Akkas Miah - Core Fitness Personal Training

I've been a personal trainer for 10 years now and have a BSc Hons Human Nutrition 

I spent 5 years working for the NHS National Diabetes Prevention programme , helping hundreds of patients reduce their Type 2 diabetes risk through educating and coaching

I previously competed in Natural Bodybuilding, where I challenged myself to lose 6 stone in 6 months and stepped on the Bodybuilding stage

I now compete in Powerlifting 

Unlike many fitness professionals, I've been in your shoes

Like you, I've also been overweight, depressed, tired, and angry at the world

Like you, I have the unforgiving pressures of money, work, kids,

Like you, I've also done the fad diets and spent my hard earned money signing up to programmes and supplements that promise the world, but fail to deliver

I've lost my way, lost my fitness, and built myself back up numerous times, 

My experiences taught me more about fitness, health, and empathy for others, more than my degree or PT qualification ever did,

I know hard it can be, I've been there,

That's why I train people like me,

The working parent, the carer, the provider - fitting in training, whilst dealing with life, and looking after our loved ones

Shifts? Long hours? Reviews, meetings, and reports? 

Yep, that's me too

Im all about making lasting, long-term changes in habit, behaviour, and lifestyle

Im all about helping people feel relief using exercise, not as a way to pressure yourself into perfection

Im all about losing weight slowly, sustainably, so we can look and feel comfortable with ourselves and fully enjoy other parts of our lives, always!

The focus is for YOU to get strong, really strong, for everyday life....so that physically you're always ahead

If you're ready to get fit, get strong, and start prioritising yourself once and for all, drop me a line already

Enough said i reckon 👍

Do you have any questions for me?

Something youre not sure about?

Training, nutrition, health related?

Drop me a line 🤜🤛

We love Sunday group coaching sessions!

, Uncle Dean and Sheina 🤜🤛

Still missing .suleman and Mr Shady!

Group coachings awesome, you work hard, you have a laugh, and you become part of a great community 😀

I love training these guys, its always a pleasure when theyre in

Losing weight, getting stronger, together, focussing on changing habits over the long term,

Most importantly, we do this by placing realistic expectations on our health goals, and we consider real life obstacles and hinderances

I dont believe in 12 week bootcamps and transformations

Im all about getting the gym to become a part of your life, and to improve your life

If your interested in joining my group coaching sessions,

Drop us a DM 💪

Speak soon

We take our health and ability to move around for granted

Because its the natural, default status

Most of us are born healthy,

Most of us grow up pain free and feeling strong

So we take it for granted

Cos we never really worked for it

Ask a person whos in pain, what they want the most

Ask a person who is unable to move, what they want the most

They wont reply with money, fancy car, big house or a promotion at work

Theyll say:

I dont want to be in pain anymore

I just want to be able to move around again

We already have our health, our strength

We just have to uphold it, look after it, maintain it

Dont throw it away,

Dont waste it,

Stay strong

To add

Think about how your body will react if you gave it nutritious food

Gave it much needed movement and exercise?

It would HAVE to react positively, because THAT'S the message you are sending your body

That's the stimulus your body needs

EVERYDAY

That's the key, frequent, daily, healthy messages for your body to react positively to,

Adopt DAILY healthy behaviours

Get 10000 steps in a day
Lift weights
Sleep on time
Eat nutritious and delicious food
Drink plenty of fluid
Enjoy time with loved ones
Take time off work regularly

To be truly healthy, both inside and out, we need to adopt some, if not all the behaviours above

Can you think of more healthier behaviours?

Can you try implementing more of them behaviours in your daily life?

Can you drop me a like and a follow? 😁😉

Stay strong peeps!

And if you stop showering after 12 weeks then youre a scruff plain and simple 😂

My point is exercise, fitness, active lifestyle, you gotta embed it into your life, or be prepared to

If not, youre gonna have a tough time getting into shape, and staying in shape

Exercise isnt something you need motivation to do

Exercise isnt something you do when you feel like it

You do it because you HAVE to, for the sake of your health

Just like showering for the sake of your hygiene,

Exercising is a privilege, a luxury,

Obesity, is a 1st world problem, a disease of abundance

If i put you in a rural village in Bangladesh...you'd be trim in no time 😉

My first powerlifting competition after a 6 year break - i thought i was done with powerlifting

Life had done a number on me, and i genuinely lost confidence in myself

But i found a love for it again, the support from my wife and her sisters and was unbelievable and heartwarming

Not to mention the bloody atmosphere was electric! everything was ran smoothly, from the music to the commentating - incredible

Lifting with colleague and friend was soooo cool - she freakin killed it an all! and hope we inspired you to compete one day too 🙏

I hope we can open the doors to everyone in our communities to get involved some form of sports....ideally strength sports 🤣

Strengthening your body and testing it is the one of the easiest ways to empower yourself - youre really missing out!

Anyhoo...

Bodyweight - 85.1kg
Squat - 170kg
Bench - 120kg
Deadlift - 205kg

Totalling 495kg - was aiming for 500kg but got duped 🤣🤣

Literally such a good buzz, onto the next comp!

Video up soon 🤜🤛

Thanks to all my clients for their support and encouragement leading up to this - you guys rock 🤘

Interested in Coaching?

Get in touch!

Even if you somehow managed to change the pH levels of your stomach or blood etc

You'd find yourself in a hospital bed

Stop thinking alkali is good and acid is bad - and please stop wasting money on "green" supplements and "green" smoothies in a bid to alkalise yourself and lose weight

You know deep down its all bo****ks

Instead, spend money on being truly healthy,

watch your portions, eat a balanced diet

Spend money on exercise and stay generally active,

Spend money on my personal training package 😂

Anyways...stay strong 🤜🤛
