In Season 2, episdode 4 - Fitness News: some interesting stories which we have spotted.
Then we discuss the structure and failings of the back and essentially the spine. What we can do to improve spine health and strengthen what is one of natures design faults. Around 4 in 5 (that's a whopping 80 per cent) of adults experience low back pain at some point in their lifetimes. It is the most common cause of job-related disability and a leading contributor to missed work days.

EPISODE: 18  - STALLING or PLATEAUING: How do you assess progress?

How are you assessing your progress, and what do you do if this progress comes to a grinding halt? In this episode we discuss tactics for tracking your goals and how to act if all is not going as it should be.

What to expect from a Personal Trainer in this regard? This applies to those trying to get leaner, but also to those who have performance as a goal. If you're not tracking any statistics, how do you know if your training is working or not? Could you be working more effectively?

We also talk about our "Obesity Lifeline Challenge". Do you have a member of your family or a friend/work colleague who:
- Is Obese?

SUPPLEMENTS:

In this weeks episode we discuss the multi-billion pound industry that is the Supplement market. Some are not worth your time and effort, some do work and on some, the jury is still out. We try to shed some light on these and talk about where WE got suckered in ourselves in our youth. We got ripped off, so you don't have to!

We also talk about some legendary supplements that were so crazy potent, that thankfully they're now illegal, trust us...this is a good thing!
