Physiques by Fraz Services

We offer a wide range of services that can be tailored to your individual goals. We also provide home visits for clients.

We can help you lose weight, gain muscle & feel more confident through our specialist expertise in training, fitness & nutrition that will guarantee you life changing results. We have our own personal gym, and are 'remote' operating out of various gyms and studios throughout Derby. We also provide online coaching services, which can be accessed from any location. For more information on our servic

es, please see below:

1 to 1 Personal Training

1 to 1 Personal Training involves a bespoke individual coaching delivered by myself. These sessions will be suited to your individual goals providing you with the opportunity to progress in any area of fitness. We are firm believers that training with weights is one of the most effective forms of exercise, therefore a large composition of the personal training sessions involve 'perfecting' your technique on various exercises. You can access 1 to 1 personal training at a frequency that is suitable to yourself. However, for optimal results, we recommend training at least 3 days per week (emphasising the importance of training in your own time, alongside any 1 to 1 personal training sessions with myself). We deliver personal training sessions at our own facility, and also operate remotely delivering sessions at different gyms and studios in Derby. Group Training

Similar to 1 to 1 personal training, we can deliver small group sessions if you prefer training with others. Group sessions, although less bespoke, can provide some extra motivation if you enjoy training with other people. We cater for groups of up to 4 people at our own facility, but can deliver sessions to larger groups in different outdoor locations throughout Derby. Online Training

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, online training has become an alternative option for clients. We are able to deliver 1 to 1 and group personal training sessions via Zoom, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger utilising video call software. Although a little less popular, this option is great for individuals who are less confident and comfortable with face to face personal training sessions. This option also means that clients are able to access sessions from their own home and in any location. Online Coaching - Training and Nutrition

Online coaching is a service that offers weekly check-ins for individuals who need accountability and guidance for progressing towards their individual goals. As part of this service, you will be provided with the following support:

Training programmes - designed and tailored to your individual goals and updated regularly to enable continued progress and to facilitate recovery. Nutritional support - providing you with guidance on how to track, monitor and be accountable for your food intake. We recommend food intake tracking for clients, as we advocate flexibility, however we can also provide meal plans if required. Check-ins - weekly video check-ins to assess progress, provide psychological support and to adjust your training and nutrition based on verbal and written feedback. Live monitoring - Utilising Google Drive, you are able to update your progress in real-time, which assists with accountability and data tracking.

two years of weight training, and some solid progress to show!

Training frequency has been at just 2 x per week for the past year, which really shows that a good physique can still be achieved even with time constraints!

Bravo Maria - very proud of you ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ˜€ ๐ŸŽ‰

Week 21 - Gaining phase

The size now is really beginning to show!

Progress on the main lifts is still occurring and food is still high at 3,500 calories per day.

Bench press is at 100kg for reps, alongside 192.5kg deadlifts, 135kg squats and pull ups with 26.25kg hanging around my waist.

Weighing in at 12 stone first thing in the morning - the aim is to add approximately 1 stone to my frame over the next 12 months.

Still training at home and will be the foreseeable!

Probably the biggest and best that my legs have looked - and for the past 21 weeks I havenโ€™t changed a thing in terms of my leg training...

1) Back Squat 4 x 4-6 / 2โ€™
2) SSB Wider Stance Squat 3 x 8-12 / 2โ€™
3) DB Walking Lunges 3 x 10-15 / 1.5โ€™
4) Leg Extensions 3 x 10-15 / 1.5โ€™
5) SLDLs 3 x 8-12 / 1.5โ€™
6) Single Leg Curls 3 x 10-15 / 1.5โ€™
7) DB Standing Single Leg Calf Raises 4 x 10-12 / 1โ€™

Additional work later in the week:
1) Box Squats 3 x 10-12 / 1.5โ€™
2) Bulgarian Split Squats 3 x 10-15 / 1.5โ€™
3) SSB Calf Raises 4 x 10-12 / 1.5โ€™

The goal is to either add weight within the target rep ranges or add reps - basically...to progress whilst keeping all variables the same. None of this โ€œchange your workout every session to shock your musclesโ€.

Iโ€™m now at a point where these leg sessions are what I dread each week because of how difficult it is getting to make progress, but thatโ€™s what I love about training!

12 month progress - Lockdown 1 (April 2020) vs Lockdown 3 (April 2021) ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

I think during the past year Iโ€™ve probably added about 14lbs of mostly lean muscle, which I am very happy with considering Iโ€™m natural.

Iโ€™ll be continuing to post bi-weekly offseason updates for accountability purposes, but it is so rewarding to look back and visually see the change over the past year despite all of the challenges.

Do not be afraid to EAT and lift heavy weights - it works ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Swipe left โฌ…๏ธ to see this 8 month transformation ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

The home gym is now complete, with the floor levelled on Friday and rubber flooring installed today (thanks to ).

I wonโ€™t be returning to a โ€˜gymโ€™ at least for the foreseeable future, as for me personally, time efficiency is the deciding factor. I feel bodybuilding is (at times) all-consuming, so anything I can do to lessen the burden for my loved ones is a win-win!

However, I would like to wish my friends and clients all the best the grand reopening of gyms tomorrow ๐ŸŽ‰

Week 19 - Gaining Phase

Almost 5 months in, and Iโ€™m extremely happy with progress. We are 10lbs up and nearly touching 170lbs.

Strength is still continuing to increase on my โ€˜focusโ€™ exercises, which signifies that weโ€™re moving in the right direction. Programme hasnโ€™t and will not change for the duration of this gaining phase.

Nutrition is on point. Eating on average 3,400 calories per day, with a focus on regular protein feedings.

Thanks to for giving me access to the Spider Gym ๐Ÿ•ท for the weekend!

Barbell Row - quite possibly the most butchered exercise in the history of physique enhancement endeavours...so here are some of my top tips for maintaining near perfect form:

1. Train topless - because, why not?
2. Wear extra short shorts - to make your legs look twice the size they actually are ๐Ÿ˜‰
3. Wear no shoes - is that not the โ€˜trendโ€™ these days?!
4. Listen to some 90s emo ๐Ÿ–ค music - yes, that is Funeral for a Friend ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Hope that helps! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜‰

Week 17 - Gaining Phase

Still very happy with how everything is going during this bulk at the moment. Food is high, training is tough, and physically I feel that I am at my all-time best - not bad for a 31 year-old eh?! ๐Ÿ˜…

Bodyweight is continuing to increase (7lbs up in 17 weeks), which is translating to strength increases week on week in the gym.

Weโ€™re going to try and ride this wave for as long as we can ๐ŸŒŠ ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป

Week 15 - Gaining phase

So, weโ€™ve arrived at almost the 4 month mark of this gaining phase, and progress is really starting to show!

Some key points to consider:
- Calories have been increased gradually. We started at 3,000 per day and are now approaching 3,500.
- Protein intake has gone up from 210g per day to 280g, which I feel has made a huge difference to recovery.
- Bodyweight has increased from 160lbs to 165lbs. As a natural, conservative gains in bodyweight are always best IMO.
- My training routine has remained exactly the same minus a few minor exercise substitutions when I have stalled. I have managed to add 12.5kg to my bench press, 25kg to my squat and 30kg to my deadlift since week 1 of the programme.

I do have a coach, who would prefer to remain nameless, but he has helped massively by providing some insightful constructive criticism along the way!

Onto the next 15 weeks! ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿป

Off-season Update...

We are 4lbs up in approximately 8 weeks, which I feel is about right to minimise fat gain and maximise muscle gain as a โ€˜nattyโ€™.

Calories are up to 3,275 per day with protein sitting pretty high at 250g per day.

Training is fairly complicated to explain but it is basically an Upper/Lower routine with a focus on weaker body parts training 4 x per week.

Feeling absolutely fantastic at the moment, but looking older by the day. Did someone say that Iโ€™m 31 in March?

Luke (Journey To My First Mens Physique Competion)- what an inspiration! ๐Ÿ”ฅ

๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿป 20.8lbs drop in bodyweight in approximately 14 weeks
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿป Strength improvements across the board
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿป Results were achieved during the COVID-19 pandemic
๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿป Consistency and hard work prevails

During this dieting phase, Luke has really switched things up a gear and I couldnโ€™t be more proud of him.

This is the end point of a solid 14 week diet. We will now be transitioning into a maintenance (and then bulking phase), as Luke aims to compete in the next October/November.
