Marrakesh was a movie. 🎬🇲🇦

80 young men and women. One camp. Stacked days, new experiences and memories that will stay with us long after we landed back home.

This day? Quad bikes, desert dust, questionable driving 😂 and good energy with the @newgenacademyuk family.

But underneath all the fun is what NewGen Academy is really about.

We bring together young people from different races, cultures, backgrounds and creeds, creating an environment where people who might never otherwise cross paths can learn from each other, build friendships and grow together.

We want young people to leave us more confident, more knowledgeable and more self determined than when they arrived. To develop genuine self worth and purpose. To care about themselves, their families, their friends and the communities around them.

It’s about exposing people to new environments, new experiences, new ideas and new possibilities because sometimes you need to step outside of what you know to realise what else you could become.

We train. We learn. We travel. We challenge each other. We laugh. We build memories.

And somewhere in the middle of all of that, people grow.

Marrakesh gave us plenty of those moments.

CHOSEN GYM | BACK DAY 🦍

Finally got down to Chosen Gym in Hayes with my guy @g_gym_1 and yeah, it looks like they’re going to be taking my money. 😂

We went in for back day and probably hit 7–8 different exercises without even getting through all the back machines. That tells you what kind of place this is.

Panatta, M-Torture and some next seriously high-end equipment. Training on some of these machines feels like going from a normal car to a Ferrari, Lamborghini or Bugatti. The biomechanics are ridiculous — smooth resistance profiles, loads of stability and different angles to attack the muscle without wasting half your energy fighting the machine.

It’s never been easier to make the muscle suffer. 😂

Great atmosphere too. Proper training environment, decent size, huge variety and open 24/7. They’ve also got another location in Hounslow.

And big respect and manners to my guy @g_gym_1 for getting us down there. Excellent PT — knowledgeable, outgoing, encouraging and genuinely wants to see people progress. If you’re looking for personal training and you’re around Chosen, definitely look him up.

If you’re serious about bodybuilding or simply want access to equipment that lets you train every part of a muscle from angles you didn’t know existed, Chosen is the one.

Absolutely epic back session. My back was screaming while training Kung fu today 🥷⚡️ by @natchilabs

🎃 PUMPKIN SEED MILK | SMALL SEED. SERIOUS NUTRITION.

Milk doesn’t have to come from a cow — and plant milk doesn’t have to come from a carton.

Pumpkin seeds are nutritional little powerhouses: naturally rich in magnesium, zinc, protein, unsaturated fats and antioxidant compounds. Blend them properly and you get a creamy, subtly sweet, nutty plant milk that actually brings something meaningful to the table.

⚡ Magnesium — involved in 300+ enzymatic reactions, including energy production, muscle and nerve function.
🛡️ Zinc — important for immune function, DNA synthesis and normal tissue repair.
💪 Protein — pumpkin seeds are unusually protein-dense for a seed, providing amino acids your body uses to build and maintain tissue.
❤️ Unsaturated fats — predominantly mono- and polyunsaturated fats.
🌱 Micronutrients — including iron, phosphorus, manganese and copper.

For mine, I soak the pumpkin seeds overnight, then discard the soaking water and rinse them thoroughly before blending. Pumpkin seeds contain phytate (phytic acid), an antinutrient that can bind minerals and reduce their absorption. Soaking can reduce some phytate, although it doesn’t eliminate it completely.

Then comes the flavour:

3 dates for natural caramel sweetness.
Cinnamon stick for warmth and spice.
Nutmeg for that deep aromatic edge.
Sea salt to sharpen and bring everything together.

Then blend until beautifully creamy.

The result? Creamy. Nutty. Gently spiced. Naturally sweet. Nutrient-dense as hell.

No carton required no seed oils, guns or crap. Just real ingredients transformed into something ridiculously good and tasty.

Small seed. Serious nutrition. 🎃🌱

🇯🇲 JAMAICAN OXTAIL | BROWN RICE | RED CABBAGE & SPINACH SALAD

Proper comfort food. 🇯🇲🔥

Slow-cooked Jamaican oxtail until it’s deep, dark, rich and falling away from the bone — covered in that thick, glossy gravy that carries all the flavour of the herbs, spices and aromatics it’s been cooking in.

Served over nutty brown rice so it can soak up every bit of that gravy, with a fresh red cabbage and spinach salad on the side for crunch, colour and contrast.

Rich, savoury, slightly sweet, deeply spiced oxtail against something fresh, crisp and vibrant. The kind of plate where everything has a purpose, and absolutely nothing gets left behind. You’ll suck the bone like your life depended on it. I remember one time I cooked oxtail for my African bredrin who didn’t appreciate it and left hella meat on the bone. Safe to say I only ever linked him outside my yard after that 🤣 I don’t play about my oxtail 😎💀

Caribbean food is just different when it’s done properly. 🇯🇲🌴

Slow cooked. Full of flavour. No shortcuts. 🍖🔥 by @natchilabs

NUNCHAKU 🥋 | TRAIN THE BRAIN

I don’t mind looking shit at something initially.

I’m not practising martial arts because I think I’m some elite master. I do it because I love learning difficult things — and because it gives me something that another hour on a treadmill never will.

Nunchaku challenge timing, coordination, spatial awareness, reaction and bilateral motor control. As an unfamiliar movement becomes more familiar, motor learning drives neuroplastic changes across the brain networks responsible for planning, coordinating and refining movement. The awkwardness is part of the stimulus.

And that’s really what this is about for me.

Awkward → deliberate → coordinated → automatic.

I get cardio. I get movement. I challenge my brain and body. And I get the satisfaction of gradually becoming less shit at something I once couldn’t do. 😂

So don’t be afraid to do things you’re not good at because you’re worried about how you’ll look. You don’t need to be elite for something to be valuable.

If it challenges you, improves you and you genuinely enjoy the process, keep going.

Because ultimately, the person you become through learning the skill may be more valuable than the skill itself. 🧠🥋 by @natchilabs

Discipline isn’t loud. It’s the sound of leather on canvas, round after round, when no one’s watching but everyone can hear it.

Nathaniel putting in the work. Bags, pads, repetition, precision. This is what separates fighters from people who just show up.
