It's very much appreciated and I'm looking forward to bringing more guests on and to keep bringing you the best info I can.  This week I have Nikki Gibson on.

She gives some fantastic advice on adjusting training goals and methods throughout lockdown, stress and its effects, we chat about wearable tech, sleep and its importance and a lot more besides.  Enjoy the episode.  Dave Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

It's easy, when times are a bit more challenging, to always default to the easy option. Choosing Netflix over a workout, takeaway over home cooked, or lazing on the sofa instead of getting out for a walk. But we know that choosing the positive options will make us feel better, even if it means a little more effort is required to make them happen.  In todays episode, I talk more about that, as well as going into the idea that you need to forget about waiting for the "optimal" time to take action. The best time is never going to appear, so take action now, no matter how small it may seem, and over time you'll see the accumulation of these small steps as they add up over time.  As always, thank you for taking the time to check out the episode, please consider leaving a review and/or rating wherever you get your podcasts!

So, here we are, again. Back in lockdown in the UK and I'm missing the gym already! But we don't complain about things, we find solutions, right? Today I talk a bit about lockdown and how you can control a lot more than you think and use that to your advantage. From your information sources, to your schedule and more, you have a lot more that you can influence to help you cope with the latest round of lockdowns and come out the other side feeling a bit more shiny than you might have otherwise.  The resources I mention in the podcast are below: www.edinburgh-pt.com/resources www.edinburgh-pt.com/online-training Free facebook group As always, thank you for taking the time to check out the episode, please consider leaving a review and/or rating wherever you get your podcasts!

In todays short episode, we cover goal setting, understanding the why behind your goal, breaking them down in to short term outcomes and processes and how to measure your progress.  Thank you so much for listening to this podcast over the last 9 months, I hope you have a great New Year, and I'll be back in 2021! Dave

Gosh darn it. The new restrictions here in the Uk, hitting on Boxing day, mean that gyms will be closing for at least 3 weeks while we try to stop the spread of this new Covid strain. It definitely comes as a blow to all of us who loved being back in the gym and able to train the way we wanted to. But we don't moan about our problems, we find solutions. So I've set up a new free training group on Facebook to provide as much as I can in the way of training, nutrition, mindset, support, accountability and fun as I can to help as many people as possible get 2021 off to a flying start. You can get to the group here - https://www.facebook.com/groups/487742768859876 Also in todays episode, I chat a bit about what I've been thinking about in terms of training for 2021, Mainly about the physiological buffer (for want of a better term) between what we can do and what we need to do to handle our day to day activities and maintain a higher quality of life with regards to our physical and mental tools. Enjoy the episode. Dave

Sometimes I struggle with ideas for the podcast. But now and then, I'll have a chat with a client and a good idea pops into my head that I can share on here.  So this week I go into a mindset shift for those days where things don't go to plan and how you can reframe it to ensure you don't just quit on the entire week.  I also discuss a social media post I put up about staying clear of the extremes and finding the middle ground that works best for you as an individual.  I hope you enjoy the podcast!

One of the commonly asked questions from new clients is that of breakfast. Do you need to have it? What happens if you skip it? What is a good breakfast? In this week's podcast, I give the smart ass answer to the question of whether breakfast is necessary or not, and how to make it work best for you.  I also go over 2 of the 7 habits in my updated ebook, "Fat Loss without Counting Calories", giving you actionable steps you can use right now to start making progress. You can download the full ebook for free from my website, here - www.edinburgh-pt.com As always, if you have any questions about todays podcast, or have topics or questions for future episdoes, you can mesage me on Instagram or email me here Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Why do you train? I mean, what is your real why? It's probably not the 6 pack or big deadlift, because, let's face it, those things don't really matter all that much in the real world.  But taking some time to think about your driving reasons behind why you train and what it allows you to do, makes it a whole lot easier to push through the tough days and times you really CBA with training.  And following off the back of that, taking the time to train and improve your physical and mental tools allows you to be better able to help the others around you that need it.  You can join the mailing list and make sure you don't miss an episode or block post right here - https://awe2620.aweb.page/p/294adce6-bd3f-4b23-9a99-16c01f0ee3d1 As always, if you have any questions about todays podcast, or have topics or questions for future episdoes, you can mesage me on Instagram or email me here Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

The answer? More.  Sometimes it's more training, more intensity and more aggressiveness.  Sometimes it's more rest, sleep, and calories.  Knowing when to push in training and when to back off is a skill you need to master in order to get great results and in todays podcast I give a you a few ideas to help make better decisions.  As always, if you have any questions about todays podcast, or have topics or questions for future episdoes, you can mesage me on Instagram or email me here Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

We think we like lots of freedom, at least when it comes to our work, food and training, but in reality, the more freedom we have the worse we perform.  Covid and the lockdowns (sounds like a band from the 70s...) has shown that working from home isn't all it's cracked up to be, eating what we want, when we want is probably not a great idea and training without some kind of framework is only going to result in you spinning your wheels.  Today I go over a few ideas to help you build a little more structure into these 3 areas and hopefully help you get more flexibility in your approach and make more progress.  Have an awesome week!

What do melting ice cubes and fat loss have in common?  Habits are the foundation of your success with whatever goal you have, consistent effort in the small, seemingly insignificant habits each day, add up over time. And in this weeks episode I go into 4 tips to help you build habits and have confidence that even the smallest habits, when picked well and done consistently, can add up to big results.  And I also make a commitment to being more consistent with one of my own habits.  If you have questions for future episodes, or topics you'd like me to cover, email me here or message me here Have an awesome week!

This week I had the pleasure of talking to Sara Eydmann about all things fitness tracker.  Sara completed a super interesting dissertation as part of her degree looking at the impacts that fitness trackers have on our ability to self monitor exercise, their effects on self worth and self esteem and more. It was really fascinating, and I had no idea the extent of the impact they can have for some people.  We also chat about the benefits and how to get the most out of them (and whether you should have one or not), and what the current best option might be.  You can find Sara here: Instagram - Wellbeinginsideout Facebook - Wellbeing inside out If you have questions for future episodes, or topics you'd like me to cover, email me here or message me here Have an awesome week!

Today we look at eating too little for body comp progress.  What happens when you eat too little? Is starvation mode a thing? What really happens when your progress stalls while seemingly eating very low calorie diets? Also, protein timing and distribution for improved results and my stress warning system and how to manage stresses.  You can check out https://www.mind.org.uk/ as mentioned in the show.  If you have questions or topics for the podcast, get in touch at dave@edinburgh-pt.com or via Instagram   Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

We tend to focus on the minutiae of fat loss, worrying more about meal timings, which diet plan is best, and what supplements are going to help most, forgetting that they don't really do much to move us closer to our goals.  Instead of focussing our efforts on those, shifting your focus to the 3 areas that really push you towards your goals the most, can transform your results in a relatively short time. In today's episode I cover these 3 areas and give you simple ways to work out your plan of attack.  If you have questions or topics for the podcast, get in touch at dave@edinburgh-pt.com or via Instagram   Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

The way you decide on a dietary approach is likely why it failed you.  We pick our diet based on what we see other people do rather than what will serve us the best, so maybe changing our approach will allow for more sustainable practices and far better results. 

Fitness isn't really about 6 pack abs and a big deadlift PR, as cool as those may be. Building good training and nutrition habits now is about laying the foundation for a better quality of life as you age. Building the physical and mental resilience and ability to handle whatever physical challenges you come up against as you age helps you stay independent for longer.

When thinking about our goals, we often take time to think about what we can do to get them, but we don't often take the time to give much thought about what we are willing to give up to achieve them.   In today's episode I go into the various trade offs you might need to consider in order to get yourself to where you want to be, both from a performance standpoint and a fat loss one.  Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

Tracking calories isn't obsessive, it's data collection. We should be eating more intuitively but given the availability and ease of buying/ getting delivered hypercaloric and hyper palatable foods, our ability to eat more intuitively is limited. By tracking calories, at least for a while, we can reset our understanding of how many calories we eat and learn to eat more intuitively once again.

Fat loss workouts don't exist. After a section in this past weekends blog post, and an Instagram post , I had a request from a follower to go into this idea a bit more deeply. So this week I covered: Why fat loss isn't a training adaptation, What training adaptations are, Why these types of workouts don't burn fat, and what they do burn, And how to choose a better route to fat loss results. As always, thank you so much for checking out the episode, and if you have any questions or feedback, get in touch at dave@edinbrugh-pt.com or via Instagram!

Today I chat a bit about the 2 key principles behind making progress in the gym and how to apply them to your training. I also cover the fast vs slow fat loss pros and cons I posted in a recent blog post to help you make the decision about which approach is right for you.  "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

I GOT BACK TO THE GYM TODAY!!!!111!1!! So I may have talked a bit about that today, I also talk about an idea from a book I've been listening to,  "Lifespan" by Dr David Sinclair, and the idea of lifespan and health span, and your ability to maintain an independent, high quality of life as you age. (As well as the good news about getting started) Finally, the idea of taking no days off when creating a new habit. By doing something every day, no matter how small an action, then you are reinforcing your new habit circuitry.  If you have questions or topics for the podcast, get in touch at dave@edinburgh-pt.com or via Instagram  Title music - "Metalmania" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/

This week I have 5 tips for helping you get back to the gym in the most pain free, time friendly way possible.  Whether your gym has opened already, or, if like us here in Scotland, you're still waiting, these 5 tips can help make the transition back to training more smooth. 

This week I've been chatting to clients in their coaching calls, and the overriding theme has been planning and consistency.  As the lockdown restrictions ease more and we have ever more pulls on our time, it's more and more important to have a plan that allows us to make the time for our health and fitness. Setting out a good plan is a key part of your health and fitness journey, allowing you to focus on what matters.  Then being consistent with all the basics is what will actually get you the results you want. I go over the levels of nutrition, performance and recovery that you need to cover in order to be successful in whatever your goals are.  Enjoy the episode,  Dave

Is there a secret fat loss tactic we're not telling you? No. Sorry, there is no secret method that PTs are holding onto until you give us money!  This weeks episode I look at the 6 factors that affect fat loss, and how you can zero in on what works best for you.  Consistency, calorie balance, protein intake, carbs and fats, meal timings and supplements. What matters? What doesn't?  Check it all in the episode. 

What if, instead of constantly trying to make yourself less in the pursuit of improved body composition aka fat loss, you aimed to give yourself, and become, more? More food whilst maintaining a calorie deficit. More strength and resilience instead of sweating calories off? More sleep and recovery time to make everything that bit easier. It's time to get out of the idea that you have to make yourself less.

With fat loss, there is no going back to eating normally. Eating normally is what got you to the point of wanting to go on a fat loss diet in the first place. Instead, you need to learn the skills, knowledge and habits that allow you to build a new normal.
