Have you ever wondered why you seem to just instinctively prefer one lift over another, or why your bench press seems to improve so much more easily than your deadlift? Or even why some lifts seem to hurt, no matter how much you warm up, while others feel great.

Well, this interview will answer your questions. Lee Boyce, one of the fitness industry's most respected voices, explains how understanding your body’s proportions – things like height and limb length – can revolutionise your training, minimising your pain and maximising your gains.

With a career including almost 20 years of gym floor experience, and as the co-author of the leading text on the subject of anthropometry, Boyce has not only transformed countless lives through his coaching but has also significantly impacted the industry through his prolific writing and educational endeavours.

Boyce's approach to individualised training is a testament to both the depth of his knowledge and his practical experience. In a world dominated by one-size-fits-all solutions and cookie-cutter programmes, Boyce emphasises the importance of tailored training programmes that account for the unique needs and goals of each client. He shares insights into how he assesses clients and designs personalised plans that not only enhance performance but also prevent injuries and promote long-term health.

A significant part of Boyce's unique expertise lies in anthropometry: the study of human body measurements. He co-authored the leading reference book "Strength Training for All Body Types: The Science of Lifting and Levers", which explains how understanding individual body proportions can optimise training. This book has been hailed as a game-changer in the fitness industry, providing a comprehensive guide to tailoring exercises based on one's unique body structure.

From his days as a university-level sprinter and long jumper to becoming a leading member of the fitness industry, Boyce’s story is one of passion, dedication, and an unwavering commitment to excellence. He reflects on how he’s improved his approach with clients over the years, and on how a major injury actually helped him become a better coach.

Outside academia Boyce has been published over 1300 times in leading fitness and lifestyle publications, including for example Men's Health, T-Nation and The Wall Street Journal. He credits this ability to translate complex and often esoteric concepts into digestible and actionable advice as one of the main reasons he’s had such success as a trainer.

Boyce’s role as an educator extends beyond his writing. As a part-time professor at Humber College, he challenges students to think critically and prevents them from making many of the most common mistakes those new to the fitness industry often make. Boyce also addresses what he believes makes a great personal trainer, offering his perspective on the essential qualities and skills that distinguish exceptional trainers from the rest. His insights are invaluable for anyone aspiring to excel in the fitness industry.

Do you want to be ready to overcome any challenge, anywhere and at any time? Then you need to listen to Josh Bryant, the legendary strength coach and bestselling author of more than 30 books on every aspect of strength, training and optimal performance. Whether you're a seasoned athlete or just starting your fitness journey, Bryant has advice that will change the way you train for the better.

Bryant breaks down the #GasStationReady (and related #WaffleHouseReady) concept in detail – a philosophy that emphasises being ready to handle any challenge life throws your way. Sometimes - in some situations - just having the look is enough to meet the challenge, but this concept goes far beyond simply looking a certain way.

It's about functional strength, endurance and resilience. Imagine being able to lift heavy, run fast, and maintain performance for long periods of time, making you confident in tackling any physical task at a moment's notice, even when you're at the gas station or in a restaurant.

Bryant's approach blends his academic theoretical knowledge with decades of "in the trenches" experience with some of the strongest and most impressive athletes on the planet. His methods have also been forged and tested in many of the toughest, most unforgiving environments like maximum security prisons and the famous Metroflex gym in Texas, home of bodybuilding legends like Ronnie Coleman and Branch Warren.

As an athlete himself - he won the Strongest Man in America competition and became the youngest person to bench press 600lbs (273kg or 6 plates a side) raw - Bryant knows the importance of real-world applicability. What is perhaps even more impressive is his record as a coach: he has guided more than twenty athletes to hit this herculean bench press milestone. His Jailhouse Strong methods are also famously adaptable, and have transformed the lives of countless individuals by helping them achieve functional strength and mental toughness.

But prodigious strength is not enough for Bryant; the ultimate state of physical preparedness requires a significant conditioning element too. One piece of this puzzle can be addressed by rucking, which recently seems to have exploded in popularity. Bryant also – quite literally – wrote the book on rucking years before it became mainstream, and was the key figure in popularising it outside military circles.

At the other end of the intensity spectrum we find sprints, another thing Bryant knows a thing or two about. If you're looking to boost your explosive power and cardiovascular fitness, hill sprints are a game-changer. Learn how to use sprints safely to supercharge your overall athletic performance with his step-by-step guide on how to incorporate them into your training programme.

Whether you're aiming to enhance your athletic performance, build a resilient body, or simply stay fit and healthy, don't miss our exclusive Unfiltered conversation from one of the greatest strength coaches on the planet.

We are living in a time of revolution. We’ve seen the enormous impact of the AI revolution with Large Language Models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, and also the weight loss revolution with GLP-1 agonists like Semaglutide and related obesity drugs. Next in line is the longevity revolution.

At the forefront of this coming revolution we find Dr Gil Blander, a man who as founder and chief scientific officer of InsideTracker has been working on expediting this revolution since 2009, far before it became mainstream. In this fascinating and insightful interview we hear about cutting edge developments in personalised health like HealthGPT, the profound implications of nascent anti-ageing breakthroughs, and how they’ll fuel the upcoming longevity revolution.

InsideTracker analyses users’ blood biomarkers, DNA, and lifestyle data to create tailored health plans, ultimately leading to the development of revolutionary HealthGPT technology. The benefits of using Inside Tracker are clear: users report significant improvements in key health metrics such as glucose levels, cholesterol, and inflammation markers, translating directly into better physical performance and overall wellbeing.

These insights are only improving as more data is collected; this data (access to large amounts of data is fundamental to the success of machine learning) can then be leveraged to provide the most impactful information to inform the user.

This, combined with incorporating the latest and most reliable information from experts in fields such as biology, nutrition, exercise physiology, and computer science means Inside Tracker represents the tip of the spear in this revolution. Just to give you an idea of the scale involved here, Inside Tracker has already curated over 7000 clinical studies and more than 10 billion (yes, billion) data points – a combination which has so far helped over 100,000 users.

In our exclusive Unfiltered interview Dr Blander reveals the broader implications of anti-ageing research, how it relates to other developments, and how it can help you not only live for longer (lifespan), but also remain healthier and delay the onset of so called ‘diseases of ageing’ (healthspan).

As Dr Blander details, we now have access to technology and insights that only a few years ago would have been consigned to the realms of science fiction. So the question we all must now ask ourselves is not whether a revolution is coming, but whether you want to be a part of it.
