One Liners From The Episode:
 
“Seek humiliation and expect it. Once your humiliated to a fucking large level you change instantly.”
 
“When I see an influencer with great looks and a great body, the only thing they’re going to influence me on is which trainers I’m going to buy in JD. They are not going influence any decisions in my life. They are not going to inspire me.”
 
“It’s 30% business, it’s really about understanding who you are.”
 
“A leader doesn’t always have to be ruthless.”
 
“When you get to a level where you really don’t give a fuck. Like really don’t give a fuck. It’s so liberating and the energy you create is boundless.”
 
“98% of trainers will not survive. They are all fucking wimps.”
 
“Unfollows are great because they’re the people who are not interested in what you have to say. And if you get upset by that shame on you because you want to create a business and life that fits their little bubble. Fuck that. No chance.”
 
“I’m the sat nav... I’ve dealt with all the same stuff as all struggling PT’s and overcame it.”
 
“I want to be balanced. I don’t want to be positive or negative.”
 
“Invest in a mentor who you like.”
 
“You can’t compare yourself to anyone. If you’re comparing yourself to other people you don’t know your purpose and you’re living by your senses. When you live by your senses you get lost.”
 
“I’m straight down the middle. If I don’t like you I don’t like you; but I always have your best interests at heart.”
 
“I never openly reached out to someone saying I need help and guidance, I never did that and I tried to do stuff myself. The reason I did that is because I wanted to appear big balls. And I wanted to make sure I knew everything, I wanted to correct everyone, and I was right. That cost me a lot of money, nearly my life a few times, it cost me a lot of problems with myself that I could of overcome quicker”.
