Andrew Taylor - From deep depression to Spudfit

In 2015 at 35 years old Andrew Taylor was morbidly obese, on the precipice of a host of physical health problems and plagued by clinical anxiety and depression. He could see no way to end the cycle of dieting and binge eating that he had been stuck in since he was a child. He was ready to give up on himself entirely. In one of Andrew's darkest moments he discovered his own unique, healthy and nutritious solution, he lost 55 kilograms (120 pounds) and turned his mental and physical health around. But more importantly, because he treated the root cause of his problem and not just the symptoms, he has changed his relationship with food forever. Andrew has now helped thousands of other people through his Spud Fit programe to use the principles he learned to change their lives too.

Abel James - The Fat-Burning Man

This weeks guest is Abel James from the Fat Burning Man Podcast. After years of frustration, sickness, and increasing flab, Abel stopped listening to the "experts," "gurus," and even his doctors. He buried himself in the research and experimented on himself like a lab rat until he found the truth. It turns out that his "healthy" low-fat, low-cholesterol diet and "effective" running program recommended by magazines, TV shows, and his doctors, were actually causing him to be fat and sick.Once he did the opposite of what his doctors told him, he dramatically improved his health - reversing hypertension, healing his malfunctioning thyroid, and effortlessly shedding 20lbs in 40 days. Skip ahead a few years, and now as host of the award-winning #1 Rated Fat-Burning Man Podcast Abel helps folks to improve their relationship with food, activity, and life by circumventing marketing myths, misinformation, and corporate scheming by eating real foods and engaging in effective, science-backed training to make you lean, healthy, and energetic.

Jon Mitchell - Alcohol abuse, recovery and inspiring others through health and fitness.

This week Paul speaks with Jon Mitchell from STFU Fitness. Jon is a recovering alcoholic who has drastically changed his life and the life of others through health and fitness. Jon describes sobering up as not something that just happens. It's not about hoping for the best, or thinking there's a magical cure, or trusting that others will be there when you fall (some will but most won't). Sobering up is about accepting your addictions precisely as they are; damaging, uncontrollable, unhealthy, deadly and relentless. It's about committing to the betterment of your life. No matter what. People will disappear, your body will change, your environment will mutate, your moods will be all over the place. It's ok, it's a better buzz than any drink or drug out there; to wake up totally sober and clean, to say hi to family and friends without wondering who you hurt or which relationship you damaged the night before - to not need anything but a glance in the mirror to tell yourself you're awesome.
