Transformer, More Than Meets the Eye!

What is truly involved with a physical transformation? To be absolutely honest….I don’t know.

I’ve never had to undergo one. Moving through the process of an emotional transformation? Been there. Mental transformation? Done that.  Spiritual transformation? Check. Actually, all of these never end, and if I play my cards right, never will. But a significant physical transformation, I can’t say that I truly understand what that’s like to go through for someone. I’ve been fortunate enough to have instilled in me from a young age, habits and patterns that allowed me to stay healthy, energetic and active to this day.

As a trainer, I help others make that transformation. You want to lose weight, trim down? No problem, I can help you do so. Everything I’ve incorporated in my life and continue to improve upon, works. It will get you to where I’m at physically; lean, strong, mobile.

Only it’s not that black and white, is it? Because a physical transformation is only one piece to the puzzle. True transformation includes all aspects of ourselves, the physical, the emotional, the mental and the spiritual. They are all inextricably linked and each plays a role in the expression of the other. So how can I be optimally attuned to the needs of those I assist, when I’m missing one of the spokes to the wheel? And the primary modality I’ve chosen to do it through, at that?

Among Circular Strength Training Instructors, Coaches and Head Coaches there is a saying, a standard of integrity which dictates: You cannot take someone where you haven’t been.

As part of my commitment to continue bringing the best tools and the best coaching to helping you achieve your goals, I’ve recognized the need and decided to undergo a significant physical transformation myself. To go through the process, so that I understand, not theoretically, but internally.

If one is undergoing a physical transformation, it involves a change in how we eat and a change in the level (or type) of physical activity we partake in. Just not as simple as it sounds, because what we are in fact changing are patterns and habits that have been cemented in over the course of a lifetime. In order for this to have the desired effect, this transformation is going to have to be so completely different from what I’ve been doing over the course of my lifetime.

And completely different it shall be.  Stay tuned….

Dare to Evolve,
Shane.
