BEST MOMENTS

"Practice makes perfect."

"Sleep, eat, train, repeat. That is literally my life at the moment and I am loving every minute of it."

"Being strong instead of skinny is the right way around, not necessarily the right way around, but it's going to be so much healthier for them in the future instead of just trying to be making ourselves the smallest possible versions of ourselves."

"I'm actually quite good at the tyre flip now. Dare I say, I'm going to be a world record holder of the tyre flip. How hilarious is that?"

HOST BIO

Lou's personal journey with body confidence and food struggles began at the age of 15, where overeating and guilt around food consumed her. But everything changed during the lockdown in March 2020. Determined to regain control, Lou immersed herself in research, found joy in working out in her garden, and started tracking her nutrition and steps. Surprisingly, she lost a stone in less than three months and discovered a newfound love for fitness.

Fueling her passion, Lou pursued personal training qualifications and launched her Instagram page in September 2020. After months of building a solid foundation, branding, and gaining relevant expertise, she started helping others achieve what once felt impossible—losing fat, feeling empowered, and loving the journey without restrictions. With numerous success stories, digital products, and a thriving membership program called Train with Lou, Lou now coaches, teaches, and learns about food, exercise, and mindset.
