My stance on Big Pharma + the medical system

I’m not anti-Pharma. Modern medicine has saved lives. There’s a time and place for pharmaceuticals, surgery, and medical intervention.

But, let’s be honest: the over-reliance on pills and the blind faith in “the research” has created the absolute mess we’re in today.

People have been conditioned to outsource responsibility for their health.

Instead of taking ownership, they wait until they’re sick, then expect a prescription or operation to fix what years of poor choices created.

Big Pharma doesn’t profit off people who move well, eat real food, sleep, and manage stress. They profit off chronic disease - and sadly, the system is set up to manage sickness, not promote health.

Here’s what we’ve been sold as “healthy” by medical authorities… only to learn the hard way:

1️⃣ Smoking was recommended by doctors - in the 1950s, ci******es were marketed as stress relief, even endorsed by physicians.

2️⃣ Low-fat, high-sugar diets - decades of pushing low-fat products has contributed to the rise in obesity, diabetes, and heart disease.

3️⃣ Opioid painkillers are safe and non-addictive - we all know where that got us: the opioid crisis.

4️⃣ Margarine is healthier than butter - industrial seed oils over natural fats? Turns out, that was a disaster for heart health.

5️⃣ Thalidomide for morning sickness - prescribed to pregnant women in the 50s/60s, causing horrific birth defects.

The point?

YOU have to take charge of your health and not wait for the system to save you.

Move daily.

Eat nutrient-dense food.

Sleep.

Breathe.

Question what you’re told.

How to fuel yourself as an amateur athlete

Let’s be honest - pro athletes have no choice but to nail their fueling every single day. Their training, game intensity, and physical demands are next level.

But, for amateur athletes? I get it - you’re juggling work, family, and sport. The volume and intensity aren’t as high, so yes… you can get away with a little more.

But, if you want to feel and perform your best, here’s a simple fueling plan you can stick to:

👉 24 hours before a game:
✅ Start hydrating - water + electrolytes (not just plain water).
✅ Cut alcohol, processed foods, and sugar.
✅ Eat a high-protein, medium-carb, whole-food dinner (think chicken, home-made chips and veggies).
✅ Prioritise good sleep.

👉 Game day:
✅ Hydrate as soon as you wake up - water + electrolytes.
✅ Have a high-protein, medium-carb, whole-food breakfast (eggs, sourdough toast, fruit & honey) or lunch (depending on KO - steak burrito).
✅ 2 hours pre-game: high-protein snack (collagen-rich if possible - think bone broth, chicken wings, collagen smoothie or collagen bar).
✅ Keep hydrating!
✅ 30-60 minutes pre-game: watery fruit (watermelon, oranges, kiwi, grapes) + hydration.

👉 During the game/training:
💧 Focus on hydration - don’t wait until you’re thirsty.

👉 Post-game:
✅ Rebuild with protein (collagen is gold here), whole foods, and fruit - one of the best things to do is to repeat the previous nights dinner by making extra.

💡 The better you fuel, the better you’ll feel, play, and recover - even as an amateur.

🟠 What’s the deal with blue blocking glasses?

And, do I actually use mine? (Spoiler: I forget half the time 😅)

Let’s break it down: Blue blocking glasses are designed to filter out blue light emitted from screens (phones, laptops, TVs) and artificial lighting (LEDs, fluorescent lights).

The idea is simple - blue light exposure, especially after sunset, can mess with your body’s natural rhythms.

👉 Why is blue light disruptive?
Blue light signals to your brain that it’s still daytime. This suppresses melatonin (your sleep hormone), delays your sleep cycle, and can lead to poorer quality sleep.

Over time, this can contribute to fatigue, brain fog, and even mess with metabolic health. That’s why late-night scrolling or Netflix binging without protection can leave you wide-eyed at midnight when you should be winding down.

👉 How can blue blockers help?
Wearing blue light blocking glasses in the evening can:
✔ Help your body produce melatonin naturally
✔ Make it easier to fall asleep
✔ Support better recovery, focus, and energy the next day

But here’s me being real with you: As much as I love these glasses and believe in their benefits, I constantly forget to put them on.

I’ll remember when I’m already on my phone, or I’ll leave them in another room. So I’m working on building the habit - leaving them next to the couch or on my bedside table so they’re harder to miss.

If you’re curious about improving sleep and focus without overhauling your life, give them a go.

Just don’t beat yourself up if you forget sometimes. Progress > perfection.

PLEASE READ BEFORE FOLLOWING

This is my space. My views. My journey. My work.

I share what I know, what I believe in, and what I’ve found helpful for those I serve. I’m not here to please everyone - I’m here to offer value to the right people.

So, before you hit “follow,” please take a moment to read this:

✅ I don’t know everything and I get things wrong sometimes. When I do, I’ll own it and I’ll apologise. I’ll also make sure I learn and do better. But, until then, I stand by what I share because it comes from experience, study, and belief.

✅ I don’t care what you think - and that’s not unkindness. I respect your right to your opinion. I just don’t have the bandwidth to engage every comment, debate, or criticism.

This account is for sharing, not for arguing. I’ll choose when and where I engage - my energy goes to helping people, not to endless back-and-forth.

✅ Comment if you want - but know this: I rarely, if ever, reply to negativity. Life’s too short, and I’d rather spend my time helping those who want help.

✅ If you don’t like what I share, just move on. There’s no need to follow, comment, or linger. It’s your feed. Protect your space and peace.

✅ I’m here to help - but helping means I won’t always say what’s comfortable. Growth is uncomfortable.

Change is uncomfortable.

If we’re going to get stronger, healthier, and better together, we have to step into discomfort. I’m willing to do that. I hope you are too.

✅ This is a space of integrity. I will never water down my message just to make it easier to digest. I will express myself fully, because that’s where change starts.

I welcome those who can respect that, even when we don’t always agree.

If all that resonates, welcome. If not - no hard feelings, just keep scrolling.

⚽ Playing While Not 100% Fit? Let’s Get Real.

Here’s the truth no one tells amateur athletes: you’ll rarely feel 100% on game day.

Whether it’s a tight hamstring, a sore ankle, or a stiff back - these ni**les are part of the game.

Studies show up to 70% of amateur athletes compete with minor discomfort at any given time.

But here’s the catch - There’s a BIG difference between playing with a ni**le and playing injured.

💥 A ni**le? It’s that mild soreness or tightness that warms up and feels better as you move. You can still sprint, change direction, and perform without compensating.

💥 An injury? That’s when pain limits what you can do - you’re limping, avoiding certain movements, or changing how you run or kick.

And here’s where logic kicks in:
➡ If you’re compensating, you’re creating a new problem.
➡ If you can’t train at full capacity, why would you play at full capacity?

🧠 Think long term. Playing injured might feel like “toughing it out,” but it often leads to longer recovery times and more serious injuries.

One stat to remember: athletes who play while injured have 3-5x higher risk of a secondary injury.

✅ Understand your body’s signals - they’re there for a reason.
✅ Always go through a thorough warm-up to test your abilities before pushing to full intensity.

🔥 Not sure if it’s safe to play? Don’t guess - get clarity.

Message me and we’ll get you booked in for a free injury assessment and make smarter game-day decisions.

Why I Rarely Drink Alcohol (and Don’t Miss It)

People sometimes ask why I rarely (if ever) drink alcohol. For me, it’s simple: I want to live with clarity, strength, and purpose - and alcohol doesn’t align with that.

First, I don’t like the idea of my daughters seeing me drunk, out of sorts, or out of control.

Kids learn by watching, and research shows parental drinking habits shape their future choices.

A 2018 BMC Public Health study found children exposed to parental drunkenness were twice as likely to get drunk themselves before age 14.

Second, I like waking up early and feeling my best. Even small amounts of alcohol can disrupt sleep, cutting deep, restorative sleep by up to 24% (Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research).

That foggy, drained feeling in the morning? Not for me. I want to hit the day with energy.

Third - and most personal to me - I know too much about alcohol’s negative effects. My dad died in 2018 from liver damage caused by alcohol. I saw firsthand how alcohol can destroy a body and break hearts.

Beyond liver disease, alcohol is linked to over 200 health conditions - including heart disease, stroke, depression, and several cancers. The World Health Organization classifies it as a Group 1 carcinogen, the same category as to***co.

Finally, I like knowing I can protect and support my family at all times - whether that means driving, making good decisions, or staying clear-headed in an emergency. Alcohol takes that edge away, and I’m not willing to trade it.

That said, I do sometimes enjoy a drink:

1. When I’m away with the lads or
2. At a live rugby game - I do like a Guinness.

But I don’t drink to get wasted. I value staying present, connected, and in control.

Ready to live clearer, stronger, and in control?

WHY I LOVE COACHING

I’ve always been drawn to everything about sports - the energy, the competition, the community, the lessons.

There’s nothing better than being around it day in, day out. It’s not just about the game - it’s about what the game gives us.

Honestly, I see coaching as a bit of a duty. When you’re good at something - when you get it on a deeper level - I believe you’re supposed to share it.

That’s how we lift each other up. Sports has shaped so much of who I am. It’s taught me discipline, accountability, resilience, fitness, how to win, how to lose, and how to be part of something bigger than myself. It’s given me friendships, struggles, joy, and purpose - and I believe everyone deserves to experience that.

Now, let’s be real -statistically, most of the athletes I coach won’t go pro. But that’s not the only measure of success.

Maybe they’ll earn a scholarship, maybe they’ll use their skills to open new doors.

What I do know for sure is this: every single one of them will go on to contribute to this world in some way. And if I can play a small role in helping them build confidence, character, and a love for sport? That’s an honour I take seriously.

That’s why I coach.

🔁 The Power of Habit Stacking: A Real Client Story

One of the most powerful tools in behaviour change isn’t willpower. It’s strategy - and nothing beats habit stacking.

Let me share a simple but powerful example.

I had a client struggling with weight loss. Her main roadblock? Alcohol. A few drinks most nights was her way to unwind, but it was sabotaging her progress.

Instead of telling her to quit cold turkey (which rarely works), I helped her stack a new habit on top of an old one.

We swapped her nightly drink with a Sodii electrolyte, but here’s the kicker: she made it in her usual G&T or wine glass. Same glass. Same ritual. Totally different outcome.

And it worked.

📉 In 22 days, she lost 4.8kg.

By Day 4, she was waking up clearer. Less groggy. More energy. That naturally led to better sleep and better choices.

By Day 10, the momentum kicked in. She started choosing healthier food without me even prompting her.

Six months later?
✅ No drinks during the week.
✅ Same ritual, upgraded habit.
✅ She still uses the wine glass… but it’s filled with hydration, not sabotage.

⸻

Lesson?
Habit stacking meets your brain where it’s at. You don’t fight your routines - you redirect them.

So whether it’s swapping:
• scrolling Instagram for leaning on your phone,
• caffeinated coffee for a non caffeinated coffee,
• or alcohol for electrolytes…
• indoor meeting for outdoor ones

The structure stays. The outcome changes.

Start small. Stack smart. And watch your life shift.

STOP Babying Your Injury!

How Progressive Loading Supercharges Healing 👇🏼

Too many injuries linger because people STOP moving.

Progressive loading - gradually increasing tissue stress - is the most powerful way to rebuild strength, flexibility, and resilience post-injury.

Example: gentle walking, resistance bands, partial range squats.

When done right, loading tells your body: Rebuild here!

Too little = weak tissues. Too much = flare-ups.

Pain is your guide.

Small, consistent steps create robust recovery.

📍RECOVERY ISN’T JUST FOR PRO ATHLETES - IT’S FOR ALL OF US.

One of the great joys of my work is getting to support professional athletes like with their recovery protocols.

But here’s the truth: you don’t need a sponsorship deal or a six-figure contract to earn the right to recover properly.

Recovery isn’t a luxury - it’s a requirement.

Whether you’re a weekend warrior, a shift worker, a business owner, a busy dad, or someone rebuilding after an injury… your body is your vehicle.

And if you’re constantly driving it hard without stopping for fuel, maintenance, or alignment, it’s only a matter of time before something breaks.

That’s where the right recovery strategies make all the difference.

In my practice, I use a combination of:
🔹 Scraping (IASTM) – to break up adhesions and encourage tissue repair
🔹 Cupping – to improve blood flow, release deep tension, and restore fascial glide
🔹 Percussion therapy – to stimulate the nervous system and reduce soreness fast
🔹 Self-Myofascial Release techniques - to improve the health of your tissue and increase blood flow to the area.
🔹 Fascia Based Movements - to increase movement capacity and efficiency.

These tools aren’t gimmicks - they’re part of a strategic, science-backed approach to restoring function, reducing pain, and enhancing performance.

Recovery shouldn’t start after you’re broken. It should be built into your weekly rhythm, just like training.

So yes, I work with elite athletes.

But,I also work with everyday legends who want to move better, feel better, and perform better in the game of life.

Prioritise your recovery.

Your future self will thank you.

I Wish I Knew Then What I Know Now - Or Do I?

How often do we hear it?
“I wish I knew back then what I know now.”

But that wish is rooted in the fantasy of skipping the struggle. And if I skipped the struggle, who would I be today?

The truth is: wisdom doesn’t come with shortcuts - it comes with scars.

Seneca said, “Difficulties strengthen the mind, as labor does the body.” So why would I rob my past self of that mental strength?

Everything I know now, I earned through trial. Through pain. Through showing up on days I didn’t want to.

We grow by walking through the fire, not by being rescued from it.

So no - I don’t wish I knew then what I know now.
I’m grateful I didn’t know. Because it forced me to become someone who could learn.

Health doesn’t need to be expensive.

Wellness isn’t in products - it’s in practices.

You don’t need a fancy gym.

You need discipline.

You don’t need the next supplement.

You need sleep, fresh air, natural light, good food and a long walk in nature.

Try this:
1. Focus on basic habits: eat well, walk, SMR, rest.
2. Declutter your health routine. Simplify your tools.
3. Write down 3 things your body already does well - start from abundance.
4. Cut what doesn’t serve. Double down on what does.

The richest people want less and do more.

JC’s Story

Tired of seeing a number of close friends and relatives struggle to comprehend and understand the vast amounts of training and nutritional information that is out there; JC decided it was time to change that and so he created a place where he could share his knowledge and experience and help them and others achieve the body and life they deserve!

“My goal with Nutri-Train is to educate, motivate and guide those who want to live a better, healthier and more fulfilling life. ​​I believe that ‘health must come before aesthetics’ is the only way to achieve lasting results. The great news is, aesthetics will always be a by-product of improved health, and health will always improve aesthetics” - JC
