Lift & Glow Podcast

WWW.LIFTANDGLOW.CO.UK This week’s Q&A goes from body image wobbles, PBs and rebuilding your routine when life has completely changed… to weight-loss hierarchies, supplement “sprinkles” and why your metabolism hasn’t suddenly fallen off a cliff because you turned 30. I’m also talking about why your workouts sometimes need to be sacred, dealing with stress without constantly turning to food, enj...

This week we’re talking sugar cravings, snacking, steps, soreness, getting stronger and why eating less isn’t always the answer. I get into what your constant cravings might actually be telling you, why a “healthy” looking diet can still leave you under-fuelled, how to build meals that actually keep you satisfied, and why mini versions of everything are not the secret to fat loss 😂 We also cover...

JOIN THE COMMUNITY WWW.LIFTANDGLOW.CO.UK We covered LOTS this week.

This week we’re talking about wanting a different outcome… while carrying on doing exactly the same things. I’m sharing something I’ve been working on myself around slowing down, changing my own habits and realising that your brain doesn’t care what you say you want — it responds to what you repeatedly do. Then we get into the fuck-it button when you go over your calories, why tiny “diet” meals us...

This week we’re talking about why your goal weight might be completely irrelevant, why getting back into routine after a holiday can feel like such a massive gear change, and what actually needs to change when you want to stop focusing on fat loss and start building muscle. I also cover body recomposition, how heavy you should be lifting, hip thrust setups, managing cravings, the “f*** it” button,...

September is here, and this week we’re talking about why you don’t need to keep starting again every time life gets messy. I chat about planning ahead, building habits around the person you want to become, simple ways to improve your bedtime routine, dealing with that post-holiday bloated feeling, and answer your training questions on strength imbalances, single-arm rows and leg press variations.

JOIN LIFT & GLOW This week we’re talking about getting yourself back into routine when life has thrown everything off, what to do when your partner isn’t on board with your health goals, and whether things like ready meals, diet drinks and soup can actually fit into a healthy diet.

What This Episode Covers Why comparing your body, life, or progress to anyone else's (Instagram, friends, other PTs) is a losing game — you're not living their reality, so you can't chase their results Before chasing someone else's look: are you actually prepared to make the sacrifices that got them there? (Aggressive dieting, six gym days a week, no social outings, eating from Tupperware) Using s...
