I sat with good from Chief Brabon. Long considered the pioneer of bootcamp fitness training in Australia, Chief has been at the forefront of high-intensity results based training for close to 25yrs. While spending a short time in the Royal Australian Army as an Infantry Soldier, Chief established the country's first bootcamp fitness program, which has grown to become the longest running program of it's kind in the world. Chief's reputation has spread around the world, having been featured on the cover of US fitness magazine My Mad Methods, making a guest appearance as a trainer on Biggest Loser Asia, and featuring on BBC mini-series Road to Glory. In 2013 GQ Magazine named Chief as one of their Top 20 Game Changers, along with such respected individuals as Baz Luhrmann, Cate Blanchett and Joel Edgerton. Chief has contributed to dozen's of magazines and has acted as Resident Fitness expert/ Transformation Coach for publications such as Cleo, UltraFitness, Contact and GQ, and was recently asked to join the expert advisory board for Men's Health.

This week I chat to Chief Brabon who I had on the show back in October of 2016. This time I happened to be in Sydney and so went to Chief’s house and we sat and shot the breeze about everything that’s happened in his life since that time. Chief has been in the fitness world for a long long time. In fact he was a trainer for the original Gladiators TV show back in the original series where his job was get to the Gladiators themselves ready for the show. They’re athletes but truth is no-one looks good in a one piece grey lycra so Chief had to do what he could to improve that situation and look after the viewing audiences optical nerves in the process. Duty of care and all that jazz. lol These days Chief has hit fame as the celebrity trainer of choice. He really hit the headlines with the amazing transformation of Guy Sebastion and his wife Jules. Then a host of other celebrities where he gets them ready for upcoming roles or body transformation reveals and the like. The best part is he uses a system that YOU can use. Check out his website www.8weekstowow.com.au That’s the figure 8 You can also buy the book 8 Weeks to Wow. I purchased it from booktopia and it arrived the same week. Chief is a great guy and you will get a lot from our chat about what it takes to transform your mind and your body as well as how to build a brand based off being authentically yourself, having a passion for what you do and being a constant and lifetime learner.

OUR BELIEF BECOMES THEIR BELIEF. Oz was lovingly welcomed to the lounge room of Chief Brabon and Emilie Brabon-Hames for this week's Words With Oz Podcast. Emilie and Chief have an extensive history in the training, bootcamp and coaching world but have more recently been making headlines for their work transforming some of Australia's most well-known humans. As we are quick to find out, their passion lies in a standard of service delivered to all clients subject to their criteria for wanting, needing and dedicating yourself to train with them. The transformation these two provide is never just physical and it need be something you want, desire and understand. Chief and Emilie's specific essay question was: "Long lasting Transformation is an inside-out journey. Is this true? And if so, at what moments do you see that those you work with comprehend the concept?" We spoke on their history in this space, the differing issues every one faces during a transformation, what it's like to be so dedicated you drive to work in the rain at 4am, some of the wiser and not so wise decisions, and plenty more...

The Chief of Transformation. Chief Brabon is one of those rare coaches who has a natural, almost an unteachable skill of assessing a person’s physical needs and abilities and then structuring the program so perfectly that success is guaranteed. I say unteachable, because what he knows you won’t and can’t learn in a Certificate course or even a degree course. What he knows, and the insight he has developed is a product of 20+ years in the trenches of the Fitness Industry. Day-in, day-out, teaching, training, educating and empowering people to get the most out of themselves. He is a coach in the true sense of the word. Currently, he and his wife, Emile, are at the forefront of Celebrity Transformation coaching, with celebrity clients such as James Stewart, Guy Sebastian, Osher Gunsberg and Larry Emdur gracing the cover of Men’s Health Magazine. We talk about his style of training, his own physical and mental injuries, (that’s both an interesting and horrifying story) and how he has developed discipline, structure, and training to form and a life-long dedication towards Ultra-Marathon running and personal improvement to mold him into one of Australia’s most sought-after coaches. He’s a straight shooter, a no bullshit, no muss, no fuss type of guy, but don’t let his relaxed demeanor fool you….if you train with Chief, you’ll certainly know who’s the boss.

Chief Brabon is the Fitness Director at Men’s Health Australia, the CEO of TransformationCoach.com and CEO of Original Bootcamp.It was with Chief Brabon and his wife Emilie Brabon-Hames that I worked out every day for ten weeks to achieve my cover shot of Men’s Health Australia.When you spend an hour of your day with someone every day - you get to know them pretty well, and I got to know that both Chief and his wife Em have remarkable stories to tell.We’ll hear Em’s story next week, it’s compelling and a transformation tale in itself - but this week it’s all about Chief.Chief and Em are the team behind the biggest selling Men’s Health Australia covers of the last few years - Larry Emdur, James Stewart and yes - Guy Sebastian.In fact, while I was doing my transformation I sat down with Guy and we talked all about the mental aspect of how doing this changed the way he works and lives. Check that episode out for more.Chief is a man who’s driven by a desire for knowledge. He’s traveled the world to train with and learn from the best in industry, and then passes that knowledge on to the people he works with - be in the parks and beaches every morning for his Original Boot Camp workouts, or during his 1-1 transformation coaching like he and I did.His story is one that takes some turns you might not expect.A former military man, he had a significant injury in his 20s which left him with chronic pain that he still lives with every single day.How he overcame that pain and transformed his own life is what this conversation is all about.We don’t pull any punches and we do talk about suicide in this conversation - so if you or anyone you know needs support please call Lifeline on 13 11 14.You can find Chief on instagram where he’s always posting workouts and the like - @chiefbrabon, and for more about the program that I went on - transformationcoach.com .I hope you enjoy this conversation with Chief Brabon.
