Its been a long time coming but recent events of people unfortunately passing from suicide have higlighted the need for something like this to be heard I believe Mental Health is hitting people hard no matter who you are or your circumstances you have or will face something or someone who deals with it I think its important to hear a different perspective or both sides of the coin of suicide/mental health and to understand it doesnt avoid athletes, actors, singers & high profile people Have a listen & learn from this please

First podcast of 2022 witrh tyson and we catch up to give everyone an understanding of our own training, nutrition and work situations Then we divve into some solid questions asked on instagram from some our clients + followers covering deficits, training, rep schemes, boxing, oprotein and so much more

This time of the year can do two things for people: 1 - Scare the shit out of some & 2 - Excite the rest......Which one are you going to be this year This episode we discuss how to navigate through the hardest time of the year full of many social events, drinking & eating out whilst enjoying it all but also how to plan out your New Years approach to succeed as best as possible next year with any goal in life

Tyson and I thought that people needed a step by step breakdown of how to come out of lockdown no matter where you are in the world To many people go in blindly and try to go balls to the wall in the gym or shit themselves in social situations and get to drunk to soon haha so we thought wed help prep you better How to structure your training, social gatherings, nutrition and so much more

In this second part to our podcast we talk about our motivation and drive during lockdown and how we are managing it with clients  as well as ourselves We touch on how to stay mentally strong during these uncertain times and also to focus on yourself by not getting tied in to others opinions of what's going on in the world

In this episode I sat down with my good friend Tyson the Trainerr to talk all things about the fitness industry, PT life, online coaching + all the bullshit you hear & see in the fitness industry Tyson is one of the best online coaches out there who has been on quite the health journey himself so far battling through his teens with low testosterone levels compared to that of a 14 year old girl & an eating disorder to go with it. This episode outlines what he went through Where he is now is truly a testament to his character & drive!

On this episode I sat down with New Zealand All Blacks Midfielder Anton Lienert Brown to talk about all things mental health & as he likes to say going "Bone Deep" Here you will see that he is so much more than just an athlete! He shows his vulnerabilities but also his strength & in my opinion he is a guiding light for so many others He addresses his own struggles, how he works on himself, how reaching out to support groups & professionals saved him but also how the mind is the most important thing you can work on

In this episode I dive a whole lot deeper into the topic of mental health, my experiences with it, how it affected me, how I navigated through it and how I think we can be better I step out of my comfort zone, take the mask off, show my vulnerabilities and how the lowest points in my life are now my motivation to be better I hope to set an example here that its not weak to speak and that me explaining my story will help others be more comfortable with their own issues to be able to communicate CONTACT LINES Lifeline Australia - 13 11 14 Beyond Blue - 1300 22 4636
