup, WORST FREAKING MISTAKE EVER. When I wasnt wearing makeup I thought I was totally ugly. This problem went on for so many years. Until my nonno passed away and I learnt what was important in life not worrying about how pretty you are. Now I feel comfortable in not wearing any makeup and my boyfriend of 2 years has made this an easier journey before. I know people who dont like wearing no makeup in front of there boyfriend or husband thats just wrong. GIRLS YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. Girls wearing makeup to the gym is just gross your there to get hot and sweaty not look pretty. Sometimes because im a personal trainer I will do a workout in the gym once im done work and I have makeup on That a new story I understand that people have work. So Lisa Paul and Baz have organised a makeup free day tomorrow so be a part of it like I am and go NO MAKEUP! Xx Jessica

Outdoor Workout
You dont need no fancy gym to workout! You guys have no clue about how many times of heard someone say "I havent worked out before because I dont have the money to afford going to a gym". THAT IS AN EXCUSE! you dont need a damn gym! To be honest I 100% prefer being outdoors doing a workout than being in a gym and guess what its free! With my clients I dont train them everyday so I somedays take them outdoors and do and outdoor workout with them so they dont slack off when im not training them! I love a good morning beach run its one of my favourite things to do on a Saturday or Sunday I love waking up getting my workout gear on and going for a bare foot run on the beach with my music playing. Somedays I wakeup early and run and watch the sunrise come up on the beach. With myself and with clients I like to go to the closet park and do an old school hardcore workout including sprints,situps,pushups,burpies and at home and at the gym I workout we have sandbags so I include them in the workout, OH and cant forget the good old dreaded army crawl crowd fave uhhh not! Another type of workout is a boxing workout pick up a set of boxing gloves and you need a workout partner for this, My partner is usally my boyfriend who does boxing sessions at least 2x a week! So he is great to set up workouts for me and motivate me I suggest you chose someone really motivating! I get my boyfriend to hold the gloves for me why I punch. I do this at my local park but its easy enough to do it in your backyard. When I do this with clients and with my boyfriend I include other exercises as well such as pushups ect. I love including leg kicks as well great for toning the leg. Cycling is fun and great workout I love to do it with a group of clients or a group of friends. Somethong that I do sometimes is ride a few kms get off and do 15 burpies and repeat a few times changing the exercise every time, good to change it up. These are only a few suggestions so get active no excuses! Xx Jessica

The issues of life STAY STRONG
Something I tell my clients my family friends and my young cousins is you have to believe in yourself and put yourself first and be truly happy with yourself, its so important. I had the hardest time with this I appeared like i was cool and fine but I have always put so much pressure on myself its just how I am. As a kid I was good and running and in our athletics carnivals I had my peers expect me to go out and smash it my family, my dad would get me out running 3x a week this was with sports training as well so I was fit, he pushed me he gave me tips he believed in me he was my biggest motivator. He just wanted me to win and as much as this being a great thing it added to the pressure he did the same with my sister and brother who were good at swimming. Before a race as small as 100m sprint I would feel sick I couldnt sit still a few times I cried im a passionate and emotional person and I put that into what ever I did. I still had self doubt I couldnt stand at the line and say to myself common do your best I always had the thought of loosing. I drill into everyone close to me that you can do it nothing can stop you. It felt like the end of the world when I lost a 400m race everyone was expecting me to win mum dad but i came 3rd I was devostated I started crying I felt sick but at this moment I thought this is good I have only lost a few races im a good runner I lost so what I gained confidence in myself I went up to the girl who came first and congratulated her. It was like a switch had switched and I felt proud and dad was still proud. Im so competitive still and i still do have some self doubt issues but it has improved im no sore loser anymore I tell people not to be a sore loser be happy with what you come its not the end of the world.

It aint easy
Changing a lifestyle is hard you are changing what you are use to, changing from a lifestyle that includes unhealthy foods and limited exercise to healthy eating and exercising reguarly is a big change. People who start this find it hard to keep motivated and thats why I think you should have a personal trainer to keep you on track, of course some people dont have that money. You need to get information if your not going to have a personal trainer know the foods that are good for you know what to stay away from find out what exercises are good for parts of the body. You need to cook basic foods if you are unsure of dishes to make cook raw vegies always safe also add lots of colours and make you eat your greens. Eating healthy and working out can be hard but think its your life depending on it. If you dont have a PT do it with a friend or a family member that is sure to keep you motivated. Its hard it can be hell but its doing your body good. So never ever give up xx Jessica
