I had trained on and off for years, with no real success. Despite constantly researching what it takes to build an impressive physique, I could never quite make it work. I would cycle through different methods of training and dieting. I have been thin, skinny-fat, overweight, and never once felt happy when I saw myself in the mirror. This wasn’t through lack of willpower or effort. Working your ass off and never getting any results takes a serious toll on your mental health. I didn’t want to give up, but I felt lost and didn’t know what to do next. The silver lining is that these failures finally made me realise that I needed help, and having followed Jonathan on social media for a long time, he was my first choice. I don’t want this to come across as a clichéd testimonial that you see people put on social media because their coach made them. I asked Jonathan if I could write something about my experience because the improvement in my life over these past 7 months has been simply mind-blowing, and I am extremely grateful. I went into this not really knowing what to expect and hoping I could maybe lose some fat while building muscle. Since then, I have lost 20kg and gotten to a level of leanness I didn’t believe was possible for my body. I did this whilst managing to vastly improve my strength across all lifts. I look in the mirror now and honestly can’t believe it’s me. The physical difference in my photos is obvious, but the mental differences aren’t. I now have a MUCH better level of understanding on nutrition, health, sleep and training. I had a few setbacks along the way, including an operation. This put me out of action while I recovered. Having a coach during the tough times was an absolute Godsend, and realising that these setbacks are a mere drop in the ocean compared to the overall journey, has almost bullet-proofed my mentality. This is all thanks to Jonathan’s coaching and mentoring. Not once have I missed out on a social event, because I have learned to enjoy every occasion without any negative impact on my goals. I am a happier, more positive person, who looks forward to waking up every morning. I am about to begin the second phase of my journey, where we plan to up the calories and gain some serious muscle. I couldn’t be more excited! And when I eventually part ways with Jonathan, I will have gained all the tools and knowledge I could ever need to continue progressing, as well as a mate for life. If you are on the fence about working with a coach, please believe me when I say you will not regret taking the plunge. It will change your life.

If you’re looking for results, accountability and to have all the thinking done for you then you are looking in the right place. I started this journey at 208lbs and lost 20lbs on my own but was doing a crash diet that wasn’t sustainable. I didn't have a well laid out plan for the gym itself so I found myself wandering here and there trying to fill in exercises. To reach my goal, I needed that extra push and guidance to get the job done and when I connected with Jonathan, that's exactly what I got. Now it’s as easy as following the training and nutrition plan Jonathan has put in place and with this plan, the accountability, the community and the weekly check-ups, I’m down to 169lbs. I’ve lost fat, put on muscle and dropped a few sizes in the waist where I’ve had to buy new clothes. If you want results, then contact Jonathan. You’re going to have to be dedicated in terms of training but once you follow what he tells you to do, you will see results. This has been worth it, I can tell you that.

Before I started, I was following the generic chicken and rice diet, the same workout routines day in day out and seeing no changes. Now, with my own personalised macros, so many recipes to choose from and my own workouts that Jonathan updates regularly, I am finally making proper progress. Jonathan also responds to emails fast with informative and supportive replies. I highly recommend this program!

The arrival of baby number 3 and resuming my long work commute after two years due to the pandemic meant I could no longer fit in the regular exercise classes I had been taking. My weight was creeping up and I felt pretty helpless. I reached out to Jonathan as I liked his approach to nutrition and I felt he promoted a balanced lifestyle, fitting in gym sessions during the week but also resting and eating out at weekends. My experience in working with Jonathan so far has been amazing. After filling the application form out we had a chat and I felt Jonathan completely understood my circumstances and how he could help. I remember thinking "wow this guy gets me" and feeling genuinely excited about that. After deciding to work together we identified some near term and longer term goals and put a realistic workout plan together. I love the fact I don't even have to think about it - I can just walk in the gym three times a week, get it done, then leave. You get so much more than just a workout plan with Jonathan though. He is your biggest cheerleader when you hit that new PB. He also helps put things into perspective when I've gone off track with nutrition or had a generally bad week. This does not mean he is a soft touch though - he can spot a poor excuse for a missed workout a mile away! I'm six months in now and way stronger physically than I have ever been. At 41 I never thought I'd be able to master pull ups! I am also way more resilient mentally and feel I now have the tools to get back on track when life throws a curveball. I'm looking forward to seeing what the next six months brings working together. Let's go!

This programme has changed my life, it still hasn't settled in that I made so much progress in 8 weeks!

Kristian Hampson

From a young age I have always had a problem with my weight. At 110kg, I decided I needed to do something and through training and running a marathon I managed to get down to 80kg. However, the weight started to creep back up soon after as I started drinking too much and not looking after my eating. I felt rubbish. No energy, no vision. I knew I needed to do something so I filled in my application to start with Jonathan who I had been following on YouTube for some time and always liked what he had to say and the info he gave out. So, I discussed my goals with him and he tailored a program exactly to my needs. The workouts are fantastic with a tutorial video available for each exercises, my nutrition is looked after, there’s lots of recipes and if you’re unsure on something, Jonathan will sort it for you and give you great advice. All in all, this program has changed my life, it’s given me vision of what I want to achieve and what I want to do with my fitness and lifestyle goals. I have seen fat loss from day one (currently over 15kg down) without being restrictive like some other diets, I enjoy what I eat and have room to fit treats in when needed, granted the work needs to be done to stick to the goals set by Jonathan and if anyone does that, they will achieve their goals too. I still have a long way to go but looking at my progress so far, I am absolutely made up with what I have achieved seeing muscle I have never seen before and getting stronger in the gym. Epic program can’t wait to see what’s next!

Before I started the program, I suffered with many mental health issues, mostly being anxiety. This would affect me by wearing excessive amounts of clothing no matter the temperature to hide my figure; I hadn’t worn shorts in years prior to this summer. I would walk down streets looking downwards, look away from people when walking past them. One of the silliest is not letting anyone take my photo and politely asking them to delete it if they did. I stopped going to social events, I binged a lot, no longer got undressed in the same room as my partner. I despised how I looked. One day I was on YouTube and one of Jonathan’s videos popped up. I had enough of being depressed and self-loathing & I had confidence that Jonathan would help me achieve my goals which are constantly evolving. 10 months later, best decision I have made. Jonathan always has the right answer and I’ve never felt like I couldn’t ask him anything. I spent around 5 months working out at home, I hated the gym but with his confidence joined by mine, I’m now a fully-fledged gym goer. There have been times where I have fallen down but Jonathan has picked me up. I’ve caught covid, had 2 leg injuries, had terrible sessions at the gym but Jonathan has always sprung me out safely and back on track. There has been no obstacle he hasn’t had a solution for. And now, everything I have mentioned at the beginning is no longer an issue. I take every opportunity (especially now it’s Summer) to embrace my figure, I can walk the streets confidently, my posture is fixed and I look at people with a smile. Being fit and confident has impacted how I am with general life and work. I’ve become proactive and determined, at work I take every opportunity to participate in events (no more anxiety when attending those big corporate events!) and my social circle has grown! I hope this read has been inspirational and if you’re struggling, I encourage you to reach out!

Before starting this journey I was struggling with many aspects of life but overall I just had no direction and felt dissociated. I was eating multiple takeaways a week as well as multiple packs of biscuits doing whatever I wanted without thought of my health, both physical and mental. Falling short in my personal life as well as my work life, floating through each day without purpose. I reached out to Jonathan as I knew deep down I had not given up on myself but also recognised that I could not get myself to the level of consistency, discipline and commitment required without assistance and accountability. Having watched Jonathan’s YouTube channel for a while and having seen the opportunity to be coached by him I tentatively took that step. I say this without exaggeration, that was one of if not the best decision I have made in life. From day 1 Jonathan has been unbelievably supportive, providing regular feedback and ensuring accountability is held. He has helped me lose over 12kg so far and I’m as lean and strong as I’ve ever been, something I have no doubt would never have been achievable without Jonathan’s help. This has made me grow physically and mentally, I have a level of discipline and self-respect like never before. I have a new found confidence and feel like a new man. There really isn’t enough I can say about how amazing my transformation has been and it has not been without some struggles along the way, but that has all been part of this journey. Learning how to overcome those struggles and how to reduce the negative impact they may have. I have already made great progress under Jonathan and feel I have only just started! I cannot wait to see how my progress continues to develop from here on.

In the 5 years prior to joining Jonathan’s coaching program, I had lost 23kg of fat and fallen in love with the process of taking good care of myself. However, I had also gotten complacent with the progression of my physique. For the past year and a half, I had remained consistent in the gym but I didn’t pay close enough attention to what I was putting into my body for the other 23 hours of the day and so my body fat remained at a level I was unhappy with. I’d begin a cut, make progress, then revert and start all over again. As a result, in December 2022 I decided I’d had enough of taking one step forward and two steps back, and having followed Jonathan’s socials since 2020 and noticing his client transformations, I bit the bullet and decided to invest in the progress I knew I was capable of attaining with the right guidance in place. Fast forward less than 12 weeks I’ve dropped 8kg of fat and gotten stronger on many lifts. I have reached a point with my cut where it almost feels effortless, as if I’m on auto-pilot and just watching the fat disappear more and more each day - and I’m saying that as someone who has always had a big appetite! I am now within striking distance of the physique I have dreamt of attaining since 2018 and I could not be happier. I’d suspected for a long time that accountability was the missing link preventing me from reaching my goal physique for the past 5 years and after now having been on the program for 12 weeks so far, that has proven to be the case - 100%. Throughout these 12 weeks I’ve accomplished a lot with my business too and so joining the program has helped me prove to myself that I’m capable of excelling in fitness and my work life simultaneously. I honestly can’t recommend Jonathan’s coaching enough - it’s the closest thing there is to a cheat code with fitness 😉

Jonathan is always there for support and the best decision I ever made was to sign up with him. I've lost almost 60lbs!

Sarah McDermott

Before I started the programme I was deeply unhappy with my body. I was approaching 40, had gone through a premature menopause and I had put on weight over the Covid lockdowns. I felt that my body was letting me down in many ways and I stopped looking after myself. I wasn't eating healthily, I wasn't exercising regularly and I had no set structure to my daily routine. Where I always enjoyed the gym, I didn't know what exercises would suit me best and I didn't have the confidence to ask any of the trainers in the gym so there was no consistency to any of the efforts that I was trying to make. I came across Jonathan's profile on TikTok during the COVID lockdowns and I followed him for a few months before I reached out to him. I liked his videos, but most of all I liked his informative and realistic approach and I wanted to learn how to lose weight in a healthy way that I didn't feel that I was depriving myself and I wanted to learn how to build strength and muscle through exercise in the gym. I initially signed up to the programme for 12 weeks and now 11 months later I'm still continuing with it and going strong. I have achieved so much from the programme. I have a much better & healthier relationship with my body - I now see what my body is capable of when I look after myself and I feel much stronger in myself both physically and mentally. I have gained a huge amount of knowledge around nutrition and how to fuel my body in a healthy way and still enjoy my food. I have never felt hungry or deprived while in a calorie deficit and what I've learned has informed me in how to make healthier choices while still enjoying myself. I have continued to have my nights out and go on holidays during my time on the programme without affecting my progress or feeling guilty for enjoying myself. I have learned that I am much more capable of achieving anything I set my mind to than I ever thought. There have been many times over the past 11 months where I felt totally out of my comfort zone especially in the gym. With Jonathan's support & encouragement I was able to push through it every time and generally ended up smashing every challenge that I dreaded! (Thank you Barbell Hip Thrust!). I also never dreamed that I would lose the amount of weight that I have - my overall 'ideal goal' for myself was to lose 10kg - and I have doubled that! I feel stronger, fitter, healthier & younger than ever. Joining the programme is one of the best things that I have ever done for myself!

Seán O Boyle

Before I started working with Jonathan, I had trained for many years but was not seeing the results that would reflect the effort I was putting in. Last year was a very difficult year for me personally and I felt I needed some guidance, accountability and structure. I wanted to balance my heavy work schedule, prioritise my family and be efficient in the gym. I reached out to Jonathan because the challenges that I faced had affected my physical health and I realised how important the gym was for me, both mentally and physically. I was tired of the frustration, the guess work, and the lack of real progress. Working with Jonathan is a decision I will never regret. Not only has he given me a great training programme, he’s guided me through every aspect of the physical journey. Refocusing and adjusting mindsets, guiding me through social events such as Christmas, holidays, stag weekends away, when motivation or doubt became an issue, whatever the challenge he was always available to provide the support needed. I have now established habits and routines that are seeing massive results. I’ve cut 14.5kg and am now in a position to build a physique I can be very proud of. I am very excited to see where we go next and it is very comforting to know that I am working with a guy who holds himself and myself to such high standards. The professionalism, knowledge and support that Jonathan provides is a credit to him! He has also created a community amongst the members where we can share our goals, our experiences and our achievements. He has installed habits and mindsets that have set me up for success and I can’t wait to what that success will look like! My thanks to Jonathan for the work ethic and support so far 💪💪

Jonathan is brilliant at what he does and I didn’t want the 8 Week Challenge to end! I lost over 7kg.

Shikha Puri

I’ve always been into fitness and health and managed to lose weight on my own a few times but never managed to keep it off as I always took drastic measures with low calorie and high cardio workouts. I lost my period and knew I was not doing this right way. With frustration after regaining weight for the second I decided to approach Jonathan as I had been following him for a while on Instagram and YouTube and he made it look so easy to stay lean year round. This is the best thing I’ve ever done. My nutrition has improved so much now that I have the right calorie and macronutrient balance in place and I'm eating the right foods and I have kept my cycle all through this fat loss phase as a result. The workouts he designs me have taught me to stay consistent with exercises and the importance of tracking reps/weights for progressive overload, muscle and strength gain. I’ve come a long way from not being able to do pull ups to now doing weighted pull ups! I also realise that once you're following the right plan in terms of training, nutrition and steps, you don't have to do nearly as much cardio as I was doing in the past. I feel so much healthier in myself with this approach.

Stephen Hanley

Jonathan has been nothing short of amazing in supporting me with this journey. He takes the the time to answer any and all questions and has done everything possible to ensure that my progress has continued from week to week. As a result, I have grown in confidence both in my looks and my ability in the gym. I can't wait to see how the rest of my journey goes and knowing that Jonathan has my back, I am confident that I will see the results I wish to obtain. I have lost 26kg!
