• 0:49
  Speaker 1: learned that over the last you know, ten fifteen years,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: we've found a way of training, a way of eating,
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: a way of being that we actually thoroughly look forward
• 0:56

  Speaker 1: your phone or write it down. You can pause it anytime,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: but these tips are going to be a game changer.
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: And just remember these tips are just things that have
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: worked for us. Like, we both love training, we're super
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: obsessed with it, but there definitely have been times along
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: the journey for us both where we've fallen out of
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: love with it and it felt really hard. It felt
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: like there was a lot of pressure. It wasn't easy.
• 1:30
  Speaker 2: So we want to help make that easy for you.
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: We can share with you what has worked for us
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: and what has helped us really get back on the
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: bandwagon of exercise.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: Even if it's men. Yeah, and even if we go
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: on holiday and we come back, we're like, oh, we're
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: at a routine. This is what we go back to. Yes,
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: we got our fool belt. We go back to these
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: and it's like so much easier to slip back into
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: it and get back to a place we were feeling
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: confident in all areas, how we look, how we feel,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: how we smell, all of it, all of it, even
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: feeling fresh it makes all the difference. And Dove, Hobbody,
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: Joed and are sponsoring the show and we do actually
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: as of the week. But this is a product I
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: swear by. It makes such a difference and I love it.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: I think I'll be using this for the rest of
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: my life. All right, let's get into it. So the
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: first one we've got is accountability buddy. This has been
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: everything for me because after I had Tala, I remember
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: saying to you, I was like, I felt like I
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: had lost the fitness motivation, the fitness love. I just
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: couldn't find a routine and I was tired all the time.
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: And then when I met you we started training together,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: I was like, oh my gosh, this just makes it
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: so fun. One, I have to show up for you.
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: I can't cancel. I don't want to cancel because I
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: don't like letting anyone down.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Two, we're training the same way like we love ways.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: It starts her day off the best, like when we
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: start the day off in a high vibe with music,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: training doing what we love, yapping away the whole time.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: It's a role on effect for the rest of our day.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: So having an accountability buddy is an absolute game changer.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it really is. And sometimes like training by yourself
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: is just it's not enough. And if it doesn't feel
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: enjoyable for you to stick with it, you're not gonna
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: want to say, yeah, that's right, You're not gonna want
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: to stick with it. You're not gonna want to stay
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: consistent with it because you can just you know, one day,
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: feel like feeling tired.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, I'm just not going to be so easy to
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: not show up for yourself.
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: It's so easy. But exactly what you said is so right.
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: When you have somebody there who's relying on you to
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: show up, and you know that you're leaning on each other,
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: you're like, I've got a shop for her and an
• 3:11
  Speaker 2: intern you shop for yourself, And it just makes it
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: so much more fun when you have somebody to do
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: it with. Your sharing the hard days, you're sharing the
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: days that you don't want to get out of bed,
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: and you let them know that, but then you're also
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: sharing the days where you're both full of energy and
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: you're so on a high and you get to know
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: bounce off each other in terms of energy, and it
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: just makes the whole process so much more fun.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: And even if you don't have a best to go
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: train with, like book a personal trainer or a class
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: like hold yourself account of while having something booked in
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: because you won't want to not turn up to that.
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: The next tip is finding a style of training that
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: you actually enjoy. I've said this the moon times, but
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: if someone said to me, for you to be healthy
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: and in shape, you need to run ten kilometers a day,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: I wouldn't even last the first day.
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: We're not runners.
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: No, you would make a story up that this isn't
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: maintainable and it's not for you, and it's not enjoyable.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: But there is so many different ways to move your body,
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: whether it's dancing or walking, or swimming, or weights or
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: polates or group classes or yoga or like literally anything.
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: There's so different things you can try. Even us, we
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: love variety. We love a polarities class, we love a
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: dance class, we love a good stretch down of the beach,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I love a booty class, we.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Love pt Yeah. What I see a lot of the
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: times is like people who let's say they're wanting to
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: get back on the vandwagon of fitness and fall back
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: in love with it, they think that they have to
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: do things that they hate. You know, it's like I've
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: got to do the things that are really hard, or
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: you know, if you want to lose weight, like immediately
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: I'm going to start running, you know. Or you're just
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: thinking that you need to do what everybody else is
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: doing to get there. You know, I have to go
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: straight into six seven days a week of training. That's
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: not the case. It really is unique based on your
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: unique journey and what you do like. And so when
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: you work with what you want, what you'd like, and
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: then still incorporating movement, that'll be amazing for you. But
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: you've got to figure that out. Maybe that looks like
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: two days of weight training and then a couple of
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: walks a week. Beautiful done, You're good. You don't need
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: to overdo it. You don't need to overwhelm yourself. Allow
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: it to be fun, ease your way into it, and
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: just remember that if you don't like it, you likely
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: won't stick to it.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: You won't stick to it. And any movement is good,
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and especially if you're on a weight loss journey. A
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: lot of people think, oh my god, I've got to
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: exercise so intensely, And yes, exercising is great for weight loss,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: but majority of that is also going to come down
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: to your die. So don't think I'm just going to
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: train seven days a week and run and do all
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: these things and absolutely hate the journey and end up
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: and burn out and then resenting exercise and then being
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: an officious cycle. Like it doesn't have to be like that,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Like you said, just aim for movement, even if it's
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: just twenty minutes a day. Start with that increase. Why
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: are you finding what you love? And a lot of
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: it is your food as well.
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I personally don't love high intensity. Yeah classes classes
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: for me. If it gets me to the point where
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: I'm going to vomit, I'm out. Like I'm already done, right, So,
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: something that we've been implementing recently was we used to
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: walk every single day, and then there was a period
• 5:45
  Speaker 2: where we picked up a lot of business and like
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: work was very hectic for a period of time there,
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: and then we weren't prioritizing it as much and we
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: both would just like we'd love to walk, feel like
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: I do more. So now we're like making an effort
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: to like walk every single day, and even just doing
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: that without adding any additional training has been such a
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: game changer.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: For both of us mentally, physically, emotional, all of it connection.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so good if it's all of the things, but
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: that's specifically what works for us. So it's like you
• 6:10
  Speaker 2: get to figure out what that looks like for you
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: and make it fun, gamify your training, and it just
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: makes it so much more enjoyable.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: You don't know what you like and tol you try it,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: So I don't knock anything until you've actually given it
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: a good go. Yeah. Next tip is cute active weight.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: It makes all the difference to me. I love all
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: the colors, the fit. It just really improves my confidence.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: This is a huge one for both of us. I
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: feel like when we both feel good in the gym,
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: it is everything. But it's not just about the way
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: we look, right. It's like the active where how good
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: it feels in our body. But it also is like
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: smelling good too.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I feel like reaching hey, yes, soft fabric and smelling good.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: We're both definitely very much scent girls. I think when
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: I go to the gym and I like don't have
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: anything on, or if I wake up in the morning
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: and I forget to put Yoda or on it, I
• 6:49
  Speaker 2: get so anxious that I don't smell good or that, like,
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: you know, I've got to walk around with my elbows,
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: and because I odor, I want other people to. I
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: don't want to be that person in the gym who
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: just doesn't smell good. So I'm so paranoid about it.
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: There's something that I've actually been trying. It's Whole Body
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: yodor and by Dove, and it's actually got this scent.
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: It's really beautiful. It's raspberry and roset. It is so
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: much so feminine and floral fresh, and it's so beautiful.
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: I'm like, at least that way, I know when I'm
• 7:13
  Speaker 2: in the gym, I know I'm gonna smell like a
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: feminine beauty.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: You know. But the best thing is it's not just
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: for under your arms. Yes, it's all over us. You
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: can use on your inner fis underneath your booth, which
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: I know we oh.
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: My god, it gets hot under there, it does. I
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: think you're raspberry, You're a very fresh kind of girl.
• 7:29
  Speaker 2: You like a fresh and fruity kind of set.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so it's called Dove Whole Body deodor, and.
• 7:34
  Speaker 2: I think we both kind of like that in that sense.
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: All right. Our next tip is set realistic goals. This
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: is such a big thing. When you're setting unmalistic goals
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: and you're not achieving them fast enough, you're just gonna
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: feel so demotivated. Having little goals amongst your long term
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: goals keeps the momentum going, keeps you motivating. Absolutely.
• 7:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like allowing yourself to celebrate those big wins.
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: I feel like when you have such a big goal
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: sometimes it can feel quite daunting, yeah, because you're like,
• 8:01
  Speaker 2: go far away, go far away, and you're like, oh,
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: it's going to be so long until I achieve this,
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: And I feel like when that happens, you kind of
• 8:07
  Speaker 2: lose momentum along the way, because if you just have
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: a bad day, you're like, oh, well it's so far away, it.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: Can it matter anyway?
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. Whereas when you set those incremental goals
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: and you go, Okay, what are my weekly goals? What
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: are my monthly goals? What am I even my small
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: day to day goals? How do I want to show up?
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: What do I want to have done? Movement wise? Do
• 8:25
  Speaker 2: I just want to tick off a walk today? Do
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: I want to make sure that I get one class
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: in over this week? How many times do I want
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: to know that I've exercised this week, you know, and
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: it's just really being able to make sure that you're
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: rewarding yourself along the way.
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: I loved breaking things up into twenty eight days. That's
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: why a lot of my programs, for like the twenty
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: eight day Booto challenge a challenge because a lot of
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: women say they're wanting to lose ten kilos. You're not
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: going to do that in twenty eight days. It's not
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: realistic and it's probably not healthy. But breaking things up
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: in twenty eight days, in myself, I've done like twenty
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: eight days of no sugar. Yeah, I'm like, wow, I've
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: broken that habit. I can see where I was going
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: to it for emotional support seeah out of habit or
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: out of boredom. And in that twenty eight days I
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: was solely focused on that. In the next twenty eight
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: I was like, wow, I want to focus on calming
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: my nervous system whilst that's amongst my healthy journey. And
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: each month was like a different theme and a different focus.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: That's so funny. Eight days I could do twenty eight days.
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, only a month doesn't seem so daunting. Twenty eight
• 9:18
  Speaker 2: days is an a daunting number at all, If anybody,
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: if you struggles with a commitment, that might actually be
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: a good amount of time, definitely rather than twelve weeks.
• 9:25
  Speaker 2: Doesn't feel like a huge commitment. You know, sometimes thinking
• 9:28
  Speaker 2: about the whole journey can create a lot of overwhelmed
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: So thinking of twenty eight days is like, this is
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: a bite sized chunk of my life that I can
• 9:35
  Speaker 2: absolutely follow through it.
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: And it's the same with food, like setting a realistic
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: goal of like, you know, I'm not gonna have any
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: carbs for twelve weeks. Yeah, like, okay, it's very unrealistic.
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Can you swap some of the carbs to be a
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: healthier carb with more fiber or can you just have
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: them in one meal? Or you know, are you over eating?
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: Like when you have a bowl of pasta, is that
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: majority passed with a tiny bit of mints. Yeah, let's
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: switch that around and have more mints and more protein
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: to keep satisfied, be able to help your muscles, and
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: you still get your carbs. I don't think restriction is
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: ever a really.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Good idea though, because it only swings you the way
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: its ractuate binging, and that's how you get stuck in
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: that cycle. It's finding the beautiful balance at all and
• 10:10
  Speaker 2: the little things that you just mentioned as well. It's
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: the little tweaks along the way that make it ch
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: much change and then it doesn't feel so overwhelming on
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: your nervous system as well. Yeah, you're not going, oh
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: my god, I have to change everything about what I
• 10:20
  Speaker 2: do and completely restrict myself. But you're going, no, I'm
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: making micro changes along the way, and that's realistic. That's realistic,
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: And when you want to tie it into your lifestyle,
• 10:29
  Speaker 2: you don't want to feel like you can't enjoy the
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: things that you normally would enjoy.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: That's the word lifestyle. Yeah, Like it's not a quick fix. No,
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: you might be changing things and altering things. Like it's
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: like how to make it work. When I started first
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: eating healthier, I was like, how can I make the
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: meals that I love just a healthier version? Like for
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: a Shepherd's pie, for example, it was just adding more
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: vegetables in there, buying a more organic sauce. It wasn't
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: filled with sugars and preservatives and artificial crap. It was
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: like making little tweaks along the way. And when I
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: was doing that with every single meal, you can see
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: that has a really positive impact over the span of
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: a month, twelve months by you know, yeah, making those
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: small little.
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: Changes definitely different definitely does go a long way.
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: The next one is being able to focus on the
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: long term gain, right, because you want to think about
• 11:14
  Speaker 2: the longevity of what it is that you're choosing, right,
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: And this is kind of something we just spoke about,
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: but making sure that what you're doing is something that
• 11:22
  Speaker 2: you can sustain for a long time, right, because that's
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: the only thing with like, when you're doing the short
• 11:27
  Speaker 2: stints and you're trying to go so hard so quick,
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: you tend to burn it out.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: Counce back.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you burn out and you bounce back and you
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: go back to what you were doing before because you're like, well,
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: within this intensity, I'm going to go so hard, but
• 11:38
  Speaker 2: it's not sustainable. And I think that's the biggest thing
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: and something that we both have implemented is when we
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: think about the long term and something that we can
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: sustain long term, it's so much easy to do because
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: we do those micro changes that we were talking about,
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: and then that way it feels like, Okay, if I
• 11:53
  Speaker 2: were to do this for three months, six months, twelve months,
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: it feels easy to achieve. It doesn't feel like, oh
• 12:00
  Speaker 2: my god, there's no way in hell that we're going
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: to be able to follow through with this. Because it's
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: easy to follow, it's easy to sustain, and when you
• 12:08
  Speaker 2: do make those micro changes, it allows you to think
• 12:11
  Speaker 2: of the longevity. I want to make sure that I
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: can sustain that behavior and sustain the exercise, the movement,
• 12:17
  Speaker 2: the way that I eat the food, the small changes
• 12:19
  Speaker 2: that I do make, so then it doesn't feel like,
• 12:21
  Speaker 2: oh my god, this is so unachievable for me.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: If you're already having that thought of like there's no
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: way I can do this, it's not the right plan
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: that's moving forward. It shouldn't feel so hard. From experience,
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: it doesn't have to be hard. I've helped hundreds of
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: thousands of women, Yeah, find a lifestyle that they really
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: thoroughly enjoy, Like women that I trained fifteen years ago
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: are still training and eating the same way that I
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: taught them.
• 12:40
  Speaker 2: And that's what you want.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: Maintainable.
• 12:41
  Speaker 2: That's amazing, and how flexible it is that flexible?
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so important.
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: The next one is also making sure that you're prioritizing rest.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: So important because if you.
• 12:51
  Speaker 2: Are going too hard, too fast, and you're not making
• 12:54
  Speaker 2: any time for rest. You will burn yourself out. And
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: your off time is just as important as you're on time.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Because it makes you're on time better. If you're tired
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: and exhausted and burnt out and muscles of a teath,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: you can't perform at one hundred percent. That's right. It's
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: like our phones. We have to plug them in at
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: the end of the day. We're allowed to have rest days,
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and it will make your performance so much better.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Even on my rest days, I feel like I'm still
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: a paranoid about smelling, right. I don't know why I'm
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: such a freak. Recently, when I go to bed at
• 13:20
  Speaker 2: night or I have a shower, I've been putting deodorant
• 13:21
  Speaker 2: on before I go to bed, and normally I wouldn't
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: do that, but I feel so much more fresh in
• 13:25
  Speaker 2: the morning. And we're actually working with a company, Dove,
• 13:28
  Speaker 2: and they have this whole body's yodorant that they've just
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: recently come out with and I think it's really cool.
• 13:32
  Speaker 2: And then there's also like a cream as well, which
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: you can directly apply under your arms.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Under your boobs, in your inner fires and beyond. And
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: then there's the aerosol can. If you just prefer a
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: spray deodorant, they've got that as well.
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: Yeah, no mess, no noe. Then you don't have to
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: touch anything, which I love.
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: I literally have one in my car, one on my handbag,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: and one of my gym bag in my gym bag.
• 13:48
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I feel like one for every place. So also,
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: but it just makes you feel so good, especially when
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: you're waking up in the morning and you don't already
• 13:55
  Speaker 2: feel like you need a shower, even though you're probably
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: a hower anyway, especially for those moments when you're getting
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: up really quick. And say for us, like when we
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: wake up in the morning and we're getting up straight away,
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: we're going straight for a walk. It's really helpful because
• 14:06
  Speaker 2: then we come home and then shower.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: So it's called Dove whole body deodoran. It is so good.
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: And just like we're in the studio, we're in here
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: for eight hours straight. We want to feel fresh, and
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: we go straight from here to the hotel. We film
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: content for two hours, then we go to dinner and
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, I'm like, I still
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: smell so beautiful. I don't have to worry about body odor, and.
• 14:23
  Speaker 2: That's a big day for us. Like, that's a huge day.
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: It's so nice to feel fresh and smuggled all day long.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: And you better want to smell like raspberries and roast.
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, so good.
• 14:31
  Speaker 2: The next one is creating an epic high vibe playlist
• 14:35
  Speaker 2: that really gets you going every time. So music for
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: us especially makes all the difference. Like you should see
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: us in the car when we're vibing out and like,
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: you know, we stopped at a traffic light, and for
• 14:44
  Speaker 2: anyone watching us on the inside, we just look absolutely
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: because a little bit parts out we do. We find playlists,
• 14:50
  Speaker 2: we bring them together, we create new ones, and every
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: single time we get in the car, we're like, oh
• 14:53
  Speaker 2: my god, look at this song. We just found this song,
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: and it makes all the difference because sometimes you can
• 14:58
  Speaker 2: use music as a way to increase your energy. Oh
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: it does, right, completely changes your state. And so you
• 15:04
  Speaker 2: might wake up one and feel super low vible. Maybe
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: you're just feeling neutral and not really feeling high or low,
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: and then you listen to a song and you really
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: get into it and you're like, oh my god, yes,
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: everything about this song and it changes your state entirely.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: There's one song at the moment that as soon as
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: you put on both of us like whoa. It's called
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: Nasty Nasty by Imposta. Type it in on Spotify because
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: it's three versions. There's a slow version, the normal version,
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: and then a sped up version. So depending on how
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: we're feeling wanting to be a high vibe before training,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: we put on the really high beat fast like Ravy
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: type one. So create a playlist or just jump on
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: Spotify and you can literally search anything like I love
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: R and B workout playlist or I've got a spicy playlist,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: whatever you're into, there's so many that are already done.
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: Or you can create one with all of your favorite songs.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah, or maybe you actually don't even know what your
• 15:46
  Speaker 2: music style is yet. This is your opportunity to explore that, Yeah,
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: what feels good, what puts you in a high vibe state?
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: What are the songs that get you really feeling like
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: that energy is like pumping in your body? And then
• 15:57
  Speaker 2: create a playlist all on that.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: So freaking cool. The next tip I have, and it
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: depends on a personality. I know what I love and
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: I'll probably still be training like this when I'm eighty
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: years old. But I know for some people too, that
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: variety is key. Yes, if you get bored doing the
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: same things, like mix it up. If you've been running
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: your whole life, you're like, oh, I have to go
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: for another run again. Mix it up. Book in a
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: random dance class, like join the run club, so you've
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: got company, you're meeting your people community. Yeah, variety is
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the spice of life. Even us, we don't just train
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: in the one gym. Yeah, there's three different gyms that
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: we train up because we like different environments. There's different pts,
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: there's different music, it's a different far.
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: It is a different far.
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: Go to like a commercial gym. Through our back day.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: We train with a training in like this all black
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: more like exclusive, very quiet gym, and then we go
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: to like a crazy booty class on a Saturdayhere there's
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: twenty women girls, all the little bitty shots. We're all
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: dancing and having the best time.
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: Five music.
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But variety.
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: And even when I walk so like we're walking broad
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: Beach day walking Burly, we do the headline like we
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: always mix it us and it just keeps it fun.
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: Structure is good sometimes, right, you want to have that structure.
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: But you know, for somebody like both of us, who
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: have been training for between ten and fifteen years longer,
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: like that, variety brings so much more play and more fun.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: You don't want it to feel stale. No, not at all.
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: And you know, there was a point in my weight
• 17:09
  Speaker 2: training journey where I was so consistent with it for
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: such a long time that I did get to the
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: point where I was like, I do need to throw
• 17:15
  Speaker 2: something else in. I want to explore something. And that
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: was when we tried pilates for a little while, because
• 17:20
  Speaker 2: it was a different type of movement. It was a
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: little bit more gentle on the body. Whereas weight training
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: can feel quite masculine, it can feel like strength training,
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: whereas pilarates was a little bit softer and feminine and
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: those deep core muscles and yeah, working your body in
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: different ways than what you normally.
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: Would even trying a PTE. It's like, we know how
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: to train, but he had different ways to activate the
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: before we started, or the little tweaks he made in
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: our form, or just different ways to do a step up.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I know it sounds silly, but it's like variety again.
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: I was like, wow, I didn't know how to do
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: it like that or I thought I knew how, but
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: the way he's corrected me, now I can feel that
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: where I want to feel.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: Knowing that doesn't matter how long you've been doing it,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: there's always something more, always you know you couldn't mind
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: it. It can always be a beginner at something, no matter
• 17:59
  Speaker 2: how long you've been doing it. And I think even
• 18:01
  Speaker 2: working with our trainer has changed the game in terms
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: of how I know how to train my body. Yes,
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: you know, like what you mentioned, those little tweaks and
• 18:09
  Speaker 2: things like that go such a long way. Now I'm
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: training better, training properly, making sure I'm not getting injured
• 18:14
  Speaker 2: and all those things.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: So funny when we're walking to the gym with him,
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: he's always like, you girls always smell so damn good.
• 18:19
  Speaker 2: Yes, this load he has like who sprayed something? He
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: smells so good.
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: And it's not just our underarms, it's duve hobbody Jodan.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: Literally everywhere we are covered head to toe and I
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: smell like raspbees and roses, and I love it.
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: The raspy and rose like someone smells amazing.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: That's always us.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: He knows it.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: Okay. The last tip is just being super aware of
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: the language that you use, so change it. Like I
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: have to go work out, You get to go and
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: work out. Make it fun. And this is why a
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: lot of the tips have incorporated, like making sure that
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: you really enjoy.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: This and going to the gym or doing a plates
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: class and it feels really hard in the moment. Sure,
• 18:55
  Speaker 2: but I'm like, how privileged am I that my body
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: can do this?
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: Literally?
• 18:59
  Speaker 2: That I can push my body consistently, that I can
• 19:01
  Speaker 2: grow muscle, that I can lift this amount of weight,
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: that I can hold to playing for that long.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: You know what I mean.
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: It's just those little moments. So I think intention in
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: everything that you do is so important. Make what you said,
• 19:12
  Speaker 2: the language you said is so important. No one's forcing
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: you to move, No one's saying you have to go
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: out and walk, you have to go out and do this.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: It's you get to It's a choice. It's a choice
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: to have that mindset. It's a choice to invest in yourself,
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: whether it's a pete, whether it's keep active with and
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: doing it like with a smile on your face and
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: feeling confident. Thank you, dub Whole Body deodorant.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Thank you for making me smell like roses and raspberry.
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so fresh, so confident, and smelling amazing. Well, that's
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: all the tips that we have for you. But we
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: hope this makes it a little bit more lighthearted and open.
• 19:41
  Speaker 1: It gives you like a little bit of it, almost
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: like a checklist to kind of follow whenever he locks.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: You can confer it whenever you were feeling.
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: Like you feel uninspired, or you feeling like you've fallen
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: out of love with training or even just movement in general.
• 19:52
  Speaker 2: And when you can use these and implement these and
• 19:55
  Speaker 2: just make it fun, light and playful, you're gonna find
• 19:58
  Speaker 2: yourself falling back in love with it sooner than you
• 20:00
  Speaker 2: can say.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: And you've probably heard these tips before, just like we have.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: But like I said, if you've fallen off the bandwagon,
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: maybe you've had surgery like I did, or you've gone
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: on a holiday, or you're going through a breakup, you
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: feel lost and you're just like, where do I start again?

  Speaker 1: on the path. Or you're feeling confident, you're feeling fresh,
