You don’t need to train more… Do you want to get stronger without spending hours in the gym? You don’t need to train more, you just need to train better. One of the biggest mistakes I see is people constantly changing their programmes, adding more exercises and spending longer in the gym, without actually getting […]
Cancer Research Pull Up Challenge 550 Pull-Ups Completed. I’ve now completed the Cancer Research UK Pull-Up Challenge… The challenge was simple, but certainly not easy: I had to complete 310 pull-ups throughout August. I’m really pleased to say that I managed a total of 550 pull-ups. Even better, I set myself a fundraising target of £500, and […]
What is progress? Progress isn’t always just simply adding weight to the bar. Progress also can be: Walking upstairs without your knees killing you! Getting off the floor with ease (without sound effects). Carrying the shopping in one trip. Keeping up with your kids or grandkids. Simply feeling more confident in your own body. Too […]
This August, every pull-up has a purpose. I’m taking on the Cancer Research Pull-Up Challenge. The goal is to perform at least 310 pull-ups over the month. I say ‘at least’ because I’m planing on seeing how many I can truly do over the month. Who knows where it will end?! Im not doing this […]
The best things in life can’t always be rushed… I’m absolutely not a gardener (at all ), but thing one I do know is that my small attempt at a veg patch of carrots, beetroot & potato didn’t grow overnight. It’s taken time, care, & consistency, and it will continue to do so until it’s […]
The fitness industry can be a VERY noisy place. Every week there’s a new trend. A new ‘hack’. A new ‘expert’. ANOTHER new thing you’re apparently supposed to be doing. The reality is that most people don’t need more information, they need less confusion. You don’t have to fast. You don’t have to do HYROX. […]
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, […]
Most people think: “If I’m sore, it must be working.” But this is not necessarily true. The strongest clients and the client how make the most long term clients progress aren’t the most exhausted ones. They’re the most consistent. Recovery isn’t weakness. It’s strategy. Train to improve. Not just to feel tired & beat up. […]
When did you decide you were “too old”? Who told you strength has an age limit? Every year you don’t lift, you lose muscle, you lose bone density and you lose resilience. Every year you don’t lift, you lose muscle & you lose movement. With age most people, move less, train less & expect less. […]
This isn’t about me. This is about you. Are you someone who wants to feel strong again? Do you want to feel confident again? Do you want to feel capable again? This is exactly how my client James is now feeling. He’s been training consistently with me for the last 7 weeks, and has made […]
