I hope you enjoy this. If you want my help to build lean muscle & transform your body with a Suspension Trainer or Band Program, Referring to the transformation photo below…
On the left was the last time I used a gym in 2016. Having spent a total of ten years using one. I left the gym for good because I hated the ego-centric atmosphere and how reliant I had become on it.
I literally couldn’t be away from a gym for more than a day without feeling bad. It affected my mental well-being.
On the right was 3 years later having used only a TRX suspension trainer to workout in that time. Whilst living in South America (Mexico, Nicaragua, Argentina). No gym. No weights. Just a suspension trainer in my own space and time. Freedom…
The Positives & Negatives I’ve Discovered From Switching
I was at the end of a diet phase on both photos. The differences are slight on the outside, but hugely different on the inside!
A few things I can compare off the top of my head…
1. Gym Photo On the left
I lifted heavy with poor form trying to show off strength 90% of the time and was never happy with my physique. Probably due to the toxic comparison iny gyms.
I was constantly distracted in a gym with very poor internal mind-muscle connection and focus just moving a weight rather than contracting a muscle
Injury was common. Rotator cuff pain. Lower back pain was constant. Flexibility was bad.
I hated constantly weighting for machines and equipment. Had to go very early in the morning to avoid total gym gridlock
Sometimes I would see workouts as a chore or something I MUST DO rather than an enjoyment. Often left the gym more frustrated rather than elated.
I was however deadlifting 190kg, which at 78kg weight I was pretty happy with.
2. TRX Photo On The Right
Personally, I feel my overall physique is better developed from constantly using stabilising muscles when performing TRX exercises.
My focus is purely on me and not on other people in the gym. Zero distractions.
It taught me to slow down and focus on form, perfect technique, and feeling. Rather than how much weight.
My shoulder pain has gone. My lower back pain has gone. My flexibility is ten times better. Not a single injury.
My internal mind-muscle connection has increased dramatically. From working out in my own space and time with no distractions, I feel it is like meditation.
I don’t feel or look imbalanced. Workouts are on my time, not gym time. And I love working out in different places and exploring creative fitness with a TRX.
I’ve saved a TON of money. I probably can’t deadlift 190kg any more

What Lead To Success?
I used the TRX suspension trainer with ‘muscle-centric technique’ and mind-muscle connection principles.
99% of people use a TRX suspension trainer with ‘movement-centric technique’. Which is only good for working up a sweat. It’s useless for building lean muscle.
That technique combined with unlocking my mind-muscle connection has allowed me to transform my body without a gym. And I honestly don’t think I will ever go back to one.
Using my mind-muscle connection. Workouts have become a form of meditation in my own space. Strengthening my body whilst calming my mind. It feels fantastic for my mental well-being.
Why People Struggle To See Results From A Gym
I believe people become externally focused on their gym environment and not internally focused on their bodies, not on:
- How they’re moving with quality technique
- The SQUEEEZE at the top of every rep
- The stretch at the bottom of every rep
- Mindfully connecting to their body so each workout becomes a form of meditation…
They’re externally distracted. Arnold Schwarzenegger used to talk about the power of your mind and willing your muscles to grow. It’s essential.
It’s the same principles I teach my clients and the reason why they’re able to build lean muscle and transform their bodies from home. A member of the Fitness Freedom Athletes community recently commented:
“I’m finally understanding this Fitness Freedom mindset and muscle-connection. I can’t imagine going back to big lifts for the Upper Body again.”
He’s had the ‘ah ha’ moment of realising it’s not the tool (weights, gym machines, bars) you use to transform your body.
The muscle doesn’t know what you’re holding. It’s the internal connection to each and every muscle combined with perfect technique. It just so happens our tool is a TRX because it’s highly accessible.
Fitness Freedom
I practically lived in a gym with permanent frustrations, spinning my plates and not realising how little I was progressing. Never mindfully connecting to the muscle I was targeting. Always externally focused.
But now now. Now I’m internally focused and workout whenever and wherever I want. The results both mentally and physically are consistently improving.
