Coaching Insight: Special Edition - Inspiration For Busy Personal Trainers

Gavin Cusack - Personal Trainer - Fat Loss

"So, WHY 12 weeks online coaching? In short… I put on a few kgs over the Christmas period. Primarily I wanted to get rid of it. I wanted accountability. Simple. Did I succeed? I’d say so.

We could’ve made some dietary manipulations in the lead up to this after photo to have me looking sharper, dryer etc etc. But…why? Its not my agenda. I have no desire be a physique competitor. Never will. This is REAL life. No refeeds, reverse dieting or restrictions. Just every day me.

Training Protocol
3 sessions per week.
Lower/Push/Pull.

Nutritional Protocol
Slight Calorie Deficit ‘Eat like an adult’ #2ez

Starting weight: 84.5kg
End weight: 81kg.
Bodyfat: 15.8% – 10.8%

I’m the strongest I’ve ever been.

But this was more than just losing a bit of fat for me…

What did I learn? A LOT! My whole health and fitness/gym floor paradigm shifted entirely. From going into this wanting to lose body fat and hit some ‘bench numbers’ to now, simply aiming to be the healthiest and fittest version of ME. If I hit some numbers along the way…meh, all good and well.

Going forward I’ll be training safer, smarter, harder and as a by-product of that, I’ll continue to see positive change. I’m sure of that.

This brand new mindset and shift in my way of thinking regarding training was derived within this 12 week window, there’s no question. It’s all down to Paddy. And it wasn’t all through speaking to him directly either. Add to that, the Triage Method podcast. Then ‘The Militia’ on top of that. The quality of the content in a variety of open conversations with Paddy, Gary and the other members really struck a chord at times, hit home and has made me truly realise what is actually important in this life. Being healthy, aiming for longevity… I want to be a 55 year old who can out-run and then climb a tree to escape an onrushing cow, bend over effortlessly and pick up a fork from the floor, lift my wife into the air on our wedding day, play with my future kids…and theirs. I could go on…

This wasn’t just a 12 week program. It was so much more."
