'On this episode of RNT Fitness Radio I’m joined by singer Lucy Spraggan, who first sprung to the limelight for auditioning on X-Factor in 2012, and since gone on to produce a number of top chart albums. More recently, after years of struggling with alcohol, she went totally sober and decided to go headfirst into getting into shape. What transpired was a whole new body, lifestyle and mindset, and in this episode we discuss this transformation, as well as the struggles she faced, managing her new identity and what we can do to make gyms more female friendly! “The only validation that should matter should be from you.” - Lucy Spraggan Timestamps [00:00] – Intro [01:58] – Waking up in Vegas, and just running [04:33] – Drinking to escape, and escaping drinking [07:43] – The struggle with moderation: restrictive diets and excessive drinking [10:36] – The importance of nutritional education [12:29] – Gaining more attention [14:04] – The impact of fitness on mental health [15:38] – Introspect and big lifestyle changes [17:54] – Lucy’s advice to breaking addiction [19:45] – Social stigmas and ‘fit-shaming’ from both men and women [21:40] – Accepting a new identity [22:22] – Quick fixes vs lifestyle solutions and rewiring behaviours [26:08] – Dealing with body dysmorphia and internal fears [29:01] – The importance of transforming your mindset [29:49] – Failure to recognise recovery [31:03] – Lucy’s new ‘physical’ music video [32:00] – Life on tour and being physically and mentally present [35:45] – Gender stereotypes in the gym [41:17] – Lucy’s new socially-distanced tour Thanks so much for listening!
