The Million Dollar Body Podcast

Want to get lean, healthy, and strong? Then you probably already know that you need to be eating at home more often. This is seriously one of the most beneficial things you can do regardless of what diet you subscribe to. Here's a SUPER easy way that I teach my clients and that has allowed me to be very consistent with my own food for over 6 years. and if you want the exact blueprint for this, check out batchmealprep.com to get the course and the recipe handbook.

Here's Exactly How I Would Lose 30lbs. 1 Gal h20 per day Meal Plan your dinners for the week 7+ hours of sleep per night 3 days weight training 3 days 30/15/3 cardio 10k steps daily Not too bad, right? But also nothing groundbreaking. So here's the thing. Take these activities and GET. THEM. SCHEDULED.The best fat loss tool is your calendar. Use it surgically.

Why does a train at rest only need a little door stopper to keep it in place while a train going 60mph will go through a brick wall? Simple. Momentum. The same applies to our efforts with fat loss. Anyone can put together a 4 day streak, but when the weekend hits and all the sudden we have 17 drinks and 4 burgers from Jack in the Box, there goes our streak, and it takes us another 4 days just to get back in the rhythm. Don't make these mistakes. Take a lesson from thousands of people who have come before you and set your efforts up in order to create hot streaks. When you do that, you'll see the success you want.

IS WORKING OUT TOO MUCH MAKING YOU SKINNY FAT? I hear this a lot (mostly from men) "I've been training 6x per week, doing HIIT classes, working out every day and running after my workouts and the weight isn't coming off!" Because it's obvious, right? If some is good, then more must be better? But there's actually something else at play here - we need to pay attention to CARDIO COMPENSATION.

HOW TO ELIMINATE THE VISCERAL FAT THATS TRYING TO KILL US (and the baby whales ) 1. Give your body a reason to burn fat - if you're always burning sugar, you'll never escape this cycle 2. Keep stress and cortisol low. Are you stressed out of your mind? A new diet or HIIT class isn't going to help out. De-stress and become fat adapted as a FIRST priority and watch how easy weight loss becomes. WANT TO START BECOMING FAT ADAPTED? Join us for the Low Carb Reset starting May 2nd.

Why is a Banana a ROUGH Breakfast? What does this have to do with being a bag boy at a supermarket? How do we eat to "teach" our bodies to burn fat?! So many questions answered on this episode of the MDB Show

Is Carb Backloading the Best Fat Loss Method? Carb backloading is one of the most effective method for fat loss as well as being incredibly sustainable Sure you could lose weight by eating only tilapia and broccoli but the second you stop doing that (because...gross) you gain all the weight back. This simple low carb strategy is incredibly powerful without taking over your whole life.

Tom has never had a job. For the past 44 years, he has owned his own business. Starting from scratch, Tom owned 5 apartment buildings and a hotel BEFORE he graduated from college. Tom owned and operated the second largest nightclub in the State of West Virginia. Tom survived two gun fights, a knife fight, and over 100 serious altercations with bikers trying to kill him in the nightclub business. This led him to learn and master real life combat skills, which he now teaches at https://www.BrutalSelfDefense.com Tom lost $400,000.00 in the nightclub business when the drinking age went from 18 to 21, but he refused to go bankrupt and paid off all his creditors as he recovered from the nightclub loss and started an internationally known entertainment company. This is a guy who has literally "been there, done that". In a world of wannabe YouTube influencers and TikTok stars, Tom is the real deal. In fact, they're making a movie about him on Netflix. Check out the trailer here: https://www.Facebook.com/americanentrepreneurfilm Tom founded the only licensed and dedicated Internet Marketing School in the Country https://www.IMTCVA.org.

In this quick MDB episode I go into detail about how to train to build wide lats that compliment your physique and how most people are actually training the WRONG way. In fact, for the first 8 years of my training career, I did this 100% wrong and wondered why my back development was so minimal. It's not been until the last 2 years or so that I've seen INCREDIBLE progress in how my back looks and performs, without having to add more weight or spend more time at the gym. This simple technique change will make a massive difference for you, ESPECIALLY if you've had a hard time developing the lean, muscular physique of your dreams. This was something I went into detail with with our private coaching clients a few weeks ago, but I think it's going to make a big change in your training, so I wanted to share it with you. And if you want to see the video, simply go to the "Lose Your Gut. Eat More Tacos. Never Track Calories" Facebook community to get the whole experience. https://www.facebook.com/groups/optimalself/posts/2126349170854416/

Have you been telling yourself you'd get back in shape, start a business, or learn a hobby when things "slow down"? That's never going to happen. And that single lie is stealing your time. It will never be the right time. But it doesn't have to be FIND A WAY. OR MAKE ONE.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and really DISLIKED what was looking back at you?

If any of that rings a bit true for you, you're gonna want to check out this episode with Rusty Osborne. Rusty shares his deeply personal story about him hitting rock bottom, and what it ACTUALLY took for him to shake bad habits of eating and drinking huge quantities of food and booze and start pursuing healthy habits that served him and his life. From 85lbs overweight, drinking nightly, and feeling upset about who he was becoming, to being a health coach with a thriving business, a growing podcast, and being able to live his life from anywhere he wants (he did this interview from his van/studio in Tahoe), Rusty is someone you want to learn from.

If you're ready to hear from a top nutrition coach about how to make informed, long-term decisions that have a real impact on your physique and are in line with the lifestyle you want, listen to this talk with Ben Brown! Ben is the owner of BSL Nutrition and I love his approach to fitness. He designed his year-long fitness programs with several important things in mind: ➡️ Data-driven techniques that take people's differences into consideration and not just the generic stuff—he considers things like your environment, your stage of life, your health history, your readiness, and so much more when he designs your program. ➡️ How to empower you to become your own nutrition detective which requires learning what works best for your unique body and then being able to maintain it. ➡️ He factors in bumps in the road. Often shorter programs don't consider life emergencies or unforeseen events and they don't give the process enough time to collect adequate data to make the best decisions.

Blood flow restriction training is a great way to improve muscle tone and strength. BFR training has been used by professional athletes, weightlifters, bodybuilders, power lifters and even Hollywood actors who are looking for that ripped look. BFR training uses pressure cuffs or wraps on the muscles in order to restrict blood flow without cutting off circulation. BFR training has only recently become popular with the general public because of its amazing results! In this interview with Dr. Mike DeBord of B3 Sciences, we go in depth on: How to use BFR Training Who should use Blood Flow Restriction How to get the best use out of your bands What types of bands are best for your results Different types of exercise for different goals How BFR can help with bone density, endurance, insulin resistance, improved healing, and building muscle. BFR training is the perfect way to get that lean, toned look without having to spend hours in the gym! BFR has been proven to increase muscle strength and tone by as much as 20% with only 1-20 minutes of BFR training. Athletes are also able to improve their speed and agility when BFR training because it increases blood flow to the area, as well as causing a "hormonal cascade" of HGH, and IGF1 that can result in improved healing and recovery as well as more muscle and strength. BFR training is a great way to recover from an injury because BFR training can be used on the extremities, but just because you can't "occlude" your back or shoulders doesn't mean you wont get any benefits - the increased amount of HGH and IGF1 will result in noticeable changes throughout the body. BFR has also been proven to increase bone density by up to 15% in just 12 weeks! BFR is so much safer than using heavy weights or other types of resistance exercise for elderly populations, people dealing with Arthritis, or anyone who is looking to get in shape, but has never worked out before.
