Saturday mornings are always a special one as it’s where it all started when I first moved back to the UK in 2019.

LAST REMAINING PT SLOTS

With the last (yes last) baby moving to nursery in September I can open up my final PT slots. This is it! They dont come up often so if you’re interested in securing one or more of these then reach out asap.

Whether you’re looking for more structure, want to learn a new skill, increase fitness, train for an event, train for LIFE, change body composition or just improve your mental health - I can help. All delivered in a non intimidating semi-private gym.

Let’s go! Hannah 💪

Just gave our shiny new leg extension/leg curl machine a spin! Fiddly setup, but the payoff is real. Your hamstrings, quads, and glutes will thank you

School holidays are nearly here... which means workouts will be powered by snacks, tantrums, and the occasional rogue poo 💩
Your gym plans might go out the window faster than your kid’s patience in a supermarket queue — and that’s OK.
Adapt your training, embrace the chaos, and remember: chasing small humans counts as cardio 🏃‍♀️💨
Not forgetting well behaved little people are always welcome to tag along with you so you don’t miss out on your session 💪

9 months in, 9 months out. My growing babies days are done, now it’s my time to grow.

WHEN LIFE GETS IN THE WAY OF TRAINING
Normally I aim for three training sessions a week. This week I've only managed one, and I didn't even complete my full program. Between doctor's appointments, sick kids, and teething babies, life had other plans.
But that doesn't mean I've been inactive - my job keeps me moving, even if it's just cleaning the gym floor with a baby on my back. Sometimes that's enough.
I'll make up for lost time over the weekend with dog walks and maybe a run if my body feels up to it. What I won't do is stress about food or falling behind on my strength goals.
Just like our bodies need to adapt to training, we need to adapt to life's unexpected twists.
Are you an all-or-nothing type? When your workout falls apart, do you scrap everything and give up, or do you adjust your plans and focus on general movement and protein intake?

It’s no secret that if you really want to progress in weightlifting that mobility needs to be your friend. The snatch is one of the most physically demanding position for your body to be in and requires good ankle, hip, thoracic and shoulder mobility.
Incorporating regular mobility sessions with either an app like GoWod, or attending yoga classes (hello @tri_konasana_ ) is a great way to support your lifting. Just as you work at getting stronger, you also need to work on getting more mobile.

#longgametraining #gymuk #trainsmart #mobility #britishweightlifting #bwl #explore #flexibility

Always grateful to the first faces who came to this class back in August 2019, some of who still come today. And without them and their support I wouldn’t have Long Game today!

Every Saturday morning in Kintbury - we always welcome new faces, book online through the website.

Where can I get to by 9 months postpartum?!

Keeping competitions at bay for now until I’ve got further info on my diastasis and hernia. But that doesn’t mean I stop building the foundations to get back there.

You guys training hard makes me wants to keep training hard. So please don’t stop 😂

#longgametraining #newburyindies #gymuk #playthelonggame #hungerford #personaltrainer #newbury #britishweightlifting #berkshirebusiness #postpartum #mumofthree

In an industry where a lot of people sell their services with what they’re body looks like, I’ve always been proud of myself for trying to sell my services for appreciating what your body can do instead.

But that doesn’t mean I’m immune to the pressures to conform to health and fitness beauty standards. I’ve battled with disordered eating in the past to “look” a certain way to prove that I am a good trainer. But years of work have allowed me to know that my body’s aesthetic has no reflection on my ability to do my job or compete in Olympic weightlifting.

This third baby stretched me beyond my body’s limits, he was my biggest baby, my longest pregnancy and I’m older. But I didn’t expect to be hit with a severe diastasis and an umbilical hernia that will likely need surgery. Nothing is stopping me from training the way I want to train, it’s just stopping my mind from being ok with how this new body feels and looks different. My tummy is squishy, it moves more, I can feel my internal organs 🤢. But I know I will learn to accept it over time and continue to lift heavy, get stronger and compete again.

So next time you think to comment on someone’s body whether they’re coming back from having a baby or just living their life try and use phrases like “you look so healthy”, “you look really strong”, “your body moves so well with a bar” or if you’re unsure then don’t say anything at all.

Thanks to @hatch_athletic for giving in and seeing me and giving me the confidence that I knew something wasn’t right after my 6 week Drs check up. And for giving me the little exercises that I know will benefit me so much.

Reps on reps on reps

Lifting from the blocks for the first proper time for these guys to work on speed, power, and not having a clue how heavy the weight feels so you can’t get into your head.

Monday nights for the win

The reality of what you see posted by your favourite people isn’t always the reality of their life.

So next time you go to compare yourself to someone on social media remember that you’re not seeing the full picture but it’s someone’s “best lift”, “most flattering angle”, “fasted run”.

What you’re not seeing are the failed lifts, the unflattering angles, the runs they gave up on.

My weightlifting had come back pretty quickly post baby, but what you don’t see is the rehab work. The severe diastasis recti, the tummy that doesn’t look (or won’t ever look) the same as it was, the breath work or the days where I don’t have the energy/mental capacity to do any of it.

You’re all on your own journey, you’re all doing the best that you can in that moment. Keep doing you!

Give this a go…guaranteed to humble you and make you laugh 🤭

#longgametraining #newburyindies #gymuk #trainsmart #personaltrainer #newbury #britishweightlifting

We’ve had some new faces recently at our Tuesday night class - so this is just a shout out to say newbies are ALWAYS welcome 🤗

Tuesdays at 6pm and 7pm - book online

MONEY - We all think about it but no one wants to talk about it! I, more than anyone, hate talking about pricing and payments so this is not an easy message to put out.

I have been putting this off as long as possible as I am aware that a personal trainer is seen as a “luxury item” that is already at a price point that not everyone can afford however the last time I increased my prices was 3 years ago - while I imagine those of you who are employed have had pay rises/bonuses in that time. This also allows me to re-invest in new equipment to better support you.

The new price structure still comes in at the lower end of what the average PT charges in the area, but I do count myself as being highly capable in what I do. Ensuring that all your sessions are truly bespoke to you and your individual needs rather than a cookie cutter approach. I pride myself on attention to detail, focusing on any injuries/niggles you may have that need working around/improving and will never get you to do anything just for the sake of it. There is thought and reasoning behind it all even if that’s not clear to you - feel free to always ask “why” we’re doing something.

The new prices will come in to effect on 1st April 2025, all current blocks of 10 that you have are still valid until they’re used up. The new price will be on the next block you take out. I have also added a 5 session option to hopefully ease the cash flow for some of you.

I hope that I continue to add value to your lives, and want to do that further by giving those of you who take out a 10 session block access to the gym at no additional charge for you to (hopefully!) take more accountability over your training and get the odd training session done in between our sessions. Let me know if you’d like to take me up on this and I can get you set up.

All classes and gym memberships will otherwise remain at the prices they have been which also haven’t increased for a number of years.

If anyone has any concerns in regards to the new price structure do reach out to me. Thanks for coming to my ted talk and you can now watch me avoid eye contact in talking to any of you about this out of anxiety….😂

Stay strong 🤘

It’s comeback season and this is my starting point.

Let’s see what this mum of 3 boys old body can do.

Competition soon…..?

HOW TO FORMAT YOUR WORKOUT

Not sure how to set up your workout when doing a leg or arm day? This even applies to full body sessions.

Start with your compound exercises (multi-joint) heavier lifts, prioritising the most demanding movements first. Typically working in a 2-8 rep range focusing on strength or power. Take 90-120s rest between sets.

Move on to your unilateral exercises (single leg/single arm), starting on the weaker leg. Increase reps to 8-12, and decrease rest time to 60seconds between sets.
You can superset two exercises together that are either opposing muscles or the same muscle group.

Finally end with your isolation exercises - think hamstrings/quads or biceps/triceps, again super setting them together if you like. Increase reps anywhere from 10-20 reps and decrease rest time again to just 30seconds.

Short on time and not sure what to do in the gym that doesn’t require brain power, hits all muscle groups and is effective?

I’ve put together a series of videos that I’ll be putting out this week, all you have to do is pick one exercise from each video and you’ve got yourself a workout. 5 videos, 4 exercises in each, you do the maths on how many different workouts that creates.

Keep your eyes peeled and hit save on each video to bank them.

Happy birthday to this absolute legend. No one has supported more than @frankietwospots from my very first Bootcamps fresh back from Hong Kong in summer 2019, to garden training during COVID, to opening Long Game, to triathlons, retreats and every class under the sun attended.

She may turn up at least 4 minutes late to every session but you bet she’s the hardest worker in the room and ALWAYS with a smile on her face.

She really works hard to prove that anyone can have a love for fitness. 2 kids, full time job, head of PTA, parent governor and still makes time to train multiple times per week because of what it gives to her. And she is forever teaching me about skin care, fashion terminology and unintentional innuendos😂

Please drop a big happy birthday comment to this legend below!

Another 12 days of Christmas workout in the bag!

And that winds up life at Long Game for another year.

Thank you everyone for spending another year of your fitness journey with me, trusting me with whatever I throw at you, and supporting me through this return to work with my third and final baby.

It’s been a pleasure! On to 2025….the year I attempt to make a weightlifting comeback 🏋🏽‍♀️

See you back on December 30th!

Tuesday nights at Long Game are always one of my favourites. Full body bootcamp working strength, power, cardio and core. Suitable for all no matter your level, I make sure you do the things you don’t want to, to make you better at the things you do want to! All with a bit of fun and laughter thrown in to the mix.

I’ve been struggling post third pregnancy with how my body looks. This third boy stretched my tummy and caused more ab separation than the last two, and it’s left me conscious of how it looks when not held in with leggings.

Training hasn’t been optimal (or often), and morning dog walks have been handed over to my husband while I feed baby. This lack of movement has all contributed to the way I feel about my body. But I know its@not about the way it looks really, it’s about the way I feel in it. So when the opportunity arises for me to move I really try and take it. My body didn’t look any different at the end of the session to the beginning, but I FELT different. I was appreciative that I could still hit these kind of numbers. I was appreciative that I still have the mobility to lift. And most of all I was appreciative that the baby slept through it. And I didn’t once think about how it looked. Moments for me are few and far between so I enjoy them even more when they do happen and need to make sure to carve out time for it more often.

What are you doing to change the way you feel about yourself? What is your favourite “me time”?

Just over here showing that I am still showing up and working with amazing clients both new and old. From early 20s to early 70s I’ve got something for all.

Whether you want to learn weightlifting, get fitter, get stronger, rehab an injury, train for mental health, longevity or just come for baby cuddles I’m here for you.

Always spaces for newcomers in classes, gym memberships or online programming. Personal Training is currently on a waitlist so please enquire to see if we will be a good fit for each other.

To old faces - continue being you and smashing your workouts, showing up whether it’s with a smile on your face or an extra stress line you’re doing yourself proud. And thank you for putting up with baby cries/poos/vomits 😂

#longgametraining

MATERNITY LEAVE UPDATE

So originally I was due to come back to work Tuesday 1st October, but as baby decided to delay his arrival by a week, I have taken the decision to delay my return by a week and will be back Monday 7th October instead

I will be easing back into clients, with some of your days and times needing to change moving forward to allow me to run at a schedule that allows breaks to feed/change the little one so please bare with me! I will let you know on the return of classes ASAP.

New working hours mean I won’t be working Monday mornings for the foreseeable future.
Mondays: 5-8pm
Tuesdays: 9:30am-2:30pm/6-8pm
Wednesdays: 8am-2:30pm
Thursdays: 8am-2:30pm
Fridays: 8am-3pm
Saturdays: 8am-9am

New enquiries for PT welcome but please note I will have a baby in tow!

Indoor bootcamp
Gym members

What more do you need!? My books are currently closed for PT sessions but new faces to classes and gym memberships are always welcome!

28 weeks + 2 days pregnant and just working with what feels good on any given day

Here’s what I did today:

A1) banded box squats 5 x 10 up to 85kg

B1) db Romanian deadlift 3 x 12 up to 20kg x 2
B2) db quad extension 3 x 15 up to 15kg

C1) z press 3 x 10 at 20kg
C2) supported db row 3 x 10 at 15kg

Whether you’re pregnant or not, your programme should be a template that gives you room for change when needed. Whether it’s because you didn’t sleep well, you’re dehydrated, you have an injury there should always be space to pull back and adjust when needed. So listen to your body, talk to your trainer and don’t feel bound by the rules

Training at 12 weeks pregnant

My usual Olympic lifting training has been feeling difficult lately and I thought rather than let it get me down I’ll do a more traditional strength workout. Which is by no means a “pregnancy workout” but is more than safe providing you’ve already been training in the lead up to your pregnancy.

At the moment I don’t need to adapt any of my training, but I’m keeping an eye out for any coning/doming and focusing on breathing through my lifts rather than holding my breath and bracing. But as I get bigger, certain movements will have to be adapted.

I have a feeling I might ache tomorrow - no matter how strong you are, when you mix up your training it hits different!

#longgametraining #pregnancyworkout #berkshirebusiness #newbury #hungerford #workout

A Friday in the life of me….

I often get asked why I don’t extend my work hours to earlier mornings and later evenings.
Well I’m not sure how much more I can fit in to my week without burning out or sacrificing something that is important to me. I work 6 days a week around my children and dogs and my husband’s late/weekend work hours.
The schedule I have allows me to work, be there for my kids and dogs, train 3x per week and have one day a week with my husband.
It’s hard work, but it’s worth it and I’ve found the balance that works for me.
So if I say no to a prospective new client or changing session times it’s because it upsets the apple cart too much.

Today was
6:19am wake up
6:30am dog walk
7:30am leave home
8am-2pm 6 back to back clients
2pm quick training session
3pm-5pm pick up the kids, play with them, do household chores and get dinner ready
5:30pm cricket drop off
6:45pm cricket pick up
7-7:30pm kids bed time
7:30pm programme tomorrows bootcamp
8pm make dinner and eat.
9pm veg out and aim to be in bed for 10pm….🙄

Good night 😴 and thank you all for coming along for the ride.

2023, thank you!

From PT sessions, to outdoor/indoor/weightlifting classes, to podcasting, to kids classes, to gym members, to hosting my first retreat - thank you to each and every one of you who made this year what it was.

Here’s to another great year of training, laughter and probably a lot of swearing from me 😜

12 days of Christmas workout with 15 of you bright and breezy folk this morning! 🤶 🎅🏼 🎄

And that’s a wrap on 2023 at Long Game. Thank you to each and every one of you who has come to a class, had a PT, trained online or been a member of the gym or listened to the podcast. You’re the reason I do what do.

Excited to see you all continue to smash your training and exceed your goals in 2024!

Now go and enjoy the festivities with friends and family, don’t hold any guilt over your food or exercise choices. Be content that you’re nourishing yourself with memories instead.

See you all in Jan.

What a wholesome evening 🥰

Each and every one of you has shown up for yourselves, taken steps to better yourselves and get stronger, fitter and mentally happier. I feel so lucky to have so many wonderful clients supporting me, creating the most epic community of people who just want to better themselves.

Official photos back from my first weightlifting competition back in November @elitebodyworks
A shaky start missing my first snatch but finished on a high with a 54kg snatch and a 71kg PB clean and jerk.
New goals are 60kg snatch, 75kg clean and jerk…..watch this space 👀
Thanks to @core_strength_photography for the brilliant photos…note to self, don’t bite my lips so much 😂

#bwl #britishweightlifting #snatch #cleanandjerk #strongwomen #weightlifting #longgametraining #playthelonggame

Some of our group did 1RM back squat testing last night and what a night for it!!
🚨 PB’s all round 🚨 ranging from 1kg increases up to a whopping 12kg increase.
So excited to have the rest of the group test next week and see what we can add next year 🤩

Safe to say voice is a little croaky this morning 😂

FRONT RACK WARM UP

Go through this routine before any front squats or Olympic lifts and then try and tell me you can’t get your elbows higher…

Hampshire Weightlifting Champtionships 🏋🏽‍♀️

First competition in the bag and it was a whirlwind. Weighed in lighter than I expected at 51.8kgs. I was in a tough group with a lot of more experienced girls but managed to hold on to first place until the last 3 lifters who then bumped me down to 4th place finish. I wasn’t happy with my snatches but clean and jerks made up for that!

Videos in order:
1st Snatch - 51kg fail (stupid miss as I hit 50kg multiple times in warm up) 🔴🔴🔴
2nd Snatch - went up to 52kg and just scraped through with a slight press out on right elbow. ⚪️🔴⚪️
3rd Snatch - 54kg and most confident lift. ⚪️⚪️⚪️ Should have gone 55kg 😜

1st C&J - 66kg ⚪️⚪️⚪️
2nd C&J - 68kg ⚪️⚪️⚪️
3rd C&J - 71kg ⚪️⚪️⚪️ for a 3kg PB

A great first competition @elitebodyworks and will hopefully be back for more. Thanks to @ftw_4thewin for his tips in the lead up to comp day and my cheer squad on the day who absolutely carried me through it….i don’t think anyone else had 8 adults and 4 kids cheering them!

Time to get back to work…. 🪓

ABOUT THE GYM

Long Game Training was born as a result of the owner Hannah working in a collection of other gyms and finding that she was changing the way she worked to suit other business models. Something just wasn't QUITE right.

Our approach at Long Game Training is to do just that - play the long game. Provide you with a space where you can train, learn, find your WHY and enjoy the process rather than focus on a quick fix outcome.
