“If up to 90% of chronic disease is linked to what we eat and drink, then nutrition isn’t a trend — it’s prevention.”

A few years ago, I was 10–15kg overweight, insulin resistant, borderline Type 2 diabetic, constantly tired, with high blood pressure, sleep apnoea, and aching joints. My body was warning me — I wasn’t listening.

Everything changed when I removed sugars and refined carbs and focused on whole foods: lean proteins, good fats, and simple nutrition.
Vitamin D also became non-negotiable. Low vitamin D is linked to insulin resistance, inflammation, low energy, poor immunity, and heart disease — especially important for women’s bone, hormone, and metabolic health.

The result?
Normal blood pressure, better sleep, more energy, pain-free joints, sharper focus — I stopped surviving and started living.

This matters deeply to me. My best friend died from a heart attack and shared many of the same risk factors I once had. I wish he’d had the chance to change too.

It’s never too late. Small daily choices can protect your future health.

DM me if you want guidance on nutrition or training.

Post-pregnancy. Twins.
An amputee after bone cancer.
Graces's nervous system that’s been through more than most bodies ever will.

Returning to training after life changes that reshape the body and the nervous system isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about rebuilding trust, restoring stability, and teaching the system that movement is safe again.
Progress here is slow by design.
Calm before force. Control before intensity.
Consistency over chaos.
This is training that respects the body’s history, not fights it.
Sustainable. Intentional. Powerful in silence. 🧠💪

Name the movie quote

"A man has got to know his limitations "

Muscle is powerful only when the body can maintain it.
Excess muscle, like excess fat mass, increases stress on the nervous system, digestion, hormones, joints, and the cardiovascular system. When demand exceeds recovery, homeostasis breaks down.
Restoring balance doesn’t make you weaker, it makes you sustainable.

Abs aren’t decoration. They’re infrastructure.

Your core works as a single system, not a set of isolated tiles. Training abs as one unit improves spinal stability, power transfer, posture, and injury resilience. Real strength comes from coordinated tension, not endless crunches. When the core works together, everything moves better, lifts heavier, and lasts longer. Train your abs to function, not just to flex.

“If as much as 90% of chronic disease is influenced by what we consume, then nutrition isn’t a phase — it’s a form of protection.”
A few years back, I was carrying 10–15kg extra, insulin resistant, edging towards Type 2 diabetes, permanently exhausted, dealing with high blood pressure, sleep apnoea, and constant joint pain. My body was sending signals. I chose to ignore them.
That changed when I stripped back sugar and refined carbs and prioritised real food: quality protein, healthy fats, and uncomplicated nutrition. Vitamin D became essential. Low levels are strongly linked to insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, low energy, weak immunity, and cardiovascular risk — and it plays a huge role in women’s bone density, hormones, and metabolic health.
What happened next? Blood pressure normalised. Sleep improved. Energy returned. Joint pain disappeared. Focus sharpened. I stopped just getting by and started feeling alive again.
This is personal. A close friend of mine died from a heart attack and had many of the same risk factors I once carried. He never got the opportunity to make the changes I did.
It’s not too late. The choices you make daily can quietly shape your future health.
If you want support with nutrition or training, drop me a DM.

After a breakup, leg day is basically therapy with a barbell.
Big compound lifts spike testosterone, growth hormone, and endorphins—your brain chemistry literally improves while you’re questioning your life choices. Heavy leg training crushes cortisol and forces full focus. You can’t overthink when your legs are shaking.
Heart broken. CNS rebuilt. Walking away stronger.
