Feeling very happy with myself

October 12, 2018 By nextphaseinfitness 4 Comments

Feeling very happy with myself

I did it!  A few days ago, I forced myself to get back on the bike.  I know that doesn’t sound like much of an ‘I did it’ moment. But in my world, just now, it’s a huge step forward. Or perhaps I should say it’s a huge pedal forward. For most of my life […]

Walk 11 Glenlyon #150WalksinVictoria

The walk went deep into the Wombat Forest with its stunning bush scenery.  The area is very […]

Letter to new girl at the gym

Letter to new girl at the gym

Recently, I’ve been thinking about seniors exercising, and perhaps taking up an exercise program for the first time. I really do understand how daunting it can be to walk into a gym for the first time. It can feel very confronting at any age, and I’m sure it’s more confronting again, for people in their […]

Barriers to Exercise Part 2

May 16, 2018 By nextphaseinfitness 16 Comments

After my earlier post Barriers to Exercise, readers contacted me about the barriers that pop up for them from time to time. Some of those barriers are short term, and some are more difficult to jump over and can cause problems for years. Grief and depression When Sue pointed this one out to me, I couldn’t […]

Barriers to exercising

Barriers to exercising

My purpose in starting Next Phase in Fitness seven years ago was to record my fitness training and events.  I’ve now decided to change the focus of the blog slightly. I will still be recording my training and events, but now that I’m ageing I’m not participating in as many events. I’m still training and […]

Maxine’s Challenge Update

I posted previously when I started Maxine’s Challenge and also again after Week 8  It’s hard to believe, but the 12 week challenge is now over so it’s time for a final wrap. The point of doing the challenge for me was to improve my strength and add variety to my weights program in the […]
