Diary Of A Big Lad
When it comes to self-improvement, Chade O’Brien has seen and tried it all. From fad diets and personal trainers to chasing mystical fitness unicorns. However, after more ups-and-downs in the gym than Arnie’s dumbbells, 2022 saw Chade logging what genuinely worked and sharing his success on social media. This evolved into the 'Diary Of A Big Lad Podcast' – an ordinary 'big lad's guide to fitness, sharing nuggets of wisdom from his journey.
Join the North's sweatiest man (and his wobbly wingman, Nico) as they tackle a new fitness topic each week, sifting through the myths to discover what truly gets results. They run exercises, experiment with different methods and interview guests on their ongoing quest to not only finding the methods that work the best for them, but helping you hone in on which ones can work for you!

Musical Motivation: Sweating from A to Z

Something a little different this week as Chade and Nico go head-to-head to name motivational movie soundtracks to help you get the cinematic pump you need on your workout, whether it be running, walking, lifting, or just shaking your tush while doing the dishes.
The rules are simple. Work through the alphabet taking a turn each to name a motivation soundtrack (or as is established half-way through...the name of a song from a motivational soundtrack...).
The goal is to ultimately discuss what motivational music works for each player, so although there's technically no wrong answers, some need justifying and will be defended in a follow up episode in a couple of weeks. Nico stands by 'Jump In The Line' from 'Paddington 2' IS perfect for a high energy hype workout.
