48. All your exercise questions answered (part 1) with Adam Martin, accredited exercise physiologist

You've got the questions, we've got the answers. In todays episode I speak to Adam Martin, more commonly known as "The No Breakfast Guy", an accredited exercise physiologist and has been in the industry for almost 15 years. Adam specialises in helping people get back to and beyond their pre-injury state. Adam has worked with clients that range from large companies (e.g. Amazon), Olympic athletes and 94 year olds looking to stay mobile in their later years. Adam has also written an Amazon best selling book about fasting called 'Start Late, Stay Light' and now runs an Instagram page called "The No Breakfast Guy” (@the_no_breakfast_guy). 

Adam is answering all your questions around exercise! This episode is part 1 of a 2 part series so, if your question isn’t answered in this episode, be sure to listen to next weeks episode as well. Today, Adam and I cover the following topics: the most important exercises to get lean, whether pilates and boxing is enough for gaining muscle, the difference between a physiotherapist, an exercise physiologist, an osteopath and a chiropractor, whether you should start your workout with cardio or weights, whether you should exercise if you’re unwell, the best training tips for a half marathon, how to avoid flaring up a hip flexor injury and tips and techniques to avoiding injury.
