There's often a back on forth on whether artificial sweetners are bad for you and if they pose more benefits than risks to everyone, or more specifically to individuals who maybe overweight. As diet drinks may go a long way to helping them reduce caloric intake and lose body fat.

Let's Neuroplasticity especially in kids, it's the remarkable ability of the brain to reorganize and adapt, plays a crucial role in the development of children. During childhood, the brain undergoes rapid changes and is highly responsive to the environment and experiences. Neuroplasticity allows the brain to form and strengthen neural connections based on these experiences. It enables children to learn new skills, acquire knowledge, and develop cognitive, emotional, and social capacities. Through exposure to stimulating environments, enriched learning experiences, and positive relationships, children's brains can create new neural pathways and enhance their overall cognitive abilities. This plasticity highlights the importance of providing children with a nurturing and stimulating environment that fosters their curiosity, creativity, and intellectual growth, ultimately shaping their future potential and well-being.

For a long time it's been the thinking that high carb diets are adventagous for performance especially endurance races with people taking on carb formulas during long distance race for example.
There does seem to be a few studies that are starting to challenge this & even show health benefits, now while we don't think you should ditch the carbs it certainly is challenging the current beliefs avout human performance, fueling and adaptions that can be made while performing exercise while on a Low carb high fat diet.
We're joined by Nutritionist, Supplement brand creator & brand new author Ben Coomber!
Ben is a good friend of ours and some what of a pioneer in health & fitness, especially in the podcast game.

Hey guys! It's frustrating when I see people starting off with great intentions but due to poor execution, lack of knowledge or the wrong mind set they fall short of their goals.
Now as we talk about in this podcast you don't actually fail until you quit but if we can nail these endeavours first try I think we'd all be pretty happy!
So let's jump into way in which you can really break through & finally capture your goals big or small.
With so many people now partaking in cold water therapy it's only natural that new protocols will emerge in a bid to increase the benefits & we will discuss some of these today.
We also discuss the constant need for progression and is it really healthy to be doing all these things we see on social media, you know the "wake up at 4am" "the grind" etc
We also touch on some points from teh fantastic Andrew Huberman podcast and we encourage you to go listen to the lastest episode.

Tunnel vision, that’s exactly what I’m using going into another lockdown.
I learnt a lot from the last lock down & this time I’m having tunnel vision, focusing only on the stuff I can control & keeping more of the stuff I can’t out of my sight.
I only need news updates anytime there’s change I need to know about, otherwise I don’t need that negative repetition in my life.
I know a lot of people have & are struggling with anxiety atm, anxiety is largely future based & often people feel fearful of what’s to come.
Well to me the news ain’t helping here, it just seems to speculate over every potential negative situation, creating a new plot line of fear for our clever minds to make a movie out of..... You know like the one you make up before most flights you get on, but it never actually happens.
Now of course this is a serious situation I’m not playing that down at all I’m just saying I don’t need to be reminded of it every min of every day, and if it’s all starting to get to you then maybe seeing/hearing less is a good option.
What's the coolest job you can think of? Well we think our guest Sam has the coolest job we can think of, he's a wildlife photographer. Like David Attenborough kind of work!
He's also lost a ton of weight & on his journey he's navigated embracing a vegan diet and he's often living in a tent for weeks on end in the middle of papa new guinea.
This can make training and eating a challenge, we also talk the best way to build strength for Sam.

To say his boxing career was smooth however is anything but the case. From almost losing his mum during the Olympics to more injuries than you can count.

We're 2 weeks into isolation here in the UK and many of us are still working out how to best deal with & work around this situation.
We're going to share with you our thoughts and coping strategies to make sure you're feeling good during isolation.
It's a challenging time for all of us, so what do we need to do to stop ourselves feeling down or isolated from our friends and hobbies?
Ok you asked the questions and we answered everything from calories, energy systems to injuries, Oh and of course our usual tangents and of topic rambles.
So much has changed for us over the past year with the birth of our kids & we have had to make changes to EVERY aspect of our lives, from exercise to social life, to work & more.
Here's what we've learnt!
The human mind is a funny things especially when faced with crisis or something that question one of our primary needs or motivations like shelter, income and safety.
They way react to these situations often makes me wonder how much of this reaction is primal and more of an animalistic response.
It certainly feels like the media is making it out that Mo Farah is hiding something because apparently he forgot to mention that he was taking a perfectly allowed & readily used supplement in L-carnitine.
It seem almost everyone not just gym goers & athletes are wanting to change their bodies and build more muscle for performance, aesthetics, confidence and more.
So what do we really know about building muscle and what' the bet way to do so?
Look our circumstances, life and general routine change & we have to adapt our training and health around that.
It may feel like we're taking a step back or not completing our goals but in fact it's important to change and adapt goals if they are no longer suiting you.
What is healthy? It's far more than just physical health and we feel the World Health Organizations 1986 description of health or out dated for our current lifestyles when you take into account how much it's change in the last 30-40 years.
What does it take to be a professional athlete? We're joined by our good friend and Crossfit athlete Zack George fresh off the back of competing at Strength In Depth competition in London this weekend.
I used to be so focused on being below 10% body fat and if i'm being honest there was no reason for that other than my own insecurities.
Not to say having a body fat percentage goal is not relevant or a good goal it may however be better suited to some more than others.
In this podcast we're discussing different methods of BF testing, their pros and cons as well as do we need to know our BF%
Leon is back from a month away in New Zealand, as well as a catch up we're talking about why it's important to find your reason why for being fit and healthy, for exercising and well for anything of importance to you.
It's a sprawling subject charged with emotion and sometimes agenda, it's also very confusing & often hard to get a point of view or opinion you trust.
This is by no means a subject that i'm decided on or finished with, i'm still exploring & now I need to encompass what is the right choice for my family both ethically and nutritionally.
I hope you find this episode helpful and can take away some points for yourself.
Don't fall for the "secret to my abs" or "Secrets to my gains" the fact is you probably already know their secrets and if not you can get them without paying for it.
So many of us feel guilty after over eating/drinking or not exercises during Christmas. To me this is madness this time of the year is to be enjoyed, one day of eating is not going to ruin your diet or training.
