Should you train when you’re ill....well, it depends. I woke up with a terrible sore throat and blocked nose yesterday morning....but I still headed straight to the gym. The “neck rule” is a good rule of thumb to follow. If all your symptoms are above the neck, its likely you can still workout. For example, a runny or blocked nose, mild cough and sore throat.

Valerie tells us about her transition to becoming Plant Based. "I’ve been plant based for 2 years now.

It has taken me a while to know which brands produce the best quality clothes at reasonable prices, so I thought I'd write a post about my favourite sportswear brands and reasons why I love them so much to help anyone looking for some new gym wear.
