Naturally Strong??

Thursday, February 18th, 2010

Funny thing happened there a few weeks ago…

-

A few of the ABS guinea pigs (Marc Hartigan, Dave Gorman and Robbie Cannon) were training together…


I have trained them all at some point and now they are training themselves because I have done such a great job they don’t need me anymore :-)

Yea on with the story…

The lads were training away and someone who had been Olympic lifting in a smith machine (FAIL) came up and said

-

“all of you guys are naturally strong…you’s should think about competing… I’ll train ya’s”

-

I hardly think a group of 8 random guys are going to be ‘naturally strong’ …it probably has something to do with their training :-)

Hi Bryan!!

I have to apologize as I’ve been putting this email off for so long as I keep telling myself I’ll spend some time writing a meaningful one! I hope you and Ian are having a faaabulous start to the year!!

And Bryan, thank you so much for taking the time to reply to my earlier questions! Your advice was really crucial. I was spiraling down in my body weight late last summer into december, even though my Body Fat was dropping and my strength was increasing.

However, I took your advice to heart in how to add the calories and it’s really good to see results showing after such hard work. I’ve put on a solid 5lbs (muscle mostly) while my BF is decreasing… but I just have to keep at it and keep eating and the results will come if I’m patient!

Again I know there are just numbers but it really helps tracking the progress right? :) .

I hope You and Ian are having a great time training clients in the ABS temple ;-) ! I will definitely be in touch as to how my progress is going in the next few weeks… months. I can’t wait for any updates you guys have as well this coming year!!

P.S: Ian… Thank you so much for the feedback via facebook last day!! You two are just plain amazing!! Thank you for all your help and knowledge. It’s one thing to reach your goals and its a whole different story to share that knowledge to help others reach their goals.

Personal Training In Dublin Just Got Better

I’ve been quiet the last few weeks but that doesnt mean I wasnt doing anything!

On the contrary I have been p r e t t y busy but im still here.

I successfully launched my new training system ‘Athlete Physique’ to a small number of people.

Jay Beasley competed in the NABBA competition in the Olympia Theatre and I just so happened to get the keys to my new Personal training studio just next door to the Olympia that very day! Weird eh?

Dame Street way...

Its a quality place; small and personal, yet well equipped and in a perfect location.

Eating Healthy. Meal Timing, Portion Control And Satiety

Thursday, June 25th, 2009

Write it all down!

That’s it, simple as that!

Even if you don’t have a training/Nutrition diary (which you should) you should really take on this practice now.

You see, logging what you eat will make you aware of the mess you are making of yourself! It’s ok to eat and forget but when the amount you ate is there staring at you it’s very hard to go really overboard!

If you document what you are eating and write down the quantity and time you last ate and when your next meal is due you will not eat nearly as much! Align your eating plans through the days that you are only allowed a meal every 3-4 hours! I know it’s not ideal but its realistic and you could save yourself 3-4 snacks through the day that may add up to 1000’s of calories!

What amazes me is how much people underestimate what they eat.

Come On Tell The Truth!

Come On Tell The Truth!

A fruit salad becomes a FRUIT SALAD, and a portion of green vegetables becomes and big smelly load of potatoes.

Thats More Like It!

Thats More Like It!

I am not imagining this.

A recent study concluded that people who are asked to monitor and later estimate the amount of calories they are taking in are only allowing for 35% of the calories the consumed. I.e. they recorded 1100 and in actual fact they consumed 3000!

Sadly I am not overestimating, its the truth. Yet these same people spend 1000’s on weight watchers and diet pills and fat blockers such as ‘Alli’ and carb blockers. Even if they did do all the magical things they say they do, 1900 kcals in a day?

Eh…NO

So what i want you to do is start writing down what it is you are eating and when. it will make you aware of where your dietary mistakes lie and how to combat them.

The problem with that is people write everything down and then …nothing. They dont lose weight and come crying to me about it.

What I want you to do is …

Drum Roll Please…

Write it down and then … actually look at it afterwards!

Look at where your slipping and where you can improve. I have used this technique with a few clients lately with great success! They actually diagnose their own problem and formulate a solution all by themselves.

I have even wen to the bother of putting this special report together for you over the last couple evenings!
