Shifting gears a little here.. In this episode it is just myself, Trent, interviewing a very special guest.
Today for the musclecast, I had the distinct pleasure of interviewing multisport athlete Helena Sly – internationally competitive martial artist, turned bodybuilder and coach. In this episode we will discuss her journey from the karate dojo to the WBFF stage, as well as a dive into her own challenging mental health journey over recent years.
We do talk about suicide in this episode, which I know can be distressing. So if you need resources or support go to www.beyondblue.org or for 24 hour free counselling in Australia, the number for Lifeline is 13 11 14, please look after yourself.
Helena Sly is a multi-sport athlete. A dancer tunred internationally competitive martial artist, Helena suffered from severe scoliosis, that resulted in major surgery to fuse her entire spine, bar a few vertebrae. Unphased by the challenges ahead, Helena forged ahead in her karate pursuits across Australia, Europe and Asia, before discovering a love for bodybuilding in her 20s. While competing on the prestigious WBFF stage, Helena has been fighting through her own mental health journey, which she gratefully shared with me today on the Musclecast.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
