A little bit of Monday motivation for you who feel like skipping the gym this week or sacking off nutrition 🔥
Be the 1% that take action towards their goals ✅
Not the 99% that have said they’d take action for the past 5 years and still haven’t done anything about it ❌

106kg to 79kg in 11 months 🤯
I rarely post transformation photos as I believe they don’t always tell the full story
However I’ve shared James’ photos since the beginning so thought I’d provide an update!
The last time I posted him, we were on the road to 85kg
Now, we’ve just tapped into 79kg and are on the last stretch of the cut down to 75kg
Yes, he’s dropped a ton of body fat
But the muscle mass he’s added has been the standout for me 💪🏻
To a lot of people, you probably assume this takes a ridiculous amount of effort and sacrifice
But in reality, this has actually been a fairly simple process to achieve!
❌ No fancy myths or hacks
❌ Zero cardio
How did we do it?
✅ By nailing the basics
✅ Doing them consistently for a long period of time
I’ll post another update to show the further changes made when we hit 75kg!
The Irish are flying 🇮🇪

Do you hate dieting?
Dieting can be as fun, or as ruthless as you make it
Granted at times it’s never fun 😂
However there are certainly ways to make it a little less of a struggle for yourself!
If all you’re consuming is fast digesting, processed food that leaves you still craving food an hour later, then yes, your diet will not be a fun time 😂
Take note of those 5 hunger hacks in this post and your dieting phase will get way more enjoyable, and sustainable!

⚠️ Weight loss and fat loss are two different things!
These may sound like the same thing however they are completely different!
If you ate no carbs today, and drank a few glasses of wine this evening, then weighed yourself tomorrow morning
You’d feel like you’ve just found the ultimate weight loss hack!
The scales will be down by a few lbs, even kgs!
Amazing right?
Wrong
This weight is purely just dropped water weight and the next day, it goes straight back on
The scales are an absolutely amazing tool when it comes to monitoring your fat loss journey, however only if you understand the many variables that can cause fluctuations!
Things to do when using scales
✅ Weigh yourself daily, not weekly
✅ Don’t get fixated on daily weight loss, focus on weekly averages
✅ Don’t make emotional decisions based on changes in bodyweight each day
I can’t stress enough how important these pointers are
Bodyweight can change so much, so if you’re only weighing once per week, you may have made progress, however if you’ve had a sudden spike in water weight on weigh in day for example, you’ll think you’ve gained fat
This can lead to impulse panic decisions being made
These panic decisions can also happen midweek if you’re expecting to see a drop in weight every single day
If you go up in weight for a couple of days during the week, the worst thing you can do is panic and then start doing more cardio or reducing calorie intake more
You’ve made an unnecessary decision based on data that could have been affected by any # of the factors listed in this post
You’re now dieting too aggressively when in fact, your original approach was absolutely fine and didn’t need any change at all
Your journey just became way less sustainable and way less enjoyable!
Bodyweight is an amazing tool, but be sure to understand the variables otherwise it can cause you more harm than good!
