I am a big beleiver that although people think they need a Personal Trainer – they actually need something else.

If you are paying for a Personal Trainer then regardless of how much that costs or what his skill set is then it is that.

It is what it says on the tin.

It is just a Personal Trainer unless you’ve AGREED otherwise.

Now a Personal Trainer is responsible for exercise and possibly some basic healthy eating habits. It can end there and nothing else is expected – unless you’ve made an agreement otherwise.

Now it is ONLY my opinion that most people, although they think a Personal Trainer is what they need, they actually probably need something or someone else.

Something or someone that is going to not just help them change and hope it sticks but to TRULY transform.

And when I say TRANSFORM I don’t mean six-pack abs and all that, it can be that but I mean a transformation that occurs in the MIND.

I mean change is good but it’s often tempory and unless it sticks then you will possibly end up back at square one.

Back to that life that led you to think you needed a CHANGE.

So let’s give you a better overview of this from 50,000 feet up in the sky.

Let’s choose a stressed out overweight guy for example – he chooses a PT because he believes he needs more exercise and some nutrition help.

I mean it’s hammered into us by the media that we need to move more and eat less, right?

Now as much as this can be the case, unfortunately it often isn’t and this is why people yo-yo with their weight, suffer through the process and struggle with their results.

I mean if exercise was the answer then you’d expect gyms to be full of fit and healthy people, right?

Now as much as that might seem harsh, it’s how it is I’m afraid.

Let’s say ‘overweight guy’ goes to the gym and has the best session ever, he even has a pretty awesome post workout meal being in ‘the zone’ still.

Motivation levels are sky high right now for ‘overweight guy’ and he feels everything is achievable.

All good, right?

Then life throws a curve ball and reality kicks in!!

He gets a dodgy phone call, he has an argument with his wife or he starts stressing out about the day at work tomorrow.

His stress levels go up and he then cracks open the bottle of red wine as this is his ‘go-to’ when life gets tough.

After that he is full of guilt and does not know why he did it, he’s already ruined the day in his head so he might as well face plant the crisps and biscuits.

Don’t worry though, he’ll just go back to the gym and un-do all of his work tomorrow which will probably push him closer to being ‘over-trained’ and now has even higher STRESS levels.

It’s a FOREVER going merry-go-round!!

Life surely must be more FUN to live, right?

So what I truly believe now is that people need something else…

Something that can move them away from CONTROL and closer to FREEDOM.

A HAPPIER life.

I’m a huge believer that people’s MINDSETS are so far off the grid that it’s affecting their EXERCISE and NUTRITION and in return their RESULTS.

And when we say results, we mean how you are feeling, how people accept you, what clothes you are being able to fit into.

You know all that stuff that makes us feeling real happy deep inside.

Remember – it’s an INSIDE JOB!!

This is why I don’t really call myself a Personal Trainer now, I like to see myself more of a Life Coach who masquerades around as a Personal Trainer giving people what they WANT but also what they NEED.

And ULTIMATELY what they DESIRE!!

Short-term change might look good in the magazines but do we ever see the AFTER-AFTER pictures?

No!!

What I do is help people ENJOY what they do and make their results STICK!!

I give them the tools to truly transform in life through MIND, BODY and SPIRIT to give them the skills to make them INSPIRATIONAL within and give them back the POWER to help defend the big bad world.

My PURPOSE is to help people get what they deserve when they put the EFFORT in with their EXERCISE and NUTRITION.
