A few things you may not know about me:

In school, I didn’t wear my glasses until I was in sixth form because I was worried what people would say/think

I lived in Spain for a year during uni

The Twilight films are my guilty pleasure

I’m left handed

Football Manager is my favourite ever game, I don’t play it anymore because I know it would take over my life

The political divisiveness we’ve seen over the last 10 years worries me

I am very introverted. Put me in a group of people and I’ll be the quietest one

Crisps are my favourite food

Despite loving music I’ve never been to a gig

I’ve got a 100% record in eating challenges

I’m a Liverpool fan. I got sent to my room at half time during the 2005 champions league final because I was throwing a tantrum

Dieting is not the same for everyone

A 6ft labourer could easily eat in a couple of bars of chocolate and a bag of crisps whilst being in a deficit and eating enough protein/fibre

A 5’3 office worker who doesn’t train and watches TV all evening? Yeah good luck

Might sound unfair but that’s just the way it is

Ultimately it comes down to this - what’s more important?

Being able to eat chocolate every day or hitting your desired rate of fat loss?

Because there’s a good chance that both aren’t achievable simultaneously

A selection of meals & snacks from the week

Some are more nutritious than others

Some are more calorie dense than others

There’s absolutely zero reason why both can’t be incorporated

If you take your training seriously then you should be logging your sessions

Because the chances are your memory will be a bit like Prince Andrew’s when it comes to remembering the minute details of the previous week

It really doesn’t take long and it makes such a big difference

Because when you do start logging you know exactly what weight to put on the bar/machine and the number of reps you should be aiming for

There’s a 95% chance you’re mucking about on your phone in your rest period anyway so you may as well put 10 seconds of that to good use

Learning how to juggle - part 1

Before you even consider taking supplements or trying to hit each head of the tricep during your push session

You actually have to have the basics under control first

You wouldn’t put racing stripes on a car with no tyres or engine would you?

It’s dumb

The perfect training split (there isn’t one by the way) will not be more beneficial than training consistently

Protein timing is useless if you’re not eating enough in the first place

There’s no point in taking a supplement if you don’t train with enough intensity in the first place

Get the basics sorted before you even think about fine tuning things

What life is like if you’re scared of bread

In all seriousness though can someone please tell me why we still have people (not including coeliacs) who are petrified of eating bread?

“If you count calories then you’ll become obsessive”

That’s like saying “if you drive on the motorway you’ll crash your car”

Does it happen to some people? Yeah unfortunately

But that doesn’t automatically mean it’ll happen to you too

I can completely understand the aversion to tracking

It’s an absolute ballache at times

But it’s black and white - there’s absolutely zero room for ambiguity

You know exactly how much you’re consuming each day as the numbers are right there in front of you

(Unless you just happen to forget to log those two glasses of w**e and dessert)

Should you track forever? Well that’s up to you

If that’s what works best then go for it

But if you’ve downloaded MFP and logged one breakfast before giving up, you’re frustrated with your progress and it’s still sat on your phone

I’d recommend giving it another go

Even if it’s for a few weeks or a month

I can guarantee you’d be surprised at the calorie content of some of your meals

I thought we were past the demonisation of carbs 🫠

If your pancreas works correctly then you shouldn’t be worried about your blood sugar levels as it’ll take care of that for you

Judging a food solely based on it’s GI is so narrow minded

High GI foods are ridiculously useful before and during exercise as a quick boost of energy

And please, if you see someone talk about inflammation then just take whatever they’re saying with a pinch of salt
