Happy birthday to my everything ♥️

Hand in hand till the end of time

Life on repeat 💙

To everyone who has any interest in fitness. You don’t need to look or train a certain way just because this is what’s “trendy” now. Yoga, Pilates, hyrox, running, body building whatever it is. If it’s not for you, If it doesn’t serve your goals, DO NOT DO IT.

I’ve done almost no isolation exercises my entire life. No hundreds of sit-ups or crunches.
No steroids, peptides, or performance enhancing drugs. No keto, vegan, paleo, carnivore or any of that. I eat normally, based on what my body needs. I enjoy a good meal and dessert here and there.

I do frequent lab testing and try to keep my vitamins and minerals balanced.

I am not Superman. I get injured and have nagging pains all the time. I’ve never rested more than 2 consecutive days my entire adulthood unless I’m sick or injured. But I know that’s the price of what I do and I accept it.

I train with a purpose. I train like an athlete. I don’t train for general wellbeing and I don’t care that much about how I look. I train for performance. This is what drives me; to be better than I was yesterday.

I’m not saying this is the right way. It’s just my way, built over 20 years of training, learning, experimenting and adjusting. I enjoy the journey, I’m grateful for what my body allows me to do and I make the necessary changes when it tells me something isn’t working.

There’s no one-size-fits-all.

This is my career. My life. My identity. But it’s not yours. You have a different path in life and fitness is one component of your life not your identity.

Do what works for you. Find what you enjoy, what your body responds to and what you can sustain. No one way is better than the rest. Dont buy programs, subscriptions and diet plans that you don’t need. Make sure whatever you do is aligned with YOUR goals. Don’t blindly follow what someone else is doing. What works for him doesn’t necessarily work for you.

Much love 💙

خلينا نتفق على حاجة.

هو مفيش رقم 1. ومفيش ترتيب. ومفيش أنا أحسن واحد، أو أكبر واحد، أو أول واحد.

لو إنت محتاج تقول حاجة عن نفسك، فأنت غالبًا فقدت جزء كبير من مصداقيتها. ولو محتاج تحس إنك أحسن من اللي حواليك عشان تحس إنك كويس، فده غالبًا معناه إن عندك مشكلة أكبر محتاج تشتغل عليها.

اللي بيسعى وبينجح وبيكبر بجد، بيركز في طريقه وفي نفسه وفي تطوير اللي عنده. معندوش طاقة ولا وقت ولا تركيز إنه يبص مين حواليه أو يقارن نفسه بحد.

ولو ربنا حطك في مكان ليك فيه audience، حتى لو ألف follower بس، احترم عقول الناس واحترم المكان اللي إنت فيه. قدم حاجة محترمة، احترم اللي حواليك، واسعى واجتهد وسيب شغلك ونتايجك هما اللي يتكلموا عنك.

ساعتها، إنت أول واحد هيرتاح.

Happy birthday to my SOUL. The one who healed pain she never knew existed and the glue that holds our family together. ❤️

كل سنة وانتي روحي ❤️🫠

Came home with the first flag of the season but if I’m honest, that doesn’t matter much. I got home with memories of endless smiles after hard moments and Sharing this journey with people who genuinely make it special. ❤️ 🇪🇬 🇹🇷
