Ep123. Why Doing âEverything Rightâ Still Takes Time. Fat Loss Expectations Explained
In this episode, I break down realistic expectations and timelines around fat loss and muscle building, using evidence from large-scale studies rather than gym myths or before-and-after culture.
We talk about why progress often feels slow even when youâre doing everything ârightâ, how fat loss actually shows up over months not weeks, and why building or even maintaining muscle during a calorie deficit is harder than most people are told.
If youâve ever felt frustrated, impatient, or like you must be failing because results arenât instant, this episode will help you reframe the process, stay consistent, and focus on the habits that genuinely lead to long-term change.

Ep122. Before and after Hyrox Manchester. Hayley & Naomi talk the highs and lows
This episode was recorded in two very different moments.
One, the night before HYROX.
When the work is done, nerves are high, and doubt is still loud.
The other, immediately after crossing the finish line.
Breathless, emotional, and stripped back to what actually matters.
In this conversation, Hayley and Naomi talk honestly about what it feels like to stand on the edge of something hard, and what changes when you finally do it.
This isnât about race times or performance breakdowns.
Itâs about the shift that happens when you show up anyway.
The wobble before.
The clarity after.
And the confidence that only comes from action, not preparation.
This episode is for anyone who thinks they need to feel ready first.
You donât.
You do it anyway.
I love helping clients see their real potential and what they are actually capable of, as always you can register your interest with 1:1 coaching here (https://form.typeform.com/to/jrK4W06r)
