I was seventeen
when I got my own
key to the gym.
School gym, aged 17. I went so often the teachers just gave me a key so I could stop asking. That was the start of it. The results came fast, even with barely any knowledge, and that was enough to hook me for life. Twenty odd years later, I'm still hooked.
Everything since has been self-taught. No coach, ever. I comp prepped myself, won my own competitions, taught myself meal prep and cooking from scratch, taught myself nutrition, supplements, performance nutrition, and the difference between what actually works and what's just marketing. I'm the person who gets genuinely excited reading a double blind, placebo controlled study on a new supplement or training protocol. Still am, at 40.
Two titles.
Top six at the
British finals.
Won at a high level, twice. Placed in the top six nationally. Not from following someone else's programme, but from two decades of building, testing and refining my own.
I've never needed a certificate to know what works. Two decades of self-testing on my own body, backed by the research, has taught me more than a weekend course ever could.

This isn't a diet.
It's how you're
meant to live.
Society treats eating well and training hard like an inconvenience, something you suffer through for a few months before going back to normal. I think that's backwards. Meal prepping, training consistently and taking care of yourself isn't a punishment. It's how you're supposed to live, and it feels good once it's actually a habit rather than a chore.
I'm not interested in coaching someone through three or six months and watching it unravel the week after. I'm interested in handing over a way of living that outlasts the block entirely. That's the only version of this worth doing, for both of us.
