The 2020 Review - now we’re firmly within 2021 and Bojo has hit us with the third lockdown, I thought it was about time I share a little bit of a reflection and transformation... cause you know why not.
- This is a 6 months transformation from a few weeks into lockdown until 23rd of December. Lockdown has caused no end of problems and sadly suffering for lots of people, but at the same time gave people time and space to reflect and realign there trajectory.
- For me, this made me realise I wasn’t and hadn’t been playing rugby for almost 2 years and maybe eating 4000 calories a day still wasn’t a good idea. - Dropped the calories back, played with my carbohydrate intake with a bit of carb cycling and massively altered my programming and switch to the Rescue Ready high frequency training four days a week and starting running on my days off.
- The end, result was I dropped 11kg over 6 months, increased work capacity and my strength by a significant amount. My squat by 15kg (150kg 3x8 to 165kg 3x8) , my bench by 10kg (110kg to 120kg 3x8) and my deadlift by 25kg (180kg 3x5 to 205kg 3x5).
- And incredibly, starting running 10milers every week, even running a half marathon.
- What does this mean too you? Well if I can do; You can do it too. Losing weight and getting stronger isn’t rocket science... I mean it is science but the point is, it doesn’t have to be made complicated, it can be made simple. I always tell clients and people who I work with, just try to be 1% better every day or every session. It’s not all about massive changes, it’s about lots of small changes constantly!

Massive improvement from my client Jacob. After just 8 weeks of following the Rescue Ready strength program, we have developed from back squatting 170kg to a box. Now achieving full reps at 180kg.
And going from 127kg bench press to 140kg.
Some awesome results.

In the next coming weeks we will look at switching from General Preparedness Periodisation to more Sport and Athletic specific periodisation so we can push him even more to reach those goals.

Now we’re well into lockdown and the hype train of home workouts and buying your sliming pills off the Internet has quietened down, I thought I’d throw my name into the hat. Training can be done however and whenever you choose. There is no ‘secret exercise’ there is no ‘magic fat burning food’ and the sooner you realise that the faster you can focus on what matters. The one thing CrossFit does really well, it’s take a bunch of exercises and throws them together to create basic workouts. EMOMs are the love child of circuit training and HITT training and is a very simple way to easily create and structure a workout. All you do is select how many exercises you want to do, the more the better and then how many reps you’d like to achieve. Now for a rule of thumb for EMOMs, 12 reps is typically the ideal number for ensuring that you remain within that minute, however as always the number of reps can be adjusted to YOUR level. Take a look at a simple workout that I complete regularly at home.

Exercise selection and variation is something that for a long time I neglected and took for granted. For years, my staple gym diet consisted of smashing back shakes and worrying about the holy trinity; Squat, bench & deadlift. Nothing else matter, because within the rugby environment I played within people only asked how much you can squat, not how much you can leg press. This is not to say I didn’t perform other exercises, but I focused heavily on three main lifts which made me stronger, but I often wonder if I had added a lot variation and rotation of different exercises like I do now earlier within my lifting career how much stronger or explosive I could be after all variety is the spice of life 🤔 🌶

Little food for thought, when performing any exercise ask yourself why? Why this movement? What’s it benefiting? What movement pattern is it developing or promoting? If you can’t answer why, it’s probably a good idea to select another exercise.
-
And that goes for training methods, whether upper body lower body splits, bro splits or high frequency be honest and ask yourself why? What’s the benefit? Are you progressing? If you aren’t it might be time to come back to the drawing board and reassess you’re ‘why’. #999

The physical demands required to operate safely within dynamic and high temperature atmospheres should not be underestimated. We know that the up regulation of our cardiovascular systems occurs when we exercise and move, however, that up regulation is significantly increased when wearing bunker gear and SCBA. Couple this with potentially high heat, high stress environments, we have the perfect combination for cardiovascular stress and potentially cardio induced cardiac arrest. The importance of maintaining our cardiovascular fitness is just as important as making sure we use the correct PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) when responding to incidents. Don’t allow you’re lack of cardiovascular training be the death of you. Get moving and keep moving.

If you think I look bad you should see the other guy..

Last year I gave a go, completing it in 3:11 seconds.
I’m officially signed up to give it a second go this July. I will be aiming to knock off some time, without requiring a lung transplant at the end!
