Inside the Guide

The 5 Pillars of Performance-Based Fat Loss

You don't need more motivation. You need better structure. This guide gives you the exact system.

Plan Everything

Remove decision fatigue. Map out macros, meals, training, steps and cardio before the phase begins.

01

Train to Build

Your training in a deficit should look almost identical to your gaining phase. Same exercises. Same intent.

02

Protect Recovery

Create a deficit you can recover from. Sleep, stress management, and rate of loss all dialled in.

03

Master Hunger

High-volume whole foods, consistent meal timing, and the 5-10-15 method to stay in control.

04

Remove Emotion

Daily weigh-ins, weekly averages, progress photos and measurements. Data drives decisions, not feelings.

05

You Train Hard.
But Hard Without Direction Is Just Fatigue.

Sound Familiar?

  • Calories adjusted emotionally instead of based on data
  • Training intensity dropping the second food drops
  • Weekend structure disappearing every week
  • Random exercise changes every few weeks
  • Overshooting deficits and losing strength
  • Poor sleep and excessive caffeine
  • Chasing scale weight instead of performance

Meet Shane

I am Shane, the owner of Storey Strength Coaching, certified personal trainer & nutritionist.

I've been working in the coaching industry since 2018, working with the average gym goer to powerlifters to aspiring bodybuilders to improve their body composition, get stronger, become better athletes & master their nutrition + mindset.

Personally, I'm a competitive natural bodybuilder + drug tested powerlifter having competed in 6 shows (2x National Titles) + 10 meets to date, so I understand what it takes to reach your goals. I've experienced your struggles & know your needs.

One of the biggest challenges I had starting out was knowing where to source good information, what was the best programme to follow, how long to follow it, how to structure nutrition -- you name it, I was asking it!

Luckily for you & my clients, I've made the mistakes so you don't have to. I've done the research, spent the thousands of hours & euros on courses to ensure I know how to get to the root of what really matters for you to achieve your goals.
