(00:44) This week, I'm excited to welcome Brian to the podcast. Brian is an entrepreneur, personal trainer, nutritionist, bestselling author, and host of the Brian podcast. He's currently one of Ireland's most influential thought leaders on all things health, fitness, and nutrition. In this episode, we discussed the key areas to address when wanting to transform your body and mindset for the long-term, including nutrition, movement, sleep, and so much more. Over to Brian.

(01:15) Hey, guys. This is Stu from 180 Nutrition, and I am delighted to welcome Brian to the podcast. Brian, how are you, mate?

Brian

(01:23) I am fantastic, Stu. Really looking forward to chatting.

Stu

(01:25) Yeah. No, look, this is awesome. So I'm in Australia, you're in Ireland. Morning for you, evening for me, but we're both super pumped. But first up, so for all of our listeners there that may not be familiar with you or your work ... and I've had a look online, and you're doing some big stuff and reaching a lot of people. So for all of those guys that may not be familiar, I'd love it if you could just tell us a little bit about yourself, please.

Brian

(01:48) Yeah, so kind of elevator pitch. I'm an online fitness coach nutritionist that helps people online in terms of, normally, body composition or sports performance are kind of my two areas of focus. But I'm a former elementary school, primary school teacher. That's what I did 10 years ago. And for two of those years, I basically worked as a teacher during the day, personal trainer in the gym at nighttime. And over the space of the last nine to 10 years, I made the transition out to full-time one-on-one personal trainer, and then into the online space in 2016. And I've been doing that ever since. And since then, I've had a podcast, which has done very well in terms of the amount of downloads. Very similar to you, Stu, and trying to serve people. We're very similar. We have a lot of overlap with guests.
