#17: Consistency Is Forever May 10, 2021

Show notes

Consistency is forever!

Scary thought?

Not when you know how to be consistent successfully, and in a way that fits into YOUR life!

In this episode I chat about:

- How everyone wants everything NOW, and how that can result in short-term satisfaction, but not long-term success.

- Drastic changes equal drastic results, but how drastic changes aren't sustainable.

- The importance of improving incrementally and consistently.

- The compound effect, massive results can be achieved through consistency.

- The beauty of the sweet spot with consistency.

- What works for one person doesn't necessarily work for another, there is no one plan that fits all.

#15: Systems Over Willpower - No Plan B Apr 18, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, I explain why we should never leave anything down to willpower. Willpower is the least reliable method of achieving any goal, whether it is a nutrition goal, a fitness goal, a work goal, or a relationship goal... DO NOT rely solely on willpower. Systems need to be put in place, a structure needs to be established, and habits need to be formed. You need to strive to become a "No Plan B" person.

This episode covers:

- How my 10km run this morning resulted in me recording this episode.

- The 3 steps to achieving any long-term goal, and becoming a "No Plan B" person.

- If your strategy for achieving a goal is left to willpower, you have already failed.

- How I put systems in place for managing my training, to get shit done.

- How you can apply "Systems over Willpower" to manage your training.

- How I put systems in place for managing my nutrition, to make sure I stay on track.

- How you can apply "Systems over Willpower" to manage your nutrition.

- Other areas in life that the "System over Willpower" approach applies to.

- Why I pride myself on being a "No Plan B" person.

#13: Reasons For Weight Gain That Have Nothing To Do With Body Fat Mar 04, 2021

Show notes

This episode focuses on the many reasons that can result in an increase on the weighing scales, that have nothing to do with you gaining body fat.

In this episode I also discuss:

The difference between the terms 'body weight' and 'body fat'. Regardless of what you think, they are not the same thing!

If you are on a fat loss journey how to best use the weighing scale as a tool to measure success.

The only two ways to kick start fat loss again if you've noticed a plateau with your weight.

Why carrying more body fat, or more body muscle, results in you burning more calories at rest.

The two types of mindset approaches people can take if they don't see a shift on the weighing scales.

.....and why you should take the type B approach!

#12: Dean Jacob's Weight Loss Journey With Kellie Feb 22, 2021

Show notes

In this episode, Kellie chats to a former client Dean Jacob.

Dean came to Kellie looking to lose weight, increase fitness, and change his lifestyle.

He started Kellie's 8-week program weighing 392 pounds and finished it weighing 348 pounds, a fat loss of 3 stone and 2 pounds in just 8 weeks.

As of today, which is 6 weeks since Dean finished Kellie's program, he weighs 327 pounds, a total fat loss of 4 stone and 9 pounds in just 14 weeks.

What's even more impressive than the weight loss, is how Dean's mindset shifted throughout the 8 weeks, and how differently he looks at health and fitness now. He can finally enjoy his lifestyle while still losing weight and hitting his long-term goals in the process.

If you want to know how to lose weight the right way, give this episode a listen! It will be sure to pull on the heartstrings in some parts and have you in knots of laughter in others!
