Perception vs. Reality

Post comp I haven’t really stuck to a strict diet and meal plan - I’ve still been eating pretty basic with maybe a cheeky donut here and there. 

Although this diet is FANTASTIC for my soul turns out its now that great for my waistline!

I’m feeling soft, frumpy and just blah (yes this is a usual way I describe a lot of things!)

I feel this way because I can’t help but to compare my body to what it was comp prep.

It is stupid.

I’m far from fat but can’t help to squish my lower tummy and think ‘where’d this come from?’

Anyway that’s how I’ve been feeling and I know many of you go through the same thing daily…..

I ran into a past client of mine whom had a beautiful baby, we got talking and mid conversation she asks ‘have you lost weight?’

(Yes she is now my new best friend and I want to bring her everywhere with me)

It resinated with me not only because it made me feel awesome but made me stop and realised I’m being ridiculously hard on my poor body and that my perception of myself is completely different to other peoples reality.

As females we worry about minor imperfections – it’s like we stand in front of a mirror and pick out the ‘worst’ parts about us and then threat about it 20 times a day.

Your ‘worst’ part that you are constantly worried about is more then likely someone’s idea of perfect and by you constantly putting your self down is only going to make you believe the ridiculous things you are saying.

So why waste your time and energy on something that is only going to leave you feeling self-conscious, unhappy and sad? Why not focus on the good parts?

‘I don’t have any good parts’ you are saying.

SHUT UP!!  That’s a big crock of poppy cock. 

First thing in the morning acknowledge 3 amazing parts of your body you admire, are thankful for or simply just like.

It’s kind of weird but so is telling yourself how disgusting you look everyday.

I’ll go first:

#1 I’m thankful for my perky boobs they are not too big or not to small and I get to enjoy going braless often.

#2 I admire my core strength, which is visible through my upper abs and obliques.

#3 I like my butt because it has shape and keeps me comfy when I sit down and it also makes me think I’m a black person when dancing. #twerking


Your turn.

Royale Fitness Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down

We have all seen the thumbs up/thumbs down pages on Facebook where people want the cheapest and best (this doesn’t exist people!!!), where people complain about the most ridiculous petty crap like not getting enough chips in their KFC (HELLO STOP EATING F*CKING KFC) and where trolls love to pick on other trolls.

What’s worse I can’t help but read EVERY SINGLE post. I don’t actually give a flying hoot if someone parked terribly or your egg was over cooked, I swear I even saw a pregnancy test on there asking complete strangers if it was positive or not?!?! WHAT IS GOING ON?!?!

I had to ‘unlike’ the page. I was wasting a ridiculous amount of time scrolling through rubbish that was never positive, super unproductive and had zero benefit for me.

How much time do you waste flipping from Facebook to Instagram to Snapchat to Tinder to Twitter to YouTube to god knows what then back to Facebook just in case something new pops up!?!

As a society we spend a shit load of time on social media – which is fine it is apart of our generation…

BUT…..

imagine how much more productive we would be if A- we didn’t have it or B- we used it effectively.

TEL WHAT DO YOU MEAN INSTAGRAM IS MY LIFE?!?!

Okay lets say you wake up and first thing you do is check your phone (yes I’m talking to you!!!) You scroll for a good 30 minutes before actually getting out of bed – taking in nothing from your scrolling even though you re-freshed it like 5 times.

In that 30 minutes you could have done any of the following:

-Gone for a fasted walk to burn some serious fat (my favvv thing!)
-Had an extra 30 minutes doing hair/make up
-Had an extra 30 minutes sleep
-Had an extra long shower (summers coming and leg shaving is upon us!)
-Had a nutritious breakfast (which girls tell me they never have ‘time’ for)
-Prepped a nutritious lunch (which again I get told is not an option due to time)
-Got a 30 minute workout/yoga sessions in
-Bond with your pets or children (who actually love you unlike John Smith who be liking all your pics!)


Getting in that extra 30 minutes a day would make a huge difference and hell that is only in the morning – we all know how much we dabble online after work.

Your goal for the rest of this week is to be more aware of how much time you are wasting.

Then once you are aware of this make a change.

It may be a simple as setting ground rules like no social media before lunch/after dinner (we apply the after dinner rule in the Prince house hold) or even completely deleting the apps (I did this with Snapchat)

You’ll be surprised how much of your life you are wasting online when the people that really matter are right next to you.

Dear Douchebags...

I’ve been going out since slightly under the age of 18 – I use to love it - dancing all night, partying with my friends and then getting some sort of greesy ass food on the way home. Back then I use to even be able to back it up and go out two nights in a row…. I have no idea how?!

As I got older I started going out less but one thing stayed the same.

The douchebags.

You know the guys who actually think they are all that? They will either not f*ck off or will always need to make some sort of comment wether its on your appearance, your attitude (I have little toralance for these people and my attitude may become a tad vulgar) or like the more recent comments on my ring such as ‘why am I allowed out?’ and ‘where is my fiancĂ©?’ to my career which to them seems laughable.

I was out a couple months ago now – there was a group of us and someone asked what I did for work - I was around about 90% of people whom I train and didn’t even think twice before ‘personal trainer’ left my mouth.

This douchebag laughed in my face. He continued on to tell me how he isn’t a PT and would know more about fitness. Told me to get a real job. Then later saw me drinking a vodka soda and called me out saying as a PT I shouldn’t be drinking. THEN noticed my engagement ring and made the above comments.

1) F*ck Off – Who are you?!?

2) Oh my career is laughable? Please go on to tell me how you are an apprentice tradie making $400 a week working for someone else and still living at mummies house.

My old approach would have been to throw the closet object (This has happened in the past) BUT I’m much more cool and calm about these situations now and realised I can write an email about it and use your arrogance as content and you can’t do a thing and hey, it is even apart of my job.

Now who is laughing?

So how does this experience relate back to you?

We all have crazy ass ideas. Your dream to others may sound ridiculous (even laughable) SO?!? Doesn’t mean you back down and let negative comments ruin your passion – it is YOUR dream, not theirs. Their opinion is irrelevant. There will ALWAYS be douchebags walking this earth and I’ve learnt not to take offensive, instead I’ll continue to work my ass off creating super humans – you should do the same – do not take offensive work hard and make your dream a reality.

STOP TRAINING TO GET SKINNY


Do you feel a rant coming on?

F*ck me side ways.

On a daily basis I see advertisements for fat burners, box gaps, tiny girls advertising bikinis, detox teas & waist trainers – YES WAIST TRAINERS.

It is pumped down our throat that as females we should be skinny.

That we must stop eating chocolate and carbs and any other delicious food for that matter and live off detox teas and smoothies because food makes us fat. 

(And fat is bad, I mean it only keeps our body functioning properly and allows us to reproduce.)

That we must workout – not to achieve goals pfft don’t be ridiculous but to achieve a certain body type that is considered ‘cool’

No wonder why 90% of cases of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa occur in females.

Imagine a world that didn’t shove such stupidity down our throats.

We would be eating food without every second guessing it, lots of healthy nutritious foods to keep our body functioning properly – food is NOT the devil.

We would be training to reach BADASS goals in strength and fitness – that would empower us to take on the world.

We would wear bikinis and rock the absolute sh*t out of them cellulite, stretch marks and all!

Is a world like this so bad?

I don’t think so…

I train over 70 females each and every week – they do badass sh*t EVERY session – we are forever throwing high fives and fist pumps, I’m constantly AMAZED at the strength, determination and effort shown by these girls.

They are no longer your standard ‘girls training to get skinny’ they are females on a mission, they are the new wave of super humans that refuse to get sucked in by media.

Seeing the shift in these girls and the way they think, act and train is truly incredible and gets me excited for a future filled with badass women!
