Only gone and made it to the final week of my Zwif

Only gone and made it to the final week of my Zwift training plan, aint I?! 🎉...it's a win for me as my focus has been on consistency. Massively proud to have not missed a session (2 per week) even when some of them felt worse than anything in my entire life 😂🤣I'm still gonna be riding indoors for structured training, because although the good weather graced us recently... it was brief, huh?! So if the 🌴☀️ tropical vibes won't come to me, I'll bring them with my kit 😝 ...this sets gets nothing less than 10/10, right?!And, before you scroll...📌This Saturday 17th April, @georgiabeavenyoga and I will be going live here on Instagram at 915am for 45mins of yoga, including 5 minutes of breathwork and a 10 minute guided meditation 🤩📌 For all the Zwifters, we'll then be riding at 1045am - route will be Serpentine 8 for the badge, but you can do a training plan workout in the meet up too! If you wanna come ride with us, follow me on Zwift - Elle Linton - and then drop me a dm so I can send the invite!📌 oh and I think my event focus this year is gonna be on Duathlon! It's been a while since I've done one - it was on the cards for 2020 but... 👀 ...lots of tips on the blog for aspiring Duathletes which I'll also be reading to refresh my memory!ʜᴏᴡ ᴀʀᴇ ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴛʀᴀɪɴɪɴɢ ᴘʟᴀɴꜱ ɢᴏɪɴɢ?! ᴅᴏɴ'ᴛ ꜱᴜᴘᴘᴏꜱᴇ ʏᴏᴜ'ʀᴇ ᴅᴏɪɴɢ ᴀ ᴅᴜᴀᴛʜʟᴏɴ ᴛᴏᴏ ᴛʜɪꜱ ʏᴇᴀʀ?!#livcommitted #ridehereridenow #livcyclinguk #ukcyclechat #thisgirlcan #thisgirlcanessex #representationmatters #womenscycling #pedalpower #cyclinglife #turbotrainer #indoortraining #indoorcycling #gozwift #ridelikeagirl #consistencyiskey #buildingabase #turbotraining #gozwiftcycling #zwiftcycling #paincave #lovetoride #blackgirlsdobike #zwift #nevernotriding #cyclingblogger #wahooligan #myrival #WhyIWattbike #WattbikeAtom

So how was your Monday?! Did you gym, swim... go get your hair done?!Mine was pretty much the same as last week tbh and I don't see that changing for a while. I've loved connecting with humans far wider than my one gym class a week allowed... and I've loved keeping my eats and treats local too...So my online classes will be around for as long as y'all keep coming 😝 ...with the goal being to get strong to run, ride + max out recovery 💥Tomorrows class highlight is HardCore... core strength won't have played a massive role when you've been cycling indoors. But when you get outdoors, your core is working to keep you balanced, it’s working to ensure you can relax your grip and arms, as well as for good coordination.Online classes are great if you're still WFH... which is nowhere near the gym...Or you can just save yourself that commute time sometimes... roll out of bed and onto your mat, right?!TUESDAYS

There's some content on the blog too but it needs updating so I've taken a few snaps and caught up with Master Trainer @carolinepearce to get the lowdown on how PP training has evolved since I stopped teaching.ʏᴏᴜ ᴀ ꜰᴀɴ ᴏꜰ ᴛʀᴀɪɴɪɴɢ ᴏɴ ᴀ ᴘᴏᴡᴇʀᴘʟᴀᴛᴇ?! It used to be the loneliest piece of equuipment in the gym because not many people knew how to use it, or what to do on it. Secret is... you can do anything on a PowerPlate that you do off a PowerPlate 🤷🏾‍♀️𝗡𝗼 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗣𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲?! 𝘕𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘭𝘦𝘮. I lead a 30min core class twice a week - Fridays are free of charge - hit me up for info or link in bio to booooook. I also have a weekly on-demand catch up pass you can get for all classes for the price of a coffee ☕️Core exercises are so important especially if you wanna become a stronger runner or cyclist! Can find plenty of inspo on my blog too. A strong core is for life, not just for... fun 😉 ...got a fav core exercise or workout?!📷 @fordtography#forabetteryou #teammeglio #PowerPlateMOVE #GetOnPowerPlate #PowerPlate #fitnessequipment #homeworkout #coreworkout #corestrength #abschallenge #onlinefitness #londonpersonaltrainer #fitnessblogger #thisgirlcan #thisgirlcanessex #zoomworkouts #onlineworkouts #homeworkouts #fitnesschallenge #amazonfashion #liketkit @liketoknow.it @liketoknow.it.europe #LTKfit #LTKeurope

Finally, 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺, made it over to Windsor to sample the infamous Cinnamon Buns on Sunday with @jersey_girl08 and I was not disappointed! We were blessed with the most beautiful day... with plenty of people to watch as we sat in the sun eating our bakes and sipping what was the best coffee I've had in as long as I can remember!And I was too busy riding, enjoying the view to rememeber to take any pictures while actually on the bike 🙈 and before I knew it, it was time to head home to roll out the weekend with the Rollin' With My Foamies crew 🥰NEWS!! 🎉I officially became a #wahooligan so this was the perfect chilled out ride to test the ELEMENT ROAM bike computer, which seamlessly connected with the power meter on my bike giving me even more data to geek out on for my outdoor rides 🙌🏾 ...it sits so nicely on the bike that you can't even see it in the picture 💥So, I took a rest day yday, and this evening I'm off to a skills session with @velociposse for the first time since I joined! ...can't say the weather is making me feel good about leaving the house but, here I go... 😅🥲#myrival @wahoofitnessofficial #thisgirlcan #representationmatters #LivCOMMITTED #LivCyclingUK #stravacycling #livambassador #fromwhereiride #roadbikegirl #ridehereridenow #ukcyclechat #bikeisbest #lovetoride #womenscycling #blackgirlsdobike #livlangma #livcycling #cyclingblogger #cyclinglife #lifelooksbetter #adventureproof #exploremore #kasksport #rideliferidegiant #duathlontraining #beginnerduathlon #chapeaucycling

[AD] It's funny how notable what we see as failure

[AD] It's funny how notable what we see as failures (at the time) can become, huh?! 😅My most recent is from just a couple years ago when I failed one of my final exams for my MSc.When I sat down to think about it, and make a plan, I actually figured out that it wasn't worth retaking the exam (as marks are capped) and went for the compensated fail so I could focus on my other modules.Overall, I still got a Distinction (the highest award) for my MSc despite everything 🎉It's only from past "failures" and strategies I've come up with, that I've come to realise failure isn't something we need to avoid.And I'm not alone in my thinking. The @britisharmy sees failure differently too. In Army training, failure isn't a reason to quit, but a way to learn and grow, in order to win when it really matters. It’s only by failing, learning and growing, that soldiers can become their best.My top tips for dealing with failure are:
- allow yourself a set amount of time to sulk
- try to learn from your mistakes
- open up about your situation
- make a plan
- don’t let it stop you from trying againWhat tips or strategies would you add?! And is there a 'failure' that you can now look back on as a learning experience?!#FailLearnWin

[AD] When it comes to movie night, there's soooo much to decide... like, which flavour popcorn?! What to wear?! ...what movie to watch?!🍿I couldn't decide between @metcalfessnacks cinema sweet or sea salt popcorn 🤔 ...and then you want me to share?! I can do that, with me, myself and I 🤣😂🤣🙈 So let's decide:👗 what to wear... are you team "wear what you wore all day" or team "change into pyjamas / something more comfy"?!📼 movie recommendations... I highly recommend Coming 2 America for some old skool faces, good tunes and 'don't take life too seriously' jokes.So what choose you?! Whats snacks, outfits and movies make staying in the new going out for you?!#MetcalfesSnacks#easysnack #healthytreat #documentyourdays #whatveganseat #veganeats #athome #acornerofmyhome #fitfoodie #healthyfoodshare #eatwellbewell #foodstagram #londonbloggers #movienight #foodblogger #eatingforinsta #comfortfood #snacksonsnacks #snackstagram #snacks #popcorn #popcorn🍿#popcornlover
