77 of us are currently doing this intense 16-week body transformation challenge. It started yesterday and I’m already sore.

Shout out to the any members of the project who see this post. We can do this!
This was the last time I didn’t own a phone. I was working/living in Asia in 2009 /2010 and had a simpler life than I enjoy today.

Over the last 10 years I’ve been living in London and building my businesses and as a result have been on my phone far too much...as probably you have too I’m guessing?

So this year I’ve tried to make some changes to ease this addiction to my phone… - such as unfollowing everyone on insta, focusing on fully automated marketing things for my work, and having very few apps on my phone.

2 years ago i also decided to stop upgrading my iphone all the time.. technology is amazing but I don’t want to be a slave to it. My plan is to go backwards. So when this phone breaks I’ll get a less advanced one and eventually I’ll be back on Nokia 3210 - which is the first mobile phone I owned 20 or so years ago. - that’s my plan anyway!

Another thing that has helped me use my phone (and laptop/tv) far less is by tracking my usage for a week. I added up all the hours and it was embarrassing. You should try it too. It’s horrifying 🤫

When it comes to wellness - the relationship we have with technology is an important one to consider. Staying connected and up-to-date isn’t as necessary as we’re sold to believe!

6 ways to have a better body

1. Define what ā€˜better’ means to you.

2. We don’t need to have excess fat. Yes some sports and some people/cultures value it, but generally speaking most of us are more wobbly than we really want to be. Accepting that you want to change is far more positive than being unhappy and pretending to be body positive

3. Look at your body in different ways.. what is it? a vehicle for your brain? An integral part of your identity, something to hang clothes off.. something that holds you back, a thing that gives you pleasure.? The relationship with your body is dictated by how you see it. As there is no universal right or wrong perspective… why not spend some time thinking and mentally explore a multitude of different perspectives until one resonates and truly serves you.

4. You show a dog love by giving him a routine, healthy food (in both type, variety and quantity) regular fun exercise and attention. Most of us treat our bodies considerably worse than we would ever treat a pet. Show your body love and it will show you love right back.

- tips 5 & 6 in comments.
5 practical ways to stop hating & start loving your body.

1. Take a yin/yang approach. Extreme ambition.. (e.g when you are training very hard & eating perfectly) and extreme acceptance (when you are trying to convince yourself that you love your body no matter, but your body’s a mess) are both flawed. A middle path where you balance ambition with acceptance is a probably a better approach to lasting body confidence. (I don’t know any body builder or body positivity activist who actually really loves their body). When trying to find a solution - the middle way is usually the best path.

2. Think more. Absurdism (& existentialism) remind us that life is pretty silly. And as long as you don’t fall down a nilhist whole, it’ll help you to stop worrying about such trivial things as your waist size or the definition of your posterior deltoids

3. Appreciate the absolute wonder of the human body. Learn about how muscles literally build themselves when put under stress, how our brains can learn new skills, languages and ideas, how we stop bleeding, fight off infections… the list is endless. The more you learn about the body the more in awe you’ll feel.. and as a consequence the more grateful you’ll be.

4. Move more.. life is more fun when you feel more connected in mind & body.. yeah you can get this from weights I guess.. but for most of us it’s easier, more fun and functionally superior to attain this mind-body connection through sports, play, dance and martial arts. We are all athletes whether we realise it or not. (See the video on my homepage on how to live an athletic life)

5. Be careful about the messages you allow into your brain and choose your teachers wisely.. as a rule of thumb: If you want fitness advice I would stick to the people who want to coach and avoid those using coaching as springboard to another career…. to save time just unfollow any fitness coach with CEO in their bio, a promo code to protein shakes, an only fans account, or makes sweeping judgments about other coaches 😜

In conclusion; If you hate your body please don’t lose hope.. you CAN dramatically improve the relationship with food, with exercise and with your self.ā¤ļø

The 10 benefits of hanging

1. When tumbling down a woodland cliff towards a pit of crocodiles - you can save your life by grabbing on to a branch using your newly developed grip

2. If you hang out in those Berlin fetish clubs where middle-aged businessmen drink absinthe, wear full-body latex and pretend to be an animals all night - rather than crawling around pretending to be a cat or dog, you’ll be able to add monkey to your repertoire. This goes down a treat (apparently) #functionaltraining

3. Picture this: During the next London volcano, you’re on the tube and the floor starts melting due to all the hot lava. Well now you’ll be fully able to hang on the passenger rail with one hand and save a child with the other. #savinglivesswhilegettingthepump

4. Want to catch a ride with an eagle? (or hawk) you can now just jump up into the sky (pro tip: use a rebounder) and grab one of the fuckers around the beak. Beats dressing up as giant injured mouse and waiting for one to grab you.

5. As a child in 80’s manchester, when I wasn’t down the coal pit making a shilling a day - I’d often travel around the Canals by ā€˜Swan-taxi’ this is when you are underwater with a 2 foot long breathing tube (made from 5 McDonald’s straws + bluetack) and with your hands raised up.. I’d catch the feet of Swans and they’d drag me to where I needed to go.. it was more efficient than using a horse and cart. Even though this mode of transport isn’t as popular now, please support all the out of work #swantaxis & do your hangs to make longer journies.

6. As tendons in your fingers get stronger: hanging is perfect training for the annual New Orleans 72hour banjo-athon.

7. Hanging allows you to look fit like me (see photo) when in no way was i just knackered from doing 6 shitty pull ups. #fakenews

8. It makes you happy. I for one hate my life when I’m not hanging. #science

9. Walking around with your arms permanently up is the best way of attracting a mate. Hanging will develop this stance - thus you’ll get laid more.

10. Hanging is a political statement. Not sure what the statement is. But it’s political, it’s on Instagram and if you don’t join in you’ll be judged.
As it’s my birthday tomorrow (45) I thought I’d share my most important life lessons. This is a very raw and personal post.

1. Don’t wank off strangers in exchange for a pack of Maltesers. - if this is a tricky habit to break, maybe just do it on weekends. Otherwise after 300-400 times you’ll start to feel a bit cheap - just talking from experience here.

2. Exercise is dangerous. Lifting anything over 3kg will bulk you up.. and you’ll be legally required to buy protein shakes, creatine, Tren, HGH and get spray tans every 25 mins. -

3. Never look a monkey in the eye, staple a Vegan to an antelope or discuss politics with a tiger… and never even consider playing poker with Napalise Badgers (... they always cheat). I travel a lot, so insights like this you kinda just pick up over time.

4. When eating vegetables, try to mostly aim for the mouth. Don’t want to get too technical/geeky to non-nutritionists here, but to cut a long story short, you’ll get more nutrients in your system via the mouth rather than squishing broccoli up your bum #science

5. Finally this is more of a dream than a tip. You see, the thing is I absolutely love comparing myself to others. I also desperately want to get rid of my long attention span and spend less time with friends. I just pray that one day someone invents something to help me achieve this dreams.

So there are the key lessons and my dream - all learned from my 45 years on this planet. I do hope they helped. Let me know.
Hi. So I’m not sure what caption to write today - so many choices!…

1. ā€œHere’s me on a holiday l went on onceā€.

2. ā€œI’m bored, give me attentionā€.

3. ā€œHi guys. Let’s normalise headbands.ā€

4. Or maybe ….- ā€œhey tribe, let be real. Yes I look hot as fuck but actually I was depressed and dealing with toxic relationships with narcissists. The only thing that got me through it were my boohoo flip flops. Use flipflopDan to get 20% offā€ … and earn me a 10% commission as I’m skint and needy and will use any emotional tactic to become a more popular ā€˜Infulencer’ - sorry that was so 2018, I mean ā€˜content creator’.

5. Or maybe a cute quote about travel from someone old I never heard of with a #wanderlust hashtag. I think it’s ā€œa 1000 single steps begins when you journey a mile so follow your heart and leave a passionate footprintā€ I think that’s it. Will check Pinterest.

6. ā€œI feel so sad and look so uglyā€ (this seems the best caption for likes. - The trick nowadays is to be a victim.. Obviously being a straight white guy is great in real life and I don’t feel sad or victimised at all… If only I was a disabled anxious lesbian trans Black woman with childhood trauma who could shuffle dance.. I’d have way more fans on Tiktok by now šŸ˜”

7. How about: ā€œOMG guys can we just talk about this view for a minute. I Mean WTF I feel so #blessed and #gratefulā€ - I don’t quite understand the meaning of those hashtags.. but I find when use them in my caption I can show you how much better my life is than yours without you hating mešŸ‘šŸ»

8. The #entrepreneur flex: … ā€œI invest in #nft and and made $300mil before I was 22 that’s why I live on a beach and I’m legit even though I’m now desperate for you to buy my crap ebook for Ā£19.97 that shares my investments secrets - click link & go into my funnel. šŸš€ā€

9. Or.. ā€œHere’s also what men into fitness look likeā€ - just making a very subtle point to no particular activewear company at all that you don’t need to be juiced up out of your eyeballs as a man to represent fitness in 2022.

10.
Happy Christmas.
So I just finished with my last private client before Xmas.. and she did her very first full press up - yay! Totally made my morning:) and now am about to release a couple of new podcast episodes and then I’m in chill mode.

Tomorrow.. I will be drinking far too much champagne while attempting to cook. My evening will mostly consist of chocolate, TV, Wine and restraining from sending career-ending tweets. I haven’t drank in 20 months so I know Boxing Day will be a sofa day - watching films and eating minstrels while nursing a hangover from hell.

Will I train?.. yeah probably. As training isn’t an obligation or job.. it’s fun for me. So I’ll probably do my standard 10k loop along the river when I wake up tomorrow and do some boxing Sunday night.

Whatever you do over Xmas, -please try and have fun, be safe and enjoy it. I have a lot of friends and family who are badly effected by the pandemic this Christmas, from recently losing loved ones to being isolated away from family due to a test result. So my thoughts are with those who are having a less than wonderful time tomorrow. ā¤ļø

I’d also like to wish a happy Christmas to my collegues, my podcast guests, our and customers, my mentorees & private clients. I’ve been 100% online for nearly 2 years now and even though our retreat business is ā€˜having a shocker’ according to my accountant!..luckily we do lots of other things - so we’ve been able to survive this pandemic as an organisation and even grow a little bit too.

Friends of mine who run their own gyms/studios in LA, New York, Sydney & London have had a much tougher time than me.. so please give your local gym support by signing up to their streaming classes, buying their ebooks, share their Instagram posts etc…. The UK fitness industry needs help right now.. and rather than wishing for government grants, VAT reductions, business rate freezes and other such top-down support, the best way we can really help is a bottom up approach. So please support your local gym/studio this winter in any way you can.

This week I talk to about drop sets and about Xmas presents.

- if you like strength training and normally do 3 sets of 10.. remember that’s only 1 approach.. and while it’s not terrible, there are several more effective approaches. ā€˜Drop sets’ are the next level up in difficulty..

As with many training protocols there are not universally accepted definitions for everything. For me I think a drop set is when you’re doing an exercise and maxing out then you lower the weight and keep on going…. and a compound set is when you change to a different exercise that works the same muscle groups.. (eg DB incline press followed by Pec flies)

In this article yahoo USA call my exercise combos a drop set but I would call them drop-compound sets. - also I grew up using the term ā€˜superset’ to signify working opposing muscle groups back to back.. eg bench press followed by pull ups... but I often hear superset being used to define what I think a compound set is.

Does it really matter! Well no.. but if you’re in this world of fitness, let me know your take on it.. I’m always happy to learn.

I also feature briefly in the this week too - sharing my recommended Xmas present. - I went for a kettlebell because everyone should have one. Strength training is one of key pillars of fitness. It becomes increasingly important to develop strength and power as we get older and a trusty kettlebell is a very safe & effective way of developing both. - my next 4-week group online bootcamp (starts jan 1st) requires a kettlebell.. so if you want to join me, now is the time to buy one.
