In one of last weeks FREE daily emails that I sent out, I listed the top 10 Fitness and Nutrition Myths that continue to invade our personal space from the likes of Susie from accounting, Barry the boofhead and the plethora or shitty fitness influencers who either have no idea what they are talking about or are lying just to sell you a program or crappy product they have been paid a lot of money to promote. In this weeks podcast, I go over these myths and with a dust scientific explanation, a sp...

My want for the coming year and for this podcast is to interview people from ALL walks of life and the health and well-being sector. Whether it's something that's completely foreign to me, such as this weeks podcast and guest, or something I would consider myself to be well versed in, I want to interview more people to engage with more interesting conversations and then bring those conversations to you. This week I spoke to Louise who is a Medical Intuitive Practitioner who has come from a very ...

EVERY trainer and their dog is vying for your attention at the moment with the promise that their program is what will help you achieve your goals in 2022. Before you lock yourself into any of them (apart from my 5 IN 10 Program as it's simply the best and you should come join the family :-P), I want you to listen to this weeks podcast. If you have set yourself up each year to achieve your goals or you have set new years resolutions and BOTH seem to fail you, then this weeks podcast will with ou...

For 6 years straight, I have put a phone in my face and started every day by screaming GOOOOOD MOOOOORNING and then proceed to document almost every aspect of my day. This has included the documentation of me running my exercise physiology business, the birth of Amelia and Anna and their growing personalities, my daily eating habits that have also included my baking and food reviews, my weekly workout routines, my holidays, move to France and now my move to Perth... Throughout this time, there h...

If you were in debt and you went to a financial planner, there advice would be something along the lines of spend less than you earn and let's start paying off that debt. As was discussed in last weeks podcast, there are MANY nuances to what it means to eat for health and how to live a healthy life. However, when it comes to fat loss you need to act in the same way you would when your finances are out of whack and look to start "spending" or consuming less that your body earns. In this weeks pod...

For YEARS I have seen people throw around the word "HEALTH" and justify to themselves and those around them why their diet and food choices are healthier than someone else's and then falsely believe that just because it is healthier that it is also better for fat loss. While food quality and the choices you make around the foods you eat, will absolutely have varying effects on your physical health, fat loss and health are two VERY different things and it is my hope that you walk away from this w...

REVERSE DIETING... What is it, what does it mean and should you be doing it? This term gets thrown around a LOT in the fitness industry and mostly by the fitness elite who are coming off the back end of a physique competition where they are have basically starved themselves for 16 weeks and walk onto stage looking like death and are at their absolute weakest point. These professional dieters do not represent the VAST majority of people they are talking to and for most people, their biggest conce...

Having a family of only women, it is a REAL possibility that one or more of these women will at some stage in their life need to deal with some sort of cancer.

LINK to OURA Ring Discount: CLICK HERE!! Sleep is without a doubt, the SINGLE most important factor in your life that will determine the direction that your overall long term health will take. You can certainly live in short bursts of less sleep, but if you truly want to THRIVE and not just SURVIVE, then making an effort to improve your sleep and make sleep a priority in your life is a MUST. I bought the Oura Ring around 3 months ago as a way to take a closer look at my own sleep patterns and de...

You hear me talk endlessly that if you want to lose fat, then you need to be in a calorie deficit. Well that is and always will be the case, however, having tools that are non-calorie related that help keep you in a calorie deficit or help you attend to a diet that will see you eat in a deficit can also very useful and that is what I will talk about in this week's podcast. I haven't tracked my calories in years and yet I have been able to maintain my weight and lose weight when required over thi...

I've been having a TONNE of fun over on my Instagram Page (@the_no_breakfast_guy) with a series called UNDERRATED or OVERRATED. This series has me asking an open ended question which I then respond to by saying if I think it is overrated or underrated and why. Last week I made the topic specific to fat loss, fasting, fitness and food and thought I would give some more detail here in a podcast as I can only give 15 second responses on Instagram. In this episode I talk everything from Intermittent...

You aren't going to want to listen to this weeks podcast and it would be my recommendation you just skip it and wait for next weeks. However, if you are interested... Amy and I sat down to talk about our favourite memories and times with Rupert and cry our way through the past 10 years. It was fun to look back over the times we have spent together and I just wanted to mark this moment with a podcast for myself and for my family, however I also consider all of you family and so should you want to...

You all know that I am a massive foodie and I LOVE food blogger YouTube and Instagram pages. I stumbled across Zacs page not that long ago when one of his incredible biscoff creations came across my feed and since then I have been hooked with his macro and calorie friendly recipes that anyone can make with common ingredients you can access from any supermarket. When I dove a little deeper into his page though, the story behind why Zac started his page was an interesting story and one that I want...

Starting your day right and setting yourself up for the BEST chance for success is the best way to ensure you stay on track when it comes to ANY goal chasing effort you are looking for. Whether you're trying to get a new business off the ground, lose fat, run a marathon or be the BEST version of a parent, friend or partner that you can be then you NEED to start the day right. But what is right? Not everyone is the same, however I have worked with enough people over the years to know what works f...

There are millions, likely hundreds of millions of people all over the world who wake up each day (or maybe they do it every week or month), jump on the scale to weigh themselves and if the scale goes up they feel incredibly frustrated, angry and give up on their quest to lose weight because of these feelings. More often than not, this feeling of frustration comes from a complete misunderstanding of why the scale weight has gone up and in most cases the increase they see has NOTHING to do with f...

I am and always have been big on pushing people into including strength training into their lives for the MANY benefits that it can create for your life. Not only to help with the fat loss process, but mostly to help maintain and build lean muscle that will help improve the lives of clients now and in the decades to come. While there may be MILLIONS of videos and programs that exist about designing the "best" workout program for both men and women, the fact of the matter is that there are really...

One of the most common questions that I'm asked is... "Adam, how do I increase the amount of protein I am consuming in my diet without going over my calories?" The only question in this line of thinking that comes up more often is, what are some good protein sources. EVERYONE, including myself, has talked endlessly about good protein sources, but I thought I would take this weeks podcast in a slightly different direction and give you the low down on the protein sources that you have been told ar...

A landmark study was released in the last week that was able to show some data from over 6000 participants whose ages spanned an entire generation. The study was looking into the energy expenditure of individuals as they age and whether our metabolism decreases with age and the findings were fascinating and I wanted to talk about this and why it is harder to lose weight as we age. In this weeks podcast I will talk about your ageing metabolism and what you can do to stay in the best shape of your...

This past week I was booked in for my first Jab of pfizer and wasn't sure how I would pull up and so have decided to bring another one of my all time favourite guests and podcasts out of the vault to share with you. I was living in Bordeaux, France at the time and this was the last podcast I ever recorded for the original show I started called "How The Focaccia"? On this episode I had the absolute pleasure to talk to Mike Vacanti a fitness professional, entrepreneur, former trainer to Gary Vayne...

Ever since I put myself through a Wim Hof breath and cold therapy session, I have been quietly fascinated and looking to learn more about the power of the breath. I have read books, listened to podcasts, watch videos and even had Deano from Bondi Rescue on my podcast to talk all about the Power of The Breath. After all of this, I came up with my own breath cycle that combines elements from everything I have heard and observed and it has helped me and many of my clients reduce anxiety and stress,...

I asked a question to my Instagram page... "What do you find MOST challenging about Fat Loss" and the response was huge and so rather than trying to answer all of the responses I received, I said I would record a podcast that would talk to these frustrations and challenges and offer up some solutions to them. My hope with this weeks podcast is that you walk away knowing that the frustrations and challenges you face are not unique to your situation and that you have some tools in your back pocket...

Many fitness, health and fat loss coaches talk a LOT (myself included) about how to go about losing fat, gaining strength and doing what you can to maintain your adherence to the process to see you achieve your goals. However, what most of us coaches neglect to talk about is WHAT you can expect during that process and HOW you will likely feel. There is no hack and no "cheating" your way around fat loss and no amount of tips and tricks can take away from the fact that you are likely to experience...

It has been a wild and furiously fast 6 months since Amy and I picked up our lives in Melbourne and decided to give it a go here in Perth. We have put the girls through some HUGE changes and for the most part, this little family of 4 (plus a dog) has taken it in our strides and are living a happy life. There have also been some big challenges though and these have certainly challenged both Amy and I, as well as the girls, and so we thought it would be a great time to sit down and talk about it A...

This is Sam's 3rd time on the show and no matter how often I have the pleasure of speaking with him, I always enjoy our chats and walk away feeling better for the interaction. Sam shut down his social media presence a little while back due to mental health reasons and said the time away from it all was the best thing he had done for himself in a long time. From time to time I also struggle to find a balance of wanting to share my life and valuable content to help those who need it, to feeling li...

I know I am guilty of this, as I have seen my close friends and family members deal with weight related issues, when I looked to tell them they needed to make changes to better their health and well-being. But I am sure you can ALL relate, that no one likes being TOLD what to do and more often than not this has us rebel and do the exact opposite. So how do you help those you love the most take better care of themselves if you can see their current actions and behaviours are hindering them living...

The social media and glossy magazine landscape can make it incredibly intimidating to get started on your fat loss or fitness journey and you can feel a level of expectation that in MOST cases is completely unrealistic. In today's podcast, I share some tips and thoughts that will help you readjust your thinking on what you can expect over the journey you are about to embark on. This journey is NEVER just a 10 week program and what you are about to do needs to become part of your life, or it will...
