    Respect the Distance: An Honest London Marathon Debrief

    21/05/2026 | 29 mins.
    In this week's episode we're breaking down the London Marathon — the good, the tough, and everything in between. We get into why race day didn't go to plan despite a solid prep, how to handle the mental side of a disappointing result, and why sometimes the sport just humbles you.

    We also dive into Sebastian Sarwe's insane sub-2 fueling strategy (115g of carbs per hour - yes, really 👀), the great debate around ballot places and whether people truly respect the marathon distance, and why having a proper off-season might be the most underrated training tool out there.

    Hybrid Training: Mass Vs Miles

    14/05/2026 | 36 mins.
    Mass moves mass. We've all heard it.

    In a strength setting? Largely true. But that same mass you're building to move weight? You've got to carry it over distance.

    Every stride. Higher impact load. Higher oxygen cost. More fatigue.

    The interference effect isn't just conflicting training signals - it's literally the weight you're moving through space.

    Me and Dr Phil went deep. Hunter-gatherer principles, cross-training and why heavier athletes need to slow down progression.

    The REAL Reason You're Not Making Progress - With Dr Phil

    07/05/2026 | 38 mins.
    Most people struggling to fit training in aren't short on time. They're short on focus.
    In this episode I sit down with Dr. Phil from The Progress Theory to talk about how distractible we've all become - and what it's actually costing you beyond just missed sessions.
    We also get into mass moving mass and what heavier hybrid athletes need to consider when training for endurance events. Because the generic marathon plan isn't written for someone carrying serious muscle.

    Marathon Training for Hybrid Athletes: Nutrition, Mindset & Common Pitfalls

    16/04/2026 | 50 mins.
    Most marathon plans treat strength training like an afterthought.
    Most nutrition guides ignore the fact you're also trying to keep weight on a bar.
    This one's different.
    JB sits down with Tom McClure,  OMNIA's Head of Performance Nutrition and a hybrid athlete who actually does this stuff, to go through everything that matters when you're chasing 26.2 miles without watching your strength fall apart.
    Tom pulls back the curtain on his own London Marathon prep -  what's worked, what hasn't, and the honest reality of fuelling hard training blocks when life doesn't slow down for you.
