If you’re buying shilajit from eBay, Facebook Marketplace or Terry Two-Stripes and his sports bag full of 'goodies', I’ve got bad news for you… It probably isn’t shilajit 🤣

But if you actually want the real thing, I recently trialled shilajit from LLS (full review below), and I can now follow up with bloodwork showing my testosterone has gone back up.

Before anyone jumps on that, I’m not saying that shilajit is a magic testosterone booster. As you can see my levels have been high for years, but they dipped recently. No surprise why mind, two young children, broken sleep, less recovery, life chaos etc.

And over the last few months I have implemented a number of changes to bring my levels back up naturally, shilajit was just one of those changes.

At 43 years old, I don’t use Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) or any Performance Enhancing Drugs (PED's) for that matter. I’m very aware that a lot of people in the industry do, whether they admit it or not while claiming 'natural' results to sell their programmes 🤦

Those of you that know me well will know that that's not my approach. Instead I focus on stacking the fundamentals and implementing everything that's proven to work, and when the needle moves, well.

And for anyone sceptical, bloodwork makes it pretty obvious whether someone is on TRT or not. Markers like Luteinising Hormone (LH) and Follicle Stimulating Hormone (FSH) are typically suppressed or near zero if someone is using exogenous testosterone. Mine sit comfortably within the normal range alongside high testosterone, which tells you everything you need to know.

For anyone that wants to give this product a try, here's 25% off your first order;

And if you're interested to know if it increases your testosterone, please test your levels first. A post for another time, but definitely don't be getting testosterone from Terry Two-Stripes either, or taking testosterone without first knowing your levels and then implementing all of the natural measures.

The company I use to test is Thriva, and if you want to check yours, you can use my client discount code to get £30 off your first order. Get your Vitamin D levels tested at the same time, I guarantee you're not in the optimal range;

Hey everyone,

Over the years I’ve had quite a lot of people express interest about my training, and how at 43 years old I keep progressing.

So I wanted to create something that gives you all access to the exact systems, structure, and tools I use myself and with clients, but in a self-managed format.

I do offer online coaching led services, but I appreciate that not everyone wants, or needs full coaching.

So if you’re confident training on your own but want proper structure and progression, and to experience my style of training, then this is for you.

Also, I have generated a discount code STEJAY25 that will give you 25% off, indefinitely, you’re welcome 👍

Hey everyone,

I just wanted to share an answer to a question I was asked today about collagen, and the differences between the types found in marine vs bovine collagen, mainly Type I and Type III.

So marine collagen (from fish) is predominantly Type I collagen, which is the most abundant structural collagen in the body (around 90%). It plays a major role in skin, hair, nails, bones and connective tissue. This is why marine collagen is often used for more skin and beauty-focused benefits, even though the benefits still extend to structural tissues.

Bovine collagen (from cows) on the other hand typically provides both Type I and Type III collagen. Type III is commonly found alongside Type I in tissues like skin, muscles, ligaments and blood vessels, so bovine collagen can offer slightly broader connective-tissue support, it just tends to be less specifically skin-targeted than marine collagen, which is richer in Type I.

However it’s important to note that the evidence for Type I and III collagen directly improving joint pain is relatively modest. For joint pain, nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids have stronger evidence, mainly because they help reduce inflammation, which is often a major driver of joint discomfort.

Interestingly, there are 28 different types of collagen in the body, but the only other one worth mentioning here is Type II collagen, which is the main collagen found in cartilage. Some studies suggest that supplementing with undenatured Type II collagen may help reduce joint pain and stiffness, particularly in people with osteoarthritis. However, intake of omega-3 is would still likely have more impact here due to reducing inflammation, which is likely a major contributor to joint pain.

As you know, I personally go back and forth between marine and bovine collagen. This way I get the ongoing benefits of marine collagen for skin, hair and nails, along with the slightly broader connective-tissue support that bovine collagen provides.

Here are the two different collagen products I use and recommend along with my discount codes, you’re welcome ☺️

Right now, your training is probably better than mine.

Your energy, focus, consistency, recovery, all probably better.

Your sleep, definitely better 🤣

And it’s no surprise that many parents don’t train, especially when they’re attending to the needs of a toddler or a newborn, or both 🙃

And it’s not always a time thing either. I mean obviously, that’s a factor, but sometimes the energy simply isn’t there. Yes, exercise creates energy, but when sleep is broken and reserves are low, training can just feel like emptying an already depleted tank.

But here’s the thing, and how my physique might be perceived as someone who’s training is going well, when by my own standards, it isn’t.

Because even on a bad day, my nutrition is probably better than yours.

My programming and obsession with training towards balanced strength, optimal body composition, aesthetics and symmetry, also, probably better.

And whilst I can’t progress at the rate I know I’m capable of, even at 43, progression always happens. Whether it’s one rep or one kilogram, the needle moves.

Sure, some days it feels harder, make that most days actually, but unless I’m at the end of a training phase, progression happens every single session.

That is it 💪

* Enjoys training but wants a coach reviewing their data weekly to ensure they keep progressing in the right direction.

My training isn’t just random workouts thrown together. A huge amount of thought and structure goes into each programme. And whilst they’re not personalised to your exact goals, they’re designed to deliver results. If you show up and put in the work, you will get the results, and I’ll ensure you keep pushing your limits every single week. This isn’t optional. It’s how it’s done, let's gooooo 🚀

To those of you overwhelmed by what supplements to use, here is what I recommend to all of my clients using, in no particular order:

Magnesium Biglycinate - https://zooki.com/STEJAY21

Vitamin K2 - https://uk.iherb.com/.../innovixlabs-full-spectrum.../94915 / Discount code: BFZ5045

Omega 3 - https://www.dolphinfitness.co.uk/.../life.../184643

Collagen with Vitamin C - Zooki https://zooki.com/STEJAY21 And/Or LLS https://www.lovelifesupplements.co.uk/?ref=stejay21

Magnesium - https://zooki.com/STEJAY21

Creatine - https://zooki.com/STEJAY21

Vitamin D (if you know your blood levels)

This isn’t an extensive list, there are obviously other supplements that can be beneficial, but this is a good foundational stack that ticks a lot of boxes in terms of overall health and based on what is likely to be lacking in most diets. Anything beyond these basic requirements becomes more targeted to the individual and their needs.

If, and ONLY if you are using these first line supplements, then and ONLY then do you consider secondline supplementation. I have seen too many posts lately of people going out and spending £100’s of supplements they don’t need simply because someone who know’s nothing about your nutritional intake has recommended it, like those B12 injections you got from Janet at the salon, despite not establishing if you even have a vitamin B12 deficiency 🤦

Or that Shilijat you got from Two stripes Tony, I guarantee isn’t Shilijat 🤣

So please STOP, ensure you're taking the above, once you are, then you can explore more targeted strategies.

The above is what I use and recommend, all of which meet my strict supplementation criteria, i.e.; clean, high quality, 3rd party tested Zooki, LLS, InnovixLabs. Anything that isn’t, simply put, does NOT contain what it claims, and thankfully, there is now have lots of evidence to support this. For example, a recent study on Amazon brands found that of 44 supplements tested;

87% didn't contain the ingredients claimed.
22 brands only contained 0-3% of what was claimed.
All 13 that didn't have website failed testing.
6 of 8 creatine gummies contained zero creatine.

And this isn't exclusive to Amazon, many of the bigger brands have also been flagged for this, and sadly the reality is that no testing essential means that the product doesn't contain what is claimed on the packaging.

Moving on, obviously there are other supplements that I take, but these are specific to me, and therefore not relevant to this post.
