Right, mate. You're
Putting the work in, but guessing at the numbers.

The evidence
These are the answers that gave it away.
You said “You don't count, you eat clean.”
Clean food still has calories. You can eat too much chicken and rice.
You said “You've no idea how many calories you eat.”
Then there's no way to know if you're eating for your goal.
You said “You train whatever you feel like that day.”
Without a plan you can't tell what's working, or do it again.
You said “The scales went up and you don't know why.”
That's what guessing looks like. The numbers would tell you why.
You said “You've got a rough idea of your calories.”
A rough idea can be 500 calories out either way. That's the difference between losing and not.
Sound familiar?
What's going on
You eat healthy. Chicken and rice, the lot. But you've never tracked, so you don't know how much you're really eating, and you can't tell whether what you're doing is working.
Try this week
Rep 01
Log everything you eat for seven days in a free tracking app. Don't change a thing yet. Weigh what you can, scan the barcodes, and count the oil, the sauces, the drinks and the bits you pick at, because that's where the hidden calories are.
Why it works Guessing won't get you out of a maze. A plan will, and you can't plan until you know where you're starting from.
Rep 02
Pick a programme and stick to it for eight weeks: same sessions, written down, beating last week each time. Making it up on the day means you can never tell what's working.
Chicken, rice and avocado are good food, but they're not free. Fat loss comes down to calories in versus calories out, whatever you're eating. Get your number, then drop it by 300 to 500 a day.
Aim for 1.6 to 2.2g of protein per kilo of bodyweight, every day. Most people who think they eat loads of protein are nowhere near it.
Track everything for two weeks and watch your weight. If it holds steady, that's your maintenance. Eat around it, keep protein high and train heavy, and you'll recomp instead of guessing.
Write down every set, rep and weight, and beat something each session: a rep, a bit of weight, or a cleaner rep than last time. If you're not logging, you're guessing in the gym too.
Protein in every meal and 8,000 steps a day. Once that's automatic, start tracking the rest.

Who's coaching you
I grew up in football academies. Always sporty, never with the right guidance to reach my potential. I was bullied for being overweight, and I've dealt with severe eczema most of my life.
The gym became my escape. First at Palms Gym in the backstreets of Clacton, then at Physical Limits, training around bodybuilders, powerlifters and strongmen I looked up to. In lockdown I got up to 250lbs, then spent years getting myself back.
Now I coach people who want real progress that sticks. I'll listen, build the plan around your life, and genuinely care that you get there.
How coaching fixes it
You get a training and meal plan built around your numbers and your week. At every check-in we look at the data together and adjust it. No more guessing.
