29th Birthday, Physique Update and some Philosophy 👇🏼 (swipe to the end to see me as a annoying little brat 👹)
‌
The past year has probably been the hardest in a long time for my psyche.
‌
Getting personal here but:
‌
🔹 We had a necessary but big move out of the childhood home, a lot of ups and downs
‌
🔹 We had a passing in the close family which crippled everyone and the aftermaths with everything are still on going
‌
🔹 I love being a Personal Trainer but hate being a Fitness Coach, and juggling these 2 physically and financially is becoming a mess
‌
🔹 Getting busier with my business which is amazing but the messy inconsistency of the hours takes on toll on the spirit - only people in the industry seem to truly understand this
‌
🔹 Having my fitness goals and literally dedicating each block of the day in
needing to fit in calories, workouts, getting in good sleep etc, day after day IS HARD. To the point that at this stage, you say no to a lot of things and people that don’t align with this.
‌
🔹 I’ve lost the deep fire and passion for making music and making time has simply not been a priority anymore. This was always my first passion since I can remember.
‌
🔹 Juggling being a personal trainer, fitness coach, online coach, content creator, natty bodybuilder, partner, son, man, friend and helping occasionally with caring in the family all whilst still having guilt free personal time is extremely difficult.
‌
Why have I written this?
‌
Content init.
‌
But also, that this will never be easy and the time will literally never be right.
‌
I’m not even saying my situation is ‘bad’ I’m just sharing my reality.
‌
I may complain on the surface about some of the above things because it’s a topic that makes a convo start, a bit of banter here and there.
‌
But deep down I can’t complain. There are always people in worse situations.
‌
But also it’s not a game of who has it worse. Everyone has their own troubles and own demons.
‌
That will never change, you just ride the waves of ups and downs.
‌
You just have to learn to become a better surfer 🏄‍♂️

Bulking and that 🤌🏼

If you don’t look in the mirror for a significant amount of time after a cheeky pump, you basically aren’t gyming correctly 🫵🏻

SKINNY DORK TO SWOLE STUD: HOW TO GUIDE👇🏼💥
‌
🟢 Eat More. Then Eat Again.
🟢 Lift Heavy Metal. Often.
🟢 Sleep Like A Baby. On Routine.
🟢 Learn From Smart People.
‌
The biggest things I have learnt on this journey is that people think they can grow quality muscle by just eating a little more protein, and forgetting about calories.
‌
To grow you have to be uncomfortable. That means eating when you’re not hungry. Force feeding if you like. Then doing that continuously over days, weeks and months.
‌
Same goes for weight training.
‌
I didn’t push myself with enough intensity early on. I left so much potential gains on the table.
‌
In fact, because of this, most of my gains came in my later years.
‌
I honed in on my programming, intensity and also my calories.
‌
I listened to smart, evidence based knowledgable people in the field, not the random gym bro who must ‘know’ what he’s doing just because he’s ‘big’.
‌
Creating a new physique isn’t easy.
‌
In theory it can be, to an extend but ex*****on is the hardest part.
‌
Embracing discomfort and learning to love the process by sprinkling smaller milestones within your bigger vision usually leads to a continual growth in the game.

SKINNY TO MUSCLE - 5 KEY THINGS 🔑
‌
👈🏼 LEFT
17/18ish - Approx. 65 - 68kg
‌
👉🏼 RIGHT
28 (few days ago) - Approx. 87kg
‌
I’ve been in the game for more than a decade 🗓️
‌
But I should be a lot BIGGER and STRONGER 👎🏼
‌
Here are 5 Things I WISH I Knew When I Started 👇🏼:
‌
✅ 1. 80/20 CALORIE SURPLUS 📈
‌
The best natural physiques in the world share 1 thing in common - they spent 80% of their time in a surplus of calories and the rest in a deficit.
‌
If you REALLY want to build quality muscle tissue, you NEED to EAT.
‌
A little tub never hurt anyone.
‌
Utilise mini cuts strategically and do MAJOR cuts only when needed - e.g. special event, holiday, photoshoot, competition, etc.
‌
✅ 2. GET STRONG EARLY 🏋🏻‍♂️
‌
Once you have the fundamental movement patterns down, aim to get super strong in the 5-30 rep ranges
‌
No wishy washy lifts. Treat every lift from a squat to a bicep curl as a science.
‌
Up the reps, the weight, the poise of movement.
‌
Something must be improved every week.
‌
✅ 3. INTENSITY IS KING 👑
‌
Push close to failure often.
‌
You provide the best stimulus for growth when at the end of the set you truly had only 1-2 reps left in the tank
‌
Smaller muscles can be taken to absolute failure a lot more often as they will recover quicker.
‌
✅ 4. CUT AGGRESSIVELY 🔪
‌
Once you have gotten rid of initial stubborn fat (if needed) and ran a solid bulking phase, cut AGGRESSIVELY.
‌
I don’t mean in a short time period.
‌
But I mean really push down the bodyfat% more than you think you need to, acting as if you’re about to go on stage.
‌
You’ll create a more solid foundational physique where you can bulk and still look leanish year round.
‌
✅ 5. ACKNOWLEDGE GENTICS 🧬
‌
Ultimately you will be at the mercy of your genetics.
‌
You are born with a certain bone structure, muscle insertions and response to resistance training.
‌
That stuff you can’t change. Someone’s starting point might be your 2 year progress.
‌
There will always be someone bigger, and more aesthetic with quarter the amount of work you will ever do.
‌
Understand that this exists, but you can’t let it get to you.
‌
Bad genetics?
‌
You damn well better not miss a day 🤨

✅ 4. ACKNOWLEDGE GENTICS 🧬

Ultimately you will be at the mercy of your genetics.

You are born with a certain bone structure, muscle insertions and response to resistance training.

That stuff you can’t change. Someone’s starting point might be your 2 year progress.

There will always be someone bigger, and more aesthetic with quarter the amount of work you will ever do.

Understand that this exists, but you can’t let it get to you.

Bad genetics?

You damn well better not miss a day 🤨
