Podcasts about champion men

2-time NCAA Division 1 Champion Men's Soccer Coach, Mike Noonan, has an unbelievable winning record, consistently transforming teams into champions. Jamie asks Mike to share his method for success which centers around creating a strong shared mission, practicing team values, and recruiting players to a set of standards that speak to the inherent qualities of the players on and off the field. Mike is a lifelong learner and calls himself “a grinder”; he is strong, principled, and kind. Mike's leadership success and principles can be immediately applied to athletics, business, education, or any industry.    During the episode, Jamie and Mike refer to the following work: The Captain Class: A New Theory of Leadership by Sam Walker Growth Mindset by Dr. Carol Dweck Outward Mindset by Arbinger Institute Hit Refresh by Satya Nadella   Executive Access is produced by The Ideal Life, a platform that provides coaching, community, and content for people to grow both personally and professionally.

BenGreenfieldFitness.com/hairgrowth As I was recently reading in a fashion magazine, hair has always been the primary indication of confidence for most men. When you consider that two-thirds of men see hair thinning by the age of thirty-five, and men's hair restoration is a $1.5 billion industry, you began to understand how much confidence is contributed to a man's hair. But why? In a Canadian survey conducted by researcher Rosemary Ricciardelli, men identified hair as being the primary link between their youth and attractiveness. Ricciardelli observed how men with a full head of hair — even the ones who weren't particularly otherwise attractive — go out of their way to bring attention to their hair when meeting someone new. These full-haired men tended to be more relaxed and confident in demeanor when dealing with other individuals because they feel like they represent the standard for the ideal man. Ricciardelli helped prove this theory by asking the participants to physically describe their ideal male figure. All of the participants described men who were clean-cut with a full head of hair. We're unconsciously groomed (pun totally intended) and conditioned (ha!) to think that a healthy man has a full head of hair. But how does this psychologically affect the way men actually feel in their hair? Perhaps a full head of hair reassures them of their healthy biological standing. Maybe the loss of hair reminds men of their mortal vulnerability. Even men with gray hair prefer the color change over balding. Beards also matter, as facial hair is also a key part of men's self-identification. In one study, men with facial hair were considered more aggressive than clean-shaven men. Both men and women found men with facial hair to be more masculine, with a higher social status, than men who were clean-shaven. More interestingly, men who are bald tend to accentuate their facial hair as compensation for balding. With the double whammy of baldness and facial hair, a man's masculine appeal could be through the roof. So, to continue on the topic of hair and beard health in men (and the former in women too) that I visited on my recent podcast with Dr. Cameron Chesnut, I decided to continue to explore the topic of hair optimization. My first guest, Jay Campbell, who first joined me on the podcast "Is Metformin Really Dangerous, Little-Known Peptides For Muscle Gain & Fat Loss, Testosterone Replacement Therapy & Much More!" is a 4x international best selling author, men's physique champion, co-founder of Aseir Custom and founder of the Jay Campbell Brand and Podcast. He is also a a Champion Men's Physique Competitor and the best selling author of the Testosterone Optimization Bible and of The Definitive Testosterone Replacement Therapy Manual: How to Optimize Your Testosterone for Lifelong Health and Happiness. He also wrote a very popular article on my website entitled Testosterone Decoded, Shattering Testosterone Myths (& Everything You Need To Know About Testosterone Optimization Therapy). As a global influencer on health optimization and raising human consciousness, Jay is no-nonsense, authentic, and fearless in his servant mission of leading humanity towards the Golden Age. Since returning from 12 days in The Sacred Valley of Peru, he's recently experienced a profound awareness of the importance of #RaisingTheVibration of humanity to reach planetary consciousness aka unconditional love. J ay also introduced me to the company "Aseir", which he cofounded along with Nick Andrews (see below). Aseir makes a copper peptide GHK-CU and Carbon 60 (C60) (first explored in my epic podcast with Ian Mitchell

These patients were in end-stage renal failure and also obese and diabetic. We must be mindful that correlation does not equate to causation. All of these linked studies show that Lactic Acidosis rarely happens if ever in normal patients population groups. Check them , and .  Elevated plasma metformin concentrations (as occur in individuals with renal impairment) and a secondary event or condition that further disrupts lactate production or clearance (e.g., cirrhosis, sepsis, or hypoperfusion), are typically necessary to cause metformin-associated lactic acidosis (MALA). As these secondary events may be unpredictable and the mortality rate for MALA approaches 50%, metformin has been contraindicated in moderate and severe renal impairment since its FDA approval in patients with normal renal function or mild renal insufficiency to minimize the potential for toxic metformin levels and MALA. However, the reported incidence of lactic acidosis in clinical practice has proved to be very low (

Jay Campbell is a Champion Men’s Physique Competitor, Author, and Entrepreneur. Follow him on Twitter Check out his Website Listen to his Podcast -AND- Read his fat shredding guide: The Metabolic Blowtorch Diet. Motivation Health "I've tried pretty much everything... I've worked with various people on diet and fitness, and I kind of evolved my own diet. It was a version of a fasting diet, but it was also tailored to the unique wants and needs of the individual. Subsequently, I think it was about 2012, maybe 2013, we came up with a version of The Metabolic Blowtorch Diet. I used it with my inner circle... all the way up until we wrote a book on it, which came out at the end of September 2017. " Jay explains his protocol of Intermittent Fasting wherein a person eats a large, high-protein, meal before the fast begins with a period of fasting that lasts about 18-24 hours. Essentially, on weight lifting days the individual needs to eat, and on non-weight lifting days the individual fasts for 18-24 hours, and ideally practices some form of fasted cardio (with that cardio session being LISS, or low intensity-steady state cardio). We talked about the concept of eating a high protein meal prior to a long fast in Episode 106 with J. Wes Ulm. Fitness "The most important thing as we age is to build muscle... Muscle is the greatest deterrent to disease because the more muscle a person has the more metabolically active they are, that also means the more resistant they are to the various diseases of aging. All disease is metabolic in nature... it's a very intricate system internally..." Jay explains that the higher muscle mass a person has, the less insulin resistant they become. Since there are so many diseases with metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance as a primary factor, therefore a higher insulin sensitivity (or less insulin resistance) makes a person more resistant to diseases. For his personal training schedule: currently Jay lifts weights Monday, Wednesday, & Friday, with Tuesday, Thursday, & Saturday being fasting days combined with LISS cardio. Peace of Mind "Honestly, up until 6 years ago my peace of mind was to go to sleep at night... Basically, what I would call peace of mind is doing 'inner work'... however you define it, it's a silencing of the mind, and all of this insanity that we have today from a technology standpoint, from a distraction standpoint, from social media ... As a human being you have to be able to go and separate that, (and) have what you would call 'me time'... a lot of people talk about meditation... it's kind of hard sometimes to go within and settle down. So, for me I do a lot of contemplation... going to a place where I am peaceful and there is no distraction... That, for me normally, is to go out in nature... in commune with Mother Earth... You're essentially connecting with all that is on this planet... depending on your level of belief, and depending on what you do that can consist of anything. For me, it's praying, and I'm in essentially my own conversation with God... I'm not a religious person at all, but I'm just a spiritual person. I believe God is within all of us, and that we all have souls, and by getting in touch with our souls we're on a direct pipeline to God." We talked about the similarities between prayer and meditation before in Episode 101, with RuEl. Adapt & Overcome "The greatest opportunity in life is through contrast and struggle... I've always been a go-getter. I've always been a do-it-yourself person. But, once I started realizing that there were no mistakes, there were no failures, there were no collapses, that everything was a learning experience and an opportunity to be better and to learn from, my entire life changed. I look at that now today, and I always try to work with as many people as I can because I'm all about service to others... That's my whole entire life now... That's really the goal of being here as a human: How many people can you truly help and serve?" May the wind be at your back... We covered so many topics in this episode, and ran out of time before we were halfway through the list. So Jay has agreed to come back at some point down the line for a follow up show to cover more information from his books. Be on the look out for that episode in the future. As always: may the wind be at your back along your journey towards health, fitness, and peace of mind.

Welcome to another expert episode! Today our guest is Jay Campbell.   Jay Campbell is a Champion Men’s Physique Competitor and the bestselling author of ("The Testosterone Optimization Bible”).  In this episode: We’ll go over some of the myths and truths about testosterone, estrogen, and other hormones, according to what the latest science has to say about it.   We start out talking about how a kick to the groin changed Jay’s life when he was just 29, leaving him with deficient testosterone levels. And how he recovered from that and kept playing basketball at a high level while also retaining a successful modelling career (recently appearing on the cover of Iron Man Magazine).   Then we get into the nitty gritty stuff; the practical details and benchmarks for health and hormonal levels. And what diagnostic tests might make sense to do, to find out if this is a problem.  Among other things we find out:  -3 of the most important testosterone-related metrics to keep track of, as a healthy man.  -Who should do their bloodwork. And how often.  -And, if your numbers are bad, what is the one thing… the most important preventive measure you can take?    ====================  Subscribe to Future Skills on: iTunes | Android  | Stitcher | Spotify Join our newsletter for episode summaries and monthly Q&As: www.futureskillspodcast.com  Apply for the Future Skills Program ====================  Contact Jay / get a free copy of his book:  jay@trtrevolution.com  Follow Jay on Social Media: -Twitter,  -Youtube Channel -Email Newsletter.  Hebrew University Study:  https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/sperm-count-dropping-in-western-world/  https://www.timesofisrael.com/israeli-study-sounds-alarm-as-sperm-count-halved-in-western-men/  https://www.cnn.com/2017/07/25/health/sperm-counts-declining-study/index.html  Actual Study  https://academic.oup.com/DocumentLibrary/humupd/PR/dmx022_final.pdf
