Why listen to me

I've stood where you're standing

I know how it feels to walk around in a body you don't love. To pick the shirt that hides your stomach at the beach.

I lost 25kg and kept it off. The clients who keep it off all have one thing in common. They stopped guessing and followed a plan.

The method

Willpower was never the problem

Most diets are a guess. What works is doing things in the right order. Every client goes through the same three phases.

Build + Shred + Maintain = Kept off
Phase 01

Build

  • Work out your number, calories and protein, from what you eat now
  • Learn every exercise so the gym stops feeling intimidating
  • 10,000 steps, 8 hours sleep, protein at every meal
Phase 02

Shred

  • A steady calorie deficit. Nothing extreme
  • High protein meals built around food you like. Nothing is banned
  • Weekly check ins so you never sit on a plateau
Phase 03

Maintain

  • Calories come back up slowly so the weight stays off
  • Plan for weekends, dinners out and the odd drink
  • Finish knowing how to manage your own number
