The Fad Lads

This month Chris & Dok battle on with health & wellness challenges. Chris puts himself up to a circuit training program to try and get his summer Dad bod, whilst Dok tries to walk 10,000 steps a day to see if it is a massive hassle or total pleasure. Both very much physical challenges.....
Our guest this month is london based Johannah Hogg. Jo is taking a huge leap into the unknown this month with a mental (and hopefully spiritual) challenge of talking to someone different that she doesn't know...every day... for a month.... whether it is at a bus stop, in a park or on a bus.
Listen to this episode to find out why and how she is going to do this. It's a good 'un.

Catch up with Chris & Dok as they discuss how Chris using the MyFitnessPal app went and Dok not having an alarm affected his work (Spoiler: He didn't get fired.)
We talk about the positive effects of getting a good nights sleep and the equally positive effects of just being a be more aware of what you eat.
We are taking these challenges because we want to see how different lifestyles and 'fads' can affect our mental and physical well being. Please don't blame us if you miss work because you didn't set an alarm. It's also important to state that when we talk about weight and calories it is a personal decision that we are making and not preaching about weight loss or diet.

This month we are switching it up a little. We are taking a break from having a guest challenge and just having a broader chat about where we are now that we are hitting the fourth month as well a having some general talk about heart rate training, overall wellness and what we have learnt so far.
The challenges this month are good ones though.... Chris does some calorie counting with the help of the app MyFitnessPal to try and chip away at his Dad Bod whilst Dok has to say goodbye to his night owl ways and spend a whole month sleeping without an alarm.... If you think that's easy just bear in mind the he has a job that sometimes starts very early...

@AmberTozer joins Chris & Dok 'live' in Amber's spare room at her apartment in West Hollywood. The chat i since and easy as we go through our challenges, all of which seem to have had a lovely soothing, therapeutic and beneficial effect on all involved. Dok, if you can believe this, looks even better after a month of no sugar and Chris gives another terrible book review.

Catch up with Chris, Dok & Liamo as we discuss how our month of bendy, thinking scribbling went. It was a pleasant surprise that Chris can touch his toes and Dok finds the advantages of meditation reach beyond home. Liamo phones in to give us a catch up as to the trials of his challenge.
