Social Media …. The reason why you’re failing !!

When I started Personal Training and coaching way back, 20 plus years ago, the only super strong people were the ones you watched every Christmas on the TV show ‘’world’s strongest man.’’ The only models you saw were the ones on the catwalk.  The levels of exposure of these beautiful people or strong and jacked humans were minimal. Compare that with today and you can’t go seconds without seeing these ‘super-human’ people on social media.

Thanks to social media, the comparison is constant. It’s no longer about what you see in the mirror or the improvements you feel in yourself. Instead, it’s about measuring yourself against endless highlight reels of people who look like professionals.

Every time you open your phone, you’re bombarded with:

  • Perfectly sculpted bodies
  • Professional-level athletic feats
  • Impossibly curated meals and workouts

Whether you are aware or not, you’re being trained and manipulated to believe that ‘everyone’ is ripped, has a tight, flat stomach, wins modelling competitions, is a champion Hyrox athlete, can walk on their hands and can lift incredible weights straight out of bed each day.

Algorithms promote extremes because it glues your eyes to the screen and/or causes arguments

 – anything to keep you on your phone right ?

Here’s the problem… 

You start believing that to be fit, you need to train like an Olympian, eat like a nutritionist, meditate in ice baths, and hit some mythical perfection every day. And if you can’t do that, what’s the point, right?

Back in the day, it was simpler. People started with what they could manage, took it step-by-step, and saw results. Now, too many people feel paralysed by self-doubt before they even begin, constantly judging themselves against filtered and edited content.

We’ve created a stressful society that’s tough to escape—but at RESULTS Fitness, we’re changing that.

Here’s why:

  • No cameras, no crazy filters, no models—just normal people making real progress.
  • Our programs adapt to your current level and build from there.
  • You don’t need to figure it all out; just book your sessions and show up.
  • You’ll be surrounded by a supportive community, not an intimidating one.

At Results, everything is done for you (except the reps—you’ll still need to put in the work!).

We’re also ramping up our focus on lifestyle support in 2025. From nutrition and mindset to habit development, you’ll have all the tools you need to succeed. No need for 7 different apps or fitness gimmicks.

Here’s the truth: signing up for a traditional gym often sets you up for failure. Gyms rely on most members not showing up. They might give you access to equipment, but they don’t provide guidance, support, or accountability.

At Results, we’re invested in your success. Your goals are our goals. We want people who are ready to show up, train hard, and be part of something bigger. We’re here to coach you every step of the way.

So let us take the stress out of fitness. Stop comparing yourself to unattainable standards online and start experiencing the difference for yourself.
