8 weeks ago, Ryan reached out feeling stuck
He’d always been an active guy - competitive & driven — but life had caught up with him
Between work & family, his training had lost structure
Motivation came in waves
He’d go all in for a few weeks, then burn out and fall back into old habits
What he really wanted was simple - shed the belly fat so we could see some abs, get lean and athletic and help improve his running for the great north run and over events coming up
But deeper than that — he wanted to feel like himself again
To be the best version of himself, not just for his own growth, but for his kids
To lead by example and show them what commitment looks like
Fast forward 8 weeks and he’s down 17.2lbs, looking lean, confident, and in control
The biggest win hasn’t just been the physical change — it’s the mindset shift
He’s gone from all-or-nothing thinking, inconsistency & anxiety around training…
To structure, accountability, and steady progression week after week
Now, we’re shifting into a lean building phase — pushing strength, performance, and muscle growth to build on this foundation
This is what happens when you stop chasing perfection and start building momentum
Proud of this man — and we’re just getting started 🚀📈
