At Brooks Performance we cut through the industry hype and help you integrate proven, no nonsense training and nutrition solutions into your busy schedule. We will get you that ever-elusive six-pack, increase your energy levels, improve your confidence and have you feeling comfortable in your clothes again. We’re all about creating the best version of you – from the beach, to the boardroom, to the

bedroom. Our philosophy is that you cannot be fit without being healthy. As such, we put significant focus on getting you healthy from the inside. We aim to have you sleeping better, thinking better, managing stress better and digesting better. We will call on methods such as Biosignature, blood chemistry profiling and performance nutrition to help you achieve a true state of health. We also believe that you can’t achieve optimal body composition without being strong. Therefore, our scientifically based programming will focus significantly on the accretion of strength. You will be getting under that bar, lifting heavy and pushing yourself to new limits. Our training style is simple; we write the rulebook based on the job you set for us – achieving your own individual version of improved health, performance and physical appearance. We will not hold your hand, be your counsellor or count your reps. Rather we will kick your behind, make you accountable, push you to new limits and most importantly achieve your goals. No other way is fitting for the commitment and investment that you will be making in your health.

Every bloke over 35 who’s tried to ‘pick up where he left off’ knows this feeling.

The ego says get right back into it. The back and joints are screaming for their life.

If you haven’t trained properly in years, you’re not rusty. You’re a different body.

The ankles don’t move like they used to. The hips are tight. The stabilisers are asleep. The core has forgotten how to brace.

Loading a heavy bilateral lift ON TOP OF all that is how you end up injured and on the sidelines AGAIN.

This is why we build guys from the ground up. We meet them where their body is, not where their ego is.

That’s the Average to Savage method. It’s adapted for blokes over 35 who want to lift til they’re dead, not die trying 💀

What that actually looks like:

- Movement quality before load.
- Unilateral work before bilateral.
- Dumbbells, cables and machines before the barbell.
- Mobility, stability and core rigidity drilled in.
- Work capacity built, so when we do put a bar on your back, the body can handle it.

By the time we get to barbell back squats, you’ve earned the right to be there. And you’re not doing it on a body that’s about to fold.

You’re not 21. Don’t train like you are.

If you’re rebuilding from years off and don’t want to do it on guesswork, you’re in the right place.

Dennis didn’t come to me chasing abs. He came to me wanting to be fast on the Oztag field again.

The abs were a side effect.

10.2kg down at 40. Still hitting PRs in week 16. Pants falling off him. Wife noticed.

Dennis is just 1 of 500+ blokes over 35 I’ve put through this.

Taking 5 new fellas this month. Apply now - link in bio.

A double drop in your 40s hits different to when you were partying in your 20s 😂

We’ve all been there though. No judgment.

The first thing every guy does when he decides to get serious is go shopping. Pre-workout, protein, BCAAs, fat burner, a new gym bag. Drops $300 before he’s done a single session.

And that’s all good and well. Nothing like a good dopamine hit to get you amped and motivated.

But for what it’s worth - most of the research suggests the bit that actually works in pre-workout is the caffeine. The rest is mostly marketing. A strong coffee before training does basically the same thing.

Meanwhile the guys actually changing their body are just... showing up. Consistently. Eating enough protein. Sleeping.

Genuinely boring stuff.

Don’t fear fruit. Fear the pseudoscience-peddling, click-hungry wellness grifters who strip complex topics of all nuance to make their content shareable and sellable.

Most fitness influencers don’t know how insulin truly works. So if you see any of them spewing this bu****it - Run. Don’t walk. 🏃‍♂️💨

The “fruit causes insulin resistance” claim comes from studies where participants consumed 250g of pure fructose on top of their normal diet daily - the equivalent of drinking 4 litres of apple juice extra, every single day.

Nobody. Is. Doing. That.

Meanwhile the actual research on consuming WHOLE fruit consistently shows it reduces fasting blood sugar, lowers diabetes risk and supports fat loss.

Why? Because whole fruit produces a slow, modest insulin response.
It comes packaged with fibre, water and polyphenols that slow digestion right down.

Insulin is not the enemy. It’s a hormone your body releases to move glucose into your cells for energy. It fires every time you eat - not just when you eat fruit.

Terms like “insulin spike” and “insulin resistance” sound terrifying - and that’s exactly the point.

They’re medical-sounding words that online charlatans use to make you feel like your body is broken so they can swoop in as the expert with all the answers.

They’re not experts. They just play one on Instagram.
