“I really changed my life a lot…I was doing all the bad things…drinking, smoking cigarettes…I felt if I could do it, anyone could do it! You are never too old, too overweight…” 

-Hilary Topper, Author of From Couch Potato to Endurance Athlete: A Portrait of a Non-Athletic Triathlete.

What does it mean to be an athlete? For author Hilary Topper who never considered herself an athlete, turning 48 was the beginning of an adventure she never could have predicted. Today we welcome Hilary to the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast from her home in Long Island to share her journey from “couch potato” to endurance athlete. After realizing she had to make a change in her unhealthy lifestyle, Hilary is here to discuss how she went about hiring a trainer, finding some accountability partners, joining some training groups, and embracing her new life. Hilary also dispels the myths surrounding the ability to be an “endurance athlete,” even if you have never competed in sports before. Now, she is using her experiences to inspire others that “anyone can do it” through her book, From Couch Potato to Endurance Athlete: A Portrait of a Non-Athletic Triathlete. Learn more about Hilary, grab the book, or read her very witty and inspiring blogs by heading to her Instagram page and Linktree @hilarytopper.

Episode 274 - Rachel Lavin - Author of The Doughnut Diaries/Personal Trainer/Certified Life Coach 

“I turned 40…I was so tired of being unfulfilled…Whatever the “new thing” was, I tried it…Any diet is a repackaged restriction…” 

“It’s never too late to be happy. 

What is a “doughnut diary?” In today’s episode of the Two Fit Crazies and a Microphone Podcast, Rachel Lavin explains exactly what led her to write, The Doughnut Diaries: A Personal Trainer’s Tale of Being Every Size from 12 Through 0! After over twenty years as a fitness professional, Rachel is finally breaking her silence about how her love-hate relationship with doughnuts led to a life-changing epiphany. While Rachel does NOT promote the overindulgence of the sweet treat, she does promote the power of loving yourself in order to stop the “madness of dieting, restricting foods, or using exercise to make yourself smaller.” Get ready for a glimpse into what your life could look like once you stop hating your body and realizing that you are not alone.

Episode 267 - Mac Carvalho - Professional Fitness Trainer and Presenter

“Be unapologetically yourself”

“…the minute you stop growing as a human is the minute you stop thriving.”

It’s time for a huge dose of energy from yet another fantastic Fit Crazie guest by the name of Mac Carvalho! Joining the show from New Bedford, Massachusetts, Mac is going to drop some major fitness and marketing advice that you just can’t “afford” to miss! Growing up a dance enthusiast, Mac knew that movement and music was his true passion. However, after working a plethora of unfulfilling jobs in various industries, one simple, but scary decision to get ZUMBA certified, changed the entire course of his life! Today, Mac shares his journey from teaching group fitness classes and attending conferences, to becoming a master trainer and presenting on some of the biggest fitness stages in the United States. Mac even discusses what it takes to run the social media for SCW Fitness and how he has his eyes set on launching his own programs in the near future. After this episode, I guarantee you will start following Mac on social media and be inspired by his “fit crazie” energy to start living “unapologetically yourself!”

Stay Fit! Stay Crazie!

“The fulfillment in your life has to come from somewhere…be honest…”

“You get better at a job by what happens outside the job…learning, following-up...” - Paul Landini

While spring is making its first appearances at the Jersey shore for the Two Fit Crazies, just outside of Toronto the weather remains freezing for today’s guest, Paul Landini. In this episode, Paul, a Canadian rockstar personal trainer, writer, and fitness educator, shares his journey from “quitting his job and going all in” to following his passion for fitness and starting his own company. With a background in journalism and a desire to change lives, Paul discusses how he combined his love of writing and his love of personal training to create the fitness business of his dreams! Listen closely as Paul reveals how writing weekly blogs and authoring articles for the Globe and Mail, one of Canada’s leading newspapers, allowed him the exposure and credibility needed to grow his client base and increase client retention. Regardless of your profession, Paul knows that “fulfillment in your life has to come from somewhere,” and until you find what “fills your cup,” you will miss the most important things in life.
