25.01.2022 The day you stop focusing on what other people do, is the day you will start making progress. - I'm not saying the journey will be easy. You will have to stay consistent and make sacrifices. - But in the end a healthier happier you is worth the grind. My job is simply to make you're journey easier. 105kg to 78kg. @ Anytime Fitness

25.01.2022 James deadlift speed comparison. 1st video is from 10 weeks ago. James deadlifted 150kg for the first time. 2nd video is from this weeks session. 150kg moving really smooth. James will be going for a new 1 rep soon. ... Side note: Starting to learn how to edit videos to upload more content frequently.

23.01.2022 Joe has lost 5kg over the last 8 weeks. Those weeks included Christmas, new year's and Chinese New year's. Where he wasn't too restrictived and enjoyed time with loved ones. - He had already been on the journey for around a year doing cardio only on his own - Once we started training together we introduced strength training with free weights,the fat started stripping off. His basketball performance also improved. ... - Good job Joe! Hard work pays off!!! See more

21.01.2022 Volume training (8-12 reps) develops muscle and is key for strength gains. In my opinion it also toughens you up. The last rep of the last set can feel very close to a 1rep (if rest period is adequate). Bracing when out of breath can be really challenging. Last week Andy peaked and performed a 110kg Squat! Here is the last set of this week’s squat 4 x 10 x 65kg.

21.01.2022 240kg x1 Deadlift attempt. body weight of 78.5. Just over 3x body weight RPE 8.5 Could I have lifted more weight? yes Would I have had to sacrifice form? maybe Will having an extra rep make a huge difference in overall development? No, I could always perform extra accesory work to further stimulate certain muscles.... WIll trying to perform an extra rep with poor form and perhaps hitching the weight up, increase the risk of injury? yes No one aims to get injured. Lowering the risk of injury is as good as we can do. Gauging maximal strength allows to determine an adecuate hyperthrophy range. Happy to have lifted 240kg after dropping 6kg since last attempting it.

20.01.2022 https://vimeo.com/226404896 Cheyenne has kept training week after week since the video was made 5 months ago . She has lost 20kg since then. Keep up the good work Cheyenne!! 2017 was finally the year you commited and took control of your health. Just under 60Kg loss.

18.01.2022 Deeanna has been focused on developing her bench press technique. Once she could hardly press the bar by itself - now she has gained the stregnth and learnt the correct form to properly bench a full 20kg! Stay focused on your goals and it'll lead you to results! #acfitness8mp #bench #strength #training #smashinggoals #gains #anytimefitness #anytimefitnesseightmileplains @ Anytime Fitness

14.01.2022 My take on natural fatloss. Reflections on my journey while I'm currently sick. - An individual reaches a point where they are no longer happy with their physique is or generally concerned with their health AND CHOOSES TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT! GREAT! - Cue IFBB coach (using special sauce) or genetic freak(those people that had abs at school without training much). Yes at first anything you do will help you because you weren't doing anything and now you are training 5-6x ...a week. Your body will adapt and develop. - But since you don't have the SPECIAL SAUCE or freak genetics you shortly realise your journey is no where near as productive as theirs becoming unmotivated and potentially quitting. - The protocols to maintain, gain and drop body weight are mainly different IN NUTRITION. Training performance should always be looked to be improved. Variables of training are managed differently. - We are all in different industries. Mine is fitness. When was the last time that a shortcut in your industry turned out too good and was true? Was it as good as doing things properly? - THE HARD TRUTH - How long did it take you to reach this point where you are concerned of your physique or health? Do you expect to change that in 8 weeks? You can 100% improve in 8 weeks but it won't reach your dream physique as often highlighted in an insta 8 week post. Never try to take a shortcut because often shortcuts don't work long term. - I only say this because I care. Because I'm one of you. It took me 22 years to improve my physique. I was the fat kid. Through out highschool I did tennis reaching state level . Training 3x a week(2hrs training +1hr fitness after). I also did taekwondo 3x a week (2hrs). Reaching black belt 2nd dan. Did all this extra physical activity while still being the fat kid. Hence why I mention genetics so much. - I also tried a PT! Looking back he was a bro who was clueless of how the body works. I care so much about fitness that I'm completing a degree in exercise and sport science to learn things properly. - If you want to be in better shape by summer let me help you with strategies you can sustain for life! @ Anytime Fitness See more

13.01.2022 James’s one rep is an example of most people’s fitness journeys. Everything’s going well; consistent; good form and posture, but struggles in finishing the squat. Good thing I was there to encourage James not give up and to push through the rep. I’ve been training with James for almost a year now. The first 6 months was all about the bench press and for the past 4 months we’ve been working on squats. During our first squat session, I explained the importance of bracing (p...osture and breathing) and taught him the necessary skills and techniques. We then focused on his form, increased his strength and through this hard work and dedication, James successfully achieved a 120kg squat. It’s not often I see tall guys squatting, let alone see the depth that James achieved where his hips were parallel or just below the hips whilst maintaining good form. This is referred to as hit depth. Squats are more challenging for taller clients because the bar must travel a longer distance to reach the correct depth. This did not stop James, who stands at 190cm (6’3) putting in the effort and personal drive to succeed. Good job James, I knew you could do it. Keep up the great work! The next exercise on his list is my favourite, the deadlift.

13.01.2022 Healthy Pizza Vs Thin crust supreme (domino's) comparison Can I lose weight eating this? It depends. The most important factor for weightloss is overall caloric intake throughout the week. My goal is simply to expose you to healthier options/lower calorie version of the meals we crave and avoid due to guilt. ... Long term success is not about restriction but about better choices.

13.01.2022 7 months into training with James. When we started it only took two push ups before his previous injuries would flair up. Now he can pump out 25, and he keeps climbing higher with every session. Proper form and technique give the results you need. #acfitness8mp #bench #squats #strength #training #fitness #muscle #progressiveoverload #bulking #cutting #progress #recomp #fatloss #gains #powerlifting #bodybuilding #body

08.01.2022 Transitioning from beginner to intermediate can can be tough! Why? - Because when you are a beginner(first 4-6months of training) anything you do with consistency will get you some results. - However, as an intermediate or advanced gym goer consistency is no longer enough. You can't continue doing a bit of this and a bit of that every session if you are looking to progress further. ... - Were you making good development but seem a bit stuck? Don't continue the loop hole of coming to the gym to try the latest workout you saw online. - Summer Bodies are made in winter! Let me help and guide you through your journey so you can get the best results. - Ps. James is 190cm tall. If he can squat to parallel, so could you! See more

07.01.2022 2nd set from today's 5 sets x 4 reps x 220kgs Was not a good idea to do deadlifts fasted (no breakfast) , the last reps of set and 4-5 were a bit slow but still got them. Back to 8 reps next week ....

06.01.2022 Saturday session. Rainy weather but still getting it done! Like father like son! Jose deloading with deficit singles at 170kg & Eddie 68 years young top set doubles at 100kg

06.01.2022 James has been grinding through his goals over the past few weeks. A month ago he aimed to bench 1 rep at 100kg. Now he's smashed that goal, and set another; 100kg at 5 reps. Everytime he reaches a mile stone, he sets another one even higher, constantly chasing that development. His consistency and maintained focus is what's getting him through the grind, allowing him to reach every goal he sets. #acfitness8mp #anytimefitness #anytimefitnesseightmileplains #strength #training #gains #smashinggoals #strength #bulking #progress #fitness #bodybuilding @ Anytime Fitness

06.01.2022 Meet Keith the dentist. Having a pretty busy schedule still manages to come in to train 2 times a week. His goal was to improve posture and alleviate some back pain. Feeling stronger and better than ever can now squat 100kg for 5 reps now. Amazing work! Remember a little bit of progress can add up to big results! Keep going mate #anytimefitnessaustralia #anytimefitnesseightmileplains #perosnaltrainer

05.01.2022 High protein homemade ramen Average ramen bowl isn't enough for my hunger levels. Often topped up with sides of teriyaki chicken and takoyaki balls to reach a good satiety level. Average ramen bowl ranges from 600-900 calories depending on what you get. plus sides maybe a 1000-1300 meal all together.... This is my home made version. You can see my bowl is much larger than the average ramen bowl. For the same 600 calories and better macros. Recipe serves 2. Give it a go. Perhaps add things you like.

05.01.2022 Eddie used to suffer from back pain. He has now cut down on pain killers and has lost 4kgs. After practicing the deadlift for a few weeks he peaked last week at 95kgs. Week after week Eddie Pastor tracks his macros and moves forwards towards his fitness goal!

01.01.2022 Jon works out 3 times a week and is getting good results. We keep it simple, main compounds, face pulls and a little bit of cardio. In and out of the gym in less than an hour. HOW? Jon tracks his calories/macros and understands weightloss is a marathon not a sprint. 1 day a week(saturday) he has a refeed day that can be up to 3000 calories if needed. Every other day of the week he is in deficit. Today Jon maxed out deadlift at 120kg. Although Jon isn't chasing the strength... gains it is important to test his 1 rep (or 1 rep equivalent via amrap at lighter %) to re adjust the overall % of volume training. Is great to see clients succeed. Consistency and hard work pay off. Putting in the time and effort but not seeing the results?

01.01.2022 Doesn't matter if you're cutting or bulking. Tracking macros will always make it easier to achieve your fitness goal. I know for some people is not realistic to carry a food scale or be 100% correct with their macros but if you're training 5 times a week and not getting results I would highly recommend that you give up a training session to figure out how many calories you're consuming. A quick cheat sheet that will make things easier. ... -source : http://ownyoureating.com//just-tell-me-what-to-eat-macro-/ See more
