The Brian Keane Podcast

Siobhan is a personal trainer, online coach and MyProtein sponsored athlete. She is currently living in Bali and this is her hat trick appearance on the podcast. In March 2018, we recorded our first episode on living a life of freedom, avoiding fad diets and how putting accountability photos on Instagram changed her life. In June 2019 for round 2, we talked about relationships with food, the 'fitness' identity' and finding self-love. Today's conversation is a long overdue round 3. Here are some of the things we talked about. Her current morning routine and how that sets up her day The most underrated fat loss tool of looking at calories over the week vs day by day Her experience with disordered eating and advice to those struggling with their food or body relationship How to stress less about weight loss by focusing on other areas of your life How to stop caring as much about how you look and the opinions of others Vlogging on YouTube BMI scales and why you should think about ditching the weighing scale Book recommendations And more Shownotes: Siobhan's Website: https://ohfitness.ie/ Siobhan's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/siobh.ohagan/?hl=en Podcast 135: https://briankeanefitness.com/podcast/135-siobhan-ohagan-living-life-freedom-avoiding-fad-diets-putting-accountability-photos-instagram-changed-life/ Podcast 228: https://briankeanefitness.com/podcast/228-siobhan-ohagan-on-relationships-with-food-the-fitness-identity-and-finding-self-love/ BRIAN'S LINKS: The online business podcast https://briankeanefitness.com/business-podcast/ How to move your PT business online course https://briankeanefitness.com/online-business-course/ Rewire Your Mindset course (new): https://briankeanefitness.com/rewire-your-mindset-course/ BKF Online Course: https://briankeanefitness.com/bkf-online/

Today's episode is a fly on the wall conversation with one of my closest friends, Paul Dermody.

Dr. John Jaquish, inventor of X3 and best-selling author, debunks fitness myths like cardio for fat loss. He discusses why weightlifting is inefficient, the benefits of variable resistance training, optimizing nutrition, and the truth about muscle growth without muscle damage. The podcast covers topics like muscle confusion theory, one meal a day strategy, and the science behind optimal fitness practices.

I don't share too many of my podcast interviews, but this one was exceptionally enjoyable talking on some topics that I haven't previously covered. If you want to hear more of my backstory and how my mindset has evolved over the years, then give this a listen. I also talk about the link between social media and mental health and how Instagram is like the wizard of oz and the highlight reel vs the reality of the sweaty man behind the curtain.

Tim Spector is Professor of Genetic Epidemiology at King's College London. He has won several academic awards and published over 700 academic papers, a large proportion of which relate directly to nutrition and the causes of obesity. Since 2011 he has been leading the largest microbiome project in the UK, using genetic sequencing to study the bacteria in the guts of 5,000 twins. He is the lead investigator for BRITISH GUT, the UK's largest open-source science project to understand the microbial diversity of the human gut. He is a prolific writer with several popular science and diet books, the most recent of which will be the focus of today's conversation. That book is called Spoon-Fed: Why Almost Everything We've Been Told about Food is Wrong. If you've never questioned the conventional "wisdom" when it comes to the food choices you make or you just geek out on nutrition and anything to do with the gut (like me), then this is a must listen. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's podcast: Why personalized nutrition is the way forward and the problem with 'one size fits all' diets. The diet myth and if you look after your gut how your gut will look after you. The most unsupportive myth for people with fat or weight loss goals. The optimal diet and lifestyle for gut health. What do look out for when choosing fish, meat and plants to eat. Studying identical twins and what that shows us about weight loss and genetics. Why you can't out exercise a bad diet and the importance of gut microbes for weight loss. Breaking down all the major nutritional misconceptions and myths out there.
