FTV; 

In this week's episode I am joined by Personal trainer, gym owner, podcast host and all-round good guy Brad Williams.

California based Brad specialises in working with men and women over 40 and we talk about the differences that he sees in how someone over 40 should eat and train compared to someone in their 20s.

Some of the things we touch on are;

Life is different for the over 40s but how does this impact exercise?
Is it more difficult for someone over 40s to get the same results as someone in their 20s?
Why the hormone levels of the over 40s must be taken into account when training/aiming for certain results.
Should you eat differently past 40?
What food go on his eat or don't eat list?
Which foods should you always try to buy organic?
What supplementation does Brad recommend for someone over 40?

and much, much more.

Check out Brad's amazing "Over 40 fitness hacks" podcast

This week I am delighted to finally bring you the interview I did with Dr Michael T Myers Jr MD about vaccines.
Just to let you know who he is;
Dr. Michael T. Myers Jr., MD was the Chief of Primary Care, Pediatrics, and Practice Transformation for Summit Health New Jersey, one of the state’s largest medical groups, before he retired in 2025. A physician leader with more than 35 years of experience in medical group practice management, public health initiatives, and health care consulting, Dr. Myers has held leadership positions at Partners HealthCare in Boston (now Mass General Brigham), Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, and PricewaterhouseCoopers. 
During the COVID-19 pandemic, he served as COVID-19 scientific consultant to Stonehill College in Easton, Massachusetts, and was appointed Adjunct Lecturer.
His first book, COVID-ology: A Field Guide [CRC Press |2022], is an academic title for college health and science majors, was released in December 2022. Dr. Myers completed his primary care residency at Mount Auburn Hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and received his MD from Harvard, BA from Johns Hopkins, and MBA from Northeastern University. 
He is now the author of "The Vaccine Bible" an absolute must-have for anyone even remotely interested in kid's health, vaccines and general health.
We are talking EVERYTHING to do with vaccines.
Why the vaccine schedule is what it is (Why are there soo many shots??)
What vaccines really are, and what they do.
What are measles and why is there a flare-up in the number of cases.
Why we see an uptick in the number of vaccine hesitant people? 
How do you asses the risk of a vaccine Vs the risk of an illness?

and much, MUCH more.
As I've been saying on the podcast for weeks, I had a great conversation with him on this and am delighted that I'm able to release this just before his book gets published (tomorrow!) 
You can buy the Vaccine Bible at all your good bookstores, just go click on this link (The ebook is an absolute insane bargain!)

This week, fresh off the press, I am talking about C-section recovery and GLP-1 Medication.

I've had some questions and articles sent to me about both so thoughtit'd be nice to cover the topics.

Is C-section recovery really that different from a vaginal birth recovery that you need a different program?
Why you should always, ALWAYS, see a pelvic floor physio postpartum, even if you've had a C-section.
With regards to GLP-1 meds;
Why it's not a great idea at all to start these postpartum.
Why I always tell people to NOT focus on weightloss postpartum
And, why it's a very troubling trend to see companies starting to sell these for PP weightloss.

And more.

Laura Reardon is a certified Child Behaviour Specialist, she is trained as an Emotion Coach, Childhood Anxiety Coach, and Parent Coach, and she’s the founder of Laura Reardon Coaching.

Laura helps parents who feel frustrated, worried, and unsure how to respond when their kid reacts to their big emotions like anger and anxiety and their big behaviors like lashing out and shutting down.

We talk about a wide-range of things.

What is Emotional Intelligence?
Can it be taught?
Why do children respond differently to big events happening in their life than adults do?
Why is it completely normal for kids to "over-react"?
How can you help your kids process the big emotions better?
Why it makes sense to treat every child differently and take a personalised approach to raising kids.

From the vault, as promised last week, an episode I did a while ago.

Did you know that  overtraining/undereating and and the exercise/food balance can impact your menstrual cycle, bone health, and mental health?

Especially for women who's body has just gone through an intense, and often traumatic, experience like pregnancy and giving birth this can really have a huge impact on your health.
You're seemingly doing "everything right" yet feel like you're struggling all the time and even your menstrual cycle can get messed up.

RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport) is much more common in postpartum women  than you might think and Allison Yamamoto has very kindly agreed  to come onto my little show to talk about this.

We talk about the causes of RED-S.
How society's pressures on women can cause women to, unknowingly, be sabotaging their own health.
How a "I have to do everything" approach is actually holding you back and impacting your health.
How a workaholic lifestyle, which most postpartum women have (when's the last time YOU had a break?) leads to issues
And, of course, we discuss the solution!

Allison is absolutely amazing and I have no doubt you'll be very happy that you listened to this episode.

You can find her in all the usual places;

Instagram
And TikTok for you cool kids
