The Brad Jensen Show

Pinch me, is this real life? Today's guest was Adam Schafer from Mind Pump. For those not familiar with Mind Pump, it is one of the biggest fitness podcasts in the world. A top 5 downloaded podcast with over 2.5 million downloads per month. It was such an amazing honor to have Adam on the show. There was much value provided in this episode, I would be selling you short trying to summarize it. Trust me, give it a listen! Adam's bio is listed below. Adam Schafer - Mind Pump In the midst of his childhood turmoil, one constant in Adam's life was his love for sports. He was a natural athlete who loved snowboarding, water skiing, basketball and anything else sports related. Adam's love for sports led him down the path of learning about fitness and nutrition. Adam got started with his career in fitness in 2001. As a part of his ongoing quest to learn and grow in his career Adam has obtained certifications from top fitness training institutions including the International Fitness Professionals Association, the National Academy of Sports Medicine, the National Council on Strength and Fitness, and the National Exercise and Sports Trainers Association. Adam also prioritizes his own fitness and worked diligently to become an IFBB Men's Physique Pro which allows him to compete as a professional bodybuilder. Early in his career Adam discovered that he loved to train and teach others. He has worked with over 1,000 people as a trainer and fitness expert and deeply values the lessons he has learned from clients. In addition to training clients one-on-one Adam has also led boot camps, provided nutrition consulting, and helped other trainers improve their sales and leadership skills. Adam has found a way to train and teach even more people through Mind Pump. Adam found that combining his passion and expertise with that of Sal, Justin, and Doug gives him the opportunity to make a big impact on the fitness industry. He hopes to change it for the better and bridge the gap between wellness and performance. Through Mind Pump, Adam wants to offer a media outlet that provides fitness and health education in the most entertaining way possible.

Today's episode was on a cliche subject, yet so incredibly important. Learning how to embrace the process. So many people hear that, but what does that really mean? I shared my personal story of when I finally bought into the process of recovery. How it changed the trajectory of my whole life, and how it all correlates back to ones fitness journey. I am passionate about this subject. The passion bleeds through in this one! Stop running from discomfort and fall in love with the challenges. It's a message I really, really want to get out. Please share this with anyone who resents the process, or any time they "have" to eat healthy. Enjoy!

Today's episode was deep. Our guest was none other than one of the most respected Keto coaches out there, Coach Tara Garrison. What I love about Tara is even though she is an expert in Keto, she is not a zealot with it. She is not dogmatic on any one approach being the best for a client. She educated us on how to properly use Keto, and why throwing in carbs can be such a valuable tool. We also talked about Tara's personal story, which was deep and meaningful, to say the least. Her journey of leaving a religion she was very involved in, her thoughts on plant medicine and redefining herself after having four kids and a divorce. I was absolutely honored to have Tara on the show and I know this one will be worth the hour you spend.

I had a lot of fun recording today's podcast. I had a lot of great questions to answer. I tried to go in depth as much as possible with each and every one. This was a Q & A style podcast and was not only fun, but also very informative. I also touched on my thoughts on the obesity crisis in America, and what we can do to help fix it! Additional Questions covered: Best protein powder? Tips for sober socializing? How to help clients find their "currency" to achieve lasting results? Thoughts on fast acting carbs pre/post workout during an aggressive deficit?

Alycia is someone I have followed for a while now and felt not only excited, but honored to have her on the show. The thing I really love about Alycia is how raw and real she is. She doesn't sugar count anything, and with an industry that has a lot that, she is breath of fresh air. We dove into her story on growing up with a father who was committing white collar crimes. How it changed the trajectory of her life, and the wisdom she learned along the way. We also explored how she got into the industry by getting a degree from THE Ohio State University, to how she now runs her own coaching business! Alycia really knows how to help clients cut through their own BS by deploying the truth to them, yet delivers it with empathy and love. Both her story and her message are very inspiring, enjoy!

Today's podcast was on a subject I have gotten hundreds if not thousands of questions on over the years, MEAL PREP! Today was joined by my co-host and partner in crime, Michelle. Together, we tried to deliver some value around different hacks you can do to help simply your life. People often make meal prep way to big of deal in their head, and get what I like to call paralysis by analysis. It doesn't have to take hours upon hours, or consume your whole day. Going in prepared and with a few simple hacks will make your life much, much easier! Hope you Enjoy!
