10KG WEIGHT LOSS 🔥

Results: (4months apart)
Body weight 80kg > 70kg
10cm off waist!! 😱😍

I’m so proud of this chicka!! Started off with zero training and tracking experience 🙅‍♀️ She was so hesitant to start and to trust me ( a stranger) with her goals since she felt like she tried everything else before. I kept repeating and reminding her
1. Trust your trainer
2. If you follow my directions, you will get where you want to be but you have to put the effort in the times you don’t see me.

She did exactly that and now she is 10kgs lighter, confidently tracking and prepping meals and deadlifting!!

Congrats on this huge achievement 👏🏼 can’t wait to keep pushing it further 🔥

Jessica 😍

This wasn’t only a physical transformation but a mental. Jess and I have been working together for the last 7 months and her growth just inspires me. Her goal was to cut body fat so she could feel her best at her wedding next year 🥹 not only did she transform her physique but she is stronger, confident in the gym alone and healthier.
She could probably out lift me now and I can’t even be mad 😂 Jess is a type of individual where you tell her to do 8reps and she will do 10 👏🏼

The last 9 weeks I put Jess through a cut where she dropped from
70.25kg - 64kg 🔥

“I don’t have time to train” really means “ITS NOT MY PRIORITY”

How long do you expect yourself to complain about the same problem for?
To stay consistent at the gym, these six to do’s are a must ✅
1. MAKE IT A PRIORITY (If you have love for yourself you will just get it done, it’s gonna benefit you in the long run)
2. Have a training program to follow. NO PLAN, NO GAIN
3. Set ACHIEVABLE GOALS
4. Identify road blocks. PLAN AHEAD
5. Accountability. PT, friend, co worker, family member.
6. HAVE FUN

The only thing you will regret is the workout you didn’t do 💯 Today is the day to create good habits 😁 not excuses ❌

Calorie deficit vs Weekends

If you are in a caloric deficit you would know that in order to achieve a weight/fat loss goal we need to maintain in a caloric deficit. But what if you have plans on the weekend to go out for some drinks & dinner with mates, now you are stressing because how are you gonna stay in a deficit whilst you are out? One answer

BANK YOUR CALORIES

Banking your calories is a useful, flexible and a reliable way for you to indulge and to not feeling guilty on your weekends out without jeopardising your progress and going over your weekly caloric deficit.

First graph - if you are in a deficit of 1700cals per day you can see your weekly total adds up to 11,900 cals over the 7 days.

Second graph: example of ‘banking your calories” - Calories are reduced by 200cals each day Monday-Friday. Which means you are “banking’ 1000cals throughout the weekday to spend over the weekend. You can used these ‘banked calories’ and enjoy the extra 1000 on 1 of the days or split it up in 2 (Saturday, Sunday) and enjoy an extra 500cals each day (as seen on the graph).

This allows you to still be within your 11,900 calorie energy deficit.

Remember, if you cut too much through the week you most likely will be hungry and won’t be able to adhere to this technique.

Leave the Foam Pads for the Hip thrusts…

Stop using the pad for squats 🛑 beginner or not it’s not gonna benefit you. If the bar feels uncomfortable you need to change your set up and bar placement.

High bar squat:
1️⃣ Get your whole body under the bar
2️⃣ You should not tippy toe to unrack the bar (that means you have set up to high)
3️⃣ Place your hands as close together as you comfortably can
4️⃣ Pull shoulders blades together
5️⃣ This creates a “shelf” your traps!
6️⃣ Bar should be sitting on top of that shelf you created (NOT YOUR NECK)
7️⃣ Push elbows back to straighten out wrists
8️⃣ Un-rack the bar by driving your hips forward

Why we do not use the pad 🙅🏻‍♀️
🛑 Encourages bad bar placement (It’s gonna sit way to high on your neck)
🛑 Creates difficulty creating and maintaining upper back tension
🛑 Changes the biomechanics of the movement

Finding the right placement and getting comfortable with the bar sitting on your upper back can take some time to get use to but it will help build up your traps and create a much safer, stronger position and is the correct way to squat 💯

Happy lifting 🔥

Spider Man dropping some facts 👇🏽

Here are a couple reasons why your glutes aren’t growing…

🕷 Always eating in a caloric deficit
- food is fuel… so eat it! And make sure you are eating enough of it. You want to be eating in a SURPLUS.
- 80% whole foods & 20% soul, because the quality of our food matters but so does living a balanced lifestyle.
- Eating enough protein is key

🕷 Not following a program
- Form > weight
- Quality > Quantity of exercises
- Consistency > Intensity
- You need structure and to be repeating the same exercises each week & progressively overloading your muscles for a long period of time

🕷 Not taking recovery seriously or getting enough sleep
- stretch your muscles after you train
- Sleep 8-9hrs at least each night
- Don’t train the same muscle groups days in a row
- Over training! X3 lower body days in a week is enough
- Drink plenty of water
