  • Ep 440 - Hall Of Fame | Dr. Roya Javid: Maintaining A Bikini Body For 3+ Years Intuitively At 52 Year Old (As A Mom Of Two, Physician + Entrepreneur)
    Aug 6 2025

    On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m joined by long-time RNTer and physician, Roya Javid, to explore what life has looked like since first starting her journey with us at the end of 2021.

    After being diagnosed with scoliosis at age 12, Roya spent much of her life battling chronic pain. Then, following the pandemic and a rotator cuff surgery in 2021, she began gaining weight and losing structure. With years of diet attempts behind her, she was searching for a sustainable solution—and that’s when she came across RNT after taking one of our quizzes, which we’ll link in the show notes.

    Fast forward to today: at 52 years young, Roya is still in the best shape of her life. She’s maintained a bikini-body physique year-round, all while juggling motherhood, running multiple businesses, launching a non-profit, and enjoying complete food freedom.

    If you’ve ever wondered what the strategies behind long-term success look like with the RNT Transformation Journey, this episode is for you.

  • Ep 439 - Hall Of Fame | Archna Mehta: Results In Her 40s Despite PCOS, Menopause Hypothyroid & Vegetarian Diet
    Jul 30 2025

    On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I'm sitting down with RNTer Archna Mehta who joined us a year ago after hitting a breaking point when she was trying on clothes during a shopping visit. She tried everything for years but after seeing her cousin go through the RNT journey, she knew a holistic approach with a proven method was the missing piece.Fast forward a year and despite PCOS, menopause, hypothyroid, vegetarian diet and being in her mid-40s, Archna is in the best shape of her life and is now working on building a lifestyle solution to maintain it year-round. And it's not just the physical results. Archna has grown in confidence and energy; and her health, hormones and habits are in the best place ever. Archna is now entering her second year into the journey, and this is an awesome podcast showing what happens when you go all in.

  • Ep 437 - Is High Performance Without Pressure Possible?
    Jun 25 2025

    Welcome back to RNT Fitness Radio.

    Today, I’m joined by Coach Ivan, who’s flown in all the way from Australia to spend a few days with us here in the UK. While he’s over, we decided to hit record on a conversation we’ve been having behind the scenes — all about the concept of performance without pressure.

    For most of my life, I’ve thrived on pressure. Big goals. High stakes. All-or-nothing thinking. It’s driven a lot of what I’ve achieved. But recently, I’ve started to question whether that pressure is still serving me — or if it’s just a part of an old identity I’ve outgrown.
    In this episode, we unpack what it really means to perform at a high level without constantly chasing, grinding, or forcing outcomes. It’s a reflective and real conversation, and I hope it sparks something for you too.

    Let’s dive in.

    Chapters:
    00:00 Performance Without Pressure
    02:59 The Journey of Self-Discovery
    10:13 The Importance of Enjoying the Process

    30:34 Intelligent Training and the Role of Coaching
    31:45 Rediscovering Joy in Fitness
    32:42 Identity Shifts and Personal Growth

  • Ep 436 - What Mindfulness Is Missing (Re-Run)
    Jun 18 2025

    Hey, it’s Akash here, and on this week’s episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I’m bringing back a classic - a rerun of what’s still the most popular team episode we’ve ever recorded.

    It’s called “What Typical Mindfulness Is Missing”, and over the years, it’s racked up tens of thousands of downloads. I think it struck it chord when it dropped because it tackled a conversation we have often behind the scenes at RNT - the idea that you can’t just think your way to a transformation.

    Mindfulness is powerful, and it absolutely has its place. But on its own, it’s not enough. Just like physical change isn’t the full picture either. What we’re really after - and what this episode explores - is a holistic approach that blends mind, body, and action.


    This originally aired four or five years ago, but the message is just as relevant today - if not more. I hope you enjoy revisiting it.

  • Ep 434 - Hall Of Fame | Raj Shah: C Suite Executive Gets Shredded At 40
    Jun 4 2025

    On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I sit down with Raj Shah, a father of two and C suite executive of a major pharmaceutical company in the UK.

    Raj first came on the pod on episode 92, after his first photoshoot back in 2019, and here we are… 6 years later, talking about how his journey has unfolded since. Raj went on an aggressive Investment Phase for a few years, and decided for his 40th this year, he wanted to pull the pin and get into the best shape of his life.

    This was a fun one we filmed in the studio, so check out the RNT Fitness YouTube Channel for the footage.
