The Sean McGuinness Podcast

Prevention and Longevity Doctor Dr. Philip Mathen reveals the blood test most GPs skip, why "it's genetic" isn't the excuse you think it is, and the one thing he wants every Australian to know about preventing disease.

Dr. Philip Mathen is an Intensive Care specialist with over 30 years of clinical experience across major Sydney hospitals, primarily in post-operative cardiothoracic ICU.

In 2020, he founded Veritas Executive Health, a clinic combining evidence-based medicine, advanced diagnostics, and lifestyle intervention to help executives identify health risks early and optimise long-term performance.

He explains:

• The 4 things routine health checks commonly miss, and what to get tested instead

• Why "high cholesterol" doesn't always mean you need a statin

• How much blood pressure and blood sugar can improve through lifestyle alone, before medication is needed

• Why "it's genetic" is not the free pass most people think it is

• What GLP-1 medications are being misused for, and who they're actually suited for

Most people start strong — motivated, focused, ready to change everything at once.

But two weeks in?

That drive disappears. The workouts stop. The habits fade. And the old routines creep back in. 

In this episode, we pull back the curtain on keeping motivation high and what exactly to do when your motivation is low.  

Whether you're trying to lose weight, gain control of your routine, or finally stick to the habits that matter — this episode will reframe the way you think about motivation forever.

You've been told low-intensity cardio burns more fat… but is that really true?
