It’s the big man’s birthday🐶

12 years old and still going… slow😂

Winston spent most of his life fat due to some of his owners feeding him a few too many treats and him not wanting to go on long walks.

But when he was getting too big what did we do? Restrictive juice diets? Keto? Excessive HIIT?

No. We fed him a bit less and walked him a bit more.

Exactly the same as I would recommend to any person looking to lose weight.

Now I understand that the method of doing so will differ person to person (or pooch to pooch) but don’t let anyone convince you that the process of losing fat comes down to anything else.

Anyway, happy birthday Pooch🙏🎉

Anyone else find that the sun makes you want to eat more fruit?

And no… strawberry daiquiris and other such cocktails don’t count😂

Lose that last bit of stomach fat?
Hit that PB?
Build all the muscle you’d ever wanted to?
Feel the way you’d always wanted to feel?
Achieve your ‘dream’ result?

Too often, people don’t go after their goals because they feel it’s too far out of their grasp. Their goal seems so far away and therefore unattainable.

The funny thing is, most of the time if people manage to find something that actually works, they’re more than likely to stick with it! It’s only when people jump on a completely unsustainable method (which unfortunately happens a lot) that they bail before they achieve what they want.

Once people understand and apply fundamental training and nutrition principles, they realise that they can achieve anything! It’s just a matter of time and consistency.

Don’t allow yourself to feel like you can’t achieve your goal anymore.

All you have to do is learn the basics and apply them and you could lose that last bit of stomach fat, hit the PB, get huge, feel the way you want to about yourself. Achieve your DREAM result!

Often times, all it takes is a few months to get you started.

What’s your dream result?

One of the biggest struggles people face when trying to lose fat is knowing where to start.

It’s something that this guy faced time and time again for years.

He felt guilty whenever someone saw him eating chocolate or drinking a coke.

Sluggish whenever he had to do any exercise.

Like he always had to wear a certain fit of t shirt in order to hide his body.

All the while constantly starting ‘diet X’ or ‘workout Y’ having no clue why it wouldn’t just work!

And honestly, I can’t blame him for not knowing what to do with all the noise in the online fitness industry!

I built my new coaching program around helping people fix this issue. It was designed to help people like him (me 7 years ago in case it wasn’t obvious😅) to cut through the bu****it and understand the systems and principles that work!

Are you struggling with knowing where to start on your journey? If so, comment or DM and I’ll give you some details on how to get started!

How many times have you told yourself this was the year you were going to do it?

To lose fat?
Start getting strong?
Commit to the gym?
Commit to your ‘diet’?
Finally feel better about yourself?

It’s something that I struggled with myself as I started off with my own journey. I was on and off my diet and training for years before finally managing to stick with it.

The reason that I finally managed to get anywhere is because I spend hours and hours over the course of years building my knowledge, making mistakes and stressing about trying to learn everything while also getting on with everything else life had to throw at me.

It was pretty overwhelming but I got there in the end.

That’s what the beginners bible was designed to help you skip. It will help you bypass all of that effort so that you can just get on with the tasks that will actually get you the result that you want.

If you want to finally get a leg up on your fitness journey without having to fork out £££ on 1:1 coaching, this is the course for you.

If you want to learn more about the course, comment or DM the word NOW and we can chat about more about it🙏

How are you getting on with your 2022 goals so far?

We’re halfway through the year now and it’s absolutely flown by😬

Remember, it’s never too late. Whatever goals you set, whatever plans you’ve made, whatever you said you would do, there’s still time!

Just. Get. Started.

Motivation is fleeting, no matter who you are.

You, me, even the top athletes in the world don’t stay motivated.

If you’re struggling to get started, or struggling to get ‘back on it’ due to a lack of motivation then the unfortunate truth is you’re looking at it the wrong way.

Waiting to be motivated to start training is like waiting for the ‘perfect’ weather to go outside. Sure, it may come now and again and when it does, it’s great! But the good weather doesn’t last forever.

Instead, you need to create a lifestyle wherein no matter what, you do a few key tasks that you know will propel you forward.

Whether ‘the weather is perfect’ or not, you still do the things that you know you need to do in order to progress.

This is how you succeed over a long period of time.

You stick to your training plan,
You eat with certain (fairly broad) guidelines,
You drink a lot of water,
You avoid being too stationery every day,
You make progress.

If you want me to lay out those key habits for you for free, then comment or DM me the word HABITS and I will give you some free tips🔥

I’ve finally got myself to a point where I can say I’ve put on some decent size and strength over the years. I’m not the biggest or strongest guy in any gym that I go to, but I certainly don’t feel insecure or out of place in any weights area these days.

I first stepped in the gym about 6 years ago with no idea what to do. The far left picture was roughly what I looked like - skinny fat.

That’s when I first learned about bulking and decided that’s what I needed to do. About a year and 4500 cals a day later, I looked like the the next picture along - too fat and unhealthy and not even that much stronger than I am on the left.

It then took me years of trail and error, working in a gym and learning from other people and plenty of mistakes to learn the information and the habits I needed to get myself as lean as you can see in the next picture and then finally how I look today in the far right picture - which you can categorise however you like😂

The point to my rambling is I wasted a lot of time in the beginning. I didn’t understand the habits I needed, I didn’t follow a training plan properly, I ate too much or too little, I would train too long and not hard enough because I didn’t understand how to properly overload and loads more. I also didn’t have enough money for a coach.

It’s for these reasons that I put together the Beginners Bible. A short, cost effective course to help young people in the same position that I was in get a leg up on their training and nutrition and lay the foundation for amazing results - without forking out £100s each month.

Today is the official launch date and we already have some positive feedback which I can’t wait to share🙏

If you’d like to learn more about it then give me a DM🔥

I’ve spent the last few weeks working on my new product: The Beginners Bible.

But it occurred to me that there may be a lot of new followers who don’t know what it is that I do normally.

I’m an online coach dedicated to helping beginners learn the basics of training and nutrition so that they understand how to lose fat, make gains, set goals and adjust their process of achieving them. All without losing themselves and becoming a slave to the process.

I do this through my online personal training package where I work closely with individuals one to one, learning about their specific struggles to help them overcome them and achieve great results.

Now, with the new Beginners Bible, I have the chance to help a lot more people do the same.

The Beginners Bible gives you all the information and resources you would ever need in your first year of training to achieve brilliant results while also providing you with a group platform to ask questions, share wins and get more information from me and the team.

The course costs three £75 payments, taken on a recurring date each month making it affordable even to students and those who are uncertain about making a big upfront financial investment.

The best part is, after those 3 months, you’ll have continued access to the group message boards, course videos and of course your training and nutrition plans!

The Beginners Bible goes live this month so if you’re interested but would like more info, just DM me ‘BB’ and I’ll fill you in🔥
