Karl Leavey Coaching

Learning to do what’s good for your future self, and not putting all of your focus on that instant dopamine hit day-in-day-out, is a skill.

And every time you put the work in towards that bigger picture goal, you strengthen that skill.

Put the work in. Delay your gratification.

I promise you, your future self will thank you

You may not realise it at the time, but quite often the things that hurt you end up becoming the things that shape your life for the better

Growing your back isn’t just about adding more weight or doing more sets.

A lot of the time, progress comes down to how you’re performing your pulling movements.

In this reel, I cover three simple fixes that can make a huge difference to your back training and help you get more from every rep.

Give them a try in your next session and let me know which one made the biggest difference.

Have any back training questions? Drop them in the comments and I’ll do my best to help.

For me, Coaching is way more than throwing together a plan and seeing how you get on at the end of each week

I need to be there for the whole journey, whether it’s regular refinements and education around diet and nutrition, slowly building better habits over time and ramping up activity level - it’s important I am there every step of the way

And one of the biggest aspects for me is making sure each clients training is optimised. Every step of the way.
No point in me throwing you a program and hoping for the best.

I want to SEE that you’re not only able to execute to the absolute best of your ability, but I want you to know WHY you are doing what you’re doing, and exactly how well (or not) you are at every corner.

Keeping the lines of communication like this open ensures that you get the absolute most out of the journey, and removes the guesswork entirely

Guess what - not every single recipe has to be loaded with protein. Shock horror!

If you’re getting your protein in throughout the day with the rest of your diet, sometimes in the evening you fancy an easy-to-make, healthy sweet treat.

And you can make these with stuff you likely already have in the pantry

If so, give these a go, and let me know how you get on

If you’re constantly leaning forward at the bottom of your squat, don’t assume it’s just “bad technique.”

It could be:
• Your stance.
• Limited ankle mobility.
• A weak brace.

The key is to film yourself from the side, identify what’s happening, make one change at a time, and retest.

Small adjustments can make a huge difference to how your squat looks, feels, and performs.

Have you ever struggled with your squat? Let me know what’s been holding you back.

Nothing changes in life until you are willing to change

And in order to change, you need to be willing to sit in the discomfort, to challenge yourself over and over again, to be in situations you don’t want to be in

Because as soon as you are willing to embrace the suck, the sooner things will turn around for you for the better
