Some call it an identity crisis. I call it balance 😂🤘

Bit of heavy music, a little cardio, building businesses, lifting heavy s**t and being fit AF.

Oh, and lifting up the people around me while I'm at it ❤️

Not everyone's cup of tea, and that's cool.

Life's too short to fit into someone else's idea of who you should be.

Work hard. Train hard. Love hard. Be unapologetically you.

And never, EVER, grow out of your punk rock phase. 🤘😂

Building a bigger, stronger back? Give the close-grip MAG pulldown a crack 💪

One of my favourite variations for getting some quality lat work in.

The angled grip feels super natural, takes some of the awkwardness out of your wrist positioning and lets you focus on what actually matters… pulling with your back.

A few things to remember 👇

✅ Chest up, slight lean back
✅ Drive those elbows down towards your hips
✅ Control the eccentric (don't just let the weight fly back up)
✅ Get a good stretch at the top

And boys, leave the ego at the door 😂

If you're swinging your whole body to move the weight, you're probably missing the point.

Less momentum, more tension. That's how we grow. 📈

Give these a crack next back day!

It's big... very big.

It's new.

It has a lot of equipment.

It's worth checking out.

Did I mention it's big?

4 x second places 🥈 But today was about so much more than medals.

I’m just so bloody proud of this woman.

Having now watched Tenille go through a comp prep for the second time, I know how much these few minutes on stage don’t show. The months of work. The early mornings. The hunger. The fatigue. The days where your body hurts, your head gets loud, and you still have to find a way to keep going any way.

The physical transformation is impressive, but it’s the mental grit required to get through this process that I’m most proud of. She committed to the goal, trusted the process and kept putting one foot in front of the other when things got fu***ng hard.

Being able to coach her through it all has been pretty special. But when the coach hat comes off, I’m even prouder to be the bloke who gets to stand beside her through life.

My client. My best mate. My wife. My PIC forever. ❤️

I know exactly what went into getting you onto that stage today, and I hope you’re as proud of yourself as I am of you.

Love you endlessly, Tenille TJ Janicki .

Now go eat some fu***ng food 😂❤️ 🍔

Just out here trying to work out whether everyone got this fit naturally or I missed a memo somewhere 😂

HYROX is chaos.

Fast people.
Strong people.
People built like they were assembled in a lab.

I genuinely wonder if there will there ever be a natty-only division?

Asking for a mate.

Progress doesn’t always look like a perfectly straight line down.

Sometimes it’s a big drop.

Sometimes it’s slow.

Sometimes the scale barely moves while you’re building better habits, getting stronger and learning how to actually live this way.

That’s why context matters.

Two people can have completely different looking graphs and both be making progress because they’re at completely different stages of the journey.

But there’s one thing they all have in common…

They started.

They tracked the data.

And they gave themselves something to actually learn from and improve.

You can’t measure progress on a journey you never begin.

You don’t have to strength train.

You also don’t have to service your car.

But ignoring basic maintenance tends to catch up with you eventually.

A bit of strength work now can mean more muscle, stronger bones, better function and a body that holds up better later.

Not flashy.

Just useful.

30+ clips probably says it better than I could.

The energy.
The suffering.
The finish line.
The questionable decisions in between.

is a very specific kind of chaos.

And yeah…

BTW Disciple is hot.

People usually see the end result.

The comp photo.
The business.
The launch.
The progress.

They don’t see the struggles behind it.

The days where you question whether you’re actually good enough to pull it off.

The lack of support.

The moments where quitting would’ve been a hell of a lot easier than continuing.

Bodybuilding taught me a lot about that.

And launching has probably taught me even more.

Most things worth building look messy while you’re in the middle of them.

Then eventually, when it works out, people call it luck.

They just didn’t see the part where you kept going when there was nothing to celebrate yet.
