Letâs talk about SELF TALK
Trainers & coaches arenât therapists, but we do know a thing or two about how your self talk and attitude in the gym affects your training
Itâs not rocket science to be able to see how the way you talk to yourself & how you feel can impact your ability to lift heavy weight and recomposition your body
You can literally trick your body into doing something once you convince your mind you can do itđ§
Pro athletes are aware of this. Thatâs why they will isolate themselves, meditate, say positive affirmations, and visualize success before a big sporting event
You donât have to be an elite level athlete to reps the benefits of thinking & speaking positive things
Not only will this have positive impacts towards your health & fitness goals. It will also improve the overall quality of your everyday life
If youâre having a hard time switching to this sort of mindset, try incorporating the help of a trainer or coach
They can identify when you are talking down to yourself and help you change your language to instead uplift yourself đŞđ˝đĽ

Get to know and understand your approach before stepping into the gym đ§
Thereâs nothing wrong with working out, especially if youâre new to the gym or if you just want to take a break from structure and mix it up a bit
But for those of you who want bigger thighs, glutes, or a flatter belly, then Iâd say 90% of the time you need a training program
Training programs are superior for results for a reason
Theyâre balanced. Involve progressive overload, and they incorporate repetition. The key to transforming your body is doing the same things over and over again.
Training programs also involve some sort of nutritional guidance as well. Look to follow a training program for 4 - 12 weeks
You deserve the body & confidence you want so why not train smart to get theređŞđ˝

There are winners & their are losers in life. The faster you accept this the higher the likely hood of you ending up on the winning side
Life itself is competitive by nature.
Thereâs that quote that says âIâm not in competition with anyone but myselfâ
Thatâs a good outlook to have because itâs keep you focused on your tasks and eliminates comparison
However, life is still very much a competition against forces that want to deter you from being great
And yourself. Most of the time, you are you greatest enemy
In order to master yourself,
get in the best shape of your life
and become the version of you that you dream about
You have to adopt the right mindset

Throwback to May 6th âśď¸ yesterday progress since then
Steadily climbing back to where I was before Ramadan
Since then Iâve been focusing more on training like an âeveryday athleteâ rather than an elite athlete, because Iâm not an elite athleteâŚ
Iâm not competing in way shape or form so why put my body & mind through hell
Achy joints. Injuries. Irritability. Extremely strict eating etc to obtain a certain level of fitness that I donât even want to sustain long term
Iâm not even counting calories right now. 7 years of doing this Iâm at a point where I donât need to do that everyday
This DOESNâT mean Iâm not pushing myself or working to make progress. Iâm just training smart and being sensible as well
Iâve also been working on my spiritual & financial wellness as well. Aspects of life that to me are just as important as the physical body
So with all this being said, take a honest look at how youâre training in the gym and eating
If you arenât an elite athlete getting paid,
itâs ok to take a step back and reassess your training approach for longevity & enjoyment
You arenât âsoftâ or lazy for not wanting to go so hard that you need to pop a Advil every morning because you are in so much pain
Thatâs toxic gym culture and a lot of people injure themselves or take drugs just to fit in
Nah donât do that because those same people that you feel that pressure from to do that stuff arenât going to cover your hospital bill or even be beside you if you hurt yourself
Train smart guys. This actually makes you hard and once again, smartđ§

This world that we live in has been built on fear & not loving yourself
They donât want you to love yourself
They want you to have low confidence & self esteem
They donât want you to dream big and talk big goals
They donât want you to start a business or talk about investing
They donât want you to form a relationship with God
They donât work smart. They want you to work hard til you stress yourself out
They donât want you to walk around with your head held high
They donât want you to care about your health
They donât want you to be yourself
They donât want you to be positive
They donât want you to heal
They donât want you to be fearless
Well do it anyway.
When you love yourself you become HIGHLY attractive.
Yeah in the sense of how the opposite s*x views you. Thats not that big of deal though
When you love yourself you also become highly attractive to your goals, and the right people who are meant to compliment your life
Things just tend to gravitate towards you because youâre set apart and loving yourself
Now is the time to shift to this mindset. Donât you want to level up?

A common roadblock thatâs probably stopping you from starting and staying consistent
âShould I just make everything myself or should I have someone do it for me?â
From the outside looking in, meal prepping yourself can seem like a hassle
For some and it can be depending on your lifestyle. But it does give you the skill to cook & you have more control over what goes in your food
It may be better for some to enlist the help of a meal prep service or eat out which can save you time
Downside is that you have a bit less control of how your food is prepped
Listen, donât over complicate it because that can stop you from starting period
Instead experiment with both and see whatâs work best for you and what gets you results that can stick

Since when did taking care of your health & body become taboo?
Some people look at it as boring. It can be boring sometimes.
Most things worth while in life take time and are boring at times. But itâs worth the wait and the effort.
In a world of instant gratification and dopamine addiction, start choosing the âboringâ slow and steady route.
In a few years time, youâll be glad you did.
Who else agree?

Lack of sleep and how it impacts your fat loss goals
Swipe left, Save & Share with a friend who needs this reminder
We get so caught up in the daily tasks of life that we forget how important quality sleep is
I get that we all have to take care of business. Letâs start treating quality sleep like itâs just as important as any other task you have during the day
Why? Because your quality of life depends on it
Any of my clients past or present who are doing what they need to be doing for nutrition and training, yet they still arenât seeing results
end up having a sleeping problem. Meaning they donât get enough of it
Sleep Tips:
ă˝ď¸ Start with getting better sleep before nutrition or intense workouts
ă˝ď¸ Set a bedtime hour and stick to it. If your schedule changes then plan ahead
ă˝ď¸ Stop scrolling your phone while laying in bed. Donât use at least 1 hour leading up to bedtime
ă˝ď¸ Burn incense or oils to calm your nervous system while getting ready to sleep
ă˝ď¸ Close your blinds to make the room dark or use a eye mask
ă˝ď¸ Make the room somewhat chilly

You are the CEO of your life
And like all CEO of successful brands, having a team of people surrounding you to help you improve & manage your position is a crucial piece of your success
That team of people can be looked at as the different categories of your overall wellness
Each category plays an important role and relies on all the other categories for sustainability and balance
Swipe left to take a look at all the categories
Are you balanced in all of them? Or do you need help finding your balance?
From personal experience and through my clients, Iâve discovered that if many of these categories are not established or balance
Then the Physical Wellness category will suffer. So itâs definitely important to maintain a balance
Having a coach or someone you admire to help you can put you in a position for a better quality of life
