Pillars of Life

One thing that I believe is extremely important when you want to get healthier is looking at your lifestyle.

 

Symptoms of an unhealthy lifestyle are things we all battle with: excess body fat, constant bad moods, stress, tiredness, unfit etc.

 

These are symptoms of an unhealthy lifestyle. Not something we can fix directly. 

 

Read that again - we cannot fix these things directly, without surgery and medication that is, and I’m assuming you don’t want to go down that route!

 

So let’s look at the main lifestyle factors that CAUSE these issues.

food poisoning...FML

so… last weekend I got some food poisoning

 

in fact, I actually think it wasn’t poisoning per se

 

But it was my body rejecting too much junk food over the weekend.

 

I mean, I really went to town.

 

I know this isn’t what you expect to hear from a fitness professional

 

But that’s what I did.

 

I’m not proud.

 

I want to restore my health, and your faith in me (!) so here’s what we are going to do:

 

> lay out some basic rules for eating healthily

 

> set out the PILLARS OF LIFE to live your code each and every day

 

> be more active, let your body act like a human body, rather than an insect locked in a cubicle.

This is really sad….

I’m afraid today I’m going to start off on a very serious note.

 

You would not believe the amount of emails I receive from people who are in a really bad way.

 

They don’t believe in themselves anymore.

 

They don’t have life goals.

 

Their life consists of work/sleep/work on a repetitive cycle with no end in sight - and they’ve settled for that.

 

The minimal free time they do have is jam-packed with doing things for OTHER people.

 

Taking the kids to kid stuff. Meeting up with family on the weekends.

Ignore The Pain, Achieve The Consequences

If I said, you could earn a million pounds if you picked the healthy option out of the following:

 

lettuce vs pizza

 

I hope you’d enjoy your million quid 

 

cos thats f-ing easy to see, right?

 

So if you already know what’s ‘human food’ and what isn’t

 

Then why do we ALL find it so hard to eat clean and hit the gym?

 

Well, it comes down to looking at the consequences of your actions

 

…and this is classic human nature btw…

 

We are all coded DEEEEEEP in our DNA to mainly look at short term results.

 

ever heard of first order consequences?

Coffee: The Ultimate Pre-Workout (But NOT Post Workout) Drink

There are numerous scientific studies that demonstrate that coffee is a potent ergogenic (a drug with the capability for increasing capacity for bodily or mental labour especially by eliminating fatigue symptoms.) It can increase fat burning during training, heighten an athlete’s ability to perform optimally and improve work capacity.

When you can't finish a program...

You know, I've probably started more programs than I've finished.

 

In fact, who am I kidding, I definitely have!

 

I've been lifting weights for over 17 years now

 

And every 2-3 weeks since day one I pretty much get excited about some new program, or diet, or exercise, or gimmick...

 

....and I want to jump in and try it!

 

But let it be known my followers, thy divine secret of all future gainz is....

Why fitness is confusing.

Ever had one of those lightbulb moments?

 

I have them all the time.

 

not because I'm particularly clever

 

But usually because I'm doing things so arse-backwards that when I finally see the light it's a big revelation.

 

Take lifting weights, for example.
