    As you can imagine, the entire process starts with a defining of your specific goals. For Sheamus, he was at a crossroads. He was torn between wanting to continue bulking up and taking on a look more similar to Brock Lesnar. I advised against this. Not only was this not necessarily something I felt he could replicate, but I didn’t think it would be the best long term plan to achieve what it was that Sheamus was looking to accomplish.
    The decision was to train for more athleticism while losing weight and changing the focus of his weight training to be more focused on quality over quantity. This included the use of metabolic circuits that utilized some foundational compound exercises along with the built-in correctives needed to address the multitude of imbalances that had been created over the years.
    Nutrition was focused on creating a caloric deficit and being the main driver of the deficit (rather than trying to do that all with cardio or conditioning). As Sheamus points out, it is important to be aware of how much food you are eating since even great food choices eaten in significant excess can lead to extra body fat deposition. That said, when smart food choices are made, it becomes much more difficult to eat in calorie surplus due to the nutrient density of these options.
    The mindset is also an incredibly important hurdle to overcome when trying to get this process right. Many people in his shoes might have a reservation of “losing size” for fear that they will lose muscle in the process. This absolutely does not have to be the case. If you include enough strength maintenance work throughout the training and adequately feed your trained muscles enough to ensure their recovery, the loss of muscle mass is not only diminished but eliminated.
    What you are left with is a better conditioned body at a lower body fat level with a preservation of strength that keeps you feeling peaked. There does not have to be a trade off of muscle density or appearance when losing fat either. As a matter of fact, the better scripted your training plan is the more easily avoided this consequence of trading unwanted fat can be.
    As always, the key to keeping these gains and improvements for the long haul is consistency. Here again, Sheamus is positioned to do this much more easily than others since his plan to get here wasn’t based on short term deprivation or temporary fixes. Everything he has done to this point has been something that he can do for a lifetime since it is part of a lifestyle that has now become almost second nature.

    Jeff doesn't post the lucky draw comment early to confuse the video for extra gainz

    Must not be doing the giveaway anymore. Now all I have to work with is the 1,000+ videos of free, high quality content he's put out over the years.

    Definitely noticed that he was more ripped at Fastlane. I immediately said, “that's Jeff's input right there!”

    I lost 25 lbs in six months at 42 years old, and am in the best shape of my life now that I'm 43.

    This is what I love about Jeff! An all encompassing approach to training. Yes to strength, yes to injury prevention and longevity, yes to long term health, yes to good mobility, yes to athletic ability...etc. And sometimes I think some ppl miss this feature about Jeff, but so key and quite rare even among experienced personal trainers.

    I've been following sheamus since the start of his transformation and I couldn't have found a better person. His youtube channel is so great and his mentality and personality is amazing. I have huge respect for him for what he has done.

    Can relate to this story. 41 today and as ripped as I was in my 20s and it’s in no small part to athleanx.

    I'm 50 years of age and I have accomplished the look and level of fitness that Stallone had in the 80's and 90's in the last year. I owe most of this to my OMAD diet and of course the hard work that I put in at the gym and the park bars but I would be remiss if I left Jeff out of the conversation, he has kept me safe and healthy with his tips on safety and proper form but he has pushed me as well to go the distance, to stop my mind from being my worst enemy and go too FAILER. I am not a man who wants bulk but I do want to be strong and healthy and with Jeff instructing me, I am well on my way...Thanks brother and take care.

    I've always loved Sheamus but seeing this just makes me happy & his whole work out ethos on his channel is freaking fab. The idea behind brave change is honestly genius and such a fun way to get people to try new stuff. Props to him and as always, props to you for everything you've done for, well, everybody.

    How about instead of bitching and moaning about not winning the give-away, we all go back to actually focusing on the great content that Sensei Jeff always brings to us with his videos. Let's be a good audience and show some appreciation to our coach.
