How Can You Fix It If You Don't Know What's Broken?
8/6/2020
In this episode, we're taking another crack at what the definition of lifestyle is and how you can pursue and attain an optimal state of existence.
We get it... we're gym people. Typically confined to the exercise, nutrition, and supplement spaces fitness people need to adapt just as much as the population we're trying to help does.
Once you know the areas in life that need attention (thereby establishing what's broken or busted) we can start to plan on how to evolve in certain areas....

What Is "Health"?
7/31/2020
It’s more than just the absence of disease. It’s more than having a 6-pack, it’s more than being able to run for 60 minutes, it’s more than being “skinny”. True health should incorporate not only the physical, but the mental, and emotional aspects of the individual as well.
In this episode, we discuss how the ever-moving target of health and fitness has evolved over the past decade and for the most part left people confused and focused on “soft targets” that won’t lead to the state of...

Learning How To Compartmentalize Your Nutrition Strategy
7/28/2020
One of the biggest revelations we share with our clients is that "nobody expects you to be perfect".
If fact, it might come as a surprise to many but there is a way to drop the weight and keep it off with a lifestyle approach that lets you eat what you want - when you want. It's all about keeping your "boxes" in check (we'll get into what that means during the show).
In this episode, we're bringing a new way of thinking to the nutrition conversation. The principles aren't rocket science...

Breaking with the COVID routine, Taking the show in a new direction
7/24/2020
In the world we find ourselves in we're spending more and more time away from any semblance of a routine while struggling with the weight gain, the stress, the anxiety, and the fear of what our future holds. In other words "the new norm".
In this show, we discuss some of the challenges we've experienced professionally and personally as we transition to the new way of doing things.
We're also going to give a sneak-peak into the new direction we're taking the show moving forward. It's been a...

We're Not Dead ... Neither Are You.
4/6/2020
You're not dead. Chances are you're not going to die ... not anytime soon anyway. The external world is pushing in on your mind, your spirit, and the ethereal sense of being that we were holding onto before the 'rona changed our world.
That's as bad as it's going to get though. You have to change. We have to change.
You can either try to resist it (and drive yourself crazy) or embrace the opportunity you have and find the silver lining in all of this.

Finding Your Way Through Resolution BS & Managing Expectations
1/17/2020
It's the new year - you may have felt pressured to start a new year fitness program, kick some bad habits, or just get your sh*t together. There are two "waves" of fitness gypsies this time of year, the people that jump into a new "thing" without planning and structure and those that look for something else to do by the middle of January. The second wave people represent the bulk of people that really want to make change in the coming year but have initially chosen an incompatible...

You Are Enough - The "YOU" Graduate Program
11/25/2019
At some point, the training wheels have to come off. No guru, graduate program, certification, mentor, or "coach" can get you to the top. Too many times we rely on the affirmation and guidance of other people and other things to prove to the world our value and worth. Copying someone successful doesn't translate to your success - being different does. Being original. Being confident. Being YOU.

Whether its opposing religious or political views or stirring conflicts with someone's level of fitness, social media trolls are set on making your life HELL. The answer to the problem doesn't start with them however, it's starts with you. Not only your response to their negativity but the level positivity you bring to the world as well.
