Episode #21 - From Wings to Weights: How Flight Attendant Sean O’Connor's Fitness Journey Transformed His Life!
In this weeks episode we are joined by a very close friend of mine but that’s not how our journey started. Sean and myself first began our friendship as client and coach as I guided him on his first ever fitness transformation with The 365 Physique, 15kgs later and seeing visible abs for the first time ever at 35 years old. The most incredible part about Sean taking a stance on his health and fitness and deciding to make a change is that he also works for the worlds leading airline as an aviation professional. He has over 17 years industry experience and for those who know, it takes its toll on your body, health and mindset IF you aren’t making conscious choices to keep in check. We talk about his transformation journey, juggling his flying hours with training, nutrition and fatigue but we also go into more detail about how life is working at 40,000 ft and some pros and cons to a job that is so often looked for by millions around the world. Listen to his journey! Topics: - Making a change - a choice ! - Resisting easy comforts and putting your mind to it. - Losing fat then building muscle, how long did it take? - Managing health and wellness alongside aviation. - Cabin crew pros and cons - AND MORE Sean O’Connor https://instagram.com/mrseanoc?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==The 365 Physique
