Stuck in the same weight loss rut?

Stuck on your fitness journey?

It’s not about your body—it’s about your calorie deficit. Track your weekdays vs. weekends, watch out for silent surpluses, and manage sauces and condiments.

Progress isn’t always on the scale.

BPC-157: Hype or Helpful?

After my post on Retatrutide did well, I’m continuing the peptide education series.

Let’s talk about BPC-157.

It’s a synthetic peptide derived from a protective protein found in gastric juice. Most of the research comes from animal models, but it’s gained serious traction in sports performance and functional health circles.

Why?

Because early data and practitioner reports suggest it may:

• Support tendon & ligament repair
• Assist gut healing
• Help modulate inflammation
• Aid recovery from injury

But here’s the part people skip 👇

It is not FDA approved.
Human clinical data is limited.
Most protocols online are anecdotal.

This isn’t magic.
This isn’t a shortcut.
And it definitely isn’t a substitute for training, nutrition and sleep by optimised.

Peptides are tools.
Not foundations.

If you’re injured, inflamed and under-recovering…
Fix the basics first.

Then understand what you’re experimenting with.

Education > Blind optimisation.

I won!!! 🏆

And what a week it’s been on the achievement front.

Receiving the incredible news earlier in the week that had won Private Gym of the Year had me on cloud 9, but this is truly the cherry on top! I’m in utter disbelief!

I’ve been lucky enough to have received recognition through the years in my role as Personal Trainer, Online Coach and Mentor, but never more than within the city/region or Scotland.

So to get an award that pits me against those across the entirety of the UK certainly hits different.

I’ll never claim to be the best nor the most knowledgeable coach, but I’d like to think I always give my absolute all to my clients in anyway I can to help them feel happier and healthier.

So proud, and honestly so grateful! ❤️

GYM ADDICTION: The PED Trap

Everyone’s seen Limitless.

One pill…
Sharper.
Stronger.
More capable.
Untouchable.

That’s the hook.

Steroids can feel like that too.

You’re stronger every week.
You look fuller. Leaner. Bigger.
Recovery feels elite.
Confidence goes through the roof.

And then comes the trap…

Because once you’ve felt that version of yourself
the enhanced version
going back to “normal” feels like a downgrade.

Strength drops.
Physique softens.
Energy dips.
Identity takes a hit.

So people don’t come off.

Not always because they’re chasing trophies on a bodybuilding stage…
But because they’re chasing a feeling.

That’s where “gym addiction” becomes chemical, literally and metaphorically.

And here’s the uncomfortable question:

Were you building your body…
or outsourcing it?

Real discipline is being able to build something you can sustain.

Health isn’t impressive when it’s enhanced.
It’s impressive when it’s repeatable.

This isn’t judgement.
It’s simply awareness.

Know the cost before you buy the feeling.

Let’s be honest…

Squatting is scary enough at the best of times, never mind when you don’t have a spot, and/or you are touching new weight on the bar.

One way to help assist you with this is by using a resistance band.

Now I’m sure people will shower hate and say ‘Just don’t lift as heavy?’ But the reality is, if you want to build confidence and progressively overload you want to get strong in every way possible: eccentric and concentric.

This is one way to go about that, just as you would use a band for pull-ups, dips, or reverse band a press - this is just as effective for squatting 😉

Do women need a different fat loss strategy?

No, but precision is key.

With smaller maintenance calories, nutrient intake and micronutrient management are crucial.

Focus on quality over quantity 🫡

The Shift in the Fitness Industry: From Enhancement to Health Advocacy

Health shouldn’t be a rebrand. It shouldn’t be the next goal or aspiration. That should be the foundation. Always should be and always was.
