Coach Connor Gibson

Easy life = less capacity to handle life’s challenges.

Hard life = greater capacity to handle life’s challenges.

Life happens in seasons.

Social media is distorted and makes people think it is always up..

But the rain is inevitable. And what matters is how we prepare for these times..

Because if we act like tough times won’t happen, we’re going to be in for a rude awakening.

But if you build capacity by regularly challenging yourself to prove you’re capable of handling a little discomfort, those tough times will be a lot easier.

I’m grateful to my past self for taking on challenges and building capacity because if I didn’t, who knows where I would be today.

To future me – I will continue challenging myself and seeing what I’m made of so we can handle the darker days and stay grounded and strong for those that need us.

If life has been too easy lately, or you’re lacking drive, set yourself a challenge, do something that seems hard and just out of reach of your capabilities and watch how you grow and become a stronger version of yourself.

And if you’re going through the ringer right now, hang in there. It won’t be for nothing. You’re stronger than you imagine ✊

Life isn’t fair.

There is no guarantee of ‘winning’ even if you are the hardest worker in the room.

Often we have this expectation of outcomes which are out of our control.

You may do everything right. Everything they told you to do. And it still doesn’t work..

What you do next is what separates the best from the rest.

Do you complain that you aren’t getting the results you want and end up quitting? And start comparing yourself to others?

Or do you carry on because you are focused on the journey rather than the outcomes?

There is an easy shift for this.

Be. Do. Have.

The having will always feel out of reach if you aren’t focused on the ‘being.’

The having will not be sustainable if you are clinging on to it and not embodying the person who can hold it.

When we focus on the being, and embodying the version of ourselves that takes action on the things we know are necessary to achieve the having, we can’t lose.

This is why many give up on their dreams and think what if?

And why some will carry on doing the work regardless of outcomes..

Because the real winning is the embodiment of being the person you were born to be. Your true self.

To me that is the greatest achievement of all.

Do it for you.

Be kind to yourself, and to others.

Go after your dreams.

And as always, Stay True To You ❤️

14 years.

At the start, my goals seemed out of reach.

‘You’ll never be big’

‘You’ll never lift that heavy’

‘You don’t have the right genetics’

🤨🧐🧐🧐🤨

I always told myself, if others can do it, why can’t I?

One of my good friends helped me start my journey and I shared the early days training with a few close friends. As time went by I wanted to learn and test myself more. I wanted to see what was possible.

I started working with coaches, all who are world class and amazing at what they do.

With their help I achieved things way beyond what I ever thought possible.

210kg Squat
135kg Bench Press
265kg Deadlift
10 body weight muscle ups
I started learning handstands
I started learning Muay Thai
Ran 10km in 40.32mins and 5km in 18mins

But it’s not that simple. Right?

‘Realistic’ is one of my least favourite words. And people throw it around way too often.

Realistic is where your dreams go to die.

There are times to be realistic and there are times you need to be delusional.

Delusion is believing in something that is beyond what you think your capabilities are but you strive for it anyway.

‘Reach for the stars and you’ll land amongst the clouds’ as they say.

When it comes to your health and fitness goals - have a bit of delusion. Delusion gets the ball rolling, because if you are still spinning your wheels and making no progress or always starting and stopping, you’re probably trying to be too ‘realistic.’

The longer you leave it, the harder it gets. When it comes to your health, there is no better time to prioritise it than now – it has positive effects on so many areas of your life. Don’t wait for a crisis to make a change.

Start small. 14 years in the game for me. But it doesn’t have to take you that long.

If you haven’t worked with a coach before and are finally ready to lock in, I’d love to work with you.

DM or book a free 30min call via the link in my bio so we can chat about where you’re at, what your goals are, what you have tried before, and why you want to start now - from there the sky is the limit and I’ll be with you every step of the way.

Let’s make 2026 the year it all changes 💪🚀

People before profit.

More money into the business owners pocket could be good, if they want to use it to create more impact.

But if it’s just to buy fancier things and live a flashier lifestyle - it is greed.

The real ones are going to be the ones that remember we are human.

They will remember we all are doing our best to provide, to have purpose, to have meaning.

If jobs keep getting taken, is it really serving us?

What is the real cost here?

True embodied, grounded leaders, who are operating from alignment and truth aren’t going to be dropping full teams so they can make more money.

And anyone who wants to sell a solution to a company to slide in, take a piece of the pie and make a whole lot of people lose their jobs – is not someone I want to be around. If they can sleep at night after putting a bunch of people into a panic, then they are what is wrong with this world.

Be the change you want to see.

Integrity and abundance is all about living in a way where you believe you can achieve your dreams without the expense of others.

If you have to step on others to get ahead or throw people under the bus, then you do you but what goes around comes around.

Give first. Give without expectation. Serve. Share your light.

The world needs true leaders now more than ever.

Coaching doesn’t have to cost thousands. Yea we could charge an arm and a leg so you feel like you put something on the line but my goal isn’t to put you into pain to drive you…

And there are also no contracts. I say ‘16 week minimum’ but do I hold people to this? No. People may say, ‘Connor this isn’t good business’ but then why is my retention rate so high? Most of my clients who stay past their first month stay for a year or more.

I’m not going to force you to do something or stay doing something you don’t actually want to do.

Which is why we get clear in what you actually want at the beginning. And if I think I can help, I will. And if not, I’ll let you know.

I am selective with who I work with, just as you should be too.

If you are a kind, genuine human, who wants to create impact, or deepen your connections in your relationships, or earn more money so you can do more for those you love, or if you want to change the world like me, I want to work with you.

If you just want a 6 pack so you can get your dream girl or grow an ass so you can land a sugar daddy, I’m not for you, but there are others who can help 👊

Let’s get it. The sun is shining. It’s time to make hay. 👨‍🌾
