Send us a text For the first episode of 2026 (YAY!!) I thought it would be a good idea to bring out the "scope of practice" episode I did a while ago. You're going to get bombarded with ads for mealplans, personal trainers, gyms etc over the next few weeks and it can be very confusing as to who is actually qualified to say what. There are a tonne of Personal Trainers out there doing specific individual mealplans, and meal plan companies giving exercise advice, and it's important for custome...

FTV The Truth About Cycle Syncing And Smarter Training

Send us a text From the Vault this week a timely episode on cycle syncing. You're going to see a lot of ads for fitness programs over the next month or so, that's what January always brings, and I thought this episode where I go over some of the claims made by people selling you programs might be useful. Is cycle syncing the next big breakthrough in fitness, or just another marketing gimmick? Should you really only do weight training or HIIT for 2 weeks per month and does that really increa...

From the vault; Diastasis questions answered and can you pause rehab exercise safely?

Send us a text In this week's episode from the vault I answer some diastasis recti related questions that come up regularly. I also talk about the having to take a break from rehab exercises. Of course it happens regularly that life gets in the way, is that a probolem or is it just not that big of a deal? Here are the questions I cover; 1. I'm not sure I'm doing the home workouts right. When there is a spot that says "breathing (lying)" or "(standing)", does that just mean I do the upwar...

Q&A Belly support bands during pregnancy and foods that increase breastmilk production?

Send us a text Could belly support bands, kino tape, belly wraps etc. be the hidden key to postpartum recovery? What about wearing one during your pregnancy, will that actually help prevent diastasis recti/pelvic girdle pain etc? In today's episode, I discuss the real deal with taping and belly bands during pregnancy. Despite their popularity, there's a lack of evidence to suggest they prevent diastasis recti; instead, strengthening exercises prove to be the more effective meth...

Pelvic Floor Recovery: Why Online Programs Won't Work

Send us a text On this week's "from the vault" episode; A relatively short podcast. I mainly talk about why a program to heal your pelvic floor can not really be done/purchased online where as a program to heal Diastasis Recti can. There are some excellent pelvic floor specialists on Instagram and a lot of the information they give is very useful however I personally wouldn't recommend you invest in any of their programs without a physical examination first. In the news this week I briefl...

"I'm doing everything right, why am I not losing weight?". The big question.

Send us a text From the Vault; This week I talk about one of the questions that comes up regularly in the day-to-day life of any personal trainer and dietitian. "I am doing everything right, why am I not losing weight?".

The following question should always be "Let's try to find out what the missing lin...

Get the basics right. About exercise, diet...and podcasting

Send us a text This week I talk about the importance of getting the basics right. After recieving an email from someone who said that one of the advanced exercises was "too easy" I thought I'd better address the importance of focusing on the right bits. Quite often we can overcomplicate things and look for solutions that are rather elaborate rather than just making sure the basics are covered. Much like with podcasting and diet, getting the basics right in exercise is essential. The basic...
