Ep 38: The Capacity Method

I don't buy share bags of chocolate, sweets or crisps for the house.I haven't sworn off any of it. I just know that if there's an open bag in the car, even a ten minute journey will see most of it gone. Or I’ll sit at my desk and graze and graze. In this episode I'm talking about the small environment tweak that's made a disproportionate difference to my progress, why the pause is what makes it work, and what to do with the Christmas tins that are about to arrive.Want to work together?Apply today Find me on Instagram: @rach.nourishandstrength

Half term's done. And you know what Monday morning sounds like in your head…"Right, I need to get back on it. Properly this time."Please don't. In this episode I'm talking about why coming back harder never lasts, what to do instead, and why the Floor is my favourite layer of the Capacity Method. You can't fall off it, even in half term.Want to work together?Join here Find me on Instagram: @rach.nourishandstrength

A quick episode recorded on holiday, with The Capacity Method in action! Sticking to the Floor (the bare minimum) every day, doing more on the days I can.

Whenever you skip a workout or eat something you think you shouldn't, the guilt and frustration kicks in and you 'fall off'. Then plan the Monday restart. Again. This episode is about making sure that doesn't happen. I'm walking you through the Floor - the first layer of the Capacity Method, and the thing that stops you falling off your plan, and ensures you keep progressing. One or two things. Small enough to hold on any day. That's all it takes.Want to work together?Apply hereFind me on Instagram: @rach.nourishandstrength

Last week I introduced The Capacity Method. This week, I’m talking through the layers in a bit more detail. How it works in practice and why I genuinely believe this way of approaching dieting and exercise works for busy working mums in particular. There’s no way to fail! Want to work together?

Every time you've fallen off a plan, I'd bet you've told yourself the same thing."I just need more discipline.""I need to be more motivated.""I just need to want it more."In this episode I want to challenge all of those thoughts. Motivation and discipline aren't the problem. The problem is that every plan you've tried was built for a more stable week, yet the week of a working mum is anything but stable!I'm also introducing something I've been using quietly with my clients and myself for a while. The Capacity Method. My framework that removes the falling off, the resetting, the starting again Monday, the writing off of the week.I created this because you're not going to solve a capacity problem with motivation and discipline.Want to see how this will work for you?

I get excited when my clients say this! A client of mine said it this week - she’s a mum of 3 with a full life. There’s no room for a dramatic overhaul - she doesn’t feel like she’s dieting - and she’s getting results. In this episode I’m talking about why this is my whole approach to coaching nutrition and training. It should be happening in the background to the rest of your life. It should need all your attention. If your current approach feels like hard work, there is another way. Drop me a WhatsApp and let’s talk it through. Instagram @nourishandmum

I got married this weekend!So for the last 12 weeks I've been following my own Nourish & Thrive 1:1 programme to get there. Not to hit a number on the scales. Not to get my body back. But to turn up on my wedding day feeling confident, strong, and like my best self.In this episode I'm sharing what the last 12 weeks actually looked like. The three things I learned along the way - including the one that made the biggest difference. And why the bad days outnumbered the good ones, and it didn't matter.If you've been thinking about it - this is the moment.WhatsApp me for more detailsFind me on Instagram: @nourishandmum

Here's an unsexy truth that most nutrition and fitness content can't lead with because it simply doesn't sell. The thing that actually gets results isn't the woman on Instagram making "fugdge" from whey and cottage cheese (yuck). It isn't the perfect workout routine either. In this episode I'm explaining the key to getting results, especially as someone who has multiple demands on their time and 4000 decisions to make before lunch.
