Fat Map UK

There has been a lot of news across the media today about the UK’s ‘Fat Map’; highlighting obesity hotspots across the country. The main concern seems to be that the South of the country is now becoming obese; it was okay when just the Midlands and the North were affected.


Over 1 in 10 people were reported to have a BMI (body mass index) of over 30; which is classified as obese. BMI measurements take into account your height and weight to determine your score, rather than actual body fat. I know a few people who are classed as obese because of their weight but are very lean and well muscled; this is however the minority.

We need to take this information as a wake up call to start to take action, if you feel you fall into the category above and would like to do something about it, do so. These figures will keep rising, if we don’t take the steps necessary to facilitate change. The steps don’t have to be radical, small changes all count. It could be just having 2 less biscuits with your cup of tea in the afternoon; 2 biscuits = approx. 150kcals, x 5 working days = 750kcals x 48 working weeks = 36000kcals per year saved. That’s 10.3kg of body fat for having just 2 biscuits less per day; add to that a little activity and you can get massive results.

If you would like help making a change, my next fat loss course is starting in September at Esporta Warwickshire, Coventry.
The programme focuses on good quality foods that work for your body.
I will tell you how to identify which foods work for you (one size fits all diets do not work).
I will give you recipes for breakfast, lunch and dinner to allow maximum choice and variety.
I will tell you snack ideas to minimise hunger and cravings.
You will receive:
An exercise and nutrition journal to complete daily.
A stretching programme to ensure optimal posture, alignment and tone.
An easy to follow home programme; including core exercises which take inches of your waist, legs and arms.
Which exercises work, how many to do and correct technique to use to ensure maximum strength, tone and balance in every single muscle of your body.
E-mail and text support throughout the programme.
If you don’t lose at least one full clothing size in 6 weeks, I will give you back your money and continue to train you for free until you do so.
