 One of the most important things for me, is to BE HELPFUL
Hence, spending nearly 10 years in education in my 30's to becoming what I am now! Thus, helping all kinds of people with food conditions; intolerances, especially in the realms of weight-loss and in many other capacities.

Through conversation, I can understand the person I'm speaking to, and they can judge my capabilities and motivations.

If I don’t understand the person, or they find me “iffy” in some way they can’t put their finger on. This person will not trust me as their adviser, no matter how neatly my follow up structure is organized and delivered.

Don’t misunderstand me, reminders and process are important, but not the ❤of what I do.

The core of that  ❤is:

- Genuine desire to help

- Trust & Faith that if I help enough people, a good proportion will want to help me

I’m looking forward to helping as many people as possible, and slowly building the list of people I can proudly think of as "amazing human beings that I am helping into the future"

Anorexia Nervosa imageAnorexia Nervosa image
Anorexia nervosa is a psychological illness that has significant emotional, physical, and social consequences. It is characterised by body image distortion with an obsessive fear of gaining weight, which manifests itself through depriving the body of food. It often coincides with increased levels of exercise.

Anorexia is an incredibly serious mental illness and has the highest mortality rate of any psychiatric illness. Extreme food restriction can lead to starvation, malnutrition, severe mental distress and suicidality. However, complete recovery from anorexia is possible.

There is no magic word, prescription or motivational speech that will force recovery upon you. Only you can make that choice. That choice will dissipate the loneliness and isolation that your eating disorder compels you to feel. I took small steps, which turned into bigger leaps towards health and happiness"

Recognizing the Symptoms of Anorexia Nervosa
Those with anorexia nervosa lose weight and maintain their extremely low weight in different ways. While some put severe restrictions on their calorie intake, others exercise excessively. Some employ a binge and purge method similar to that used by those with bulimia. Others use laxatives, vomiting, or diuretics to rid themselves of calories. Warning signs of anorexia nervosa

Some of the more common signs and symptoms of anorexia nervosa are:
  • Preoccupation with body shape, weight and/or appearance
  • Intense fear of gaining weight 
  • Preoccupation with food or food related activities
  • Negative or distorted body image, perceiving self to be fat when at a healthy weight or underweight
  • Low self-esteem (e.g. guilt, self-criticism, worthlessness)
  • Rigid thinking (‘black and white’, ‘good and bad’ foods)
  • Feeling out of control
  • Mood swings
  • Anxiety or depression
  • Heightened anxiety around meal times
  • Heightened sensitivity to comments or criticism about body shape, weight, appearance, eating or exercise habits
  • Suicidal or self-harm thoughts or behaviours
  • Constant or repetitive dieting, restrictive or rigid eating patterns
  • Excessive or compulsive exercise
  • Changes in clothing style
  • Impaired school or work performance
  • Obsessive rituals around food
  • Changes in food preferences
  • Frequent avoidance of eating meals, making excuses not to eat
  • Social withdrawal or avoidance of social situations involving food
  • Repetitive or obsessive body-checking behaviours
  • Deceptive or secretive behaviour around food
There are two main sub-types of anorexia:

Restricting type
— this is the most commonly known type of anorexia nervosa, whereby a person habitually restricts their food intake. Restriction may take many forms (e.g. maintaining very low calorie count, restricting types of food eaten, eating only one meal a day, (may not even be what may seem to be the amount of a meal!) Foods eaten may follow obsessive and rigid rules (e.g. only eating food of one colour or one kind of a particular food group).

Binge-eating or purging type — this type of anorexia nervosa forms when a person restricts their intake as above, but also has periods were masking may be evident and this may take effect and can go on for days. Or engaged in binge-eating or purging behaviour (e.g. self-induced vomiting, over-exercise, misuse of laxatives, diuretics or enemas).



  • Physical signs and effects of anorexia nervosa
  • Anorexia nervosa can affect the mind and body in a multitude of ways:
  • Brain – preoccupation with food/calories, fear of gaining weight, headaches, fainting, dizziness, mood swings, anxiety, depression
  • Hair and skin – dry skin, brittle nails, thin hair, bruises easily, yellow complexion, growth of thin white hair all over body (called lanugo), intolerance to cold
  • Heart and blood – poor circulation, irregular or slow heartbeat, very low blood pressure, cardiac arrest, heart failure, low iron levels (anaemia)
  • Intestines – constipated, diarrhoea, bloating, abdominal pain
  • Hormones – irregular or absent periods, loss of libido, infertility
  • Kidneys – dehydration, kidney failure
  • Bones and muscles – loss of bone calcium (osteopenia), osteoporosis, muscle loss, weakness, fatigue

Recovery and treatment


It is possible to recover from anorexia, even if you have been living with the illness for many years. The first step towards recovery is to ask for help. With the right team supporting you and a high level of commitment, you can recover from anorexia.

Steroids are extremely effective in relieving pain and inflammation in the body, and they can be life saving.  

What Are Steroids? Steroids, or corticosteroids, are anti-inflammatory drugs. There are many types and they are sold under various brand names: 

  • Prednisone (Deltasone, Sterapred)
  • Methylprednisolone (Medrol)
  • Prenisolone (Prelone, Pediapred)
  • Dexamethasone (Decadron, Hexadron)
  • Hydrocortisone (Acticort, Cortef)

 How Do Steroids Cause Weight Gain? Steroids affect sodium (salt) balance and, hence, increase fluid retention. They cause weight gain by increasing appetite and re-deposition of fat around the neck and abdomen. Because of chronic inflammation and pain, you will be less active and this will also contribute to weight gain. How Do You Manage Weight Gain?

There is no easy road to losing weight from the side effects of steroids. However, there are six steps you can take to manage it: Step 1: Plan Your Meals Be aware of the amount of calories in the food you are eating. You will then be able to reduce the total amount of calories you normally consume by 10-20%. You can search online to obtain the calorie content of the food you normally eat. Counting calories is a method of weight loss.

10 Reasons Why Training Outdoors is Good For You

10 Reasons Why Training Outdoors is Good For You

10 Reasons Why Training Outdoors is Good For You 1a. It lowers blood pressure and reduces stress Studies have shown that physical activity outdoors lowers a person's blood pressure and heart rate. As a result, exercise outdoors feels less strenuous than similar exercise indoors, which, in turn, pushes you closer to your maximum performance. Train outdoors, push yourself to the limit and keep breaking your personal record! 1b Enhanced Self-esteem Research shows that as little as five minutes of outdoor exercise can improve self-esteem (Barton and Pretty, 2010). Any outdoor location will do, but being near greenery or water enhances this effect. Interestingly, low- to moderate-intensity physical activity shows greater improvements in self-esteem than high-intensity outdoor exercise. Activities shown to improve self-esteem include walking, cycling, horseback riding, fishing and gardening. A regular dose of outdoor activity can help boost the already powerful esteem-enhancing effect of exercise. Outdoor exercise has been proven to reduce stress. 2. Helps with insomnia When you exercise outdoors, you get fresh air which helps to alleviate insomnia. Regular exercise and fresh air will help yo

Frontal Muscle Anatomy

Frontal Muscle Anatomy

Major Muscles on the Front of the Body Our body has several layers of muscles. This list shows the outermost layer, called the superficial layer, of our major muscles. Muscles are usually work in pairs because although they can contract and shorten (flex), they are pulled by an opposite (antagonist) muscle to straighten out (extend) again. Sometimes the name of the muscle includes it’s function—such as extensor, flexor, adductor, abductor. The muscles on the front of the trunk help lift the arms and move the body forward and sideways. They also protect the organs in the abdomen. To better understand muscles and how they work, it’s important to familiarize ourselves with the different planes of the body. In anatomy, there are three different planes in which our bodies move.

How to Do Calf Raises the Right Way Slow down (way down) Speed is your enemy on calf raises. The calf is made up of several muscles that work together each time you take a step—that's at least 5,000 reps per day for most of us. In order to improve size and strength in this area of your body, the mind-to-muscle connection is extremely important. I suggest using a 2-1-2-1 ratio: a two-second stretch, a one-second contraction up, a two-second isometric hold at the top of the range of motion, and then a two-second eccentric motion back down. Stacking five plates on a barbell and doing five max-out reps won't help you here! Stand up (all the way up)

'Personal Trainer Leeds'

Combining over 16 years of experience as a Nutritionist BSc 'hons' degree n' Trainer to 'Weight-loss' Specialist

Hi, I'm Darren.

Why I am a Trainer?

I am both a 'Trainer' and a 'Nutritionist', as I receive a great amount of pleasure from being both, but i would like to concentrate on talking about being a Personal Trainer. As a trainer I believe in that everybody is capable and has the ability to be able to change their own outlook and circumstances for the better, both mentally and physically.

In my line of work I am very fortunate as I meet a lot of people in and around Leeds; from the people who work in an office and as well as people that work manually, and also as a skilled laborer. We all have different jobs and therefore are presented with different physical and emotional challenges 'in our busy busy lives. Other challenges stem from not having enough time to look after ourselves and doing this whilst taking care of their families. Living today is hard and looking after ourselves is even harder as we all have bosses to appease and girlfriends and partners to please, this is tough! This then is a great opportunity as it presents me with lots of different challenges, such as; helping someone take care of themselves by helping them through listening and understanding what it is they would like to change about themselves and this is what I appreciate and specialize in, and where I can help.

Everyone unfortunately suffers with different struggles in life sometime or other, such as; mental illnesses, being ill or unwell with an illness; or inflicted with a diseases and perhaps through injury. There are so many other hidden dangers out there that can suppress our health too such as the kinds of food we eat and different not forgetting the different life stress's. There are good stress's and bad stress's. Looking after ourselves has become hard with hidden traps like 'junk-food' and over indulging on food and drink. The complexities are never ending and complex and when this happens it is comforting to know there is help at hand I like to think of myself as someone who can help both as a 'Trainer' and a 'Nutritionist'. There is no other feeling quite like helping someone realize they can do something that they think their mind and body can not do, and that person, (client) over comes this challenge and has the ability to overcome a range of emotions like' the inability to do something because of what they believe about themselves' or 'they have not the capability as they have never thought or had the inclination that they are more than able.

My job allows gives me the opportunity to work with quite a diverse range of people and whilst I love Personal Training I relish indeed and mostly relish the challenges that i get presented with. I indeed get a great deal of satisfaction from being presented with challenges that I am presented with, such as; weight reduction; weight reduction whilst challenged medically, putting on weight, rehabilitation, recovery from injury etc. This is achieved by helping that person become stronger as a person and 'healthier' And this is what i like to do.

I found myself at times being overwhelmed with clients questions i.e. why I don't lose the weight when i exercise the way that i do, or living the healthy lifestyle I lead? And mostly when that that individual would suffer from a particular mental illness, disease or illness of a particular nature? So I decided to go back to school and study as a Nutritionist.

Thank you.

Darren.

Services offered for clients are 1 to 1 training and group session and Personal training combined with nutrition.

I work in a studio, (studio environment would be any private) A big box gym would be any health club or chain that offers a gym area with free weights or cardio equipment, as well as group fitness classes and training, such as 24 Hour Fitness (this is where I work out frequently and also where I teach group classes, Exercise4less (I used to work here as a personal trainer), Nuffield, Leeds City Council, Esporta, Seb Coe 'Health club chain, or even a university or local gym.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF A STUDIO VS. A BIG BOX GYM ENVIRONMENT
You always get a full workout, even if you aren’t self-motivated. When you go to a studio and attend a session, or a class, you know you’re going to get in a workout and this is helpful when you’re low on inspiration, motivation or an idea of what you want to do that day. Sessions/Classes take the guesswork out for you, and that’s so important when you don’t have the time or energy to think about what your workout should be that day.

There's a strong and good chance to get to know the instructors better. Instructors at a studio and often teach a lot of sessions/classes at that same studio, so you get to see them more often. If you start to fall in love with an instructor, it’s a good motivator to continually book into the sessions/classes they teach to stay consistent.

Studios build strong communities, and people know your name. While not every fitness studio has a community vibe, a lot of them work really hard to offer events, products and other amenities to keep their members excited, involved and coming back. It feels good to be part of something, especially if it’s a chain studio with multiple locations, because you feel like you belong and are more likely to stay loyal and consistent. And you know what feels really good at a studio? When both the front desk staff and the other instructors know you by your name!


My opening hours are usually start at 05.00 till 12.00, (lunchtime) and begin again at 15.00 till 22.00 - i would usually be preparing at 05.00 for my day ahead.

Equipment I use are mixture of resistance equipment such as dual pulley and smith machine and bars n' free weights and great many more pieces of equipment. Cardio equipment includes Rower, treadmill, Bike etc.
