1: Hydration⁠
⁠
• Water is the single most important nutrient for health, growth and development.⁠
• Good hydration is required for maintaining healthy blood flow, proper kidney function, correct sodium/potassium balance and proper digestive functions.⁠
• Dehydration leads to chronic inflammation draining energy reserves and putting the brakes on fat loss progress drink 39ml per KG body weight of clean water every day.⁠
⁠
2: Food⁠
⁠
• Move towards a simpler cleaner diet made up primarily of single ingredient foods.⁠
• Cut out inflammatory foods such as gluten, dairy, soy and alcohol. This will take stress off the body.⁠
• Increase fresh vegetable intake for their fibre and bioavailable minerals and vitamins.⁠
• Eat adequate lean protein and fat to balance blood sugars, support detoxification and boost brain and joint health.⁠
⁠
3: Sleep⁠
⁠
• Get adequate sleep – usually 7-9 hours a night.⁠
• It will optimise your hormone levels during the day allowing you to get the most out of your body.⁠
• Poor sleep is like trying to function with the hand brake on – prioritise it!⁠
⁠
4: Movement – Training⁠
⁠
• We are built to move – however you pitch it, sitting for 8 hours + a day in front of a computer screen is not natural. If you don’t move enough your joints will stiffen, your muscles will atrophy and your brain function will be impeded.⁠
• As an absolute minimum we should strive for an hour of structured physical activity a day – this can include everything from brisk walking through to intense metabolic conditioning. The key is sticking to a routine that you enjoy and that keeps yielding positive results like improved energy levels, leaner body comp and higher performance levels.⁠
• Working alongside a qualified coach will help you formulate a training plan that matches your wants and needs in this area.⁠

Everything we do here at CoActive Health is underpinned by us striving for and maintaining robust good health.⁠
⁠
Regardless of your fitness goals you need to have good health as a foundation if you are going to have sustainable results.⁠
⁠
Training hard and consistently is what ultimately yields results but if you are not healthy enough to handle this added stress then ultimately you will break down in the form of injury or illness.⁠
⁠
All too often I see over ambitious people who have been neglecting their health and fitness for years suddenly jump right into extreme ‘transformational’ routines that they are simply are not ready for.⁠
⁠
More than likely the individuals stress reserves are already being taxed due to:⁠
⁠
• In adequate sleep duration and quality⁠
• Poor nutrition⁠
• Excess body fat⁠
• Poor hydration⁠
⁠
All of these factors sap low energy reserves leaving your health vulnerable. So when you throw on top a generic high intensity training regime along with an extreme calorie deficit then it is only a matter of time before the wheels come off and the body breaks down in the form of injury or illness.⁠
⁠
So before we get you squatting twice your body weight and training 6 days a week we must first establish your current health status and establish exactly how much ‘added stress’ in the form of training you are ready to take on.⁠
⁠
This is why, when you first start at CoActive we will assess your current health and fitness status before starting your training. Depending on your situation, initially you may need to put more energy into factors outside the gym such as cleaning up your diet and improving your sleep habits. Then as your health improves and you have more energy we will be able to up your gym training accordingly.⁠
⁠
In order to get you started on your journey towards good health and ultimately great results, first we need to get the basics right.⁠

What is recovery and why is it important?⁠ ⁠ H

What is recovery and why is it important?⁠
⁠
Having been working within the fitness industry for more years than I like to admit now I’ve learnt a great deal about the benefits of training. However Perhaps the single most underrated facet of health and fitness is recovery – In our world of excess where ‘more = better’ there comes a point of diminishing returns.⁠
⁠
I’ve seen this first hand in my own training for the National Fitness games, whereby I have been experimenting with how much training load I can tolerate. It has been a real eye opener in that all the little injuries that I have acquired occurred during periods of heavy training where by my biomarkers for recovery were right down.⁠
⁠
Think of recovery as a state in which your body drives energy towards repairing and re modelling tissues to be bigger, stronger and more functional. We only have a finite amount of energy, if we choose to use too much of this energy training and working then not enough is left over for repair and growth.⁠
⁠
If you spend too long in recovery debt then it will inevitability lead to the following:⁠
⁠
• Loss of physical performance in gym.⁠
• Higher likely hood of developing injuries especially chronic conditions like tendonosis.⁠
• A suppressed immune system so more chance of illness.⁠
• General lack of drive, motivation and energy.⁠
⁠
