Client VICTORY ⚔️ | Gary Hollyoak
Gary hadn’t been inside of a gyms for years. He had gotten himself into a rut, with excessive drinking, food, partying, and juggling the busy lives we all have.
Gary wanted to clean up. he wanted to lose weight, but along the way get a bit stronger, and gain some muscle.
We started a steady 4 month “ clean up “ phase for gary to get his body back to where it needs to be. The key being body recompositing (fancy term all the coaches use now, which is effectively just means CLEANING YOUR S**T UP. losing weight, getting into a healthy weight and lifestyle again, improving endurance and strength.
However, during this 4 month period – Gary continued to enjoy nights out, continued to drink every weekend etc – and we didn’t calorie track either. We did this from just adapting to more training, and changing the food selections he would normally eat, with slighty better options, and more complex options that force the body to burn more in digesting those foods.
During this period, Gary gained the strength to deadlift over 130kg for reps, 100kg ass to ground squats for reps, and making his way close to a 100kg barbell bench press.
I’m immensely proud of Gary, and as we move into our next phase here of gaining, focusing solely on getting super strong, putting more muscle and size on, I’m exciting to see what a proper uptake of food will do to him!
