Joe keeping me on my toes tonight as my partner during the class at the gym

Thanks for pushing mate. On the way to to the top of the tree this kid 💯

Support

We all make mistakes; there’s always bumps in the road and we all doubt our own ability

More important to me is having a support network that I can count on and fall back to, when things don’t go as planned

Knowing that there’s someone there for you when you need them

Knowing that there’s someone who believes in your potential and who trusts in your character

This level of support could be the difference between someone pushing on to achieve great things - and someone who gives up at the first hurdle

Yes - we need our own purpose and our own drive

Yes - we need to build discipline and character through ‘living it’ ourselves

Yes - we shouldn’t live solely to please other people or rely on other peoples’ acceptance

But…

You never truly know what impact your words and your actions have on those who look up to you 👨‍👦

Im not pretending that my halo is any brighter or duller than anyone else’s

Instead I promise that I’ll always do my best to help my clients improve and help them to grow🌳 🧠 🌟

Hyrox Birmingham

First hyrox of the season and I got to take it on with the boss, my hero in fitness

I’ve learnt so much from H in such a short time around the gym and I’m forever in awe of her work ethic

To be her partner in an event like this meant the world to me ❤️🙏🏻

Performance -

We managed to finish 7th (out of 209)

Our time can and will improve from 1:11.

Anyone who’s seen us this week has seen us both struggle to fight off being unwell - we’ve both woke up today suffering and it definitely took its toll on us in our runs.

Maybe a re-run in the new year with a full camp and at 💯 H?

You can only give out what you have on on any given day and we done our best to keep pushing on.

As I’ve said before, I thrive on competition for two reasons:

Pushing through mental and physical boundaries….

Creating memories with people I care about

Birmingham definitely ticked both of these boxes ❤️🙏🏻

The team -

So proud of everyone’s efforts yesterday. Some quality performances and I appreciate everyone’s support as always.

Thanks for the brilliant photos

I want to reserve a shout out to my mate and client

Sean managed to finish 8th in his age category on his first individual hyrox - booked with only 1 week notice!

Looking forward to January in Manchester where me and Sean will be pairing together 🏃 🌬️

Form Fitness Comp

We fought through 4 events to finish 3rd yesterday in a tough field alongside some quality athletes and 29 teams

Thanks to my teammates for pushing me on and battling through the day with me.

Selfless in the work they put in. Memories made and bonds further embedded.

Thanks to for the encouragement and the guidance. There’s no one better in the fitness industry to look up to.

Thanks to everyone at the gym for the messages and the help in training, no better gym.

On a side note….

I encourage anyone who is physically able to, to compete.

It doesn’t always have to be about winning.

Sometimes it’s exactly the focus you need when you’re struggling for a path forwards.

Build resilience that will help in dealing with every aspect of your life outside the gym.

Test your physical and mental strength. Give yourself more of a reason to be proud of yourself.

Really proud day today as these went to compete at their first interclub 🙏🏻💚🖤

Just the start for these but they all took in the atmosphere, the instructions, the noise and with the pressure of people watching like they’ve been doing it for years

Thanks to for having us down
