“Why did I join Built to Last? It feels like a very long time ago now. It was around four and a half years ago, I believe. I feel like anyone joining the program is joining from a place of wanting to change. I think I was over 16, so I feel like my food choices were poor. My drinks choices were probably even worse.
I was really inconsistent with my training. While probably non existent, probably one, two sessions a week. Nothing was changing just because I didn’t have the structure and the planning in place that I do now. I did my first transformation last July, which I was really pleased with where I got to. I really felt I could build a really strong base, especially in my legs and my knee leading up to my ACL operation in December.
I’d done a lot of hard work on strengthening and that really helped me then push on the months after into more recovery, which I underestimated a little bit. The first thing I actually thought I was going to do a HYROX in six months and yeah, I was miles off it, but the program I managed to learn about my recovery, the importance of sleep, the importance of my nutrition.
So it was all a learning curve really and how much of an important part of the jigsaw they actually are into having a strong recovery. Allowing me then to when I was back in the gym after 10 weeks to really push on, tick through my physios. My sessions and leading up to my latest transformation, which I feel like I’ve got into the best shape of my life in to live a life with more energy, more happiness, clearer mindset.
It always helps with work and decision making. And the days that are tough, you’ve just got to get it done and and get your sessions done. And it always helps with having a clearer mindset come the end of it, as you never regret a session. So yeah, I would feel like anyone that is feeling the same and lowering energy to take action now as it would be one of the best decisions you’ll ever make.”
