Rebuild Health and Fitness Podcast

Tamiya McKercher is an accredited sports nutritionist, trainer and online coach who works with a multitude of different clients, including bodybuilders and mothers. 

This week on the Rebuild podcast, we’re speaking to Tamiya about her journey into fitness, the highs and lows of bodybuilding and nutrition and her approach to evidence-based health. Tamiya talks about what you need to consider if you're thinking about competing in the bodybuilding world, and how that may affect your mindset - for the better or worse at times and how it plays into the biopsychosocial model of health. 

 Tamiya is also a mother; her partner competes on stage and she works with clients on exploring beyond the transformations – hence her business’s title: Beyond Transformations. 

Tune in this week to hear about some nutrition and fat-loss myths, how she approaches a balanced life and the fact and fiction surrounding bodybuilding.

This week on the podcast, we’re talking about the benefits of personal training versus group training. 

It’s not as simple as it may seem - which should you opt for? There are clear benefits for both, cost versus effectiveness, progress rates, injury prevention and pacing. 

At Rebuild, we offer personal training, group training and group classes - and there are benefits and drawbacks to all. What’s best? Well it depends what you need - what your goals are and how much experience you have in group settings.

Roby also owns a local gym and cafe in Capalaba, a retail store in Wynnum, organises regular charity events and is looking ahead to his next ventures.

This week’s podcast is about finding balance - and what that means to you. 

Too often the health industry is perceived as all or nothing - but it’s not that black and white; it’s a spectrum. It’s time to throw away the stereotypes and assumptions of what you ‘should’ be doing. 

You don’t have to sacrifice your social life and mental wellbeing, crash diet or forgo the things you love to get results. It’s about ‘restraint - not restriction’.

It’s knowing your priorities/values and working on them - and maintaining a healthy balance.

This week Sean and I talk through some of the stupid shit we use to say, stupid stuff we use to believe it and things we have changed our minds on. 

We must know that everything is learned, and just how we learn it we can unlearn it or at least change of view of it. That is growth. 

“If anyone can refute me—show me I’m making a mistake or looking at things from the wrong perspective—I’ll gladly change. It’s the truth I’m after, and the truth never harmed anyone.” – Marcus Aurelius

Some of the things we have said, blow our minds and this makes for a very interested and fun episode. 

We also discuss how to know if you are making progress and the methods you should and shouldn't use when attaching objective and subjective measurements to them. 

To know if we are improving, we must understand where we are.

This week we dive deep into the state of the dieting industry, challenge culture and the values/worth we attach to ourselves. 
 
We are not against dieting, we have a business for the sole purpose of it, but we do beleive the fact that people shouldn’t be living trying to diet year after year. 
 
But what causes us to think this way? What causes us to live in a state of yo-yo dieting, challenge culture or looking for the next best thing to control our weight? 

Why do people want to diet in the first place? Is this something they want or it is something they believe they should? 
 
 If so why? 
 
 Enjoy the episode, this is a cracker and we hope by the end of it you’re at least thinking differently about ‘dieting.
