Today we go into why putting in a graft in the gym will only do you good, and how to make sure when you do – you're getting the most from it you can. We also go into pain and resiliency, and how so many fall short because they think something bad is going to happen – when in reality, that thought alone will cause more damage than any injury.
-
Today we discussed the topic of RED-S (Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport). Although it sounds like something only athletes may struggle with – that is not the case. RED-S is essentially over exercising and under fuelling. It's attempting to put our bodies through sessions we are just not prepared for, or consistently under-eating rather than spending MOST of the time in energy balance (maintenance).

Today we go into the common misconceptions around one or the other – when humans need both to thrive. A lot of these misconceptions come from bodybuilding, and somehow wormed their way into mainstream fitness. Cardio adds years to your life, resistance adds life to your years. Both, not, "Which one?

No two schedules are the same, which is why no two programmes are the same. Today's episode goes into how to find one that works for you, and why comparison will only set you back.

Quite often the issue is hitting us square in the face. But it's easy to miss the things that matter, because they're often the hardest and require the biggest effort. We have to remember that acknowledging the pounds saves time! And gives you more bang for your buck. The extra mile is never crowded, pick up those pounds.

We took inspiration from Craig Massey on this episode and dug a little deeper into finding that sweet spot of challenge which will make or break your fitness success. Too hard? You lose motivation, get injured, find yourself in pain, feel disheartened. Too easy? You're bored, uninspired, not progressing, stagnant. Sweet spot? You're progressing, challenged, motivated, making mistakes and learning – it's what we should all be hunting for!

Sometimes it really is staring us in the face. Don't get us wrong, there is usually digging needed – but that digging usually comes AFTER identification of the LHF. It can be complex, it can be incredibly simple – but bringing awareness to it is key.
-
Coaching IS transformative by nature – and today we dive into the language and how it's been a bit butchered by the industry. We walk around the assumptions and the reality, as well as showcasing great examples of true transformations in fitness.
-
Today we talk about our own definitions of success, why they are so important, and how they help us to keep going. We also ask if those alone are compelling enough to keep our feet on the gas, and what to do if they're not quite there yet. Lots of tangents and vulnerable chats as always.
-
Today we did a big deep dive into the zone of proximal development, or what some like to call it, the Goldilocks theory. We look into ways of knowing that your training is too easy (and therefore boring), just right (and therefore great for long term progress), or too hard (which may lead to injury, poor recovery, and time off).
-
Today's episode focused on starting where you want to end and filling in the gaps to get there. We spoke on strength, fitness, HYROX, and nutrition – and how an idea starts at the beginning and a goal starts at the end.
-
It's not the first time we've spoken on this topic, and it won't be the last. Cardio, even in 2024, is still being sold as a quick hit – something to add on if you have time. We believe it should take a seat at the top table along with strength training, and that it needs to be understood from a long term perspective.
-
BOTH FINE. We would never demonise either, but depending on your goal, that question could be really important. Today's episode goes into how we separate the two and why it's important to know what the intention is. Many of us spend our fitness lives running around in circles not going anywhere – the answer to this question might just make that easier for you.

This week’s episode we go into how we can set goals which are not only realistic, but open and honest conversation around where you are and where you want to get to. We chat how would you navigate the scenario as a coach, or as a client when setting those extreme or elaborate goals. From onboarding to execution we cover it all.

Today we go into the distractions that young coaches often get sucked into (us included). There are so many very easy things to be doing instead of the really hard, vulnerable work. One lot of things will guarantee small dopamine hits and ego boots, and the other log may get you a long term, meaningful career in fitness. Which one will it be?
-
This week share some of our own personal stories around attachment styles and how they relate to our health and fitness.

Context and nuance are SO important in fitness, but you also can't beat a little reality check. This week we go into some honesty as concisely as possible (short and sweet) around what it really takes to see HUGE improvements within health and fitness, and how sometimes we think we've given it everything, only to look back and see that we cut corners.
-
We go over time today, and how biases around how long we should be exercising for impact our potential in fitness. We talk about those with plenty of it, and those with hardly any at all. We also go into different goals and how somethings require time whether we like it or not – we can't shoehorn endurance into 60 minutes a week no matter how hard we try. What’s your thoughts? Let us know over on our socials @awsh_pod

Today we went into our own stories, and explained why truly knowing yourself can lead to much bigger returns when it comes to long term fitness and great coach/client relationships. What is fitness to us? What kind of person do we want to work with? Who brings out the best in us and seeks to understand? Thank you for listening!
