So this is gonna be a fairly hard hitting story

For me not for you

So enjoy a vulnerable trainer while you have one

See last night I’d a bit of a gorge with food

It happens every now and again

I eat really well and then I’ve one bit of naughty food (no biggie)

Usually it’s grand and I leave it at that

But

I have a crazy moment where I cannot stop

I eat everything

In 30mins last night I ate a crunchie, a large pizza, a pack of chewits, a bag of rancheros and a wispa

^ bet you won’t get many trainers admitting that ^

It’s like a switch tripped and I cracked up

I wasn’t even full either

Dunno why I ate it (I’d genuinely preferred my chicken and spuds)

And I’ll even admit it

I felt like shit after

All emotional’n’stuff

^ even tho I’ve thought 100’s of peeps not to be upset/obsessed about food

Felt like my abs disappeared before me and I was the Michelin man

Real proper crazy head games

Completely stupid I know

Now I’m fine today

I’d a killer session with the boys at 6am (usual training time!)

but it sucks how I can let my head get that out of control about a few naughty foods

I know that gorge wasn’t gonna kill or ruin my body but I did ‘think’ it for a brief time

I genuinely believe fad diets like the clean 9 detox BS and the big push on ‘paleo’ are to blame

Too much pressure on people

Too many head games

Trying to be ultra good and then fall off the wagon crying the week after (I wasn’t crying by the way)

And what’s worse is the dudes pushing these diets are even worse for breakouts

One trainer in the know who is pushing paleo (for his own pocket) is well often seen skullin pints and smokin fags like a chimney

Not very paleo eh?

Yet he puts the pressure on everyone that you must eat paleo style or you’ll never achieve a decent shape or be happy (bullshit by the way)

So much for a trainer making a positive effect on people

—————

All in all you should be able to enjoy your food and your training

I should be able to enjoy a pizza (99% of the time I do) and be able to stop at that

I shouldn’t feel the need to feel bad or for my abs to magically disappear (I train too hard for that to happen)

Nor should I feel the need to gorge uncontrollably

its pretty much why we’ve set up Results

So we can have an awesome atmosphere where you train hard and leave your stress at the door

where your not given an unrealistic diet

or condoned to death if you eat a doughnut

We all have slip ups and shitty moments

Move on (like I have now) and enjoy the day ahead

– Keep calm and train at Results –
