Leigh Graham Fitness

Wow! It was already three years ago that I launched my first online fitness program and had a huge wave of keen and wonderful clients hop in and go for it straight away, So much learning and growing since then, and always more excitement coming down the pipes!

The world lost another absolute gem last week. It’s always hard to say goodbye to very special people that I’ve worked closely with... it’s impossible not to get attached! So many great memories with my client Clive- our rapport was so special that everyone thought we were related. ... One fun memory was captured in the first picture, when I joked that I wanted him to work harder in his fitness warmup but I simultaneously ‘needed a break’. So I had him push me around the residence in his walker!! I’m happy to have known you You will be missed.

Where we were last year and the one before on this day... we will meet again, beach!

A while back during this time working from home, I filmed a full 30-minute video class on how to alleviate back pain. It is suitable for the senior population, or anyone needing help with back pain. I know it can benefit a lot of people who want to get moving gently and carefully at home. I would like to offer it as a gift for Christmas If you or someone you know needs some specialized exercises taught and demonstrated by ME, send me a dm or drop a comment below and I will send it your way!

‘Listen to your body’. My clients know this is one of my favourite expressions. It has become our collective mantra. My job, as I see it, is partly to be able to intuitively tune in to what each individual can do THAT day. Some days we light it up and go all out! Some days we need to lay back. Do you know what your body is telling you? Love to help you find out. It’s kind of my thing.

My remarkable friend and client starring in this telling and true documentary. 10 mins well spent, my friends.

Every morning I wake up and write three things that I’m grateful for (which sometimes snowballs into more), three things that would make this day amazing, and a statement beginning with ‘I am’ that reminds me of my strengths and what I have to offer others. Wanna know something? My clients often make my gratitude list. Not only have I been able to do something I love for 17 years, but I tend to attract the gems. When private training, I seem to always be in the presence of an...other person who inspires me with their efforts, results, and way of being in the world. While I work with many inspiring younger people, working with seniors has been SUCH a gift and a JOY in my career. I aim to help them see what’s possible for themselves, and they in turn show me what’s possible over time and years. As a result, I’m not afraid of aging. I’ve seen so many beautiful, strong, gracious, wise, funny, kind, badass examples of what it means to be ‘older’. If you haven’t seen examples of that yourself, I urge you to look for role models for fitness and wellness in their 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and even triple digits! Trust me, they are out there. If you need any help, I got some people you should meet. See more

You are a person who has goals and dreams. You have some resources and some time now to make it happen, but you feel as though you’re making very little headway toward your future self because something always gets in the way. Does it really though? When something seemingly gets in the way of your commitment to yourself, IS it worthy of becoming the new priority? ...Continue reading

I know many of you are home from work right now, due to the virus advisories. If you choose to work on some movement and/or mindfulness during this time, feel free to hit me up for a FaceTime or Zoom session. Keep your mind and your body happy.

Transformations happen by putting one foot in front of the other. Once you reach a goal, keep going and you will continue to see new and amazing possibilities open up in front of your eyes. Just because you can’t see the finished product or version of you yet, doesn’t mean it’s not out there... Start taking steps and the next ones will appear. And look at this inspiration below for fuel.
