Sober trainer Adam 'Lubbs' Lubbock fights Industry Silence!

from Menace to Sobriety · host Daniel O'Reilly

Dan chats with personal trainer Adam 'Lubbs' Lubbock about taking a stand against the fitness industry's silence on alcohol. Adam shares why he feels compelled to speak out, even if it means losing clients and followers. He provides insight into sobriety, discipline and the connections between mental and physical health. Listen as Adam inspires people in the fitness realm and beyond to have the courage to address society's unhealthy relationship with alcohol and prioritise true well-being, from physical health to mental strength. KEY TAKEAWAYS The fitness industry stays silent on alcohol to retain popularity and relatability, despite the harm this causes. True health/fitness ambassadors must speak out. Sobriety requires internal discipline fuelled by self-respect. It translates to success in other areas like fitness. Helping people grapple with sobriety issues has an immeasurable positive impact. Silence perpetuates harm. Alcohol numbs pain rather than addressing root causes. Sobriety brings clarity to elevate health and happiness. The fitness industry should promote sobriety as foundational to well-being, not enable unhealthy drinking habits. BEST MOMENTS  "I have such a moral obligation and responsibility to the world to just do what I can to even up a little bit because, you know, we don't have too many things on our job description list as a personal trainer." "How you do anything is how you do everything right? I promise I didn't read a book of quotes on the way." "When you stop drinking, one of the things I noticed quite quickly was I gained an almost obnoxious level of self-respect." "Discipline is hard but it's fucking way easier than being ill-disciplined. That's really hard." "If your discipline goes from going, 'Oh, I'll have a few drinks,' then that discipline is gone to eating, sniffing a bag of gear, cheating, fucking whatever."
