I heard something on a podcast a while back that I genuinely haven't been able to shake.

In my twenties, I worked out to look good. I wanted that beach body, the abs, the chest. I'm not very tall, so training and building my body was a way to feel taller and bigger, so to speak.

Since we've had kids, got a two-year-old and a 6 month old, my motivation for training has done a massive one-eighty.

And it stemmed from one thing I heard on a podcast that hit me like a ton of bricks.

Someone did an interview with a person convicted of some terrible crimes against children. And they asked him, “what makes you pick your targets?”

And he said, "First, I don't actually look at the kid, or the mother. I look at the father."

I remember listening to that, and it just hit me so hard.

Yes, I want to be healthy, fit, look good, all the usual stuff, longevity, etc. But actually now, really deep down, I want to be fit and strong so that I can protect my kids.

I want to be their version of Leonidas in 300. And look it. The absolute Spartan who they can look to and feel protected by for anything. That deep down animalistic protection. It's something I've never felt until I had kids. I expected it, but I didn't realise how deeply it would motivate.

And don't get me wrong, I still love building muscle. But my motivation now isn't; I'm going to try and improve my chest size or arms...

It's like, I'm going to turn my body into a strong, high-performance machine so I can protect my family. The aesthetics have become a byproduct of that focus.

I don't get to train as much now, especially with the six-month-old keeping me up. But when I do, my focus is to put in 100% effort, technique, and mental focus.

I'm pretty happy with the physique at the moment, but more importantly, very happy with how my body is performing and feeling - strong, energised, and fit.

Great workout just now, even though I was absolutely sweating in my office from this crazy UK weather. Bring back our cold and rain!

Two things changed my chest more than anything else.

It's really easy to mindlessly press up and down on a chest press, with little growth to show for it. I've been guilty of that plenty of times. But what I always try to emphasise now is two main parts.

The first is the lowering. I'm not just going down, I'm stretching. Aiming to stretch the chest deeply at the bottom until it feels like I'm almost tearing it. Pulling the shoulder blades far back and holding it there.

The reason is range of motion. I want to take the chest from its most stretched position all the way to its most contracted.

Which takes me to the second focus.

My goal isn't to push up. It's to push my arms slightly out to the sides, then back in by trying to make my elbows touch. So my arms travel in a bit of an arc rather than straight forward.

I know it sounds strange, but that intention helps isolate the chest and puts a bigger squeeze (tension) on the muscle. That's the aim, as much continuous tension through the chest as possible. It also mimics bringing your hands across your body, which is a key chest action.

I continue that elbow focus and hold it at the top for an isometric squeeze. Squeezing as hard as I can. It feels fantastic.

Those two compounds...

A massive stretch at the bottom, a focused squeeze at the top. It takes it from just a movement, with multiple muscles sharing the load, to a properly mindful exercise where both parts have real intention.

My legs are probably the worst on my body, absolute chicken legs....

But the one thing people always say is that I've got a decent chest. It's my best feature, and I believe it's because I've always been able to mind-muscle connect on those two parts really well, especially the top squeeze.

If you've been sitting on the fence wondering whether this suspension training approach actually works...

I just posted a video that might change your mind:

It's a full case study from Andy, a guy in his late 40s, desk job, family commitments, three heart medications, and 214lbs.

In this video, I’ll show you:

- The exact dietary changes we made to get the fat melting and his energy increasing.

- The at-home suspension training plan that finally built muscle.

No gym. No extreme dieting. No long cardio sessions.

There are literally hundreds of TRX core exercises, and I've tried pretty much every single one over the past ten years.

But there are two I'm really locking in and going all in to get stronger at. Plus a third I'll never stop doing, even though it's the most boring one of the lot.

The first I'm locking in on is the plank to pike press.

Firstly, because I can only do a few reps of these, and for me that's a really easy, measurable long-term goal to build up. If I can add one extra rep every week or two, I know I'm getting stronger.

Second, I see this as the ultimate suspension training exercise. If I only had five minutes a day to workout, I'd do this one. It's like a Swiss army knife for your body. You're hitting core strength, working through a complex movement pattern, and needing the upper body and shoulder strength to support you through it, while bracing your core through the whole hinge.

Mobility, isometric hold, range of motion, your body working as one strength unit.

The second exercise is these twists, for rotational core power.

They're hard. Same principle, I can only do a few reps, so there's loads of long term room to improve, both in the tempo and reps.

I normally love to isolate muscle areas, and I'm trying purposely to isolate the core here, but I'm also getting a lot of secondary muscular endurance and isometric work just holding my body in that position. Big bang for your buck.

And third, the elevated feet plank. Because it's just a powerhouse.

Once I've done the first two, this lets me deplete whatever's left in the core fibres and get them totally firing. Such a simple, basic move. It's boring, but it's underrated, and it's an absolute powerhouse.

So those are the three I'm locking in on. I'm really enjoying them, and like I said, I think the first one is the absolute ultimate.

My core's feeling strong, and we're going to keep going.

P.S. Tempo, tension, mind muscle connection, muscle centric training. All the essential suspension training skills for building muscle are in my FREE handbook, 7 Skills to Build Muscle with a Suspension Trainer. 📒 Link below.

The past couple of months my energy has been absolutely tanking. So I made a few changes.

We've got a six month old baby and a two year old toddler, so some of that comes with the territory. But this wasn't the kind of tiredness a coffee or one good night's sleep could fix. It was a deep, rooted lethargy. Like my internal engine just wasn't firing properly.

So I thought, you know what, I haven't actually analysed my food intake in years. I'm consistent with it, but I've not changed anything in a long time. Same supplements too.

So I did a deep dive on what I was eating and taking, and made four specific changes.

Within two weeks I had a pretty dramatic shift. I mean actually feeling internally energised, like my body's engine is revving up again.

Here are the four changes.

Magnesium. I was taking a complex with five types in it, but only low to moderate doses of each. So I scrapped it and went all in on magnesium glycinate and taurate at full doses, the ones I felt were best for energy and fitness.

Vitamin D. I spend most of my time indoors Monday to Friday, training inside or working with clients on the computer. Lacking that daily sun (+UK weather 😫).

L theanine. An extract from green tea. I did a bit of research and it looks really good for energy and focus.

Upped my fats by about 5%. I normally sit between 20 and 25% from healthy fats. But with the lack of sleep and correlated inflammation that brings, I think I needed more for hormone balance and to bring inflammation down.

Within two weeks my training feels far more energised and I'm recovering better, which is a great sign. I've still got blood work coming to compare against all this and see where else I might be missing something.

It's made me realise the value of actually looking at what's going into my body. The more data you get, the more you can improve gradually.

Quick note. This is just what's working for me. I'm using here more as a training log now, talking through the challenges I face and what helps. So it's by no means nutrition advice. We're all different, so always do your own research and check with your GP before changing anything.
