Improve your physique and happiness
I’ve been reflecting recently on my past seven years in the fitness game, and I have loved it, don’t get me wrong. I’ve spoken before about the many benefits of fitness success that carry over into the rest of your life. However, I couldn’t help but notice that I have made a lot of mistakes. […]
I’ve been speaking to guys recently who have lost motivation with their work projects, goals and have lost their hunger for life in general. “Why do I not want to go to the gym anymore?” “Why do I struggle to get out of bed every morning?” Of course, I don’t always have the answers, and […]

A lot of people really struggle when trying to get started on their fitness journey. As the fitness journey is a long one, requiring consistent hard work over the long-haul, certain behaviours need to become second nature – habits. Having the correct habits ensures consistent success. It also makes the process easier. How do we […]
The online fitness community never ceases to amuse me. As the promises of rapid progress and instant results continue, the seas of frustrated, unsuccessful dieters continue to grow. Everyone seems to jump onto the bandwagon without really stopping to analyse the effectiveness of these ideas in the real world. Before I begin, I encourage you […]
SO many guys fail to do this, and end up ballooning after their cutting period, where they were extremely deprived, and couldn’t wait to get bulking again. It’s arguably one of the most crucial periods, the “Transition Period” as I like to call it, for those who care about staying lean year-round. This is the […]
As you are probably aware (otherwise you wouldn’t be reading this), success with fitness is really, really important. Success in your fitness life promotes a huge self-confidence boost, and carries over into all other areas of life, as I describe in my book.
