10KG DOWN — LOOKING BALI-READY BROTHER BLOGG!
He was the 124th man to lose 10kg or more in Better Body Academy
At 47 years young and with a coupla kids,
Lee had slipped into the dad-bod zone
Having seen Neil Burgess’ transformation,
𝐇𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐨𝐨𝐛𝐬 𝐡𝐢𝐦𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟!
With high cholesterol running in his family,
Lee was tipping in at 96kg
He and I are exactly the same height – 175cm
I sit at 84kg with some muscle so I had a fair idea where his ideal weight was…
With a little getaway to Bali planned in October,
It was time for Bloggee to go to work
𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭…
A simple plan,
And a man without an ego
Look at the change to the chest composition
The reduction in stubborn belly fat will have significantly lowered his heart attack risk
And those love handles are gonna be hard to grab now mate!
𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲’𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐝.
I love blokes like Lee!
Easy to deal with
And willing to trust the process.
A few more weeks to cut, and then were bringing the calories back up..
Proud of you my brother!!
SHOCKING! THIS IS WHAT 24KG DOWN LOOKS LIKE!
This is one of my favourite men
His name is Troy Smith
𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐅𝐔𝐂𝐊𝐈𝐍 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐄!
He’s been through a hell of a lot
Being in the emergency services,
It comes with the territory
And that usually ends up in one place,
A bad place…
I’m not going to go deep into the details
But what I will tell you is that Troy is winning the battle
Troy is slowly taking back control
Troy is a BRAVE MF
Troy believes in the process
Troy is willing to be imperfect
Troy is able to keep picking himself back up
And for this reason,
𝐓𝐫𝐨𝐲 𝐢𝐬 𝐃𝐎𝗪𝐍 𝟐𝟒𝐤𝐠 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲
And Troy knows the journey is a long one,
I want you to know how proud I am of you brother,
You’re an inspiration…
And if we lop the beard off,
I recon you’ll prove that Reverse Ageing is possible!
APPROACHING THE MAGIC 10KG MARK! BOOOOOM!
This is my man James Sceats
He’s a 48-year old, real estate agent and father
Jimmy will tell you straight up, he’s an A-grade procrastinator
𝐒𝐨, 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐩 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐨 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧 𝐁𝐁𝐀 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚 𝐛𝐢𝐠 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞…
With two young sons, his motivation was to keep up with them,
And be a solid role model leading them into adulthood
Now at 94.5kg and approaching 50 years,
He could take the mindset that he should just ‘𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘹 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘥-𝘣𝘰𝘥’
But when you know you’re being held back by your health,
You have a decision – Accept it or change it?
𝗪𝐞𝐥𝐥 𝐥𝐞𝐭’𝐬 𝐟𝐚𝐬𝐭-𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝…
James is already 7.5kg down
AND
His waist circumference has just bounced under the Australian recommendations of ‘𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘯 𝟿𝟺𝘤𝘮’
𝐇𝐞’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐚 ‘𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲’ 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐬𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐥𝐲 𝟗𝐜𝐦
But what I am most proud of,
Is the way James has taken his journey another level,
By taking on our advanced mindset program
He wants to be sure these new behaviours are ingrained,
And the old habits are killed off…
Put simply, I love the bloke…
He shows up like clock-work and is winning big time!
If you’re a procrastinator like Jimmy,
Maybe this is the post you’re looking for to kick your ass!
WHY FAT LOSS IS ONLY A STEPPING STONE
This is Steve Byron,
He’s a dad and a baseball Legend

What I love about Steve,
He just keeps it simple
He’s what I called a Grade A Client
Follows the plan to tee
Gets ridiculous results
Have you ever thought about what more you could do in life
If you weren’t held back by your dad-bod?
Maybe it’s time to get off the fence!
10 EMPOWERING WARRIOR TRANSFORMATIONS IN 10 DAYS
I’m going to finish off this run of women transformations with my favourite
𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐀𝐁𝐒𝐎𝐋𝐔𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐘 𝐛𝐢𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝
Not because it’s the most dramatic physical change,
But because I know the absolute mindset overhaul that has occurred here
Carly, now Coach Carly, came into BBA in April of 2021
She did it, probably to ‘𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨’
𝘛𝘰 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘧𝘦𝘦𝘭 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳
𝘛𝘰 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯,
My sister is a very self-deprecating person,
That would talk down her abilities and intelligence
She’d mask it in the typical Aussie way,
A bit of booze and a ‘𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘦𝘯𝘰𝘶𝘨𝘩’ approach

10 EMPOWERING WARRIOR TRANSFORMATIONS IN 10 DAYS
I’m releasing another CRACKING transformation today for the first time
A warrior woman, I’ve known for over 30 years
And who trusted BBA to help her transform
Jordana Featon is another lass with all the reasons to stay stuck
A mother of a 12-year old
A business owner
And she turns 40 this year
𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐍𝐎𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐌𝐄 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄?

She’s never stuck to anything like this before
She said ‘𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘣𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘥 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘪𝘤𝘦𝘴’

Her physical gains have been amazing
𝐒𝐡𝐞’𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐚 𝟏𝟏𝟎𝐤𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐭!
But Alex is not without her own self-doubts,
She HATES having photos taken of her
And posting this was as much about confronting the fear
As it was commending her on her transformation

Let’s kick start the new week with a KILLER transformation
It’s our Warrior Queen Kellie Brown
𝗪𝐡𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲!
Over a year in BBA has seen a radical change in Kel,
A woman that I have known for 20 years,
But not REALLY known at all
𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐬𝐡𝐞 𝐣𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐦,
And revealed her true self,
From crushing fear and anxiety
Which she tucked behind a mask of pretend self-confidence
To a liberated, inspiring and ‘𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘥𝘭𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧’ warrior
That has been a source of energy and can-do in BBA
You see, if you are so damn proud of who you are,

Without succumbing to the fear of scrutiny or judgement
And this aint just ‘The Kelly Show’
She’s supportive of all women who take this journey
She knows what to say to pick up a woman who is struggling,
Because she has been there and back
And knows that no one can steal your power
Without your permission…
I’m so proud of how this woman has transformed!

One of my favourite chats with her,
Was when she felt the slower speed of her results,
Was hard to justify against the time away from her family.
But I was quick to remind her of two things:
That she was not in a hurry to ‘get somewhere’ and that far more important than ‘weight loss’ is ‘healthy, sustainable weight maintenance’
That although the guilt she shared is understandable, that her family would always be the true beneficiary of her showing up as her best, vibrant, energetic self.

First up, Linda Janes
Linda joined BBA with her partner Ben Milby
And together, but separately, they committed to a period of focussing on themselves.
In all honesty, it took a lot of work.
Linda had reached the point where,
Her ‘should dos’ became ‘must dos’
𝗔𝗻𝗱 𝘀𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻.
Most importantly,
Linda really got involved in the women’s BBA community
She posted about her food,
Her training after the kids were in bed,
Her vulnerabilities,

𝗔𝗡𝗗 𝗦𝗧𝗜𝗟𝗟 𝗟𝗢𝗦𝗘 𝗪𝗘𝗜𝗚𝗛𝗧!
Linda then joined our Mindset Program,
Forging close-knit friendships with other women,
She became a leader inside of BBA
Women now look to her as inspiration
As she is a time-poor, working mum and wife,
𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗺𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗶𝗲𝗳𝘀.
I appreciate Linda so much,
For she adds energy, confidence and a beautiful radiance to our crew of Warrior Women
Here’s the thing,
When you join BBA, you don’t just get coaches.

He’s not been super strict,
But just focussed on being consistent.
Phase 1 is done,
And now it’s time to play the long game.
Shaun, I want to celebrate you Legend,

MARK’S DOWN 11KG + 20CM IN 4 MONTHS
It was a combination of lockdown, career and fatherhood,
That took Mark to a pre-transformation weight of 95kg
And when our health starts to slip,
It can be a pretty slippery slope.
Things can get out of control quickly,
And before you know it,
Your once flat belly is now ballooning.
You want to do something,
But you haven’t got the motivation
So, you stay stuck, saying
“𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘯𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬…”
𝗪𝐞𝐥𝐥, 𝟒 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬 𝐚𝐠𝐨,
“𝘕𝘦𝘹𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬” finally arrived and Bretto joined BBA
“𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸𝘯 𝘮𝘦 𝘢 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘢𝘵𝘦”
“𝘐 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘦𝘥 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘬𝘯𝘰𝘸 𝘐 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘱𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘯”
And with that,

And took out his Nokia 4210 and shot some “before photos”
I knew that all Mark needed was to get started.
Momentum is an incredible thing..
And before you know it,
𝐇𝐞’𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝟏𝟏𝐤𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟐𝟎𝐜𝐦 𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐮𝐭
The whole time, training at home
Mark’s always had an admirable work ethic and attitude,
It’s been lovely just seeing him turn that toward his own health
Super proud of you big boy!
Now bring on New Zealand Summer hey!

STEVE’S DOWN 21KG + 20CM IN 10 WEEKS
He wakes at 430am to commute to the city
He’s there until 430pm every day before commuting the 2 hours home

Well, when you been on the fence for 15 years,
Slowly accumulating the weight,
And you feel stuck,
It’s likely that your mindset is not in a place where you can do it all alone.
About 10 weeks ago,
Steve and I had a conversation that would ultimately change his life.
𝐇𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐩 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐁𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐀𝐜𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐲,
And literally that day,
The Great Shane Warne passed away…
To a man that idolised our Aussie hero,
Perhaps it was just that little push Steve needed to act now.
𝐈 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧, 𝐧𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝗪𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐒 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐜𝐤,
But we have to arrive at a point where we are ready.
And Steve was ready.
I label Steve a ‘𝘋𝘰𝘰𝘳 𝘈’ client
That’s a client that says ‘𝘊𝘰𝘢𝘤𝘩, 𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐’𝘭𝘭 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸 𝘪𝘵’
And that he did.
𝐅𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝 𝟏𝟎 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐬
𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐯𝐞’𝐬 𝐝𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝟐𝟏𝐊𝐆 + 𝟐𝟎𝐂𝐌
More importantly, it’s positively impacting him in all areas of his life
The podcast we just did blew my mind,
Such a humble, humble guy
That is like every other fella out there just making a living,
But now deciding at 40 years old,
It’s his turn to reclaim his health…

This is like a reverse pregnancy!
My man Nick Friend
He’s a SUPERB human,
The name “Friend” suits him well
𝐍𝐢𝐜𝐤 𝐢𝐬 𝟓𝟖 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝,
He mostly sits all day at work,
And that belly that he had was a BIG concern for his GP!
𝐎𝐧 𝐅𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟓𝐭𝐡, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟐,
He started his journey in Better Body Academy
At 101.9kg and 116cm around the belly
His goal was to get to 85kg and maintain it.
𝘋𝘪𝘥 𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘷𝘦 𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵?
Mmmm, I recon he had doubts,

This has happened in 3 months…
WOW!
Again, middle age man
Who was sick to FK of guessing
He got a simple plan,
He followed it…
And just look at the results
It’s a repeatable process
You’ve just got to be willing to follow it

Having ballooned out to 175kg,
Shaquai drew a line in the sand
And began his road back to good health,
And ultimately, an impending NRL debut
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐒𝐡𝐚𝐪’𝐬 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐁𝐁𝐀 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦

His goal of just “𝘉𝘦𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘮”
Getting to an ideal weight goal of “𝟷𝟷𝟶𝘬𝘨 𝘰𝘳 𝟷𝟷𝟻𝘬𝘨”
"𝘛𝘰 𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘳𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘳𝘰𝘭 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘮”
And a big one – “𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘮𝘺𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘧”
Although Shaq doubted himself,
I believed in him and his ability to change,

Our man is scheduled to make his NRL debut
Ironically at the Spiritual Home of BBA – The Central Coast
Man, I wish I could go see the brother in action.
I think it’s a great testament to a few things
Consistency over a long time
And a willingness to keep your eyes on the prize
Which leads to amazing things in your future.
𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫,
Now go out and make it rain!
COMMITTED, GROWING, AMBITIOUS — HE’S GOT EM IN SPADES!
I talked yesterday about how I mostly work with lads over 30
I showed you Damon Brady as an exception,
Today it’s Mr Brad Beever
Every now and then,
You come across someone that ‘𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯𝘴 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴’
When I first met Brad,
I could tell he was not your average kid,
Despite being only 22,
𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐝’𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧.
A great career in the making,
Trains at Jui Jitsu classes at night
And working on his mindset constantly
By hanging out with people that can grow him.
He’s the sort of fella that puts his ego on the shelf,
And just wants to learn and become better.

Stay the course ;)
