Hi, I’m Theo, the creator and writer at LiftLearnGrow.com.
I’m a personal trainer, kickboxing instructor, and freelance writer who loves to travel, pet dogs, and drink far too much coffee. I spent a long time overtraining, undereating, and hating how I looked. I tried everything. I gave up the foods I liked, stopped drinking alcohol, and trained every day. None of it worked for me.
Eventually, I got fed up and decided to learn what would work for me. I started training 3 days a week, including the foods I love in my diet, and having the occasional social drinks. Like magic, I felt happier, performed better, and began seeing results. I now no longer hate how I look. I’m not at the end of my fitness journey, but I’m loving every step instead of desperately wanting to be at the end.
