Love the new podcasts you've been putting out! Question - if there was either one or a few pieces of information related to diet and training that you could have known in your early years, what would it be? Q2 Nick: How to juggle kids and fitness: newborns, no sleep and finding energy or time to workout? How low can you take calories when you have a slow metabolism? Seems like everyone is doing keto now, why? I feel like the fitness industry has gotten kind of flat, do you think it will bounce back? Do you think whiskey/alcohol has its place in a healthy lifestyle or fitness lifestyle? Q3 Mark: I was wondering if you could address the best muscle-building foods, exercises, and supplements for specific body types? I am classified as an ectomorph and constantly struggle with getting the proper caloric intake with my exercise regime due to my busy work schedule. Q4 Edwin: What would be your no. 1 best advice on how to start your own online coaching business? Q5 Isaac: Wanted to ask how you remain confident in your knowledge in training/nutrition while retaining a sense of humility? This is especially since you get to interact with some of the leading experts in various fields. Phrased differently, how are you confident in what you say regarding training and nutrition, knowing that 'it depends' is often a preceding statement and there is always an expert who has a more refined or more 'correct' answer? Q6 Chris: I'd be curious if you could talk about a how to deal with clients that struggle to stay on task. What strategies do you use to get your coaching clients to adhere to the program when they begin to fall off track? Q7 Calvin: Hi I'm 15 and I workout at home with just a barbell, some weights and a squat and bench rack. I have been doing the Stronglifts 5x5 and was wondering if that is a good workout for building strength and muscle? Thanks.

In this episode, I go over a few tricks I use myself and with my clients to help increase adherence to a fat loss diet. Look, fat loss is hard. It doesn't matter what diet you on are, there comes a point where it becomes a struggle. Cravings, hunger, social events, etc. all make it hard to stay consistent. How you handle the adversity largely determines how successful you are on the diet. The key is to set the diet up in a way to make life easier for yourself. That is what this podcast is all about.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Shawn Baker. Shawn follows a strict carnivore diet where he eats almost exclusively red meat. He has gained a lot of popularity lately after being on Joe Rogan's podcast. I wanted to bring him on the show to ask him some questions. What is the deal with micronutrients and fiber? Why not add in some fruits and vegetables? Can you build muscle/gain strength only eating meat? What are the benefits of red meat vs. other protein sources? This is a fascinating discussion on nutrition! I just ask you listen with an open mind and as always, try to take at least one thing from the episode. Sit back, relax and enjoy!

In this episode, I sit down with Buffalo Bills Linebacker Lorenzo Alexander. This was an awesome show! Lorenzo joined the Bills in 2016 and had a team-high, 12.5 sacks. During that year he made the AFC Pro Bowl where he was named co-MVP. During the show, we talk about: What his offseason training looks like and how it has changed throughout his 12-year career. What he did to lose 75 POUNDS, going from a 315-pound defensive lineman to a 240-pound linebacker. The recovery "keys" to staying healthy and playing NFL football well into your 30s. How he battled adversity early on in his career before finally getting an opportunity for significant playing time on defense in 2016 with the Bills. The importance of being professional, building a good reputation and outworking everyone not only in the NFL but in life.
