What do you do in your downtime?

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!

Have you heard of Habit Stacking? 🤔

It's a great way to add movement into your day by pairing small exercises with habits you already do - helping you be active and achieve 30-20-2, even when life is busy!

You can incorporate simple exercises into your daily task, such as:
- Squats while the kettle boils - turn waiting time into movement time.
- Calf raises while brushing your teeth - two minutes of strength, twice a day.
- Lunges down the hallway - every trip becomes a mini workout.
- Marching on the spot while folding laundry- complete some of your vigorous or moderate exercise every trip.
- Glute squeezes while sitting at your desk - perfect for busy workdays.

Remember, all movement counts 🙌

For more information about 30-20-2, or helpful resources and workouts to get you moving, head to our Digital Hub.
