Transform York Podcast

As we approach the final part of 2026, it's the perfect opportunity to reassess our goals, rebuild momentum and make meaningful progress.

In this month's Transform Habit Hub workshop, we explore the psychology behind finishing what you started and why staying consistent can become increasingly difficult as time goes on.

We'll cover:

✅ Why motivation fades and how to overcome it

✅ The psychology behind procrastination and putting things off

✅ Understanding the gap between intentions and actions

✅ How to build confidence through small, consistent achievements

✅ Setting meaningful goals and maintaining personal standards

✅ Practical strategies to improve accountability and finish the year with momentum

This interactive workshop is designed to help you better understand your behaviours, take ownership of your progress and develop the mindset needed to achieve your health and fitness goals.

Build Momentum. Make Progress. Finish Strong.

Feeling like your progress has slowed down, even though you’re still putting the work in?

In this Transform Habit Hub workshop, The Plateau Problem, we look at why progress can slow down, how to tell whether you’ve actually hit a plateau, and what to do next without falling into the trap of eating less, training more or changing everything at once.

We cover:

• How to tell if you’re genuinely stuck
• Why progress naturally slows over time
• Training quality and progression
• Nutrition consistency
• Daily movement and activity
• Sleep, recovery and stress management
• The Plateau Audit
• How to choose the ONE area most likely to move you forward
• The 10% Rule
• Building your own 4 week Plateau Plan 

The biggest takeaway?

A plateau isn’t a reason to give up. It’s a reason to reassess.

Rather than reacting out of frustration, learn to look at the evidence, identify what might be holding you back and make a small, useful adjustment you can actually stick to.

Struggle with the all-or-nothing mindset when it comes to your health and fitness?

You have one bad meal and suddenly the whole weekend is a write-off.

You miss a couple of workouts and decide you’ll “start again Monday.”

You go on holiday, lose your routine and find it difficult to get going again.

In this Habit Hub workshop, we break down why this way of thinking can make long-term progress so difficult and, more importantly, what you can do instead.

We cover:

• Why perfection often leads to inconsistency
• How to recognise your own all-or-nothing patterns
• The importance of your next decision
• Why 50% is always better than 0%
• How to create minimum standards for busy or difficult weeks
• Using Green, Amber and Red weeks to adapt your expectations
• How to stop punishing yourself after a setback
• Practical strategies to get back on track quickly
• How to build a healthier approach you can actually maintain long term

The aim isn’t to become perfect.

It’s to become better at adapting when life doesn’t go to plan, so one bad meal, missed workout or difficult week doesn’t turn into a month of feeling completely off track.

If you regularly find yourself saying “I’ll start again Monday”, this workshop is for you.

Some weeks you feel strong, motivated and ready to train. Other weeks, the exact same workout can feel twice as difficult.

For women, those changes aren't always random.

In this episode, Charlotte explores how the different stages of the menstrual cycle can influence your energy, motivation, recovery and training performance. And, more importantly, what you can actually do about it.

We discuss why consistency doesn't have to mean performing at 100% every week of the month, how to adjust your expectations and training when needed, and why understanding your own cycle can help you stay consistent rather than feeling like you've fallen off track.

If you've ever wondered why your training feels brilliant one week and much harder the next, this episode will help you better understand your body and learn how to work with it rather than against it.

Ever feel like you're doing everything right... but the scales just won't move?

In this Habit Hub workshop, we break down the biggest myths around weight loss and explain why fat loss and weight loss are not the same thing.

You'll learn why your weight can fluctuate from day to day, what really drives sustainable fat loss, and the common mistakes that stop people seeing the results they deserve.

In this workshop, we cover:

✅ Why the scales don't tell the full story
✅ Weight loss vs fat loss explained
✅ How sleep, stress, hormones and water affect body weight
✅ The importance of strength training and building muscle
✅ Hidden calories and the habits that quietly hold people back
✅ The hard truths behind stalled progress
✅ Practical strategies to restart your fat loss journey
✅ Why health, strength and confidence matter more than chasing a number on the scales

Whether your goal is to lose body fat, improve your health or simply understand your body better, this workshop will give you the knowledge and tools to build long-term, sustainable results.

In this episode Tom is joined by fiancé and new full time team member, Charlotte!

Charlotte has been apart of Transform in a small way since we started 5 years ago, but through that time she was fully focused on her full time corporate career.

Her passion for health, fitness, strength training, running & living a balanced life has been well engrained throughout her whole life, and now she's bringing that experience and positive energy to Transform every day of the week.

Listen to Charlotte and Tom's journey together and everything going on at Transform!

Summer is usually the time when routines become harder to maintain. Holidays, social events, kids being off school and busy schedules can quickly push health and fitness down the priority list.

But what if completely stopping exercise over summer is actually the reason so many people feel like they are constantly “starting again” every September?

In this episode we discuss why strength training becomes even more important during busy seasons, how losing routine impacts not only fitness but nutrition and mindset too, and why maintaining just a few hours per week can massively change your long term results.

This is not about perfection or missing out on summer. It is about learning how to enjoy life while still staying connected to the habits that support your health, confidence and future self.

If you’ve ever struggled to stay consistent through summer, this episode is for you.

In this Habit Hub workshop, we dive into the real reasons so many people struggle with energy, consistency, recovery and long term health in modern life.

This isn’t another extreme fitness seminar or generic nutrition talk.

We explore:
• Gut health and why it impacts mood, cravings and energy
• The hidden effects of stress and nervous system overload
• Why modern lifestyles are quietly increasing inflammation and fatigue
• Blood sugar crashes, dopamine overload and constant stimulation
• The importance of movement, recovery and sleep quality
• Practical health habits that actually fit real life

This workshop is designed for everyday people who want to feel healthier, stronger, more energised and more in control of their wellbeing without unrealistic restrictions or “all or nothing” thinking.

Simple.
Practical.
Evidence based.
Sustainable.

Because real health isn’t built through perfection…

It’s built through better daily habits repeated consistently.

Most people think getting healthier is about motivation, discipline and finding the perfect plan. But the truth is, long term change goes much deeper than that.

In this episode, we talk about the real reason so many adults over 40 struggle to stay consistent with their health and fitness goals, and why identity, environment and daily habits shape your future far more than short bursts of motivation ever will.

This is not about extremes, fad diets or becoming obsessed with fitness. It is about building a healthier, stronger and happier version of yourself through realistic lifestyle changes that actually last.

If you have ever felt stuck in the cycle of starting and stopping, this episode will completely change the way you look at your health journey.
