I received an email this morning from G, she told me that my emails inspire her each day when they ping in.  

A success rather than a failure, I'd say.  However, she then asked about and assumed that we couldn't help with just nutrition on it's own.  Not much of a failure, I hope you are saying :)

From my point of view it is, I write these messages pretty much every day for a number of reasons.

1.  I've got a lot of words in my head that I need to get out.

2.  I think the information contained can help people to achieve more from their fitness and nutrition plans if they implement it.  I'm generally trying to make the world a better place.

3.  To show you that we actually know what we're talking about at Team Achieve and that if you like what I write you may join us or buy one of our products to help you (we are a business after all).

And that is where the failure is; here is someone who wants help which we can provide yet didn't know that we provided that service.

Don't worry I'm not going to start spamming you with sales blabber every day.  I will let you know what we actually do though beyond the realm of bootcamps.

To answer G's question - yes we do offer an online nutrition only plan.  I actually wrote The Real Food Plan to be an online implementation programme after I realised lots of people were struggling with food but were happy with the exercise programme they were following. 

I used it with my 1-1 clients and tweaked it to work in our bootcamp programme.  I even made it in to an online bootcamp too.  The problem however, was the fact that I didn't actually tell anybody about it other than the people we were already working with.  

Major failure and not the way to change the world :)

We also have gluten-free, diabetic friendly recipe books that are full of meals that actually taste good and are easy to prepare.  I love food and taste was the main driver when we developed the books.

I spoke to someone at the gym a couple of weeks ago who was going home to have Lentil Curry, I said that sounded good and they replied, 'it should be, it's your recipe' :) 

His family regularly has meals from our books and the kids love them, although apparently it's a struggle to get kids to eat healthy food.  It's not.  It just needs to have some flavour.

Our products and service are scattered all over the internet at the moment, over the next week I'll sort out our main website to include our services and make it easier for you to see exactly what we do.

For now, if there is ever anything you want me to write about or you have a specific thing you need help with, let me know.

If Team Achieve can't help you, we will know somebody with integrity that can.

P.S. Simple exercise for the Lent Challenge today but it will be tough.  40 Static Lunges each leg at a 4-1-2 tempo, ouchie.
