The Cost of Discipline: Burnout, Body Image & the Hustle Myth (Brian Keane & Anthony Walsh)
This was one of my favourite podcasts that I've appeared on. It was with my friend Anthony Walsh from his studio in Dublin. We go long here (nearly two hours) and touch on so many different topics. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it. You can follow Anthony's Roadmap Cycling show here: https://open.spotify.com/show/2oCs3N4ahypwzzUrFqgUmC Prefer to watch your podcasts? The full video is on my YouTube channel Brian Keane Fitness ____________________________________________ What happens when the identity that once drove you starts holding you back? In this honest and wide-ranging conversation, Anthony reconnects with Brian Keane—author, speaker, and ultra-endurance coach—to explore the line between discipline and dysfunction. They dive into self-doubt, social pressure, and the reality of rebuilding when your goals shift. Brian shares what a decade in fitness has taught him, how he's reframed his training around purpose, and why foundational movement always wins out over trends. From Ozempic to testosterone, strength periodization to mindset shifts, nothing’s off the table. If you’re feeling stuck, questioning your routine, or just curious about what sustainable growth really looks like—this episode is for you.

My new group program and €50 off for founding members 🤩
It has been a long six months.. but finally my new program is ready.. My team and I have been building out the NEW Keane Edge Program into an third party app over the past few months and I wanted to send a quick email to let you know that there is €50 discount off the program starting Monday week. Similar to my old BKF Online Program, there will be group coaching with me (weekly Q+A's so I can tailor things to you etc).. BUT... We completely revamped it. New training programs.. New recipes that plug directly into your favourite food app.. An app that syncs with your favourite third party apps (my fitness pal, Apple Watch etc).. It's taken a while to do.. But I think you'll agree that it's been worth it.. If you enter code "MAYOFFER" at the checkout, you'll get it for €146. I'm capping it at 50 people as well; so that code will expire once the group is full. If you have any questions, just let me know and I look forward to working together if you decide it's for you.

Tiffany Moon M.D is a mother, wife, entrepreneur, anaesthesiologist, and TV personality. She graduated from medical school at the top of her class at the age of 23 and currently is an Associate Professor of Anaesthesiology. She is also the first-generation Asian American to star on The Real Housewives of Dallas and made headlines for speaking out against racial bullying, which sparked her advocacy for Asian American issues.

Her debut book, JOY PRESCRIPTIONS: How I Learned to Stop Chasing Perfection and Embrace Connection, is available now. Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s great show: · Achievement does not guarantee happiness or fulfilment. · Joy comes from connection, laughter, and being present. · Letting go of obligations can lead to deeper joy. · Comparison can detract from personal growth and happiness. · Therapy is a gradual process that requires patience and investment. · Focusing on the journey allows for richer life experiences. · Relinquishing control can improve relationships and reduce anxiety. · Setting healthy boundaries is essential for well-being. · Self-compassion is crucial in overcoming negative self-talk. · Joy is found in the little moments of life. Setting boundaries is crucial to avoid being taken advantage of. · Learning to say no can be difficult but necessary for self-care. · Finding humour in life can help alleviate stress and connect with others. · Authenticity allows for deeper connections and personal growth. · Perfectionism can hinder personal development and trying new things. · Practicing gratitude shifts the mindset from lack to abundance. · Rest is essential and should not be viewed as a reward. · Daily check-ins with oneself can help maintain boundaries and self-worth. · Connection is more important than perfection in relationships. · It's okay to prioritize joy and laughter in life.

#534: Rehab Fix’s Dr. Grant Elliott on Revolutionizing Back Pain Treatment, How To Fix Sciatica and The Role of Psychology in Back Pain Recovery!
Dr. Elliott (Rehab Fix) is one of the world’s leading experts on sciatica and back pain treatment. With over 930k followers on Instagram and a YouTube channel of over 618k subscribers, his content helps those who are frustrated by outdated advice and unnecessary treatments. He stands out in the world of chiropractic care—not only as the visionary behind the #1 online low-back program but also as the advocate who challenges the notion that you need a doctor to heal your back. As a former competitive athlete, Grant's career was derailed by persistent back pain and ineffective treatment. Determined to find a better way, he turned his struggles into a mission, combining his medical expertise with innovative strategies to challenge the flawed “sick care” system. Today, his program has impacted lives across the globe, demonstrating that your spine is resilient, your body is capable, and recovery is entirely within your reach. Here are some of the things we talked about in today’s show: · The notion that back pain requires medication and rest is false. · Fear of movement can lead to chronic pain and disability. · Gradual exposure to movement is essential for recovery. Perfect posture is not necessary; movement is more important. · Back pain is influenced by multiple factors, including emotional and social aspects. A holistic approach to back pain considers emotional and psychological factors. · Understanding the correlation between stress and physical pain is crucial. · Sciatica is often misunderstood as just leg pain, but it originates from the back. · Stretching a sensitive nerve can worsen sciatica symptoms. · Individualized treatment plans are essential for effective pain management. · There is no one-size-fits-all solution for sciatica; each case is unique. · Movement is vital for spinal health and pain relief. · Pain does not always indicate tissue damage; understanding this can change perceptions. · Back cracking is generally harmless and can be done if it feels good.
