PROGRESS

Is what you need in order to have more motivation to

Do your workouts

And all the things you know you should be doing

(that you're not doing now) 👀,

Cause otherwise it´s hard if you´re not sure you ARE doing the right things in the gym

Most people are trying different things in the gym every week

To see what works what not

But because they never stay consistent enough, they just can´t seem to figure it out

We track progress with clients

It´s something I make sure we do every week, just to give my clients the clarity and confidence they are ON TRACK to achieve their goals

And if not, we can always have a chat 📱

Kim was my very first client when I started PT 3 years ago.

Her program was pretty simple, and basic.

But I remember 1 thing she absolutely nailed.

Consistency

And it payed off

You only need to commit for 3-6 months

And I'll make sure you will never need another PT again

If you're ready to invest in yourself - why wait longer?

3 new clients joined the team last week, excited to get them the results they're after 🤩

Looking to take on 2 more clients this month 📈

Is it going to be YOU? 👉🏼

SEND me a DM and let's talk plan 🖥

Weekends 🎉 🎉

Catch ups

We're about to attack the clubs

LOL 🥃🥂🍻🍺

Top Sunday

Paintball 🔫 🎨

Well spent Sunday boys! Left a few bruises but well worth it!

Couldn't finish off the week better! Now time for shower dinner and well deserved chill

Was meant to train today but this was a better workout let me tell you that

Hope everyone's done something fun this weekend!

Catch u later

You already have

What it takes to succeed.

No matter if it´s to get in shape,

or just to be good at what you love doing the most..

Yes, some people have their 'unfair advantage' but you have yours too!

It´s your MINDSET

That´s the one and most important thing you have to focus on.

That one thing that can change everything.

Put blinkers on everything else, such as limiting believes and negative thinking because those don´t serve you well.

The worst mistake people make I think is generally not believing in themselves..

Accepting that it´s gonna be s**t or hard forever..

I mean, come on! We only live once so might as well choose a positive approach to life over the negative..

No it won´t be s**t forever....

But sometimes it requires a bit of hard work, especially when you´re just starting out

Focusing on little improvements every day, every week, every month is key

Remember everything gets easier the more you do it. Things like planning food ahead or dragging yourself to the gym will become your second nature.

It will become a lifestyle

Trying to change everything on Day 1 might be a bit too much

So going from 0 workouts a week to 5 is probably not going to happen..

Anyway, if you've made some progress in any aspect of your life in the past 6 months, you're doing well!

If not, might be just about time to put the work in!

Home sweet home 🏡

This is Mo

Mo reached out to me because he felt like he´d tried every plan and diet, but it would never get him anywhere.. and he was worried it would only get worse. To be fair, it would, if he never asked for help.

Mo used to feel like he always had to force himself to workout in order to get the desired results.

Every time he tried, he would drop off after a few weeks. Never sustained it. Why?

Mainly because Mo just didn´t know what to do in the gym.

He wasn´t sure:

- how often he should train
- what training split is the best
- how much cardio he should do

Mo felt frustrated and he pretty much gave up trying..

You know when you make progress but then you blow it all over the weekend cause you partied too much and and then feel like you´re back to square 1 on Mondays? I´m sure you´ve been there... Everyone has... me too..

Mo wanted to get to a point where this becomes less a chore and more a routine.

Mo only wanted to train 3x a week, NO CARDIO. He hates cardio..

I promised Mo that this time we do things right and that I will teach him how to get in shape without sacrificing life.

We keep things simple, we don´t count calories burned, we don´t do hours of cardio and he only spends in the gym about 4 hours of total time each week.

We prioritize technique in the gym over load, many do the opposite..

At the end of the journey, Mo realised that not only had he got in his best shape of his life, but he can now go out and enjoy life, knowing he´s got things under control and that the more he does it, the easier it gets.

If you want to know more about how you could get similar results like Mo, comment below RESULTS or shoot me a DM and let´s see what´s possible for you in next 6 months!

PS.: Want to get in the best shape of your life for November´s PHOTOSHOOT?

I used to free-style with training

I would just get to the gym, do a few exercises, mainly just to exhaust myself, sometimes I would feel the muscles working, some days not..

Mainly because I wasn´t sure if I was doing it right

Didn´t have the confidence to do the big compound lifts, they always looked scary to me watching someone else doing it..

I would just do what felt alright and what I knew I could do.

NO trying to do better
NO pushing myself beyond what I was comfortable with
NO motivation to train (training was boring)

I had zero structure in what I was doing.

I didn´t know what I was supposed to do next time, next week, next month, no goals in place

This went on for a few months.. I was making some progress, but I knew I was missing out on a lot of potential, costing me a lot of time and effort, and frustration.

Trying to figure things out myself would take me forever, I would get there, but would take much longer..

The worst handbrake when trying to get results in the gym is just NOT KNOWING what to do

It got to a point where I was fed up with ´show up and see what happens´ approach

Working with a Personal Trainer in my early days of training gave me exactly what I needed.

CLARITY
KNOWLEDGE
CONFIDENCE

That I was doing the right things in the gym and only those.

During this period, I made the biggest progress ever.

I used to be skinny 70 kg, and a structured training and diet helped me get to 80 kg, which was a huge confidence boost for me.

I then realised I wanted to start helping others. Mainly, because I know what the guys in the gym feel like, I´ve been there too..

Maybe you´re just starting out or already training, but the results are just slower than you expected

And you´re not sure what you´re doing wrong.

Don´t worry - I´m here to help you

DM me RESULTS and let´s have a chat about what you´re struggling with the most!

What´s the difference between these two?

Calories? Same..

Are they both going to fill you up the same? Probably not..

But here´s how Questions like: What´s the best to eat for .... can be difficult to answer.

Looking at the flapjack itself you´d think it´s sugar and bad food and stuff.. not healthy etc, but what if you want to enjoy a bit of sweet, have calories left so you have a flapjack.. Are you going to blow your progress in the gym because of it? I don´t think so..

Yeah that chicken with potatoes, and some veg, maybe a little sauce that´s probably going to fill you up more.

You will likely get more protein out of it than a flapjack..

But provided you can be sensible, I don´t think there´s an issue

I actually think you should be allowed some of it so it´s not too boring

And that´s what I like to give my clients too, a bit of freedom.. 10-20% can be fun food..

Nobody wants to eat chicken rice brocolli 3x a day, right?

I think it creates a bad relationship with food and that´s what I would called unhealthy

I believe it´s much smarter to learn how to not only hit the numbers but also enjoy food, so it becomes your lifestyle

Just so it doesn´t feel like a diet that never ends...

Are you trying to lose weight but you´re just BORED of your diet?
