Welcome to the Sweat 'n' Sass blog; a place for active living, healthiness, wellbeing and that little bit of kick-butt attitude. Motivation and encouragement is what I seek to provide you, as well as total belief in you to achieve your goals. I hope reading this fills you with confidence and determination.

I aim to connect with, inspire and motivate as many of you as possible. I'm always available to message so feel free to get in touch.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes a healthy body needs a health mind. Our bodies can't work on their own, they need our mental health to be in top shape to be able to support the body to achieve its goals.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes that smiling is our most powerful tool and that laughter isn't just a good medicine, but an awesome abdominal workout too!

Sweat 'n' Sass believes that if you can't pronounce the ingredients on the label, then perhaps you could do without eating it. We should be eating REAL FOOD. Think about what you're eating and ask how many hands did it have to pass through to get to you? The fewer the better.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes that what you think is what you become and we should think of ourselves as goal achieving, PB smashing, healthy, positive, energetic people.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes success can be measured by how many times you smiled today.

While I am very passionate about healthy and active living, I am not (yet!) a qualified trainer or nutritionist, so I request that you direct your questions to a trained professional who can give you the right advice specific to you and your goals. As always, please consult your GP before undertaking a new fitness program.

Get it girl! | Kelly Rowland’s ab moves! 

1. Side Plank

This move hits the muscles at the side of your abs, which is great for your waistline.
• Lie on your side with yours knees straight. Engage your core, squeezing your abdominals tightly.
• Raise your hips until your body forms a straight line from your ankles up to your shoulders, and hold. 

2. Up Down Plank

This move is great for your shoulders, arms and abdominals. Keep your core engaged the entire time and squeeze your glutes to tone your bum.
• Start in plank position with your hands under your shoulders and your feet hip-width apart.
• Lower your right forearm on the floor with your hands flat down in a fist. Follow with your left forearm, lowering it to the floor.
• Pause in a forearm plank for a few seconds, then push through your forearms, placing your right palm flat down on the floor, and raise your body back to the starting position, one arm at a time.
• Engage your core as you return to the starting position and repeat, but this time lowering down with your left forearm.

3. Negative Curls

Benefits: These are great for building up your abdominals and working your body from a different angle.
• Sit on your bottom, with your legs straight out in front of you and your arms straight in front of your chest.
• Keeping your arms parallel to the floor throughout the movement, lower your torso as slowly as you can towards the floor, so you end up in lying down on the mat. Pull yourself back up to sitting and repeat.
