I am a motivated and accomplished trainer and nutritionist with extensive experience in sports and fitness. I am the owner of a successful personal training business which specialises in health and fitness for anyone looking for a challenge. My goal as a trainer is to provide the very best service, using proven training techniques, highly detailed nutritional planning and intelligent recovery methods to guarantee results. My passion for fitness started with a childhood full of sports. I had my first experience of serious training when I took up Martial Arts. I then took up weight training and Tai Chi to further my knowledge and physical ability. I competed for Great Britain students in karate, it was during this time that I discovered the benefits of strength and conditioning for sport and body composition.

🌟 Why Is There So Much Misinformation in Fitness & Nutrition? 🏋️‍♀️🥗

The fitness and nutrition industry is full of advice, but unfortunately, not all of it is accurate or helpful. Here’s why bad information spreads so easily:

1️⃣ Trendy Fads Over Facts
Quick fixes and “miracle” diets often overshadow science-based practices. These trends spread rapidly but lack long-term effectiveness. 📉

2️⃣ Influencer Overload
Many influencers share tips without proper qualifications. Just because someone has abs and followers doesn’t mean they’re experts. 🎓

3️⃣ Aggressive Marketing
Companies push products with exaggerated claims, prioritizing profit over people. It’s hard to separate genuine advice from clever advertising. 💰

4️⃣ Information Overload
With so much content online, it’s tough to filter out the good from the bad. 🌐

5️⃣ Personal Biases
People often share advice based on their own experiences, which doesn’t always translate to universal truth. 🧠

6️⃣ Black-and-White Thinking
The idea that there’s only *one right way* to eat or train ignores individual needs and promotes confusion. 🙅‍♂️🙅‍♀️

🔍 How to Navigate the Noise:
- Follow certified professionals and science-based content.
- Question trends and verify claims before trying them.
- Focus on what works for YOU—health is not one-size-fits-all.

✨ Your Takeaway: Misinformation is everywhere, but with the right mindset and credible sources, you can navigate through the noise and focus on what truly matters—your unique health journey.

🌗 Why Black-and-White Thinking Hurts Your Fitness & Nutrition Goals
In the fitness and nutrition world, it’s easy to fall into "all-or-nothing" thinking:
❌ Carbs are bad.
❌ If you’re not training 6 days a week, you’re not serious.
❌ You have to be perfect to see results.
But the truth? Life is lived in the gray areas. 🌈
Here’s why black-and-white thinking sets you back:
⚡ Unrealistic Expectations: Perfection isn’t sustainable. Flexibility is key to long-term success.
⚡ Overwhelm: When every misstep feels like failure, it’s harder to stay consistent.
⚡ Misinformation: Simplistic thinking leads to extreme diets and training methods that don’t work for most people.
💡 What to Do Instead:
✅ Focus on progress, not perfection.
✅ Adapt to your unique needs and lifestyle.
✅ Remember: One “bad” meal or missed workout doesn’t erase all your progress.
Fitness and nutrition are journeys, not destinations. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ Let’s embrace balance, not extremes.

So I'm at the end of my dieting phase. I started at 94.8kg, dropped to a minimum of 72kg, very depleted. Now after a weeks refeed sitting at 78.3kg.
I used an aggressive dieting protocol and calculated my deficit based on the maximum rate at which energy can be liberated from fat stores.
Zero loss of strength through the entire process and I'm really happy with the results
