The Healthification Podcast

The double-edged sword. This metaphor springs to mind when I think of all the opportunities for inspiration the internet and social media in particular now make available. It’s no longer the case that you merely get to be inspired or perhaps intimidated by that super insanely-intelligent-effortlessly-beautiful-naturally-sporting chick at school. You’re now also a few light taps away from being inspired by that crazy fit-successful-confident chick who’s half your ... READ MORE

If ten workouts are not enough to make you fit and healthy, what if you add another workout? What if you add another? And another? At some point you will have to say the no one can be fit and healthy unless one workout can make you so. Of course this isn’t my brain-child. It’s a concept I first uncounted via author Gretchen Rubin… uniquely ... READ MORE

Fellow VEGO’s today’s show is part 2 of: My Day On A Plate. A follow up to show #346: High Protein Low Carb Vegetarian. Today is all about dinner. It’s also a chance to see how my normal day stacks up so far as those vital micronutrients us vegos can miss out on. To recap we covered BREAKFAST and LUNCH in show 346 ... READ MORE

When it comes to vegetarian eating there are a lot of misconceptions. Among them that vego food is: One: Void of many vital nutrients and a poor source of protein. Two: Boring and bland. Three: Tedious and time consuming. Of course all this can be true. However it can also be true with any approach to eating. One of the super fab things ... READ MORE

My intention is to keep todays show a little lighter. So I’m going to cover a topic I’ve had a fair bit of experience with in the past though perhaps not quite so much recently. Let’s chat… How to get straight back into your ideal fat burning day after too many bicep curls of glass to mouth! Or, put another way:  Damage Control After A Big Night. Whether you’re prone to the odd ... READ MORE

Your bank, your mobile and internet service provider… possibly your accountant? There’s something that each of these may well have in common. And there’s a very real chance that they also have something in common with your approach to exercise and your approach to eating. Potentially your approach is a little along the lines of: Better The Devil You Know. There’s likely a pain of disconnect or level of discomfort or inconvenience that keeps ... READ MORE

Recently I’ve been thinking of a quote by Jim Rohn, “Don’t wish it was easier, wish you were better.” I love this quote. It’s become a bit of a philosophy I apply to most areas of my life although to be brutally honest I’ve slipped a little in one aspect recently. So today’s show is part note to self although my intention is ... READ MORE

It’s one thing to recognize the value and truth in something and it’s another thing to apply that value to YOU. For example I love this quote by Albert Einstein: “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” However from time to time I’ll judge ... READ MORE

It’s not a lack of Discipline or Time or Money stopping you from creating a body and life you love. In today’s show I’m weighing-in on the 4 letter word that’s changes everything. It’s HOPE. Or a lack there of. When you try and fail – repeatedly – each attempt eats away a little more of your belief that it can be any different for you. As ... READ MORE

Have you ever wondered why sometimes a friend, family member or perhaps from time to time even YOURSELF will for no rational reason appear to create drama? This weekend in Aus was pretty HUGE so far as sport. 2 Grand Finals and a World Cup match across 3 codes of footy. And although I’m not the avid sports fan I used to be it caused me to think ...
