Couch to coached - AWARD WINNING running podcast.

Season 3 Ep 84 –Dr. Hussain Al-Zubaidi on Lifestyle, Longevity & Lacing Up: From Prescriptions to Parkruns

This week, Rob and Ben sit down with the inspiring Dr. Hussain Al-Zubaidi — GP, triathlete, and lifestyle medicine champion — for a conversation that goes way beyond the surgery doors.

From running ultramarathons to helping patients transform their lives through movement, mindset, and real food, Dr. Hussein shares how he went from the traditional prescription model to leading a revolution in holistic healthcare. As the clinical lead for parkrun health partnerships and a regular face on Channel 4’s Steph’s Packed Lunch, he’s on a mission to prove that prevention really is the best medicine.

The lads dive into the six pillars of health, why age should never be a barrier to getting active, and how running supports both physical and mental wellbeing. Plus, hear about Dr. Hussein’s own running journey — including his most brutal race and how he finds balance amidst it all.

If you're curious about how to live longer, move more, and feel better — this one’s for you.

🎥 Don’t forget—you can watch the podcast live on YouTube every Monday at 20:30!
