This awesome Cuban grandma let me workout in her garden… then joined in!

It was 9 years ago and I was travelling Central America with my trusty steed, a suspension trainer.

I stayed in Vinales, Cuba and rented a room from this wonderful lady.

She became fascinated by the suspension trainer and asked if she could try it.

1 set of Back Rows, which I advised she start with as I could see her posture needed improvement…

Turned into a few 10-minute coaching sessions…

Which turned into her using the suspension trainer quite a few times as she grew more confident.

A month went by and I had to leave.

So I left the suspension trainer with her and a workout plan jotted down.

(Pictured below is just before I left)

How a Cuban Grandma Built Lean Muscle

18 months later I was back in Cuba and called in to see her.

Guess what?

She still had the suspension trainer hanging and the plan on a shelf.

She looked in better shape.

Sounds ‘cliche’, but in all seriousness she had stayed consistent with it, lost a little weight, and looked and moved great for her 60 years of age.

Working out with the suspension trainer in her garden gave her the consistency to remain active.

There are no gyms in Vinales. No weights. No supplement shops.

Because she focused on slow, controlled technique, and used the suspension trainer to work with her body shape…

She saw and felt step-by-step progression after each workout.

That’s the key to consistency and motivation, to feel and see results from each workout.

The complete opposite of what meathead gym culture has you believe:

“Without weights in a gym there is no way you can build lean strength and transform your body”

It’s why the majority of people feel like they don’t have control over their fitness.

They feel reliant on a gym because culture has taught us WE MUST USE ONE to build lean strength.

If this wonderful grandma in Cuba can transform her body from home and stay consistent…

It’s proof we all can.

You just need to use your suspension trainer with ‘muscle-centric technique’ to see results.

If you couple that with a diet that improves your insulin sensitivity, you’ll see even faster and greater lean muscle building results.

That’s what The “Suspension Trainer Total Body Transformation Program” does for you.

It teaches you the effective training and nutrition to transform your body from home with one tool. Empowerment.

Hello, my friend… It’s my mission to help you build lean muscle and transform your body using just a suspension trainer and simple nutrition optimisation…

I call it Fitness Freedom!

I spent 8+ years as a personal trainer hating the ego-driven gym culture. Every day I saw clients like you struggle to make sessions, feel intimidated by the environment, and regard the gym as a chore NOT enjoyment. Because of this, their results were limited. But they believed there was no other way.

So in 2016, I setup Fitness Freedom Athletes. To date, Fitness Freedom Athletes has helped over 8000+ transform their bodies (and lives!).

Start here to transform yours too!

I'm new to Suspension Training, where shall I start?

First up, welcome! Out of all the millions of websites out there thank you for visiting this one. Secondly, your interest and motivation will change your life. It did for me and thousands of fitness freedom athletes in our community of all ages. If you have a suspension trainer (like a TRX)...

The best place to start would be with the Beginner Suspension Trainer Total Body Transformation Program. It’s the most popular Program and will teach you the effective muscle-centric technique to transform your body and begin your life-changing journey.

If you’re seeking a resistance band Program, get stuck into the Band Muscle Pump Program which is for beginners/intermediates to learn the band muscle-centric technique and transform their body with just one resistance band.

What makes this different from other suspension training Programs?

Maybe you’ve tried suspension training before and it didn’t work, so you wonder how is this different?

Here’s the truth: You didn’t fail. The technique failed you.

Richard is 50 years old. He’d tried everything for his knee mobility problems. When he started my program, he told me: “I was skeptical because I’d tried suspension trainers before with no results.”

But here’s what changed everything… Richard learned Muscle-Centric Technique instead of the mindless “movement-centric” stuff he’d been doing from YouTube videos.

The difference – Instead of multiple muscles sharing the load (which creates zero growth stimulus), he learned to isolate individual muscles.

The result? In his own words: “I have dropped 12 lbs and gained 90% of my mobility back. The strength I have gained has helped significantly.”

Yes, you may have tried suspension training before. But you’ve never tried my suspension training technique. The one that actually builds lean muscle and transforms bodies.

  • What you tried before: Movement-centric technique (multiple muscles sharing load)
  •  What these Programs teach: Muscle-centric technique (isolated muscle overload)
  • Why it matters: Only isolated muscles get the stimulus needed for real growth

The reframe: Your previous “failure” actually proves you need the RIGHT technique, not the RIGHT equipment.

Do you have any training courses or Workout Programs?

Yes absolutely, I have The Fitness Freedom Suspension Trainer & Resistance Band Programs for all levels and fitness goals. They will teach you the effective 'Muscle-Centric Technique' that will transform your body! And cover everything from nutrition to mindset and performance execution.

PLUS, once you become a Fitness Freedom Athlete, you'll get access to a tun of member only resources and bonuses within the Fitness Freedom Athletes platform.

I got you covered for every challenge and every goal.

What if I'm too out of shape?

Plot twist: Being out of shape is your biggest advantage.

Joe said it perfectly: “Outstanding program. It is perfectly paced for true beginners who are looking for a way to start getting fit with a program that pushes you, but doesn’t ask too much too soon.”

The Programs have two phases specifically designed for this:

Phase 1 (4 weeks): Technique mastery and building your foundation Phase 2 (4 weeks): Transformation and strength building

Matt started overweight and out of shape. Result? “Lost 40+Lbs, getting lean, and showing great definition!”

Ben, another beginner, said: “I’ve been delighted with the Program…. thoughtful and well-rounded!”

  • Beginner advantage #1: No bad habits to unlearn
  • Beginner advantage #2: Fastest initial gains
  • Beginner advantage #3: Most dramatic visible changes

The reframe: Starting “out of shape” means you’ll see the most dramatic transformation.

There are so many 'scammers' online, how can I trust you?

Where are you based?

I am mainly based in London, UK. But I love travelling, specifically backpacking our beautiful world and experiencing other cultures... So most likely I may be based on the side of a mountain or little beach hut. Perhaps I’ll even meet you in person at some point… That would be just awesome!
