Here are the 10 things that actually worked during my own transformation.
No gimmicks.
No extremes.
Just repeatable actions.
1. I walked every day
Low stress. High return.
2. I strength trained properly
Planned sessions. Progressive loading.
3. I stopped training hungry
Fuel first. Train better. Recover better.
4. I ate protein every day
Every meal counted.
5. I ate more fibre, grains, nuts, and vegetables
Better digestion. Better blood sugar. Better energy.
6. I asked one question
What would Fit Trev do?
Not what Fat Trev felt like doing.
7. I set realistic goals
Not just weight loss.
Strength. Fitness. Habits I could keep.
8. I used bad days as feedback
No quitting. Just learning.
9. I stayed consistent, not perfect
Progress beats perfection.
10. I built habits and values, not motivation
Motivation fades. Habits stay.
This worked so well for me in my 50s because our bodies no longer respond to eat less, do more.
We need a smarter approach.
Walking supports metabolic health and recovery.
Strength training builds the muscle that shapes your body.
Protein and fibre help hunger, blood sugar, and body composition.
Fuelled workouts let you train harder and actually build strength.
Moving away from dieting changes how you show up every day.
When these pieces come together, your body becomes responsive again.
Your metabolism gets stronger.
Your energy stabilises.
Fat loss becomes easier to sustain.
Quick reminder.
My next 12-week Reclaim You programme is about to start.
Inside, you get:
• A full 12-week training plan
• Sessions you can do at home, in the gym, or on the move
• Clear demo videos for every exercise
• An app to track workouts, habits, and progress
No guesswork.
No random training.
This is a phased approach to health and fitness.
These 12 weeks are not the finish line.
They’re the first phase.
The aim is simple.
Get you moving consistently.
Get you training with purpose.
Get you heading in the right direction.
If this approach sounds like what you’ve been missing, give me a shout.
