 We’ve had some questions about our brand new 12 weeks continuity coaching program and wanted to take the time to 'expand' on them and try paint more of a picture of what's involved and the ethos behind it.
Questions answered here are (so please SKIP to the relevant section, or just read it all if you like!)
____________________________ Who’s the program for?
—————————————-- Curriculum - What’s it all about and how’s it delivered? There are 2-3 written ‘micro lessons’ drip-fed via the app throughout the week, following the structure of: Imagine you’re wanting to learn a musical instrument. You practice solidly for 2 hours one day………then don’t practice again for another 4 weeks. Not helpful. No skill development. Vs Practicing for just 10 minutes, every day - very helpful, skill development gradually grows and compounds. The same could be said for toothbrushing - a couple of times a day for 5 mins, vs once a week for an hour…… This is how a lot of people approach personal development - an ad-hoc, one-time event. But ALL good habits and skill development (and building new habits are just skills that we’ve yet to acquire at an effective enough level). Small and often - like with ANY habit, is the key. This is the objective with drip-feeding short but regular and consistent ‘micro lessons’ - think of it like trying to ‘condition’ your brain several times a week to start thinking about things a little differently - eventually, through consistency, it starts going ‘in’ - and isn’t just a one-time motivational quote from Instagram - it becomes new insights that start for reshape your worldview on certain things. —————————————-- Cool story - so what’s actually involved ….what do I do, what do I ‘get’ ? YOU are responsible for the level at which you engage in the process. Ultimately, education is available for free on the internet. As our meal plans, nutrition education, and even apps that enable you to track what you eat. The problem isn’t a lack of information, is a lack of implementation. The goal of what we do as a business (and not just this program) is to help YOU, implement the habits and behaviours that YOU need or want to, so that YOU get the outcomes and results that are important to YOU. We do this by: a) Adding accountability with a 1-1 Coach who takes great pride and pleasure, in helping you (or anyone) to change the habits that want to change, so that you get the improved life benefit that you want. b) Organising the right information, into the right structure, delivered in the right qyts, at the right cadence, so that you follow that “brush your teeth regularly if you want nice teeth” habit of personal development. c) Helping you to come up with strategies that help you, to make eating better, an easier habit. A coach is a sounding board as much as anything - knowing you have someone in your corner is arguably the most beneficial factor. Because let’s face it, partners and kids tend not to be the catalysts for these kinds of changes. And friends tend to either say “you’re fine, don’t be so hard on yourself” (not helpful if you actually WANT to change or improve) or they give random advice they read in Hello! magazine…… —————————————-- Amazing - and who will be delivering the program? The initial rollout will be a three-way ‘job’. We are investing a lot of time and resources into this! Chris has written and created the program (as he did with the 6 week kickstart) and will be directly involved and oversee the rollout internally. The first co-hort will be coached by Pamela, and then as we move into February and beyond, all nutrition coaching will be split between both Pamela and Kate - across all programs. —————————————-- How’s this different to the 6 week kickstart? GREAT question! First up, everything taught on the 6 week program is universal and timeless. All foods consist of Protein, Fats or Carbs - and all of those 3 macronutrients can be roughly broken down into ‘green, amber and red lists’ from “whole and natural” to “more processed and less healthy”. These are just scientific facts. If you’re not able to eat mostly whole foods in mostly the right qtys, so that you are healthy, have energy, and are at a healthy weight, then the limiting factor isn’t a lack of a new diet, it’s a lack of consistently applying those basics. In other words, you don’t need more information or a different approach, you need to build better habits. You need to do the things that work, most of the time. And this is achieved by: a) Focus - which comes from having accountability (no hiding places) b) Becoming more aware of how non-food factors influence your choices and actions c) Working with someone in your corner for a longer period of time than 6weeks, so that you can work together to fundamentally CHANGE 1 or 2 things - because if you’re not where you want to be right now, it’s because something you’re repeatedly doing isn’t working, and if you want to change yourself permanently, you have to accept that a small way in which you live your life, has to change permanently. #RealTalk as the kids would say. The 6 weeks is all about “follow these principles. Let’s just get a few Ibs off and get you going on your journey”. This is about saying two main things:
—————————————-- What’s the time and effort investment my end? The amount of ‘doing’ by you is ultimately:
Side note: Incase you’ve not seen it yet, an introduction to how you can track calories and protein intake etc via the app regardless of getting coaching....... and an introduction into how your metabolism works, can be found in THIS MANUAL (basically to show you one of 101 features in our iCoach app that you may not be aware of) _______________________ Other FAQS Q: Does the program include 1-1 discussions ? A: No. We wanted to keep the investment down so more people can join, as 1-1 Nutrition Coaching time would be chargeable at the same rate as 1-1 Personal Training time. However, we are looking at how we can make that a service or ‘bolt on’ in the future, in a way that works for everyone :-) Q: What happens after the 12 weeks? A: You have the option to renew the coaching & accountability on a rolling monthly basis without the drip-fed accountability. Price tbc Q: What if I do it, then decide it’s not for me? A: During this first intake only, if you fully engage for 4 full weeks (eg don’t dabble then decide you’re too busy) and decide it’s not quite working, we will cancel the program, refund 2/3rd of your investment and simply ask that you provide some constructive feedback, so that we can continue to improve :-)

Yes, there’s 1-1 accountability, coaching, support, feedback and check-ins etc. But this program is also based around a full 12 week curriculum.

Plus you could win some ££££ ______________________________ Nutrition Tip Nobody in the history of the world ever (true fact) has ever remembered to always drink enough water. And we all know we feel better when get our (minimum) 2 litres in.... Try adding 'drink water' to your daily to do list. But don't just add it once. Add it 3 or 4 times per day - this encourages you to drink throughout the day, rather than see it, neck a glass, then cross it off.

CLICK HERE to pop the details in of one person you know - ‘support local business’ and all that :) __________________________________ A final message..... We'll close this news update with a reminder about consistency. Now it's darker, it's easier to lose the momentum. But that's where discipline has to override things like "Expecting to feel motivated all the time". Discipline drives consistency - and doing something to 80% all the time, is better than occasionally doing it 100% "It's not all about talent. It's about dependability, consistency, and being able to improve. If you work hard and you're coachable, and you understand what you need to do, you can improve." Bill Belichick Have an awesome November !  September was rocking - but as ever, we never like to stand still here at Innovate.
Grab a brew, and a (small) biscuit, and take a peek at what’s been going down, and what’s on the horizon. ______________ OCTOBER NEW COACH It probably seems like Tina Richardson has been gatecrashing the coaching sessions for what seems like an eternity now - but up until this week, she was only on ‘work experience’. We’re delighted to officially welcome Tina into the fold as a fully fledged team member a Coach, taking over Tuesday and Wednesday mornings, and Thursday eves, plus the odd weekend. LAST CHANCE FEEDBACK As ever, we’ve been running our monthly survey - it’s been one of the best things we’ve introduced to be honest. INSANELY helpful to us. You fill it in and achieve two things:

And we will have a vote for TWO best-dressed winners- where each will win a prize! NEW KIT For once, not as exciting as previously, but again, ‘continuous improvement’. We’ve ordered some new mats.

A poll will go up shortly, to ask for some direction on what would be most helpful. But amongst the techniques bits - there’ll be coffee and cake. Lots of cake. An opportunity to eat cake mainly.

______________________________ We're hiring ! Member Experience Specialist (part time) Please click here for more info ______________________________ What are we working on? New Nutrition "things" ! 1. New 6 week kick-start Our number one core value is ‘constantly grow and improve’. We passionately believe in always trying to improve. We’ve made a number of improvements to our 6 Week nutrition & accountability kickstart program, and will be rolling out towards the end of this month! We’ve added in a simple ‘curriculum’ (twice weekly “micro lessons”) as we want to increase what we do on the ‘education’ side of things …. knowledge is power after all! We’re also adding in weekend prompts to get organised and ready for the week ahead (we all need a nudge on that from time to time!) We’re making it quicker and easier for the Coaches to monitor and give feedback on food diaries - with the benefit being it will help anyone on the program to make adjustments to their diet quicker, and further improve results. And the other main improvement we’re making, is we’re looking to have more than one Nutrition Coach ……..with ‘cohorts’ split by Coach. This means every client will still have a 1-1 Coach, but the coach will have fewer clients to look after, which means even more personalised attention, support and accountability :-) ________________________________ 2. Continuity Accountability Coaching We keep getting asked about this - and we’re aware that 6 weeks isn’t long enough for many people to firmly embed habits. And after all, anyone can do anything for a week or two when ‘novelty’ and motivation is high - but it’s the ‘sticking at it’ for months on end that becomes the more challenging aspect. So end of June is the ‘launch date’ for our new ‘continuity coaching’ program. And it’ll be there as an option for anyone who wants ongoing accountability after their first 6 weeks - or if someone has done the 6 weeks recently, realised ‘going it alone’ didn’t work, and needs that person in their corner, checking in on them and ensuring habits are on track. To give you a basic overview:
———————————————-- 3. General Nutrition ‘support’ This is something we’re also working on, as we want to have something better than the (rather old now) level 2 ‘macro nutrition course’ we give every new member for free. We’ve got the basic framework of what we want to create and deliver on this for those that want to ‘get involved and take an interest in’ nutrition and healthy habits, but without any 1-1 coaching or accountability. Aiming for mid July on this for more news and a potential “launch”! ———————————————-- Summer Challenge We’ve not had a members-only challenge for a while - so it means we’re due one! Mid July, we’ll be launching a free online 14 day ‘Summer Shape up’ (cheesy name may change!) challenge to all members. This will be fitness-only, centered around short ‘at home’ 20min daily workouts we delver to you via the new iCoach app. And of course, a little prize and incentive or two, for those that get involved. Perfect opportunity to supplement your training in the studio, and burn a few more calories, and tone a few more muscles, in time for Summer hols :) ————————————- GYM PROGRAMS Boxing is going to be moved to fortnightly moving forwards. It’s always a case of people either LOVE boxing, or try to avoid it (based on LOTS of feedback!). As it IS a great format, but trickier to add variety, we’ve decided to spread out the gaps between boxing sessions to roughly two weeks at a time. Sisters of Steel We’ve a few spaces opened up on our small group strength training program. If you’ve wondered what’s involved with those ladies lifting those big bars and weights - or are keen but slightly nervous to try - then you need to jump on a free two week trial. You don’t need to be strong at all to start. But you WILL get much stronger, much quicker, doing this form of training. CLICK HERE to request more info on a two week trial to see if you enjoy it. ————————————- REFER A FRIEND As a small business, we appreciate any and all referrals. It saves us giving Mark Zuckerberg large chunks of advertising costs - and more importantly, we believe that great clients hang out with great people. You can gift a friend two weeks for free with us, simply by clicking this link and filling out the form. We contact them to have a chat and book them in - literally no effort on your part. If they continue after their trial, you’ll get £30 of vouchers of your choice, and they’ll get £50 off a membership. Win win! If every client referred just one person (CLICK HERE) - we’d be eternally grateful :) ————————————- Tks for reading - lots of fun stuff in the pipeline!

WANT TO APPLY? Email your CV and covering letter to Chris@innovatefitness.co.uk Ever struggled to lift your arms to brush your teeth the morning after a workout? Or had to shuffle down the stairs on your bum? We’ve all been there, and it is hard! Mild soreness is very much the norm but anything more and you could be experiencing: Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness OR ‘DOMS’ This refers to the gradual increase in soreness between 24 and 72 hours after your workout, it is completely normal!! It’s actually a good thing, it means that your muscle tissue has been stressed beyond what it is accustomed to… and this is how we make progress in the gym. So, you should be somewhat encouraged by the presence of DOMs – it means you are working the muscle!! (But I must stress that soreness is not necessary to see improvements either) No one is immune from DOMS, even pro athletes who train all day still get them. However, they can be quite alarming, particularly if you are just starting out with exercise or a new style of training you might think you have done yourself some damage. So how can I stop it? Long story short… don’t stop moving! Besides from the all-important cool-down after your workout, you can help to shift the soreness with: 1. Active recovery – swimming, walking, stationary bike 2. Stretching – I can recommend an app called ‘GoWod’ 3. Heat – hot baths!! Anything that will help to improve blood flow and circulation. As important as it is to exercise, ensuring you have proper recovery in place to help your body to heal is equally as important! Lastly, don’t be afraid to take a rest day… I can guarantee you won’t lose any training gains overnight. Instead, you will give your body that extra day needed to allow you to go again, and again… happy days!! Megan & Team Innovate  We thought we'd change up the news post this month and take stock of the first three months of the year....it's been a whirlwind of activity for everyone at Innovate Towers and we thought some stats might be of interest....
Classes There were a whopping 482 classes delivered between 1 January - 31 March...of those 378 were large group and 104 Sisters of Steel...
