Important post !! Everyone must read this to understand the process of weightloss
Team — really, really good check-ins again this week. Some of you have had brilliant weight losses, and you should be proud of yourselves because the effort has clearly been there. However… I also know there’s a few of you this week feeling frustrated because the scales have either stayed the same or even gone up slightly — even though you’ve done everything right. So I want to make this very clear: If your weight has stayed the same or gone up a bit this week, that does NOT mean the plan isn’t working. It does NOT mean you’ve gained body fat. And it definitely does NOT mean you’ve done anything wrong. In fact, most of the time it’s actually a sign you’re doing things properly — especially if training and cardio have been consistent. Why the scales can stall or go up (even when you’re smashing it) Here are the most common reasons: 1) Muscle inflammation (water retention from training) If you’ve trained hard this week — especially 5–6 days — your muscles will be inflamed and repairing. That inflammation causes water retention. So yes — you can be dropping fat while the scales stay the same… because you’re holding extra water while your body recovers. This is extremely common in week 2 when the training is full on. 2) More volume / heavier lifting If you’ve lifted heavier, done more sets, more volume, or pushed harder than usual — your body retains more water. More stress to the muscles = more water held in the muscle tissue. That weight is not fat. 3) You may have eaten later than usual If your last meal was later than normal the night before weigh-in, you can simply have more food sitting in the gut. That can show up on the scales as “weight gain” even though it’s just undigested food. 4) Salt / carbs can hold water If you’ve had a meal with higher salt, higher carbs, or even a takeaway/off-plan meal… Your body can hold extra water for 24–72 hours. Again — that is not fat gain. 5) Hormones Hormones can massively affect weight on the scales.

Morning team 👊
Lighter mornings, lighter evenings, and longer days are coming… and honestly, it changes everything. I don’t know about you, but in spring/summer it feels like there are more hours in the day — and getting up earlier for cardio suddenly feels way more doable. Here’s why you genuinely feel better + have more energy in the warmer months (it’s not just “mindset” — there’s real science behind it): 1) More daylight boosts your mood + drive When you get more natural light (especially earlier in the day), your brain increases serotonin — which can improve mood, motivation, and overall “get up and go” energy. More light = your body feels more switched on. 2) Your sleep quality often improves Daylight helps set your internal body clock (your circadian rhythm). When that’s running well, you tend to: - fall asleep easier - get deeper sleep - wake up feeling more refreshed And when you sleep better… you train better. Simple. 3) Vitamin D levels tend to rise In the UK especially, winter can mean low vitamin D for a lot of people. As the sun comes back out, vitamin D levels can improve — and that’s linked to energy, mood, immune function, and even muscle function. 4) Warm weather makes movement feel easier Cold, dark mornings make your body feel stiff and “slow to start.” Warmer temps = you feel looser, more mobile, and less resistant to moving. 5) You naturally do more without realising Spring/summer usually means more: - walking - errands - being outdoors - social activityThis increases your daily steps and overall energy output without it feeling like a chore. 6) You’ve got something to aim for Let’s be honest… holidays, events, summer clothes, longer days — it gives you a natural goal and deadline, which fuels consistency. ✅ Question for you: Do you feel more motivated to get up early and get cardio done when the mornings are lighter? Drop a “YES” if spring/summer puts you in a better routine 👇

Morning team, I’d like your honest opinion on something.
I’ve noticed that interactions on this Skool page are quite low most of the time. I completely understand that many of you are watching, reading, and using the information without always commenting, and that’s absolutely fine. The most important thing is that you’re benefiting from it. However, I’ve been considering the idea of transferring this content over to my new Instagram page instead. You would still get the same level of accountability, the same information, education, and support. Nothing would change in terms of the value you receive. From a business point of view, it would also make more sense, as Instagram would allow the content to reach a much larger audience and help me reach more people who need help. It would also remove the ongoing platform cost for me. This isn’t a definite decision yet, just something I’m seriously considering. I’ve spoken to a couple of you already and you agreed it could work well, but I’d like to hear from everyone. Instagram would also allow you to DM me privately, which can sometimes be easier when discussing more personal topics. If you haven’t already, please follow my new page here: @coachsimonstubbsdaily I’ll be building this page up and sharing plenty of valuable content there. Please let me know your honest thoughts below. Your feedback genuinely matters and will help me decide the best way to move forward. Coach Si
