If either, or even both, of these scenarios, sound familiar, then the episode is 100% for you.In Part 1 we’re going to tackle:The very basics of circumference measurementsWhy you should actually track your measurementsThe dos and don'ts of tracking circumference measurementsSome key measurements and ratios for health & longevityFinally how you can track your circumference measurements with ShapeScale!

This week we have a very special episode of the podcast. We had the grand pleasure of welcoming Professor Viren Swami onto the podcast. He is a professor of Social Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University in the UK and Perdana University in Malaysia, with his current area of focus being on body image and how we can promote healthy body image across the population.Although his parents wanted him to study medicine, Viren states that he followed his curiosity about the ‘outside view of ourselves (aka how the way others view us affects our lives) and ended up getting his Ph.D. in Psychology from UCL (University College London) in ‘05.Viren Swami is one of, if not the leading researcher within the field of body image, beauty ideals, and attractiveness. Viren has in the past focused on looking at cross-cultural differences and explored if and why attractiveness may differ between different cultures.However, spanning beyond his field, Professor Viren Swami is one of the top researchers in the world full stop - he is within the top 2% of most scientists globally.
This week on the podcast we were joined by Tom Kiss, CEO & Co-Founder of mindful food journaling app Ate (formally Youate).Tom has an IT consulting background which means that he finds himself more on the user side of things today within Ate, but rather unconventionally it is his background in IT that led him to the world of food journaling.Having always been into sports growing up, Tom tried to stay fit and eat healthy but his job as an IT consultant meant that he was constantly traveling and under a lot of stress. This led to him developing to less than healthy habits as one might, and whilst he didn’t realize their effects at the time the repercussions of these habits started catching up with him after a few years.Tom started to fall out of shape and was still yet to notice until he faced a wake-up call in the form of a panic attack. Having never had one before he ended up driving himself to the hospital, and from that moment on decided to take action.Meeting with a personal trainer he was introduced to food journaling, opening his eyes to two things:His own nutrition wasn’t greatThe existing solutions for food journaling were poor, he was in search of something simple but couldn’t find anything that met his expectationsFrom this came the building of Ate!

What he found was everyone was immersed in their own music, for most we would leave it at that. But Sam realized that they were all augmenting their reality by bringing in additional layers to help motivate themselves throughout the workout.Sam details his next thought: How cool would it be if we could all wear augmented reality glasses? Giving us all the ability to completely change how and where we workout.

Misinformation and data picking interview. Vague references to well known organisations to support the misinformation.

OK, I gave this podcast a chance, but it has become nothing more than a series of advertisements. What happened to the informative episodes of the sort that Charlie did? I'm unsubscribing. Who wants to listen to a podcast that's just a ad?

It seems like every episode is now a long advertisement. I subbed for information, not this.

Fascinating, but frustrating. So much is involved in training and rehabbing the body that it seems as though we need to have a Dr. McGill to work with or we're doomed. What can the average non-athlete just interested in fitness do?

Uneven audio and Person's voice needs some enthusiasm. Some of her sentences were dropping off at the end so that the information was hard to follow.
