Diary Of A Big Lad

By: Osborne Road Productions
  • Summary

  • When it comes to self-improvement, Chade O’Brien has seen and tried it all. From fad diets and personal trainers to chasing mystical fitness unicorns. However, after more ups-and-downs in the gym than Arnie’s dumbbells, 2022 saw Chade logging what genuinely worked and sharing his success on social media. This evolved into the 'Diary Of A Big Lad Podcast' – an ordinary 'big lad's guide to fitness, sharing nuggets of wisdom from his journey.


    Join the North's sweatiest man (and his wobbly wingman, Nico) as they tackle a new fitness topic each week, sifting through the myths to discover what truly gets results. They run exercises, experiment with different methods and interview guests on their ongoing quest to not only finding the methods that work the best for them, but helping you hone in on which ones can work for you!

  • Diary Entry - Losing My Gymnasium
    Dec 2 2024

    Send a Message to the Big Lad!

    At the worst possible time (the build up to Christmas), Chade finds himself without a gym! What can he do about it? How will he handle his lose-weight-before-Christmas challenge without the heavy hitting exercise that comes with regular gym visits? Have a listen to find out!

    He's also not learned to put his phone on silent during recording, apologies...

    ‘Diary Of A Big Lad’ is an Osborne Road Production featuring Chade O’Brien and Nico Diodoro. Theme tune written and performed by Jay Stevens.

  • Using S.M.A.R.T Goals To Reimagine Existing Goals
    Nov 25 2024

    Send a Message to the Big Lad!

    This week, Chade assesses his personal challenge (getting to 16 stone, or 224 pounds if you prefer), in 5 weeks and how he used SMART goal setting to calculate if it was actually doable (or in this case, DoaBL). If he fails, he gets no Christmas. This dear listener, is not to be taken lightly (although Chade will be, if he achieves his goal).

    A great listen for anyone who might was to set a similar goal and wants a breakdown of a good pace to do it.

    If you need a bit of an update on SMART goals, here's our previous episode on it. Good times.
