  • How To Get Lean For Your Summer Holiday - #015

    Yusef from PropaneFitness.com joins me as we navigate the perilous waters of cutting for a holiday.

    We've all been there. Drilling our diet into the ground on 800kcals a day only to see our condition evaporate in the sunshine as soon as we look at a Corona or take a mouthful of that first hungover Burger King.

    Expect to find out our hard-learned solutions after years of making errors during a summer cut, get a grip on a training protocol and calorie deficit which allows you to still function pre-holiday, and learn the optimal weekly weight loss target you should be aiming for to safely lose fat.

  • The Dark Truth About Human Mobility - Dr Quinn Henoch - #013

    Quinn Henoch is a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Head of Sports Rehabilitation for Juggernaut Training Systems and Founder of ClinicalAthlete.com

    It's very hard to find a definitive answer about what strategies work at improving mobility. From stretching to foam rolling, resistance bands to hanging therapy, there are a lot of approaches, but for every article claiming X is effective, another claims Y.

    Today we put the lacrosse balls down, and look to science for the answer. Expect to learn what ACTUALLY improves your mobility, why your warmup routine can be shorter than you think and why that £500 Massage Gun might not be a worthwhile investment.

  • Creating The Mindfulness Gap, The Fundamentals Of Meditation and How To Deepen Your Practise - Cory Allen - #012

    Cory Allen is an author, meditation teacher and host of The Astral Hustle Podcast. He is also the creator of my favourite Guided Meditation Course www.ReleaseIntoNow.com and has completed thousands and thousands of hours of mindfulness practise during his life.

    Meditation is a little bit like a stretching routine; it's something most people know they probably should do, but due to a lack of information, fear of feeling silly or misconceptions about what it entails, the barriers to entry can be prohibitive to starting.

    In this episode I ask Cory to explain the fundamental components of mindfulness practise, from sitting posture to mindset, optimal session frequency to expected benefits, plus a great background to his own journey.

    If you are new to meditation, hopefully this breaks down some barriers and gives you the steps needed to begin a routine of mindfulness training. If you are already a meditator, allow yourself to deepen your practise through Cory's fantastically experienced insight. He's also got a glorious voice.

  • Can More Technology Reduce Smartphone Addiction? - Kai Wei - #010

    Kai Wei is the CEO of www.TheLightPhone.com

    I continue our journey into the world of smartphone addiction by finding out about a new piece of technology whose goal is to be used as little as possible. It may seem like Kai is running against the grain by offering a product with the aim to be absent from our lives rather than a part of them, but it kind of makes sense.

    Expect to learn if the problem of too much technology can be fixed with more technology, why you shouldn't ever have your phone on the table at dinner and how being bored can be the most creative time of your week.

  • How Your Smartphone Is Short Circuiting Your Brain - A Hacker In Your Pocket - #009

    Jonny and Yusef from PropaneFitness.com join me as we discuss the topic of phone addiction. The problem of excessive tech use is almost universally acknowledged by pretty much anyone with a smartphone, but very few of us are aware of the teams of software engineers, warehouses of supercomputers and decades of research goes into manipulating you to click that link, watch that video or download that app.

    An argument is often made that technology is neutral and that it is our decision of how we use it, but our phone's intrusion into our lives is so calculated and manipulative that the deck is stacked firmly against us making a choice we're fully in control of. I genuinely believe that Humane Technology and Ethical Persuasion will be a huge topic over the coming years, hopefully we can kickstart your interest into the subject here...

    On this episode, learn the tactics used by social media websites to manipulate you to stay on site, discover our favourite strategies for taking back control of your phone use and find out why you definitely shouldn't buy a dildo on Facebook Marketplace.
