Training And Ageing: How And Why Exercising Fights Ageing

Thu, 06 Mar 2025 00:00:00 +1000

Chronological age is how many birthdays you've had.
Biological age is how well your body actually functions.

Regular strength training, mobility work, and proper recovery can keep your muscles, joints, and cardiovascular system younger than your birth certificate says.

On this episode, we talk about the impacts of training on ageing (and ageing on training).

Studies show resistance training improves muscle mass, bone density, and metabolic health—key factors in slowing biological ageing. So whether you're 30 or 60, the best time to start was yesterday. The second-best time? Today. 💪

How To Recover Better: Do Ice Baths And Massage Guns Actually Work?

Wed, 23 Aug 2023 03:00:00 +1000

Training breaks down your muscles. It's the recovery process that rebuilds them even stronger. Your body needs time to repair, to refuel, and to recharge. If you're constantly pushing without giving yourself the chance to recover, you're setting yourself up for burnout, injuries, and ultimately, setbacks.

Recovery isn't a sign of weakness; it's a sign of intelligence. It's about working smarter, not just harder. And recovering hard means embracing it with the same dedication and focus you bring to your workouts. It means getting quality sleep, nourishing your body with proper nutrition, and finding ways to manage stress.

You're not cutting corners by taking a rest day or practicing active recovery. You're investing in your long-term progress. Just as a car can't run on an empty tank, you can't perform at your best if you're running on fumes.

Plateaus In Training: What Causes Them And What You Can Do To Avoid Them

Wed, 07 Jun 2023 03:00:00 +1000

A fitness plateau refers to a period during a fitness journey when an individual experiences a lack of progress or improvement in their strength, endurance, or overall fitness levels.

It's a point where the body adapts to the current level of exercise and fails to make further advancements despite consistent effort.

Fitness plateaus can be frustrating and demotivating, as individuals may feel like they are not making progress. But there are not only ways to overcome plateaus in your training, but also avoid getting them - and knowing if you really are plateauing.

Words And Phrases We Don't Use: How Language Creates Realities

Wed, 29 Mar 2023 03:00:00 +1000

In the world of health and wellness, the words we use can have a powerful impact on our thoughts, beliefs, and actions. This is because words have the ability to create reality, both positive and negative. When we use positive language and focus on what we want to achieve, we are more likely to take actions that align with our goals and see positive results. On the other hand, using negative language or focusing on what we don't want can create limiting beliefs and hinder our progress.

For this reason, at Rebuild Health and Fitness, we are mindful of the language we use when working with our clients. We avoid using negative or restrictive language that can create feelings of shame, guilt, or inadequacy. Instead, we focus on empowering language that encourages positive action and reinforces our clients' strengths and capabilities.

Overtraining: How To Know You’re Doing It, What It Feels Like And The Effects It Has On Your Life

Tue, 22 Mar 2022 03:00:00 +1000

What is overtraining?

Training has myriad benefits and helps you get stronger, fitter, faster and basically makes you harder to kill. But what happens when you train too much? Your body stops functioning like it should.

Exercise has a “dose-response relationship,” meaning the more you work out, the better your performance will be - to a point.

When you reach a certain point, that is - overtraining, you’re doing your body harm, and you’re not getting the normal benefits of exercise.

Learn how you can identify if you’re overtraining, how it feels and how to combat it.

Tue, 19 Oct 2021 03:00:00 +1000

Do we all have the same 24 hours in a day?

Everyone considers themselves quite busy. It's often an excuse we have heard on repeat over the years; we're 'too busy' or ‘I didn’t have time’

This week on the podcast, Sean and James talk about the methods for success for integrating training or exercise into your week and how you can benefit from it.

Are you a priority right now? Or are are you losing the fight for self care?

Damage Limitation. If You Can't Make It Better, Can We Make It A Little Less Worse?

Tue, 28 Sep 2021 03:00:00 +1000

There's no such thing as a perfect day, week, month.

Every day something is going to pop up to disrupt your health goals, and as we edge towards silly season, events are going to be even more common.

So when you're presented with unavoidable issues, how do you limit the damage - how do you make the bad a little less worse?

It sounds funny, but it's a phrase we preach often at Rebuild. Don't go without, don't lose balance in your life, but try for little wins, better habits and better choices.

Make choices that are a little less damaging to your overall goals.

This podcast will give you advice on how to do that at birthday parties, restaurants, outings and social occasions and help you reframe your mindset.

Tue, 21 Sep 2021 03:00:00 +1000

He broke the world record for the longest plank with a staggering nine hours, 30 minutes and one second, all while living with a chronic pain disorder.

Imagine having a lighter, held up to your arm constantly, with the flames licking your skin for days.

That’s the feeling that Daniel Scali experiences through his chronic regional pain syndrome (which he was diagnosed with after breaking his arm at 12 years old) and it's a disorder that he battles with daily.

It's also what drove him to break the Guinness World Record for longest time doing a plank.

On this week’s episode, we speak to Daniel about the realities of living with CRPS for the past 16 years, how he overcame it to break a world record and how he prepared for this huge achievement.

Matt was well on track, as he surpassed 220kg, the record is 242.5kg.

Can You Out Train A Bad Diet?

Tue, 07 Sep 2021 03:00:00 +1000

We’ve seen it time and time again, people trying to smash themselves in the gym to compensate for over-doing it on calories.

And it’s not going to get you the results you want.

Training twice a day or thinking that your one hour at the gym daily is going to offset you ingesting hundreds of extra calories is wrong, but there are ways you can limit damage.

The answer is not as simple as ‘no you can’t’ there’s more to this issue than meets the eye.

This week we discuss people who can out train diets (and people who can’t), how you can achieve your goals and why working out twice per day is not the magic solution you might think it is.

The Number One Reason Your Diet Is Failing

Tue, 17 Aug 2021 03:00:00 +1000

If you feel like you're in a perpetual state of dieting and not getting anywhere, there's probably one sole reason why.

As nutritionists, we often see people failing diets and programmes for a single reason: adherence - or lack thereof.

If you're looking to lose or gain weight, or even maintain your current weight, adherence is the key to your success.

This week's podcast, we look at the steps that lead to failure; and how you can counter this, the steps that lead to success.

You don't need a fad, a challenge or a buzzword diet to succeed, you just need to adhere to your goals (and listen to this podcast).

How Being Comfortable Could Be Ruining Your Life

Sun, 30 May 2021 03:00:00 +1000

Discomfort is something we as humans avoid, but it’s where change and growth happens. The problem is, we are always comfortable, and thus, we aren’t being challenged or changing.

This week, Sean and James are joined by coach Darius to talk about discomfort and how we can grow and change through putting ourselves into states of discomfort.

We should be seeking out discomfort, from fitness, to relationships, work and education – discomfort is going to help you evolve and adapt.

We expect everything to be easy and a lot of the time, it is. We can live a life of comfort from our homes – with no need to ever really leave. But if we don’t challenge ourselves, we will never reach our full potential.

Sun, 18 Apr 2021 03:00:00 +1000

If you're skipping out on sleep, you will never make proper progress in your health goals.

We’ve spoken about the importance and benefits of sleep on previous podcasts, and this week we take a deep dive into the true impact lack of sleep can have on your health, eating habits, weight-loss or gain, sex drive and mental function.

Sleep is crucial to your overall health, your mental health, recovery, muscle-growth and nutrition adherence so getting enough shut-eye is one of the best things you can do for your body.

We as humans are the only animals in the world that will abstain from sleep for other activities.

James and Sean touch on how you can improve your sleep quality - measures you can take to ensure that your sleep is high quality, help you drift off to sleep faster and some resources to help you wind down at night.

Mick Stuart. You Are Capable Of More

Sun, 04 Apr 2021 03:00:00 +1000

Mick Stuart at one point, tipped the scales at 150kg - which he attributes to ‘the worst lifestyle ever’. He says he got a wake-up call when his relationship nearly fell apart and he was shopping in the ‘big boys section’ for clothing.

Mick started by walking up a hill by his house - each day, he was walking and running up the hill. He then integrated weights into his routine, and from there, he looked for more. Mick worked every day, and got his weight down to 94kg.

Now, he’s training for an Iron Man (3.9km swim, 180km bike, 42.2km run), regularly participates in ultra-beast (50km) obstacle courses, is a qualified trainer and last year, he did a 24-hour challenge where he did burpees, ran on a treadmill and rode the air-bike all with a blindfold on - for the entire 24 hours. There was no music or distractions, It was all to raise awareness and money for Mates for Mates - that helps people transition out of the Defence Force.

On this week's podcast, we speak to Mick about his journey to health and how he's now helping others.

Is The Balance Of Your Life Leading To Happiness?

Sun, 14 Feb 2021 03:00:00 +1000

This week’s podcast is about finding balance - and what that means to you.

Too often the health industry is perceived as all or nothing - but it’s not that black and white; it’s a spectrum. It’s time to throw away the stereotypes and assumptions of what you ‘should’ be doing.

You don’t have to sacrifice your social life and mental wellbeing, crash diet or forgo the things you love to get results. It’s about ‘restraint - not restriction’.

It’s knowing your priorities/values and working on them - and maintaining a healthy balance.

Things We Have Said, Things We Have Heard And Things We Have Changed Our Mind On. Plus How To Know If You’re Making Progress.

Sun, 07 Feb 2021 03:00:00 +1000

This week Sean and I talk through some of the stupid shit we use to say, stupid stuff we use to believe it and things we have changed our minds on.

We must know that everything is learned, and just how we learn it we can unlearn it or at least change of view of it. That is growth.

“If anyone can refute me—show me I’m making a mistake or looking at things from the wrong perspective—I’ll gladly change. It’s the truth I’m after, and the truth never harmed anyone.” – Marcus Aurelius

Some of the things we have said, blow our minds and this makes for a very interested and fun episode.

We also discuss how to know if you are making progress and the methods you should and shouldn't use when attaching objective and subjective measurements to them.

To know if we are improving, we must understand where we are.

The State Of The Dieting Industry, Challenge Culture & Your Values

Sun, 31 Jan 2021 03:00:00 +1000

This week we dive deep into the state of the dieting industry, challenge culture and the values/worth we attach to ourselves.

We are not against dieting, we have a business for the sole purpose of it, but we do beleive the fact that people shouldn’t be living trying to diet year after year.

But what causes us to think this way? What causes us to live in a state of yo-yo dieting, challenge culture or looking for the next best thing to control our weight?

Why do people want to diet in the first place? Is this something they want or it is something they believe they should?

If so why?

Enjoy the episode, this is a cracker and we hope by the end of it you’re at least thinking differently about ‘dieting.

Justin Bennetts, The Journey Of Brazilian Jujitsu Black Belt.

Sun, 10 Jan 2021 03:00:00 +1000

This week James was very fortunate to be joined by Justin Bennetts a Brazilian Jujitsu Black Belt and owner of The Agoge Brazilian Jujitsu in Bulimba.

To become a black belt in BJJ you need to dedicate on average over 10 years to the craft, and even if you do dedicate a decade it does not mean you will be a black belt.

There are not many BJJ black belts on this planet and I think how special and rare it is when looking from the outside is very overlooked.

We talk through Justin's journey to black belt, the importance of the lessons BJJ teaches and why he quit his job as an electrical engineer to become a business owner and follow his passion of teaching BJJ.

Brazilian jujitsu can teach you everything you need to know about life and it something I have found love for myself.

You are never too old to try this art. Everyone is capable to give it a go regardless of experience, regardless of physicality, regardless of your past.

If you are a parent and are unsure what sport to start your kids in, here could be the answer.

Enjoy this episode and thank you Justin for your time.

- What is motivation and does it exist?
- Self Control vs Discipline
- First steps to any success
- Methods for achievement
- Being true to your word
- Contentment
- How to face the world when it's fighting back.

Super happy we had Brad on for a great conversation about how to achieve your goals however big and small.

Should you buy a gym because you love fitness?
Should you become a PT because you love training?
Should you buy a gym or build a gym?

Parenthood, Priorities, Health & Fitness

Sun, 16 Aug 2020 03:00:00 +1000

This week the boys talk about parenthood and health.

Under no circumstance are we experts on the mater, but we are both dads and we own two businesses where 90% of our members are parents. So we feel this is a topic that needs to be spoken about.

We talk about priorities, influence, support, time, and much more.

Even if you are not a parent we talk about priorities when other things come into your life, be that work, animals, relationships.

Being a parent is tough, but being mentally and physically fatigued is much tougher, so how do we look after ourselves first?

Nutrition, Diet Culture And Whether You Should Diet In The First Place

Sun, 26 Jul 2020 03:00:00 +1000

This week the boys have a brilliant conversation about nutrition, diet culture, and if you should even diet in the first place.

People live in a perpetual state dieting, maybe it's time to stop or at least stop and think differently.

Do you even want to diet? or is society telling you that you should be?

Brilliant conversation, which we believe could help all listeners think differently about the way they view nutrition and dieting.

A couple of swear words in this one as the boys get heated.

Enjoy.

Mistakes we see in the gym

Sun, 19 Jul 2020 06:00:00 +1000

Today the boys have a general conversation about mistakes they see in the gym, from beginner and beyond.

From smashing yourself every day to not recovering to comparison being the thief of joy.

These are the most common mistakes we see and they can all be detrimental to your success.

Enjoy learning, be coachable, and earn the right to lift heavy. If doing 'more' always meant greater progress, people would never leave the gym.
