BBC Radio Scotland - Fit in 5, Motivation and Unexpected Obstacles

Tom Urie gathers together all the support you need to help you get fitter and healthier. This week, tips on tackling unexpected obstacles and keeping motivation high.

Weight-loss hero Tom Urie presents a new, five-part series packed full of information and advice, to help you to get fitter and healthier in 2019.

Fitness expert Ross Stewart and nutritionist Carla Robertson are on board each week, offering simple tips and setting achievable goals for the days ahead … and we’ll be charting the progress of our three Fit In 5 volunteers Sam, Paul and Ali.

In the third programme, the volunteers will be updating us on how they got on with last week’s fitness and food challenges and sharing how they’re feeling at the half way mark.

Ross explores the kind of obstacles we can all face in our journey to get fit and how to find ways to overcome them … plus tips on how to keep our motivation up.  He’ll also be demonstrating three more simple exercises we can all incorporate into our lives and suggesting a walking challenge for this week.

Carla shows us how to make a simple iced raspberry mousse, the ideal treat for when you want to find something sweet but that still ticks the boxes on nutrition.
