Where to start

Hi! Welcome to my first ever blog post. My names Steven and I’ve decided to do this to show what realistic results can be achieved for the average person, because that’s me.

I’m a 39 year old husband, father of 2 and work full time. We live on our own small holding with dogs, sheep, chickens, horses, geese, and ducks, so when it comes to doing any form of exercise it’s seems there is no time, right? …….WRONG.

I started going to the gym 9 years ago and have always been an on and off type of guy, getting what I thought was a reasonable physique then binning the gym off until I looked like shit again. This was my routine for years until late last year when I suddenly realised I’m closing in on 40, so it’s about time I got myself together and do something about it.

I did what everyone does and scrolled through Instagram, YouTube and endless pictures and workouts on the internet. After hours of getting nowhere I realised one thing, all the guys and girls on there are perfect, not a bit of fat, love handle or stretch mark in sight 😀.

For most regular people these “perfect” body’s are unrealistic, but are what many of us ( including me ) think we can achieve by going to the gym 3 times a week. Well basically we can’t. What we can do is a few changes to our everyday lives and achieve results.

I’ve been living this new lifestyle for about 10 weeks now and have never had results like this before. I feel fitter, stronger, and healthier than ever. I can even see an abdominal for the first time in my life 👍

I’m doing this all naturally, no drugs, no enhancements and no magic pills. Just hard work, a good menu plan and right frame of mind. Oh and 45 minutes a week on the sunbeds 😎

Hopefully blogging about my fitness journey to 40 will keep me motivated, not that I need it at the moment, and maybe help others get up off the couch, or off the phone and get themselves some realistic results.
