I Gained 13kg in 12 Weeks By Tweaking My Training & Nutrition!

By Annette Shepherd

https://assistpt.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/IMG_1850.m4v

After not ever being able to gain any significant weight, CJ came to Assist Personal Training in Lilydale needing a different approach. An applied muscle testing session determined what foods he needed to eat and how much and his programming and training was personalised to his bodies needs resulting in over 12kg gained in 12 weeks.

 

We caught up with Cj Head to chat about how we were able to help him put on so much size in 12 weeks when he came on board in August 2016, highlighting the importance of personalised nutrition and training programs under the care of experienced trainers.

 

“Prior to working at Assist Personal Training in Lilydale I had never ever been able to put on any type of weight no matter what protein shake I took or weight gainer or even following structured weight training programs. During my first 12 weeks of training at Assist Personal Training, as part of my mentoring, I was taught tips that allowed me to train and eat better. We improved my technique which enabled the correct muscles to be activated whilst weight training and the major point of difference which I had struggled massively in the past was to eat enough of the RIGHT food to be able to fuel my body correctly to gain the result I did! Before you ask yes this was even done without the post workout “protein shake”

Pictured above Cj before joining Assist PT and 12 weeks after following personalised training programs and nutrition recommendations

 

There were definitely mornings and times where I felt like I couldn’t eat anymore food but I found the key to reaching my ultimate goal was to keep changing up the food I eat with the correct proteins, carbohydrates and fat sources, especially around training and with every meal! With these structures in place in my first 12 weeks of training I was able to put on 13kgs with 12.4kgs of that weight being lean muscle mass! I am currently sitting at a gain of 16kg and working hard to get to my ultimate goal of gaining 20kgs of weight. In addition to hitting my own goals, my favourite thing about training at Assist is being a part of a community that supports each other while everyone trains hard to smash their goals!

If you’ve been struggling to put on size, come see Assist Personal Training in Lilydale for a holistic approach.

It's been a while between posts. With so much time during the past 2 years of lock down for the fitness industry, we were able to really take time and reflect with a clear mind what's important in our lives.

Providing a truly transformational service has always been our priority, to make as much of an impact as we can with the hope that what we teach and provide as an experience is something that can be valuable in our clients lives well after their days of finishing with us.

This is the space you get to train in all by yourself, just you and your trainer.

Your time with us is not just about keeping you accountable by having to meet regularly with an experienced trainer who has the foresight to guide and help you navigate through what makes you feel like you need to be accountable but also addressing your mental and physical health and wellness. 

Your body is the master communicator. It's always guiding you with messages to help you experience your best life imaginable - in all areas of your life.

Since returning we've added a whole lot of new equipment, replacing some of our very old original pieces.

Annette is now offering breathwork in addition to Forensic Healing and Applied Muscle Testing for personalised nutrition and supplemental support.

And we'd also like to officially welcome Jesse from @corenetichealth to our studio who available for physio appointments in Lilydale too.

Online, we are offering mindset coaching, forensic healing and the 8 week transformational program Breathe Nourish Grow with @body.mind.soul.wellness.

All PT sessions are still 1 on 1 with Matt Shepherd who is approaching 15 years building on his skills. He's also assisting with coaching again for the NBL1 Kilysth Cobras Men's team in 2022 too.
