“HE HELPED ME LOSE 16KG WITHOUT GIVING UP BEER…”
“HE HELPED ME LOSE 16KG WITHOUT GIVING UP BEER…”

Changing your body is hard, right? When you feel like you’re at the bottom of Mount Everest looking up, listening to guys like me preach on social media about health and transformation can almost turn you off.

And that’s why I wanted to come down off my high horse and share with you my personal story.

My story of being a failure; My story of feeling like crap and wanting to quit…

And what I did to change it all, forever…

It’s a story about how I am no different to you and despite what you see, how I face the same mental battles.

This is the true origin of my program and why I feel it’s my mission in life to coach what I have learned.

Living With Depression: A Candid Interview
Living With Depression: A Candid Interview

A few week's ago I had the pleasure of interviewing a really tough bloke. A bloke that I have known for 20 years but not spoken to in a while. It's funny hey, you're so busy dealing with your own shit that you just don't even comprehend how tough some other people have it and what battles they're facing. 

Cliffy, my mate, is the perfect example of the private battles people face when on the surface, everything seems A-OK. According to statistics from Beyond Blue:

  • 45% of people will experience a mental health condition in their lifetime; 
  • In any one year, around 1 million Australian adults have depression, and over 2 million have anxiety. 

  • Suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians aged between 15 and 44, with around 2,500 people dying by suicide every year. That's 8 people EVERY day! 

Depression, anxiety and suicide is non-discriminatory and affects people from different of age, gender, sexual preference, race and wealth groups. Perhaps this is the reasons why tacking the issue is such a massive challenge and one which clearly has a LONG way to go.

The Training Paradox
The Training Paradox

You know the feeling. It's Sunday night and you've had a fairly big weekend. The last thing you want to do on a Monday morning is set your alarm for 5:30am so you can get up and hit the gym. It's winter - cold, dark and.... cold! You just want to stay in bed. It's pouring rain outside and just getting to class has you soaked….

Boosting Testosterone (without needles)
Boosting Testosterone (without needles)

If you asked the average fella what testosterone does, he'd probably reply with a smile and a comment along the lines of... "ahhh... it's the reason I'm always horny!" 

And yes, fundamentally he would be right. Yet old mate testosterone may object to being pigeon-holed as a one-trick pony. In fact, his role in promoting good health is paramount and there are a number of things one can do to ensure adequate testosterone levels without injecting steroids.

The Secret To Feeling Incredible...
The Secret To Feeling Incredible...

I'm often asked where I get the energy to wake at 5am every day. I'm told to 'spend more time relaxing' and less time in the gym. Yet on five days a week, I put myself through the pain of a workout for I know the returns.

It's hard for a non-lifter to understand the lessons learned in a gym. Yet if I could promise you one sure fire way to change your existence, it would be to expose yourself to these lessons. You learn a lot about your character when you are laying under 100kg of weight that resists your attempts to push it away.

The Motivation to Change - Part 1
The Motivation to Change - Part 1

April 2014… couch, crisps, and Facebook whilst awaiting the ding of the oven timer for another deliciously orange-coloured meal of chips, southern-fried chicken and baked beans. A meal surely covering all bases on the carbs, protein, and veg front? I’m casually scrolling through the many insane pictures and musings that Facebook regurgitates when my eyes lock onto a photo of me looking like what can only be described as a fat, retired WWF wrestler. No offence meant to wrestlers out there.
