Firstly, I just want to apologise again for not being as active on here recently. There’s been a lot going on behind the scenes as I’ve been working on improving and scaling the business moving forward. As mentioned previously, I’ve been considering closing this Skool page—and after giving it some thought, I’ve decided to move everything over to a private Facebook group instead. I feel this will be a much more convenient and engaging platform for everyone. The new group will be built over the weekend, and from Monday onwards, we’ll be posting daily content and making it far more active than this page has been. Inside the group, you can expect: • Educational content • Recipe ideas • Training tutorials • Open discussions • Plus input and ideas from you all This will be a much more interactive space where we can all get involved and build a stronger community together. This Skool page will officially close on 1st May. I’ll share the link to the new Facebook group here as soon as it’s ready—really looking forward to seeing you all over there and getting things moving properly again. Thanks again for your support 🙌 Have a nice weekend!

Out this morning getting my fasted cardio in and I’ll be honest… since getting back from Mexico it’s been a bit hit and miss. But that’s life, we reset and go again 👊 A question I get a lot is… when is actually the best time to do cardio? Truth is, there isn’t a “perfect” time. It depends more on what you can stay consistent with rather than chasing the “optimal” setup. Fasted cardio (first thing in the morning before food) is great for routine. It gets it done early, clears your head, and sets the tone for the day. Some people feel it helps with fat loss, but in reality the difference is minimal compared to your overall daily calories. The biggest win here is discipline and consistency. Post-workout cardio is also a solid option. You’re already in the gym, body is warm, and it can help you push a bit harder or just tick it off without needing another session later. You can even split it up across the day with steps, walks, or shorter sessions. It all counts. The key thing to understand is this… fat loss comes from being in a calorie deficit over time. Cardio is just a tool to help create that deficit. So instead of worrying about the “best” time, focus on this: what time can you realistically stick to week in, week out? That’s your best time. Get it done when you can, stay consistent, and the results will follow 👊

Q&A DAY TODAY — so fire away your questions… This is your opportunity to ask me anything at all related to: • Diet & nutrition 🍽️ • Training & building muscle 🏋️‍♂️ • Fat loss 🔥 • Cardio & step targets 🚶‍♂️ • Supplements 💊 • Motivation & consistency 🧠 • Plateaus & progress stalls • Or anything you’re struggling with right now Remember… There is no such thing as a stupid question. If you’re thinking it, chances are someone else is too. The more questions you ask, the more you learn… and the better your results will be. My job is to give you clarity, direction, and confidence moving forward. So don’t be shy — drop your question below and I’ll personally reply to every single one today. Let’s keep pushing forward and building momentum 💪 Coach Simon

This morning we took a new approach with Rav’s chest training. The goal now is to increase volume, improve strength, and really focus on bringing his chest up. Instead of cramming loads of exercises in, we slowed things down and focused on quality over quantity. We only completed 4 exercises in a 70-minute session, but the intensity was on another level, with a big focus on time under tension. We started with heavy incline dumbbell press. I thought the 25s might finish him off, but he proved me wrong and hit a huge personal best with the 32s. He completed 4 sets, first set for 10 reps, then 12, 12, and pushed to failure at 8 on the last set. That’s where real progress happens, pushing past previous limits. The big one today was the incline cable flys. Here we focused heavily on time under tension. Rav would rep for 5, then hold and squeeze at the top before lowering the weight slowly under full control, keeping the chest working the entire time. No resting at the bottom, straight back into the next rep. This creates constant tension through the muscle and the chest was fully pumped by the end. Time under tension is a powerful tool for building muscle and strength because it keeps the muscle fibres working for longer. This increases muscle fibre recruitment, improves mind-muscle connection, and creates more mechanical stress within the muscle, which is one of the key drivers for muscle growth. It also removes momentum and forces the muscle to do the work, rather than relying on speed or ego. Over time, this leads to better muscle development, improved control, and increased strength. This is how we’re going to bring Rav’s chest up to the next level. Rav – I’d love you to comment below with your thoughts on the session, how it felt during, and how you’re feeling now afterwards.
