Lean4Life - Cutting Through Fitness Industry BS |Straight Talking | No Nonsense | Non Sponsored

By Ged O'Hara |Lean4Life

I'm known for straight talking, and have called 'Bullshit' on more than one occasion.

Being involved of both sides of the fitness industry has given me a unique insight to not only the lastes advancements in nutrition and fitness coaching. It's also alowed me to see behind the curtain (think wizard of Oz) to see the tricks that coaches and marketers are using to bamboozle everday people into parting with their hard earned money.

If you wnat to hear a normal guy, cutting through the crap, then listen.

If not, well, don't.

Simple.

The real cost of weight loss injections.

The real cost of weight loss injections.

After hearing that the NHS is rolling out weight loss injections, it got me to thinking.

Instead of treating the symptom, why aren't we treating the cause?

These pens cost £179 for 4 weeks (google search). That's £2327 for the year.

For about half the price, you could have 3 small group PT sessions a week, access to a proven program to improve nutrition and build some muscle, plus access to a qualified NHS nutritionist for a year.

The difference is, the latter will forge life long and sustainable lifestyle changes, while the former is just another quick fix...

Episode 8 - What Drives you

Episode 8 - What Drives you

Hunger. It's something we all experience, but why do we feel hungry?

It's strange to think that the more body fat we carry, the more hungry we feel, even though we have larger stores of spare energy. What drives your hunger?

Is it a desire for energy, or could it be the need for nutrition?

I'm not sure either...

Lean4Life - Don't think of Pink Elephant

If you're looking at setting a goal, and considering the things you need to sacrifice, all you can do is think about what you CAN'T have anymore.

If you flip that on it's head, then you can realy improve your chances of success.

I failed to plan my interview and it went horribly wrong

I failed to plan my interview and it went horribly wrong

Thinking you've got it nailed is for my clients one of the big mistakes they make. 

They stop planning and recording, then stop getting the results, then quit as "it doesn't work"

For most however, taking a step back re-settnig and putting into plac ejust a few simple tweaks is enough to get the results happening again.

I'll tell you why, and what happened to me when I tried to free style it on a Facebook live that was going out to near on a thousand other fitpro's.

Can you exercise to spot reduce fat?

Can you exercise to spot reduce fat?

During a recent chat in the gym, one of my clients, she asked me which exercises will help her legs get slimmer. 

I'll talk about that, and how that just doesn't really work. I'll run some figures about how much to eat, and how much exercise to do.

Myth Busters - You need to eat more to lose weight?!

Myth Busters - You need to eat more to lose weight?!

During a recent call with 5000 online personal trainers, one of the coaches told me his client wasn't eating enough to lose weight, so he'd upped her calories to help her to lose weight. 

This is another myth that needs putting to bed. If you're gaining weight you're eating too much - simples!!

Most of the time when a client is telling me what they're eating, yet still gaining weight, then it's quite simply under reporting or overeating.

If you've any comment, good or bad on this episode, then drop me a line at admin@efitpropt.com and we'll talk it through.

In today's episode I'll talk about eating late at night, fasted cardio, and how they effect either your weight loss or performance goals respectively.
