Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Let's be honest — most parents stop talking about sex long before they stop missing it. Somewhere between kids, careers, exhaustion, and survival mode, desire fades into the background. The spark that once felt effortless now feels like work. You love your partner, but you don't feel sexy. You're tired, self-conscious, maybe even resentful. The body you once felt proud of doesn't feel like yours anymore… and when you don't feel desirable, it's hard to want to be desired. In this episode, I'm pulling the curtain back on a conversation most people avoid — how transforming your health reignites confidence, connection, and sexual energy. We'll talk about: 🔥 Why stress, exhaustion, and poor body image kill libido long before hormones do 🔥 How losing body fat and building muscle literally changes your chemistry — from blood flow to hormone sensitivity to nervous system control 🔥 The difference between spontaneous and responsive desire (and why you're not broken if you never "feel in the mood" anymore) 🔥 The unique challenges for both men and women — from low testosterone to estrogen chaos, and how fixing your health often fixes your intimacy 🔥 The real reason couples drift apart — and how taking care of your body can help you fall back in love, with yourself and each other This episode isn't about being a "sex god" or chasing some ideal body image. It's about reclaiming the part of you that feels alive. Because when you're strong, healthy, and confident again — you don't just look different. You move different. You show up differently. You flirt again. You feel magnetic. You can't feel sexy in a body you neglect — and when you start to take care of yourself again, that energy radiates into every part of your life. Your marriage. Your mood. Your motivation. This is an honest, sometimes uncomfortable conversation — but it might be the most important one you've heard in a while. Because sex isn't just physical. It's emotional. It's energetic. And when you start feeling good in your own skin again… everything changes.

Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Let's be honest — alcohol is the one habit most people don't want to look at. It's social. It's relaxing. It's fun. But it's also the reason you keep waking up tired, unmotivated, and stuck in the same cycle every week. In this episode, I'm not here to tell you to quit drinking — I'm here to tell you the truth about it. We'll talk about why alcohol quietly sabotages your fat loss, sleep, energy, and drive… How it blunts your motivation and wrecks your recovery… And how to include it smartly without blowing up your progress. I'll share my own story of using alcohol as an escape when I worked in the corporate world — and what changed everything for me. If you've ever said, "I only drink on weekends," this one's going to hit home. Listen now to learn: 🔥 The real impact of alcohol on fat loss, muscle growth, and motivation 🔥 Why even "moderate" drinking can stall progres 🔥 How to drink smarter without quitting entirely A 30-day challenge that'll completely change your relationship with alcohol
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Do you ever feel like you're constantly getting in your own way? You start strong… then the self-sabotage kicks in. That voice in your head starts whispering — "You've failed again," "You'll never stick to it," "Why bother?" That's your inner critic. And in this episode, we're going to expose it for what it really is — a scared little voice trying to protect you, but keeping you stuck. You'll learn exactly how to retrain that voice into a coach instead of a bully. We'll break down the practical steps to stop self-sabotage, rebuild self-trust, and finally talk to yourself like someone who actually believes in you. If you're ready to get out of your own way — this episode is your turning point.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Most people treat fat loss like a project — something to smash for a few weeks before getting "back to normal." But here's the truth: whatever you do to achieve the result, you'll need to keep doing to keep the result. In this episode, Jase breaks down why short-term thinking is the biggest reason you keep starting over — and how to finally play the long game. You'll learn how to build a lifestyle that lasts, measure progress beyond the scale, and use forgiveness and compassion as tools to stay consistent. If you're tired of quick fixes and ready to make this the last time you ever start again, this one's for you.

The problem is, all he'd done to change that had failed. So earlier this year, he joined BBA's 28 day challenge... his results were instant.

Most people aren't training. They're just exercising — doing random workouts that make them sweaty, tired, and frustrated… but not better. In this episode, Jase breaks down the key difference between exercising (movement with no direction) and training (movement with a purpose). You'll learn why busy parents waste time doing too much "stuff," how to actually make progress with limited time, and how to shift your mindset from calorie-burning to body-building — in the life sense. This one's about more than reps and sets. It's about becoming a person who trains with intention — in the gym, at home, and in life. Because exercise burns calories. But training builds character.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ A few weeks ago, I had $100,000 stolen from my bank account. Yeah — one hundred grand, gone. Ten years ago, I would've fallen apart. But this time, I froze the account, went to the gym, and had dinner with my family. Why? Because reacting emotionally wasn't going to fix it. In this episode, I'm talking about emotional maturity — how to hold your shit together when life blindsides you. Because life won't get easier. You just get stronger. New levels, new devils.

But look at him, you wouldn't know it would you. Yet back in 2024, this guy was your typical hard-working bloke that got bogged down in the corporate slug, whilst his health became worse. He made the decision to join the Better Body Academy at the start of 2025, and right now as he approaches his 50th birthday, he's in the best shape of his life. 10kg down, slinging around barbells like it's nobody's business.

After years of trying all the different diets, all the different fads, she landed in BBA with a mission - to not repeat the same patterns that had kept stuck for so long. Well, in this episode, we invite Jo in to tell the story of how she's lost 9 kg... but how that's not the most important part. This last has become a massive contributor to our community so let's unpack her journey so far.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Everyone wants fast results. The problem? Most people can't stand the boring, repetitive stuff that actually works. In this episode we break down why planning and consistency will always beat chasing shiny new hacks, fad diets, and quick fixes. You'll hear from the Better Body Academy coaches — Dom and Erin on performance training, Carly on juggling fitness with family and business, Troy on the science, and Jase on the nutrition and lifestyle side. The truth is simple: results come from sticking to the basics long enough to let them work. The "boring" actions — hitting your steps, eating protein, lifting weights, repeating the same habits day after day — are exactly what builds the body and life you want. By the end of this episode you'll know why chasing novelty keeps you stuck, how to reframe "boring" as your best friend, and how to put consistency into practice even on the busiest weeks. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and finally make progress, this episode is the wake-up call you need.

In this episode, I'm laying down a hard truth: if you want to change your body, your mindset, and your life, you've got to start doing the things you don't want to do. I'll explain why resistance is actually a green light, not a stop sign — and then I'll run you through 100 quick-fire examples of the little choices people dodge every day that keep them stuck. From skipping check-ins with your coach to choosing Ben & Jerry's over Halo Top, these are the moments that make or break your results. Listen in, get the wake-up call, and start leaning into the hard stuff. Because comfort keeps you the same… discomfort changes everything.

In this episode, I break down exactly what a DEXA scan is, what it actually measures, the benefits, the pitfalls, and when it's worth your money. I'll also share my own recent results — how they compare to my scan seven years ago, what the numbers really mean, and why the bigger picture of health is more important than any single measurement. If you've ever wondered whether a DEXA scan is the "gold standard" for tracking fat loss and muscle gain, or just another expensive gimmick, this episode will give you the clarity you need. Tune in to learn: • What a DEXA scan actually tells you (and what it doesn't) • The upsides and downsides most people don't consider • Why some results can be misleading without context • My personal scan results — and what I've learned from them • Whether it's something you should invest in on your own journey This one's a mix of science, real talk, and personal experience — perfect if you're serious about understanding your body beyond just the bathroom scale.
