My guest in this episode is Carrianne Dukes, returning to the channel to reverse roles and ask me questions on all things health and fitness.

This light hearted and honest discussion provides answers and solutions to a range of topics, requested by Carrianne, from body weight reduction and navigating the inevitable plateau in exercise, to battling low moods or addictions.

During the Q and A, you may here something that resonates with you personally or even a work colleague, family member or friend.

With this in mind, perhaps you could reflect on past decisions or choices that have negatively effected your health and what you could do to either reduce or even completely reverse the aforementioned decisions.

As a professional trainer I've witnessed a multitude of scenarios that can lead to poor or sub standard physical and mental health, after thousands of appointments over the past 17 years, since qualifying in sports massage therapy and personal training.

Some of my experiences and answers may seem too simple or 'easy' and not exotic enough compared to the deluge of internet sensations / flavor of the month solutions, available on various platforms, however my mantra remains.....do the simple things, consistently folks.

My thanks goes out to Carrianne for joining me and taking time out from her busy work / life schedule, of which I'm grateful for.

In this short episode, I send out a reminder to stop procrastinating, when it comes to starting your health improvements.

Mid February and we still see and hear of a work colleague, friend, family member or neighbor claiming to start getting fit......next month....

This is the norm for the majority of people who habitually avoid the mild or moderate discomfort of starting their weight loss or body fat reduction plan.

Often the reasons to delay exercising and improving nutritional intake range from the winter weather and post Christmas blues to 'my friends won't exercise with me' or I'm waiting for my beach holiday in July to start losing weight'.

Our physical health is without question the most important thing in life, as without it, we are venerable to a multitude of illnesses, injury, emotional distress and in some cases, social exclusion.

This episode may seem abrupt, harsh or jarring, but it's coming from a place of care, experience and professional practice.

Folks, don't delay your health kick, start today - not tomorrow.
