Heart disease is largely preventable. In this podcast heart surgeon Dr Ovadia tells us exactly how to stay off his operating table with just a handful of lifestyle and nutrition tips that are quick to implement.

Dr Philip Ovadia joins us to discuss the main themes of his upcoming book, detailing how to stay metabolically healthy.

We cover what being metabolically healthy means, and identify Phil's 5 key markers to check for in metabolic health.

Much of metabolic health can be attributed to lifestyle choices, particularly those to do with diet and exercise and Phil details some common food choices (particularly seed oils and certain processed carbohydrates) that may be causing us some long term problems.

Importantly, rather than detailing too much into calorie numbers Phil outlines how food choices might have a bigger impact on helping those who need to lose weight to do so.

Dr Ovadia's book "Stay off my operating table" is released Nov 11th 2021.

Pete Troupos SSC and staff coach for Starting Strength joins Byron during his UK visit of Summer 2021.
Pete flew in from Florida to hold two camps with SSC Carl Raghavan in London, both sold out.

In this interview Pete explains the Starting Strength method and why it has such a meaningful impact when applied by lifters young and old.

He discusses the fitness/gym industry in general and goes on to explain key differences in the approach that Starting Strength takes to provide transformative changes through basic barbell training delivered by Starting Strength Coaches.

We discuss the allure of physique based training in motivating people to begin exercise, what people can expect when they begin strength training and why women should not be worried about negative effects of barbell and strength training when it comes to their appearance.

Pete also talks about the focus on progressing within strength training, why it is a worthy undertaking when there are many other forms of exercise available and how it proves its relevance within day to day living, especially as we age.

Pete goes on to talk about why there are only around 120 Starting Strength Coaches in the world, and he details the rigorous process for going beyond the industry standard of Personal Trainer to become a coach and how Starting Strength Coaches are assessed.

This week Mike and Byron interview Harry Makawa about his journey into sports and early age and uncovering that he had chronic illness. At the time of interview Harry is little over 20 days post liver transplant surgery and in this remarkable interview we talk about the role of health and physical activity and his approach to managing his mindset during his adversity with health.

Harry talks about his early years growing up in Africa and then moving over to the United Kingdom, his path to becoming a police officer which was unusual for him at the time and he describes as  more luck.

He discusses The influence the family has had on him as well as professional colleagues in the police force and in hospitals. Throughout the podcast the one thing that becomes clear is his mindset of competitiveness, humour and positivity and how that has shaped his approach to living life fully despite ongoing health issues.

He discusses in detail his ongoing chronic health problems and how he has managed them and maintained a positive mental attitude throughout.

We discussed in detail his recent surgery and his physical approach pre-surgery as well as post surgery following his liver transplant.
