Why You're Not Losing Weight Despite Doing Everything Right

You Don't Need To Be 100% Consistent To Lose Weight

In this episode, Mike explains why chasing 100% consistency is often the reason people stay stuck. Learn how aiming for "good enough" can help you make real progress without putting your life on hold.

Why You're Not Losing Weight Despite Doing Everything Right

This episode dives into one of the biggest frustrations in fat loss: You're exercising, eating fairly well and trying hard... so why aren't you seeing results? Mike breaks down the hidden habits that quietly sabotage progress, why most people underestimate their calorie intake, and how weekends often undo an entire week of good work. If you feel like you're doing everything right but the scales aren't moving, this episode will help you find the real gap.

You’re not back to square one… you’re just bloated and panicking.

You’re not back to square one… you’re just bloated and panicking. In this episode, I break down the difference between fat gain, weight gain, bloating and scale fluctuations. We talk about why one night out, one higher-calorie day or one bad body image day doesn’t undo weeks of progress. The real danger isn’t the weight spike... it’s the spiral that comes after it. Listen if you need a calmer, more logical way to handle the days where your body feels like it’s gone backwards.

I Did 75 Hard… And I’ll Never Do It Again

In this episode, I’m joined by my client Aoife, a nurse from Cork living in Dublin, to talk about moving from extreme stop-start fitness cycles to building a routine that actually works around real life. Aoife shares how she went from intense cardio, cutting out foods, and even doing 75 Hard while working 12-hour shifts, to finding a more sustainable approach with training, nutrition, shift work, weekends, and social life. We talk about night shifts, hospital takeaways, weight training, confidence, planning ahead, and why lasting results come from structure — not perfection. A great listen for anyone who feels like they’re constantly restarting and blaming themselves, when really, the system just doesn’t fit their life. 🎙️ Want to apply to work with me?

How Keith Got Back In Shape Around Shift Work, Family Life & Real Life

In this client spotlight episode, I sit down with Keith to talk about his journey over the last 4 months. As a shift worker, dad of two and someone juggling a busy life, Keith found himself drifting further away from the standards, fitness and energy levels he once had. We discuss: → Why trying to "go all-in" was holding him back → How simple planning changed everything → Balancing fitness around shift work and family life → The mindset shifts that made progress sustainable → Why feeling better in yourself matters more than the number on the scales If you've ever felt like life is too busy to prioritise yourself, you'll get a lot from this conversation.
