Yes! I couldnt explain but you've put it perfectly. The personalised bikinis and budgies were the cherry on top. Desperate measures

James smith #3 Not a life coach, pisses the bed. Dont ask me anything hard, let's talk about drugs instead.

So interesting about Sinead. I know her from Sydney. I’m not surprised people were not keen. She had zero time on the gym floor (she did a course then started working at a gym on the beaches but couldn’t get clients) and she also put a lot of the weight back on she lost and hasn’t worked in a gym since but then I saw her pop up at the coaches dinner in Sydney. Weird. She isn’t experienced enough. I wouldn’t pay money to be coached by former winner of his challenge who seemingly didn’t stick to it?!

I'm a bit confused about her too. She seems to chop and change a lot. Got a job at MNU but didn't seem to stay long. Got a job in a gym but then I saw her posting that she had quit her job and was going to be self employed. Presumably as a PT not attached to a gym but I'm not sure. She's definitely gained some of the weight back I agree. She looks about half way between her before and after photos. I've posted before about whether I'd like Sinead as my coach and I still think the same. On one hand she knows more about what it's like to be new to exercise and struggling with weight but I'm not sure if she should be put in the same league (and price point) as the coaches that have been there since the start of JSA.

So the latest big name guest on Diren's latest podcast is... another one of his mates. Quelle surprise!

If Sven is essentially someone playing a part, what about the rest of them? Is James a character made up by Ricky Gervais? There is definitely a bit of a David Brent vibe to his insta persona.

I used to follow Sven on insta, thought the was really funny. But hearing him on the podcast - just another desperate try hard, and how fucking gross that he has sex with a girl who fancied sven, and stayed in character. Is that even legal?!

I wish I hadn’t read here that sven was really welsh and heard it on the podcast first! I actually enjoy direns podcasts with his friends, I find it interesting hearing about Paul, Lucy etc I’d rather that than a some pt but maybe that’s because I’m not in to fitness at all and randomly started following James after he did that post about the plus size model on the magazine and some how ended up following them all!
 
Still can't believe he publicly stated he pissed his womans bed as if it's hilarious...then tells people to buy his book/take him seriously? You're 32 lad

I’m a member of JSAM and it’s been the best weight loss plan I’ve done. I’m now down 7lbs after 3 weeks and haven’t had to really give anything up. I find the group really supportive and motivational and the trainers have been great.

However, the fangirling is SO nauseating. Someone put a post up the other day of James topless in a locker room with a bunch of other twats and they all started creaming their pants. I don’t find him attractive in the slightest! What am I missing??

I was wondering if I should raise the bereavement issue but decided not to as they are all super cliquey and I’ll probably get booted out.

So frustrated that the plan is going so well for me when it’s headed by a complete twat! I’m almost embarrassed to tell my friends

I know three people who have left off the back of it, while screenshooting their plans before going

Creaming their pants
No I don’t find him attractive either. There was a post on ladbible earlier in the week where he showed a complete lack of humour over “gym fails” and all I could think was “mate, you look shit. Ditch the drugs”

There wasn't many positive comments on the post either if I remember correctly
 
Yeah I just saw that lad bible video today people were quite nasty in the comments. I became a fan of him during lockdown when I saw the period video he made on Facebook and I started listening to his podcasts, bought his book lol now I feel embarrassed for fangirling because of the whole jsa cult and the fair points podcasts with that comment to the grieving lady
