So often, I see people getting the foundation wrong. A lot of my work is connecting how people wish to live their life with some of the basic fundamentals. This is where the magic is and where long-term change is most likely and successful.

Aaron presented with some very specific physical limitations due to a significant prior injury. Our work was to achieve a leaner, more muscular physique while not triggering relapses. We achieved our goal while also making some serious progress career wise. The nature of my systems revolves around systems, so you best believe we are setting up for the next wave to improve on this.

A near 10% drop in body mass while increasing strength and capacity by ~60% in a trained individual is nothing short of extraordinary.

Despite how impressive this image is, it fails to truly capture the work that has put in. Blake has had it all happen over the last 18 months, and it fills me with a lot of pride to say that I was along for the journey.

A foundational element of my business is achieving an outcome and then maintaining it for at least 2 years using each clients preferences for life. Momentum of this nature builds slowly over time - perhaps a little slower than other avenues - though outcomes are more longlasting.

Well done, Blake!

The culmination of years of work with my friend,

We have grown considerably in that time. One of the greatest elements of our relationship is honesty, which has influenced his journey to achieving an unbelievable look.

Being honest with yourself and with a coach can be the difference between finding change that lasts a lifetime and hating the process entirely.

How Jac and I blended his journey with the evidence base supporting the outcome he wanted was unique and something I cherish!

I personally believe food culture has been diluted by critical calorie, macro/micro-nutrient over obsession. Making hand-made pasta for my partner is special to me and always includes kitchen antics, laughter, and opportunities for connection. This is what food can do for people, and that is why I maintain and encourage an inclusive mindset around food and food choices. Create a relationship with food that you want and that best serves you. At EB we find your model, not force you to fit ours.

It was a pleasure to experience in her element on the weekend. I highly recommend signing up to her pasta making class. We took a little deep dive into her food culture, and for the first time in my life, I was hassled by an Italian Mum to eat more.

If food means more to you than simply just calories, and you recognise and value the cultural connection to food, do yourself a favor and broaden your horizons.

I will share the final product via images only, hehe.

Female athletes face unique nutritional challenges that can significantly impact their performance, recovery, and overall health. Key concerns include maintaining energy balance, supporting bone health, and addressing the risk of iron deficiency. Energy availability is crucial, as low energy intake can lead to menstrual dysfunction and impair bone health, increasing the risk of stress fractures and osteoporosis. Adequate calcium and vitamin D intake are essential for bone health, while sufficient iron intake is critical to prevent anemia, which can negatively affect endurance and strength. Additionally, female athletes should ensure they consume enough protein to support muscle repair and recovery, and balance macronutrient intake to fuel their training and competition effectively.

Proper nutrition is crucial for marathon preparation, impacting performance, recovery, and overall health. Evidence supports a well-planned diet that progressively adjusts macronutrient intake leading up to the race. In the 10 weeks leading to the marathon, the focus should be on optimizing carbohydrate intake to fuel training and promote glycogen storage, ensuring adequate protein for muscle repair, and maintaining hydration.

As race day approaches, particularly in the week before, carbohydrate loading becomes essential to maximize glycogen stores. The day of the race requires a carefully timed meal strategy to provide sustained energy, while nutrition during the marathon focuses on maintaining energy levels and hydration to delay fatigue and prevent dehydration.

Caffeine is a proven ergogenic aid for resistance training, enhancing strength, power, and muscular endurance. It works by stimulating the central nervous system, increasing alertness, focus, and reducing perceived exertion. Research shows that caffeine can significantly improve one-repetition maximum (1RM) strength and explosive power in exercises like squats and bench presses. It also helps extend muscular endurance, allowing for more repetitions before fatigue sets in.

The optimal dose is typically 3-6 mg/kg of body weight, taken 30-60 minutes before exercise to maximize performance benefits. However, individual tolerance varies, so it’s important to test different dosages during training. Regular users may experience diminished effects due to tolerance, but a short break can help restore caffeine’s effectiveness. When used strategically, caffeine can be a powerful tool in any resistance training regimen.
