I absolutely love coaching.

It’s an incredible feeling to be able to pass your knowledge on to someone and watch them thrive and improve.

Not only physically, but mentally and emotionally as well.

Especially when you do it with those who come here on holiday.

Those people are lulled into a false sense of security and relaxation by the tranquil beauty of my little island.

Hot summer days, beautiful beaches, endless blue seas, peaceful starry nights – what could possibly be lurking on this quiet little rock?

Well, that is exactly what Kirill thought.

And I was quite happy to prove him wrong.

Poor guy never saw it coming.

He thought he was coming for a walk in the park and I took him for a white-knuckle ride on the Sledgehammer rollercoaster.

Think of it as an international butt-kicking if you will.

Kidding aside, the email he wrote me is a keeper.

The progress we made together from session to session was intoxicating.

It’s very appreciated to see your time and your coaching being cherished by your students.

Of course, people like Kirill make it a pleasure.

No matter how hard I worked him, he just kept the faith, did all I asked and kept coming back for more.

He listens, he genuinely wants to improve, and he just gives it everything he has in the barrel.

When you have someone like that, it brings out the best in everyone.

Kirill, it was an honest pleasure my man.

You can come back here anytime. Plenty more left to do. We’ll smack that lazy off you.

Нет коротких путей туда, куда стоит стремиться.

Well, that is what I think.

Now, here is Kirill’s take on what really happened after that fateful summer’s day decision.

*******************************

The Re- Invention programme at The BodyForge turned out to be my surprise finding during my stay in Gozo.

I was just looking for a gym to keep fit, but instead I got absolutely new gym experience.

Donatello has this fantastic ability to turn you into Superman. The way he supports you, guides you and make you believe in yourself is incredible. His passion is contagious. You go into a workout and give 150%.

I started doing sports at the age of 12, and since then I’ve been training in many disciplines, including: Kick-boxing, boxing, muay-thai, running, swimming, and weightlifting.

However, I’ve never met a coach who can so confidently push you beyond your limits. That is a very rare quality and I have really achieved new heights after every training session. I could feel muscle-growth after every training session. I’ve never seen anything like that before. In just 1 month, my approach to weightlifting has changed completely.

If not for other commitments back home, I’d happily stay and train with Don for as long as I could. It’s honestly worth every single second.

I’d suggest to anyone willing to gain muscle mass or to simply have an incredible coaching experience to be coached by Donatello, because he is by far the best coach I’ve had in my life. He delivers miles more than anything I have ever had even in London gyms.

Don, thanks for that wonderful month and I am looking to come back sometime soon for some more amazing time at The BodyForge.

Kirill
