  1. Today is the greatest achievement in my life!

    My first day of paid work in 12 years, 8 months, and 7 days. It's taken 9 years of hard work to get to this point, and to be honest, I don't think a lot of people believed in what I was doing until I started studying in 2022. I was screwed and going nowhere in 2015, I had 9 specialist doctors at that point. I was constantly thinking up ways of how to get out of that situation, and the only idea I could think of was to work on my fitness.

    Now, I'm here in my very own office on my first day as the Health & Wellness Officer for McHarry's Buslines in Geelong.

    Thank you so much to the people who did support me getting here. I couldn't have done it without your help. And thank you to the people who messaged me encouragement along the way. I'm so grateful.

  2. This might look like just a piece of paper with instructions written by a GP to most. But for me, this was the written instruction for the very first action that turned my life around. From late 2014, when this was written, I've gone from fat, sick, & nearly dead to being on the verge of something very big.
    It takes many actions to turn your life around, and learning a lot of new habits. It's not just exercise that got me to this point, but also eating, daily planning, and preparation. If you need help turning your life around & building habits, feel free to DM or email me at [email protected]

  3. Last minute change of plans for today. Not at Premier Speedway, Warrnambool for the 360 Sprintcars. Getting things ready to take the van to Warrnambool tomorrow as per our original plans. I've been suffering serious fatigue issues since I had covid last year on top of Fibromyalgia, ADHD, ASD, & and breathing issues with my nose, which I'm having surgery on in the near future.. Going to the gym on a lot of days or travelling to the Speedway is the only thing I can mentally do for that day as I'm so mentally fatigued. I live off of ADHD meds and Musashi Energy drink in recent times. I have a positive outlook on things, and I'm confident that my gym program is gradually pulling me out of this situation. My body feels quite good... anyway, I'm just nicking to the bottle recycling place to get some extra holiday money. Let's go!

  4. Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year to everyone. (This is my attempt at smiling).

    2023 has been a trying year for myself, like many others. After the high of my fitness studies in 2022, things got derailed a bit, especially with long covid. But I haven't given up. I'm hoping to get things back into gear in early 2024.

    The best thing I've done in 2023 is fully commit myself to the gym despite everything that's been thrown at me. The gym hasn't just helped me build strength but also helped build focus and resilience. The focus that I've built had been great for fighting off anxiety and concentrating on the things that matter most in life. The resilience has helped me be able to do day-to-day tasks on my worst days. Every day, I achieve something that helps move my life forward.

    One focus that I'm currently concentrating on is my nutrition, as I'm hoping to drop a few kilos. This involves building habits, one at a time. Habit building is a big part of my job as a personal trainer. If you think you need help with habit building, as well as fitness training, feel free to email me at [email protected] or message the Fitness Savant Facebook or Instagram pages.

    I'd just like to thank my Mum & Dad, Uncle Tom, Amanda, Georgia, my medical team, and my friends for all their support.

    Wishing you all the best in health and happiness. Matt.

  5. Today marks 10 years since my last alcoholic drink. I didn't have a problem with alcohol, but I've had sleeping issues for most of my life. Alcohol makes me happy and energetic, but it also makes me unable to sleep at night. So, it became the first sacrifice I made on the road to where I am now and where I want to be. It was originally meant to be a summer off the drink, but that summer is still going.

  6. Today was my best push session ever!

    PB for loads, reps, & completed every set. And I had the gym to myself.

    This is an amazing accomplishment for me as this year I've had to battle long covid since I had covid back in May, which triggered fatigue issues, sleeping issues, and breathing issues on top of one I had already been suffering due to breathing issues from a broken nose.

    Due to their not being many scientific answers for long covid symptoms, I figured back in early June that I wouldn't be able to do any cardio. I based this on what I knew from listening to other people I knew who suffered from it. So my plan of attack was to keep going to the gym and do resistance training, so no Matter what else I go through, I would still be physically strong and that would protect me from other health issues.

    I went to the gym regularly and kept everything consistent. Most of the recent months, I haven't had any more energy and put everything else in my life on hold, including my career. Last month, I started walking when I felt I had more energy. The past month has been a challenge with the change of season and my fibromyalgia, and I've also suffered from tennis elbow, and tight hip flexors. The only consistent thing has been the gym. When everything else hasn't been going well, the gym has, and I'm now the strongest I've ever been. This has been big picture planning, and these results aren't an accident. I put the time in, I turned up even on some incredibly rough days, and now I'm in a position where I'm not far off being able to resume getting my business off the ground.

  7. I've been off the radar recently and thought I better post an update. I was building up to a big mid-year when five weeks ago I was struck down by covid. Was out of action for two weeks before re-entering the gym, probably a week too early, forcing me to have another week off. I developed the symptoms of long covid. As their isn't much information on long covid, I've had to play it by feel in regards to getting back into exercise. Last week, I did three sessions in the gym and a few walks. I was struggling with my lungs, but they seem to be coming well now. This week, I'm doing the exact same amount of repetitions , keeping my body moving. I'm currently suffering from brain fog, sleeping issues, and anxiety, but I'm starting to feel good about the direction my health is taking.

    If you've had health issues and are looking to get back into exercise, feel free to email me at [email protected] or DM me to see what I can do for you.
