On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by RNTer Meera Vekaria, who shares her journey of losing 22kg to feel and perform at her best in every aspect of life. During Covid-19, Meera had gained weight, and no longer liked what she saw in the mirror. This journey for her was all about building self-confidence, having more energy, beating predispositions to heart disease and diabetes, and feeling a million bucks. Inside we talk a lot about what goes into breaking free of your comfort zone, and how to pull the pin to go to the next level of your transformation journey.   Book A Call To Start Your Journey!   Thanks so much for listening!

In this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by Coach Ed and Ivan on the team to discuss how to approach the festive season for maximum success with your health and fitness goals. Inside we discuss what success looks like, key principles to understand, and some very tactical approaches to every type of social event possible. We also dive into what not to do, what to do if you fall off track, and how to approach it if you’re in a maintenance or muscle building phase. With 2 months to go until 2024, the question to ask yourself is: How do you want to wake up on January 1st? There’s two choices: 1. Wake up like 95% of the world. Hungover, sluggish and scrambling to set New Year’s Resolutions. 2. Be the 5%. Lean, clean and full of steam, ready to attack your well considered 2024 Goals. If you’re in the 2nd bucket, you may be interested in securing your position for our New Year’s cohort starting in January.

I was blown away while recording this episode of RNT Fitness Radio. Nisha’s story is exactly why we do what we do at RNT. At only 36 years young, she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. As a mum with two young children, Nisha and her husband were shaken to the core. Fortunately, after gruelling chemotherapy, her body fought it off. At this point, Nisha wanted to get strong, focus on her health, and give herself more “me time”. After seeing her husband Bhavin undergo an awesome transformation with us, she knew where to go. And after seeing my Road To Vegan Shredded series, she wanted to make the switch to vegan at the same time! Fast forward 10 months and Nisha is in the best shape of her life. She’s strong, energetic, confident and a few weeks ago, she got the 100% all clear from her doctor from her cancer. In this episode we dive into her journey of healing from cancer, the impact on her family, and how her RNT journey has played an important part in her recovery. To see her pictures and read her case study,

On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m joined by RNTer Val, to share his journey with us so far in 2023. After spinning his wheels for many years, trying multiple programmes but never seeing the long-term results he wanted, Val joined us in January 2023. He had a vision of getting shredded, and having the energy and focus to be at his best at home as a dad and husband, and at work as an entrepreneur. Fast forward 9 months and Val is living his best life, pushing forward in areas he didn’t think possible, and finally unlocking the consistency in his lifestyle he’d wanted. If you’d like to see Val’s pictures, check out the case study linked in the show notes. Book A Call To Start Your Journey!   Thanks so much for listening!

A few weeks ago a friend of mine, Shaz Memon, invited me to an exclusive screening of a short film he’d produced, documenting the work of his charity in India. I was blown away by what he’d created, and more importantly, the impact of his charity. So to help spread the word, I invited Shaz onto the podcast to discuss two things. First, how he optimises his lifestyle to be a high performer at work, at home and in his passion projects. Second, to discuss how his charity, Wells On Wheels, came to fruition, and why we have a water crisis on our hands. Shaz is an award-winning dental marketing expert and the founder of Digimax Dental, the world’s highest rated dental marketing agency. He was voted as Top 14th Most Influential in UK Dentistry Top 50 2020, and featured in Top 50 in 2021, 2022, 2023 and 2024. Alongside this he’s published two business books - Instagram for Dentists and Instagram for Business. I’m excited for you to listen to this, and for you to check out the documentary when it hits Amazon soon! Boo

Premila’s only regret with joining RNT was that she waited 3 years. When she joined RNT, she’d just turned 50.  All her life, she’d been really active: frequently running 10 miles and cycling large distances. So she never thought she would need to join a fitness programme. She was of the firm opinion that as long as she exercised and ate well, she could manage on her own. And then, two separate instances made her pause and reconsider. The first was a photo taken at a restaurant of herself with a friend. She was shocked at how she looked! The second, was hearing about a friend in his 50s (as fit and active as herself) having minor heart issues on a hilly bike ride. And that’s when it struck her, she needed support if she wished to improve her health metrics. With no more hesitation, she signed up and gave it her all. And her results have been incredible. With the knowledge she received from RNT, she sharpened her awareness and fine-tuned her approach. She finally felt strong and looked great! And in this episo

After two pregnancies, health and fitness was always on Daksha’s mind. She wanted to feel, look and perform at her best, but nothing really clicked for her. Until her husband Devin came home one day and suggested they jump on RNT together. Having never weight trained before, Daksha went all in on the process to push herself beyond what she thought was possible. She built consistency, found her routine, and even booked herself a photoshoot, where she was in the best shape of her life! Now having consolidated really well, she’s set her sight on performance goals such as getting her first chin-up and push-up, whilst also picking up running. This is an awesome example of what’s possible when you dive in headfirst, trust the process, and reap the rewards of your efforts. To check out Daksha’s shoot pictures, have a look at her case study in the show notes section. Book A Call To Start Your Journey!   Thanks so much for listening!

When Nikhil joined RNT he thought he needed to lose 10-15kgs at the most. He ended up dropping a massive 30kg to shed the excess weight and live his best life. Like many others, he made the mistake of overestimating his muscle mass and underestimating how much fat he carried! The truth was, Lockdown had done a real number on Nikhil’s health. Being sedentary with too much food and not enough exercise resulted in a steady weight gain for him. The weight snuck up on him until one day he stepped on the scale and realised he’d gone over the line. For the first time in his life, he was staring at 3 digits on the scale! He got so self conscious of his size he disliked anyone touching him or hugging him. The best bit about this journey is not Nikhil’s 30kg weight loss. It’s the fact he’s now got the energy to play with his kids, to push himself in his career, and to deepen the relationships with his loved ones. To see his picture and read the story, check out his case study linked in the show notes. Thanks so much fo

Having better, frequent and more fun sex is arguably the biggest secret benefit of getting into the best shape of your life. Sex is an integral part of our health, yet over 350 episodes in, we’ve yet to have a conversation about it. So I wanted to bring on a sex expert to tell us all about it. Today I’m joined by Dr Bat Sheva Marcus, Ph.D, who’s a certified sex therapist, and the author of Satisfaction Guaranteed : How To Have the Sex You’ve Always Wanted. She has spent her life helping people reclaim pleasure in their bodies and spirit and her career has been dedicated to bridging the gap between the medical and the psychological in sexual health.  For 25 years she served as the clinical director of one of the largest sexual health centers in the US. Dr Marcus earned a master’s in public health as well as a Ph.D. in Human Sexuality at the Institute for the Advanced Study of Human Sexuality. In this episode we dive into everything from what the role of sex is, how often is a good amount, what makes great sex

It’s never too late to make a change. And Sandeep’s incredible journey is proof that even at 49 years young, you can build an incredible physique and boost your health and vitality!”   All it took for Sandeep to take action was a few pictures of him taken at a friend’s wedding. He couldn’t ignore the stark difference between how he saw himself mentally and what the mirror reflected back at him.   That moment served as his wake-up call. Determined to shed those extra pounds and improve his well-being, he took the plunge into the RNT program. Sandeep fully committed to the process, and the results speak for themselves: a jaw-dropping weight loss of 30kgs.   What a transformation! The best bit? His long-cherished goal of fitting into jeans he rocked in his early 20s has become a reality, one year before his 50th!

In this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by Coach Ivan to bust a few myths on various things floating around the fitness industry right now. After being asked many times by our members, we thought we’d hit record on the value of stool tests and glucose monitors, whether artificial sweeteners are safe, and the role of scale weight in a body transformation.

Terry felt ashamed when he found himself contemplating liposuction just so he could look and feel more confident at work.   He was ashamed of his body and ashamed that he was even considering surgery! Something deep inside him told him that it wasn’t the right thing to do. And he knew that he would not be able to face his kids if he went down that route.   What he needed was a holistic approach to wellness that would make him feel great and make his kids proud of their dad. With his mind made up, Terry signed up to RNT.   And now 21kgs down, he loves how great he feels everyday. The shame has been replaced with pride and Terry feels more confident than he has in decades!   To see his pictures and read the case study, check out the show notes in the description below.

In this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by Coach Ivan to discuss all things emotional eating. I believe the single biggest reason for inconsistency on a diet is our inability to manage our stress and emotions, and then resort to food or drink as a result.  Emotional eating can show up in many ways, from high pressure work situations, to relationship arguments, to simply boredom and bad habits. And according to a “Stress In America” Survey conducted by American Pyschological Association, 38% of adults have overeaten in the last month due to stress. Interestingly, our own data from a public survey we’ve ran for the last 6 months reported 77% of participants had an episode where they regretted eating as much as they did in the previous month. Emotional and stress eating is a big problem - if you want to build some tools to help you, you’ll love this episode.   Book A Call To Start Your Journey!   Thanks so much for listening!

Recently I was in a conversation with an RNT member who asked, “have you ever thought about recording an episode with the parents of the RNT team to see the different ways they balance parenting and fitness?” I thought this was a brilliant idea, and something I’d love to hear about too.    So I brought in different members of the team: Shwetha, Charlie and Ed into the studios, to find out the routines, tricks and strategies of balancing all the books. What’s interesting is each of us have kids of different ages, and each have different personal stories which influence their approach. It was a fascinating discussion that had me sneaking out the house the very next day at 5.45am for a run before my wife and daughter woke up!   Book A Call To Start Your Journey!   Thanks so much for listening!

Sometimes you need an earth shattering moment to propel you to make a change. Dhiren had many all at once, including the birth of his son, and a serious word from his doctor. At 120kg just shy of 50 years old whilst being borderline pre-diabetic, he was told if he didn’t lose weight he’d have a heart attack before 60. What’s worse is the doctor said it’d probably be fatal.    Dhiren had one thing on his mind: to watch his son grow up. And knowing RNT was the only place to get in shape and most importantly, learn how to stay in shape, the next step was obvious. Dhiren went all in, dropped right down to 68kg, and has completely transformed his mind, body and life.    To see Dhiren’s 50kg weight loss in pictures, check out the case study linked in the show notes.

Kalyani battled yo-yo dieting and felt conscious about her body all her life. At nearly 200lbs, and health issues like cholesterol and knee pain creeping up, a random comment at a family gathering in 2021 became her “trigger” moment to seek change.   Kalyani’s journey with us started in 2022 in her mid 40s, and she’s now unrecognisable from her transformation with a new found confidence that’s pushing her to do things she never thought possible.    To see Kalyani’s 70lbs weight loss in pictures, check out the case study linked in the show notes.
