So I got a confession to make....

I've started training hard (6 days per week) for muscle gain.

And the other day I found myself panicking about not being muscular enough.

Or more specifically, not gaining muscle FAST enough.

A lot of my clients have the same thoughts when it comes to fat loss....

Why can't this happen FASTER arghh??!!!

Anyway, fortunately I did two things to stop myself stressing and to stay focused.

3 IMPORTANT BENEFITS OF STRENGTH TRAINING

Ryan started our personal training program a few months ago....

....and he crushed 3 of our strength records in his first 12 weeks!

Just so you grasp the gravity of what I'm saying - these are records set over the past 7 years by hundreds of men and women!

a silly story about getting in shape...

every year I CONVINCE myself that I'm 'not in too bad of a shape'

I'm confident about my body and always have been

But as those calendar days get crossed off...

....as my holiday gets closer and closer....

I start to doubt myself.

I look in the mirror and start pinching and grabbing my belly fat and love handles

I take 'before' pictures and set out a ridiculously low calorie diet for myself

I promise myself that 'just 4 weeks' of no cheat meals is doable

I commit to training 5 days a week for 4 weeks

and at the end of 4 weeks, you know what happens?

How to Build More Muscle and Strength

Most people struggle with building muscle more than any other goal

You may think fat loss is hard to achieve?

Maybe you can’t improve on your pull-up strength?

Is your nutrition and meal prep overwhelming you and not getting done at the moment?

Well…

ALL of those areas pale in comparison to building muscle.

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?
