Episode 259 - Paul Landini - Personal Trainer, Health Educator, Writer and Strength and Conditioning Coach

“The fulfillment in your life has to come from somewhere…be honest…”

“You get better at a job by what happens outside the job…learning, following-up...” - Paul Landini

While spring is making its first appearances at the Jersey shore for the Two Fit Crazies, just outside of Toronto the weather remains freezing for today’s guest, Paul Landini. In this episode, Paul, a Canadian rockstar personal trainer, writer, and fitness educator, shares his journey from “quitting his job and going all in” to following his passion for fitness and starting his own company. With a background in journalism and a desire to change lives, Paul discusses how he combined his love of writing and his love of personal training to create the fitness business of his dreams! Listen closely as Paul reveals how writing weekly blogs and authoring articles for the Globe and Mail, one of Canada’s leading newspapers, allowed him the exposure and credibility needed to grow his client base and increase client retention. Regardless of your profession, Paul knows that “fulfillment in your life has to come from somewhere,” and until you find what “fills your cup,” you will miss the most important things in life.

Healthy Rants with The Two Fit Crazies - Episode 245

The Two Fit Crazies And A Microphone Podcast

Episode 245 - Healthy Rants with The Two Fit Crazies

“Today we are going to work on our mental health….sometimes you need to vent or rant to get things off your chest…like how many times each day are you solicited by strangers on social media can solve all of your problems if you simply give them tons of money…#annoyed” - Christine Conti

“LinkedIn messages are the new way to cold call…they always know EXACTLY WHAT I NEED to…grow my business…get more clients…improve my followers on social media.” - Brian Prendergast

This episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast has been a long time in the making. For over four years, Christine and Brian have been dancing around some of their most irritating pet peeves, but today, it all changes! Are you bombarded by strangers on your social media feeds pressuring you to buy their programs, potions, and pills with false promises of eternal health, more Instagram followers, or better yet, millions of dollars in hidden revenue? Me, too! Does everyone seem to know “exactly what you need” to “solve all of your problems?” Me, too! Are you completely annoyed by “Peter” who is currently contacting you from a small Thai village with the promise of bringing you fortune and fame from your impending collaboration? Attend my seminar, download my manual, input your credit card, bank account or social security number. It’s that easy! And all you are thinking is, “Thank God for this random person who just made my life complete!” You will not want to miss this hysterical, yet completely accurate rant session with the Two Fit Crazies! Can you relate? 

Rant Over!

Carlee Hayes, RDN - Lead Dietician for NutriSense - Episode 237

Episode 237 - Carlee Hayes, RDN - Lead Dietician for NutriSense

Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) who specializes in bariatric nutrition therapy and weight loss. She graduated from Western Illinois University and has worked as a nutritionist at MultiCare Health Systems and Veterans Affairs.

“I’m focused on data over dogma!”

“…80% of chronic conditions can be prevented or delayed…”

-Carlee Hayes

In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Brian and Christine have an awesome conversation with Carlee Hayes. Joining the show from Washington state, Carlee discusses how her frustration with the reactive world of nutrition and medicine lead her to join forces with a start-up tech company called NutriSense. Carlee, who currently serves as the company’s lead registered dietitian nutritionist, delves into the fascinating new world of wearables that she believes are key to improving metabolic health. “Continuous glucose monitoring, or CGM, is a 14-day patch that attaches to the back of your arm. It relays 24/7 data about your glucose levels to an APP on your phone.”  Carlee also discusses how this new technology developed by NutriSense may be the key to prevent or even delay the onset of various chronic conditions that are linked to the body’s inability to regulate glucose levels. And if that’s not enough, listen up athletes and runners!  You are going to fall in love with this new wearable that can help to track glucose levels to determine your individualized plan for optimal hydration and nutrition for all your future adventures! Let’s use data over dogma and take control over our health!

“The pandemic has allowed us more freedom and opportunities for collaboration.” -Elizabeth Lenart

Welcome to the FIRST EVER Two Fit Crazies and Microphone Podcast where Brian and Christine are hosting this amazing show from separate locations. While the two crazies are temporarily quarantined from one another, it will not stop them from conducting an amazing interview with a super talented, smart, and beautiful international fitness educator by the name of Elizabeth Lenart. Joining the show from Massachusetts, Elizabeth talks about what “fires her up” and how she was able to thrive in the fitness industry despite a world-wide pandemic. Listen carefully as Elizabeth reveals how she was able to overcome a massive spinal fusion at the age of 13 that left her with two metal rods in her spine. What would appear to be an extreme obstacle for so many, Elizabeth realized that this was a great experience that would help ignite her passion for movement and turn it into a successful career. With a degree in guidance and counselling, along with decades of experience educating, writing programs, presenting, and speaking at fitness conferences around-the-globe, Elizabeth Lenart is changing lives with her messages of inclusivity and body positivity.
