My name is Ian Nottage and I started EmbraceTheJourney Coaching in August of 2021 to impact as many men and women that are currently struggling with building sustainability and consistency in their fitness journey. I grew up as the skinny kid all through-out school and I didn't pickup my first dumbbell until I was 18 years old. I am 26 now and the moment I picked up my first dumbbell I fell in love with the opportunity to be able to transform your body completely just by simply incorporating an enjoyable workout program and simply eating more mindful. I lacked a lot of confidence and what I realized through weightlifting was as I become more athletic and stacked on more lean muscle mass my confidence and the way I viewed myself climbed drastically. To the point where it made me feel so confident in who I am, I know a lot of other people can benefit from learning how to live a more healthy and active lifestyle. So, my goal is to spread the knowledge I have accumulated over the many years of trial and error, as well as the countless amount of research articles I have read to acquire the most recent knowledge regarding fitness.
