Ronaldo... The G.O.A.T?

Hey guys, thought I'd change it up a bit this week with the champions league quarter finals on. Who saw THAT goal against Juventus last night? Incredible just incredible. 

Question of the week. Is Ronaldo the greatest of all time? After that wonder strike yesterday in Real Madrid's hammering of Juventus it's hard to say no. I have to say I'm not the biggest Ronaldo fan but that goal... Sheer class. The technique, precision, awareness to be able to pull that off in the biggest competition in Europe is very impressive. As the commentator said "He had no right to score that" and it's hard to disagree. Check it out for yourself and prepare to be amazed. 

This picture says it all. For a player who is at the best of the game, this is pure magic. The picture speaks a thousand words. All soccer fans can come together in awe of this goal. It's not something you can hate no matter who you support. 

Next up... Liverpool V Manchester City and Barcelona V Roma. Who will come out on top? Who are you backing to progress into the semi-finals? Let me know in the comments.

Hey guys, really sorry for the lack of posts recently, it's been a really hectic time for me with work and training but don't worry I have lots of posts planned for the next few weeks as the badminton season draws closer.  For this post, I am just reflecting on a great pre-seasons training over the summer months as the badminton season kicks off again next week!

Does listening to music improve your workout?!?

Hey guys, sorry it's been a while since my last post, I have been really busy with starting a new job but i'm ready to get back into it again! In this post I will outline 6 key benefits of listening to music while working out. I always listen to music when working out, especially when running or in the gym and here's why... Music is a good kind of distraction: A study showed that there is more to listening to music than just distraction but it did show that participants who listened to music while working out were less aware of their exertion. A distraction like this has been proven to enhance athletic performance by up to 15 percent. It ups your effort: Listening to music is a key component in my workouts and I find it helps me put in that extra ounce of effort! A study showed that cyclists who listen to music while working out actually work harder when listening to fast music rather than slow music. Songs between 120 and 140 beats per minute were suggested to ha...

My Parents, My Coach and I - When is enough enough?!?

Hey guys, sorry for the lack of posts in the last while it has been a really busy time for me with work and training but I'm back and excited to post some of the topics I have been working on!   For this post anyway, I have decided to discuss briefly about how you can develop your game as a player and how key individuals such as family, friends and coaches in particular can play a role. I think that it is very difficult to get the balance between how much interaction you need. For example, "Do you need you parents at the back of the court?" This can be up for discussion and if I am being totally honest a discussion that could go on for years and years. There is no right or wrong answer. As children, we tend to like having someone at the back of the court or on the sideline to cheer us on and give us that extra bit of motivation. But how much is enough? For me, I grew up having my mum, a great badminton player herself to coach me and I am forever thankful to her for t...
