On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m joined by fellow RNT Coach Ivan Gavranic to discuss more of the intricacies of the investment phase, with a specific focus on the work that goes into building a true lifestyle solution that aligns with your core purpose, values and desired future state.    At RNT we’re driven  to educate our students on how to stay in shape and unleash the power of the physical as the vehicle to transform your life, and in this episode we discuss just how much education is required to do so. It’s full of trial and error, having an open mind, and a deep underpinning of accountability.    In the first part of the episode, I discuss the lesson I learnt from meeting the Rock at the gym in 2012, during my days working in a supplement shop, and how the physical consistently proves to be the best and most under-utilised career development tool for all of us. It’s a false economy that when we’re busy, we neglect our health, but as I’ve learnt from collapsing in the past our of poor self care, it always comes back to bite you.    Taking care of the physical, and yourself as a being, is something we all owe to ourselves to do to fulfil our greater purpose here. Ivan is someone who lives and breathes this, so I thought of no one better to have a conversation with on this subject.   ‘’If I never took the step to really pursue that physical transformation, I don’t think any of this would have happened’’                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 161 - AV & Ivan Gavranic: How To Develop Your Career & Lifestyle Solution Together

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m joined by fellow RNT coach Samir Oukili, to discuss his story and journey in the industry, both on a personal and professional level. This one goes deep as Samir shares some of his struggles around mental health, his relationship with food, and how he’s turned it all around to shed the skin to a new being. We talk about his purpose, his new family, and the importance of self awareness and critical thinking, and why both are sorely missing in most. With over a decade of industry insight, this is an episode that will offer value to people at all stages of the journey.   ‘’You don’t have a belief if you haven’t challenged the opposite side’’                                                                                                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 160 - AV & Samir Oukili: Developing Self Awareness, Critical Thinking & Battle Depression

Purpose is everything. Being a purpose driven business transforms the way you think, act and behave in business. Sadly, very few people and businesses in the fitness industry are purpose driven. They all want to “help people”, yet snake oil marketing for quick fixes - aimed and clients and coaches alike, has left the industry broken and void of all genuine purpose. Ego has prevailed, and it’s become dog eat dog. From a quick stat check, the fitness industry has an astonishing 80% turnover rate, meaning so many talented coaches are leaving our industry every year. Why? Because there’s no stability, security or progression. Coaches are expected to be business owners, and can’t do what they love - create impact and transform lives. Without turning this into a rant, let’s get into the episode today, where I’m joined by our Business Manager, Puja Teli, who comes on to offer her objective view on the fitness industry, why it’s broken, and most importantly of all, our first step to transforming it. Without further ado, let’s dive in.   ‘’ Purpose is never ending’’                                                                                                           Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 158 - Kam Taj: Shedding The Skin To A New Identity

This is the first a multiple part series where I’ll be joined by different members of the team to talk all about the intricacies of the investment phase. In part one, I chat with Nathan about finding your deeper purpose for long term investing, and why it’s so key to stay in shape for life effortlessly. I also reflect back on my relationship with food back in 2014, and how my bingeing / restrict yo yo cycle almost landed me in setting up a dessert lounge. If you’re someone who’s in an investment phase that wants to understand the underpinning of what staying in shape with a lifestyle solution is all about, this will be a big one.   ‘’The lack of investment phase is the reason why we have a weight management problem’’                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 156 - Tom Hollis: Automating Behaviour, Education & Navigating the Investment Phase

Today I’m joined by long term RNT’er, Shiv Haria, who epitomises everything about our mission at RNT, and I can’t wait for you to listen to this conversation between us.   While Shiv’s started off as a journey to improve his physique, it’s developed and evolved into a journey of how to become a high performer in all areas of his life. Especially for his career - where he uses the physical as the vehicle to fuel his growing business.    A common trait we’ve seen in those who STAY in shape year round is that it goes beyond the physical. It becomes about connecting the dots between what the physical gives to your highest priorities in life - whether that be your relationships, career, health or business. It has to be about something more, and it has to become about being a high performer in that domain. For context, Shiv has held a ‘4 pack’ for over two years now, which shows his real change.    When you start using rules to fuel your performance, you stay in shape as a byproduct. Having rules that work takes trial and error, education, accountability and effective coaching to get right, and it’s arguably the most important part of building a lifestyle solution that works for you year round.   In this episode, we discuss the first three years of his journey, and how he’s moved through the gears to unlock more and more on his pursuit of self mastery.    If you want to learn how to be a high performer and STAY in shape, listen right till the end of this one.                              ‘’You can’t expect to be having universal transformations on day 3’’                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

I’ve got a special episode for you here where I’m joined by Sanjeeta Halai, to discuss her journey a year on since her first Transformation Checkpoint in the summer of 2019. Getting into the shape of your life is easy. Staying there is a whole different ballgame. It requires a rewiring of your behaviour, mindset and identity to unleash your version 2.0, become a high performer, and use the physical as the vehicle in every aspect of your life. In this chat, where I’m also joined by our Head of Education, Nathan Johnson, we discuss what it takes to truly stay in shape for life, and breaking the dieting cycle forever.                                                    ‘’As you go through the journey, you realise there is a connection between your mental state and your physical state, and it’s only when your mental state is right, that your physical can be right’’                                                             Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 153 - Sanjeeta Halai: How to Rewire Your Behaviour, Mindset and Identity to Unleash Your V2.0

Suicide is the single biggest killer of men under the age of 45 in the UK. That's a seriously worrying statistic. Mental health in all ages, genders, races and cultures is one of the least spoken about, most taboo subject. The idea of being vulnerable and accepting the need for help is terribly hard for many of us.    On this episode, I speak to Neil Shah, founder of the International Wellbeing Insights and Chief De-Stressing Office of the Stress Management Society. He's a leading international expert on stress management and wellbeing, and author of a few bestselling books on the topic. And on the podcast, we talk about the five core pillars of health, from mental, physical, social, emotional and spiritual, and why all five are critical.    We discuss the taboo around psychedelics, current events, and what life is set to be like in the coming years. This is a candid, no holds barred conversation with Neil that I'm excited to share with you.    ‘’We need more people that are aspiring to be not normal’’                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 151 - The Seven Faces Of Online Transformation Coaching – How To Be A Killer

On today’s episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by Sandhya Domah, who discusses the concept of Human Design, and how to use it to perform at your highest level in everything you do. After having my own Human Design reading a month or so ago, I thought some of the insights were fascinating, so I wanted to bring Sandhya on to share more.    In this episode we discuss the five different types we generally fall in, and what each one means. As a bonus for you all, Sandhya is offering 10% off a Human Design reading for any bookings made before 8th July - the link is in the show notes if you’d like to try it!   "The beauty of this system is to show that each of us are like little pieces in a big puzzle"                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 150 - Sandhya Domah – What Is Human Design?

Today on RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by a special guest, Bilal Khan, who’s come back on the show after first appearing on episode 113 to talk all about some of the events happening in the world today. The big question we tackle is if black lives seem to matter today, will they matter to organisations, people and government tomorrow? As a diversity and inclusion expert, he says his job shouldn’t even exist in this world. Through the episode we talk about whether there’s a solution, what the accountability needs to be, protesting during covid, why he didn’t post a black square, and how to start tackling the deep rooted racism and stereotyping in society. This is an important conversation that I urge everyone to listen to right to the end, and then share it with someone who needs to hear it too.                       ‘’So a lot of people that started with the black square, amazing, but what are you doing next?’’                                                            Thanks so much for listening!

Ep 148 - The Hitman, Kmak & AV: The Last Dance

Every once in a while, I come across a story that completely blows me away. It causes me to stop, think and marvel at the level of belief, fortitude and resilience required to both transform their body and life.   Jemie Mistry’s story epitomises this, and she’s today’s guest on RNT Fitness Radio. Growing up and living with cerebral palsy, Jemie’s journey has not always been straight forward. But over the past two years I’ve witnessed her defy previous limiting beliefs, break through new barriers, and use the physical as the vehicle for the greater good.    Having lost 25kg to reach her first checkpoint recently, Jemie’s story highlights the power of being committed, consistent and coachable.    Her physical change is incredible, but as you’ll soon hear, how she’s now using it as a vehicle to do the previously unimaginable is life changing.    We’ve also written up her case study where you can read more and see the pictures, and I’ve linked it in the show notes.   ‘’I’m going to sign up, I’m going to be cashing in a month later because I know it’s not going to work for me, but here I am 2 years later’’                                                            Thanks so much for listening!
