He has just accepted the challenge presented to him by FamouslyFit.com and Bio-Synergy to become the new FamouslyHomme.....

Why I am doing it... goals and motivation

I have always been reasonably active and have played most sports, and I play tennis all year round and skiing once or twice a year.

I would like to get a bigger and more ripped physique, which is something I have been saying to myself for the last 20 years, and finally I have got round to doing it.

I would also like to be competent at a martial art and have started attending sessions of Krav Maga. If there was a particular body type I'd like to achieve, it would be probably something like Mark Walhberg...just about the right amount of muscle without looking too much.

I already feel like I'm losing fat and gaining strength after only 4 weeks, and the protein shakes are a great way to keep the all important protein intake. The training also gave me noticeably more stamina on my recent ski trip.

Matt Wakefield Matt Wakefield is the founder of Greenwich Fitness , an exclusive personal training studio located just metres from Greenwich Park. Personal training at Greenwich Fitness is conducted in a custom designed studio in which there will only ever be one client training at any one time ensuring privacy and comfort are maintained. Matt completed a Masters degree in Sports Science and Biomechanics in 2002 and subsequently completed the Premier Diploma in Personal Training and Sports Massage (REPS level 3). Matt became a Master Trainer within Holmes Place Health Clubs for 3 years before working at Virgin Active in Canary Wharf. Whilst working as a personal trainer Matt has developed an approach to training that has seen his clients gain results time and again. By developing strength, flexibility and postural balance whilst optimising body composition, Matt’s training approach will help you achieve your fitness goals. Matt is passionate about the benefits of sport and exercise and loves his work. Seeing his clients make progress and positive changes to their lives brings Matt great satisfaction and pride. Matt is a keen triathlete having competed in over 60 events. He has represented Great Britain at Age Group Level at both the Sprint and Olympic distances in Vancouver in 2008 and Budapest in 2010. Matt is also a British Triathlon Federation coach and has helped many people achieve success in a variety of endurance sports. This is what Matt says about Jamie Jamies goals require him to build muscle mass and lose body fat. It is notoriously difficult for people of most body types do do this simultaneously. Jamie had a body composition analysis with Ann Mather, Celebrity Nutritionist in March 2012. This showed that Jamie´s basal metabolic rate was lower than would be expected, that his lean body mass was also slightly lower, his body fat a little higher than would be expected, that he was retaining some water, and had about 9 lbs of body fat to lose! We are therefore going to complete a hypertrophy phase first to build muscle mass and then complete a fat loss phase to Increase muscle definition. As with all fitness goals that aim to make a change to body shape Jamie´s diet will play a huge role in his success. Jamies diet is already quite good and high in protein but during the build phase he needs to increase his daily calorific intake ensuring he accompanies the protein with good quality carbohydrate intake. A build phase is not the time to be on a carb restricted diet. Jamie´s good quality diet will be supplemented with Bio-Synergy protein shakes and supplements to ensure he is getting enough protein, bcaas and the correct nutrients to encourage muscle growth. In Jamie´s first session we completed a functional assessment of Jamie´s basic movement patterns to check there were no underlying issues that needed addressing before we began training. Jamie has done resistance training on and off for many years so his basic techniques are good and he has no major postural or flexibility issues. We then took weight, body fat and circumferential measurements at the chest, Bicep/triceps, waist and thighs so we can keep a track of progress. Jamie then completed a range of tests to determine his 10 rep max in a range of compound movements he will be using in training. These highlighted that Jamie has made the common mistakes typically made by guys who go to the gym. His legs have been fairly neglected for some time. Jamie is keen to build up his legs so will be addressing this in his training. He also has an imbalance between pushing and pulling strength. Whilst this hasn't caused Jamie any problems as yet it can have a major impact on posture, causing an appearance of rounded shoulders and could lead to an imbalance of the gleno-humeral joint at the shoulder potentially causing pain or injury in the future.
