In this episode of the Rokman Podcast, Terry sits down with Ollie Olds to strip the nonsense out of mindset, motivation, and self-help.

Instead of feel-good quotes or hype-driven advice, this conversation goes into the psychology behind why people struggle to stay consistent, why burnout creeps in even when things look “fine” on the surface, and why change often stalls despite good intentions.

Ollie explains how self-sabotage actually works, why motivation is unreliable, and how unconscious patterns quietly pull people back to old behaviours. We talk about discipline versus motivation, the role of discomfort in real change, and why most people don’t fail because they’re lazy, they fail because they don’t understand what’s really driving their behaviour.

This episode is for anyone who’s tired of starting strong and falling off, sick of self-help fluff, and looking for a more honest, practical way to build consistency, resilience, and long-term change.

No hype. No empty motivation. Just a real conversation about what actually works.

In this episode of the Rokman Podcast, Terry sits down with Personal Trainer and Movember Challenge athlete, Joey Jones for an honest conversation about fitness, consistency, and why so many people keep falling off track.

Rather than chasing aesthetics, shortcuts, or motivation spikes, Joey talks about why fitness has to become part of who you are if it’s going to last. They break down what most people get wrong with training, why short-term plans fail, and how overcomplicating fitness often creates the very problems people are trying to fix.

The conversation also goes deeper into the role fitness plays in mental health, especially for men — not as a cure-all, but as a reliable guardrail. They discuss discipline versus motivation, why comfort quietly erodes progress, and how physical challenges can give people structure, purpose, and something solid to hold onto when life feels messy.

Will Fraser-Coombe is an ultra-endurance challenge athlete, personal trainer, and owner of fitness brand Adventure Athletes.

He’s flipped tractor tyres for world record attempts, taken on six ultras in six days, and discovered first-hand what happens to your body and mind when you go far beyond normal training.

In this episode, Will opens up about everything the highlight reels don’t show: the mistakes, the pressure, the burnout, the identity shifts, and the moment his brain genuinely snapped days after finishing his biggest challenge. We go deep into what extreme fatigue actually feels like, why endurance advice often collapses in the real world, and how social media has quietly changed the way people train without realising.

I attempted to set a world record for running and drawing a 72-mile GPS cock and balls. Yeah, you read that right. A 72-mile penis.

But this wasn’t just about men’s health or raising money for Movember (though we did smash the £10,000 mark). It was about proving something to myself. After having two kids, I’d let myself go. I was unfit, overweight, and stuck in a rut. I needed a challenge big enough to shock me back to life — and what’s bigger or more ridiculous than the world’s largest GPS dick?

In this episode of the Rokman Podcast, I share:

– How the idea came about (and why Guinness actually denied the challenge)

– What it took to train for 72 miles when I could barely run 3

– The brutal highs and lows of the attempt itself

– Whether I actually managed to set the record

– And what it all taught me about getting fit, finding purpose, and proving you’ve still got it

This isn’t a story about running. It’s a story about hitting rock bottom, setting a ridiculous goal, and clawing your way back through sheer stubbornness.

If you’ve ever felt like you’ve lost your edge, this one’s for you.
