In this episode, I share the honest truth about dieting — and why most people fail.

Not because diets don’t work, but because most people aren’t willing to make the short-term sacrifices required for long-term health and results.

If you want real, lasting change, this is the mindset shift you need to hear.

In this episode, I’m joined by my good friend Adrian for a no-BS conversation around getting in shape and staying there long term.

We cover a wide range of topics including:

✅ How to get in the best shape of your life heading into 2026

✅ How to stay consistent and on track throughout 2025

✅ The biggest mistakes that stop men from ever getting lean

✅ How to manage alcohol without sabotaging your results

✅ Why getting in great shape isn’t meant to be easy — and why that matters

This is an honest, practical discussion around fitness, discipline, and mindset, with real-world takeaways you can apply immediately — especially if you’re a busy guy who’s tired of starting over.

If you’re serious about building a body and lifestyle you don’t need a “reset” from, this episode is for you.

In this episode, I break down exactly how I stay in shape throughout December — without tracking calories, cutting out social events, or falling into the all-or-nothing trap that most people do.

I explain the simple principles I follow every year, the non-negotiables that actually matter during the Christmas period, and why trying to be “perfect” in December is usually the fastest way to fall off completely. If you normally start January feeling heavier, frustrated, and like you’ve undone months of progress, this episode will help you approach December in a far more realistic, sustainable way.

This isn’t bodybuilder advice. It’s a real-life strategy for busy men who want to stay lean, confident, and in control - without sacrificing their social life. Enjoy!

In this episode I break down the fat loss hierarchy — the exact order you need to focus on if you actually want results. I explain why calorie deficit is always the foundation, where lifting weights, sleep and cardio really fit in, and why supplements should be the very last thing you worry about.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re “doing everything” but still not getting lean, this episode will show you exactly where you’ve been wasting effort and how to simplify your approach so fat loss finally becomes predictable and sustainable. Enjoy!

In this episode I discuss the honest truth about having a 6-pack and whether I think it's worth it for a guy to get to this level or not. Having been in shape now for the last 10 years and having helped a fair few guys, this is the conclusion I've come to!

Enjoy!

In this episode I break down why “starting in January” is one of the biggest myths in fitness. I explain how waiting for a date, a new week, or a new month keeps you stuck in the same cycle every single year. Progress doesn’t come from motivation or New Year energy — it comes from taking imperfect action now and building simple, non-negotiable habits that actually stick.

If you’ve told yourself “I’ll start in January” before, this episode will change how you look at time, discipline, and what it really takes to get in the best shape of your life. Enjoy!
