Are you an ambitious man trying to become the best version of you? Maybe you've been in the gym a couple of years chasing the dream of having ripped abs, round shoulders and an all-round powerful looking physique with the strength to match. But you find yourself caught in a cycle of trying to get bigger and putting on too much fat in the process, or trying to get ripped and drop the belly without

also saying goodbye to your hard earned muscle and strength. And honestly, I don't blame you. Because it's straight up impossible to build a rock-solid physique without the right structure, training, support and accountability in place. Here you are doing 80% of the work by showing up to the gym consistently and making an effort to eat right, yet you still don't have a body you can be 100% proud and confident in when you take off your shirt. Trust me, I've been there. I've went for months at a time not making any progress. Even going backwards at times. Dieting too hard losing muscle and getting weak or bulking up too much and being uncomfortable in body and mind. And now I take great pride and satisfaction in continuing to help 100's of men end their confusions around training & food forever, build a rock hard body and discover new levels of confidence in the process. I have combined my real world experience of being a national bodybuilding and powerlifting champion with my education background of holding an honors degree in strength & conditioning to create my Kaizen Elite Physique Program. This program specializes in taking guys who are feeling confused about how to train and eat right, often doubtful if its even possible for them to achieve abs, and ultimately not happy with their body. To having a rock-solid physique, unstoppable confidence and a body that reflects the strong, confident man they aspire to be. How would it work for you?
1. Firstly we set up a consultation call where together we get crystal clear on your goals, and gain a full understanding of what you've been struggling with to date and exactly what we want to achieve together in the future.

2. If we both feel you are a good fit for my program, we begin setting new habits around training, nutrition, mindset and recovery from day 1. You will also become a member of my Kaizen Tribe online community where you will find a wealth of training information and a community of men dedicated to bringing the Kaizen philosophy of continuous improvement to their bodies and lives. This allows you to start seeing results straight away while you wait for your custom designed Kaizen Elite Physique program.

3. You will receive your high intensity training program, and custom nutrition & supplement plan. All laid out in in a simple to follow format with full explanations, video demonstrations where needed and complete clarity on every aspect of what you need to do to achieve your goals.

4. We keep in regular contact through my weekly communication and accountability systems where I closely monitor every aspect of your progress.

5. I adjust your plan and program as often as needed to see continued progress. You never feel alone, confused or doubtful of your progress again. You achieve world class results and you question why you didn't make this investment into your body and mind sooner.

The Giants throwing stone.What a battle.

It’s rare I get in my head but I genuinely borderline believed I couldn’t do it.

It took me so long to figure out just one very specific way I could wrap my arms fully around this stone and get any strength into it.

I flipped it every possible way and had absolutely nothing.

My T-rex arms, blocky torso and short legs made this one extremely challenging for me.

Eventually, with the help of my wonderful wife getting stuck in and wrapping your arms around too we figured out the exact narrowest points on the stone and I was able to clasp my hands.

As you can tell by my reaction, I was thrilled to get Gaoithe Faoi - wind under this 188kg / 415lbs giant stone, pun intended.

Like everything in life, the more you work for it the more it means to you.

This one meant a lot.

A great feeling to join the lineage of strong Irish men who’ve lifted the Giants stone.

A challenging stone in a stunning setting steeped in history, beauty and mythology.

From the local folklore:

ā€œThere was once a giant in Aughagower who used to throw the stone over his shoulder and would throw it as far as another man would send a pebble. The stone is there yet and the trace of his fingers in it. A great many strongmen spend their leisure time trying to lift the stone.ā€

That wraps up my stone lifting for this tour of Ireland šŸ™‚šŸ™šŸ»

Tuam Corner Stone, a total last-minute side quest.

Pulled over for a cup of tea on the long journey from Waterford to Mayo, realised I was 15 minutes from the Tuam corner stone. Had to go.

Within minutes of arriving, three separate locals approached me.

One woman shared stories of the stone and what it means to the local people.

Another pulled up and told me to be careful with it and respect it - I said ā€œyou’re talking to the right personā€ and off she went.

An older man pulled up just to egg me on, then drove away again.

It was very clear this stone was of great importance.

Then a local stone lifter, Eoghan got out of his car. Told me the way most lads lift it, had small blocks of wood to help with the set up, and talked me through it. I got it to the chest and was happy with that.

He said ā€œI’ve got some training stones up at my house if you want to follow me up.ā€

So we did. A 200lb, a 300lb, and a warm-up stone. I wasn’t going to war with them - happy to get gaoithe faoi and enjoy the moment.

The audience was a field of bulls and Peggy the dog, who was convinced my chalk bag was full of treats.

Eoghan is a blacksmith. Before we left he handed me a fire poker as a gift.

Completely unplanned. Absolutely brilliant. These stones always end uo being an adventure - you never know what’s waiting when you set out for them.

Great little adventure going in search of Paddy Langans Cloch Nirt (Irish stone of strength) in Clonfad to go lift it

Always so exciting to lay eyes and hands on a historic lifting stone

This one was 187.5kg / 412lbs and has a legendary story attached to it:

"Paddy Langan of Bloomfield was the strongest man in this district. He took a stone from Ester Finlay’s house Clonfad, and carried it out andbrought it to Clonfad Churchyard. He said, ā€œMen will count themselves good men if they carry that stone.ā€ It is there still and there is no one now able to stir it.

Imagine - back in the 1700s this beast of a man carried this stone here

Absolutely humbling

I was very happy to get a very good Gaoithe Faoi, or wind under it, the traditional irish style of lift

I promised myself this stone tour that after I got a good lift I wouldn’t keep trying the same stone but that went out the window - I probably hit it 6 more times trying to get into my lap and stand higher with it - each attempt worse than the last haha

Ah well, no regrets really, I was buzzed up

My only regret is not exploring more of the graveyard - there was only minutes of daylight left being almost 9pm and we were nearly 3 hours from home

Great stone, awesome to touch and lift the same stone, hope Paddy was proud

Thanks to my wonderful wife as always for being down for the adventures and the support

Joe is 41. Father, husband, golfer, hockey player. Had a home gym, a barbell, and the discipline to use it regularly. Didn’t eat badly. Stayed active.

Still had the soft physique. The dad bod that wouldn’t shift. No real muscle to show for the years of effort.

That’s the bit most men don’t talk about. Doing the right things and still not seeing it in the mirror.

Now Joe has built a seriously impressive set of shoulders and arms and a solid chest while dropping over 30lbs of fat

Solid, strong, and actually looks like a man who trains.

His words:

ā€œEnergy levels have been at levels from my 20s. Weight is down to what it was in my early 30s. All the motivation I need.ā€

That’s what precision behind the effort does.

Well done Joe šŸ†

The strongest men I coached weren’t the most gifted. They were the most consistent and stable in the right ways.

If that’s the standard you want to hold yourself to , we would work well together šŸ¤šŸ“ˆšŸ’ŖšŸ»

Most men carrying a belly after years of training don’t have a willpower problem.

They have a precision problem.

Jamie had both the effort and the discipline.

What he didn’t have was a plan built specifically around how his body actually works at 47.

After working with me his kids are watching a different man.

If you’ve been putting the work in and your body still doesn’t show it, DM me CONFIDENT and I’ll tell you straight what’s holding it back.

Nice lil PR of 420lbs to round of my stone training for this year. Hit some historic stones in Ireland over coming week and then back to strong man and get into worlds strongest firefighter prep when I get back

I’ve trained in some of the best gyms in the world. Been around this game for over two decades.

Lifting this natural stone is still one of the highlights of all of it.

Liam O’Flaherty wrote about this very stone in 1937:

ā€œIt was a great day in each young man’s life when he raised the stone from the ground and gave it wind. And if he raised it to his knees, he was a champion. And if he raised it to his chest, he was a hero.ā€

171kg/375lbs of granite on a remote island off the west coast of Ireland. I tore my adductor going for it. Strained my wrist. Back was on fire. Fought it to my knees, found a new grip, refused to put it down. Got it to my waist.

Came away a champion by his measure!! I’ll take it!

The barbell is a tool. The stone is a test. Get outside and go find one.

I’m heading back to Ireland in the coming weeks. More historic stones to lift. Watch this space.
