RNT Fitness Radio

Back in June 2023 I appeared on Daniel Hill's Blueprint Podcast, where we ran an episode in a 6 rounds format. The format is simple. Each of us brings 3 surprise topics, the timer is set to 10 minutes a topic, and you can riff on anything inside of it. Once the bell rings, it's onto the next.    In this episode, we talk psychedelics, discipline, sex, disagreements, fatherhood and AI. There's a lot...

Happy New Year! I hope you've all had a restful Christmas break and are ready to hit the ground running in 2024. On this episode, I'm joined by a few of the coaching team to dissect exactly how to transform your body in 2024, regardless of your phase, background, genetics, or circumstance. We cover it all.    Having transformed of 3300+ men and women in 26+ countries, we know what works for busy h...

I'm recording this a few days after my daughter turned eight months old.    I can't quite believe it's gone so fast. It's strange; at the beginning it felt like time went super slow, but as each month has gone by, it's sped up rapidly. I think part of it is because milestones are coming thick and fast, and her interaction with us continues to grow.    This is the seventh time I'm recording one of...

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I'm joined by Dipal Shah, who shares her journey of trying literally everything under the sun, to finally accomplishing her dream physique in her late 40s. Dipal battled for years and years with fad diets, creams, sculpting machines, all sorts. It wasn't until she saw her brother Hemal lose 80lbs with RNT, and her husband achieve an impressive transformation w...

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I'm joined by Alec Blenis, a competitive athlete, strength & conditioning coach, and self-confessed science nerd.

His roster has included collegiate & national level endurance athletes, powerlifters, fire/police/military personnel, and OCR...

Welcome to part 2 of the episode series, 9 things the public doesn't 'get' about being vegan (but should) with Dr Minil Patel.   It took me 3 years of umming and ahhing before I finally pulled the plug on meat/fish/dairy. Despite having helped 100s of vegans, I always thought I was a "unique case" where it wouldn't work. I worried about the lifestyle, the convenience, the travel, the fitness gains...

It took me 3 years of umming and ahhing before I finally pulled the plug on meat/fish/dairy. Despite having helped 100s of vegans, I always thought I was a "unique case" where it wouldn't work. I worried about the lifestyle, the convenience, the travel, the fitness gains. It was all in my head. The last 22 months have proven I can feel, look and perform at my best with only plants. Only just a few...

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I'm joined by Hemal Shah, who shares his journey so far with us at RNT. After spending years focusing on his career at the expense of his health, Hemal found himself at over 200lbs. Once Covid forced a change in lifestyle, coupled with a few candid comments from his children, Hemal decided enough was enough. When he saw a relative transform with the RNT journey...

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I'm joined by RNTer Meera Vekaria, who shares her journey of losing 22kg to feel and perform at her best in every aspect of life. During Covid-19, Meera had gained weight, and no longer liked what she saw in the mirror.

Inside we discuss what success looks like, key principles to understand, and some very tactical approaches to every type of social event possible.

I was blown away while recording this episode of RNT Fitness Radio. Nisha's story is exactly why we do what we do at RNT. At only 36 years young, she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. As a mum with two young children, Nisha and her husband were shaken to the core. Fortunately, after gruelling chemotherapy, her body fought it off. At this point, Nisha wanted to get strong, focus on her health, and...

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I'm joined by RNTer Val, to share his journey with us so far in 2023. After spinning his wheels for many years, trying multiple programmes but never seeing the long-term results he wanted, Val joined us in January 2023. He had a vision of getting shredded, and having the energy and focus to be at his best at home as a dad and husband, and at work as an entrepr...

A few weeks ago a friend of mine, Shaz Memon, invited me to an exclusive screening of a short film he'd produced, documenting the work of his charity in India. I was blown away by what he'd created, and more importantly, the impact of his charity. So to help spread the word, I invited Shaz onto the podcast to discuss two things. First, how he optimises his lifestyle to be a high performer at work,...

Premila's only regret with joining RNT was that she waited 3 years. When she joined RNT, she'd just turned 50.  All her life, she'd been really active: frequently running 10 miles and cycling large distances. So she never thought she would need to join a fitness programme. She was of the firm opinion that as long as she exercised and ate well, she could manage on her own. And then, two separate in...

After two pregnancies, health and fitness was always on Daksha's mind. She wanted to feel, look and perform at her best, but nothing really clicked for her. Until her husband Devin came home one day and suggested they jump on RNT together. Having never weight trained before, Daksha went all in on the process to push herself beyond what she thought was possible. She built consistency, found her rou...

When Nikhil joined RNT he thought he needed to lose 10-15kgs at the most. He ended up dropping a massive 30kg to shed the excess weight and live his best life. Like many others, he made the mistake of overestimating his muscle mass and underestimating how much fat he carried! The truth was, Lockdown had done a real number on Nikhil's health. Being sedentary with too much food and not enough exerci...

Having better, frequent and more fun sex is arguably the biggest secret benefit of getting into the best shape of your life. Sex is an integral part of our health, yet over 350 episodes in, we've yet to have a conversation about it. So I wanted to bring on a sex expert to tell us all about it. Today I'm joined by Dr Bat Sheva Marcus, Ph. D, who's a certified sex therapist, and the author of  Satis...

It's never too late to make a change. And Sandeep's incredible journey is proof that even at 49 years young, you can build an incredible physique and boost your health and vitality!"   All it took for Sandeep to take action was a few pictures of him taken at a friend's wedding. He couldn't ignore the stark difference between how he saw himself mentally and what the mirror reflected back at him.  ...

In this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I'm joined by Coach Ivan to bust a few myths on various things floating around the fitness industry right now. After being asked many times by our members, we thought we'd hit record on the value of stool tests and glucose monitors, whether artificial sweeteners are safe, and the role of scale weight in a body transformation. Book A Call To Start Your Journey!...

Terry felt ashamed when he found himself contemplating liposuction just so he could look and feel more confident at work.   He was ashamed of his body and ashamed that he was even considering surgery! Something deep inside him told him that it wasn't the right thing to do. And he knew that he would not be able to face his kids if he went down that route.   What he needed was a holistic approach to...

In this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I'm joined by Coach Ivan to discuss all things emotional eating. I believe the single biggest reason for inconsistency on a diet is our inability to manage our stress and emotions, and then resort to food or drink as a result.  Emotional eating can show up in many ways, from high pressure work situations, to relationship arguments, to simply boredom and bad hab...

Recently I was in a conversation with an RNT member who asked, "have you ever thought about recording an episode with the parents of the RNT team to see the different ways they balance parenting and fitness?" I thought this was a brilliant idea, and something I'd love to hear about too.    So I brought in different members of the team: Shwetha, Charlie and Ed into the studios, to find out the rout...

Sometimes you need an earth shattering moment to propel you to make a change. Dhiren had many all at once, including the birth of his son, and a serious word from his doctor. At 120kg just shy of 50 years old whilst being borderline pre-diabetic, he was told if he didn't lose weight he'd have a heart attack before 60. What's worse is the doctor said it'd probably be fatal.    Dhiren had one thing...
