Why you aren't very strong

My exact meal plan and How I prepare Food...

Let's not mess about, meal prep is simple....when you get it right.

Step 1) get a calorie target and macro split for your goal (go online, ask your coach, work it out yourself)

Step 2) put your calories/macros into myfitnesspal (go to goals > calories & macro goals and customise it)

Step 3) put in foods you LIKE, that you could eat every day for a year (within reason) and do not worry about amounts, just make 4-6 little meal EXAMPLES

Dieting but GAINED weight? Here's what to do…

Dieting but GAINED weight? Here's what to do…

First of all, relax, it's quite normal for this to happen in a number of situations.

And remember that gaining weight and gaining fat are two very different things. Mi

I feel this is a really important thing to discuss because you may be on track for great results, you may be training and dieting spot on…. then you gain weight and give up!

So let's look at a few scenarios.

Not seeing fitness results?

Think about this....

....everything you are experiencing right now IS a result.

Not happy with your belly?

that's a result

Unhappy with your strength?

that's a result.

SOMETHING has caused these things to happen.

a silly story about getting in shape...

every year I CONVINCE myself that I'm 'not in too bad of a shape'

I'm confident about my body and always have been

But as those calendar days get crossed off...

....as my holiday gets closer and closer....

I start to doubt myself.

I look in the mirror and start pinching and grabbing my belly fat and love handles

I take 'before' pictures and set out a ridiculously low calorie diet for myself

I promise myself that 'just 4 weeks' of no cheat meals is doable

I commit to training 5 days a week for 4 weeks

and at the end of 4 weeks, you know what happens?

Fancy dining logic bro....

I love eating out, one of the best meals I've ever had was in Hawksmoor, Manchester.

Oak panels, secret passages, old-world feel, old fashioned whiskeys, steak, wine...... you gotta try it.

Anyway....

Fancy dining is great, but I don't depend entirely on restaurant meals for my nutrition.

That'd be stupid, right?

I thought it was forever....

Years ago I worked in a bank.

It gave me some regular cashola to help run the gym in the early days.

But damn, I HATED working there.

I hated getting up every monday and NOT working on my passion.

How to Build More Muscle and Strength

Most people struggle with building muscle more than any other goal

You may think fat loss is hard to achieve?

Maybe you can’t improve on your pull-up strength?

Is your nutrition and meal prep overwhelming you and not getting done at the moment?

Well…

ALL of those areas pale in comparison to building muscle.

WHEN Should I See Progress?

I get this a lot, clients and friends who are on a new exercise regime approach me with a worried grin and say the exact same phrase, one filled with doubt and laced with the anxious tone of one who has lost their direction...
