Inside all of us there’s a 4-year-old rebel trying to get out – myself included. But a single act of defiance nearly ruined my results when I was shredding for my first bikini show. Luckily I learned from my mistake. Now, I have a simple mantra to ensure I get results, whether I’m shredding, building […]
This is a question I get asked a lot. Some people like the idea of having everything they eat planned out for them. Other folks are more attracted to the idea of doing it themselves, to favour the foods they like best. But what everybody wants to know is, which system will get you the […]
It took her sister having a baby to make chef Trish Lewis realise she had to do something about her life-threatening obesity (over 370 pounds). She wanted to spend time with her new-born nephew and that wasn’t going to happen unless she took action. She lost 100 pounds in one year. Listening to her today, […]
What do training dogs, bringing up children, and diet fads all have in common? Proof that there are no shortcuts to long-term success. Over the years there’s been no shortage of fashionable diets – Keto, Paleo, Intermittent Fasting, FODMAP – they come, they go, they rarely work in the long-term. And yet we keep trying […]

Butt, bum, arse, ass – whatever you call it, few parts of the body cause as much head-scratching and discussion as the rear end. Whether you like it big or small, we all aspire to having firm buttocks. My guest this week is known as The Glute Guy. Bret Contreras was teased at school for […]
Let me start by saying that vegans can be the nastiest bunch of b******s you’ll ever meet – some of them. So why did I decide to join them? Raised in a meat-loving family, I even had to apologise to my dad whenever I invited a vegetarian to dinner. And yes, to this day I […]
I’m getting asked this question a lot during lockdown. So in this week’s show I clear up some of the myths about how muscles grow, how long they stay toned, when they start to atrophy and what you can do about it. And how you DON’T even need anything as basic as a couple of […]
My guest this week only eats meat – that’s all. And when I first heard about her I dismissed her as a crazy fool. But when I heard her moving life story, I changed my opinion 180 degrees. This is the story of how Mikhaila – daughter of the famous professor of psychology, Jordan B. […]
