The PHYBA™ Performance Podcast

As a doctor specialising in gut health problems, I have made evidence-based dietary advice an essential part of my clinical practice. The results I have seen in my gastroenterology clinic have led me to become dedicated a dedicated advocate for the gut health benefits, and overall health benefits, of a whole-food plant-based approach to nutrition. I have presented at numerous international conferences alongside renowned plant-based advocates such as Dr Michael Greger, Dr Michael Klaper, Dietician Brenda Davis, Dr Kim Williams, and Dr Neal Barnard.  I am an Ambassador for Plant-Based Health Professionals UK, a not-for-profit group which educates the public, health professionals, and policy makers on the incredible health benefits of a plant-based diet. Certified in both Gastroenterology and General Internal Medicine, I completed my specialist training in Ireland and Oxford. I have a specialist interest in the role of diet in the prevention and treatment of digestive diseases. A member of the Royal College of Physicians of Ireland, and a fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, London, I have published several influential research papers in the field of Inflammatory Bowel Disease. Originally from County Cork in Ireland, I now live with my family in Devon, UK and work as a full-time NHS Consultant.

I’m Brooke, I’m a Mum of three, ocean goer, sun seeker, adventure enthusiast and lover of ALL things health, fitness and the great outdoors! Professionally I am an international health & fitness educator, speaker and writer, having presented at fitness events across Australia, Asia and New Zealand & written for AUS leading health & fitness publications. I am a tertiary qualified nutritionist & exercise scientist, specialising in exercise and nutrition for pregnancy and motherhood and helping women find a balanced approach to healthy, active living for long term mental AND physical wellbeing. I have over 14 years experience in the health & fitness industry, have trained hundreds of women through their pregnancies (single, twin & quad!), and motherhood journeys & have educated hundreds of exercise professionals across 13 countries in my internationally recognised course Functional Fitness for Pregnancy & Postpartum! I am on a mission to educate and empower women, athletes and exercise professionals working with women, everywhere, on safe, effective and enjoyable exercise for pregnancy and motherhood. I know that postpartum is forever & that ALL Mums matter, regardless of how long you’ve been in the ‘hood for. I believe in striving for a balanced approach to healthy, active living – for long term PHYSICAL and MENTAL well-being and results. This means eating and moving in a way that is fun, enjoyable and sustainable - because exercise shouldn’t be used as punishment or seen as a chore and food isn’t good, bad or forbidden, but to be enjoyed in moderation.

About Bill Campbell PhD   I want you to enjoy your fitness lifestyle. I believe the way you enjoy your fitness lifestyle is to have confidence that what you’re doing (in your exercise and nutrition programs) is correct. I never want anyone to feel like they’re wasting their time or energy on diets that don’t work for them or follow workout programs that are not based on the evidence. That’s why I’ve dedicated my life to studying the most effective diets and training programs to optimize body composition in a way that is sustainable. I embrace simplicity without compromising on what works.

About Sam: I am a person that believes in hard work. No body in life will give you anything for free, so always work for the things you want. I never came from a rich family, but I was lucky enough to have a family that supported me in my decisions to what truly made me happy. I like to keep myself active all the time. I enjoy doing various things at once, and always learning new things. I apply that to life outside of bodybuilding as well. I never really get to have a lot of down time, but because I enjoy doing the jobs and career paths I've taken, I know with my body and mental state, when it is time to have a break and rest. Always listen to the body, have balance, and do what makes you happy!
