Burn Baby Burn

Want to know the most inefficient way of making your body use calories? Trying to burn them through activity and running yourself into the ground.

I Quit Drinking Coffee And Life Is So Much Better

I love coffee. Black coffee for what it’s worth. Espresso. Double. None of that flavoured milk shit.

Pay Attention to Your Food

What else are gums used for other than thickening foods? Laxatives. They are used as laxatives. Ever wondered why so many different processed foods give you gas, bloating and the shits?

I Just Want To Look Good

I want more muscle. Less fat. More tone. Bigger chest. Bigger arms. Rounder shoulders. Tighter butt. Better legs.

Don't Listen To Bodybuilders?

Kind of like if you wanted to be rich and had access to a billionaire but didn’t want their advice because they were too rich.

Could You Make It Easier Please?

I could soften it up. I could make it as vague as possible. But I’d prefer to do my job correctly and provide the client everything they need.

Don't Forget To Warm Up

It is about preparing your body and mind for what you are about to do. It’s about getting the movement right. It’s about getting the feeling of weight through your body.

You Wont Find The Answer In A Needle

Don't give me any BS you're too small to lift those kinds of weights. Im not genetically gifted. I’m just stubborn as fuck.

Outside Influences Affecting Your Diet

How could you possibly consider going against the grain and actually stick to a diet? God forbid you might actually get results and then where would you be? Looking good? Have less fat? Fitting clothes? Not hating yourself every time you look in the mirror? Pft! But would you really be happy?

It's All About Balance

Do You Need A Personal Trainer?

Anyone can go to a gym to lift weights, run on a treadmill or participate in group classes. Why on earth would you part with hard earned money to some inexperienced, out of shape trainer who will probably spend most of the session checking Facebook or perving on all the lycra clad ass wondering around the gym?

Wheres Your Head At?

There is a man standing next to you. Dressed in black. The man is holding a shotgun to your head. His instructions are simple: get the reps or he pulls the trigger.

F Your Feelings. It Doesn't Matter.

A wonderful squat technique with an empty bar means absolutely nothing if the moment you put weight on it everything falls apart.

It's All Too Hard

Firstly, very very few of us ever will get the body we want. I’ve said for a long time this is the dumbest sport in the world. You never really get better at it. It never gets easier.

I Hate This Industry

After sitting quietly for a while and letting my temperature drop back to normal, I came to the conclusion: as much as I love training, I hate this industry.

What are you doing?

Before you start on your meaningless, empty, cliched justification of why you think walking up stairs means so much to you and is your gauge of physical prowess, let me butt in and say “bullshit!”

You're fat. Why Are You A Personal Trainer?

Trainers can’t be too good and strict I suppose. How is the average person supposed to deal with that? The strict living trainer just doesn’t understand the pressures of not eating bad food.

You're Probably The Problem. I was.

“Why can’t I lose weight? Why can’t I change my body?”

Why? Because you eat like shit and train even worse. That’s why.
