I'm recording this almost exactly a year into her journey, as she's about to begin her second year, and she's celebrating 23kg down so far, with just a few more to go until she hits her checkpoint. Priya's journey began after the sudden passing of her brother, just four months after she'd lost her mother. It came at a moment in her life where she took a hard, honest look at her own health, her habits, and her body composition, and knew she wanted to make a serious change. Here we are a year later, and Priya is a completely different woman. I'm really excited for you to hear this account of what true change entails, and how Priya took one of the most difficult times in her life and turned it into fuel to transform herself, and those around her.

    Ep 505 - Hall of Fame | Dr. Samir Patel: Beating Skinny-Fat and Building the Physique He Always Wanted at 45

    Built for Life Newsletter: https://builtforlife.io Twice-weekly emails for high performers who want to look good, feel great and perform at their best    Book a 1-1 strategy session: https://www.rntfitness.co.uk/applynow    –   On today's episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I'm joined by long-term RNTer Samir Patel, who's been with us for three and a half years. This Hall of Fame episode is a little different, because we walk through Samir's journey from a lifetime of being skinny-fat, never quite getting the physique he'd always wanted, to building a strong, muscular, lean body he's genuinely proud of in his mid-40s.   As a doctor and general practitioner, Samir has always understood the intricacies and importance of health, but he could never get the results in his own body until joining us at RNT. He started skinny-fat, went through a phase of leaning down, and has since built a substantial amount of muscle over the last couple of years. When you compare his pictures at the same body weight on the way down to where he is now, it's a quite remarkable recomposition.   This is a great episode for anyone struggling with skinny-fat syndrome who wants to build a strong, shredded physique.   Chapters: Audio  0:05 Introduction & Episode Overview 2:02 Christmas 2022: The Trigger and Losing His Father 5:00 Discovering RNT and Deciding to Commit 8:03 Why Build Muscle: Unpacking the "Superficial" Six-Pack Goal 15:24 Losing the Weight First: The Skinny-Fat Cut 19:19 Seeing the Transformation and Building Confidence 26:27 Redesigning His Day and Building a Sustainable System 35:07 Nutrition, Family Support and the Long Timeline to Build Muscle 38:58 Falling in Love with Training, Not Just Enduring It 44:53 Navigating Social Life and Alcohol 50:57 From Physician to Patient: Rethinking His Medical Practice 55:32 Health vs. Fitness: Why Muscle Is a Metabolic Organ 58:48 Reading the Warning Signs: Bloods, Cholesterol and GLP-1s 1:05:41 The Physical as a Vehicle: Reflection, Family and Success 1:11:45 Advice for the Skinny-Fat Journey and Closing Thoughts   –   Follow us: Website - https://www.rntfitness.com  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rnt_fitness  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/akashvaghela YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@akash_vaghela

Today I'm joined by RNTer Vivek, who recently hit a checkpoint with us. When Vivek turned 40, he decided enough was enough. Having watched a number of his friends go through the RNT journey and absolutely crush it, he finally took the plunge at the start of 2026.   He's a father of two, holds a global role in a VC group, and is based out in Texas. For Vivek, the challenges were always the same: a relentless work schedule spanning every time zone, travelling two weeks of every month, and two young kids to balance it all around.   This is a brilliant insight into what it looks like to go from having no structure with your health and fitness to fully dialling in, and using the physical transformation as a vehicle to improve every other aspect of your life. Vivek is down 26 lbs, in the best shape of his life, and looking forward to a productive muscle-building phase with us.   So let's dive in.   Chapters: 0:05 Intro 1:58 The Trigger Moments Behind Vivek's Decision 3:30 Why Personal Health Kept Getting Deprioritized 5:08 Turning 40 And Deciding Enough Was Enough 6:42 Building A New Routine Around Work And Family 11:00 Nutrition And Travel Strategies 14:58 A Free Book For Listeners 15:27 Staying Consistent Through The Process 16:46 The Mindset Shift Around Food And Habits 19:09 Prioritizing Sleep As A Family Man 21:12 Hitting Checkpoint At 26 Pounds Down 23:47 Future Goals 26:11 Family And Work Impact 29:37 Advice For Busy Dads Turning 40 32:04 Final Words   –   Follow us: Website - https://www.rntfitness.com  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/rnt_fitness  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/akashvaghela YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@akash_vaghela
