Is your body in the shape you want it to be?

Do you feel free to wear whatever you’d like without needing to cover up?

If not, then I’ve got a step-by-step plan to get you into your best body ever…

Step #1: Program Your Mind
Your mindset is either pushing you forward or holding you back

Until you work on whats between the ears you will more than likely do things to derail you than help you

Protect your mind from any negative self talk. Reject anything negative immediately!

Everyday visualize yourself at your best body. Imagine how it feels and what it can do

Re-program your mind to think of yourself as fit, athletic, in shape

Change your belief that getting the body you want is hard or difficult. Instead think what would it look like if it were easy.

Dig deep into your habits, patterns and behaviors

Youll find that they are either helping you or holding you back

Feel like your stuck or in a rut


Best Body Ever Step #2: Conquer your Fear
Whether we like it or not change is inevitable

Change makes us nervous

even if it is a change for the good

Change turns the known to the unknown

We're hesitant to change for the fear of the unknown...

Will what i am doing work?

What if I try and it doesnt work out ?

Until you decide to take the leap, your efforts will be blocked by self-sabotage

There are three specific beliefs that you must instill

Believe that something MUST change.

You can’t be shady about it.

You can’t be considering it.

You can’t even be pretty sure about it.

You’ve got to go ALL IN.

Believe that YOU must change it.

Take responsibility and expect to lose weight, period

You may have tried and failed in the past but that doesn't matter

Believe you CAN lose the weight

You CAN get your Best Body Ever

People can be there to support you, cheer you on, provide guidance but at the end the day you have to #dowork

You have to WANT to lose the weight

Once you own up to the fact that you are in control that you can, you’ll be unstoppable.

When it comes to looking, feeling or performing better a lot of people make a change in their health and fitness by first working out

There are endless amounts of FREE resources online but NONE of them first address the hardest change...

Your MINDSET...

So before you start thinking about sets and reps 1st address whats up stairs

Best Body Ever Step #3: Lose Your Excuses

Your excuses for being out-of-shape are getting old.

Making an excuse is the easy way out

It requires no effort


Zero responsibility


Action is the only way


Your excuses are ruining your life


Level up and expect more from yourself

Dont lose focus as to why you #dowork

Write it down. Make a list. Speak it. All on days that end in Y

You have two things in life: excuses or results.
Which do you want?

Over the Past 10 years I've coached people with different back grounds, different situations, and different resources

The ones who have made the most change are the one's who chosen to take ACTION

Not let things get in their way

Turning any negative into a positive

Moving forward regardless

This step is my favorite to witness because its where people let go and unleash their inner potential

So you decide

Make excuses or see Results

Be the victim or be the Victor

you DO have a choice...

Decide you want to do something different


Best Body Ever Step #4: Go ALL IN


How many times have you tried to lose weight, only to give up a week or two later?

We live in a commitment-phobic world

It’s no wonder that you continue to abandon your goals.

If you truly want to lose weight

then you must commitment to the process

Even when it gets tough

Don’t give up until your goal has been achieved.

Plan to work ON your life and not IN your life

Scheduling and planning important tasks to move you forward with your health and fitness

Make an appointment with yourself each day to support your goal

Treat working out with the same importance as a work meeting

Now just do it

Most people take multiple attempt to get their best body

Reason being is when faced with being inconvenienced, uncomfortable or having to make sacrifice's they jump ship on their commitments to themselves
wondering why they cant succeed

But in actuality only till they realize that going ALL IN on what they want can they achieve their goal

Commitment takes desire, dedication, grit, perseverance and trust in the process

Its what it takes its what is required

because half ass efforts equals half ass results

So stop stopping and commit

Best Body Ever Step #5: Control Your Diet
When it comes to your goals...If you consistently each crap food, then you'll be facing an uphill battle

To put it bluntly, you need to stop eating shit and eat like an adult

Processed foods, refined sugar and high fructose corn syrup do not belong in your diet

They can pretty much be found anywhere

They're cheap, filling and taste delicious but...

are full of empty calories and chemicals that make you sick

Instead, stick to real whole foods like lean meats, vegetables, whole grains, nuts and fruits.

Eat lean protein and carbs from plants and whole grains.

Vegetables, the greener the better and in variety of colors

These foods are loaded with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fiber and have less calories than processed foods

So eat them regularly and snack on them instead of packaged stuff you buy

Nutrition is 80% of how you look and feel

Im sure you've heard this before...

You cannot out work a bad diet

Simply by switching out certain foods and/or cleaning up what your eating you will see a huge change in your body

eating pop tarts, drinking wine, and dinosaur shaped chicken wont help you get your best body ever...

Im not saying you need to weigh and measure your food or count every single calorie that goes into your mouth

Theres a good chance that you already know what to do when it comes to nutrition

Dont complicate it

Eat real food 80-90% of the time, dont eat too much and if you're still hungry....eat more veggies

Best Body Ever Step #6: Utilize Your Patience
Changing body composition takes time

Whether its fat to fit, average to jacked

it wont happen overnight

Remember it took time to put the weight on, so it will take time to take the weight off.

When your patience is low or when you hit a plateau, try the following:

Review your goal.

Is it specific and measurable?

Is it broken down to small and attainable benchmarks?

When it gets tough think with the end in mind

Make each workout a new experience.

Challenge yourself with different weights, new movements and vary your intensity.

Remember its not about having one great workout

Its about consistently training and eating right, plain and simple

To get your best body ever it will take time

There will be times when you question why your doing this

you will doubt the path you are on

But anything worth having will take time

#DOWORK, be patient and trust the process

because when you achieve your best body ever the feeling of accomplishment will have made the journey well worth it

Best Body Ever Step #7: Build Your Support
People who exercise alone are less challenged, less accountable and are more likely to fail.

It makes sense, would you rush to the gym if no one is waiting for you?

Would you push yourself if no one was watching ?

Exercising solo can be the Achilles heel to achieving your goals

I suggest finding a workout partner who is in better shape than you

Better yet, work with me and let me coach you with guaranteed results

don’t waste your time, energy and effort on mistakes by doing it all yourself

I’ll be in your corner coaching you each step of the way

holding you accountable to workouts

giving you the daily dose of motivation and encouragement when you need it most.

Although, I am in the fitness industry and its what I do for a living I have a coaches

I have an online coach to help me with my lifting, to push me, hold me accountable and accelerate my results

I go to classes to surround myself with like minded people, to get motivated and be held accountable

I do this because If i dont I would hold it off to tomorrow, I would do whats convenient or whats comfortable, I would settle

You see, I am no different than you

I wouldn't preach this to you if I were not doing it myself

So that’s it. 7 Steps to your Best Body Ever

Hopefully you’ve not only been able to do a bit of a self-assessment as to where you stand today, but also where you can improve to move forward to having your Best Body Ever

if your looking to implement the 7 steps to your best body ever

With a coach that gives a damn

Who wants to help you with training, nutrition, mindset…

Will also support, coach you and hold you accountable

To Lose Fat, Feel Confident, and Be Stronger than you've ever been before

Drop me a line here and I'll get in touch.
