Leon Knight - Personal Trainer

"Hi, I'm Leon Knight, a British Personal Trainer highly experienced and certified through REPs UK and the European Health and Fitness Association.

I’ll give you a clue…

Take a look in the mirror 🪞

𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘵’𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘸𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘣𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘣𝘺 𝘥𝘢𝘺.

Whether that’s physically, mentally or spiritually. Change comes from within, so we should always really try to refrain from external influences.

Easier said than done right?

Especially in this day and age of social media, and what is and isn’t perceivably acceptable!

There is and always will be one of you, and we only get one life to live. We should be wanting to do everything in our power to raise our levels with every new day.

And where do we start?

This could be getting better at our chosen craft, doing more of the things we love, building knowledge, improving general health, being kinder to others (and to ourselves)… 📝

The list goes on but you get where I’m coming from, right?

Even the word competition, I detest it! To be honest, I only stuck it in the heading to gain traction! 😂

If your goal can just be to be better than the person looking right back at you on a daily basis, then life is moving in the right direction 💯

There are gonna be days (well, more days than you think) when the easy option seems more attractive.

When it comes to getting in the gym and smashing out today’s workout, that easy impulse has a knack of showing up more than you’d like! 🙈

🗣 “If I just check those emails before I get changed”

🗣 “Oooh what’s this latest 10 minute video from my favorite YouTuber”

🗣 “Ahh my daughter/son is just too irresistible to not play with right now!”

Yes, all of these things we tell ourselves, important or not, have a knack of getting in the way of our progress and self care.

We can do all these things and a 𝘞𝘏𝘖𝘓𝘌 𝘓𝘖𝘛 𝘔𝘖𝘙𝘌, 𝗮𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 we stick to the plans we’re personally setting ourselves on a daily basis.

So how do we overcome the temptation of the easy way out? 🤨

Through discipline and 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 alone!

Hard work doesn’t happen without discipline, and hard work done ‘the right way’ over and over again will eventually reap the rewards you set out to achieve 💯

So when that voice in your head calls out…

“Leon it’s okay to miss today, don’t worry about it, you take it easy there’s always tomorrow” 😈

We stamp that fire out! 🔥✋🏽

And never stop thinking about all the wins physically, mentally and emotionally when it comes to living your life on your terms, and continuing to forge powerful relationships with the people that matter ❤️

Where would I be in this world without my precious family
❤️💖❤️💙

Such a special feeling to be able to hug you all every day 🤗🥰

Love you all to the moon and stars ✨😘

𝗜𝗙 𝗪𝗘 𝗖𝗢𝗨𝗟𝗗 𝗧𝗨𝗥𝗡 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞 𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘❗ 🕰

Imagine if we all had the capabilities to hop aboard a time machine and jump right back to being a toddler all over again! 👶🏽

Or better still, what top 3 lessons would you pass onto your children when it comes to mental and physical health?

Here’s mine 📃

1️⃣ Learn about food and cooking; and I mean ‘real food’ grown from mother earth, not this toxic processed crap they plug on tv, magazines, billboards, etc which become ‘the norm’ to most of us when we age!

Learning to cook doesn't mean you need to be Gordon Ramsey! Just learn the basics, and no, not f****n beans on toast! 🙈

Keep it simple, boil veggies and rice. Oven bake potatoes and various meats. Prepare eggs, whether that’s boiled, poached, scrambled or omelettes. Or how about a homemade spag bol or curry, yummm! 😋

When you're confident about prepping your own meals, you can then put your own spin on it and you actually know what’s going in your food.

2️⃣ Learn how to really exercise! Which is something we’re not ‘really’ taught in school.

Okay yeh we have PE in the UK! But seriously, what do we really remember in PE? Except doing laps of a field in the pouring down rain, that’s if you’re from up north anyway!

We play the usual football, a little rugby, the odd gymnastics-like-move, or a few athletics events, especially when it’s the run up to sports day!

The thing is, we’re not taught how to achieve and demand the best from our bodies. Lessons in biomechanics, how our body moves, the muscles in our physique, the mind-muscle connection, body type, and so on.

3️⃣ Learn martial arts; become a master of one or many.

And no not so you can go around kicking the living 💩 out of everyone who’s done you wrong, although wouldn’t that be sweet! 😂

Learning the arts from a young age can set you up to be a master of discipline, build a tough mental attitude, a dedication to hard work, and give you a confidence which is literally unbreakable.

🔑 These are super important and should be staples in our school education.

They will put you in good stead to achieving what you set out to do in later life 🙌🏽

So I’ve not posted here for a while (ashamedly admitting!)

As a lot of you probably know, my amazing wife recently gave birth to our beautiful twins Koah and Laena 💙💖

When I say “It’s a life changing experience!”

This is one hell of an understatement! 🤯

The last month has been such an unbelievable rollercoaster of love, emotions and sleepless nights!!

And for anyone who’s a parent you will know exactly what I’m talking about, especially parents of twins!!

This stuff is hard man!!!

When I woke up this morning I noticed a ‘worrying’ ever growing hole in my daily diary to-do list.

There’s been a constant filthy red cross next to SMP for the last month or so! ❌

Yeh that stands for ‘social media post’

Now I could go into more detail why exactly I’ve not been posting and make all the excuses in the world, but I’m not going to do that!

I simply haven't been on the ball and not in the head space for it.

Am I disappointed in myself? Hell yeah I am!

Does that make me a bad person or a failure? No, of course not.

It’s not the end of the world, I’ve just gotta get back on the horse again!

In any situation we’ve always got to look for any positives…

1. Kayleigh and I have 2 new beautiful humans in our lives.
2. Mother and babies are healthy and happy.
3. I’m spending precious time with them at such a tender age.
4. Our family bond is growing stronger every day.
5. We’ve had so much help and kindness from our friends and family.
6. I’ve managed to professionally service all my 1:1 private clients throughout.
7. I’ve kept a sharp eye on my health and fitness, and remained consistent in the gym.
8. I can now give advice about what it takes to be a Dad in shape!
9. I can change a nappy in 2.7 seconds flat! Haha! Nah not just yet!

I suppose my point is we’re human and we’re allowed to fall off the horse every now and then, 𝙖𝙨 𝙡𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙖𝙨 𝙬𝙚 𝙙𝙤 𝙜𝙚𝙩 𝙗𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙤𝙣.

That doesn’t make us a lesser person, and we have nobody else to let down or answer to but ourselves.

As a wise man once said "It gets easier. Every day it gets a little easier. But you gotta do it every day, that's the hard part."

𝗧𝗢…

𝗛𝗜𝗧 𝗬𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗛𝗬𝗗𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗧 💧

Keep up with your fruit and vegetable intake.

These have a high water content and can be a great option for keeping you hydrated

Whether your daily water target is 2, 3 or 4 litres

We all do get bored of constantly drinking water throughout the day, 𝘤’𝘮𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘥𝘮𝘪𝘵 𝘪𝘵?! 😉

I particularly like to scran on the likes of grapefruit, oranges, strawberries, pineapple, apples and watermelon. A fruit cocktail is always a winner too! 🙌🏽

Not forgetting a mound of greek yoghurt and a squeeze of date syrup to top it off! A great snack 😋

A variety of fruits and veggies contain magnesium, potassium and salt, so say “bye bye” to fatigue and headaches if you manage to keep your intake regular.

Implement this tip today!

This is a common statement which can be thrown around a lot!

Let 𝘮𝘦 ask 𝘺𝘰𝘶 a question; “𝘈𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘶𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘯?”

A lot of us, this includes me in the past, think that just showing up for that gym workout, a specific meal time, or for that leisurely jog in the evening is gonna reap the rewards no matter what.

We think that the results are linear, and if we show up for most of the time then Bob’s your uncle and we’ve cracked it!

It doesn’t actually work like that.

Here’s a few examples of what I mean…

📝 You’re in the gym just going through the motions 🦥

You’re there in body but not in spirit. Stop daydreaming, waiting for that reply to your message, or anticipating the next song on your playlist.

If you’re following your program the only thing that should be on your mind is how you’re gonna tackle the next set. Go get it! 🔥

📝 You’re not eating exactly what you’re supposed to be eating 🤥

Are you actually cooking all your meals? Do you know exactly what ingredients are in there? What about portion size?

Most would say no, reason being something else would take precedence and you’d take the easy option ie take out, eat out, or have a family member/friend cook for you.

This is not following a nutrition plan.

📝 5 hours a night is not 8 hours 🛌

Quality sleep is so important for all of us if we’re expecting to perform in our daily lives.

If we’re lacking in this office then the whole department falls down! In fact we’re already defeated from the off!

Quality sleep gives us the best chance of a successful day so be sure to monitor it if you want to consistently improve overall.

The road to self improvement is a tough one, and can be rocky at times.

However if you stick to a well structured plan, then the tough times are a lot more manageable and the results are actually reachable 💯
