#IWelcomeTheChase

Today is the greatest achievement in my life!

My first day of paid work in 12 years, 8 months, and 7 days. It's taken 9 years of hard work to get to this point, and to be honest, I don't think a lot of people believed in what I was doing until I started studying in 2022. I was screwed and going nowhere in 2015, I had 9 specialist doctors at that point. I was constantly thinking up ways of how to get out of that situation, and the only idea I could think of was to work on my fitness.

Now, I'm here in my very own office on my first day as the Health & Wellness Officer for McHarry's Buslines in Geelong.

Thank you so much to the people who did support me getting here. I couldn't have done it without your help. And thank you to the people who messaged me encouragement along the way. I'm so grateful.

This might look like just a piece of paper with instructions written by a GP to most. But for me, this was the written instruction for the very first action that turned my life around. From late 2014, when this was written, I've gone from fat, sick, & nearly dead to being on the verge of something very big.
It takes many actions to turn your life around, and learning a lot of new habits. It's not just exercise that got me to this point, but also eating, daily planning, and preparation. If you need help turning your life around & building habits, feel free to DM or email me at office@fitnesssavant.com.au

Last minute change of plans for today. Not at Premier Speedway, Warrnambool for the 360 Sprintcars. Getting things ready to take the van to Warrnambool tomorrow as per our original plans. I've been suffering serious fatigue issues since I had covid last year on top of Fibromyalgia, ADHD, ASD, & and breathing issues with my nose, which I'm having surgery on in the near future.. Going to the gym on a lot of days or travelling to the Speedway is the only thing I can mentally do for that day as I'm so mentally fatigued. I live off of ADHD meds and Musashi Energy drink in recent times. I have a positive outlook on things, and I'm confident that my gym program is gradually pulling me out of this situation. My body feels quite good... anyway, I'm just nicking to the bottle recycling place to get some extra holiday money. Let's go!

Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year to everyone. (This is my attempt at smiling).

2023 has been a trying year for myself, like many others. After the high of my fitness studies in 2022, things got derailed a bit, especially with long covid. But I haven't given up. I'm hoping to get things back into gear in early 2024.

The best thing I've done in 2023 is fully commit myself to the gym despite everything that's been thrown at me. The gym hasn't just helped me build strength but also helped build focus and resilience. The focus that I've built had been great for fighting off anxiety and concentrating on the things that matter most in life. The resilience has helped me be able to do day-to-day tasks on my worst days. Every day, I achieve something that helps move my life forward.

One focus that I'm currently concentrating on is my nutrition, as I'm hoping to drop a few kilos. This involves building habits, one at a time. Habit building is a big part of my job as a personal trainer. If you think you need help with habit building, as well as fitness training, feel free to email me at office@fitnesssavant.com.au or message the Fitness Savant Facebook or Instagram pages.

I'd just like to thank my Mum & Dad, Uncle Tom, Amanda, Georgia, my medical team, and my friends for all their support.

Wishing you all the best in health and happiness. Matt.
