Push Pull Health

What does your rotten health attitude struggle with most?

2 Week Trial on the app Ben keeps banging on about
Push Health Health Calorie Calculator
The Psychology of Dieting and a Review of the Film 'One Hour Photo.'
One of the key takeaways from the episode is the complex reality of maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
We discuss how social media can distort our perception of health, promoting unrealistic body standards and overnight transformations that are often not sustainable or healthy.
We emphasize the need to move away from the allure of quick fixes offered by the fitness industry and toward a measured approach that encourages consistent effort over time.
Many of us fall into the trap of rushing through dieting to see quick results, but we highlight that the scale can be misleading. Factors like water retention, menstrual cycles, and muscle gain can affect weight without truly reflecting the changes in our bodies.
We also debunk the myth that weightlifting will automatically lead to bulky muscles, clarifying that 'toning up' is actually about losing body fat to reveal lean muscle.
Through personal stories and practical advice, we provide listeners with strategies to navigate the minefield of eating habits, calorie management, and the challenges of maintaining motivation for exercise.

Ben's got another vest on.
We talk about Conor McGregor's greasy neck.
We discover Fiona's age. SHE OLD!

Howdy,
I'm Ben, the only 'health' coach who allows you to embrace your Rotten attitude toward exercise and nutrition.
I'm asking You to give the middle finger to Your Unrestrictive diet and Half-arsed exercise routine in JUST 30 Days...

How many hangovers were worth the price of admission?

Hello. How 'bout that ride in? I guess that's why they call it Sin City."

Authors Note* This episode was borderline unreleasable as although some of the information on alcohol and its effects on your Health might be useful, Ben's narcissistic rambling about his experiences with booze threatened to sabotage an otherwise fantastic, insightful conversation...
Stick with us...We get good at Episode 100...
I feel Robo Ben has done well with this week's episode summary:
We open up about our evolving relationship with alcohol, reminiscing about our days of youthful revelry and transitioning to a more moderate, reflective consumption.
This personal journey mirrors a broader cultural shift toward moderation, influenced by social media's ever-watchful eye, which often compels us to share rather than truly experience moments.
We then delve into how hangovers often lead to poorer dietary choices. For instance, the story of Fiona's life-saving rotten banana at 4 a.m. exemplifies the bizarre food decisions one might make under the influence.

Furthermore, we discuss how to make smarter drink choices. Choosing lower-calorie versions of your favourite alcoholic beverages can significantly reduce the overall caloric intake of an evening, which is especially beneficial for those watching their weight.
This segment highlights not only the direct effects of alcohol on our Health but also its ability to lead us into other unhealthy habits, such as excessive eating and smoking.

Much of our discussion highlights Ben's disdain for the sober friends who document our less dignified moments, questioning the drive behind capturing nights out we might not remember.

We also ponder the cultural obsession with forgetting nights out, debating why erased memories are sometimes celebrated as great nights.
This leads to a sobering conversation on regular drinking in one's 30s an
