Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ I took the chance last week to interview Karen for the podcast, and I LOVED hearing her story. She's what I call a TYPE A CLIENT — she asks questions, she's coachable, and she implements. She was simply done with struggling and willing to do the work. Seeing her deadlift 100kg and climb stairs on a trek made me so bloody happy. This is what success looks like!
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ My guy Paul has been through a lot. Living on a rural part of New Zealand and being isolated from friends and family when the shit hit the fan in his life, he stacked on the weight. But at a point in time, he decided, enough is enough. He got himself together and at the ripe old age of 53, has created a new version of himself. And on this episode, he's here to tell the story.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Losing weight is hard when your start point is 400 pounds. But today's guest, Jon Woods - wasn't ready to give in and die a young man. After joining BBA, his weight loss has been phenomenal, and I am confident he will soon become our biggest ever transformation. Today, he's on the episode to tell his inspiration story.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Between 80 and 85 percent of people who lose a lot of weight put it back on, and the average dieter has already tried five different approaches before they find that out the hard way. In this episode Jase breaks down the five phases of a real rebuild, why six to twelve months is rarely enough to undo twenty years of habits, and what the most successful people he knows do differently when progress stalls. If you've lost the weight before and watched it come back, this is the episode that explains why, and what to ask yourself instead of "am I finished yet".
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ You can't sit on the couch and hope to get fit, so why do we all sit around hoping our mental health sorts itself out? In this episode Jase breaks down what good and bad mental health actually look like day to day, why physical exhaustion and putting everyone else first are the two biggest culprits, the five triggers that show up in almost every case, and a two minute daily reflection that works better than any meditation app you've downloaded and used twice. You'll walk away with ten proactive things you can start this week, and permission to pick just two of them.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ A client asked Jase if he could just play tennis instead of lifting weights, and the honest answer is the most important thing you will hear this year. In this episode Jase breaks down exactly what strength training is, why HIIT, Pilates, yoga and group fitness classes are not the same thing, what happens to your muscle, bones, posture, brain and hormones after 40, and why menopause and dropping testosterone make this non negotiable. You will walk away knowing the smallest amount you can get away with, and why one session a week forever beats six sessions a week until February.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ You've lost the same 20 kilos four or five times, and it has nothing to do with willpower or a lack of discipline. In this episode Jase breaks down why your mind runs like a thermostat set to "overweight," why your subconscious beats willpower every single time, and the three things that actually move the setpoint for good, using client Nick Friend's 20kg transformation and Jase's own story. This is the single idea that changed Jase's life, and it will change the way you see every result you've ever gotten.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ One big meal was never your problem, the four days of "I've already stuffed it" eating afterwards is what's actually making you gain weight. Jase breaks down the maths of why a blowout lunch barely dents your week, names the "what the hell" effect that turns one pizza into a write-off weekend, and shares how to go from hiding for a fortnight after every bad weekend to becoming the most consistent you've ever been. Listen before your next meal out and you'll never wait for Monday again.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ "I'll start fresh Monday" feels like motivation, but it's secretly a licence to blow up Thursday through Sunday and start every week deeper in the hole than the last. In this episode, Jase breaks down why the Monday reset is just the Failure Cycle in a calendar costume, and how clients that finally broke the loop by ditching the reset button, make the next meal the only starting line. If you've been starting Monday since last year, this is the episode that finally kills the habit.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Most people don't have a motivation problem. They have a direction problem. In this episode, Jase opens up a note he wrote in December 2018 at his lowest point and walks through what getting genuinely clear on what you want actually looks like and what it produces over seven years. If you've been grinding hard but can't explain what you're grinding toward, this one is for you.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Kaz Collins has logged 480+ days of steps without breaking a streak, maintained daily check-ins through four overseas trips, and has been a picture of consistency. She didnt have a lot of weight to lose, and this proves once again that transformation is so much more than the scales. In this episode, Jase sits down with Kaz for an honest conversation about what 16 months inside BBA really looks like — the 10kg gone, the shoulder that won't quit, the strength milestones, and what happens when results feel invisible even when the data says otherwise. If you've ever done everything right and still wondered if it's working, this one's for you.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Ben started in BBA as a client but before that, he and I were just mates. He came into our Academy as a way to get himself mentally and physically straightened out. A very successful builder running a solid, award-winning business - he "had it all" as they say. But the stress of running that business accumulated on him - he drank way too much and eventually needed to make some changes. And that he did - quitting the drink and eventually moving his family to Bali. Ben spoke at the inaugural Men's Only Retreat in 2023 and he was phenomenal. Then again at our recent Bali Retreat, and he was even better. Now Ben has started in the coaching space himself teaching the strategies he's learned to help cope with the struggles we face in the modern world. That includes mindfulness techniques and certain meditations. Ben and I have spent a good bit of time together in Bali and so we decided to film an episode together. So many men will resonate with his words here! Having the courage to first sort your sh*t out is big... But then to not just talk the talk, but walk the walk even more so. I hope you enjoy this conversation...
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ What does sustainable fat loss actually look like? In this episode of the Better Body Academy Podcast, I sit down with one of our incredible clients, Kylie Downs, to unpack how she lost almost 15kg, dropped 25cm off her waist, and completely changed her lifestyle without crash dieting or spending hours in the gym. We talk about what was holding Kylie back before she started, the mindset shifts that made the biggest difference, and why consistency always beats perfection. This isn't one of those overnight transformation stories. It's a real conversation about building habits that actually fit around work, family, stress, and everyday life. If you've ever felt like you've "tried everything" but still can't seem to make lasting progress, this episode will show you what happens when you finally stop chasing quick fixes and start trusting the process. In this episode we cover: • How Kylie lost almost 15kg while still living a normal life • The daily habits that created consistent fat loss • Why high-protein eating made staying on track easier • The biggest mindset changes behind her success • How she handled stressful periods without giving up • What she'd tell anyone who's sitting on the fence about getting started If you're looking for proof that sustainable transformation is possible, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ If you've ever felt like you're constantly hungry when trying to lose weight, this episode is for you. Most people think fat loss requires eating tiny portions, battling cravings, and relying on endless willpower. But what if the real problem isn't your motivation… it's your hunger? In this episode, I break down one of the biggest principles we teach inside Better Body Academy: volume eating. You'll learn why your stomach doesn't count calories, why some 500-calorie meals leave you starving while others keep you full for hours, and how combining high-volume foods, protein, and fibre can make fat loss dramatically easier. We'll also cover: * Why hunger is the real reason most diets fail * The difference between eating less food and eating fewer calories * Why protein alone isn't always enough * The BBA framework for structuring meals * Practical examples you can start using immediately * How to stop fighting your biology and start working with it If you're sick of feeling deprived every time you try to lose weight, this episode will completely change the way you think about food, fullness, and sustainable fat loss. Because the secret isn't learning how to eat less. It's learning how to eat more of the right things. 💪🏻
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Are you actually living your life consciously? Or are you simply repeating it? In this episode, Jase explores a powerful idea that sits at the intersection of mindset, psychology, and personal transformation: most people are running on autopilot. They wake up at the same time, think the same thoughts, follow the same routines, and then wonder why nothing changes. Drawing on concepts from personal development and behavioural psychology, Jase breaks down how your environment shapes your thoughts, your thoughts shape your actions, and your actions ultimately create your results—whether that's your body, your finances, your relationships, or your happiness. If you've ever felt stuck, unmotivated, or frustrated that another year seems to have slipped by without making the progress you promised yourself, this episode is your wake-up call. In this episode you'll learn: • Why most people unknowingly live their lives on autopilot • How your environment is silently shaping your future • The reason motivation isn't the answer you're looking for • Why winter and the middle of the year are where goals go to die • How to break the patterns that keep you stuck • The simple mindset shift that can completely change your trajectory This isn't about manifestation. It's about awareness. It's about taking ownership. And it's about recognising that if you keep repeating yesterday, you'll keep getting yesterday's results. So the question becomes: If not now… when?
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Have you ever looked at a photo of yourself and instantly felt disappointed? Maybe you've caught your reflection in the mirror, tried on an old pair of jeans, or seen a picture someone tagged you in and thought, "How did I get this bad?" If so, you're not alone. In this episode, Jase dives into one of the most common — and most damaging — drivers behind failed transformations: self-loathing. While shame can often be the thing that gets us started, it rarely gets us to the finish line. In fact, trying to hate yourself into a body you love is one of the fastest ways to end up stuck in the cycle of starting, stopping, and starting again. You'll learn: * The difference between self-awareness and self-loathing * Why shame can create short-term action but destroys long-term consistency * How body image struggles affect almost everyone — even coaches * The hidden link between self-criticism and self-sabotage * Why your weight and your worth are two completely different things * Practical ways to challenge the negative stories you tell yourself This isn't a fluffy "love yourself no matter what" conversation. It's a real discussion about how to tell yourself the truth, take responsibility for where you are, and still treat yourself like someone worth fighting for. Because shame might get you started. But self-respect is what gets you to the finish line. If you've ever struggled with body image, self-doubt, or that little voice in your head telling you you're not enough, this episode is for you.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ We call them Class A clients. Guys and girls that join our program and are willing to just trust the process and follow the plan... It's no surprise then that these guys get incredible results. Luke Mudie is a class A client. Humble AF, constantly giving to other people, He brings energy and consistency to our community. And when someone says they're 11 kilos down, you might think, 'yeah, that's cool.' But what you're not seeing is the change that's more than skin deep. In this client interview, we peel back the real transformation that Luke has undergone.
Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ Most people think they need more information to lose weight. They don't. They need more implementation. In this episode, I break down what accountability actually means and why it's one of the most misunderstood concepts in health and fitness. We discuss: * Why information without application is just noise * The two things every successful client needs: results and connection * The PACE Framework (Posting, Attending, Check-ins, Engaging) * Why accountability is not punishment, criticism, or judgement * The difference between accountability and ass-kissing * Why coaches can support you, but can never want it more than you do * Why our coaching team will happily "bug the shit" out of clients who start drifting off track If you've ever resisted accountability or thought it was someone policing your behaviour, this episode will completely change the way you look at it. Because accountability isn't about control. It's about giving yourself the best possible chance of success.

Free Transformation Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/bbafree Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jasestuartBBC Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jasestuart_fit _ How many decisions in your life are being controlled by the fear of what other people might think? In this episode, Jase dives into a powerful psychological concept known as The Spotlight Effect — our tendency to believe that everyone is watching us, judging us, and paying far more attention to us than they actually are. Whether it's joining the gym, wearing certain clothes, posting on social media, starting a business, applying for a promotion, or finally taking control of your health, the fear of judgement keeps millions of people stuck living smaller lives than they're capable of. You'll learn: * What the Spotlight Effect is and why it affects all of us * Why people massively overestimate how much others notice them * How fear of judgement sabotages weight loss and confidence * The link between the Spotlight Effect and perfectionism * Why confidence doesn't come before action * Practical ways to stop caring so much about what others think * How to become a better example for your children by acting despite fear If you've ever delayed taking action because you were worried about looking silly, failing publicly, or being judged, this episode is for you. The truth is simple: Most people are too busy worrying about themselves to spend much time worrying about you. And that might just be the most liberating thing you'll hear all week.
