The B.rad Podcast

Today’s show will introduce you to the very fit, engaging, and enthusiastic Dr. Andreas Boettcher who has an operation called ItsOnlyHalfTime.com, which is all about aging gracefully and extricating yourself from the disastrous patterns and norms we see around us with accelerated aging, disease, decline, and demise. You’ll enjoy hearing this practical and easy-to-follow discussion—no extreme or controversial statements—this episode is all about how easy it ultimately is to proceed with a pattern of aging gracefully and enjoying healthspan (the quality of life) for as long as possible. You will learn about the three main categories of disease and how to deal with them, his reboot program 7 Simple Shifts in 7 Days, and the inspiring story of the difficult road he was on before arriving at the place he is in today. As you will hear, Dr. Andreas knows from experience that it is truly never too late to turn your life around.   TIMESTAMPS: Aging is inevitable however, how you age is a choice. [03:21] Making the decision to age gracefully and healthfully is easier than most people think. [08:15] The US population is the most medicated nation in the world. [10:51] Doctors can give us medication, but often they don’t talk about lifestyle factors like diet. [17:32] When you do get a medication, does that take you back to optimal health? [19:46] The human body is amazingly beautiful as it is designed to self-heal and self-regulate.  We have lost sight of that. [27:48] Dr. Andreas describes his Seven Simple Shifts for Seven Days to Jumpstart Your Age Defying Journey. [30:06] How can an athlete monitor his training to maximize his or her health span longevity? [35:22] Use fitness as your vehicle to manage stress. [40:39] When making these changes in diet and exercise, it may be uncomfortable at first.  You just have to trust in the process getting you to the other side.  [46:07] Pain pills mask the pain signal between injury and your brain.  Your body cannot then heal itself.  You want to repair the injury, not pacify it.

In part 11 of this series all about optimizing testosterone naturally, we will be discussing how one very important part of our lifestyle affects our hormones. Testosterone is the “social status” hormone (as proven by research outlined in the book Top Dog), but contrary to the popular belief that testosterone levels correspond with aggression and big muscles, it’s actually the inverse—for example, if you think the guy yelling at you in traffic has too much testosterone, he actually has too little, according to Dr. John Gray. In reality, this social status hormone helps you perform in whatever area of interest that you are pursuing peak performance goals. This episode will explain how you can nurture healthy testosterone status by having meaningful pursuits in your career (and in your hobbies too). Dr. John Demartini has talked about the importance of pursuing your inspired purpose in previous shows, and you can start that journey by asking yourself: “What do I do spontaneously everyday that requires no motivation and contributes to a bigger cause and brings me joy?” This is the essence of leading a rich, meaningful, satisfying, and content existence—when you pursue peak performance goals that require preserving through difficult challenges to get better, and this goes hand in hand with optimal testosterone status.    LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad’s Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

How do you balance a passion for ancestral living with pursuing optimal modern peak performance? This episode is all about how you can achieve that balance by utilizing and adapting the ancestral model to modern times while striving for optimization. In this show we will be discussing the benefits, as well as the effects and the necessity of certain elements of the ancestral model—you will hear about my experience with fasting, time-restricted feeding, and low carbohydrate dieting, and why I made the decision to cut these practices out of my life. I also discuss when things like fasting and time-restricted feeding are appropriate and helpful, why my goal now is to perform and recover, perform and recover, and stay fit while staving off the disastrous accelerated decline we sadly see as “normal” these days, and the benefits of taking an “eat more and move more” approach to diet and lifestyle.   TIMESTAMPS: Eric Frohart points out that exercise is the single most potent driver of health and longevity and averting disease risk.  [00:50] A protein-centric diet supports muscle growth, development, and muscle maintenance. [02:57] The hunter-gatherer, by definition, did the bare minimum necessary in order to survive. [05:07] It’s a stress mechanism to kick into ketone manufacturing to replace the glucose that’s not coming from the diet. [10:37] Don’t misinterpret what you hear about the amazing scientific benefits of eating less food or fasting for long periods of time. [14:01] Brad is now getting fully fueled each morning, having changed from his period of morning fasts. [19:18] You may notice when you have those days where you are not eating the normal big meal in the morning, your body temperature cools down in the afternoon because your thyroid turns down the temperature to conserve energy. [28:39] Our biological drives can be destroyed with too much stress in our life. Reproduction, repair, growth, and locomotion are what we need to maintain. [30:46] Go out and find the maximum amount of nutritious calories and move.

It’s time to meet my neighbor, YouTube sensation Thomas DeLauer! Get ready for a truly inspiring and wide-ranging conversation as Thomas shares his deeply personal story, talking about the many challenges he has faced throughout his life—challenges that ultimately led him to the position he is currently in today. Thomas discusses the moment with a stranger that completely changed his life, hot topics like doping and the Liver King controversy, both of our current reflections on restrictive diets, and his personal dietary strategy—a rare occurrence to enjoy since he prefers to be the voice that distills and shares scientific info with others. Enjoy the show!   TIMESTAMPS: Thomas tells of his amazing turn-around from a 300-pound fatty to his popular YouTube site on health and fitness. [01:26] It is not normal to be obsessed about your circumstances. It is important to be authentic about who you are. [07:47] During his high school years, Thomas struggled with a roller coaster existence of eating disorders, and other compulsions. [11:54] As he was piling on excessive weight, he was focused on earning money in his career, ignoring the unhealthy way he was living. [17:07] When his friend noticed Thomas eating his daily dose of tacos, he suddenly realized what he was doing to himself. [20:01] We need to understand how to modulate our athletic activity and understand the reason we are doing it. [27:22] Intermittent fasting worked for Thomas in getting the pounds off. [30:23] Thomas explains water retention and inflammation to explain losing 50 pounds in three months. [34:18] How did Thomas get on magazine covers? [40:01] Every time you take a diuretic or every time you sodium deplete and replete, you rebound although it is not a healthy thing to do. [48:17] Thomas’s current business is explaining and educating what worked for him. Listen to folks who actually walk the walk. [49:44] The doping scene in sports is common but the attitudes about it differ. [54:29] When considering hormone replacement, try all your other possibilities first, then sit with a good practitioner and learn the healthiest way to do it. [01:07:56] The revolving use of restrictive dietary strategies for peak performance works differently for different people’s needs. Remember that it is a stressor. [01:11:58] Do we need more weight loss studies? Should we eat carbs and fats at the same time?

Supplementation can be an important area of testosterone optimization, but it seems ridiculous to try to optimize and fine-tune your ability to produce testosterone naturally through supplementation until you have nailed the big-picture items discussed in previous episodes—like getting optimal sleep, recovery, and downtime.

Get ready for a fantastic show with my good friend Tara Garrison! Tara is an Instagram/fitness sensation and certified personal trainer, nutritionist, and mindset coach who helps high performers and everyday people be their best. In today’s show, Tara shares her incredible and touching backstory in the hopes of inspiring you to join her in the journey she has been on to transform her entire existence. You will hear Tara’s amazing personal story of transformation, starting from her challenging and traumatic childhood and family life, how she found her way and discovered her personal power to become a spiritual and healthy lifestyle guide, and how she lost everything and was forced to forge a new path for herself, all by herself. You will also hear the reflections Tara has learned that will help you check in with yourself and monitor your stress/rest balance, mindset, goals, ego, and reasons for consuming and participating in social media. It is so helpful to hear from someone on this path, especially when you hear Tara continually express her gratitude for so many things in her life that would make most people feel pretty resentful.   TIMESTAMPS: A powerful guide in Tara’s life is intuition. Listen to your body.  You don’t need a strict and rigid schedule. [05:01] Tara went from being overweight and regimented in her diet to finding a more casual approach that brought r6esults she wanted. [11:22] What was the journey Tara took to get to her present state to really unhealthy? It was a trauma response. [13:27] There is much mindset work that you have to do on a journey to getting healthy. [19:30] You learn so much by working with a coach. [24:37] How does one have a real relationship with your body? [27:08] When you are trying to override unhealthy cravings, learn to meditate to educate your body on what is the best thing for how you want to live your life. [31:35] Are you going to choose the old patterns or the new patterns? [36:20] It is hard to make that change from “I should” or “I have to” to “I want to do this for myself.” [40:49] In what way were the plant medicines and alternative health practices a catalyst for Tara? [51:03] Learn to really feel what you are feeling and learn from that what is most helpful to personal growth. [54:41] Guilt is one of the most corrosive emotions.

It’s time for another highlight show! I love getting to hear these interesting excerpts from past interviews, and hopefully hearing these short clips piques your curiosity and inspires you to go back and listen to the entire show. Even if you heard these episodes back when they first aired, I think you will enjoy revisiting previous shows and hearing highlights of some of the great topics we have covered. Enjoy the show!   TIMESTAMPS: Mia Moore and Brad discuss the rationale for eating ancestral style with her own perspective, not necessarily aligned with Brad’s.  [01:17] We are now realizing that the standard western diet has been a widespread dismal failure resulting in the fattest population in the history of humanity.   [06:34] Dave Scott is discussing what he learned about nutrition, especially about carb intake, during his career as a triathlete. [09:01] One should wait 35 to 45 minutes before having coffee in the morning and you can add carbs., according to Dave. [14:11] Instead of saying it’s your passion, consider think of it as you’re pursuing your inspired purpose. [18:20] If you fill your day with very high priority things, it's easy to say no to people. [29:16] Elle Russ explains how she had to take things into her own hands to come to solutions on the treatment of her thyroid problem. She has run into many doctors who were uniformed about thyroid issues. [32:02] If you have any autoimmune disorder, get antibodies down to the lowest levels possible or undetectable. [46:09] Gordo Byrn ties together the importance of fitness, family, and finances. He focuses on the impact of parenting on youth sports.

In part 7 of this ongoing series of breather shows all about how to optimize testosterone naturally, we are talking about avoiding overly stressful workout patterns! This is a particularly important one since there are extreme consequences that come with overdoing it, especially when it comes to sex hormone optimization. As Dr. Herman Pontzer says: “Repair, reproduction, growth, and locomotion are a zero-sum game. Borrow too much from one, and you can compromise the other.” Overtraining is one of the ultimate testosterone killers, so tune in if you want to learn how you can optimize testosterone naturally and achieve a healthy balance with your workout routine.   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad’s Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.
