I had a great time recording this podcast prior to moving to Florida with my good friends Mike Ranfone and Ed McKay. It's awesome to have transparent conversations amongst colleagues about changes in the fitness industry, programming, business, and life where so many people see it as this big competition. I hope you enjoy this episode, because it's only going to help others realize, “I could talk to my colleagues about topics like this, and people aren't going to think I'm trying to steal their clients, special programs or anything,” because we’re all in this together.

I brought my hubby back because IFYKYK, and there was something cool that happened last Sunday night. But also, he gives insight as to WHY he isn’t particularly vocal about what he does and with whom, and I have to say it’s hella respectful & one of the many reasons professionals in their industry trust him. From actors, professional athletes, & his local clientele, they all know the humility & selfless attitude that Charlie possesses is a rare trait these days. We followed that conversation up with some of the questions asked on my Instagram stories. I think you’ll enjoy it, and goooo sports team!

Whenever I have longtime friends on my podcast, I struggle to introduce them because I realize just how important they are to me. Alwyn Cosgrove is a household name in the fitness industry. As the owner of Results Fitness and Results University, he also holds the special title as my bridesman. In this episode we had a very open, honest conversation about how the role of a fitness professional has changed with the current state of the world. The skills required to stand out from the crowd aren't things taught in the gym. We talked speaking, program design, pricing yourself what you are worth, and how the coach and client relationship has changed. We wrapped up by talking about how coaches need coaches, and by not wanting to hire someone to overlook your own training/nutrition, it shows you maybe don't believe in your own product. We discuss the importance of that.

My most special guest ever! (No, I am not referring to Josh Brolin aka Thanos in the promo photo). On this episode of the AliDoisWin Podcast: The love of my life!

Who are “they”, anyway? “They say protein causes cancer” “They say coffee is bad” “They say cut carbs to lose weight” People are constantly referring to “they”. We all know that “they” are Netflix documentaries, click bait articles on the #fakenews internet, fitspo accounts with people posing as experts in the nutrition + fitness realm. Enough with “they”! I brought my friend Mike Gorski on the podcast to discuss all the myths and misconceptions that the general public loves to cling to when it comes to nutrition. Mike is both an RD (one who understands athletes) and a strength coach, and I love his honest attitude when it comes to delivering accurate facts. We have some fun telling stories of what we have both been told and what others have said “they” have said. Hope you enjoy!

I brought my good and literally little (but more jacked) brother from another mother Sam Miller on the podcast as he is one of the most intelligent coaches I know when it comes to hormones. Though we could have talked for hours on end on various topics, I wanted to zero in on a massively misunderstood topic: Women's cycle health. There is a lot of controversy out there when it comes to birth control and what a healthy menstrual cycle actually looks like. Sam breaks it down for you in a very simplified and digestible way.

Ever wonder why before surgery people are advised to strengthen certain musculature in order to prepare for their recovery? Yet, we don't often hear about women being advised to prepare for probably the most athletic traumatic event their body will experience in a lifetime: childbirth. Why is that? Ali brought on one of her best friends and pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Heidi Gastler on the show to talk about just that. Heidi goes into great detail about what EXACTLY happens to a woman's vag area during childbirth, the importance of preparing the body for this but also the gravity of "rehabbing" the body post-partum, and even how women who pee during exercise can benefit from some of these same approaches. It is eye opening and insightful information that everyone who plans on having a baby should seek to understand.

Ali and Danny go into a deep dive discussion about some of the most common myths & misconceptions surrounding Testosterone Replacement Therapy, with a big emphasis on the use of estrogen blockers in men, why men need estrogen and how crucial it is to their health and well-being. The candor of this discussion is appreciable since both Danny and Ali are not medical professionals yet surround themselves with the top hormone optimization physicians in the world. I hope you enjoy this discussion as I had a blast interviewing Danny.

Our job as coaches is to help clients actively filter out misinformation from, valuable and productive nutrition, training and lifestyle inputs. We can be considered experts in this area because, also as coaches, we have experimented with extreme dieting, over training and over supplementation. We can save our clients from the ramifications of these fitness and nutrition missteps by sharing our stories with humility and transparency. In this episode, Ali, Ed, and Luke dive into an open and honest conversation about when true health and wellness goals becomes derailed by bad advice and ego. We hope that this episode shows a side of us that proves that all coaches are humans who make mistakes and that our failed attempts at wellness can keep you on the right path to yours.

We hear the word "metabolism" all the time, but what exactly is it? How does it work? Why should we care? We are told it works like a calculator, but it actually works more like a thermostat. It is a barometer for the stresses we bring upon our physiology and that affects our body's ability to burn or store fat. Our metabolism is not a static number, it is constantly adapting and reacting. Ali brings on longtime friend Dr. Jade Teta on the show to discuss ways in which we can toggle the metabolism to make it work in our favor, without having to crash diet or do anything that will yield long term damage. Jade created the concept of the “metabolic toggles” and explains it in such a simplistic way for everyone to understand. This episode is full of awesome gems to take away in regard to how our bodies work

1 in 9 men will get prostate cancer in their lifetime. The good news? It’s not something men will likely die FROM, but will die WITH. I brought my friend Dr Ralph Esposito on the podcast because he is the first person I thought of when addressing everything prostate. November is Men’s Health Awareness Month and a large part of that is prostate related. In this episode Ralph, discusses the truths surrounding the proper testing, diagnosis and treatment when it comes to prostate cancer. Controversial topics such as testosterone and even estrogen therapy, androgen deprivation therapy, questions one should be asking, how many opinions to seek, and why having a high PSA score isn’t always something to stress out about. If you have joined the no shave November movement, if you know someone with prostate cancer or if you are a man, you will benefit from this episode!

If you haven’t been told exactly what you NEED to hear, you haven’t met Thom Plummer. Ali is joined by a special co-host Ed McKay as they discuss how their careers evolved under the guidance of their ever-honest coach. This is an intimate, introspective discussion about where our industry is today, the mistakes many coaches make when it comes to their branding & product delivery, and the honest truth about what it REALLY takes to be a phenomenal coach, especially remotely.

Breast Implant Illness, or BII, is one of the hottest topics in plastic surgery today. The FDA has finally issued a black box warning on breast implants. And now, many women have undergone breast implant removal due to their bodies’ response to them. Ali and her best friend & bridesmaid Jilly Reville are included in those women. Together they tell their story (Jilly for the first time publicly) of what they experienced when they got sick, why they had them removed, and what to be aware of if you are considering breast implants.

Ali and Ed McKay have an in-depth conversation of lessons learned in the last 10 years, the importance of mentors, why it’s okay to be resistant to change at first, but more importantly why you should so you can stay a half step ahead.

Consistency is hard, training is hard. Nutrition is hard. It is all hard, but the application and execution can be made easier when you have the right direction & support. Ben and Ali discuss what they have seen throughout their years in the field, observations they’ve made regarding client success and failures, and how acknowledging that doing something a certain way may not be the best way even though it is what you know to be true. This is a fantastic conversation as it is two friends being open honest and transparent with each other.

To this day, people are advised to avoid eating eggs because of the cholesterol content and put on drugs if their total cholesterol goes over 200. Listen as Dr. Sam Madeira & Ali discuss why this misinformation still circulates, what you REALLY need to be aware of when it comes to cardio metabolic numbers, and why the big scare of testosterone causing heart attacks is false.

Building your physique & health take time. Lots of time spent eating, training, recovering, and monitoring consistently. Ali & Muscle Nerds Founder Luke Leaman discuss the importance of aerobic work for fat loss & fitness, why it is crucial to follow and not modify the program your coach puts together for you, the truth behind online training & Instagram transformations, and what it really takes to become a successful coach. Also, learn the one secret that Luke & Ali have used to handle stress with the scale - you're going to want to use it yourself & with your clients today!

PCOS, Hashimotos, Autoimmune disorders. All terms that conventionally "diagnose" someone with a label that they wear as the rest of their life. What if we told you it didn't have to be that way? What if you didn't have to suffer for as long as you have, at the level that you have? This honest and open conversation with Justin and Ali provides insight into what exactly these medical terms mean, what can be done about them and how the path to healing may be the exact opposite of what you have come to know as true.

There is a lot of misinformation out there surrounding the topic of steroids and PED's (Performance Enhancing Drugs). Specifically what is the definition of each, how is it different from hormone replacement therapy, and how risky is it if someone decides to dabble into that world. Ali hosts renowned coach & world champion powerlifter JL Holdsworth to discuss the raw, uncensored truth surrounding the intricacies of steroids and PEDs. We know there will definitely be a Part 2!
