My Goals & How I Plan To Help You in 2012
2011 was a big year for me. I achieved some goals that I thought were unreachable such as moving to my new facility and also becoming a training adviser for a fitness magazine.
I can also admit that I didn’t achieve some things such as launching my first product to you guys.
The weird thing for me last year is that although I achieved so many things, I didn’t really have the drive. I wanted to do stuff but I didn’t really go after it. My attitude was if it happened, it happened. And if it didn’t, it didn’t and I would just accept it.
That turning point
At some stage in your life you have a turning point and you just think, man the fuck up and get to work.
For me that turning point was December the 1st last year at Eminem’s concert. It was my first concert that I had ever been to and it was a true eye opener.
I was just totally blown away from how 60,000 people would attend from all over Melbourne just to see one guy.
From little kids to adults were all there just to see one dude do his thing. Everyone knew his songs and most people were rapping along with him word for word. Unbelievable!
I dunno why but that kinda stuff sends chills down my back to think that he was just a normal average guy who brushed off critics and haters and hustled everyday to get after his dream.
And now he’s an international celebrity and can’t take one step outside without someone bugging him for an autograph.
I guess for me what I learnt is that if you really go after something you can do whatever you want. Even if it is standing infront of 60,000 people and doing ya thang.
After witnessing Eminem’s concert and being truly inspired and pumped, that night as I was driving home I told myself to man the fuck up and to stop procrastinating on things you want to get done.
Since then I’ve been avoiding the sleep ins and have been hustling everyday on my goals for this year.
My goals
I thought I would share with you my personal, business and online goals for this year. The main reason is simply to keep my accountable. I also strongly encourage you to check up on me every now and then on my facebook or even just by dropping and email and asking where I’m at with things.
Because if I don’t do a blog post or come out with a product, you miss out on information that can help you with one of your goals for 2012. And I wouldn’t want that. So let’s work together.
I literally have a few hundred little goals but to save the length of this post I’ll mention my top 5 personal goals for this year…
1. My number one personal goal for me this year is to be the healthiest version of myself. This will obviously mainly be achieved through my diet but also exercising every day. Last year I was very inconsistent with my diet and training. But this year I plan on hitting 365 training sessions this year which equals to one a day.
I will base being the healthiest version of myself by my sleep, energy levels, strength levels, how often I get sick and if I remain injury free.
2. Pistol squat pain free. Since surgery my right knee has never been the same. Pre surgery I used to be able to bang out ass to grass pistol squats with no problem, I could even add weight. I can on my left , but not on my right. I get an enormous amount of pain when I drop down about a quarter of the way. This year I want to bang out at least one pain free pistol.
3. Become an RKC. An RKC is the Russian Kettlebell Challenge Certification. This is considered as being a black belt in the kettlebell community. Some of the best trainers in the world such Brett Jones, Gray Cook, Dan John and Andrew Read are all RKC’s. Basically if you are an RKC you are a badass and not taken lightly. The certification is late this year and I will be working with Andrew Read to prepare for about 4-5 months out.
4. Demonstrate advanced bodyweight exercises. If have been following me for a while you would know that I love bodyweight training. To me being able to crank out one arm pushups is far more impressive than bench pressing double your bodyweight. I want to be able to perform the following… 1 arm chinups, pistol squats with weight, front levers and the mother of all – One arm handstand pushups.
5. Travel overseas. Yes not all my goals are fitness related. I’ve never been overseas before and I wouldn’t mind hitting up Bali or Thailand this year for a few weeks.
Business Goals
1. I want to help over 100 people this year through my gym. I’m also talking about consistent clients. Not someone who comes for one session. But someone that I work with for a minimum of 3 months or at least until I help them reach their goals. I want to also achieve this without cheating by running bootcamps with 30+ people where I can’t even remember their names. Right now I’m at about 45 people.
2. I want to own my gym. Currently I’m renting, but I would much rather put that money towards a place that I know I will eventually own. If that means moving out of my current gym to a new one then I will.
Online Goals
1. Launch my first product. This was one of my goals for last year but unfortunately I was unable to tick off. Well the good news is that I’m already half way done. I plan on starting the video recording this week and should have the entire product ready for you in a couple months.
2. Hit youtube. You’ll notice this year that there will be a lot more posts with video. I plan on hitting 5000 subscribers on youtube.
3. Hit Facebook. My goal is to hit at least 2000 facebook fans by the end of the year.
How I Plan On Helping You This Year
1. New products. As I just mentioned I will be launching my first product this year which will contain over 50+ unique finishers. I also plan on doing a 12-16 week training and diet program mid to late this year catered towards beginner cardio haters.
2. RWC 2.0. Since I’ve received positive feedback about my RWC program on my blog. I plan on doing a 2.0 and providing you a full 12-16 week RWC program with some new tweaks.
3. One on One & Online coaching. For the last 2 years I have turned back numerous amounts of people who wanted to work with me one or one. I’d always felt that I would rather help 10 people in one hour than just one.
So what I’ve decided to do is I’m going to be accepting once off one on one training sessions. So basically we will meet somewhere and we will do a once off session. I will teach you everything I can with the amount of time I’m with you regarding your technique, sets and reps, exercise selection or whatever you are feeling you need help with.
Likewise I will also be accepting a selected amount of people to help online by providing 12-16 week training and diet programs as well as ongoing coaching.
More on this to come in the next few months.
4. More blog posts. I plan on banging out at least 2 posts a week filled with killer content and stuff that we do at my facility.
5. Finisher of the month. Pretty self explanatory.
6. Live facebook Q n A. Once every couple months or so I plan on sending out an email to everyone one day in advance and hold a live Q n A on my facebook fan page for 20 minutes or so where you can ask me any training or diet questions that you need help with.
I have have a few other things install for you, but I want to keep some things under the radar so you have some things to look forward to this year.
I’m really looking forward to the rest of the year and as you can see I have a ton of things on my plate which I look forward to delivering to you guys and helping you as much as possible.
If there is any questions or any ideas for stuff that you would like help with please let me know by leaving a comment.
Let’s dominate this year together.
