Be Grateful for What You Have. It may Not Always be There!

In Featured, News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

In this world of want, want, want our greed will often lead to our demise!

If your life is heading in the right direction look at the reasons why that is happening and consolidate those factors. Don’t buy into anything that may jeopardise that.

Whatever is making you feel good now will always make you feel that way. Yes, by all means explore this amazing world and everything it has to offer, as that is how you found what you have today. But beware, your actions of today will bear the fruits of tomorrow.

Holidays – The All Round Recharge – Make it Work for You!

In Featured, News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

Holidays, such as Easter provide many people with a four day break from work. That mental break and recharge is important to most. But, did you take three steps forward and four back? You most likely did!

This team of year also usually coincides with a change in nutrition. Clean eating can slip a little and poor eating can also become poorer. The end result of this can often be mentally damaging. Where your hard work has stalled, or you actually feel far worse than you ever did. This immediately puts you on the back foot with the return to your regular routine.

So did you really recharge, or regress?

Plan your next holiday period. Set goals and stick to them rigidly. For someone who has never done this a good starting point is to make the final day a clean day, with clean eating and plenty of hydration and some mild exercise. This will put you on the front foot mentally for the return to your regular routine.

Contact us today – for other positive tactics during the holiday period:

How Do I create More Hours in a Day? You Train for it!

In Featured, News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

Say what? Like every other large task you need to achieve in life. Instead of launching straight into it, you need to build into it.

What do all these have in common?

  • You want to drop 10kg, so you go on a crash diet
  • You want to run a marathon, so you attempt it in week 1
  • You want to earn more money, so you take on a second and third job
  • You want to get up an hour earlier every day to walk before work

Failure is the likely outcome. Because you haven’t slowly trained for this. The body and mind cannot handle extreme change over an extended period. As resilient as we are, there are limits.

Break these tasks down into very achievable sub-tasks. And let’s start with the easiest one – the walk before work.

  • Day 1 – get out of bed 10 mins earlier than usual to get your faculties together and to realise that this is easy and I can do more.
  • Day 2 – up 20 mins earlier. Prepare your walking clothing for the next day.
  • Day 3 – up 30 mins earlier. Go for a 20 min walk.
  • Day 4 – up 40 mins earlier. Go for a 30 min walk.

And you know the rest.

This is exactly how you create more hours in a day by training for it. Meanwhile you are also far less likely to fail at you set task as you have built into it!

Contact us today – to learn how to buy time and lessen your failure rate:

Do You Understand Your Bodies Reaction to its Environment?

In News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

No one does as there are many factors and X factors at play!

If you follow the exact same routine Mon-Fri why should anything be different? You get up at the same time, go to work at the same time, eat pretty much the same thing every day, then go to bed at the same time every night.

Some of the factors that impact on you and your body are weather, stress, illness & injury. The X factors are the unknown impacts in your life and many of these surround nutrition and what we ingest, and don’t ingest. Keeping the gut calm, the blood sugar regular, the vitamin and minerals balanced and the hydration optimal are the four keys.

This has taken me years to master through trial and error and education!

Will You Ever Inspire Anyone? Of Course You Will!

In News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

Sounds ludicrous doesn’t it? Who the hell would look up to me as a source of inspiration? The world will!

If you are achieving something someone has dreamed of be rest assured you are inspiring them. The world of social media has enabled that.

Every female competitor I have ever coached for the stage has sent me a picture of another female on social media with the caption “I want to look like her!” My answer is “You’ll be better than that.”

At the end of the my competitors journey I tell them that their stage pictures are definitely being sent to other coaches by other girls with the same caption. You are now an inspiration!

Contact us today – to be that source of inspiration to others

You Train Hard – But Do You Train Efficiently?

In News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

You believe you train hard and that’s great! If you are giving it your all and are totally pumped and exhausted by the end of you workout then you cannot question your commitment. But, are you getting from point A to point B in the quickest possible way?

Efficient training is the best way to train. You won’t be compromising perceived effort or rate of exertion, but you will be assisting optimal muscle growth.

By lowering your weight and really focusing on the muscle group you are training is the most efficient way to train. It reduces the risk of injury and puts your maximum effort into stimulating the target muscle group.

Most people will go to the same commercial gym year after year. Look around you. How many of these people can you say have visually added muscle mass to their frame in the last year, including you? The answer will likely be zero.

Contact us today – to train efficiently and watch the growth occur!

Are you caught up in the hype?

In News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

Today the mainstream media and social media will have you believe anything. Whether it is true, fabricated or fundamentally flawed…..they will make you a follower!

Most people in our society will go with the flow and jump on any bandwagon through fear of ostracization or exclusion by their perceived circle of friends. Or they will align themselves with the highest authority delivering the message, even though they may not believe that message to be true.

If you are one of these people your life is probably stagnant and you are an underachiever who has never amounted to much in life, and never will.

All the successful people in this world are that way for a reason. They are different. They don’t follow what they are told by the mainstream media or the wannabes on social media.

Study these people, learn what they did to achieve greatness and leave the hype to the rest of society to get caught up in!

Priorities – Get Yours in Order!

In News & Events by KenLeave a Comment

Mine is to optimise full mental and physical functionality for the longest time period possible. What’s yours?

That’s right! Everything I do is to maximise my quality and length of life. As I age I am becoming more attuned every day to what my body needs, and doesn’t need.

Surrounding myself with positive, honest and real people is one of my strengths for mental integrity. In turn, if anyone breaches any of these I will ruthlessly remove them from my life. Tolerance can only last a short infinite time.

Physically, I continue to educate myself and listen to my body. If you have a headache or a stomach ache there is always a reason for that. I am now very adept at identifying the reason and eliminating the cause. I never take painkillers as these only mask the symptoms.

I have adopted these, and many other life extending principles over the last 15 or so years. When I turned 40 the light bulb came on and I put my longevity plan into action. If I hadn’t, you wouldn’t be reading this today!
