[DEADLIFT] I have been wanting this @grrrl_clothing top ever since I saw @chloebrennanx wearing one. It finally came back into stock and now it's mine 😊 Great timing too as on Saturday I have my first ever max deadlift event in a strongwoman competition. I'm aiming for a new PB, the question is how much of one will it be? Let's hope the deadlift god(dess) is smiling on me. #grrrlgang #deadlift #strongwoman #strength #strongwomen #strength #bnsf #masters #BritainsStrongestWoman

[THAT'S A WRAP] And just like that training for #BNSF Britain's Strongest Woman is done. It's been a good week all in all. @strengthcoach_london clearly knew what my body and brain needed so it was comp weight on 4 events and a de-load on everything else including deadlifts. I've hit all the weights, not missed any reps and basically restored my self-belief in my lifting ability - massively important with just 6 days until the competition. So now I rest, recover, mobilise, hydrate and eat. Sports therapy on Wednesday and a light sports massage on Thursday. The main thing is to keep my shit together mentally, believe I can achieve the goals I've set myself and rock up on Saturday ready to give it my all. #strongwoman #strongman #bnsf #bsw #strength #natty #nattyoldbird #masters

[SMILE] Things to smile about today 😊 My lower back is feeling loads loads better and I can train again! 😊 An hour of massage with @jesswolsnape has left my upper back and shoulders feeling better than they have in weeks 😊 I reminded myself today that I do strongwoman for fun. Yes I've got a big comp coming up and I want to focus and give it my all but ultimately this is my hobby - I need to remember that when the nerves/anxiety kick in - 😊 In 10 days time I get to represent my country at Britain's Strongest Natural Woman. Whatever happens on the day, just being there is pretty damn great Coached by @strengthcoach_london #strongwoman #strongman #strength #bnsf #brits #masters #nattyoldbird

[THIS] Haven't reposted anything in ages but YES to this @aliceliveing #Repost @aliceliveing (@get_repost) ・・・ Alice, why are you wearing make up to train? ⁣ ⁣ To the girl who wears make up to train, you do you.⁣ To the girl who goes bare faced to the gym, you do you. ⁣ To the girl who wears baggy T-shirt’s to workout, you do you. ⁣ To the girl who rocks a booty short, you do you.⁣ To the girl who wears her hair down for a class, you do you. ⁣ To the girl who’s got a pineapple bun, you do you.⁣ ⁣ Can we stop for a wee moment policing how others should or shouldn’t exercise (I’m looking at you Tanya Gold) and instead just celebrate that WHATEVER MAKES YOU FEEL GOOD WHILE YOU MOVE IS TOTALLY VALID AND TOTALLY ACCEPTABLE. ⁣ ⁣ Let’s just take a moment to remember that it takes damn confidence for many of us to walk in to the gym in the first place so in the nicest way possible, focus on your own shit and let others get on with theirs! ⁣ ⁣ *Rant over* Peace and love ❤️ #YouDoYou #Acceptance #Rant #Workout

[CARNIVORE] Lately the world seems to be embracing plant based diets way way more than I could ever have imagined when I was a 12 year old vegetarian in the mid 80s. I made do with cheese and eggs because veggie alternatives were pretty much non-existent. I made the decision to start eating meat again not long after I got married in 2009. Many of the reasons I had for not eating meat just weren't relevant anymore and I genuinely feel more healthy for bringing fish and meat back into my life. FWIW I still have total respect for people who choose to live a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. It's just not something that I choose to do anymore. Despite now being a carnivore I've always struggled with bones and skin. Give me a chicken breast, skinless fillet of fish or steak and I'm happy. I can't handle chicken legs or wings, fish bones or meat chops. But today at the grand age of 45 I ate my first rib off a bone. And mighty delicious it was too. @dsjones73 your days of stripping meat off ribs are over. Another step on my carnivore journey complete! #carnivore #inamo #soho #ribs #london

[NOTE TO SELF] Just popping this here for myself. I tweaked something in my back deadlifting tonight. With just 2 weeks before the #BNSF Britain's Strongest Woman this really isn't great news. But there's no point in panicking (really brain, there really isn't) I will follow the advice I've been given by @strengthcoach_london and my sports therapist and pray to the strongwoman gods that whatever it is heals up quickly. Just a few hours ago my focus was completing my training over the next 9 days. Now my entire focus is on doing whatever it will take to be able to show up and compete on 29th. #dontpanic #keepcalmandrestup #bnsf #brits #masters #nattyoldbird
