An explanation of the hybrid model to training/coaching we take and why…
You and I are still primitive creatures; our biology hasn’t changed that much over many many centuries.
And, genetically, we’re wired to live free and wild. This is partly why we like have fun in the mud, bond when enduring hardship together and tackle obstacle courses.
Obstacle course racing is the most primal sport due to the nature of endurance and the movements needed. It really is functional fitness.
A huge part of the modern-day culture wages war with our genetics and this typically leads to a sedentary life, weight gain, low energy and illness.
As a society, we’ve all become so sedentary that young people have no clue how to get in shape. And stay there.
In all likelihood, our culture will only worsen these conditions over the next few generations.
Now, I’m not suggesting downing tools and heading back to the forest…
Yet, you can have a refined balance between your primitive software and the all-surrounding comforts of the 21st century.
Actually, you can have the best of both.
And this, essentially, is the Primal philosophy: an ancestral approach to health and performance.
It’s the best of both worlds and allows your genetics to live in sync with our modern-day world.
Primal nutrition
Our eating habits affect the way we look, think and feel and that certainly determines our health and the outcomes we get in life and competition.
You may have heard? That 80% of our body composition is determined by the quality of the foods we put into your mouth.
Want to be, healthier, leaner and more muscular?
It starts with Primal eating here…
So, what is Primal nutrition?
Primal eating is an insanely tasty & fulfilling approach to Nutrition, like you’ve never seen before, or experienced.
The foods are incredibly nutrient dense, They are high in satiety. This is largely based on our ancestors and the region of the world they came from, but with the freedom and flexibility of the modern world foods.
This is real food eating, from the greatest foods on the planet. Foods that nourish us from the land, the sea, a bush or a tree.
Occasional and sensible indulgences such as red wine and dark chocolate and other great tasting foods add colour to your renewed palate experiences are a part of this way of life, which makes it all that more enjoyable and sustain compare to typical dieting approaches.
With Primal eating we’ll show you the way…
Learn to eat in abundance without having to track your calories and macros forever, or being a slave to an app, or particular “diet”. There are no restrictions with this approach. We will educate you here and learn what work best for you, taking into consideration your lifestyle, environment and the people in it, to create a winning environment for your nutritional success.
Learn about what foods work for you, and which ones don’t. This really is key! There isn’t a one size fits all approach here. What currently works for me, won’t necessarily work for you (or the next person).
The beauty of our coaching is that we work with you to find what works vs just giving you a set & rigid, inflexible plan to follow. We build this with you, for you, over many weeks and months. As you evolve, our approach will evolve with you and for you!

Primal movement & physical training
Looking to increase your physical fitness, conditioning, strength, prevent injuries, and build confidence in your abilities? At Primal Fitness, we specialize in training OCR racers and individuals who aspire to be healthier, fitter, and perform at their best both in life and in race competitions.
Our comprehensive program focuses on:
- Running/Conditioning
- Strength
- Skill & Movement

Because without incorporating all these components into your program, you risk, gaps setbacks and never truly performing at your best due to weaknesses and imbalances.
A well-rounded athlete doesn’t cut corners. They achieve results more efficiently and effectively with a specific, tailored approach.
An issue we often encounter is that individuals have multiple specialists, coaches, trainers who don’t synchronize their efforts. For example, working with a strength coach, a running coach, and a nutritionist who are all experts in their fields, but may not specialize in OCR. This lack of coordination can lead to problems such as conflicting advice, overtraining, and inefficient progress.
At Primal Fitness, we synchronize all of this into one plan, under one roof with all of our coaching team and community. This approach fosters better communication and collaboration among our specialists, ensuring a cohesive and effective training program.
Ultimately, the results are determined by the choices of the athlete/person and the execution of the plan. Let’s dive into these areas a little deeper…

Blending all these skills and physical abilities into a training program for this unique sport is an art, and it’s what we specialize in. Let us help you achieve your best in both life and race competitions.
“No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable ― Socrates

Nurturing Holistic Growth: The Power of Proximity, Presence, and Personal Accountability.
In the pursuit of personal growth and fulfillment, we often focus on developing skills, achieving goals, and honing our talents. While these aspects are undoubtedly crucial, true transformation goes beyond mere external accomplishments. It delves into the depths of our being, encompassing spiritual and emotional health, our relationships, and our sense of purpose. At the heart of this journey lie three foundational principles: proximity, presence, and personal accountability.
Proximity: The Essence of Power
The saying "proximity is power" encapsulates the profound impact that our environment and the people we surround ourselves with have on our lives. Beyond physical proximity, it extends to emotional and spiritual alignment.
When we immerse ourselves in supportive and uplifting communities, we create fertile ground for growth. Positive influences inspire us, challenge us, and propel us toward our aspirations. Conversely, toxic relationships can hinder our progress and drain our energy. By consciously choosing our company, we shape not only our external circumstances but also our inner landscape.
Presence: Cultivating Mindful Awareness
In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of distractions and demands. Yet, true fulfillment arises from being fully present in each moment. Whether at work, in relationships, or amidst competition, mindfulness cultivates a deep sense of awareness and engagement. Spiritual practices such as meditation, prayer, or mindfulness exercises foster this presence, grounding us in the here and now. By embracing the richness of each experience, we unlock the fullness of life's tapestry.
Personal Accountability: The Catalyst for Growth
Accountability serves as a cornerstone for growth and development. Having mentors, coaches, or trusted confidants who hold us to our commitments provides invaluable support on our journey. Yet, accountability extends beyond external guidance; it requires an internal commitment to take ownership of our choices and actions.
This self-awareness and willingness to face challenges head-on propel us toward our goals, fostering resilience and adaptability. By embracing accountability, we unlock our potential and chart a course toward our desired future.
Investing in Self-Growth: The Path to Wholeness
Recognizing the value of investing in ourselves is a pivotal step toward holistic growth. Seeking out coaching, mentorship, or spiritual guidance equips us with the tools and insights needed to navigate life's complexities.
It is an acknowledgment of our inherent worth and a commitment to nurturing our spiritual and emotional well-being. Through self-reflection, introspection, and continuous learning, we embark on a journey of self-discovery and self-mastery.
Embracing Holistic Growth
In weaving together the threads of proximity, presence, and personal accountability, we cultivate a tapestry of holistic growth.
Each principle interlaces with the others, forming a resilient foundation upon which to build our lives. By surrounding ourselves with positive influences, staying present in each moment, and holding ourselves accountable, we unlock our fullest potential.
This journey of self-discovery is not linear but cyclical, marked by growth, setbacks, and renewal. Yet, through it all, we emerge stronger, wiser, and more aligned with our true selves.
In conclusion, nurturing holistic growth requires a multifaceted approach that encompasses spiritual, emotional, and relational dimensions.
By embracing the principles of proximity, presence, and personal accountability, we embark on a journey of transformation that transcends mere achievement. It is a journey of becoming—becoming more authentic, more resilient, and more fully alive.
As we navigate this path, may we be guided by wisdom, inspired by possibility, and anchored in the depths of our being.
"Embracing the innate desire for community and connection, we recognize humans as inherently tribal beings.
