Podcast appearances and mentions of carl reader

Let me ask you—how's your upper body strength these days? Are you doing enough to support your posture, protect your spine, and keep those wrists stable and strong? In this episode of the Stronger Bones Lifestyle podcast, I welcome back the amazing Carl Reader, a functional movement and exercise specialist who's helped so many women over 60 (especially those dealing with osteoporosis and arthritis) feel stronger and more confident in their bodies.You may remember Carl from episode 65 where we focused on lower body strength, and now he's back to talk upper body! From posture and pec strength to wrist mobility and core connection, Carl breaks down exactly what women need to be doing—and avoiding—to protect their bones and age with strength and grace. We even get into the importance of energizing your spine, working with the fascia, and how to move smarter, not harder. It's such a great conversation, and I know you're going to take away some powerful tools for your own movement practice!Key TakeawaysThe Role of Posture and Pecs – Strengthening your chest and posture muscles is essential to maintaining alignment and minimizing spinal compression fractures.Understanding the Fear Factor – Exploring how fear of pain or re-injury can lead to weakness and immobility, and how to safely rebuild trust in your body.Why Core Connection Matters – Activating your core isn't about crunches—it's about charging the body's battery to support safe, strong upper body movement.The Importance of Wrist Mobility – Without proper wrist extension and strength, even minor falls can lead to fractures after 60.Smart Strength Training – You don't need heavy weights to build strength—functionally integrating breath, movement, and alignment creates real change.How Rotation Heals – Mobilizing the mid-back and incorporating spinal extension and rotation are game-changers for posture, pain relief, and better balance.Energy Flow and Fascia – Your fascia carries the energy and connection that lets muscles communicate, so movement should follow natural, functional lines.Where to Find Our GuestLearn more about Carl here: https://www.carlreadercoaching.comLinks & ResourcesStronger Bones Lifestyle CommunityJoin a supportive space to strengthen your bones naturally with live sessions and masterclasses.

My guest, Carl Reader, addresses the root causes of pain. He is a Functional Movement Coach, Personal Trainer and have a background in Exercise Physiology and Pilates. What this means for you is the possibility of exercising safely without risk of pain and injury or getting to the root cause of your pain so you get relief. I had a virtual session with Carl during which he corrected my posture getting up from a chair to protect my sometimes achey knees, showed me a safer stretch for my hips, and approved my aerial yoga inversions. That was good news because I love to hang upside down! He did suggest that one of my favorite core body exercises, the plank, might not be the best way to get the results I'm looking for. This was actually good news as my wrists are not so happy in plank pose. But let's talk pain. Pain is a thief isn't it? One of the questions that led Carl to do this work is "Why does the pain keep coming back?" after treatments even with Chiropractic or other so called functional movement therapies. Because something is not being addressed he said. Sometimes it's a habitual wrong movement we return to after treatment, and sometimes, Carl says, it's more than just balancing the muscles there are thoughts and emotions and beliefs intimately connected with out movements. Yes we did get into the mind/body connection. He has anecdotal evidence that I find fascinating. Listen up women. He has noticed over the years that women's pain is often on their left sides. And women are more relational. "So any sort of relational stress--that can be relationships to friends, family, and even to yourself, how you view yourself, negative body images, thoughts can show up as pain. It's just is so connected. So men are on the right side. That's the ego side of the power, it's the striving and trying too hard. Worry, anxiety and fear are also right side pains." He points this out to say that sometimes just hearing that your pain could be related to or caused by some kind of relationship--even to yourself--can start the healing process. Acknowledging this can move the needle. More on that Carl said another reason for pain could be that we're carrying, literally carrying this emotional weight or pressure in the body, in the muscles. Bottom line? Don't suffer with pain. Get help. We talked about something called "The sit to rise test" When I described it to Carl he said he'd be surprised anyone over 5o could do it, In his practice he has people start on a short stool, maybe a foot off the ground. This test is said to predict how long a life you'll have. I tried it again before posting this and I've lost a point in the past few years. But as with all other forms of strength building, it's never too late to improve.

How we work, where we work and when we work is changing fast.  The old industrial paradigm of the Monday to Friday, 9 to 5, office based role, appears increasingly outdated and anachronistic.  The changes have in part been driven by Covid, but there are other, more subtle and more powerful phenomena in play.  Advances in technology, shifting cultural norms and the values held by those leaving education and joining the workforce are having the biggest impact on the future of work and leaving many of us to consider whether being our own boss is a genuine option.Extolling the virtues of being your own boss is this week's Oven-Ready HR guest.  Carl Reader is a prolific investor and serial entrepreneur who left school at the age of 15 to become an apprentice hairdresser.

Review of Boss It: Control Your Time, Your Income and Your Life by Karl Reader, available here. Do you dream of ditching the day job, doing your own thing and being your own boss? Are you ready to Boss It? In this invigorating and highly practical book, serial entrepreneur Carl Reader provides exactly the fire and guidance you need to get started. Designed to cut through the business jargon, this handy guide will take you through everything you need to establish and run your own business – from the mindset it takes to turn a dream into a plan, to the need-to-know practical stuff for running and growing a business. Featuring case studies, templates and exercises to help you put what you read into action, and turn that dream into a reality, this motivational book will enable you to be your own boss, to take control of your income, your time and your life... and Boss It. Boss It: Control Your Time, Your Income and Your Life, reviewed In a world rapidly hurtling towards a gig economy, remote working and digital nomad lifestyles this book is very much positioning itself in the right space. It is practical, logical and sequential in the concepts it explores and walks you through. There is a lot of good, common sense delivered here. For our taste we would have liked a little more on how to differentiate yourself and create a strong and unique presence online, but in every other way this book is a solid, useful and well considered guide. As more and more people are being nudged towards self employment it makes sense to do that you can to prepare for this possibility, and there are a lot of upsides to it as well. Not having to answer to a boss, or make a pointless commute to somewhere else, deal with trivial office politics, drink bad coffee, what’s not to like. Carl Reader tweeted: Not quite true...

Carl Reader is a South African Functional Movement Coach who works with golfers of all skill levels with an emphasis on better health and maximized performance. Carl joins our podcast to help you to understand functional movements and exercises and their effect on injury prevention and golf improvement. He specifically elaborates on three functional movements - the Squat, the Upright Plank and the Lunge - describes how they are performed and how incorporating them in workouts will promote well-being, reduced injury and better golf. He also addresses Thoracic Spine Mobility and some key moves in the swing related to power production. 

Carl, by his own admission is someone who was always taught that business was”n't for “people like him'. To him business seemed like it was exclusively for the rich and wealthy. Studying Business Studies at GCSE, it seemed like it was only focused on the biggest of businesses and when he entered the workplace, it seemed so complicated. Probably, because most people in business have a vested interest in making things seem complicated!   So his mission as being fairly simple, he takes what may seem like complicated ideas and translate them so that an eight year old can understand them. Sharing his thoughts through books,  articles, on stage, and through broadcast media - in plain English. He makes sure you know that there are five key elements of scaling a business, four things that are essential for any business owner to make sure that they keep doing, to avoid failure and the tricks of the trade from his own many years of experiences, and from advising others, Carl is sharing this and more in his brand new book, “Boss It”, control your time, your income and your life due out on October 3rd 2020.   Links mentioned in the show:  Order Carl's Book: Boss It HERE Carl's Website HERE: Carl Reader More articles HERE: YBKBS Magazine Website Marc's website: HERE

Dermot Hamblin Dermot Hamblin is a formidable track record of leading and selling in the accounting world. His experience covers several business sectors; SaaS software, professional services and martech. A pioneer in creating and leading teams for companies in growth mode, he has been the first man on the ground for three companies setting up offices in the UK; one Australian, one Irish and one Bulgarian. He has worked in owner-occupied, VC backed and multinational corporate environments, and the one point connects all of the businesses above is ambitious growth plans. Dermot is currently helping ProfitPro grow and launch their incredibly successful template for helping Irish accountants into the UK. Shownotes: Many sole practitioner accountants are struggling in today’s competitive and changing accounting marketplace An assessment of where the accounting software and technology space is at this time The pace setter firms are racing ahead, making quick decisions and executing quickly on their implementation of strategy Fast moving technology is not having the disruptive effect many expected in accounting as firms are slow to adopt Why many tech projects in accounting firms fail due to failings from firm leaders Software vendors are an easy target for slow adoption of tech but actually they provide huge support and education to accounting firms There is a gap between accounting firms in Australia and New Zealand which is down to several factors Shout outs to Carl Reader, Will Farnell and Paul Bulpitt who are leading the most progressive and innovative UK accounting firms The first decision accounting firms should make when using tech is whether there is an efficient manual way to get the job done How the younger accountants are driving cloud projects forward in accounting firms An example of how to win pitches against bigger, more established accounting firms Can accountants sell? No, because many still perceive selling as being bad Unless accounting professionals can sell, they won’t have any success as a business person Accountants are coming under attack from business coaches who say ‘don’t work with accountants because they have limited commercial experience’ Accountants are really only a trusted advisor when their clients are proactively calling them up and asking for advice Accountants don’t need to know everything about everything to delivery services beyond compliance Accountants are better placed to deliver strategic planning for clients than they are app advisory Shout out to John Thompson for helping accountants deliver advisory services One of the essentials for delivering growth in an accounting firm is a good CRM system Shout out to Des O’Neill of OmniPro who understands the problems and pains of accountants in Ireland and beyond The benefits of Profit Pro for accounting firms who want growth The accounting partnership model will decrease in popularity and firms will become much more business like in the future The rise of the data scientist in the accounting world in an era of AI and machine learning Accountancy firms will need to get better at selling themselves and training their people to sell.

Our guest for today's episode is Carl Reader who is a Functional Movement Coach and a Biokineticist (Exercise Therapist). He's been helping athletes and clients move and exercise better or what is known as functionally. Join us as we discuss warm up, squats and functional movement.

Carl Reader started his working life as a hairdresser on a Youth Training Scheme, which didn't last long. From there he shifted, by accident into accounting, starting at the bottom and rising to take over the business. His unorthodox background, entrepreneurial spirit, thirst for learning and passion for shaking things up, has helped him achieve success in the most traditional of professions in some not so traditional ways.   As an author of two popular business books for small businesses, and a popular commentator on business in the press, he has developed a reputation for no nonsense advice, and a stand out personal brand. In this show I asked him to share his experience and tips to help speakers and entrepreneurs grow their business today.   Enjoy!   What you'll learn Why you should get under the skin of your target customer and become intimate with their industry. The four-step model for business success. When and why you should share your goals and dreams. Why self-awareness is a critical business tool. Why you should develop multiple touch points with your customer. How online and offline networking should work together. Why we should be aware of the ‘stay at home economy'. Why you should develop a personal brand for more sales. What you should never do as a first-time speaker. How speakers can protect their business through scaling up. How your topic and your chosen audience can impact your bookings. Why you should build a business with your exit in mind. How speaking mishaps can turn into great PR opportunities. The best business advice Carl ever got.     All things Carl:   Website – www.carlreader.com Twitter / Linked In / Facebook: @CarlReader   The Start Up Coach – Carl Reader The Franchising Handbook – Carl Reader   Resources*   Click to Join me on the Miracle Morning 30 Day Challenge at The Speaking Club Business Hub   Books mentioned in the Show with Amazon Link: Rich Dad Poor Dad – Robert Kiyosaki How to Win Friends and Influence People – Dale Carnegie The Four-Hour Work Week – Tim Ferris The E-Myth Revisited – Michael Gerber   Ifyou are going to the Edinburgh Fringe in 2018 you can see Sarah in action as the infamous Lillie Langtry in a feisty comedy drama.

Carl Reader started lifting weights a few years ago as a way to stay healthy. He really enjoyed it because he was in control and there are always new goals to achieve when training. The weightlifting routine and principles of mindfulness have helped Carl learn to respond rather than react to business situations. In this episode, Carl and I talk about how business isn’t B-to-B or even B-to-C, it’s all H-to-H (Human-to-Human), because people are still buying from other people. Because of this, Carl says, “My intention is to really get to know others because that’s where the magic happens.” He tries to treat all relationships the same by having the same persona, both in and out of work.

This week accountant and business coach Carl Reader joins the podcast to chew over the FRC's crackdown on ‘seriously poor’ audit practices from the Big Four, how small practitioners are reacting to the government’s Making Tax Digital scheme and what the ubiquitous term ‘advisory services’ means for accounting practices.
