The Shaun Herr Show

Weight loss is a big topic. We talk about diet, we talk about exercise, we talk about lifestyle changes and all these (still big) topics that come with it. It can be hard to know when to start. Easy to feel like it's all too overwhelming and confusing and like you don't know what you're doing. In this episode I'm talking with my friend Liam Cowley. He's been a coach for almost 6 years now and worked with a lot of people who felt just like that. During our chat we talk about how to make...

It's time for New Years Resolutions and making things happen. I mean, it's always time for making things happen. But right now you're really thinking about it. In this episode I wanted to give you a way to actually make the things happen that you want to make happen in 2020. And it's not just a simple "eat like this" or "do this exercise" because all that means nothing. At the end of the day, I know you know you need to eat less crap. And I also know you know you need to be more...

In this week's episode I'm chatting with Jim Gale. We worked together for a little while and always had good chats and rants and all that good stuff so we thought "Hey, let's get this on record." Because we see so much online and get so many questions where we basically get pissed off that there's so much misinformation and bullshit out there and want to spread the message of "THIS IS BULLSHIT, HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED." SO. We kicked off talking about The Game Changers which is the latest...

In this week's episode I'm talking with Declan Doyle, an awesome dude who was actually one of my tutors when I first became a personal trainer. We've both been up to a lot since then and one thing Dec has been focusing a lot on is building environments that set you up for success. You might have heard personal trainers and others in the health and fitness industry talk about the obesegenic environment we live in today. Basically, the world is set up to make you fat. Which is part of what...

She's a worldwide sex therapist, tantra practitioner, and certified sex geek. Want to learn how to get over your inhibitions?

In today's episode: I'm the guest! A few weeks back I was a guest on my friend Steve's Break The Chains Find Your Flame podcast. We talked about how simple it really is to get healthy, what my superpower is, and how a quote from Russell Brand plays a key part in my nutrition advice. Sounds a bit weird that last one doesn't it? But it's true! So press play, listen in, and learn some stuff. Let’s get into it. Click here to listen to the podcast on iTunes!Rather watch and listen? Watch this...

In today’s episode I’m interviewing Al Kavadlo - an expert calisthenics practitioner who travels the world teaching others how to build a strong body and do amazing things with it. Just by using their own body - no equipment required! Except for maybe a pull-up bar and the odd gymnastic ring or parallette. I started following Al way back at the start of my health and fitness journey when me and my housemate Nat would watch YouTube videos, learn how to get strong with the minimal equipment...

Today’s episode is Part 3 of a mini-series I’m calling All About Calories. I decided to write this mini-series because I’ve been answering a LOT of questions online recently in Facebook groups helping people understand weight loss a bit better. Most people have the same kinds of questions, frustrations, sticking points, and things they’re confused about because of all the conflicting - and basically incomplete - information they’ve been getting. In a nutshell, what we've learned so far is...

Last week we learned why all weight loss comes down to calorie balance. We looked at what calories are, how are bodies use them, and what happens if we’re consuming too much or too little. This week, we’re going to prove it by breaking down 6 popular diets and showing how every one just boils down to calorie balance and creating a calorie deficit to result in weight loss. This stuff is really easy when you know how. And it’s quite funny to see how every “diet” is basically the same. Even...

I get a lot of questions online from people confused about calories. Are they having enough? Too many? Why aren’t they losing weight when they’re burning so many and eating so little? It can get confusing and I want to clear it up. In these next 3 podcast episodes we’re going to do a mini-series I’m calling All About Calories. Today, we’re looking at what calories actually are and how the principle of calorie balance ACTUALLY and ALWAYS works - even if you think it doesn’t apply to...

Hey hey podcasters welcome to the Shaun Herr Show where we learn how to break the slimming cycle by mastering your Mind, Meals and Movement. Helping you finally achieve a balanced lifestyle and long-lasting results. Today I’m talking with Martin Bone, a meditation teacher here in Liverpool. What I love about Martin is that he’s not your stereotypical meditation teacher. He’s not going around in floaty robes, looking and sounding so chilled out he’s gonna fall over whilst worshiping the sun...

In this episode I’m talking with Georgina Creed. Me and Georgina work in the same gym chain just in different gyms so I saw her pop up in my Instagram a little while ago. I thought she was putting out a lot of really good content that would be good for you guys to hear so I wanted to get her on so we could dig into that stuff and more. As with every podcast interview so far we segued and branched to and from all kinds of different topics. We ask whether you’re really going to be happy if...

In today’s episode I’m talking with Steve Opalenik. Me and Steve met a few years back at a calisthenics course over in New York and so I went into the interview with my little plan thinking that was the main thing we’d talk about. But once we got started we went straight into Steve’s family-run non-profit, the Promethean Project. See Steve is a mental health counsellor, and so our entire conversation was just all about that because I just wanted to know more and more. We talked about SO MUCH...

Social events can be hard when you're trying to lose weight. For many of us they're either hours of politely saying "no" to nice things when we really we want to say "oh my god yes I love cheesecake", or an absolute binge fest. But if you can tweak the way you think about food, and about what you're "allowed" to eat, those events can get a lot easier. This episode is all about your relationship with food, and drink. If this sounds like something you need to work on, that's what the...

You know when you’ve started a new diet, or started going to the gym, and you feel like it’s going well when all of a sudden you realise you haven’t been the gym for 3 weeks and you’re halfway through a tub of Ben & Jerry’s? A lot of the time, this happens because going to the gym or focusing on your diet takes effort. But when things in our lives start to get stressful we take our eye of the ball and fall back into old, less-than-productive habits. A few months back I gave a talk at the...

On today’s episode I’m interviewing my friend Beck who I’ve known since we were in primary school around 8 years old. Since then I’ve gone on to become a personal trainer, she’s gone on to become a yoga teacher, and we’ve both gone on totally different journeys to end up where we are now. We talk about our first ever yoga classes, the questions Beck gets all the time in her classes, how you can benefit from yoga in ways you might not expect and how you can get started practicing yoga...

How often have you heard somebody say it's good to have a balanced diet? Probably quite a few. But do you understand what that actually means? Is at about having enough protein? The right balance of calories? Not too many carbs? Not too much fat? If I were to ask 10 people what a balanced diet is I'd get 10 different answers. Because the world of nutrition is filled with conflicting information and confusion. But it doesn't have to be. For me, balance is about eating enough nutritious...
