Do you truly know your “why”? . If someone challenged you on it, would your actions line up with your words, or do you think that maybe, there would be room for you to improve the alignment? . Have you ever asked yourself why that is? If you are living your true “why”, then wouldn’t your actions line up? Could it be that you’re mistaken and you don’t know as much about yourself as you think? . Make sure you listen to this episode to find out. .

Dr. Glenn Livingston   What if you had a disorder and you didn’t even know it? . Dr. Glenn Livingston is a best selling author (600,000 copies sold) of the book “Never Binge Again”. In his book, and in this interview, Dr. Livingston, or Glenn as he asked me to address him, goes into his story of binge eating, how he realized he had a problem, and how he solved it. . Glenn is a fantastic story teller. It is obvious from the moment that the interview starts that he has told this story many times and it’s captivating to listen to it. The strategies that Glenn now helps clients with can help to overcome eating disorders, but they also apply to gaining control over your life in general. Workaholic, fitness crazed, sex addicted, doesn’t matter, Glenn’s strategy works. .

Chris Spigner is an early adopter of the Active Life Methodology. Chris flew to New York from his home in Grand Cayman for our first ever official coach workshop. He was one of sixty coaches in attendance from over 20 states and five countries, and yet, he stood out. . Three years later Chris has become a go to for feedback about all services we offer to coaches through Active Life and because of conversations with Chris, we have done things including but not limited to: Adding private calls to the coach immersion program, adding business and sales training to our coach education programs, and removing our affiliate GPP programming. Yes, you read that right Chris told us it wasn’t any good, and while other coaches did enjoy it, between Chris and some other coaches who we look to for honest feedback, we decided it wasn’t good enough to release. . Chris has also moved the needle forward in his own local community as the founder of Seven Mile Corrective. A program that combine physical therapy, mindset, and fitness to get his clients out of pain without missing the gym. We discuss the corrective program on this podcast. . Chris is on the cusp of making a major name for himself. Listen to this podcast episode and tell everyone you heard of him first. .

Bedro Keuilian is an absolute monster in the group fitness world. . A former personal trainer whose family immigrated from communist Russia when the Berlin Wall fell, Bedros learned from a young age what it meant to struggle. He took the lessons learned in his early life and transformed them into the fitness empire that is Fit Body Boot Camp. . In this interview, Bedros discusses some very vulnerable positions he found himself in and how he was able to use that vulnerability to his advantage. You wouldn’t expect a big, rugged, successful guy like Bedros to remember his former weaknesses so well, but in fact, that’s what makes him who he is today. . This is not the same Bedros interview you have heard on shows like the MFCEO, Impact Theory, or any of the other big podcasts Bedros has been on. This interview goes deep rather than broad and has some incredible, actionable messages that anyone who wants to be more can and should use to expand their personal potential, and MAN UP! .

“I still own my gym, I just don’t work there.” . For those of you out there who own businesses, this should NOT be a crazy thought, but it probably is for many of you. Chris Cooper owns Two Brain business, a company he started when he realized that CrossFit gym owners may be great coaches, but owning a business and being a good entrepreneur was something totally different. . He has coached thousands of people to reach their entrepreneurial mission in life and to have greater impact on others through his methods. In this episode we discuss with Chris what it means to be an entrepreneur, whether you are cut out for it or not, and why being a thief just might be the pinnacle of innovation in business. . This was a truly enjoyable episode to record. We don’t do a deep dive into running a gym business, he has done dozens of podcasts like that. This episode is for those of you out there who want to know what it will take to get you from where you are to where you want to be. .

James Hobart joins us on the Active Life Podcast today! . I can’t lie, I was a bit of a fanboy interviewing James. James has been around the CrossFit scene since 2009, competing, coaching athletes, and coaching coaches. His intentional experience has made James a worthy and valuable ambassador of the CrossFit brand, though unofficially as such in our interview today. . On today’s episode we cover the controversial topic of whether the CrossFit Level 1 seminar is an efficacious course to send people into the world to coach others. We actually don’t disagree on much, and we are left with more questions than answers. . We also talk about what James thinks it means to be a coach. How to #TurnPro at it, and what to do when you get there. Being the coach of coaches I asked James who helps him improve his skills. His answer is telling and you need to consider what it means for you. . Enjoy this interview with the baby face assasin, the fastest thrusters east of the Mississippi, the coach of coaches, James Hobart. .

There was a time when “coach” meant something in the fitness world. Now it seems you can get your title at a weekend workshop. . You are a less effective version of your full time self if you do something part time. There should be no debate about this. It does not matter how much passion you have for a profession, if others share your passion but dedicate all of their energy into being incredible at it, they will be better than you. . The unfortunate landscape we find ourselves in is one where there is an abundance of part time coaching happening at gyms across the country. What makes this worse is that sometimes the part time coaches are the best ones in the building. It is important you understand that this is not only a compliment to the standout part timer, but also an indictment on the industry. . I don’t know about you but I don’t to be operated on by the construction worker who does operations when the full time doc needs time off. I wouldn’t train MMA a few hours a week and expect to beat the guy who trains 30 hours per week in a fight. And I wouldn’t be on my part time self over my full time self. . In this episode I discuss the problems we face and the opportunities for advancement that I see in the effort to professionalize the fitness coach.     REVIEW US!   If you love this podcast , please click HERE to leave a review.
