Nothing is worse for a bodybuilder or athlete than getting injured. Whether it's an acute injury or chronic pain, this can be soul-destroying for anyone who is addicted to training for their sport. But we can't let an injury get us down! And this podcast is really more about the positive mindset that should come with being injured (rather than phys…

One of our most popular episodes of all time was an interview with Vegan Chef / Nutritionist Amy Longard a few years back! So naturally, we thought it was time to bring her back for an even more in-depth conversation about all things meal prep. And we're letting Sarah ask all the questions on this one as she claims to be “completely clueless” and “…

It's been a long time since we've had our good friend (vegan chef / nutritionist) Amy Longard on the podcast! Definitely a good time to have her back though as many of our clients have already given up on their New Year's resolution to "get fit & healthy." And being busy, self-employed moms ourselves, we wanted to share some of our best health tips…

Oh how I hope that none of the guys I've dated in the past listen to my podcast! Nevertheless, on this episode, we are diving into bodily smells yet again! But more specifically, why I always seem to detect this strong, pungent odour emitting from some of the steroid using, meat-loving guys I meet. I have always held this theory that it was some ki…

This episode comes to you via one of our very own podcast listeners who recently turned vegan and is never looking back! Yes, apparently our new listener Jack was just so damn inspired by our podcast that it turned him vegan! And in doing so, he actually had a lot of great questions for us that we thought we'd turn into a whole damn episode. So tod…

Vabbing: The weird and gross TikTok trend where women literally take their vaginal discharge and place it behind their ears or perhaps on their neck and wrists (much like they would a perfume.) Apparently this attracts more male attention. Who the hell is actually doing this though? And WTF is wrong with people?! Naturally, I (Sam) had to try it fo…

It's no surprise that I love to nerd out on numbers when it comes to my health and fitness. Tracking my calories and macros is of course, something I've done for years already. But only recently have I become fascinated with tracking my body composition metrics. I'm talking how much fat weight I have vs. muscle mass, bone density and water floating…

Just in time for Valentine's Day, I am bringing you a very sexxxy and oh-so-taboo interview with one of my very own JOTB vegan clients: Professional Dominatrix Estelle Sinclair! Yes, we are diving into ALL the topics on this spicy episode! From farting fetishes and blindfolding to promoting veganism via sexual domination, we are learning ALL the ti…

November is deer hunting season here in Ontario, Canada. And the very reason why I (Sam) stopped eating animals at eight-years-old. Yes, it's an incredibly depressing time of year for me because of my personal connection to the beautiful deer that live out here. So naturally, I've been trolling hunters all month long via the local facebook groups! …

After 25 years of drinking an obscene amount of coffee every single day, I recently made the decision to break up with my caffeine addiction. Apparently my milf-spiration J-Lo doesn't drink coffee for skin health reasons. And I was really hoping that I'd notice many health benefits myself, mostly an improvement in my throat clearing without a major…

To BCAA or not to BCAA? That is the question I see on vegan bodybuilding groups all over the internet. And it's about damn time I share my own opinion on the subject. So if you are a vegan looking to build some muscle, I highly suggest you give this one a listen! Not only am I sharing my own experience with the supplementation of BCAAs but also my …

For many of us, the idea of meal prep seems like a pretty overwhelming task. Especially when we're trying to think up ideas that are not just vegan but also high in protein and low in carbs / fat. Well, fear not, dearest podcast listeners! A solid vegan bodybuilding meal prep does NOT have to be scary or time consuming. It can be as simple as combi…

After a recent friend breakup, I realized just how important it is to preserve our spiritual energy so that we can be the best versions of ourselves both inside and out. I'm sure we can all identify certain people in our lives who just seem to suck the energy right out of us. But then we can all agree that there are others we know who literally lig…

Well we've already covered periods, poops and perspiration on the past episodes. So naturally, it only made sense that we dedicate an entire podcast to bodily smells -- specifically, those emitting from our nether regions. I'm sure we've all heard that vegans taste better and drinking pineapple juice will make your secretions taste sweeter. But are…

To conclude our two-part anti-aging podcast series, we have scoured the internet for the best celebrity tips (according to Google) to help these stars (and now you) look and feel younger!

Last week I celebrated my 39th birthday feeling pretty damn good about myself and where I'm at in life. Yet it sparked a lot of self-reflection. Mostly my fears around turning 40 and becoming less physically attractive as I age. And yes, the perfect time to discuss on the podcast. Apparently aging is such a hot topic, we're doing a special JOTB two…

It's been over a year since the start of the pandemic and we are STILL on full lockdown mode here in Ontario, Canada. It sucks. We're all irritated, depressed, stressed out, bored, stuck at home and without a whole lot motivating us to workout especially with gyms being closed. For many of us, we're just trying to get through each day, hoping for s…

You walk into the kitchen, open the cupboards and blankly stare. You then grab whatever is easy and accessible and mindlessly start plugging your face with it. We're all familiar with this scenario. Because we've all been guilty of BOREDOM EATING. And Lord knows we've done plenty of it amidst this pandemic. So what better topic to discuss on this e…

Tell me who among us does not yearn for rock hard buttocks that you could crush walnuts with if need be?! Well, as a bodybuilding coach, I I'd say that a "nice butt" is easily the second most sought after body part people hire me for (flat stomach being #1.) And I'm the first to admit that I LOVE having a big ol' booty that you can bounce a quarter…

Well HAPPY HOLIDAYS everyone! Yes, we’ve done a few holiday episodes already. And while the others have focused on AVOIDING too much holiday indulgence, this year we decided to center our thoughts around the aftermath that follows a major holiday hog fest. That’s right! We're talking to YOU if your intentions went right down the toilet this year. P…

Ever notice how easy it is to feel deprived and miserable when you're on a strict "diet?" It's probably because you're completely fixated on losing pounds, dropping inches and deducting calories. Your whole focus is on something NEGATIVE aka "scarcity mentality." But when we can shift our mindset to one of GAINING rather than losing, the mental shi…

Let's be real. No one likes mosquitos. Not even vegans. We ALL kill mosquitos. But isn't that a little hypocritical of us? Or what about the environmentalist vegans who EAT insects? Or the vegans who eat oysters and mussels because they apparently do not feel ANY pain?! These things just don't feel very "vegan" to me. Then again, it's a "grey area"…

Yes we're in the middle of a pandemic with travel restrictions in place worldwide. Nevertheless, we recorded this podcast all about staying on track with diet and exercise whilst traveling literally RIGHT BEFORE Covid hit. And despite not being able to go on our all-inclusive trip to Mexico this year (thanks a lot Covid) we figured we might as well…

Oh boy, do we ever have a special episode in-store for this week! It's THE PERIOD PODCAST! And we are covering all things menstruation from painful PMS symptoms and junk food cravings to menophiliacs aka the dudes who literally have a fetish for period blood. Get your barf bags ready! But more importantly, we are digging into the science behind our…

With Covid-19 unfortunately still hanging out in many cities across the globe, many of us are still stressed /depressed /tired /scared /anxious, you name it. And one mind/body response that has become increasingly difficult for many of us to manage is WILLPOWER. Let's be real: it ain't easy to muster up the self-control and self-discipline required…

I know you've been losing sleep, excitedly awaiting the next episode of the JOTB Podcast! But truth be told, there's been radio silence because behind the scenes, it was a SHORKEY SISTER BATTLE ROYALE! Yup, we basically hated each other for the last two months and didn't know if we'd even be able to keep this podcast alive! But here we are. And tha…

We really kept thinking this Covid-19 lockdown situation would end "any day now" then our podcasting efforts would resume "any day now" too. But alas, here we are, more than two months later, and still on effing lockdown. But I'll be damned if I have to avoid recording podcasts any longer! And what better topic to discuss than good ol' Coronavirus?…

Would you describe your kitchen as "bright" and "fresh?" Well apparently that's how it should feel if you want to create a positive kitchen vibe that inspires you to cook healthy food!

Being a pro bikini competitor and having worked as a vegan trainer and nutrition coach for over seven years now, I definitely get asked the same exercise and nutrition questions ALL the time. So often that I've even created an "FAQ" document to reference for every time it happens. But I'm sick of copying and pasting that thing! So we thought why no…

HOLY CRAP, IT'S 2020! That year flew by but I guess having a baby will do that to you. Nevertheless, I'm excited for what 2020 will bring. So much optimistic energy floating around these days, we thought it only necessary to wish everyone a happy new year and of course, discuss our own thoughts on "New Year resolutions" and any goals we have for th…

There aren't many books that I've read THREE times! In fact, I can only think of two. One is “The Four Agreements” by Don Miguel Ruiz and it's basically about the self-limiting beliefs we love to carry around that essentially rob us of happiness and instead, create suffering. This book has been such a game-changer for how I approach the various peo…

I'll admit that I've always had a thing for bald men. I'll also admit that postpartum thinning hair SUCKS! Apparently sleep isn't the only thing a new mother loses after her baby is born... And so, what better (and timely) topic to address on the podcast than all things hair health and hair loss prevention?! That's right! It's "The Bald-Cast." And …

Trick or treat, bitches?! Oh you're in for a real TREAT, boys and ghouls! It's Halloween of course.

I thought my new favourite mantra "energy flows where attention goes" was profound (and cheesy) enough to base an entire podcast around. But after recording this episode, we realized that it was essentially all about excuses. And more specifically, how to stop making excuses for not accomplishing what we really want in life. As a vegan trainer and …

Anyone who knows anything about me knows just how OBSESSED I (Sam) am with BLOATING. (Or preventing being bloated I should say.) Yes, since immersing myself in the fitness world circa 2013, it's basically become my life's (self-absorbed) mission to avoid looking and feeling bloated at all costs! And this week on the podcast, I'm sharing all of my b…

Well here's an episode that for once, Sarah might actually be the bigger "expert." And that's because she is one of very few "digital minimalists" that exist in 2019. Sarah does not own a smart phone nor does she have an Instagram account. And yet, I'm sure we all know someone who can't go to the bathroom without their iPhone in hand. Sidenote: eww…

We all know how important sleep is for both our bodies and our minds. It is, after all, when our muscles repair themselves so we can get JACKED!

Well we've got you and your zzzzzz's covered on thi…

As a vegan coach, the #1 question I always get asked is "how to lose weight?"

This week, Oprah inspired me to record an entire podcast all about living with intention (thanks to her "Super Soul Conversation" with spiritual teacher Gary Zukav.)

This episode is for all the booze-loving babes out there. We all know that a glass of wine has its health benefits and probably isn’t going to make you fat. BUT regardless of the alcohol consumed, did you know that your body sees booze as a toxin and immediately stops digesting food to start getting rid of it?! And I think we can all admit that lat…

Oh the irony! Last week we were trying to motivate you listeners to stay on track with your diet and exercise. And this week, we're being total hypocrites after a week of PURE GLUTTONY at the family cottage. And because we failed so miserably at being healthy and active whilst away on vacation, we thought it only appropriate to share this epic fail…
