This is Alastair, We have trained together for a very long time. Alastair had returned to his regular training sessions 9 weeks ago following open heart surgery. Here’s a quick breakdown of how we have structured things so far: The main purpose of weeks 1 & 2 was to simply assess what lower body weight […]
You don’t always need ‘motivation’ & you definitely don’t need to chase perfection. What you do need, above all else is to find true consistency. This means not just showing up when you feel like it, but also at times when you don’t feel like it. Real results are never but in one ‘good’ week, […]
Training should be taken seriously… …but that doesn’t mean you need to take yourself seriously. It also doesn’t mean that your training can’t be enjoyable. Because if you don’t enjoy it, you won’t stick to it. If you don’t stick to it, nothing else really matters because consistency always wins. This is one of the […]

Quick question… When was the last time your training actually made your life easier? Not just sweatier. Not just exhausting. But genuinely stronger? Are you moving better than you were 5 years ago? Or just pushing through more aches? Do you finish sessions feeling capable… or just relieved it’s over? If you’re over 35, this […]
Most people over 35 don’t need to do ‘more’. They simply need better structure. The body changes. Recovery changes. Stress levels change. Life changes!
