The crazy pre-photoshoot diet (do not try this at...
Intermittent fasting has been proven to decrease skin-fold measurements rapidly, at the same time ensuring that your body does not go into a sever ‘starvation’ mode which can lead to weight fluctuations later on.
The solids and dehydration is taken up by supermodels before a runway show. This is an extremely downsized version of that (supermodels usually do 9 days).
From January 2nd...
Fringe Benefits
So about a week ago it was ‘official’ that the boys are re-opening Fringe Bar (on Oxford St) under their very capable hands.
You’re also looking at the new resident DJ. Who just did a midday 40-minute mix of house/cave rave/ripping/bangers with the likes of Jack Beats, Wolfgang Gartner, Jason Sundstrom, Herve, Kidda, Harvard Bass, Renaissance Man and Solo. It was ripping like...

this is a great little article . I especially like...
Exactly. You should have your goal final date just after new years. For example, my goal has a closing date of January 14th, and has been going for just over 8 weeks, and it really kept me on track over the Christmas period.

All part of the circle of life. I was mainly referring to sweating though (you know the expression “sweat out pure alcohol”). Although yes, it does help with, ‘digestion’ to help things to get ‘moving’.

The secret to curbing Christmas weight gain
Top trainers share their secrets for staying trim this summer
Another busy year is drawing to a close and everyone is looking forward to the holiday season of sunshine, being lazy and feasting.
While everyone benefits from some down time, the annual gorging on fatty, high-calorie Xmas fare can make this time of year a dietary disaster, even for...
My first magazine article
Here is just a snippet of what the article will look like for Fitness First’s ClickFit and the magazine:
Take control of your social events
Donna Miller is a trainer and the director of SCALE PT (strength, conditioning and lean eating). She specialises in building lean muscle mass.
“My clients often complain they have little control over the food that’s available at festive events,”...
So lovely to hang out with my girl, Tyn, last night. It’s been too long, and I thank you for understanding this time of year and the hectic schedules we carry. Looking forward to the fantastic four of us being reunited in January!
“Last week of the year TEAM! Let’s make it the biggest and the best and...”

For someone who doesn’t eat any dairy, I came to the realisation that all of my shower products have milk and butter in them.
This is how my Sunday went:
woke up at 8:30am feeling fresh as I was sober the previous night.
Harry was hungover as fuck in bed next to me.
Got dressed & motivated to do the grocery shopping circa 9am.
Realise the sun is out & the beach (& the boy) are calling me to go to it.
My lovely lady (yes you!) is tired & seems to love the invite to stay in bed to sleep

Took the PT through his session yesterday
Unfortunately he did not throw up
Although he did nearly faint, and was absolutely thrashed by the end. He was to the point of failure by the last set.
And this afternoon we’re going on a coffee date.

How are you?
Happy, content, confident.

T&Cs
Mate, you signed them, if you cancel within 24 hours, you pay. I’d be more lenient if you actually committed more to the sessions and your nutrition outside of our time as well.

who is the mona vale pt from vision? im from mona...
I’ll keep him anonymous to protect his identity. Plus - he is redeeming himself by putting me through a session another day to see if he can make me throw up.
Working out can be so sexy.

The spew session
Tomorrow I’ve got the session with the ever-so-cute 20year old PT from Vision.
He’s making the trip from Mona Vale to come to my club. We have a bet that I can’t make him throw up in a 45 minute session.
This is how it’s going to play out:
Exercise sets reps rest weight
A1: 5-sec 4 6 10s bw (unassisted if he can) eccentric chins
A2: BB 1 1/4 4 10 10s 40kg but...

I’m not shallow or only into superficially good looking people - just to be square.
I’m determined, I’m sarcastic, I take pride in myself and how I try to speak with integrity and meaning. If I don’t have anything valuable or nice to say, I will sit and listen, not form opinions, and just accept fact.
I love knowing what I’m doing and when. I’m driven...
Pool parties - a great way to see a potential “someone’s” body before you know, you get them naked in your bed.
Does it make me shallow if I’m completely turned off now? I mean, I take care of my body, and I’d like to be with someone who takes pride in their body too. And I’m not the kind of person who wants to change someone’s habits. If it’s not...
Sometimes unexpected things happen, or you see something or someone in a different light.
Thursday night I had tee’d up drinks with an old friend of mine, who I have known for a few years, but only on a partying level. He is also very smart, business-minded, entrepreneurial and great with numbers and marketing. In light, I am blessed to know him and even more grateful that he offered to...
If someone has a place in Sydney where I could get a whole night’s sleep without being woken up by loud and drunken housemates, that would be ideal.
