    #145. Ozempic & GLP-1s: are we missing the point?

    GLP-1 medications like Ozempic have changed the weight loss landscape - but are we using them properly? In this episode, I break down how GLP-1s work, why they're so effective and the concerns around using them without proper lifestyle intervention. I also discuss muscle loss, nutrient deficiencies, weight re-gain and why these medications should support long-term behaviour change - not replace it.PMID: 41500720, 41549912, 40584822For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #144. Approach vs avoidance-based goals

    If you've ever said things like "I need to stop snacking after dinner" or "I need to cut out chocolate," or "I need to spend less time scrolling Instagram’ and you’re still struggling to follow through, it's likely because you're focussing on everything you want to avoid, rather than things you should be doing more of. In this episode I walk you through how to shift your narrative from avoidance-based goals to approach-based goals, and how setting approach-based goals can make achieving your goals a whole lot easier. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #132. How to eat more

    Whether you’re in a build phase, have high energy requirements due to your job or sport or are simply trying to gain weight, being told that you just need to ‘eat more’ is about as helpful as telling someone in a diet phase that they just need to ‘eat less.’ So what can we do to make eating in a calorie surplus a little bit easier? Well, in this episode I thought I’d take you through some of the strategies I use to help me hit my current calorie target (which is 3500 cals - and that's a lot!), as well as some strategies I use with my coaching clients to help them meet their energy needs. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #131. Are you under-fuelling?

    Here's the thing - you don't need to be losing weight, or underweight, or eating in a calorie deficit, to be under-fuelling. Under-fuelling isn't just about not eating enough - it's about not eating enough for what your body needs to do, and you don't need to be an athlete to be under-fuelling.Here are some of the most common signs you might be under-fuelling, and how to turn it around to ensure you're actually giving your body the energy it needs to function in all aspects of life. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #130. More reps or more weight?

    When it comes to progressing your training, one of the most common questions I get asked is if it's better to do more reps, or should you increase the weight. There are pros and cons to both, so in this episode I'll look at both sides, look at what makes sense in a variety of situations, and also show you how to decide what's best for you and your training. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #106. Weight loss vs fat loss: is there a difference?

    Weight loss and fat loss are two terms that are often used interchangeably, however it is important that we understand and are able to differentiate between them. Our scale weight can fluctuate for many reasons, however this is not always going to be due to an immediate increase or decrease in your body fat levels. In this episode I look at the difference between weight loss and fat loss, why it matters, and also cover some of the many factors that can contribute to weight loss that don't always lead to a decrease in fat. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #105. Why your all-or-nothing mindset is ruining your progress

    If your response to missing a workout or eating one off-plan meal or snack is to write off the rest of the week, you’re stuck in an all-or-nothing mindset - and it is killing your progress. How do I know this? Because I’ve been there. This approach only ever leads to inconsistency, frustration, and burnout instead of real results. In this episode, I want to break down why this mindset is holding you back and how I would go about building a more sustainable approach to training and nutrition.For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #102. What to do if you go over your calories in a diet phase

    If you’ve ever been in the middle of diet phase and had the occasional day where food has gotten the better of you and you’ve wondered (a) where the entire packet of Tim Tams just disappeared to and (b) how on earth you’re going to make up for the fact that you've just blown your daily calorie budget out of the ball park, then this episode is for you.For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #101. How to manage a bad training session

    Bad training sessions. We all have them. Those days when you’re just not feeling it, would rather not be there, have zero motivation to get through another set of squats and couldn’t possibly face another lunge. Tune in to find out what you can do if you find yourself in the middle of a session that you’re just not vibing, and what steps you can take to manage your day to ensure the emotions from one bad session don’t flow over to negatively impact the rest of your day. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #100. Q&A: Muscle ups, 1RMs, PBs, low energy and building muscle

    When I started this podcast about 2 years ago, I never had any expectations about how long I’d run it for or how far it would go. My main purpose behind this was just to have fun, share my thoughts and hopefully help break down some of the misinformation around training and nutrition that is now so prevalent on social media. So I'm super excited to have hit 100 episodes! Thank you to everyone who submitted questions for this week's Q&A, and to everyone who has listened to, shared or given me feedback on episodes along the way. For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #99. What goes into my pre-workout (and why I make my own)

    After posting on my IG story last week that I make my own pre-workout, I've had a lot of questions as to what I include and also why I choose to make my own rather than purchasing a pre-made powder. So this episode answers both of those questions for you! Just a quick reminder: what I include in my pre workout is specific to my needs and my goals, so please do your own research (and ask lots of questions!). There are also good pre-workouts available, so you definitely don't have to make your own (this is just my personal preference).

    #98. How many days per week should you really be training?

    Have you ever wondered how many days each week you should really be training? Or perhaps you’ve seen your friend training 5 or 6 days a week, and you wonder if you need to do the same in order to get results? In this episode I’ll run through all the factors that we need to consider when it comes to training frequency - there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to how many days per week you should be training, but this episode should provide you with some guidelines that you can use to help you determine what is going to be most effective for you.

    #97. How to build as much muscle as possible in 12 months

    Building muscle is a really slow process. Unlike dieting, where we can visibly see positive changes in as little as 2-4 weeks, you may not actually see any visible muscle growth for 4-6 months, or potentially longer. So if your goal is to build as much muscle as possible in the next 12 months, this episode will walk you through the key things that I would be focussing on personally, or with any of my clients that have that the goal of gaining muscle. Because the process of building muscle is actually really simple when you know what you need to do!For online coaching enquiries, questions or feedback, please contact me via the links below.

    #96. How to build an effective warm-up

    Although I think most people understand the importance of warming up before their workout, I feel that less of us know exactly what to include in our warm up to make it effective. In this episode I cover:Why we should be warming up;How much time we really need for an effective warm up;What an ineffective warm up looks like;3 simple steps to building an effective warm up. If performance and movement quality are a priority for you, then you should be warming up in some capacity. This episode is going to show you how you can build a quick and effective warm-up in 5-10 minutes and ensure you’re getting the most out of your body and your workout.
