It's Your Revival

We're back! A jam packed episode of the It's Your Revival podcast including:

Top 5 is back and this week in celebration of Halloween we chat through scary movie characters.

In our Muscle Mail-in we discuss misinformation provided by some PTs around so-called 'fat loss' workouts and why fat loss is all about diet.

Finally, Martin puts keyboard warriors into Room 101.

Welcome back to It’s Your Revival, episode 16! We’re back with more chat and a bit of chaos, as we dive into weekends away, travel tips, and some seriously questionable snack choices. This week, Sally shares her Eurostar adventure to Bruges, complete with a high-tech city tour and some fascinating stops. 

We also tackle a food challenge with American pickles. Not all pickles are created equal, and some may be better left on the shelf! 

Plus, we’ve got another hilarious top five, this time diving into Netflix TV shows. Will we agree on the best series? Doubt it! I mean we can't even agree on the brief!

As always, we answer your questions in the Muscle Mail-in, where we talk all things fitness - this week with a chat on cholesterol. So grab a drink, settle in, and enjoy the episode!

Welcome back to It’s Your Revival! This week, we’re embracing the autumn vibes as we dive into a lively chat about everything from Halloween plans to Christmas preparations (yes, it’s already that time of year!). Is it worth the hassle of cooking, or should you just let M&S do the heavy lifting this year?

But that’s just the beginning – we take a spooky detour into Halloween decorations, then, it’s time for some nostalgia as we discuss our top animated films of all time.

And of course, we couldn’t leave you hanging without answering your Muscle Mail-in questions. This week, we tackle food addictions. We’re also dishing out some advice on staying in shape, navigating tricky food choices, and how to stay on track when temptation is all around.

Grab a cuppa, sit back, and enjoy the chat!

Hey and welcome back to Episode 14 of the It's Your Revival podcast with your hosts Martin and Sally! Settle in, because this week’s episode is packed with hilarious stories, a bit of randomness, and as always some no-nonsense fitness advice.

This week we're bringing you a new segment! The Top Five countdowns, starting with our favourite bands. Expect some throwbacks to the 90s, guilty pleasures, and of course, some heated debates. Does Oasis make the cut? You’ll have to listen in to find out.

If that wasn’t enough, Martin shares a mad story about the time he almost got murdered. Yes, you read that right. It involves Eurovision, a random woman with a knife, and a police showdown. Trust us, you won’t believe how that one ends.

And of course, it wouldn’t be a proper episode without some fitness talk. We tackle the myth of “fat-burning” heat rooms and why sweating doesn’t equal fat loss. Martin explains why you shouldn’t rely on sweat to shed extra pounds.

We’re also answering your questions in our Muscle Mail-in segment, so stay tuned for some valuable advice, whether you’re a fitness newbie or a seasoned gym-goer.

So grab a drink, settle in, and get ready for an hour of laughs, nostalgia, and some unexpected plot twists. Don’t forget to like, subscribe, and drop your top five bands in the comments – we want to know who makes your list!

Welcome to Episode 13 of the It's Your Revival podcast with Martin and Sally – and let’s just say it’s going to be an interesting one because, guess what? We’re diving in headfirst with zero prep – so this could either be a disaster or absolute genius. Spoiler alert: it’s the latter 😏

First up, we kick things off with a bit of wedding nostalgia as Martin reminisces about his totally improvised wedding speech. Seriously, who needs notes when you can just wing it? But would he do the same thing again? Hmm... maybe not when it comes to that champagne sorbet. Let’s just say the palate cleanser didn’t exactly cleanse any palates.

Then we get into the good stuff – Sally’s been out in the wild, embracing the joys (and challenges) of camping. Armed with a new awning and the family in tow, it’s been a true adventure. Between van troubles, forgotten pillows, and climbing Snowdon in pouring rain with the kids, it’s safe to say there were plenty of memorable moments. Ever wondered what it’s like to scale a mountain while drenched to the bone? Sally’s got the full story!

Meanwhile, Martin’s been channeling his inner race car driver – or rather, supporting Orlando in his racing journey. From his first race to mastering those tricky corners, it’s been all systems go. Martin’s even planning to go full-on pro mode with helmets, Bluetooth comms, and everything Orlando needs to keep pushing that pedal to the metal.

And for Revival gym lovers out there, we’ve got some exciting updates about the big refurb project. Martin’s been hard at work making major changes – think new spaces, upgraded equipment, and even a fancy new physio room. The gym’s getting a facelift, and you’re going to love it!

Of course, it wouldn’t be an episode without your favourite Muscle Mail-in segment. We’re answering your burning questions – from why you might not be seeing results at the gym (hint: it’s probably your diet) to balancing fitness with a social life (yes, you can still hit your favourite restaurants). Plus, we dish out some advice on how to handle those awkward gym encounters when you keep bumping into your ex – because who needs extra drama while working on their gains?

So sit back, grab your protein shake, and get ready for an episode packed with laughs, a few fails, and plenty of fitness tips. Whether you’re listening from the treadmill or just chilling on the sofa, you won’t want to miss this one!

Have we got a treat for all the ice-cream lovers out there this week! We know it’s cutting season and many of us are prepping our summer bodies but that doesn’t mean we don’t fancy a treat now and then. In this week’s episode we are taste testing low-calorie ice-cream, Halo Top against the big boy, Ben & Jerry’s. Watch to find out whether we think Halo Top can pack as much flavour for almost 100 less calories per 100g! 

Revival 101 is back! Two more life unnecessaries are dumped, but do you agree?

And we chat about some of the other reasons why the gym or taking part in fitness activities can be great for everyone. Whether it’s to help you through a rough time, deal with life’s daily stresses or otherwise, we know exercise can really help with boosting your mood.

Thinking about business, we also discuss the difference between a fixed or growth mindset and how competition is good.

In our Muscle Mail-in, we offer advice on rehabilitation following a slight herniated disc.
