You've had enough.

You've been trying on and off for years trying to lose that 30kg (it used to be 10kg but you've noticed that with every quick fix the weight seems to have come back on more than when you started).

But this time it's going to be different - you KNOW it.

So the time has come to launch into a training program and a diet that you KNOW you won't be able to keep up long-term, but as long as it gets the 30kg off you'll be fine, right?

Except you've been at it now for nearly a month and nothing is really changing.

Something must be wrong, so you decide to jump on Google and see what else is out there. You come across this hot new training program that comes with a free meal plan attached.

It sounds great! Except it also completely contradicts the last program you thought was fantastic but ultimately didn't work. Come to think of it, that other weight loss program you were looking into contradicts this one you're about to start.

..but then you've also got that friend who seems to be losing lots of weight on that detox program. What if you looked into that?

Ultimately, the noise is defeaning; you're lost and you're confused. You know you've got a lot to work on but when it all comes down to it...you just don't know where to start. All you know is that you're sick of going through this cycle over and over again.

In this episode of the show we break down the best place to start on your weight loss journey. Be it right at the beginning or if you're a veteran of the failed quick-fix cycles and are just over it.

The knowledge we share on our podcasts comes from our own personal experience as well as our professional experience helping people around the world just like you change their lives inside and out.

So often it starts small. It could be a comment from a friend, or you're comparing your results to someone else's. Maybe you aren't seeing the results you're hoping for in a particular time frame.

It eats away at you until it builds to the point where you question yourself. You also question what you're doing, how you're doing it...sometimes even why you're doing it.  

The question you ask yourself the most is "Can I really do this?"  

It can stop a transformation dead in its tracks.  

In this episode of the show, we have an open and personal discussion about self doubt. How it has affected us through our lives, how we've seen it affect so many people out there on their weight loss journeys.  

We also give you tips and advice on how to deal with your self doubt and how we deal with ours!

If we were to ask you to think about what's involved in losing weight, what would you think about? "What should I eat?" "Should I cut carbs?" "Am I having too much protein?" "Should I have one sugar in my coffee or two?" "How much cardio should I do?"

You know what no one really thinks about? Sleep.

That's right, sleep.

In this episode of the show we get underneath the covers to discuss what is a TRUE x-factor that can make or break your weight loss results...sleep! Why don't you get comfy and join us?

We get asked a LOT of questions in relation to weight loss as personal trainers, online coaches and weight loss experts.

A lot of them are great questions but the answers aren’t in-depth enough to warrant their own episodes, so it’s time for another random weight loss Q&A!

In this episode of the show we randomly ask each other questions that we’ve been sent through Facebook and email from our listeners...

"What is your idea of a healthy lifestyle?"

"If overtraining leads to plateau and increasing bodyfat, why do Crossfit athletes seem to be so fit but ripped at the same time?"

"What's the best way to speed up weight loss?"

"Why is it harder to lose weight as you get older?"

And more!

When you ask the average person on their weight-loss journey "Where's the most important place to go to get results?", the answer commonly will be...the gym! An effective training program will see you spending around 3% of your time each week in the gym.

  Sooooo....what about the other 97%?  

In this episode of the show we give nothing but love to the location where results are really made...the kitchen! 

We share our personal feelings on cooking, struggles we've overcome along the way and even compare notes on our favourite cooking methods and tools!  

Your kitchen truly is your environment for success. So we decided it was time we give you a sneak peek into ours!

You were going to the gym 6 days a week, sometimes twice a day!

You were meal prepping 2-3 times per week.

But that was a month ago, and in that time you've found yourself slipping.

You're finding excuses to miss your workouts.

Excuses as to why you're too busy to cook your own food now and it's just easier to stop in at the drive-through once...twice...three or four times each week.

That's right - you've slipped back to your bad old habits.

In this second part of our discussion about habits we give you practical tips and advice on how to reconstruct your habits in positive and life-changing ways.

How do they work? How do they stop me? What can I do to make them work in my favour?

A critical part of a successful transformation involves improving your relationship with food.

Some of us use food as a way to cope with our emotions and find that their emotional eating habits really hold them back. 

Some will restrict what they eat so much that when the rebound comes, they fall off the wagon so hard they find it really hard to get back on.

In this episode of the show we break down and discuss the 7 different types of food personalities out there.

Are you The Pleaser? The Restrained? Maybe you're The Anxious? Join us to discover your food personality, how it works against you and what you can do to manage it and take those necessary steps forward!
