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. So without further ado, let's dive in.

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.

Ameet started his journey after an off-the-cuff comment from one of his elderly patients triggered him into action, propelling him to take control of his health, build a fitter lifestyle, and finally achieve the body he'd always wanted. In this episode, we talk about how he lost the weight, how he's learning to sustain it, and, what's really cool, how he's now bringing RNT's methodologies and practices into his own work as a physician.

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.

Today I'm joined by Neel Chandarana, who comes on the podcast to share what the first three years of his journey with us have been like. Neel recently celebrated three years with RNT, having lost 30 kg, consolidated it beautifully, built a substantial amount of muscle, and, more than anything, refined the lifestyle solution that's kept him in great shape, right in his sweet spot, for the last two and a half years. I wanted to bring him on to talk about what this actually looks like in the real world, for an entrepreneur, a business owner, a dad of three, someone who loves to travel and has learned to bring health and fitness into his day-to-day life. If you want to know what a successful, long-term investment phase really looks like, this episode is for you. So without further ado, let's dive in.
