Age Gracefully
Last week I celebrated my 40th birthday. It wasn’t the celebration I had planned for a milestone birthday being in lockdown and all, however my wife, Simone, and family made it a special one.
It made me reflect on what I’d achieved in the past decade and start to think about what I could achieve this decade… Something I hadn’t yet thought of.
Aging is inevitable. But just because you hit 40, or 50, 60, 70, or 80 does not mean you need to accept a life of aches, pains, and gained weight.
It also doesn’t mean that you have to take your foot off the accelerator and cruise the rest of the way.
If you want to age well and continue doing the simple things in life without assistance you have to think about how you eat, move, sleep and breath.
The best part is, regardless of how old you are, it applies to you. Because we all get older.
Life is Tough, But You Must Be Tougher
It’s true. Starting a fitness plan will lead you on THE MOST POWERFUL personal development journey ever.
One day you’re facing big challenges. The next day you’re crushing them.. And winning everything. Then a month later… you’re tackling the next challenge, like LOCKDOWN to continue to the next level. Again and again and again. This is not only in your fitness journey but also in your career path and parenting.
Embrace it all. Because it doesn’t get easier the further you progress. The problems and challenges get bigger, but you get the opportunity to continue growing stronger and more powerful with every turn.
Sounds fun? I believe there’s nothing better than the journey!
Keep growing and stay committed to your success!

Why Balance is essential for your Exercise Routine
Like anything you work towards in life, be it work related or health related, results often take time. It doesn’t happen overnight.
Thinking specifically about exercise and health, whilst some lose weight quicker than others, there’s one common trend that must be taken into consideration along the way. During the process and during the at times, “grind”.
What I’m referring to is the balance we adopt. Everyone’s lives are different. Whilst some are heavily involved socially and/or with family, or have a time-demanding hobby, others may be more available with time outside of work. But if we focus too heavily on one thing – be it our time in the gym, or time away from it – the balance will affect our different states of health.
We all aim to be physically healthy, but what’s often neglected is our mental health.
Repetitively doing the same thing can often cause resentment. So if we relate that to fitness, ask yourself a few simple questions:
When was the last time you updated your workout program?
When was the last time you tried a new exercise you’d never done before?
When was the last time you asked someone for advice?
