Today was another example of exactly why you need Coaches! Stepping way out of my comfort zone today to strip down to my trunks and work on my "posing" with one of the world's best posing Coaches, Craig Lucas. Rather than waste time trying to work this out myself, I found one of the leaders in the industry to dramatically improve my posing within 1 hour. All working towards my own personal body transformation by 19 November 2020.
With the best laid plans, sometimes you can still fail. Today I had that experience. Learning from your mistakes & keep driving forward is what is essential
Today I discuss in detail 6 strategies to help you keep getting back up no matter how many times you get knocked down
Which is more important to you price or the value? Today I had an interesting discussion with a potentially new client on this very topic because she told me I was Waaaay to expensive
This past week I've been predicting that things are about to get worse with COVID and yesterday, like a slap in the face, it came to us. BUT, it never matters what is going on around us if we have the right strength of mindset, focus and drive to keep taking steps forward following our passion.
If we've learnt nothing else over the past 90 days, we should all have learnt this - change is constant and can come from the most unexpected places at the unexpected times. In my home state of Victoria, Australia this year we were hit with the worst bushfires in the past 100 years. Weeks later, we have coronavirus come and hit us in the face like a snowball. Destroying businesses and livelihoods. Yesterday, we have our Prime Minister talking about elaborate cyber attacks from sophisticated countries trying to create further doubt, fear and uncertainty.
We can't stop change. But what we CAN always do is work on our mindset, becoming stronger, innovative, creative so that ANY change that is thrown at us can be easily dealt with!
Today I talk specifically about men’s health & the key attributes is men can focus on to make a difference for ourselves
Today I discuss some great examples of how communication from others and communication to ourselves is can be the difference between success, failure, angst and clarity.
Some days can seem like a battle ground! Yesterday for me started off amazingly, but ended in a world of hurt and frustration. This is when you need to know whether to keep pushing through or walk away.
With only 6 days to go until we can re-open the Studio, we've had a local COVID disaster which threatens to cause more mayhem. Today I discuss our plans in getting ready for the re-opening, managing risk and staying focused and head-strong with alternate plans.
It's time to get started. Stop procrastinating and just do it! You don't have to do a lot, you can do a little. It will start making the world of difference to your mental health and be a step in helping you focus on what is important to you.
If you're feeling a little flat, in a rut and just don't know how to bust out of it, try this. How can you make a meaningful contribution to someone else? It will shift your thinking and open up another side of your mind, heart and spirit. EVERYONE is doing it tough on one level or another so you know that everyone would be grateful for some more lovin' right now. This may be just the spark YOU need right now to focus on what's important to you. Don't just think about it. Go do it now! Listen inside for my strategies.
After being locked down for 90 days, coming into a "new normal" way of living with COVID-19 within Australia, seeing the world headlines for the growing death toll from the virus and having much household uncertainty about what the future looks like, it's clear that many are fighting the struggle of their life right now. I'm having more conversations with people on a daily basis who are struggling with their health and fitness as a result of the change and uncertainty. Today I share some fundamental, proven strategies to winnning the fight!
One aspect of life is very clear to me. If you want MORE of anything, you have to do MORE! Success in any area of your life won't just happen to you. You have to go out and get it. I guarantee, if you're not where you want to be right now... you need to do more!
In today's episode I'm showing you the 5 ways you can use to construct the right snacks to stay satisfied, motivated and burn fat while you sleep! This is super powerful information that anyone wanting to optimise their health and reduce fat should listen to.
Today we see the CEO of Crossfit, Greg Glassman have his reputation completely destroyed because of a racist tweet. This one tweet has devastated people around the globe, had hundreds of athletes come out publicly and distance themselves from the company. Sponsors have walked away from Crossfit and the entire brand is in crisis mode.
Super excited today to announce that I've been invited to record a new radio show on my Coach's online platform. Received the call at 2.22am this morning and excited to tell you more about it.
Are you on track with your health, fitness and life goals? How would you know? What can you do now to start creating the momentum you need to accomplish your goals.
We all face challenges when it comes to reaching our fitness goals. For some it's time, money, drive, motivation, accountability, food, training, consistency or a combination of all of these factors. Today I share what I personally find challenging and how I put strategies in place to overcome them.
There's a lot of people out there starting to struggle with their health and fitness - losing focus and feeling like ALL their good work has been undone. As we get closer to the end of our shut down in my community you can see energy levels falling. This is the time to step up people and shine through. Take control, stay tough and keep pushing.
An exciting milestone, apparently Amazon sold out of Awaken the Sexy Within!! Wooo hoooo!!!!
With the rioting spiraling out of control in the US it is clear that we still have a long way to come as a human race.
With the fantastic progress I’ve made over the past 9 weeks it’s time to move onto “what’s next” & take things that I’m weak at to a new level of success.
By the time I can reopen my Studio it will be approximately 90 days since it closed. Today I reflect on what I’ve done with my time. Surprising....
In Australia we are about to hit our Winter which brings with it a temptation to become seasonally health and fitness focused. What I mean is someone that hibernates for the Winter season with their exercise and becoming less focused on nourishing your body with healthy and nutritious foods, only to come out of hibernation when the weather becomes sunny and warm. Sound familiar?
But how is this Winter for Aussies going to be different to others? This year we are dealing with covid-19 as well. Will that mean going deeper into hibernation?
Your health and body transformation comprises of a number of components, like links in a chain. From your mindset, to your goals, your emotional state, your food, training sessions, tracking of each step. How strong is the chain? As strong as it's weakest link. Are ALL your links strong?
Today I'm reflecting about what I've missed over this past 9 weeks of coronavirus shutdown. What have you missed?
What a nice surprise it was to hear yesterday that from 1 June we can have up to 20 people again in our Boot Camp classes and from 22 June we can open up our Studio again and gyms throughout Victoria can recommence the road back to helping more people achieve their health and fitness goals. I know so many of you have missed training in our Studio ..... not much longer to wait!!
Such excitement! But let's still keep doing the right thing with our own personal hygeine and social distancing as we will only get out of this if we're ALL sensible.
With the lockdown in my State reaching the 8 week mark, you can tell that the impact it's having on some people is becoming stronger and making them more anxious and uncertain about their future. Today I'm focusing on the topic of mental health and how there is light at the end of the tunnerl.
I've been acused of being boring before. BUT, listen to today why I say that boring can be sexy! This is powerful.
Where do you place integrity in your value and belief system? When your back is against the wall your true colours come shining through. Unfortunately during this pandemic we're seeing a number of questionable behaviours from people around the world. Taking advantage of the vulnerable, quesitonable ethics and poor behaviour.
Today I had my second DEXA scan to check my body fat percentage and see the exact results of my hard work over the past 9 weeks. This is an exciting conversation
Today I’m getting practical with planning my next few days with a very hectic weekend - getting it all done
Why do some people achieve phenomenal success with their health, fitness and wellness whilst the majority fail? I say "fail" using the criteria of overweight and obesity - almost 70% of Australians (and Americans) are considered either overweight or obese. To me that is failing to achieve success in your health and fitness.
But some just excel. Why?
We all want change of some sort; health, fitness, weight, money, career, partner. Yet strangely most people don’t respond to change well. People fight it. Change doesn’t have to be big things. I prefer little changes implemented consistently with a much bigger pay off in the future.
One of the most anticiapted announcements in Victoria's recent history came out at 11am this morning. We are moving to roll-back some of the COVID-19 restricitons and we are able to start getting our lives back to the first stage of normality. Stage 2 will be announced in 3 weeks time. Great first step, listen in to how it affects me and my businesses.
On this special Mother's Day I take some time out to reflect on my late Mum and how some of most powerful and instrinsic traits live on through me. How has your Mum helped shape you?
Today I'm interviewing Loz Antonenko, the Healthy Habits Coach. We're discussing how to stay focused, motivated and be an action taker in isolation.
My week started poorly but has finished strongly. Work ethic, strength, courage, focus, determination & a never die attitude to consistently do whatever it takes has made 5 days later completely different.
Don’t wait for the COVID-19 restrictions to be lifted to start getting back on track for your health & fitness. Start now!!
Such a great topic and always great connecting with Vanessa in powerful discussions. There's bucket fulls of gold during our conversation, so please dig in and enjoy!!
Today my first internationally published book is available for sale in US bookstores!!!!
Somedays are just great. Today was one of them. No matter what the challenges, I conquered them.
Wow! What a great productive day. Today I was able to chunk 6 hour blocks of uninterrupted time and got an incredible amount of work done. Felt like I made a week of progress in one day. Super powerful! Love it!
In the most challenging times seen since the Great Depression you could be excused for feeling scared, uncertain, confused, disillusioned and angry. But is that you? Or, do you see this time as opportunity?
Our much missed Fitness Trainer, Elizabeth Staindl, also works as an Emergency Department Nurse and has been spending 50+ hours per week over the past 6 weeks working in Fever Clinics supporting our community through the coronavirus crisis.
Elizabeth took some time out of her schedule to tell me how she's personally managing her own health, fitness and wellness as well as what it's like at the coal-face of the disease.
On behalf all of us, THANK YOU for your selfless work in putting yourself at risk for the benefit of helping protect our community and treat those who have unfortunately been struck down with the disease.
This is a great interview with my friend Heather Joy Bassett, World Champion Lacrose player, International Author, Speaker, Podiatrist and Coach. We're talking about a range of great topics including what enables a small majority of our population to be hugely successful in the space of health and fitness, whilst most fail horribly.
As we are getting closer to Winter and our "normal" cold and flu season about to heat up, today I got the call from my GP that it was time for my flu shot. Whether you've had a flu shot before or completely against immunisation, I recommend you listen to my thoughts and you can make your own assessment. Suffering from some bouts of extreme tiredness, I reverse engineer the cause.
I'd always wanted to be more passionate about who I was, what I stood for and how to get more out of life. I was at the lowest part of my life, going through some of the toughest times. Listen to how my whole world started to change when I became more grateful for all the little things I had in my life. Absolutely life-changing!
With the majority of the population isolating, working & home schooling it makes sense that we are moving less. What is also noticeable is that the number of back complaints that I’m seeing is increasing. This is caused not only by reduced movement but also poor desk set up & seating for those now working at home. Today I’m giving you the gold on how to fix that,
Are we going through a phase of global lowering of standards & expectations when it comes to our performance?
Excellence comes from persistency & consistency. Through that process comes pain & frustration but it’s worth it to get to where you want.
I believe we are living in such a u inquest & exciting time. So much challenge, so much potential for growth. I’ve never been more focused & driven. I love it!! I start each day by outlining my success Outcomes for the day. Today, I had some success but got some fundamentals wrong. Over planned & under performed.
With most of us getting settled into the "new" way of virus life, it's time to start shifting our focus from surviving to thriving. Looking beyond the distraction of havoc, home schooling and whatever else you have going on in your crazy world right now, and shifting towards creating space for you to create BIG CHALLENGING health and fitness goals to achieve by the end of 2020.
One of the most important days in my week - doing the grocery shopping and doing the meal preparation. Crucial for anyone on a body & health transformation journey.
The moments in your life when you grow the most come through adversity. What does that mean for the epidemic we are all experiencing at the moment? Opportunity to grow!
There's a lot of noise at the moment from many people across a variety of industries providing a lot of content. My inbox is being hammered by gurus, influencers and want-reprenuers from around the globe with the "best" advice. How do you filter what is important to you NOW? Take a listen to my advice.
Such an exciting day in announcing the winners of our latest 8-Week Body Blitz Challenge. Take a listen to their inspirational stories and results.
My challenge for you today is to link empowering music to your vision to help drive you when things get tough.
Creating the right lifestyle for yourself is just a decision away. Optimise your health, sustainably, create the right mindset & build the sexy version of you that you want.
How do you stay connected with yourself during a crisis, avoid the fear & thrive rather than just survive?
What an incredible day. Focused, intensely busy day of serving, growth, innovation & meal prep. Love it!
Worlds strongest man Eddie Hall talked about how he was able to shift his world record deadlift from 465kg to being the first person to ever lift 500kg by doing this one thing.
The entire globe is undergoing enormous change at the moment as a result of coronavirus. Self-isolation is something that we are not familiar with when we usually have so much freedom to do what we want, when we want. The manner in which we have become accustomed to our lifestyles has fundamentally changed. We have no certainty as to when our "normal" lives will resume. Challenges are present every day. New and evolving change in this fluid transformation.
Have you taken time out to reflect on how you have responded to this change? If not, do so and see if you're happy with the progress you're making. We all have different challenges. It's not a competition. It's about how each one of us respond, manage and grow from each challenge that comes our way. We all have this same opportunity - the choice to decide to GROW through this crisis or just SURVIVE. No matter what your situation, it's your choice.
The greatest moments of growth in my lifetime have come from enormous amounts of pain and challenge. I didn't let those moments consume me, but rather allowed them to help my response of growth in those instances define the person I wanted to be. I continue to strive for growth EVERY DAY. No exceptions. It's now part of my daily conditioning.
What I've noticed is how much I have grown over the past 3 years - yet it feels like I'm only just beginning. Now that's exciting!
Research has shown that we tend to eat the same 20 foods for our entire life. If we widen the varitey of healthy foods we eat, we give our bodies an opportunity to take up nutrients differently and keep our metabolism fired up by digesting different meals. Now that you most likely have more times on your hands, why not spend some time experimenting with some different colours, flavours and textures to broaden your palette. You may discover some new favourites!
It’s one thing to say you’re going to do something and another to write it down. Taking massive action to commit to your decision & holding yourself accountable to those decisions is what’s crucial to shift you from where you are to where you want to be.
If you were told that you can't exercise, how much of a craving would you have to exercise? It is interesting to see the number of people out walking or riding their bikes at the moment during the shutdown crisis. Not from the perspective of they should be indoors, because we are still allowed to get outdoors for exercise each day and then return home. But moreso because people are spending so much time on their devices and in front of TVs in their own homes that they feel the need to get out. Is it because people have more time on their hands? Is it because they're bored? Is it because all the gyms are closed? I think it's great to see and it feels like we have stepped back in time to an era when TV was less of a focus in our households and physical activity was prominent.
When was the last time you laid down the dreams you want to turn into reality? Stop comparing yourself to your “competition” and create your own path. Define your dreams and go for it like nothing else matters! Clear focus, dedication, consistency and with true purpose & meaning.
7 days after implementing the changes in my nutrition recommended by my Coach I’m reflecting on the results.
During this crisis I often wonder what my grandparents did during the 2nd world war. How were they impacted? How accessible was food & toilet paper! What did they do? How were their jobs impacted? Were they scared? How did they make an income? What was the feeling in the community? How did they grow through the experience?
You need a plan. You need a routine. You need focus, drive & energy. Every day. Make the most of your time in isolation!
As we go into further lockdown of our lifestyles I’m reflecting on the infectious way that exercise has in lifting our spirits & forming a tremendous foundation for goal setting across all areas of our life.
Step up to be the difference in someone elses day. Stay connected with your community, family and loved ones. We are stronger together.
I’m 12 days into my new journey with my Strength & Conditioning Coach and I’ve had some feedback about my current eating. I received some awesome tips to get the change I need. Listen in for the detailed coaching analysis.
As we all transition to a new way of living, today I saw some promising signs that people are finally listening and taking action in my local community. Are people starting to realise that it's up to them to take personal responsibility for staying at home? Are they realising that the sooner we lock down, the sooner we get back to normal? The certainty is uncertain. I'm doing my part and I noticed others doing their part too today. We're all in this together, so let's work together to regain our lives back asap.
As we move through the various increased stages of shutdown, many people are finding much more time on their hands than ever before. Reduced travel times to their work, no work, sporting activities, events, gatherings all shutdown. The question is, what are you doing with YOUR time now? Are you using it wisely or just frittering away the time mindlessly? We all have weaknesses. Today I'm challenging you to identify your top 3 weaknesses and start working on your biggest one first. How many times in your life have you said "I don't have time for that?" NOW, is that time.
The announcement of the federal government’s in the past 48 hrs have completely decimated lives, hopes & dreams of so many. Today I reflect on the impact.
Today we are effectively being "shut down" by the State Government in drastic measures to flatten the curve in coronavirus spreading . At the time of recording the announcement was less than an hour old and a sense of confusion will reign in the coming days as people come to grips with what this all means to themselves, their finances, their livelihoods and day to day movement patterns around their local area. I'm providing my insight into searching for the "good" in this challenging time.
With so much going on globally with coronavirus, today I'm giving an insight into the local impacts on my community, my business and family life.
What if you’re making great progress with awesome results & loving what you’re doing, then your coach says you’ve got to do it completely differently? To get from excellent to outstanding can be just centimetres away but a different approach is what’s required to get there.
In times of uncertainty we can become fearful, panicked, stressed, anxious, angry, upset and disillusioned about our futures. But what we must remember is that disasters come and go and we rebuild together to create better futures for ourselves. This is what will happen afte rthe coronavirus subsides. It will be with us for some time, so today I discuss what we CAN do right now to be in control of what things mean to us.
You can choose to change or you can stay the same. It’s completely your choice. You can be coachable and step up when it's uncomfortable, or you can step away say "I'm right and they're wrong" and remain exactly where you are. Step up people.
I am seeing unprecedented spending patterns in our supermarkets and very selfish behaviours putting those in need under tremendous strain.
There's always at least two ways of looking at things and when it comes to global shutdown of schools, group gatherings, workplaces, travel, businesses and economies, it can create a lot of uncertainty. In times of uncertainty I look for the opportunities. If something is down, something else must be up. Today I explore what you can be doing with your "down time" to shift you from where you are to where you want to be. It's an exciting time to grow!
Daily the growing pandemic of the coronavirus goes to the next level of action around the world. It's time to focus on what YOU can control and not get lost in decisions made by others. Don't underestimate the power of focusing on your own personal health and wellness the world around you appears to be crumbling. This WILL pass, you just need to ride the wave of mayhem in the best possible health you can be.
The results are in, but more importantly, the reason why I had the DEXA scan in the first place. This is setting me up for success for the next 11 months. Find out why...
Mysterious! Today I reveal to you what my plans are for the next 11 months for my health and fitness. Incredibly excited and can't wait to share it with you.
My Coach always tells me that you need to spend 70% of your time building relationships and, although I have some way to get to 70%, I do appreciate the power of creating effective relationships. If you have the mindset of always creating effective relationships, gems can sometimes appear when you least expect it. Today was one of those days for me. Life is about to change...
Why do most people struggle with their health and fitness, whilst others can achieve such incredible results?
Interesting question. I love to learn. I love to grow. How do I seek out Coaches to improve myself? How do I determine the areas I need coaching?
Something happened to me yesterday that NEVER hapens! It completely made me crash and burn. BUT... today is another day and I'm already crushing it!
Fresh air, fresh mindset and ready to get in a super Saturday of productive, focused growth!
Today got off to a horrible start with me sleeping in for an hour and playing catch up all day. I'm feeling run down and pull apart the past few days / weeks to see what has gone wrong.
I'm recounting my experience in being coached to step outside my comfort zone. We often think we are on the right path doing and saying the right things but when we are told that we are not, that can be challenging. This are the defining moments that will determine whether you are coachable or not.
Today I'm having a conversation with my eldest daughter about crazy things done by Dads! Funny memories.
How many times have you heard the word "NO" and have it completely disempower your actions? For me it immobilised me for over a decade. It put me in fear. Fear of rejection. Fear of not being good enough. Fear of failure. Even today I sometimes have to stop myself and say "why are you still worried about NO?" It's taken hard work and a LOT of discomfort, but I now use the word "no" to drive me to take more action across all areas of my life, make myself uncomfortable and do it anyway.
Just so we are clear. When it comes to intimate relations...."no" means "NO", I'm not talking about that no :)
It's no secret that the coronavirus is sweeping the world right now and every day the statistics are getting larger and larger. There are more than 88,000 cases of the virus globally and more than 3,000 have been killed by it. It's now spread to every continent except Antartica. Today, my guest Elizabeth, just returned from Singapore, discuss the impacts of what the virus means to most people and what lays ahead for us all.
After a very busy week, feeling like I just need to spend some time with my two daughters catching up, chilling out and recharging my batteries.
Today I'm reflecting on caronavirus, stalking, gold medalists and how you can learn from me to take your next steps to greatness. Powerful!
I need to get out of the funk I have been in the past couple of days. My productivity has not been at the standard I expect so I've taken serious steps to change. Today I made the decision to raise my standards in my health, wealth, business, relationships and self-improvement. I can't get what I want doing what I've always done, so it's time to implement change.
We are all great story tellers. Whether we are conscious of it or not, we tell ourselves stories every day as to why we can or can't do something. Why we are fearful or brave. Why we procrastinate when we should be in action. Why we are where we are when we want to be anywhere but where you are. How do we unblock that place in your mind to clear the fog and create the empowering path forward to the ultimate health, body and fitness that you crave? Take a listen, I have a specific tool to get you there.
I like to use the analogy of life and progress as being a flight of stairs. You go through periods of time when you're incredibly focused and climbing those stairs, but then you get to the landing platform and some times you keep climbing, sometimes you stay still and catch your breath, sometimes you just stay there, sometimes you climb back down the stairs. The key is how do we keep you climbing those stairs to achieve even greater success than you have right now? The good news is that there is a formula for success and all you need to do is replicate it to get the same results.
Most people answering this question would likely answer a resounding "YES!" But is that really the case? You may think that you're coachable, but do your past interactions, performances, relationships and results truly reflect that you are? The reality for many people is that they don't like to be told what to do and will never be wrong (in their mind). Call it pride, stubborness or stupidity - some people are just not willing to be coachable. They want better results but want to do it their way - that's right, the way that hasn't been working forever for them!!! The energy drainers that are not open to trying a new way of thinking. Guess what - those that aren't coachable usually don't change.... EVER!
Today I was tested. I will only have 3.5 hours sleep before I start my day tomorrow and I'm hungry!!! Huge weekend of coaching, learning, being inspired and networking..Truly amazing event at Isagenix Celebration. Listen to my takeaway insights from the weekend.
What is your identity? How was it defined? Can you change it? What influences you to change? Does your current identity empower or disempower your health & fitness?
Stress is constantly channelled our way every day. How we respond to that stress determines our level of productivity, emotional state, our ability to focus, our energy levels, our relationships and an incredible impact on our mindset, health, fitness and wellness. Why do some people harness stress to their advantage whilst others use it to immobilise themselves? What's the difference and how to we manage our stress levels more effectively?
Do you pass judgement too quickly? If you answered "yes" why do you think that is? Do you believe everything you see on television, read in the media or hear from someone else? We live in a world of "gossip" and even though at least one person will always know the "truth" often we never hear what the actual truth is. Or, we may pass our judgement based on the facts that are presented without having empathy or consideration for the fact that we are humans - we all make mistakes. But because we are humans, we have the ability to understand, be compassionate and learn and grow from experiences.
In today's podcast I reflect on the troubles that famous Australian Fitness Trainer, Michelle Bridges is currently experiencing and reflect on not passing our judgement too quickly on her.
The impact of this latest outbreak of coronavirus is incredible when you think globally. Today I discuss the impact on our local economy & Apple
How often do you think “oh yeah I should do something about that” but never get to it? Today is the day! Get it done. Don’t put it off any longer!
It’s Monday morning & time to check in with self-accountability. It’s time to assess your progress so far this year & raise your standards
In late 2019 I had the pleasure of meeting Grandmaster Chess Champion, Garry Kasparov - still considered to be the greatest chess player of all time. From all the amazing celebrities, billionaires and successful business owners I've met I would have to say that Garry has been one of the most compelling and interesting. His views on life, success, focus and coaching are compelling. Listen in to my discussion.
What if you had just awoken from a coma and you had lost your memory, but you were told that you were a navy seal and they needed you back. Do you think that would automatically provide you with a different mindset than if they told you that they needed you back at the local supermarket to serve customers? Think about the continuous and constant practice that goes into being a navy seal, being ready to be called up in a moments notice, travel to any location in the world and place your life in danger - anything from deep diving, disarming a nuclear device to a deadly fire fight. They need to be able to do it with confidence. How do they do that? Practice, practice, practice and practice. Where are the opportunities in your life to adopt a practice mentality of a navy seal?
One of my favourite days of the year is Valentines Day because it’s the international day of love - showing love, being loving, being passionate & celebrating relationships. Of course let’s not forget about making love!!!
I feel so grateful to be able to work with our beautiful new mums. They give so much & give up their bodies to keep the human race growing. Today I talk about the role I play to help them become the healthiest, strongest & mentally focused versions of themselves.
Today I had the pleasure of meeting the creator of the Quest bars & well known YouTube sensation of Impact Theory, Tom Bilyeu.
Over the past 7 years I’ve dedicated my life to growing every day. Today I discuss how, what & why I do this. It’s a beautiful gift to yourself.
74 hours so far this week working on my business and coaching clients. Mentally fatigued at 8pm Friday night. Contemplating doing nothing versus getting changed, prepared and drive to the gym to do a 90 min workout. What would you do?
Despite the hectinc nature of my week I've been able to main focus and direction in what is important to me in relation to my health and fitness. Where I could have easily made excuses and not taken the action, I stepped up to ensure I stayed on the path to successs. Join me in the conversation as I breakdown my challenges this week and what were the keys to my success.
Often one of the most overlooked aspects of our health is what goes on in our head. Yet Beyond Blue, one of Australia's foundations focusing on improved mental health, estimates that as many as 45% of people may suffer from some form of mental health issue in their lfietime. The World Health Organisation estimates that there are 264 million people impacted by mental illness globally. Today is discuss the role that physical exercise and great nutrition has in optimising your mental health.
We all live our lives in a way that we have been conditioned to live. We've learnt those skills over time by observing others, reading and listening to what others do and determining whether we want to "try" those things for ourselves. If we like something, we usually adopt it into our lifestyle, just like watching a good TV series, if we don't , we bin it and move on. When I first start working with people, particularly their nutrition, I tell them that "they don't know what they don't know." Meaning, if you don't know that you should be eating 6+ meals per day, how much to eat, when, how much protein, what type of protein, how many vegetables, etc and the reasons why we do that, how are you ever going to get a different outcome? Short answer is you either won't, you keep dieting or you'll find an authority Coach that can get those sustainable results over and over again. Listen in...
Would you say to your child words like; "you're so fat", "you're ugly", "I hate you", "you disgust me", "I'm sick and tired of you"? I'm sure you would say ABSOLUTELY NOT! Yet these are some examples of the exact words I've heard people tell me in the last 48 hours about how they feel about themselves. We can be so incredibly harsh on ourselves and today I discuss how to use those words as fuel to move you forward rather than immobilise you.
Many people I work with find themselves so tangled in their past failures that they use it as a way to define their future - "I haven't been successful in losing weight so far, so I guess I'll always be destined to be this way." It's such a common trend. Today I discuss how important it is to not let not past define your future. Today is a new day with new opportunities and a new way of looking at solutions.
Our health and fitness mindest is like a virtual freeway. You know where you want to go, you're moving in the right direction, you're focused. But the thing about freeways is that there are off ramps. These off ramps can distract us and slow us down. How often, and how many, off ramps are you taking on your health and fitness journey?
We all get frustrated. Some things tick some people off more than others. Right now I've been feeling frustrated with my lack of productivity and accomplishment and explore that in detail today and identify the solutions to turn things around.
One of the biggest challenges people face is with food. Over eating in general, under eating, poorer food choices and just not knowing what to do and when to do it. When you can understand the connection between your mind and your stomach, that's where your world starts to change. Today I discuss how to use this connection to your advantage.
We all have them, but it's how we deals with them that really defines who we are. Today I reflect on the aspects of success and chellenge that face me.
Yesterday I had the great fortune of being able to watch (on TV) some of the game played by Roger Federer at the Australian Open in my hometown of Melbourne, Australia. The match was incredibly compelling, not because of the skill of both players, but because of the incredible mindset strength of Roger. He went from multiple points to lose the match, taking it to 5 sets and winning in the 5th. So inspiring.
Today saw the passing of one of the greatest basketballers of all time, Kobe Bryant, who was tradgically killed in a helicopter accident with his daughter and 7 other passengers close to his home. It's times like these that we often reflect on what we have done in our life to this point and what plans we have for the future. My question to you is this - are YOU doing enough to live the life you want and deserve?
It may sound far fetched and raise all kinds of questions. But remember when the concept of genetically modified foods hit mainstream media decades ago. There was uproar, but look where they are now. You're probably eating them right now without even realising it.
There are a number of issues with conventional meat production methods and there are estimates that our demand for meat will double globally in the next 30 years. The benefits of producing meat in labs, otherwise known as cell-based meats, is that it creates enormous potential to improve the environmental impact of animal production on the globe, have a very positive impact on animal welfare and also food safety.
The concerns that it may raise are the unknown factors; it's not natural, what if something goes wrong in production, what are the long-term impacts, how thorough will the regulation of this industry be, etc.
What seriously got my attention was who's investing in the work in this area. Two of the most innovative and forward thinking on the planet - Bill Gates and Sir Richard Branson who are part of a team who just invested $161 million in Memphis Meats who are at the forefront of progressing the technology in this area.
Watch this space because it could be on our supermarket shelves before you know it.
What do you think? Would you eat it? Let me know your thoughts......
We all want a sexier version of ourselves and I'm no exception! As we move more deeply into 2020 I talk about what has held me back in the past and exactly what I need to do to create the sexiest version of me yet! No excuses. Just doing it! OMG, what an exciting journey life provides us.
This is a condition that I like to refer to as Shiny Object Syndrome (SOS). Are you the type of person that is always off chasing that "new" diet fad, trend hoping that this new "Shiny Object" will be EVERYTHING you've been looing for? Perhaps there are other areas of your life where you do this too; your career, your relationships, the latest gadget, the trendiest supplement, etc. Today I explore some strategies to break through SOS.
Are you going through your life with a clear plan as to exactly what it is you want and when? Or are you like most, getting through each day hoping you can make it to the weekend, so that you can unwind and do something fun? I guarantee you if you're the latter, you won't have a solid plan in place for your health and fitness. If you want to make a permanent change to your life, including your health and fitness, you must listen to me.
An interesting question. I'm watching the Australian Tennis Open at the moment and I see incredible athletes still performing at the highest level after 10, 15 and 20 years. They don't need the money, they're already wealthy. Yes they're highly skilled, but are there other more highly skilled players out there that could beat them, they're just not as pasionate? Listen in for my perspective....
I had an experience at Ikea today where I witnessed a staff member that really wasn't "showing up" for his customers. He had a great opportunity to make EVERY customer's day through the service he provided, but instead he CHOSE a different outcome - perhaps the easiest one - just going through the motions. It got me thinking about how most people tend to show up for themselves. How are you showing up each day when it comes to your own health and fitness, your career, your relationships, financially, your family and emotionally?
Have you ever worked in an organisation where you said to yourself, "I love the culture of this place"? Perhaps you've said the opposite? This raises the question; what type of culture do you enjoy and thrive in? If you were running an organisation, a small business, a team of people, what culture would you like to lead with? Now ask yourself this question; what is the culture that you lead yourself with? If you were an organisation, have you created an unbelievably thriving, innovative and inspiring culture within and around yourself that people would be breaking down your doors to be working there? It's time to see how you check in and see how you can create a better culture for your health and fitness.
Humans are interesting creatures. In some ways we like to be unique and stand out, but in many ways we want to blend in and belong to a community of people who are just like us. We can see this on social media where people use filters and display the BEST versions of themselves - often there's a "fakeness" about it just to get "likes" and massage an ego. My challenge to you is to be courageous and different in how you live and manage your life to success. Let's face it, most people just want to survive, I want YOU to thrive!!
Over the past two years I've identified 4 weaknesses that have hampered my success in achieving my health and fitness goals. Today I reflect on what those weaknesses were and how I have identified clear strategies to now make them strengths in my arsenal to success. What's interesting is, as focused as I am and have been, for the past 31 years, I realised I'd been playing too small for probably 10 years+. What's exciting is I've never been more focused. Listen in to hear how you can use these same strategies to unleash the beast within!
The image we hold of ourselves can be empowering or disempowering. For many years the image I held for myself was very destructive. I hated my body and who I was from the age of 12. But through the pain I decided to change everything. Listen in today to hear how I changed my focus and how I now help people discover the sexier version of themselves.
The biggest challenge most people face when it comes to improving their health and losing weight revolves around food! Not knowing what to eat, when to eat, how much to eat, not having a sustainable meal plan, not knowing how to create an environment of success and being overwhelmed by the concept of preparing your food in advance of you eating it. Today I share with you the various approaches I've tried over the past 31 years to identify the most effective way to guarantee consistency and sustainability with your meal preparation. Key principles that will set you up for success. Listen to my strategies and why they work.
You've got some big goals that you've set for yourself. You feel excited, inspired and motivated right now to work towards achieving them. You haven't done it before, but you've got some belief that you CAN achieve them. But how long will it take? You're not sure. Is there a faster way to achieve your success? You're not sure. Can anyone help me? Who is the right person / people to help me? How do I get started? Today I share with you the FASTEST way to get you to your goals with absolute certainty.
Statistics show us that 92% of people will fail when it comes to setting goals at this time of the year. BUT.... even though I believe you should be going through this process all year round, it's a great excuse to check in , refresh and create some new ones. Today I show you how you can go through this process and become one of the 8%.
Most people understand the benefits of compounding when it comes to money and investments - small amounts invested wisely will grow and grow reaping much bigger rewards in the future. The same is true for your health, mindset and fitness. Today I explore this concept in detail to show you how small decisions (good or poor) will give you huge outcomes in the future. The trouble is, most people are making small poor decisions daily.
We've all heard the saying "how do you eat an elephant? One mouthful at a time!" A significant weight loss or health transformation journey can often seem like the "elephant". We create so many fears, doubts and uncertainties about what we can and can't do and can quickly make the concept of success unachievable. We can become immobilised by the fear of past failures and the possibilities of future ones. This is a big reason why many people won't even get started. Today I share with you how everyone CAN eat that elephant!
We are 11 days into the New Year and I wanted YOU today to act. How are you tracking your success? Do you even know how to do that? Follow my checklist here and notice how you dramatically impact your energy, focus and results. Each action is connected to the next. Small step changes, and action, implemented daily will take you from mediocre to outstanding over 90 days. All that stopping you is YOU!
Today I went on a hike with my two daughters to a local mountain that was completely ravaged by bushfire 12 mths ago. The park has recently been opened and we were reflecting upon how the forest is regenerating, the wildlife is growing, birds are chirping, all amidst the smoke haze from the current fires a few hundred kilometres away. It shows that despite devastation, greatness can once again be reborn.
What if someone followed you around with a film crew for a month and recorded EVERY single moment of the day documenting what you do with your time? What if they then took all that data and analysed it to see what are your goals, where are you spending your time, what activities are you doing, are you taking care of every aspect of your life and do your actions support the goals you aspire to achieve?
If you stopped to think about that for a moment right now... do you think you're getting the most out of yourself?
Have you ever caught yourself saying "I don't have TIME"? Today I talk about being "fluid" and speed of implementation when it comes to recognising snippets of time and taking advantage of them. This can completely change your outcomes for the day.
I always knew that if I wanted to get from where I am to where I wanted to be that I couldn't do it on my own. The fastest way to success is getting coaching from someone who has successfully achieved what you want to over and over and over again. My Coach JT Foxx says that I should spend 70% of my time in building business relationships with people. I have to tell you that I always knew effective relationships were important, but never imagined having to spend that much time building them. But when your Coach tells you to do something, you do it and it's only now as I creep my number closer to 70% that I am seeing the powerful results that come from it. Take a listen to my conversation.
With bushfires ravaging out of control these past weeks, you can't help but reflect on what loss of life, both human and animal, destruction of the environment and assets means to those affected and those living in and around these areas. Today I reflect on the power of giving beyond yourself and the ways in which you can do this to touch the lives of those in need.
At some stage I'm sure everyone has felt the effects of that horrible bloated feeling in their stomach. Today I tell you how to avoid and eliminate it!
I pride myself in growing every day and fine-tuning my skills to become a high performer. Every day I evaluate what I've done for the day, what were the outcomes and how could I have improved. Yesterday wasn't a great day in terms of achieving the outcomes I wanted to. Listen to why that was, what I've learnt and how I can make today better.
I think procrastination and lack of action are what hold people back from achieving what they REALLY want for their health, fitness, mindset and body. This has been one of the areas of my life which I considered my greatest weakness, but I've been able to condition myself throughout 2019 to now become a strength. Imagine where your health and fitness could be this time next year if you implemented empowering changes faster than you do right now. Not taking months, weeks, days or even hours to make those decisions, but instead just seconds. Less thinking about it, more doing!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Of course this is the time of the year when people start to make those New Year's resolutions. Unfortunately by February, they're forgotten by most and keep being put into that "tomorrow" to do basket. I hope that YOUR health and fitness improvement isn't starting today. Why? Because by now you should have a whole bunch of momentum which has catapulted you into 2020.
BUT.... if this is the start of something new for you then welcome and congratulations. Today I want you to change just one thing!
As we near the end of one decade and commence a new one, I am incredibly excited about what lays ahead for 2020 for me personally. I've never been in a more focused time of my life than right now; my personal health, inner body, physical look of my body, functional strength, the growth of my business, the results of my clients, new business relationships, new opportunities, exciting events I'm attending in this next year, the people I'm meeting and doing business with, the growth of my children, the increase in my philanthropy work - it's amazing how much momentum this year is carrying me into the next.
Some people ask me why I get up at 4.20am every morning and why I work so hard. This is why!
I've also been asked a number times over the past 10 days what is my one word representing 2020 - unstoppable!
Let's make 2020 your best year ever! Have a happy, healthy and safe New Years Eve celebration.
If you see a piece of rubbish on the ground do you pick it up and put it in the bin? What you walk by is a standard you are willing to accept in your life. What self-talk do you particpate in that denegrates, limits and immobilises you? To me this negative self talk is like the rubbish you leave around the bin without putting it in it. Perhaps it's time for you to step up for yourself, deal with negativity and inactivity you keep in your own head and deal with it now. Reduce procrastination. Increase action! Results will come!
Did you know that a honey bee visits 50 to 100 flowers per trip to take nectar and pollen back to the hive. Incredibly hard working to produce a result - honey. How does your work ethic stack up? You may not be the tallest, strongest, smartest, creative or sexy person in the room, but you can ALWAYS be the hardest working. When you look at some of the most successful people in the world, they weren't necessarily the smartest, but all of them worked damn hard to get to where they are. Today I reflect on my last 3 months, my work ethic, the results it's been reaping and how you can relate this to your own personal health and fitness journey.
With the New Year of 2020 fast approaching, it's time to start strategising and pushing yourself to define new standards for yourself. It's very easy to become complacent with who we are and where we are in life, but let's try something different. Raise your standards to achieve a greater level of success in EVERY area of your life, but particularly your health and fitness.
The reality of life is that things don't always go as you expect them to. Despite best laid plans we need to be adaptable to change. These past two days have presented me with some challenges impacting my health and fitness goals over this Christmas period. It's not the challenges that are the issue, it's how we respond to those challenges that truly define who we are.
Merry Christmas!! Such a special day around the world for those that celebrate this time of the year. Today I coached those dedicated clients wishing to train at dawn on Christmas Day - absolutely made my day. Apart from the special time I'm spending with my family, let me tell you why it was so special this morning.
It's Christmas Eve and this next 24 hours can be very beautiful and a wonderful family experience. But, at the same time it can also be incredibly stressful and an anxious time for many. Today I discuss strategies to help you dramatically reduce your stress and anxiety levels and love the day for what it is
With Christmas only 2 days away I know how crazy people's schedules are getting, or about to become. These can be such beautiful times of the year to reflect, plan, grow and spend time with loved ones sharing the experience of the festive season. They can be also quite stressful, anxious and emotional times for many as well. My challenge to you this holiday season is to make sure you look after your mindset and look for "pockets of opportunity" to take 10 to 15 mins out for yourself - reading a book to grow you, doing a little exercise. As busy as you are, you will thank me when you make the time to give back to yourself.
I am often asked "when is the best time to work out?" Today I address this question and tell you exactly WHEN to workout, both strength and cardio training.
As the end of 2019 draws to a close I want you to start thinking about the year ahead. I want you to pick one area of your life where you want to become phenomenal. It could be your body transformation, weight loss, improving your health and fitness, dramatically improving your financial position, leanring to speak a new language, changing career. Whatever it is for you, I want you to embrace it.
The fastest way to get from where you are to where you want to be is to find a Coach who has achieved the exact results you're looking for, learn what they do, implement it to the letter and you'll get the same results. I want you to claim 2020 as your year to become phenomenal!!
What do Winston Churchill and Donald Trump have in common? Completely different leadership styles at different times in history achieving change, yet Winston Churchill was not re-elected after the 2nd World War ended and yesterday Donald Trump was impeached as President of the United States. Today I focus, not on the politics or whether or not you like the individual, but rather the concept of leadership and decision-making.
Daily we are surrounded with thousands of marketing messages and temptations that can distract us from our health and fitness goals. During this festive and holiday season it can seem like many more of these temptations are within arms reach; the type of food, sweet Christmassy treats, the volume of food, the frequency of food, alcohol, social media, television, family, friends, work colleagues, Santa! Let's face it, it's a busy time of the year.
BUT....
If you want an outcome that you've never achieved before, then you need to start doing things you've never done. Don't start next year, start today. Challenge your temptations.
Have you ever thought about what your life would look like if EVERY SINGLE day you improved just ONE thing about yourself? Chances are you may have thought about improving some things, but what if you dedicated 365 days in the year to identifiying just one thing every day. Today I explore this concept with you to take you high performance outcomes.
Life is precious, delicate and unpredictable. It can change in a blink of an eye. My message to you today is simple. Don't wait. Don't put off what you truly want for your health and fitness. Live with the level of energy and optimised health YOU crave and deserve. Do it NOW!
The single biggest change that I've made to my health and fitness regime over the past 30 years has been introducing weekly cleansing as part of my routine. This involves supported intermittent fasting to provide me with the nutrients I need to nourish my body, but cleansing it at the same time. Today I explain the benefits of cleansing, the challenges and how to make it a part of your lifestyle.
Today is Sunday and I'm taking time out to relax with my daughters and be thankful for the amazing people I have in my life.
As a first for our RobbEvans365 Podcast, today you walk through with my 5am Saturday workout as I complete my final exercise for my intense leg workout. The last exercise I perofrm for my legs is lunges. My legs are already spent, they're hurting, I'm tired. It's the final piece of work I need to do and the work I'm least wanting to do. But guess what - the most painful repetitions are where ALL the gains are to be made. Hear how I talk to myself to push through the pain barrier and connect each repetition to my vision.
If your year was like mine, there are many successes to celebrate. We only see how far we've come when we look back to celebrate the successes of our past year. Today I explore successes of 2019, what are the challenges and how do we keep moving forward to achieve the goals we strive towards.
Do you wind up or wind down for Christmas and the holiday season? If you're like most people, you will probably be winding down. Taking time off. Resting. Enjoying time away from work. There's nothing wrong with that. But today I talk about why I'm winding up and taking things to a new level this Christmas. I'm super excited and 2020 belongs to me!
Continuing from yesterday's discussion - we have identified what you need to STOP doing. Today is an exciting day because we dig deeply into what you need to START doing to become a high performer and high achiever. I must warn you though - DO NOT LISTEN to Day 545 until you've listened to Day 544 and completed the homework assignment I've set for you. Remember, you will not change if you just listen passively. You MUST take action to get from where you are to where you want to be!
As your Weight Loss Coach and Health Strategist, I would say the biggest reason that people give me as to why they "can't" lose the weight is because of time. "I don't have time to exercise." "I don't have time to cook." "I don't have time in the morning to exercise as I need at least 7 hours sleep." "I don't have time to exercise after work because I'm too tired." "I don't have time to exercise at lunch because I don't take a lunch break." I don't have time on the weekend to exercise because I'm just too busy." Sound familiar?
Today is going to be a lot of fun because today we find that time you don't feel you have and you give it back to yourself to focus on what's important in your weight loss journey, body transformation and optimising your health.
As a Weight Loss Coach and Health Strategist, people look to my leadership to change their lives. I believe you can only influence if you live your life in the same way that you lead. For instance, an overweight, out of shape Weight Loss Coach can lose credibility as soon as you meet them. You become sceptical of their "Coaching" because you ask yourself this question; "if they're such a good Coach, why aren't they in better shape themselves?"
Today I reflect on the work my staff and I are doing right now to ensure we set the best example possible and I compare my fitness results to my results in 2010 - very interesting!
How often do you hear "you shouldn't eat carbs" or "I don't eat carbs"? This is a problem. Carbohydrates are an essential component of our macronutrients which we should be consuming daily. People jump on diets looking for some panacea of miracle cure and often restrict, or eliminate, complex carbohydrates. I'm here to tell you that I fundamentally disagree with this approach and today's podacst explodes the myth on carbs.
We can all be immobilised from time to time from the hurt of our past relationships - they could be family, work, friends, online and intimate relationships. Hurt comes in various forms and we can carry harmful thoughts and feelings about the transactional communications and actions that have taken place in the past. However, often we hold onto that hurt, anger, frustration and broken promises. Who does that help? Who does that hurt? How does it immobilise you? We all have relationships that we were once in and are now not. The most painful are usually the intimate ones. Do you have hurt that you need to heal from so that you can create your ultimate weight loss transformation and level of optimised health you deserve?
Today I was asked by one of my clients "how do you get it all done?" My response to that was initially "what do you mean?" Once I understood completely what my client meant I was able to provide my answer. I thought about it for a moment and said "focus." With laser focus you get it all done with precision, drive and absolutely love the process!
On one level or another, we ALL want more - more energy, better body, improved health, reduced fat, more money, better job, improved self-esteem, increased self-confidence, more passion, better spiritual connection, improved relationships, more sex, better sex! You name it, I'm sure you want it. The ONLY way to achieve MORE of anything is to do more. How do you do more? You grow yourself. Listen today as to my strategies for growth.
Where focus goes, energy flows. What are YOU focusing on right now? Are you winding down for the year? Or, are you winding yourself up to finish 2019 with more focus than you've ever had before to take your health and fitness where it has never been? Life comes down to a series of choices. What are you chossing to focus on? Your choices can be the difference between success and failure. Listen today to find out how we keep you on the path to success and high performance
If your schedule is anything like mine over the next 4 to 6 weeks, then I know it's going to be busy for you! But here's the thing, you can be busy for the sake of being busy, or you can be incredibly productive and busy at the same time. Between the crazy Christmas social schedules, commitments with your children's school, friends, concerts, sporting club breakups, work functions, family get togethers, etc, etc we can make it very easy for ourselves to NOT look after ourselves. As your Coach, my job is to inspire you to get more done for your health and wellness in the same time. Use this next 4 to 6 weeks to schedule all the things you MUST get done to focus on YOU and improving YOU, as well as getting all of those other things done. No excuses, you can do it!
That post workout pain you feel through your muscles is called Delayed Onset of Muscle Soreness (DOMS). Today I discuss the approach I take to managing the physical pain, but also reflect on how some people just don’t like to push into that lactic acid burning pain during a workout. Let’s face it, pain is painful! But how often do we back away from emotional pain when we should push into it. Perhaps the way your body is showing up is also a reflection upon how you’re dealing with your emotional pain.
We often set a ceiling, a limit, on what it is that we can achieve when it comes to our weight loss. We tend to think in round numbers and maybe for you it’s getting to 100kgs, 90kgs, 60kgs. Whatever your number, you’re either struggling to get there because of the ceiling limitations you set for yourself, or you’ve crashed through that ceiling to greatness. Where’s your ceiling right now?
We live in an age where there is so much information regarding weight loss, health and fitness, yet globally we are regressing. Global trends of overweight and obesity continue to climb. Why is that? We know better. We know we should exercise more and eat more wisely. Don’t we?
We don't know what we don't know. Even with the world's-best meal plans and training programs I develop for people around the world, they are all rendered completely useless unless we do this one thing - connect to OUR purpose.
I’m back home LA, just stepped off the plane, and discussing how to keep the momentum of an amazing week going. How do we ensure that we are not like most people and progress with our planned actions, rather than be immobilised by the tiredness of lack of sleep and jet lag? Speed of implementation is something my Coach JT has taught me. There’s no time to stop now!
The final day of my Los Angeles conference with over 2,500 of the best businesses & entrepreneurs in the world from over 87 countries.
I'm reflecting on the unbelievable gifts that this event has provided.
This is the ONLY event in the world that also brings 30+ celebrities altogether in one place. Success leaves clues & every single celebrity this week had all these success strategies - from Vince Vaughn, Dolph Lundgren, Moira Forbes, Hugh Hilton, George Ross, Vanilla Ice, Dr Phil to Jillian Michaels. Vastly different professions but all incredibly successful.
There are the 7 keys to massive success that ALL 30+ celebrities use.
Being here in Los Angeles listening to some of the most successful people in the world, one thing is clear - success is possible for everyone and failure will come to all of us that are striving for something great. If you're not failing, then you're not trying hard enough. What's amazing about failure though is the opportunities that arise from it. Pain. Within that pain comes growth - if you choose to find the good in it. You've got to keep pushing yourself until you get what you want. Whatever it takes!
We are all searching for something bigger, brighter and better than what we have right now in at least one area of your life. Eliminating unwanted fat from your body, increasing muscle, reducing pain, increasing functional strength, a more inspiring job, more money, more love, better relationship with your kids, a new family (only joking)! I've got some good news and bad news for you. The good news is that it's ready and waiting for you. The bad news is, there's no easy road to get there!
When we tidy up the kitchen bench, pull out the weeds in the garden or cut the grass with the lawnmower we have a specific purpose in mind - to make a difference. These can be easily identifiable tasks that you need to complete on a regular basis or you will find that the weeds will over grow in your garden, your lawn will look terrible and your kitchen will just look messy. For most people, conditioning themselves to "just do" these tasks, is a no brainer. However, these "weeds" that exist within ourselves are often left to "grow" and can prevent us from making the real difference that we know we deserve and desire. The first step in making the difference is to simply DECIDE.
A spectacular day at Mega Success with three huge celebrities. Dr Phil - who needs no introduction! Over almost two hours, he was amazingly insightful. I could listen to him all day. Omorosa from the Apprentice, former political aide to President Donald Trump and writer also appeared for some fantastic interaction with my Coach, JT Foxx. Last for the day was Actor, Vince Vaughan. So exciting to meet Vince as I love two of his movies; Dodgeball and The Internship.
I love how down to earth each of these celebrities are - just like you and me, it's just that they do extraordinary things. One thing resonates over the past two days - everyone, even celebrities, have insecurities and they all have a burning desire to improve everyday, be resilient and make a difference in this world through hard work.
Wow! What an incredible day at Mega Success Los Angeles yesterday! We listened to such amazing celebrities including two Olympic gold medalists Steven Bradbury, Bruny Surin, Stedman Graham, Gabrielle Macht (aka Harvey Specter), the world’s best chess player Gary Kasparov and top model Kimora Lees Simmons. Incredible to meet all of them and listen to their powerful stories of success and life, and business, lessons.
Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the bonus day of JT Foxx's Mega Success in Los Angeles. The focus today came from two incredible businessmen, Jay Abraham, recognised as one of the greatest marketing minds in the world, and Hugh Hilton from the Hilton family who is one of the most humble, innovative, curious and creative solution finder in restructuring businesses taking them from crisis to success. One of the key takaway's from Hugh was that life is short and you need to make sure that you have fun in finding and living your life's purpose.
Operating on over 31 hours of only 3 hours sleep, today I consider what is possible when you're tired and all you want to do is sleep, but know that the opportunity to meet just one person at an international networking event, that can completely change your life, is far more powerful than sleep. On this day 12 months ago, my life changed under similar circumstances. It's easy to sleep and harder to push through, network, concentrate and be passionate and hungry for helping others, but what if the best thing to ever happen in your life and professional career was about to take place while you were sleeping? Would you make a different decision?
Having just landed in Los Angeles for a week of work, I reflect on my plan prior to getting on the plane, the plan for on the plane and then my plane once I leave the plane and get to my final destination. It works like a charm to help me get over jet-lag faster.
As I'm about to jump on a 15 hour flight to Los Angeles to have the most incredible week of growth, influence, networking and opportunity to meet 30 celebrities, I reflect on last year and how exciting this next week will be. OMG, I wish I could bring all of you with me.
It's very easy to do what is easy in our life. It can be challenging, confronting and require courage to do what is hard. One thing I know for sure is that making yourself uncomfortable is not easy or desirable. But I also know, doing what is right, even though it's hard, is what you're meant to be doing. That's how you grow. That's how you create a higher level of performance.
How many times have you STARTED a weight loss journey to have it only last a few weeks or months? Before you know it you're back to where you started or, more commonly, in a "heavier" position than when you began. Sound familiar? My role as a Weight Loss Coach and Health Strategist is to provide people with workable, tailored solutions that can be embedded into their lifestyles, so that they can STOP starting!
The human spirit and resilience is so powerful, yet we often don't test our own personal limits. Today I share with you how I push and test myself to become a higher performer. If I can do it, so can you. You never know what you're truly capable until you try!
Wow! What a day yesterday meeting the creator of one of the most recognisable brands on the planet - Virgin and Sir Richard Branson. Many people don't know that Sir Richard suffers from Dyslexia, a reading disorder, yet has risen to one of the world's most influential, passionate and richest people in the world.
What I loved about listening to Sir Richard yesterday was how powerful it has ben for him to have vision, purpose and passion. But, Sir Richard is also an adventurer and loves to push the boundaries in having fun. You have to be playful as you go through life so that you enjoy the journey. I share a hilarious story Sir Richard shared with us yesterday. Very funny!
Sometimes opportunities only come once in a lifetime and today I had that pleasure of having a front row seat to listen to Sir Richard Branson and later meet him in person. An incredible man with a great sense of humour and amazing amount of success. Today I debrief the experience with two new friends I met at the event, Michelle and Nimah.
When you are faced with two options, do you make your selection based on price or value? You will always find someone who will compete on price and give you a cheaper deal, but does that really give you the VALUE you're truly wanting? Yesterday I was contacted by someone that had no interest in the value they would be receiving and was only interested in the cheapest possible price. How do you make your decisions?
Every day we can get thrown a "curve ball" which causes us to have to react and respond. How we respond ultimately determines the outcome we receive. When it comes to weight loss, health and body transformation, their are constant distractions that can easily nudge us off our path to success, but how we respond is what defines who we really are.
In talking to my eldest daughter about doing something she really doesn't want to do, but as a parent, knowing it will be in her long-term interest, it got me thinking about the incredible life lessons that exist in a school excursion. In your journey to lose weight, transform your body and optimise your health, there are always questions you ask yourself. Why can't I do this? Why do I keep failing? I've never done it before, so why is this time any different? Why is this so hard for me? BUT... if you put yourself in a position of the alternate argument, you find your perspective can change dramatically. Write down all the reasons why you CAN do this, why you WILL NOT fail, why THIS time is different and why this time witll be EASY for you. Here's the trick - push yourself to come up with the alternate arguments no matter how passionately you currently feel about the downside. I can't think of any positives is NOT true. What's always wrong is always available to you. But so is what is right - you just have to be prepared to find it.
Right now I am super excited about Mega Success, the greatest event I've attended in the world, which is just 9 days away from my arrival in LA. BUT, there are many reasons why I shouldn't go, why it may make me feel uncomfortable and it would be far easier to stay at home or have a relaxing break when I'm in LA instead. Listen today to find out the reasons why I decided I needed to step up.
What do the values of loyalty and integrity mean to you? How is this relevant to your weight loss and body transformation? Our mindests are complex. In Day 510 I discussed what was required to "Get your head right". If we don't get it right, then we have these fears and immobilising thoughts interrupting what it is we want for our health and wellness. Today I discuss how focusing on loyalty and integrity can free you and mobilise you towards greatness. Sometimes it's the things that you think are least likely to make a difference are most impactful.
We spend so much time and money accumulating material possesions and consuming resources yet we often fail to consider the importance of investing in ourselves. We, our bodies, our minds, are the greatest assets we have. We can spend hours and hours working on the outside, but how much work are you putting in on the inside - growing your mind. Scientist have shown that we only use 10% of our brain - that's 90% unused capacity! What a waste. Today we talk about the importance of investing in growing because if you're not growing....you're dying. Let's talk strategy.
Have you ever been stuck in a rut about your weight loss, health or body transformation? Stuck in a place where you feel like you're just not making any progress. Perhaps it feels like two steps forwards and three back? We all have fears and limiting beliefs that can immobilise us from time to time. The question is, how long have you been stuck and do you know how to get yourself "unstuck". Today I give you strategies to break through your fears and stride confidently into the unknown.
If you're wanting to optimise your health, lose weight and achieve a body transformation that meets your goals, chances are you want what most people don't have. How do I know that? Because 67% of Aussies are either overweight or obese. If you want a better outcome than this for your health, then you have to do it differently to the way that the majority of people are. Sometimes that may look overwhelming to you, because you've never been able to achieve the result you want before, but when you get the right coaching and surround yourself with the right people, you create the belief that you can achieve what you previously thought was unobtainable. Do the things that others won't and you'll get the results that you want!
People often ask me how I've been able to maintain my lifestyle and training regime for so long. The answer is easy. I find what I love to do and keep tweaking and perfecting it. But the reality is, I haven't always "loved" what I've been doing for my own health and fitness. Today I discuss what my biggest challenges have been in the past and how I overcame them to turn "hates" into daily habits that I can't wait to start.
Sometimes it's great to mix up the exercise we do because going to the gym to do a workout or participating in a class may not always "do it" for you. Today I'm doing a different some things with my kids and having a whole bunch of fun in the process....but it's not what you would call a traditional workout. I'm teaching them so many life-lessons in the process and we are connecting on a level that is away from the day to day hustle. Gardening has been a great love of mine since I was a child and sharing that experience with my children and nurturing our own vegetables is very special. Heaps of fun too!
Have you ever justified to yourself why you are getting the outcome you're getting because of your pride or ego? I have. Today I discuss how I've used disempowering reasons of the past to justify why my outcomes were where they were, even though I wanted something much greater. I also talk specifically about the strategies I've used to focus on results and empowering reasons to drive those outcomes. Powerful!
We are about to commence a long-weekend here in Melbourne because of the Melbourne Cup horse race next Tuesday. Many take the opportunity to take a couple of days annual leave to make it a great weekend. As your Coach, my job is to help you achieve a higher level of performance. No matter where you are right now, moving you to that "next" level up. Only you know how you spend your holidays. My challenge to you is to use your holidays to reflect on successes, challenges and focus on how you can improve your health, fitness, body and mindset. Before you know it, Christmas and the New Year period will be here, so let's map out your next 90 day action plan to next level health and wellness.
Success leaves clues. The fastest way to success is to find a Coach who has gotten, or is getting, the results that you want. You learn their blueprint to success, copy it and take massive action to replicate the results. Today I discuss the challenges I'm currently facing in the growth of my business in replicating success and how you can emulate what I'm experience to achieve the weight loss and body transformation results you crave.
Take a look at the 5 people in your life that you spend most of your time with. Are these people inspiring you? Driving you? Displaying the behaviours you want to emulate? Are they doing what you want to do? Are they getting the results that you want to have? Are they living the life you want to live? Are the type of person that you want to be? When you look at the 5 people you spend most time with, history shows us that you will most likely "turn out" like them - they can involve you either raising, or lowering, your standards to meet their expectations. Who are your 5 and how do you measure up?
I hear excuses every day as to why people "can't" exercise right now. Too hot, too cold, too dark, too wet, too dry, too tired, too busy, too early, too late, can't afford it, not sure the best time to train, too expensive, too crowded, not enough people, too lazy, not motivated, not inspired, feeling sick, partner is sick, kids are sick, someone you know is sick!!! I've heard it all. Are you using any of these? Today I share with you EXACTLY the right time of the day and year to exercise.
Interesting question. I'm not talking about the hard rubbish trash. I'm talking about the rubbish you keep carrying around with you - head trash. Our value and belief systems start being developed from early childhood and many of those stay with us forever. Often these develop into disempowering limiting beliefs that immobilise us towards what we desire and what we deserve in relation to our weight loss and body transformation journey. Let's make your life lighter. It's time to take out the trash!
The life of a bear is so incredibly harsh. They spend many months of the year preparing for Winter. Their objective during Winter is to just survive. They then spend many months recovering from Winter before doing it all over again. Their mission - do it or die. Just how resilient are YOU really?
This is such a powerful question that most people would answer "YES" to automatically. BUT.... are you really? Today I reflect on my experience about what a coachable versus as uncoachable person looks like when it comes to weight loss, health optimisation or body transformation. Which category will you fall into?
We all have them - bad days. Life throws challenges at us is ways we often don't expect and we're not always sure how to respond. The key is to accept that they will come and the art is to know how to get through them as fast as possible. Learn from the challenges. Find the good in the bad. Move on. Today I share how I snap myself out of a bad day.
We have one shot at life. One body. Once chance to live the life that we desire, on our own terms. There are no second chances. We're not living in a movie. We can't "take two"! Today is the day you can decide to step up and live life differently. No longer wish it. Create it. The choice is yours.
Don’t get caught up in how hard you perceive your weight loss, or body transformation, journey is going to be. Upon reflection, it’s never as hard as you first thought. What is incredible news for you is this; once you get to where you want to be, maintaining it is super simple. Take a listen…
Do you remember the very first workout you ever did? I do and I share that experience with you today from February 1988 to 6,488 workouts later to what has shaped my body and health, but transformed me into the person, and Weight Loss Coach, that I am today. If you’ve never done a strength workout before, your life is about to change….
We all have the same 24 hours, yet some people achieve amazing body transformation and weight loss results in the same 24 hours where others flounder and even go backwards. Why is that? A key element is accountability. We don’t make ourselves accountable as much as we should. Today I outline the key principles to keep yourself accountable and move you from where you are to where you want to be.
One of the biggest shifts I've made in the personal management of my time and the productive outcomes I achieve from day to day, week to week, month to month and year to year are based around the principles I will teach you today. They're golden! Take a look inside...
We all have "stories" that we tell ourselves based on our value and belief system. When it comes to our health and ftiness, those stories often immobilise us because they are not truthful. You can create a perception for yourself that you're doing ok, great or outstanding, but the reality is, if someone else external to you examined your behaviour and results, they would say.... "STOP LYING TO YOURSELF", you're doing a poor job and it's time to shake yourself up to get much better weight loss and health outcomes.
When it comes to weight loss, the majority of people have a screwed up metabolism - running too slowly and having a negative impact on their ability to lose fat. The great news is that you CAN reprogram your metabolism with some very simple strategies that you can work into daily life. Find out what they are.....
The power to visualise exactly what it is that you want for your health, fitness and body is extraordinary. It drives focus, energy, inspiration, accountability and results. The reverse is also true. If you have the inability to describe what you are hungry for, then you're not hungry enough. You've got to name it to claim it.
After being hospitalised for the past 6 days with a serious e-coli infection mysteriously developed post hernia surgery, I’m back home & reflecting on the challenges of this past week. Focus on your health constantly and never take it for granted. I’m only out of hospital after 6 days because I’m as fit, strong and healthy as I am. It’s never too late to start.
How often do you alter you activity level from day to day? My guess is that it goes up and down pretty regularly, but your food intake stays unchanged or goes up. This is a major problem contributing to our overweight and obesity issues. Today we talk about the implications of not matching your activity levels to your food intake and how to achieve a higher level of health consistently.
It's scary how close Christmas is and how quickly these last 78 days of the year will fly by. With that in mind, are you staying focused on your weight loss goals? We are surrounded by distraction and it's very easy to put your health and fitness on the back-burner until the New Year. Don't let that be you. Higher performance outcomes requires consistent, focused action.
Today history was made with the world record of a marathon being completed in under 2 hours. Just like many believed in the 1950's that breaking a 4 minute mile was not humanly possible, many thought the same thing about running 42.2kms in under 120 minutes. Putting that into perspective, it's running, on average, 100m in 17 seconds and maintaining that for the length of the marathon. Congratulations Kenyan runner Eliud Kipchoge breaking the record today with 20 seconds to spare! The human body is incredible, what potential have you not yet unlocked?
Do you know why we say this? Because you may not like what you get when you get it! What if you choose the wrong "goal" to aim for and you achieve it, only to be disappointed in the fact that the goal you had selected wasn't exactly what you wanted after all. What you really wanted may have been within in easy reach, you just weren't looking...and let it slip through your fingers. This is why identifying this ONE key is crucial to your success.
You can't control everything that happens in your life, but you can always control what things mean to you. In the face of being in hospital, I reflect on what my experience means to me and what I am going to do with it.
I've had to return to hospital this afternoon after going down hill quite quickly these past 36 hours.
How many of you measure your weight loss progress by referring to the number on the scales? If it goes down you're making progress, if it goes up you're failing... sound familiar? Progress comes in many different forms and it's critical to keep that in mind during the course of your weight loss journey. Today I'm outlining the keys to measuring your long-term success.
The inspiration for today's podcast comes from my youngest daughter who said "I don't want to go back to school." It got me thinking about the tasks in my life that I just don't enjoy doing, or I don't want to do. There are a few things that I simply put off and procrastinate on them. The result in the past has either doing these tasks at the last minute.....OR.....not doing them at all! What are the things that YOU keep putting off in your life? What are the elements of health and fitness that you procrastinate and make excuses over - "I'll do it tomorrow" type attitude? Make today the day when you crush those limiting beliefs.
What is YOUR biggest problem? Today I want you to deep dive into yourself and examine the problems and challenges you face. Perhaps it's time, money or just not knowing what to do or how to get started. I see the biggest problem for most people revolves around food, so today I explore how you can get great outcomes no matter where you are right now.
Have you ever been stuck in a rut? Well, I have, and I'm willing to guess that you have too. Today I'm sharing with you the struggles that I have been going through with my shoulder and hernia surgeries and the strategies that I'm using, but you can also use, to break this rut, stay focused and keep achieving your weight loss transformation goals.
What if you were just given 30 days to live? What if your partner / husband / wife / child was just diagnosed with a terminal illness? Do you think you were live your life exactly the same way tomorrow? Would you take more action? Would you do things now that you've always wanted to do? Or would you continue to live the same way with the same mindset?
Every day we are faced with decisions that need to be made. In determining the action we take with those decisions comes choices. We can decide to act or we can listen to the stories we tell ourselves as to why we should be inactive. Today I help you break free of destructive inaction.
Now be honest with yourself. How often have you said that you will "try" to accomplish that goal you really want to achieve? My guess is that you've said it at least once before in your life. But some people live in the world of "trying" and spend all their time not achieving what they're truly capable of achieving. Today we talk about how to bust free of trying and turn it into commited action.
What if I told you there was a way to create real time in each and every day? Would you want to know what it was? Continuing from yesterday's podcast, today I discuss how I have now created over 2 hours of extra productive time every day. The biggest change in my personal productivity over the past 18 months and has completely changed my life. I share the exact process I used to create more time in my day.
"I just don't have time!" Can you relate to that statement? Not having enough time to do ALL the things we want to is a worldwide epidemic. Everyone seems to be starving for more time in their day. Rushing through the busy schedules we lead today with our work schedules, families, children, homework, after school activities, etc it can be very difficult to find more time and get more done. At least, that's the story we often tell ourselves. Today I share with you the biggest shifts I've made in my life to get at least 16 hours more in my week. What would you do to grow yourself and move your life forward if you injected an additional 16 hours of productivity into your week?
Daily people are searching for a quick fix to their weight loss and health problems. Questions about whether they should start keto or the next "wave" diet or not having time to think about exercise and eating healthy, but wanting a solution "one day" are discussions I have with people EVERY day. Today I lay it all on the table and tell you what you probably don't want to hear.
Do you have a health strategy? Do you even know what I mean? Because I have news for you, if you do not have a very clear health strategy you are always going to spin your wheels and get less than you deserve and less than you desire. Stop doing what you've always done. The time is now to change your approach.
They kicked me out of hospital a day too soon I reckon. Today I talk about my less than caring treatment from a nursing staff member and the focus being more about getting me out of the hospital than being comfortable and pain managed. Incredible amount of pain right now and just trying to get through the days hoping for less pained days ahead. I'm using my time to rest and work on my self with reading.
Today was my hernia operation and I'm feeling pain like I was not expecting or have experienced before. Ouch is about all I have to say about that. But I remain commited to getting you content!
Right now I'm in a funk! Technology failure, inconvenience, pending surgery, upcoming limitations, productivity loss, higher level of achievement within reach but not being achieved. Today I talk about how I go about getting out of this funky state.
Two critical elements to success in your health and fitness, whether that be a transformation, elite sports performance or maintaining a healthy lifestyle are your willingness to commit to what it is that you want and understanding why that's important to you and being consistent EVERY SINGLE DAY. Anything less than this will give you poor results. You must be unrelenting and never, ever stop no matter how hard it gets.
After 5 days in Sydney and returning to a very hectic schedule this week, along with surgery in 3 days time, I reflect on my efficiency, productivity and how to keep driving forward. What would you do if you were me and how do you compare with your work ethic?
We get stuck in a rut and just let life “happen” to us. But what if we lived in a world where WE controlled the outcomes and controlled the way we live? Imagine, living life on your terms and by your design! Newsflash: We all have that opportunity right now it’s just that most don’t step out of the fear and into the unknown to create your ideal life.
Do you find yourself in a day-to-day rut? Living without the passion and excitement in your life that you is possible? The great news is that there's a way to switch this on with your health, fitness and any area of your life where you want to make a difference. It's time to turn it on...
All of us want more in at least one area of our life. When it comes to your health and fitness what is holding you back? What has held you back in the past? What limiting beliefs do you have about what YOU believe is possible for you? Imagine all of this being a bed of hot burning coals that lays between you and what you want. All that is left for you to do is walk over it. Are you prepared to do whatever it takes, no matter what?
We all have access to our pasts, yet how often do we ignore our past or use it to dis-empower us? What's wrong in our life is always available but so is what is right. Past experiences, good and bad, have beautiful gifts in there for us to help us become better people and achieve greater outcomes. The question is, what are you doing?
Vapping was introduced as a product to help people quit smoking or give them a "healthier" version of smoking. But is it working? Are cancer rates dropping? Who approves these products before they're launched to the public? What tests are done on these products before they are released?
This truly is an amazing interview I conducted with Vanessa Jane Patrick recently from Live Love Give and from her own podcast Limitless Potential. Vanessa is an incredible soul doing some fascinating work in helping people discover their genius, authenticity and how to have unlimited potential. Today we explore several great topics including how we can tap into the opportunity we all have to get more out of our health and fitness and live with the body and health we all truly desire.
Isn't it true that every single day we get thrown things at us that we just don't want to take on board? Challenges, obstacles, pains, inconveniences, set backs, injuries. No matter what form they come in, they are usually painful and annoying, but it's what action we take that defines who we really are and what we are made of.
A wrap of my weekend of conferencing and networking on the Gold Coast with an incredible group of business owners and inpsirational leaders. I also had an awesome experience today in having lunch with Olympic Gold Medallist Natalie Cook. Now the challenge is in the speed of implementation. How are you going with your speed of implementation?
Do you live your life in a state of discomfort and deliberately make yourself uncomfortable each day, or does the thought of this make your uncomfortable! If you're always living in the place of "comfort" I refer to that as medicority. You're not pushing and striving to make a difference to yourself and others around you. You're not constantly finding ways to improve yourself. Just like doing the workout that doesn't cause any discomfort. Keep doing that and you get NO results. We want high performance and outstanding results. That means placing ourselves in a state of being uncomfortable.... all the time. Have you got what it takes?
It's always easy to focus on what is "not right" in our busy lives, but what IS right is always available too - if you choose to find it. Today I explore the power of being grateful and how that can completely change your world.
On this national RUOK day I felt it important to discuss how it's important to master the communication we have with one person. Take a listen, very powerful.
Have you ever examined ALL the complexities of the relationships you have in your life? In particular, the relationship YOU have with food? With more than 67% of the Australian population being overweight or obese, clearly many people do not have strong and empowering relationships in the area of food! In Day 454 of my RobbEvans365.com podcast series I dissect disempowering behaviours with food and provide you with some amazing tools to coach you to be focused and unstoppable.
Two weeks after the second surgery on my left shoulder, it was time to have the stiches out and discuss the outcomes of the procedure in more detail. He's very happy with the progress I'm making and so am I. Another 6 weeks of no weights for the left, continuing to rehabilitate and introducing a resistance band in the coming days in conjunction with my daily exercises and physiotherapy weekly. No wanting to jinx my success to full recovery without pain, but I'm feeling so far ahead of where I am now compared to my last surgery. Very encouraging!
A tough topic to consider today. I've dealt with many clients who have been in a position of desparation to change their body and health, but had partners / family / friends / work colleagues who either consciously, or unconsciously, sabotage their attempts to embed healthy habits into their lifestyle. I know it may seem crazy, but it happens.... a lot! It can lead to major issues in your relationship and be a huge source of frustration when they're not on the same page as you. Let's talk about how you deal with it.
We all have regrets in our life through either taking action or not taking action. Caused by fear and limiting beliefs of what is possible for us. The greatest regrets I have in life are from things I didn't do rather than what I have done. Some time ago I made a commitment to myself to never die wondering. Never die thinking "what if". Instead I am living life on my terms. Each day looking to challenge myself further and stay uncomfortable. What are the things in your life that you would regret if you don't get them done?
How often are you JUST showing up in life? How often are you getting to the level that you truly desire in all the areas of life? If you're listening to me right now, then chances are you are not living life on your terms and getting the outcomes you are truly capable. You want more. You're hungry for greater success. Showing up, in my view, is never enough!
Addressing the individual health and fitness goals of people is an exciting challenge that I am faced with daily. Finding ways to coach people through the obstacles they face can be challenging and complex. So how can you take what you do for individuals and apply that to a community and larger population - for instance, my local shire has over 107,000 people in it, with 7 families moving in per week, and we have one of the highest levels of overweight and obesity in the state at 54%. Today I talk about strategies for tackling this challenge.
People who try to bring you down has nothing to do with you, but all to do with them. Yet we can spend a lot of time contemplating what we should do about it. It distracts us from our path. Today I discuss the path I've experienced since I was a young boy through to an incident just this week and how your health and fitness has such an incredible impact in blocking the rubbish and staying focused on what is important to us in growing, contributing, building incredibly powerful and supportive relationships and being the best versions of ourselves.
Wow, the power of detoxifying and cleansing your body!
If you've been following me for the past 10 days you'll know that I underwent surgery Monday last week. Since then my body has been repairing itself very well, but I've been ensuring I'm rehabilitating my shoulder 3 to 4 times per day as well as fuelling myself with the correct nutrition and supplements. Hear the full story here as well as the importance of a 1st impression I made today.
Being 3 days into Spring in Australia, it's heading into peak time for the fitness industry. Whether you've decided to use a Health Coach to help you get results faster or not, today I'm outlining the key steps you can use to set yourself up for success over the next 8 weeks. We all love a challenge, so strap yourself in for the next 8 weeks to a better you!
You may have noticed that for the month of August I was undertaking my own personal health and fitness challenge. You may have been following me via podcast and social media (#followmy31). Today I reflect on the successes, challenges I've faced and what my plans are for September. With only 7 days out from my shoulder surgery and abdominal surgery on the horizon, listen to my strategy for the short and long-term.
Today in Australia it's Father's Day and I thought it was appropriate to reach out to all the fathers and ask them to reflect on how their doing in their jobs as fathers. As a father of two young girls I know how easy it is to get caught up in the "busy-ness" of life and drop the ball in our fatherly duties. Dad's, it's time to raise your standards as fathers and consider what you are doing, what you're not doing, become a better person for your first so that you can be the best version of yourself in raising these beautiful human beings we have the priviledge of fathering. One more thing, don't forget the role that your children's Mum plays in their upbringing. Step up for her. Show her, tell her how you appreciate the role she has in raising and caring for your children. Never take your Mum's kids for granted, she's doing an amazing job. I'm sure you can tell her more often. I'm sure there's scope for you to do better!
Today I give you my top tips for selecting the right Health and Fitness Coach for YOU when you're ready to take your results to a new level.
When it comes to improving health, fitness, nutrition and mindset to achieve change, sometimes it can seem WAAAY to big to even start. Let me share how you can pull apart your transformation journey piece by piece to achieve the results you're searching.
Stop being immobilised by inaction! Use the action I'm taking this week, in spite of my shoulder surgery, as inspiration to snap you out of your funk and into a new way of thinking. Bottom line... ACT!
24 hours after my shoulder surgery and I discuss the impact that I'm feeling of the medication I've taken on my body. Very compelling.
24 hours after surgery and I'm back into the swing of things, partially. But today I want to show you what is possible with focus and energy despite obstacles that are in your way.
On my day of my shoulder surgery I'm asking you to take stock of where you are in your life right now. Are you living your life with purpose and passion? If not, it's time to have courage and step up.
There's so much negativity around today. 85% of people hate their jobs. 67% of Australians are overweight. There are many things in your environment that you can't control, but there's always one thing that you can ALWAYS be in control of and once you identify what that is, life changes. Don't try and be different to the majority. Choose to be different and be proud. Join the top 1%.
I've been asked many times about the supplements I take on a daily basis, on both training and non-training days. So here it is...
One of my greatest idols, Arnold Schwarzenegger is a global phenomenon when it comes to blockbuster action movies. Most people don't know about Arnold's road to success, but he has 5 rules he believes are crucial for success. What do you think?
With only 5 days to go until my shoulder surgery, today I received another health setback that has frustrated me. Find out more....
Today the World Health Organisation is talking about changing nutrition labels of products to include the number of teaspoons of sugar that are in a product. Is this a step on the right direction? Will it help change behaviours?
What are you doing to think big? Health, fitness, career, life experiences? I find that we just don't push ourselves hard enough because we don't create a compelling vision that inspires us to make a difference to ourselves and others. Why? Because it's hard work. My challenge to you is think bigger!
With 8 days to go until my shoulder surgery I'm back in the gym and reflecting why I'm working hard up to that point instead of backing off. I reflect on exercise, nutrition and strength training for my pregnant clients and where they get the best outcomes.
I realised in order to succeed at the highest level, I first needed to accept that it was okay to fail. Sometimes you need to risk it all to get all you want.
After an incredibly exhausting last two weeks, I reflect on how to focus my energy when day-to-day issues can nudge you off the path you wanted to travel. Things don't always go to plan, but when you have a plan, you learn how to quickly adapt to achieve the results you want.
When was the last time you had the courage to stand up to yourself and say you've had enough of the way you've been talking to yourself, the way you've been behaving, the way you've been living and sick and tired of the excuses you've been making? Today is the day you say "I've had enough, it's time to change."
Today I officially discovered I need surgery again on my shoulder and the date is all booked in. After 8 months of daily rehabilitation...I need to start all over again. How we respond to these challenges really defines who we are.
In coaching people on a daily basis I find that ALL want results, but not everyone wants to do what is required to get those results. Instead, they want to keep doing the same things they were doing before and live in "hope" that results will show up because they're "trying" and they know what is best for them. Guess what, this approach results in zero results. My question for you today is are you coachable?
Today is my birthday and I reflect on what I choose to do on this special day to not only celebrate, but to reflect as to whether I'm ahead or behind on my dreams and visions. I also tell you how I celebrated today!
Today I'm talking about trends in healthism and anti-healthism. Perhaps it's time you took a look at who is in your inner circle to see who is supporting you and who is holding you back. With only 1/3 of Australians NOT considered overweight and obese, clearly the majority is not where you want to be. I've noticed a growing habit of people to treat you differently, and criticising, my healthy lifestyle like it is some kind of freakish cult-like behaviour. Take a listen....
During Winter so many people fall into the trap of "Comfort Food" and being sedentary at a time of the year when you could be absolutely thriving! I share with you how you can conquer comfort food cravings by doing just one simple thing.
Today I received some really bad news. A massive set back. But set backs are a part of life and simply delays, not denials. Tomorrow the sun will come up again and we push through with no excuses and never give up, ever!
Each day we make excuses for yourself. So much so that we become conditioned to that way of life. The end result is living a life of mediocrity and NEVER achieving what it is we are truly capable. Why? Stop making excuses and step up to live the life you want for yourself!
We all fall into the habit of making excuses for our health and fitness; time, money, weather, tired, you name it. What's holding you back? What challenges are you facing right now?
On my way back from the airport after two and a half days interstate with intensive coaching I reflect on the health hazards of flying...and they're not what you would think. I reflect on my two days of coaching with JT Foxx and his team and discuss how I provided a huge wow to a client this week.
Huge Monday today with an early morning start, all day coaching and an interstate flight with a cleansing, reset and detoxification day thrown in. Here how it all went.
The power of focus and where you place your energy will determine the outcomes you achieve in your life and for your health and fitness. My journey through Sunday's busy day but still managing to take care of my health.

If you had to live your life, or certain parts of your life again, what would you do differently? Today I consider whether I would have started with the career I'm following now rather than gaining the experience in the Accounting field first before changing and what that would have meant for my future.
In the spirit of Summer bodies being made in Winter, I am committing to my own personal 30 Day Performance Challenge from tomorrow, 1 August. You will be able to follow my journey and either join me or just watch what happens to me...

With all the different types of fats I find that people don't know what's what and where the best sources of fats come from. Along with fats I'm talking about water and the role it plays for our health. Crucial elements to the recipe for optimised health.
With so much media attention about not eating carbs it's no wonder there is confusion about what to eat, how much and when. I hear so many stories of people telling me they don't eat carbs. The more correct conversation to be having is about low versus high energy carbohydrates. What am I talking about? Come and listen to the conversation, it will change your thinking

Yesterday I spoke about 70% of Australian's diets comprise processed foods and how we can easily integrate fruit into our daily eating by replacing current sugary, high-fat, high-sodium snacks. Today I discuss how implementing this ONE simple element to nutrition would slash worldwide obesity, dramatically reduce type-2 Diabetes, cancer and heart-related illnesses. Yes, it's super-simple... it's just most people aren't doing it!

Since my surgery to my left rotator cuff on 18 December 2018, I've been working hard to rehabilitate it.

What does it mean for my Road to 600 Project and my day to day functionality from here....find out inside!
