\nHIIT class at ‘Work It’ London, is a high intensity interval training class that takes place for 45 minutes. You can expect circuited station or group work using 80% of your maximum heart rate for 15-20 minutes broken down. The class is best for people short on time or people that want to burn loads of fat – you can burn up to 800 calories per class and keep burning for another 24-36 hours.<\/p>\n
\nI guess my fitness journey began when my mum took me to the playground. As long as I can remember I\u2019ve been doing some sort of sport training or activity, starting with karate at the age of 4.<\/p>\n
\nHelping people is what I love most about my job. When people reach targets or I can assist them in any way, it gives me a great sense of satisfaction.<\/p>\n
\nI’d say to go against what I’ve been told by most people in my field. Most people in any specialised field go by what courses have taught them or what may be the easiest quick fix solution and not by scientific fact. For example eggs are the highest source of protein per gram is taught to 90% of PT nutrition courses but this is not true. Spirulina, for example, is a much better option.<\/p>\n
\nI try to find inspiration from everywhere, but my main inspiration would be the people I try to surround myself with – friends, family, training and work buddies.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/image2-300x200.jpg\")

\nNever a dull moment when training a group or 1-2-1 sessions! Off the top of my head I can remember a day last week where I demoed an exercise and accidentally synchronised with the music. That prompted everybody to exercise to the timing of the music for most of the class! It was funny and a good workout… lol!<\/p>\n
\nResults, fun and all round well-being education.<\/p>\n
\nGetting used to a routine and getting comfortable. After a while, your routine will become easier as you get used to it. You need to change your routine and shock your body so you can be progressive.<\/p>\n
\nI think HIIT is one of the best workouts to incorporate into your daily life as it is the optimal way to burn fat. 70% of my personal training is with women who I find, for the most part, like their bone structural shape and just want to lose the little bits of fat around it and HIIT is ideal for this.<\/p>\n
\nAt work it we have yoga, boxing and strength work classes also. I’d say boxing would be my favourite and 80% of the trainers have a real ‘in ring’ experience.<\/p>\n
\nOutdoor calisthenics as you can do so much with your body as far as movements and exercise variation.<\/p>\n
\nAlways fruit as it eliminates the waste from your digestion tract. It’s easily digestible and very easy to make first thing in the morning. I always make sure i have variety, Yesterday I had Granadilla, Dragon Fruit and Papaya. Here’s a pic…<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Daniel5-300x300.jpg\")
\nMy favourite pre workout snack would be fresh coconut water, as it is filled with electrolytes and essential minerals. My favourite post work out snack would be spirulina as there is literally nothing with more protein in it on earth. <\/p>\n
\nDr Sebi, Wim Hof and Anthony Joshua.<\/p>\n
\nMy mum and dad have influenced me the most. My mum, who is a nutritionist, has cooked for autistic families for over 15 years and my dad has been a tree surgeon all his life. Both taught me so much about food, nature and how to make the most of them. This is why I have been a vegan for almost 3 years and I haven\u2019t been sick in 4 years (not even a stuffy nose) and I am the first point of contact for lots of clients, friends and family when they are sick or in need of something holistic.<\/p>\n
\nI prioritise my wellbeing first! If I notice I\u2019m working too much I stop, if I haven\u2019t been out on the town in a while I go out and if I\u2019m being lazy I join gym buddies or classes for some extra motivation.<\/p>\n
\nA perfect wellness day in London for me would be… a green machine smoothie at Planet Organic, then a 30 min walk across Hyde Park to Wholefoods where I can shop and get a great plant based lunch before I walk through Holland Park to London spa in Kensington new pools.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/healthylivinglondon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/Daniel4-300x200.jpg\")

\nThe China Study by T. Colin Campbell. This book is the biggest study in nutrition in my opinion. It discusses its research about meat and dairy diets and how they have proven links to specific diseases. I recommend anyone interested in nutrition to read this book.<\/p>\n
\nI practise regular self-refection as I think it\u2019s important to get the best version of you.<\/p>\n
\n Some of my favourites are… \u2018as above as below\u2019, \u2018no guts no glory\u2019 and \u2018is that you or your ego\u2019.<\/p>\n
\nJamaica! Need I say more?<\/p>\n
\nChocolate cake.<\/p>\n
