FITNESS | What’s in my gym bag?

23/05/2016

Apart from fitness apps and actually wanting to get into a shape, another thing that gets me motivated to work out is all the pretty gear.  Of course no one really cares what you look like at the gym, but for me personally it helps to have nice workout gear to wear.

05/05/2016

Yesterday, I discreetly plugged my headphones into my phone on my lunch break at work and, expecting something upbeat but not surprising, typed up a blog post whilst listening to Busted’s first song in 12 years. I was wrong. Their new single, Coming Home, is surprising – then again, the three-piece that hail from Southend-On-Sea have been announcing lots of surprises lately. No one expected them to reform.…
