    Episode Description
    Most people over 40 are overtraining, under-recovering, and following outdated gym advice that ruins their progress. In this episode, I break down why grinding out 15+ sets to absolute failure is slowing down your gains, and why dropping volume, training shy of failure, and focusing on mechanical tension is the smartest way to build muscle and optimise recovery as you get older.

    Why Your All or Nothing Mindset Is Killing Your Health

    2026-09-10 | 49 mins.
    In this episode I sit down with mental health consultant and mind coach Anthony Hartcher to talk about the all or nothing mindset and why it's quietly wrecking so many people's health.
    We get into why our brains default to black and white thinking, how emotions drive behaviour more than we realise, and a simple tool you can use to stop reacting and start responding, especially in relationships and hard conversations.
    Anthony also opens up about a major turning point in his own life, and what it taught him about letting go of labels and identities that no longer serve him. If you've ever felt stuck between all in or all off with your health, your work, or your relationships, this one's for you.
