Similar to the inside of the average Powerlifters head,
There's lot's of blank space on this graphic.

And I'm sure I could find a way to fix that if I was a better influencer,
But I'm a coach and I like to spend my time coaching,
So zoom in if you need to.

Lucy made lots of progress,
I'm confident I can help you too.

You know how to get hold of me.

155kg & 120kg for 275kg between the pins and a new 3RM for Chris.

He'll be lifting the real things in April for Parkinsons UK.

We ate the loss today.
No excuses, we just got beat by the better team.

And of course it stings... A bit like my right ankle right now,
But that’s sport, nobody likes losing.

But you won't win every time, and you’re not supposed to.

If you are winning every time and you’re not playing at the very top level,
You’re probably in the wrong league, or category.

Anyway, win or lose,
I love this team thats given me route back into competitive basketball.

Onto the next.

'One of the hardest sets of his life'.
Thats what he said to me in March after hitting 212.5kg for a new 5RM.

Fast forward 8 months and Liam barely broke a sweat with 220kg x5.

You want progress like that?
You know where I am.

The funny thing about training is that people often start chasing 'better ideas' long before they start chasing better ex*****on.

They’ll hunt for hacks, novelty, and complex systems…
But ignore the simple habits that would actually move them forward.

Progress comes from showing up regularly,
Training with clear intent,
Eating like an adult,
And sleeping like someone who cares about their results.

Not flashy methods. Not reinvention.
Just hitting high daily standards in the basics,
And maintaining them.

Very few people need the type of complexity they think they need in their training and diet.

If you’re ready to trade complexity for results and want coaching built on high standards,
Message me and I’ll build you a plan that moves you forward.

High protein options are fine, but stop swapping actual food for some Frankenstein 'high-protein hacks' that won’t hit the spot.

Because this is way too much effort for something that likely won't satisfy the craving, so you’re just wasting effort and setting yourself up to raid the cupboards later.

If you want a bagel, eat a bagel.

Pick the real thing, incorporate it into whatever your dietary allowances you have, then move on.

You’ll be happier and long term more likely stick to your plan because you won’t be choking down sad fishy imitations of what you actually want to eat.

And don't get me started on protein bars.
Just grab a chocolate bar and a protein shake then move on.

Stephen was one of the first,
And he's coming up to 3 years in the Online Strongman Team.

Before that, he would do drop ins to the Strongman Club I used to run,
So it's more like 4+.

Coaches often pride themselves on the amount of new sign ups they get,
I prefer priding myself on retention because it says more.

Sign ups are about the marketing,
The bells and whistles and claims attached to what you're selling.

Retention, thats 100% about the product.
If it's not good enough and if people aren't getting results,
They leave.

In both my one to one and my teams, my client turnover is low.
I have multiple people on 3+ years now.
Some on 5+

Considering the average retention for a decent coach is 6 to 12 months.
I'd say that speaks volumes about what I provide.

Our new training cycle just started,
And there's still time for you to hop in.

DM me for the info.

Coaches like to pick a side of the fence for social media.

The problem is that diet, nutrition and macros are usually a moving targets.

So whether you track it or not, pick whats right for you,
And then make it easy.

Don't go weighing every fu***ng chocolate every day.

Follow me for more pragmatic takes.

Adding 1 Rep to your 1RM in a training cycle is good progress,
To add 4 reps to your 1RM in a training cycle is wild!

But good and extraordinary things happen when you have your s**t in order.

An old 1RM of 65kg becoming a new 5RM.

If you want coaching,
You know how to get me.

Always thinking I'm fast, smooth and competent...
Until I watch the videos back.

At least last nights 22 slices of pizza didn't weight me down too much.

29/11/2025

84kg & a 9kg PB in the Split Jerk for Liv!

Doors are open to our Online Strongman Team ready for Monday.

DM me if you want in.
