Welcome to the Move Blog

Getting fit and healthy are the top new year resolutions for us all. A brand new year calls for a revamp of the body and mind, especially after the gluttony of Christmas. But did you know that out of the 4 million who joined the gym in January, 60% of hopefuls have canceled their gym membership by May?

Well hello there, December! You sure sneak up on us quickly… And along with the shock that it’s the last month of the year, it brings about so many events and feasts which can be quite overwhelming! 

We all know that getting into a routine can turn fitness into a habit... not a chore. For many, having structure to their weeks can help them hit their workouts and commit to classes. But what happens when you don’t live the usual 9 - 5 and have the envious lifestyle of a digital nomad?

We know that being active is the key to a healthy and happy lifestyle… and we all know that nothing feels better than feeling strong. But are you that person that wants to exercise but can’t quite seem to master the art of nailing a consistent active lifestyle?

Sheffield is a historical city full to the brim of delicious cafes, a flourishing coffee scene, cosy pubs and cocktails galore. Plonked right beside the natural wonder of the Peak District National Park, it’s risen from it’s famous grey industrious reputation of the 19th Century to become a vibrant concrete playground to explore! 

Does being told to exercise for 30 minutes every day before munching diligently on your five-a-day make you want to run a mile? Us too – literally.

Did you get a ticket to Glastonbury Festival? If not, then perhaps avert your tear-filled eyes… but if you did, then we bet you feel like Charlie winning the golden ticket. Glastonbury Festival, baybaaaay!

The 19th Century Philosopher Henry Thoreau said “Happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder”.

Fitness should be fun - that’s our mantra which we want everyone in the world to know!  Sure, you can sweat but can you smile at the same time? It’s all about finding the activity that’s right for you and if it makes you happy, you’re more likely to stick with it.
