Description

Are you a busy woman struggling to find time for fitness and wellness in your hectic life? Would you love to create more balance in your life between work, family life and time to focus on your own needs? Are you sick of the fitness and nutrition rollercoaster and would love to get unstuck, escape fad diets and quick fixes, and actually find a routine that works within your busy life? Sick of unrealistic body standards, of workout programmes and diets that ignore ‘real’ women with busy lives, and of feeling like you can never do enough? Then look no further than The Busy Woman's Guide to Fitness & Wellness, your weekly dose of inspiration and motivation. Hosted by Alix Hubble, Mum of 2, Fitness & Wellness Coach, founder of ChickFit, and lover of wine and chocolate, this podcast helps you discover a realistic and achievable way to stay active within a busy schedule.

Join us each week to get answers to questions like: - How can I start a fitness routine at home? - What are the best exercises for toning up? - How often should I work out to see results? - Is cardio or strength training better for me? - What’s the best type of exercise for weight loss? - How can I fit exercise into a busy schedule? - How can I start a fitness routine as a beginner? - How can I get motivated to exercise? - How can I reduce my stress? - How can I practice self care with a busy schedule? - What are the symptoms of the perimenopause and menopause? - How can I manage hormonal changes during the menopause? - What lifestyle changes can help me with the perimenopause and menopause? - What’s the best type of exercise for the menopause? - How do I lose the extra tummy weight during the menopause? - How can I stop dieting? - How can I become more body confident? - Why is diet culture so bad? - Do diets work?
