19 // Training Camp Winner – Adrian

April 2, 2024 at 4:34 am by

Introducing Adrian, our 19 // Training Camp Major Prize Male Winner.

Adrian has been a dedicated member of the UBX family since January 2023. At 43, Adrian relocated to Queensland with his wife and youngest child to focus on health and wellness, but maintains a CEO role, based in Canberra, ACT and regularly travels interstate, keeping life busy.

An avid gym enthusiast and golfer, Adrian’s lifestyle is a testament to finding balance amidst a hectic schedule. Joining UBX with the goal of maintaining fitness, he faced the challenges of a demanding travel schedule, humorously noting his achievement as the “slowest to 100 visits” at his gym, UBX Newport.

Adrian’s story at UBX is more than just about fitness; it’s about integrating wellness into a busy life, proving that with determination, balance, and the right support network, achieving health goals is possible, no matter the obstacles.

Our Training Camp provides our members with the Training, Nutrition and Mindset guidance to transform in just 6 weeks – and this was Adrian’s experience:

TRAINING

What was your approach to the Training?

“I love a challenge and decided I wanted to win when I took on this Training Camp. I trained in the gym everyday I wasn’t travelling for work, and when I was, I made sure I found a gym in every hotel I visited across the country. I made sure I focused on hitting high MEPs (Myzone Effort Points) followed by heavier weights than normal.

I set myself a goal of losing 10kg of fat and losing 10 shots off my golf handicap by Christmas. So far I’ve almost lost the fat and I’ve dropped 5 shots. Even scored a hole in one a few weeks ago!”

NUTRITION

What was your approach to the nutrition aspect of the challenge?

“As a busy traveller I decided I couldn’t focus on using the meal plans and being able to stick to them. I focussed instead on low carbs and increased meat intake. A 400gram serve of protein each night was the key, as I wasn’t hungry for snacks ever. Salad for lunch every day without fail. And when I did snack, it was delicious biltong. Cutting out beer was a big win too.”

MINDSET

How are you feeling post-Training Camp?

Feeling pumped. High energy levels throughout the challenge and following as I haven’t changed my diet – except at that awesome pizza night that our gym threw for all the challengers on ‘Fight Night’!”

ADVICE

What advice do you have for other members taking on the Training Camp – 6 week challenge?
