EP.33 Do We Need New Year Goals?

The Health Huns ·

2026/01/09

Fresh calendars don’t change lives—clear systems do. We kick off 2026 by swapping pressure-heavy resolutions for grounded routines, starting with two big levers: self-awareness and intentional time. From keeping workouts short and consistent to choosing creation over consumption, this conversation gets practical about how to make progress feel doable, even when life is busy and winter gets in the way.We unpack our “ins and outs” for the year with zero fluff. Ins: being honest about what you want,

EP.32 Snog, Marry, Avoid Fitness Influencer Edition

The Health Huns ·

2025/12/19

What happens when you judge fitness influencers by who you’d snog, who you’d marry, and who you’d avoid? A lot of laughs—and a surprisingly sharp filter for cutting through hype. We put big names on the playful hot seat and unpack what their content reveals about the industry: the stale comfort of “calorie deficit” clichés, the rise of aisle-filming icks, and the strange pull of carnivore stunt-eating that makes butter a co-star.We also spotlight the creators we’d happily commit to: the evidence-led

EP.31 Navigating The Festivities

The Health Huns ·

2025/12/16

December doesn’t just bring twinkly lights; it brings the “super flu,” bulging calendars, and snack tables that call your name. We share a realistic, compassionate game plan for staying well through illness, navigating peak‑work weeks, and enjoying festive food without slipping into all‑or‑nothing mode. If you’ve ever felt guilty for resting or worried that a week off would erase your gains, this conversation will help you reframe rest as a strategic tool, not a setback.We start with the big

Ep.30 Top 10 Fitness Trends we Love and Loathe

The Health Huns ·

2025/12/16

One day Rhi will get the episode number right Trend cycles promise transformation, but not all of them care about your health. We dig into the last decade of fitness with a clear lens: what actually helps you feel strong, sane, and supported—and what’s just discipline theatre for the algorithm. From the 5am club and 75 Hard to carnivore feeds served on chopping boards, we unpack the hustle aesthetics that burn people out and sell shame as self‑improvement. We also get honest about SkinnyTok’s return

EP.29 Weight-loss and identity shifts

The Health Huns ·

2025/11/28

@joshuahillsnutrition @michaelulloapt We pull apart the glossy myths of weight loss and talk about identity, confidence, and the way the world treats you when your body changes. Training wins, colder mornings, hair shedding, and loose skin sit alongside practical tools for sustainable habits and gentler self-talk. • shoutout to Shannon and invite for DMs • Amber’s 10k plan and strength PBs • injuries, cold weather pain and recovery • weight loss versus identity and confidence • pretty privil...

EP.28 Fitness and the patriarchy

The Health Huns ·

2025/11/21

Ever walked into a gym and felt the room decide whether you belong there? We start with the everyday stuff — cold runs, reluctant 10k sign-ups, the bravery of showing up alone — and then pull the camera back to show the bigger picture shaping those moments. Patriarchy still sets the tone in too many fitness spaces, from the stare you pretend not to notice to the route you won’t run after dark. That quiet vigilance isn’t paranoia; it’s a tax on focus, joy and consistency. We talk about how sa...

EP.27 Is it ok to have 'body goals'?

The Health Huns ·

2025/11/14

What if the most important progress you make never shows up on a scale? We open the door to a frank, funny, and nuanced conversation about body goals, identity, and the everyday wins that actually change how life feels. From airplane seatbelts and clothing fit to TRX rows and clearer skin, we map the victories that prove health is bigger than a number. We share lived experiences of weight loss that improved pain, energy, and confidence, without pretending the world treats every body the same...

EP.26 How to level up your gym game and confidence

The Health Huns ·

2025/11/07

Think everyone at the gym knows exactly what they’re doing? Here’s a secret: most people are focused on themselves, often unsure about their own form. We dig into how to turn that insight into confidence, so you can train harder, smarter, and actually enjoy getting stronger without letting fitness take over your life. We start by breaking the “permanent beginner” mindset and move into clear, doable progressions: swapping lunges for split squats, testing assisted pull-ups after lat pulldowns,...

The Health Huns ·

2025/10/31

What if the scariest thing in fitness isn’t a burpee, but a panel of blokes explaining the menstrual cycle? Our Halloween special turns the gym into a haunted house and tours every room you secretly dread: MLM pitches at the door, sleds blocking every path, “high protein, low calorie” echoing like a curse, and denim-clad grunters who treat the rack like a stage. We laugh, we roast, but we also get honest about boundaries, ethics, and how to create a gym culture that actually feels good. Alon...

Ep.24 Our Top 10 Health and Fitness Icks!

The Health Huns ·

2025/10/23

If the weights floor has ever felt like a stage for the loudest person in the room, you’re not alone. We’re digging into the fitness “icks” that drain motivation and shut people out—from theatrical grunts and plate slamming to smug couples coaching each other badly and copycat content that mistakes clicks for care. We talk honestly about what sustainable training looks like when sleep is a mess and energy is low: gentle rest days, mobility, slower runs, intervals when they help, and strength...

Ep.22 Self-Sabotage and How To Overcome It

The Health Huns ·

2025/10/13

Ever feel like you’re the one standing between you and your goals? We break down self-sabotage with unflinching honesty and a lot of practical warmth—why we set giant, glittering plans we can’t sustain, how “start on Monday” thinking keeps us looping, and what actually works when life is busy and motivation is low. From skipped summer runs to snack-only days and overstuffed to-do lists, we trace the real patterns that derail progress and show how to make change so small it finally sticks. We...

Ep.21 HYROX

The Health Huns ·

2025/10/10

We dig into what makes a fitness community feel genuinely welcoming, where glossy events set hidden barriers, and how to build spaces that fit real lives rather than perfect images. Respect for HIROX, Ironman, and elite clubs stands alongside a call for clearer labels, lower barriers, and more honest inclusion. • Gay to 5K as a blueprint for practical inclusion • the gap between “inclusive” marketing and actual access • HIROX identity, travel, training time and cost barriers • Ironman expens...

Ep.20 Listener Q&A #2

The Health Huns ·

2025/10/06

A 20th‑episode milestone deserves a little chaos, so we opened the floor to your questions and went wherever they led—no fluff, no shame, just real talk. From normalising leaks during workouts to the eternal “Do I really need 150g of protein?” debate, we dig into what actually moves the needle for health: a supportive community, smarter training, and food that makes you feel good without turning eating into homework. We share what the past year taught us—why running slower can be the fastest...

Ep.19 Supplements

The Health Huns ·

2025/10/02

Hype sells. Health doesn’t need to. We invited the supplement aisle into the light and asked the only questions that matter: does it work, is it safe, and is there a simpler way to get the same benefit? Between gym stories, a fresh rowing PB, and a big 2026 fitness goal, we break down what everyday people actually need—and what’s just expensive hope. We start with the confusion: influencers, sleek labels, and bold claims make powders feel essential. Then we separate signals from noise. Magne...

EP.18 The Messy Truth About Consistency

The Health Huns ·

2025/09/25

Consistency - that magical buzzword thrown around in fitness circles as the ultimate solution to all our health and wellness struggles. But what exactly does consistency mean, and is it truly the golden ticket we're led to believe? In this refreshingly honest conversation, we challenge the toxic narratives surrounding consistency in the fitness world. From the pressure to maintain perfect workout schedules to the shame that comes with missing a session, we explore how these expectations ofte...

Ep.17 The Mysterious World of Women’s Health

The Health Huns ·

2025/09/18

Every woman knows the feeling—sitting in a doctor's office, describing debilitating symptoms, only to be dismissed with "try losing weight" or "it's just hormones." This isn't just frustrating; it's dangerous. We're pulling back the curtain on the systemic problems in women's healthcare, exploring conditions like PCOS, endometriosis, and perimenopause that affect millions yet remain chronically under-researched and misunderstood. Did you know it takes an average of 7-8 YEARS to receive an en...

Ep.15 Fat Kid Trauma, Boxwave, and PE nightmares

The Health Huns ·

2025/09/04

Remember lining up in the school hall to be weighed in front of everyone? Or being forced to wear those ridiculous PE knickers while attempting gymnastics? The humiliation of childhood PE classes is something many of us carry well into adulthood—often manifesting as a complicated relationship with exercise and our bodies. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, we unpack what it truly means to grow up as "the fat kid" and how these formative experiences shape our relationship with fitness for ...

Running a 10K doesn't have to be a high-pressure experience. Our candid conversation about Run Norwich preparation reveals the laid-back yet effective approach two everyday runners are taking toward this popular city event. We dive into our training strategies – from multiple weekly runs and strength training to the dreaded hill work.
