Deep Inside The Hurt Locker with Brad Riddle
Tuesday Jun 21, 2022
Tuesday Jun 21, 2022
Welcome to episode 105 of The You4ia Health Podcast with Brad riddle.
Brad has one of the most impressive fitness resumes I’ve ever seen, with over 17 years of coaching experience including stints at the elite level as well as having completed marathons, iron mans, pretty much anything that requires you to be in the hurt locker, brad has done it. But his fitness resume isn’t the most attractive thing about him…
His dedication and determination to put in the work is inspiring. His mindset and relentless attitude redefines the word impossible when it comes to fitness and life. Brad is the owner of hurt locker gym in Richmond. A facility that aims to rule out the grey areas in life.
I love brads philosophy when it comes to decision making. I will let him elaborate on it more in the show but he aims to simplify decision making by having a black or white approach. You’re either in or your out and I love it!
Many of us hover in the grey area and this can create uneccesary anxiety and worry, Brad aims to help others take control of their health and wellness by simplifying thinsg to black and white!
I think brads experience in the industry and ability to connect on a depper level helps him navigate throught he grey area and provide people with whatever support they need to help them get to where they want and need to be.
Brad and I take a deep dive into why the fitness industry is unfit in many ways and how you can stand out as a personal trainer/ gym owner by following a simple plan.
We discuss the role that connection, networking and relationship building play in the industry and just how you can bulletproof your mindset to get the job done.
The recipe is simple, put in the work, reap the rewards.

Tuesday Oct 26, 2021
Welcome to episode 97 of The You4ia Health Podcast with Shannah Kennedy.
This week on the show Shannah and I dissect the past 18 months, in particular what life is like for us Melbournians enduring almost a full year of lockdown. We chat at length about the things she is seeing with her patients with the compounding fatigue we have all been experiencing, and we chat at length about how to navigate around our new covid normal life.
Shannah also takes us through ways we can start to celebreate small wins along the way. This alone allows us to seek fulfilment through the most minuscule of tasks and give us a sense of accomplishment. This alone fills our cup and keeps the fire burning towards our big audacious goals.
