Client Case Study  – Camilla’s Story

Client Case Study – Camilla’s Story

Author: Pete Jacobs September 19, 2019 Duration: 20:08
Our LY.F family inspire Pete and I everyday, giving us that warm fuzzy feeling of gratitude, and love for doing what we do. Camilla is one of our LY.F Stars who has just finished the 6 Week Life Change Program. Her health and performance journey over the last 6 weeks has been inspiring to say the least. With Camilla’s consent we want to share her health story of trials, and wins with you. For a more in-depth article on Camilla's journey, click here to head to www.liveyourownfit.com HOW DID CAMILLA SET HERSELF UP FOR GLOBAL HEALTH & PERFORMANCE SUCCESS? Camilla established her foundation to success - her WHY, WHAT, HOW Acknowledged roadblocks and what she could do to overcome them Established her bio individuality – through a two week elimination protocol in the first two weeks of the program, Camilla established her individual nutritional plan Recognised that she is an athlete in LIFE, she deserves to live her best life, to her full potential. Discovered how to ‘biohack’ her physiology for the results she wanted. i.e She increased her sleep by an hour, from 6 hours to 7hours. KEY MESSAGE If you are in an energy deficient state your body will go into fright/flight mode, causing a negative domino effect on your hormonal system, ultimately resulting in ‘nervous system fatigue’/ ‘adrenal system fatigue. Camilla was energy deficient – her resting metabolic rate required 1,875calories daily. She was only consuming around 1200. This causes stress hormones to rise, increasing inflammation and inhibiting fat burning and fat loss, amongst countless other ill effects.   CAMILLA'S RESULTS AFTER THE 6 WEEK LIFE CHANGE PROGRAM Camilla has lost 8cm around her waist. Her rings are looser, and her shoes feel bigger Her energy levels are higher, and she seldom experiences the 4pm slump Her slight anxiety has gone, and she is attracting even better things into her life Her stamina has improved She is waking up refreshed and renewed, experiencing high quality sleep (increased to 7hrs), and no longer snores Camilla is ready to try a resistance training program Camilla realised she had been in an 'energy deficient state', meaning previously she had not been consuming the calories needed at rest, let alone to function optimally throughout the day. CAMILLA’S WORDS THREE WEEKS INTO THE 6 WEEK LIFE CHANGE PROGRAM Huge thanks to Jaimie and Pete for their amazing Live Your Own Fit Program.  I’m an unfit, busy wife and mum and I work full-time.  In summary, there isn’t much time for anything extra.  Jaimie has helped me lose cm’s, find more energy and we are only three weeks in.   As I’m not an athlete (AT ALL), I didn’t know if the Program was right for me, or if Jaimie would understand – she has amazed me and TOTALLY gets it.  Her unwavering support and excitement is infectious, AND her ability to come up with a healthy filling meal in under 5mins is magic.   Some days are more difficult than others, but with all the information provided, it doesn’t take long to get back on track.  I highly highly recommend the LYOF program to everyone – including unfit busy mums, who look at a push bike in horror – maybe soon!!!   If you have any questions you would like to ask or feel like you would like to discover your 'best self', then reach out......we are only a button away!   Yours in health and performance - with love Jaimielle Jacobs

Finding a sustainable path to better health often feels like navigating a maze of conflicting advice. Live Your Own Fit | LYF Performance cuts through that noise with grounded conversations led by Pete Jacobs, a World Ironman Triathlon Champion, and his wife Jaimielle. This isn't just about extreme athleticism; it's about the practical, balanced choices that build a resilient life. You'll hear discussions that connect the dots between nutrition, daily movement, and the mental frameworks needed to stick with it. Pete naturally draws from his own journey to the pinnacle of endurance sports, not to prescribe a champion's regimen, but to share the broader lessons on mindset and perseverance that apply to anyone. The podcast operates on the principle that true fitness is deeply personal-it's the energy to keep up with your kids, the clarity to focus at work, and the vitality to enjoy your days. Each episode offers a blend of personal anecdotes, actionable lifestyle tips, and thoughtful dialogue aimed at helping you define what performance means in your own life. Tune in for a refreshingly honest take on building health from the ground up, where the goal is lasting well-being, not just a temporary fix.
