The mental transformation has been huge, more profound than what the scale says or how my body looks. I feel so confident and capable of accomplishing really hard things! I am eating more than ever and I am not restricting myself, yes I have my cake and ice cream.

I initially focused on performance and strength. With the changes made, I was hitting multiple PRs and achieving new skills in the gym, but most importantly, I felt fueled and energized during workouts. We then adjusted to a cut, where I saw a huge change in my body.

When I first started working with Ryann I was terrified I’d get in my head about tracking my food and it would become unhealthy. To my surprise, it did the exact opposite. I have never had such a healthy relationship with food and my body as I do today.

When I started working with Carly, she introduced me to reverse dieting, a concept I had never heard of. We gradually increased my calorie intake from 2200 to 3240 calories. Surprisingly, I dropped 7 kg and lost 10 cm from my waist while eating more. I plateaued at 3240 calories, my maintenance level, and now I'm on an 8-week cut, having lost an additional 1 kg in three weeks while eating 2700 calories.

I began my journey with Black Iron Nutrition a year ago in August 2022 and it has been truly life changing. I have nothing but great things to say about working with Sabrina and BIN overall. This experience has had such a tremendous impact on me in more ways than I could have imagined.
