Do you need to balance your hormones? How about eating an anti-inflammatory diet for PCOS? Exercise to sync your cycles? As women and femmes, we are wonderfully unique, often overlooked and medically marginalised, but is the advice we need THAT different from the body of evidence that is already out there?

Are you being empowered as a woman or are you being exploited by people who think that 'niching' down their marketing to women is going to make them lots of money? Women's insecurities shouldn't be a business plan... Tune into this episode with Chloe Stevens to find out...

In this first instalment of the unhinged health hotline we answered listener questions about body image going into summer. We went through and gave some practical tips and tricks while basing ourselves on the reality that this stuff is not going to change overnight. Remember we can't separate your physical health from your mental health- it's all connected so if that 8-week shred is fcking with your head then maybe its not worth it?

We all do it, don't finish the final set at the gym, tell ourselves we'll start again on Monday ,  ghost our coaches, let our goals fade into the distance when we might have had a really good chance of getting there.

Self-sabotaging or self-handicapping is really quite common. WE ALL DO IT. So why do we do it? Is this is the secret sauce to overcoming obstacles and finally reaching our goals?

This week I have a very, very special guest Ella Whitcomb-Khan chatting all things self-handicapping and how we can get out of our own way!

If you're trolling the internet for free but useful information in order to improve your diet or get more consistent in the gym, there are many different factors that go into advice. As a coach that tries their very best to give quality recommendations or suggestions for free, when I don't know that much about you it is really difficult and I always start everything with 'it depends' because it really does! I don't know how much you work, your preferences, your likes, and dislikes, if you have kids, how many kids, how old your kids are, etc. 

In this episode I give the most basic litmus test I can come up with to figure out what it is that you need to work on if the advice given is 'it depends' 

Tune in and let me know how it goes :)

Do you ever wish that your personal trainer understood a bit more about living in a larger body? Or maybe what its like to have chronic illnesses? Or maybe even was just a legend who looked at things from a macro perspective rather than just getting shredded for summer? Well look no further, Bon is an incredible human who we are Not Nutrition Gurus are lucky enough to call our friend. She is on the light side of the industry, the resistance or jedi if you will. 

Listen in to find out more about body neutrality and what it could do for you to change your life.

Is it stoicism or is she dissociating? Right after the Easter holiday, I think we can all agree that copying and pasting a math solution onto an emotional issue just won't work. It is a round peg and a square hole... 

Now stoicism is often toted around as something 'motivating' to make us want to work out and eat broccoli, but does it work? Every 18-year-old personal trainer with a six-pack and a chip on their shoulder owns at least one copy of "Daily Stoic" but does it really mean that your yo-yo dieting is solved? That your stress management is good? That you'll have a good strategy for your nutrition goals? 

Tune in to find out, this one is a bit of a rant.

Your blood sugar will increase when you eat certain foods, carbohydrates, and protein, but how worried do we need to be about that? We all know that diabetes can wreak havoc on our health where glucose runs rampant in our bodies. But is it important to monitor how much your blood sugar spikes when you eat foods? Is that information going to help me make more personalised better nutritional choices? 

Well, to be honest, I wouldn't necessarily say so, in this episode I dive into why exactly that is and the considerations to be made.

What do all of these things have in common you ask? Well let me tell you, in this little soundbite of an episode I discuss the difference between causation and correlation. Lots of things are correlated but that doesn't always add up to one CAUSING the other and we can really get carried away with this in nutrition studies. Especially in click-bait headlines. 

Let me know what you think!

Well, this was not the podcast that was planned! However, I took my own advice to put out something less than perfect in the name of consistency, and I tease our next episode all about continuous glucose monitors and if we all really need them, or should we hand over our money immediately. Speak to you soon you legendary not-gurus.

Pardon the sound quality at the beginning of this episode! But if you stick with it, you'll figure out all the answers as to why your gym workouts are not burning as many calories as you think! It really does seem to be a myth that persists, exercise is great for us, and exercise does indeed burn calories but unless you're doing Iron man it is unlikely they burn enough calories to change your body composition significantly. So does that mean you don't have to work out at all? Or does that mean that you can do workouts you enjoy and it's all additive to your overall wellbeing? Tune in and find out :)
