Empowerment starts with you first. An AMAZING transformation here! Seeing progress is such a rewarding feeling. Plant the seed of who and what you want to accomplish today with a genuine intention. Follow it with small daily actions and let it blossom! #personaltrainers #personaltrainerjerseycity #personaltrainertribeca #physiquetransformation #howtoloseweight #howtolosefat #trainforlife #howtotransformyourbody #empowerment #bodypositive #positivebodyimage (at Jersey City, New Jersey) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bt-w56hHUra/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=lj4suw21t2x9

This is oh so #true , and certainly applies to the #weightloss , #fatloss , and #physiquetransformation process. 💯 • As a #fitness #coach , I come across people all the time who say: 🔽 • “I just have to be ‘X’ weight NOW!” ❌ • “I can’t even stand being in my own skin! I have to get this off now!” ❌ • “How long is this going to take? This is a lot of work to only being losing a couple pounds a week.” • And these people rarely get anywhere. They hate the way they look and feel and they hate what goes into changing their situation even more. And that, my friends, is a very bad combo. 💁‍♂️ • I understand wanting the prize, but thinking outside-in and convincing yourself you can only be happy when you’ve arrived is a recipe for failure. • For one to succeed in the #fatloss game , they have to think inside-out and become happy with covering a few feet in front of them every day. They must become damn near obsessed with the daily process goals and not keep looking up at the pinnacle and asking themselves “however am I ever going to get there?” 😟 • One has to do the right stuff one day at a time-what’s necessary-and at the end of each day check the box as a #win and feel proud. And then get up again the next day and do it again. Eventually, one covers more and more ground and the pinnacle is well within sight. https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsbr1i5F59E/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=p20dgwazo4hd

If you know anything about me: you know that, as it relates to my profession, I do not offer unsolicited advice. If it isn't requested... It stays buried in my brain. I bite my tongue... and respect the space and journey of others. 9 weeks ago... my youngest little brother, who up that point was wholly self-trained, decided to ask for my direction to change his body. He agreed to listen to whatever I asked him to do... regardless of how counterintuitive, or silly, or difficult. He agreed to not sabotage the program: Not to add or subtract. I'd more or less watched him train the past year without adding my opinion... outside of little things to keep him safe. I knew relinquishing control would be hard. He committed. Wholly. He watched. He listened. He learned. He adjusted his posture As directed. Added prehab as directed. Undertrained (- yea... counter-intuitive) where requested. Took days off where instructed. Ate. He respected his body, and the process. And today he took his shirt off. Holy fucking Shit. Well done, little brother. Much love. Watch this space. He's far from finished. #physiqueTransformation #DahfellaINstgeorge #melaninPoppin #blackBoyJoy #strongnotskinny #personalTraining #personalTrainer #getNarked #GetSexyOrDieTraining #teamApolloFitnessBds #bodyByNarq #bodyByNark #apolloFitnessBarbados #coretraining #atypicalTraining #squatsNotShots #wellness (at Apollo Fitness Barbados) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrGTdaNAHw7/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=19gqbddij0zuj

So... time for a vulnerable post. This pic collage is me. It isn't a #physiquetransformation or "hey... try my program" post. Naw... this is a confession post... a "I'm human" post. June 2018... ill... both mentally and physically. Full body inflammation, joint and muscle pain 24/7. Did blood work... nothing. No answers. It hurt to train. It hurt not to train. I ate my daughter's snack. #chronicDepression. Anxiety attacks. I crashed completely... in every area of life except in my business, and as a father. My body reflected it. Men don't have many outlets to address emotions. No real safe spaces. When we start to fall apart... society says "man up". What. The. Actual. Fuck. Anyway... September 22nd. Anxiety is better. Pain is mostly gone. Had surgery. Almost fully healed. Mind is a better place. ...and my body reflects that. All of that to say - the same things i tell my clients: * don't worry about the outside, the scale etc. Fix what's inside and the outside will reflect that. * nothing happens before we are mentally ready (- which is why i never force my opinions or ideals onto my clients). Aim for improving your relationship with self, and the rest will follow. I've dealt with chronic depression my entire life. Quantifying this journey, i know there will always be ups and downs. My goal is to learn from them... transparently.
