Health is true wealth and comes with a generational impact.

I'm not a dad, but I care deeply about kids and understand that many of the physical and mental health challenges we face as adults often have roots in childhood—challenges that could be prevented.

Children build their blueprint for life and form their mental models of how the world works largely through their parents.

If we want to provide them with a healthy blueprint for life, therefore, we first need to work on our own.

If you want them to put their phones down, put yours down first.

If you’d like to see them more physically active, show them through your own actions.

If you want them to eat better, start by eating better yourself.

By becoming the embodiment of the adult you'd like them to model, you greatly increase the chances that they will follow suit.

Something to think about...

How clients lose 3.5 lbs week 1 ⬇️

On average, most of my clients who have at least 2 stone to lose, drop 3.5 lbs in their first week by following this a really simple 👇

The plan only requires them to focus on their breakfast, which includes a certain type of food that accelerates fat loss.

💪 Exercise wise, they are encouraged to do 3x strenght training sessions with me, and to hit a reasonable step target.

When I run through the week one plan with them, many of them ask:

"Is that all I have to do nutrition wise? What about lunch and dinner? Should I not also cut out the chocolate, wine and takeaways?'

My response is always the same:

"Eat whatever you want for lunch and dinner. And rather than focusing on what you think you shouldn't be doing, focus on what you need to do (follow everything that is in your weekly plans for the first month)."

By doing so, over time 'the wrong' things begin to sort themselves out ✅

For example, by gradually increasing their protein and water intake, it helps manage their cravings and keeps them fuller for longer, which automatically decreases their consumption of the food they consider 'junk'.

I'd encourage you to take the same approach. It's simple, enjoyable and sustainable.
