Blog 64
This is huge for some people not so much for others. For me If i want help Im quite happy to go and ask for help as I have done this last ten days.
Now my Coach and Mentor is based in Denmark. So for me to be trained by him in person or to ensure I do the session correctly is not gonna happen. So In light of that stark reality, I went back to an old coach and old colleague who I consider a friend. Yes Ive paid him and would have even if he said I didn’t have too. I learnt my so much of my trade at his place, and him introduced me to the methods and relevant courses that I now Implement. If you are a starting PT then the facility he runs with two other Directors is quite potentially a Holy Grail of knowledge and state of the art kit.
But.. getting back to it.
My new phases involves Cluster Training which I might add is bloody horrible for the CNS. But My goal is to drop body fat and get back to 79kgs or under! (Some people, PTs and Coaches most likely, reading this will say fat loss, clusters wtaf!others will say what the hell are clusters)
Yep my Coach is absolutely killing me using low reps and incomplete rest. My strength is still increasing and my body fat is dropping which is exactly what I want! Incomplete rest with clusters, yes of course is going to reduce the amount of strength gain I can achieve during a session but he has my goal in mind.
Even the guy whose helped Coach me again this week has said , “This phase is bloody brutal Geoff!” to which I just laid on the floor in a heap crying and couldn’t respond to even if i wanted to.
Moral of the blog, if you feel out of you’re depth or like you need help to get where you want to be then don’t be afraid to ask for more help. It doesn’t make you a failure, its just going to assist you to keep pushing through and achieve what you want to achieve. I asked for help because my old Coach knows the methodology, the mindset behind it all as he also knows my Mentor, and he knows me also and that I like to put 110% in and suffer anyway! He knows I can be pushed and I knew he would maintain safety at all times allowing me just to concentrate on doing my session!
