Lots of people start things, and getting fit and healthy is a big thing that most people want to start at one time or another. It’s exciting to start new and exciting things whatever they are.

Starting is the easy part, finishing is the hard part!

It is the finishing that separates those with passion from those without it.

Most meaningful things in life require some suffering and sacrifice along the way, otherwise everyone would find big achievements really easy.

The problem starts if you get used to starting something all the time, then never finishing it and never seeing things through. This leads to feeling unfulfilled and eventually you don’t really believe you can accomplish anything because you can never see things through all the way, it becomes a very bad habit and trait until you actually conquer it.

When you fulfil the tasks put in front of you, you will take several steps forward each time to realising your dreams. When you see things through, the personal self-satisfaction will be huge and long-lasting. This can become a great habit too, and see you go on to completing many others things in life.

If you have passion for something, then you will see it through. When you don’t have passion, you will likely say you will “try” often building in an excuse even as you say it. If you start but don’t finish you can always say “at least i tried”.

The big difference is when you say you WILL DO. This is likely to lead to you finishing NO MATTER WHAT.

There is nothing more fulfilling than taking a dream, a goal or an aspiration-no matter how difficult-and completing it. We have many individuals doing this exact thing right now, and i see the personal pride it is giving them every day.

Whatever you goals and aspirations, the time IS NOW to see it through and feel the inner pride from doing it ALL THE WAY this time!!

Reviving your movement ability again is the very first thing we teach. How many 30, 40, 50 somethings do you know that “give up” on their movements that they used to take for granted when they were playing sport or back at school. You used to bounce around no problem then because you had a lot of natural balance and you were used to moving around full stop.

Somehow accepting the fact you will be stiff as a board for life once you leave this environment is dangerous. Once you accept that your movement is not so good anymore, and start thinking through rose-tinted glasses how “things used to be”, then everything will turn on a downward spiral.

Our training involves a lot of getting into multiple different positions designed to test you to the extreme. Simply getting into those positions is tough, performing exercises whilst in those positions is even tougher, but this strategy will always bring you superior results.

Then our strategy is always to take you out of that comfort zone as soon as you get used to it. This allows you to reach your potential far quicker because you are always in a state of challenging yourself, reaching for more, and endlessly seeking more results and rewards out of your programme.

Mentally this does wonders for you. There only becomes opportunities and possibilities in your training programme for the NOW and the future. There’s no fond stories on how things used to be and how you cant do them now. Now the talk is how good you are now, how great you can become and you will automatically find yourself volunteering to take on new and fresh challenges.

You either are getting better or falling behind, you can’t stay still that’s for sure. All of you who hit the gym with us 3 times a week will be in a constant state of improvement, positivity and development. This is great for the mind too, keeps you striving for more and let’s you know that you are alive and about to get in the best shape of your life!!!

The hardest part of being successful at anything is CONSISTENCY. This separates the ones that are continually successful and get to achieve what they set out to do, and those who flounder every time.
New year has long gone, and filling in your weekly goal sheet again may be the best thing you do over the next 24 hours (just been sent out).

Your mind will make you succeed and triumph, or make you quit and fold like a pack of cards, and blame yourself that somehow you weren’t “good enough” for whatever reason.

Decide to make this week another strong one, as it’s totally within your power. Whether you’re running a marathon or you want to recover from a lifetime of ill health, you have to keep making the right decisions that are going to take you closer to your goals.

No time to moan that monday morning is coming, as it’s the most vital workout of the week to set the tone for the rest of the week. Set your standards high, fight through the fog that appears from time to time, and CHOOSE to hit it harder than you’ve ever done before!

Going “all in” means total commitment. Going all in means you are likely to achieve what you put your mind to if you give it enough time, and you do something positive each and every day to bring you closer to your goals.

“All in” isn’t something you do “sometimes”, or something you do when you just “feel like it”.

You need to jump in with all your heart if you really want to accomplish your best work. If you take 5 axe swings every day at a tree, no matter how big, tough or stubborn the tree is, then the tree will always fall eventually. If you take 5 positive actions every day, then sure enough you will achieve exactly what you set out to do, and usually a lot more!

You need to get into a mindset that it’s impossible to fail, that as long as you take enough action consistently every day, then nothing is beyond your grasp.
Once you get into this mindset, it will break any feeling of not wanting to do anything or frustration you may have that you’re not accomplishing what you really want.

If you get into a mindset of throwing yourself into your programme, then opportunities will open up for you to do even more, your body and brain will accommodate your efforts and recognise you are constantly aiming to get better and better.

Progress is achieved one step at a time. First one is getting yourself on a programme. Then you learn it. Then you get used to it and then you thrive on it.

Our motto is that you always move forward with your exercise programme, you always need to be tested in a different way, you always need to find new ways of strengthening your weaknesses, and a new challenge every day keeps your mind fresh, and tells your body it needs to constantly adapt.

This way progress becomes a daily part of your life, and it becomes impossible to fail because you’re finally giving it everything you’ve got!!

Finding your vocation in life is important to many of you, and numerous members have chased their dreams with relentless pursuit over the last couple of years.

One thing’s for sure though when you set out to get what you want-you need to be fit and healthy to put in the hours needed to achieve what you want.

Here’s a simple fact, most people work 7-8 hours day. The world is full of people who are willing to work that much, to get ahead though (especially in the beginning), you’re going to have to work more, a lot more in many cases to transform your vocation into a career for example (often 6-7 days a week for most).

In terms of your workouts, you have to be prepared to put the work in, not in more workouts hours, but more intensity over a sustained period of time.

Working out smart, working out with real purpose, working out with even bigger performances each week, make ALL the difference. When you come into the gym, give it everything and you need to let loose your talents and fulfil your potential every time!!

So whatever you want to get good at, your job, a career change you’ve always wanted, a business you’ve always dreamt of, a stronger mindset you always needed, a stronger more balanced body, recovering from serious injury, or whatever it may be, you need to put the work IN, say to yourself that you’re in it for the long haul NO MATTER what, you will start to LOVE all the hard work, and you WILL succeed because you’re prepared to work harder than ANYONE else!!!

Getting fired up will become a habit if you have deep down reasons why you want to create real long lasting change, and prove it to yourself that you can be the incredible success you deserve to be!!!
