The Internet is filled with pseudo-experts. They mask their shortcomings as coaches with Instagram filters, steroids, and thirst traps, all the while pretending to be experts.

There are three main ways to put together a diet: Following a overarching set of principles or rules Following a meal plan or using a food system Tracking and counting macros or calories And each has varying levels of success and failure.

Empathy and authority. The two most powerful forces in coaching. Empathy is about understanding and compassion. Authority is about respect and earned trust. Sadly, this isn’t taught in personal training school, and very few trainers ever get the memo. A coach with empathy means they ‘get you’. They understand your situation, and you’re not just som…

In my very first bodybuilding competition back in 2004, I came last. At the time, as a 20-year-old kid, it was the worst thing that ever happened to me.

In life, we often find ourselves tethered to labels and expectations that were placed upon us during our formative years. These labels can become so ingrained that we seldom question them.
