Superfoods is a term used for foods that are nutrient rich and and provide some health benefits.
Besides promoting overall health, many superfoods contain specific compounds, antioxidants, and micronutrients that may enhance weight loss. They are also good for combating tiredness and fatigue, so even though you are eating less, you shouldn't be more tired and lacking energy.

Over the last few decades, the amount of time that people spend sleeping has decreased, as has self reported quality of sleep. Coincidentally, at the same time, the average BMI has increased. We are seeing a trend of higher body weights and higher levels of obesity.
A number of different studies have suggested that lower levels of sleep and poorer sleep quality may lead to metabolic disorders, weight gain and an increased risk of obesity and other chronic health conditions. The existing research points to a positive correlation between good sleep and healthy body weight.
Today we explore why and how sleep quality and quantity impacts weight and what you can do about it.
Here's to sleeping like a baby.

I sit here all day though talking about the importance of strength based training yet didn’t do it myself. All that changed last year when I gathered a few friends, found a local PT and started training and today, I am joined by my personal trainer and friend, Steph Perkins from Elevate Gym on the Gold Coast.
In today's episode we talk all things challenges. What do people get out of challenges at the gym, what kind of transformations does Steph see and why they work. I'm not the biggest fan of large, franchise based gym challenges and I hope Steph can give you clearer insight into what you might get from a smaller gym experience.
