#25 Goal Setting, Mindset and How To Get Sh*T Done
 Right, there is a lot of content in this episode. If this episode was a social media post you would get blown away by the randomness and content and subject jumping. It was actually quite difficult to get this one pulled out of my brain and I want you to hear and listen to this. I go quite deep on goal setting and sharing with you how I stay on track to my goals. It isn’t always plain sailing and sometimes you’ll get sidetracked. During this episode I even sunk myself by shouting “hey Siri” which set my phone off!!!

This one is all about how to season and periodise your training and teaching so you can be fresh at the right times. No body can work at 100% for 100% of the time.

This 13 minute episode I will share with you my nutrition tips I use myself and prescribe with my private clients. Please listen and forward me any questions to rickfitni@gmail.com Ricky
