The Lester Kitching Show

With the World Cup on and summer in full swing, your social calendar is probably busier than it's been all year. Beer gardens, barbecues, matches at the pub, and family holidays. And if you're trying to lose weight at the same time, it can feel like you can't win - you either cancel plans and miss out, or you stay feeling uncomfortable in your clothes and self-conscious in your hot wea...

We're wrapping up the series with Part 3 of my 25 biggest life lessons as a father, husband, coach and business owner. In this final part, I get into why what works for someone else probably won't work for you, why happy people won't bring you down but unhappy ones will, and why life is genuinely easier when you're fit and healthy — not just in the obvious ways. There's also a lesson in here about...

In this episode of The Lester Kitching Show, we're talking about how much is too much when it comes to exercise and dieting, and the line where it becomes unhealthy. This topic came from a conversation at one of my free workshops where a lady who was wanting to lose weight herself, mentioned her relative - someone who'd recently got into the gym, started going most days, and had begun trac...

By now you've probably seen Steven Bartlett's comments about a couple of glasses of wine ruining 3 days of his life. It got a lot of attention. A lot of it angry. And I think the reaction is actually more interesting than what he said. In episode 7 of The Lester Kitching Show, I give you my take on the drama, where Steven's got things right, where he's got things wrong, and what yo...

We're back with Part 2 of my 25 biggest life lessons as a father, husband, coach and business owner. In Part 2, I get into why the perfect plan is usually the worst plan, why consistency gets boring and what to do when it does, and why waiting for a dramatic turning point to change your life is a strategy that never actually works. These are the lessons that have shaped how I think, how I coach, a...

In this episode of The Lester Kitching Show, I'm getting into something that I think will land with a lot of people - the difficulty of being consistent with exercise, and how frustrating it can be when you can't stick to even though you're desperate to lose weight and improve your health. I share my personal battle with these emotions from when I became a new dad, and I struggled goin...

In this episode of The Lester Kitching Show, I'm digging into something that came straight from a conversation I had recently with someone who messaged me on Facebook. Her husband had lost 19 pounds without seemingly trying. She'd been dieting for five months and felt like she had nothing to show for it. If you're frustrated because friends, family or people you see on social media see...

I turned 34 yesterday, and I've listened to enough of these episodes from people I respect to know they're worth doing, so here's my 25 biggest life lessons as a father, husband, coach and business owner. This one's different to what most fitness content sounds like. No tips. No tactics. No "five ways to hit your protein target." This is the bigger picture stuff. Beliefs, identity, strategy, and t...

In this episode of The Lester Kitching Show, I'm talking about something I hear constantly from the people I work with - losing weight isn't the problem. Keeping it off is. Specifically, I'm breaking down why the weight comes back after every diet, why it has nothing to do with willpower or discipline, and what actually needs to change if you want results that last longer than a few months. If you...

In this debut episode of The Lester Kitching Show, I dive into one of the hottest and most controversial topics in health and fitness right now - Ozempic, Mounjaro, and the weight loss injection conversation that everyone seems to have an opinion on. Specifically, I'm talking about a story I saw online from someone who shared that "My sister stopped talking to me when she found out I was using Oze...
