Sharpen Your Axe

Have you started off 2017 with a fitness resolution?

If so…

is this a complete reboot for you?

Maybe you’ve spent a few months, even years, of doing nothing? No training hard, no eating right?

First off, WELL DONE.

I’m proud of anyone who’s confident enough to stand up and say “I’m not happy and I want to improve!”

That takes guts.

But here’s the problem:

Death of The Holiday Diet

I overheard something CRAZY yesterday

Yet thinking about it, it’s a phrase I hear ALL the damn time

Maybe you’ve even said it…..?

“I’m going on holiday in 6 weeks, better start going to the gym”

SH*T

5 Stages of Being AVERAGE

But hey, the truth hurts right?

So spend 5 mins reading this and be truly honest with yourself

WHEN Should I See Progress?

I get this a lot, clients and friends who are on a new exercise regime approach me with a worried grin and say the exact same phrase, one filled with doubt and laced with the anxious tone of one who has lost their direction...

"I don't feel like I'm making any progress"

How To 10X Your Fitness Results...

One benefit I've always had since starting out in fitness

Is that I've always trained the 'right' way

There's so much confusion about what the right way is in fitness

Because on the one hand; you've got scientists, coaches, athletes

....people who study and practice what GETS RESULTS

On the other hand; you've got entrepreneurs, businesspeople and salesmen

...people who study what MAKES MONEY

Lost your Way in Fitness and Diet?

So there I was, grabbing my rolls of belly fat, staring at my body in the mirror....

....upset at my lack of 'sexy bod'. AGAIN.

After perhaps the most consistent 4 month training period of my life starting March this year

I'd built incredible strength levels, added 4kg of muscle, dieted down for a holiday this summer

Then I'm seemingly back at square one!

And On The Seventh Day God said... "Sit Down And Rest Will You?!"

When approaching an exercise program we all come across problems of our own creation, often these are due to urban myths, bro science or simply a misunderstanding of how the body works and responds to exercise.

Think back to the last time you planned a new exercise regime, it may have been the first time back at it after a long period off or it could have been a plan to take the next step up in your training. I bet you went through and planned out each and every days exercise... Am I right?
