Why Mindset matters?
Being gifted and talented will only take you so far. A champion mindset is about being prepared, focused, disciplined and having a deep unshakeable belief in yourself. Especially on those days when you’re tired and feel like quitting.
If you don't believe in yourself, why should anyone else?

Are you consistent or inconsistently consistent?
There's a difference between wishing to achieve a goal and really being prepared to sacrifice and go to tremendous efforts to get it.
YOU have a choice in the outcome based on what you choose to be consistent with:
1️⃣Consistently sticking to a plan & hitting all your workouts or;
2️⃣Consistently missing your workouts & meals
Either option will compound into a result. What result are you seeking?
Taking action now is going to save you a world of pain in the future…If you're keen on making a change for summer, drop me a 'DM' and let’s discuss how I can help.

If you want to achieve a lifelong goal, whether it be prepping for a show or just simply getting into the best shape of your life, it certainly won’t just happen by luck.
We need grit, sacrifice, and determination to achieve our goals, and we need to show up even on the days when you want to give up. More importantly, not quitting when you fail or letting negative past experiences halt progress.
The only thing you should be worried about is what's ahead! And only you can write your chapter. It's never easy, but nothing worth it ever is. You are always worth it.
If you’re ready to commit to a plan that’ll help you get rid of the excuses, drop me a message with the word “TRAIN” and I’ll get you more details.
Strong in body, strong in mind! Get it!

Regardless of which program, template, set or rep scheme you’re following, the most important thing, is that you believe in what you’re doing.
Even the average training plan will become great, if you give it your all with both your approach and execution.
After all, a vast majority of plans have the same basic components. The difference between those who get great results and those who don’t is typically your ability to go all in!!

Check out the progress has made in the few months we have been working together online. Andrew really wanted to pack on some mass and was struggling to see progress both inside and outside of the gym. We started at 83KG and now sit at 90KG 👏🏼
Not only that, Andrew’s strength has gone through the roof, resulting in PB’s across a multitude of lifts.
❌ From having no structured training, routine, not enjoying his nutrition & lacking motivation.
✅ Now he’s loving training, enjoying nutrition more than ever & not only looking better but feeling and performing to the best of his ability each day!
Scroll across to see what Andrew has had to say about his experience with MJNFit Online.

Are you ready to take on 2022?
Immediate goal for 2022 for and I is submitting Kilimanjaro 🏔. Which will be one hell of a challenge.
What’s yours?
You cannot expect to do well if you have no goals laid out before you.
These goals should be on the yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly, and even daily level.
It is important to make sure your goals are time-based, that way you can track and make adjustments.
Additionally, they need to be realistic and something you’re willing to make appropriate sacrifices for.
As I always reiterate, find your WHY!
Once this is established, the steps to achieve your goal can be determined.

Pre-workout typically refers to the consumption of nutrients within a 3-hour radius of your scheduled training time. This feeding time is to help provide the body with the fuel needed for training. ⛽️
People often assume that the best fuel for exercise, especially strength training, is protein. While protein plays a significant role in muscle building and repair, carbohydrates are what keep your body energised during exercise. Ideally, a pre-exercise meal should consist of primarily complex carbohydrates, moderate amounts of protein, and very little fat. The energy produced from the consumption of carbohydrates can be readily available at a faster rate for the body to use than proteins or fats. Consuming meals high in fat before a competition or workout may cause stomach bloating, gas, and indigestion.
Whenever you start paying close attention to your pre-workout meal habits, you could see a vast improvement in your output and performance.
Typically I always stick to the same meals because I know they work for me. You can experiment with what works best for you, but here is a few examples of what I would tend to eat before a workout. Usually 1.3 - 2hr before a session:
1.) Egg Whites and Whole Grain Bread: Egg whites are quick-digesting, and whole-grain bread is a quick and convenient medium-digesting carb.
2.) Porridge & Whey: Oatmeal is a decent pre-workout meal, especially when you add protein and the slow-digesting oats keep you feeling full and focused during your session.

“As to methods, there may be a million and then some, but principles are few. The man who grasps principles can successfully select his own methods. The man who tries methods by ignoring principles is sure to have trouble.”
Knowing a method might make you think that 8-12 reps per set is the best rep range to build muscle.
But understanding a principle empowers you to know that muscle can be grown with any rep range, providing enough tension is applied to the fibres by getting close enough to failure and performing an appropriate amount of hard working sets spread across the week.
Just like knowing that a ‘low carb’ diet typically leads to many people losing weight.
But understanding how calories in v calories out is ultimately what’s been affected by reducing carbohydrate intake within your diet…
...and that this energy imbalance is what is actually leading to weight loss versus anything inherently fattening about carbs.
What if we as an industry stop boxing ourselves into our methods, start focusing on principles. Your way is A way, not THE way.
Remember,
If you understand Principles,
Then you can pick whichever Method adheres to these and suits your likes and preferences. 🤝

As a coach its important that I deliver the best possible service to my clients.
What might you expect from MJNFit Online? Results, here’s a few reasons why 👇
☑️ Tailored training programmes that work around clients, not the other way around…
☑️ A nutritional protocol that meets my clients where they’re at, instead of trying to fit square pegs into round holes…
☑️ The highest level of accountability. A clients success is also mine, so I won’t let them fail…
☑️ Resources. If my clients need it, I deliver it. Whether it’s tasty recipe ideas that make them look forward to their meals, or training and education on sleep, every client is set up for success.
❌ Over restrictive diets that leave them feeling starving and underwhelmed with food…
❌ Excessive training programmes that take hours to finish
❌ Dictatorship. My clients and I work as a team on the decisions we make. Autonomy is so key for a successful diet.
❌ Leaving them to it. I speak to my clients as little or as much as they need me to. I’m on hand to help wherever I can.
Wanna join us? 🤝
I’m looking for new clients who want to finally achieve the physique of their dreams in the next 90 days or less without any of those point above 👆
Just DM me the word COACHING and I’ll send you all the details.

I always bang on about the importance of accountability. No matter what goal you have in mind, without something or someone holding you accountable it becomes easy to let excuses creep in and ultimately let yourself off the hook.
Limiting beliefs & a lack of structure could be why you haven’t achieved your fitness goals and keep pushing them back. Or maybe you’re just waiting for the “right time”.
A recent study on accountability was done by the Association for Talent Development. The researchers found that individuals have the following probabilities of completing a goal by taking these actions:
▪️Having an idea or goal: 10% likely to complete the goal
▪️Consciously deciding that you will do it: 25%
▪️Deciding when you will do it: 40%
▪️Planning how to do it: 50%
▪️Committing to someone that you will do it: 65%
▪️Having a specific accountability appointment with someone you’ve committed to: 95%
The rate of success just by having a coach for example is crazy, granted you’re willing to put in the required effort.
This actionable step could be exactly what will save you time and wasted effort. In my programme for example, it’s what gets people more results in 90days than they’ve gotten in the years past.
Who’s holding you accountable to a higher standard?

You’d be surprised how much progress you can make in 90days. 🚀
What will the next few months look like for you? Much of the same, or are you ready to learn and make some serious changes?
I’m looking for 5 men who are willing to put in the necessary work over the next 90 days + to break old habits and routines that quite frankly aren’t working. 😤
If you’re serious about making a significant change DM me now to secure a spot. 🤝

Absolutely loved the process of preparing for a show and all the challenges that come along with it.
It takes an unparalleled level of dedication, sacrifice and willpower all for a few minutes on stage.
Would I ever compete again? Maybe 🤷🏻♂️
The standard of Natural Bodybuilding is only getting better and better.
