Incredibly proud to be sharing this with you all.

This is @nickgrahamphotos - we’ve been working together a little over a year. We originally started in a weight loss phase and the first picture is where we started.

We then went into a surplus with the goal to add muscle to his frame over the autumn/winter months.

We then worked back with a 10 week cut phase to get him in the best shape for a well deserved holiday.

Interested in achieving similar results? I’m currently offering May completely free.

Get in touch now. Let’s make your goals a reality.

“Dan, I want to get in the best shape for my holiday. Can you help?”

My client Lisa came to me earlier in the year with a goal in mind and I’d say she’s absolutely smashed it!

Already in great shape as you can see, but with a bespoke nutrition and workout plan, some accountability we shed another 8kg’s in 12-13 weeks.

Excited to work Lisa in the next stage of her transformation.

Team RPA are smashing it right now. Want to be part of that? Join in!

Grateful for the environment.

Grateful to have the opportunity to train and build the physique I want.

Been visiting my sister in hospital the past week and it’s made me realise how grateful I am.

Currently 100/101kg’s and wanting to get back into the 90’s.

Going do my best, to stop taking everything for granted.

First game in about a year yesterday. Came off the bench against a challenging squad but proud to represent @kenilworthrfc once again.

Great to see so many familiar people down at the game and immensely grateful for the warm reception.

Back to it this morning. Another all body workout.

Nothing crazy. Just enough to challenge me in the right places.

Also taking the opportunity to get a coffee from @coffee_onthecorner - decided against a brownie with great reluctance.

You’re 30.
My baby sister is 30.

Astounded you made it this far.

In all seriousness, you’ve had my back more than I deserved. I hope I have done the same.

I’ll forever address your Christmas cards as “To the Adopted one”. But that’s our kinda joke.

Proud of what you’ve achieved and excited to see what you continue to do.

Your resilience and determination in life is inspiring to me and many others.

Whilst you’re maybe not spending today the way you hoped, you’ll always be my sister and I’ll do my best for you.

Did an all body session tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it!

Started with calves, worked my way up the body and felt good for it.

2 x compound lifts in the mix with squats and bench press.

Don’t skip Monday.

Get it done.

Time for an update I guess.

The last few weeks for me have been… peculiar. Really peculiar.

Life changed in many ways. I battled it. We’re still here.

Grateful for the incredible people in my life. I genuinely would have struggled without them.

I’m back and PTing at @anytimefitnesskenilworth - 9 years after starting. Let’s not focus on that timeline 🤣

What I have learned is that life is too short. But this is not a justification which I feel many use it as one.

It’s a reality.

Life isn’t just too short because you need to justify booking that holiday.

Life is still too short, even when it’s shit.

Training: it’s going good. I’m 3/4 days a week without fail and even got rugby back into the mix.

Yes I was going to retire. But happenings meant I needed to something to focus on.

My online coaching business is also thriving and I’m proud of what the team and I have created.

The platform is far from perfect. But it’s getting there.

Another learning from recent weeks has been doing your best will always resemble something different.

We all need to be kinder to ourselves.

♥️

Consistency.
Sadly I think too many of us are consistently-inconsistent.

I know I’ve been there. It’s hard to overcome.

This is where discipline not only stands out, but rewards immensely.

NEW PB TODAY!

Was it planned? Nope.

But the confidence of having a spot and an electric atmosphere in the gym.. I went for it!

145kg for a single rep.

Happy birthday @thesanctumofficial

The pump was pumping last night.

Most consistent I’ve been in years. Surrounded by good people and keeping discipline high, grateful for it all.

Headed to Cardiff to support @jessica.atkinsfox this weekend who has been a huge motivation for me.

2 weeks today we leave for a wedding in France and looking forward to creating some lifelong memories.

For now, final push 💪🏻
