The Cost of Discipline: Burnout, Body Image & the Hustle Myth (Brian Keane & Anthony Walsh)

This was one of my favourite podcasts that I've appeared on.   It was with my friend Anthony Walsh from his studio in Dublin.   We go long here (nearly two hours) and touch on so many different topics. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed recording it.    You can follow Anthony's Roadmap Cycling show here:   https://open.spotify.com/show/2oCs3N4ahypwzzUrFqgUmC   Prefer to watch your podcasts? The full video is on my YouTube channel Brian Keane Fitness ____________________________________________   What happens when the identity that once drove you starts holding you back? In this honest and wide-ranging conversation, Anthony reconnects with Brian Keane—author, speaker, and ultra-endurance coach—to explore the line between discipline and dysfunction. They dive into self-doubt, social pressure, and the reality of rebuilding when your goals shift. Brian shares what a decade in fitness has taught him, how he's reframed his training around purpose, and why foundational movement always wins out over trends. From Ozempic to testosterone, strength periodization to mindset shifts, nothing’s off the table. If you’re feeling stuck, questioning your routine, or just curious about what sustainable growth really looks like—this episode is for you.
