Love ordering in dumplings and watching a series on Netflix.   What’s one thing most people don’t know about you? I’m a massive Harry Potter fan and I have seen all the films and can quote lines from every movie.   What advice would you give to anyone starting their own fitness journey? Aim to create a routine and a structure to your week with your training and nutrition. Where you introduce one habit at a time and build from there. Learn to enjoy the process and not focus on the end goal. Lastly be kind to yourself. Not every week will be perfect, do the best you can, and consistency is the key to change!   Thanks Joel for being a dedicated personal trainer and for your commitment to the PARC Team over the past 8 years!

There's so many reasons why getting more movement into your day is so important:
🧠 Improves oxygen flow to muscles and brain 
☺️ Releases feel-good chemicals that fight fatigue 
🤩 Gives an instant lift after even short activity 
💪 Builds long-term stamina and alertness
