Gratitude Post - Real MOVEMENT Project 12 months later
Just over 12 months ago I left the best job I could imagine in team sports Strength and Conditioning - Head of Strength and power also running nutrition and speed with 2013 NRL and World Champion Sydney Roosters.
I took a chance towards a dream.
RealMOVEMENT was born. I didn't know exactly what I would create. But I knew I had to leave the safety of a job that paid more than I ever dreamed of earning, working with some of the world's best Rugby League players including Sonny Bill Williams.
Now I train with some of the worlds best athletes and coaches at my now gyms in Mullumbimby and Byron Bay, the best place I've found to live after visiting over 40 countries and living in 9 for a few months or more.
I left to be challenged. Today I run an international performance business working with over 100 coaches from around the world, I'm partner in a gym and amazing people come and visit to train, learn, share.
Initially my training suffered with the move. I didn't have training partners above my level and I didn't have big enough gym goals to push myself along. No more Pat Lane, Sam Kennedy and Travis Touma to show me how it's done with the barbell.
Fortunately the RealMOVEMENT community is stronger than ever, in every way and I'm inspired by what I see the guys doing everyday. We challenge each other. This has helped me get back to personal best lifts on the Deadlift and the Clean with a few more to come soon I hope.
Not to mention RealMOVEMENT supporting NEW HOLISTIC PERFORMANCE FOCUSSED BUSINESSES: Perform360, WitnessTheFitnees Performance centre, InspiredMOVEMENT, TheVAULT, Metamorph HP, Movement Enhanced, Edge Performance, Empower Mind Body Strategies, BetterBodyProject, BodyByBrando, LordOfTheRig, YouToucan, Layered Health and Performance, Gravity Movement, Bigger Picture PT, Hill Strength and Fitness, IronBerg Performance and more being born.
PLUS CrossFitMandurah, CrossFit IronLion, Concrete Training and Fitness, CrossFit BFS, Obrien Fitness and Clean Shred growing to new levels.
I'm grateful to live the life I've designed. To spend time with my wife and baby every day and to live in the part of the world where more people are looking for quality of life as a priority than any other place I've visited in the world.
Thank you to everyone that has like, commented, shared on social media, to everyone who's attended a workshop and especially to those in the Real MOVEMENT Master Coach community who've committed to become part of the world most ambitious performance coaching community. We have only just begun!
What is the biggest contribution you can make to the world?
What is holding you back from doing it?
I'd love to help you achieve it.
