The Paul's Body Engineering Podcast

After years coaching from my private studio, I’ve moved my face to face training to Ezyfit Health Club Kawana.

If you’re on the Sunshine Coast and want to train with me, get in touch to discuss your goals.

Getting in shape is not a 12 or 16 week project with an end date. In Episode 222, I explain why the real transformation begins when you stop treating training and nutrition as something temporary. You do not finish getting in shape. You build the habits, structure and mindset needed to maintain your results long after the initial motivation fades. I cover why sustainable progress requires flexibil...

Great results rarely come from guessing your way through each day. The people who make consistent progress usually know what they are eating tomorrow, when they are training and what they need to achieve in each session.

It is having a system that lets you enjoy your lifest...

You spend 8 hours in bed, but still wake up exhausted. Sound familiar? In this episode, I break down the real reasons you can still feel tired despite getting what seems like enough sleep. It's not always about the number of hours. Sleep quality, recovery, stress, nutrition, training load, hydration, and your daily habits all play a major role in how refreshed you feel each morning. You'll learn:...
