Built With Intent

Charlie Taverner

This podcast explores bodybuilding beyond the surface. From structured training and long-term progression to the systems behind real results. I sit down with athletes, coaches, and industry leaders to break down how they built their physiques, their mindset, and their process — not just where they ended up. We also look forward. Where bodybuilding is heading, what’s changing, and how to build a physique that lasts in a sport that’s always evolving. Built with intent. Focused on progression.

    #27 Jodi Porter - Finding Purpose Through Bodybuilding

    Jodie’s journey into bodybuilding goes far beyond the physical side of the sport. In this episode, we explore how bodybuilding gave her something she had been searching for for years - purpose, belonging, and a stronger sense of identity. Growing up feeling disconnected and out of place, Jodie opens up about how discovering bodybuilding changed the direction of her life. We discuss the confidence and community the sport can provide, the importance of finding the right environment to grow in, and why the relationships built through bodybuilding often become just as meaningful as the progress itself. We also dive into the realities of balancing bodybuilding with everyday life, the emotional side of prep, overcoming gym anxiety, and the accountability required to pursue personal growth while still showing up for the people around you. This conversation is about far more than physiques or stage shots. It’s about finding purpose through the process, building confidence through discipline, and becoming someone stronger both inside and outside the gym. If you’ve ever felt lost, disconnected, or unsure where you fit, this episode will show you why bodybuilding can become much more than just training.

    #26 Reece Pearson - Who You Are VS Who They See

    Reece Pearson is a coach and athlete known for his honesty, perspective, and ability to stay grounded in an industry that often rewards perception over reality. In this episode, we break down the role of self-perception within the fitness industry - and how social media can distort both how others see you and how you begin to see yourself. With only fragments of people’s lives shown online, it becomes easy to fall into comparison, overanalysis, and a disconnect from who you actually are. We discuss the importance of staying true to your identity, why overthinking perception can hold you back, and how shifting your focus away from external judgment allows you to operate with more clarity and confidence. From navigating criticism, to building a genuine presence both online and in person, this episode highlights the value of being congruent in an industry built on image. We also touch on the environment you build around yourself - he people, standards, and culture that allow you to grow without losing your identity - and why the individuals who last are the ones who stop trying to fit into what they think they should be. If you’re training, coaching, or building something within the fitness industry, this episode will give you a clearer perspective on how to move forward without losing yourself in the process.

    #25 Josh Croggon - Building Your Own Path In Bodybuilding

    Josh Croggon is a leading voice within natural bodybuilding, known for his emphasis on authenticity, individuality, and building a physique with intent. In this episode, we break down the reality of natural bodybuilding - and why it’s often misunderstood. With the influence of social media, many people view the sport as either too restrictive or overly simplistic, leading to a lack of engagement and long-term progress. At its core, natural bodybuilding is simple. But simple doesn’t mean boring. We discuss the importance of enjoying the process, why individuality matters more than copying what works for others, and how long-term success is built through consistency rather than chasing “optimal” at the expense of adherence. From finding genuine enjoyment in training, to building a personal brand that reflects who you actually are, this conversation focuses on doing bodybuilding properly - not just following the crowd. We also touch on the pressures created by social media, the value of authenticity in a saturated space, and why the athletes who last are the ones who build their own path. If you’re currently training, competing, or trying to find your place within bodybuilding, this episode will give you clarity on how to approach it in a way that actually lasts.

    #24 Geoff Foden - Fat Loss: Simple, Not Easy

    Geoff is an experienced coach with years of hands-on work helping clients navigate fat loss, cut through confusion, and build results that actually last. In this episode, we break down why fat loss is often made far more complicated than it needs to be. With the rise of social media, people are exposed to a constant stream of conflicting advice - creating confusion, hesitation, and a lack of real progress. At its core, fat loss is simple. But simple doesn’t mean easy. We discuss the fundamentals that actually drive results, why consistency always beats complexity, and how overthinking the process is often the biggest thing holding people back. From the role of structured challenges like “Shred,” to building trust and long-term success through coaching, this episode focuses on what really works, not what’s trending. We also touch on the reality of shortcuts, the importance of patience, and why real transformation takes time, not quick fixes. If you’re currently trying to lose fat, or feel stuck despite putting in effort, this episode will give you clarity on where to focus - and what to ignore.

Lewy is also very into his philosophy and advocate for mental health within the bodybuilding world. In today's world, social media has become a double-edged sword for many athletes.

Athletes frequently face judgment from fans and critics alike, especially when they falter.

    #21 Kamil Lobaczewski - The Overlooked Importance Of Rehab

    Kamil Lobaczewski is an Osteopath, Rehab Specialist, Online Coach and Entrepreneur. In the world of bodybuilding, rehab is often sidelined, but it’s crucial for long-term success. Rehabilitation is not merely about recovering from injuries; it is about enhancing overall performance and maintaining long-term health. Bodybuilders, like any athletes, are prone to injuries due to the intense physical demands they place on their bodies. Rehabilitation helps address these issues before they escalate, allowing athletes to train hard while minimising the risk of injury.
