0:00.0 | Hello listeners. I hope everyone is doing well this week. In this episode, I do have some big |
0:11.7 | news. The news is that after this episode, there will only be four more episodes where I will be the Get Fit Guy. I would like to take this |
0:25.0 | episode to state my reasons for this decision. I hope I can leave everyone with four really good |
0:30.8 | episodes to listen to before I sign off. Now, I don't have any hierarchy of reasons here. I'm not listing these in order of importance, |
0:39.9 | just the order in which I'm writing them out. Okay? So first up is reasons of what I'm going to call |
0:47.9 | morality and value capture. So everyone that's been listening has heard me yapping on about philosophy often enough, |
0:57.4 | so it shouldn't be a surprise that that has influenced my thought process. And I'm going to go |
1:03.0 | ahead right now and plant my flag and say, I am a utilitarian. That is that the greatest happiness for the greatest number is the measure of |
1:14.8 | right and wrong. I'm a pretty objective person and I can say when I look at things, |

1:47.7 | We're just talking about going to the gym and doing things there. |
1:52.7 | And normally when we talk about fitness and training, |
1:55.2 | there would be an element in that, which would include nutrition and even psychology. |
2:00.2 | So when we remove those two things, the subject area |
2:04.1 | that we can talk about significantly shrinks. Now, this network of shows does have a nutrition show, |
2:11.0 | and it does have a psychology show. And whilst no one has directly said that I can't talk about those things, it's implied. |
2:21.4 | Now, if the nutrition diva started making episodes about squatting, I'd probably think she needed to stay in her lane. |
2:29.3 | So it's no different for me. I don't think I should be making recommendations about things I don't know a huge |
2:35.4 | amount about. Now, I do know how to do research. That is a skill set I have developed, but I just |
