You’re the only one who can make the changes.
You don’t need a new diet, a new training plan, a new morning routine, you need to be accountable for your health and if you can’t alone, us professionals are here for a reason.

When you stop blaming on everything and anything for your health situation you become unstoppable
There might be many things that we cannot control but the fundamentals ( sleep, nutrition, movement) is often up to us.

I’ll never judge anyone for how the chose to exercise. You’ll never hear me saying that walking, Pilates, yoga or any other form of exercises are bad, in fact I encourage everyone to move as much as they can.
Now, the numbers are there and those complication from having low muscle mass and strength are preventable.
Often times, even if we don’t want it, we need to do what we have to do, and strength and resistance training are part of them.
It is my business and it’ll always be.
Don’t ask me to shut up, my voice will only get louder.

VALUES AND STANDARDS

If health is one of your values and regardless of what life throws at you, you keep a minimum standard (not perfection), maintain your most optimal health becomes who you are.

I only hope it’s not too late for you to start taking your strength seriously

NO FUEL=NO FUN

Being tired all the time, having no energy to do your daily tasks, having cravings 24/7, constant energy crashes, underperforming in your training are quite common.
I experienced that when I was under eating.
You don’t need to start eating 3,000 calories a day if that’s not your requirement, but you need to know that if you are not eating enough, your life and health in general will be impacted.

WE TAKE IT FOR GRANTED

If you have two legs that can move and you’re not using them, with all my respect, you’re an inconsiderate human being.
That’s all I have to say.

PROTEIN

Thinking that protein will make you stronger without training is the same as wearing running shoes hoping that by walking with them you’ll get better at running.
Protein alone won’t change your body composition. We need the training and protein BOTH!

PILATES

Pilates is great yes and it’s also not enough stimulus for your muscles or change body composition. It misses the key components that makes strength training unique, progressive overload and intensity.
If your goal is to maintain and grow muscle, to prevent muscle loss related to aging, to maintain bone mineral density, Pilates is not enough.
It’s not this or that, it’s this AND that.

SEDENTARY LIFE

“I’m so busy” doesn’t equal “I’m physically active”
Sedentary lifestyle is a silent killer.
You don’t need to walk 20km every single day. But we are definitely made to move.
Incorporating movement throughout the day makes a difference.
Take the stairs. Park further from your destination. Take breaks from your desk and walk around. Walk your dog for longer.
Movement is medicine.

DRIVING FORCE

We human beings typically do things to
1. Avoid pain
2. Gain pleasure
Starting lifting gave me the second and that made fall into the spiral of loving it more and more. I wanted better for myself, I don’t wanna end up frail and weak as I grow old.
That’s my personal driving force, we all might need it at some point, what’s yours?
