Hi guys,
My name is Andy, I live in Liverpool, UK. I’m 28 years old, 5ft 8.
I just wanted to share my story with you. You guys have really kept me motivated, I listen to the podcasts constantly and own both of your Living Lean books. I have been in and out of gyms since I was 18. I would get so far but then my progress would halt because I never changed my diet, and I didn’t know anything about food, or even cooking. Before I got your books, I could not even cook! So I learned (still learning!) how to cook by using your recipes. What a great way to start.
I’m a small guy, everyone has always told me ‘you don’t need to lose weight,’ ‘You’re too skinny,’ etc., but I knew better, I was ‘skinny fat,’ and I hated it. I eventually became disgusted with what I had done to my body and decided that I needed to change my lifestyle. I was tired of feeling horrible and sorry for myself all the time. I got hold of Living Lean and read it a couple of times. It really changed my outlook towards food and training, and off I went. I have not been to the gym in months, instead I got hold of DVD home training program and stuck to it religiously, I still do, and when UFC FIT comes out I’ll be jumping straight onto it for a change.
Thanks to your podcasts and books, I understand just how important food is when we’re trying to get lean and fit. I learned the hard way that training will only get you so far. I’m so much more motivated these days, and I will NEVER go back to what I was, EVER. I still have a long way to go, but I’m up for the challenge and with your coaching I know I’ll be just fine!
So guys, thanks for the knowledge you share with us, and for keeping us accountable and motivated. You made a real difference in my life!
BOOOOOM!
