In this episode the guys break down the best workout strategy for people who want to lose weight and keep it off — and why most people are going about it completely backwards. They cover why strength training beats cardio for fat loss head to head, how to structure your training as a full body split or 1–2 lifts per day, why compound movements are the only ones that matter at this stage, hitting 8,000 steps through lifestyle rather than scheduled cardio, and simple diet steps that create a natural calorie deficit without counting calories.

The Lonely Triathlete - triathlon training and motivation for the masses
This year, if you could perform one behavior over and over (that you aren't currently doing) that you think would most positively impact your triathlon performance, what would that be? It would be a powerful habit, is what I think!Come join our community at www.patreon.com/thelonelytriathleteTRANSCRIPTToday I want to talk about something that might be more important than your training plan, more important than your latest piece of gear, and maybe even more important than your motivation.I want to talk about habits.Because if you've been in this sport long enough, you've probably noticed something.The athletes who succeed year after year aren't necessarily the most talented.They aren't always the fastest.They aren't always the most motivated.They're often just the ones with the best habits.And that's because habits do something incredibly valuable.They reduce the number of decisions we have to make.Every decision requires energy.Should I go to bed now or watch one more episode?Should I do my workout before work or after work?Should I eat the apple or the doughnut?Should I stretch?Should I hydrate?Should I foam roll?Should I prepare tomorrow's workout?If every one of those actions requires a fresh decision every day, eventually decision fatigue wins.Life gets busy.Work gets stressful.The kids need something.The weather is lousy.And suddenly all those good intentions disappear.But habits are different.Habits automate behavior.When something becomes a habit, we stop negotiating with ourselves.We simply do it.And that's where long-term performance gains come from.Not heroic efforts.Not occasional bursts of motivation.Consistency.The compound interest of athletic performance.So today I want to walk through some of the most valuable habits a triathlete can build.Not workouts.Not race strategies.Habits.The small recurring actions that quietly improve performance over time.Before we get into the specific habits that improve performance, I want to share something.For a long time, I wrestled with the whole idea of habits.They sounded boring.They sounded restrictive.I like spontaneity.I like making decisions off the cuff.I like the feeling that I'm in control of my time and free to do whatever I want in a given moment.For years, I looked at highly structured routines and thought, "That doesn't sound like a very interesting way to live."I thought habits would make life feel scripted.Like I was following a checklist instead of actually living.But over time, I came to realize a couple of things.The first was that finding an effective action and repeating it over and over again is incredibly productive.Far more productive than constantly making mistakes and trying to reinvent the wheel.Think about triathlon training.Once you discover a workout structure that works, you don't throw it away and invent an entirely new training philosophy every Tuesday.You repeat what works.You build on it.You let consistency create results.So why wouldn't the same principle apply to sleep, nutrition, recovery, and the rest of life?The second realization was even more important.I discovered that I was already living a life full of habits.I just wasn't calling them habits.I showered at roughly the same time every morning.I ate many of the same breakfasts.I arrived at work at roughly the same time.I watched many of the same television shows.I read many of the same types of books.I followed dozens of patterns every single day without even thinking about them.In other words, habits weren't something I needed to add to my life.They were already there.The difference was that most of them had developed unconsciously.And that's when the light bulb went on.If habits already exist in my life, why not examine them?Why not identify which ones are helping me and which ones are holding me back?Why not intentionally select the habits that support my goals?Why not add the ones that are missing?Instead of letting habits happen by accident, why not consciously design them?That's when habits stopped feeling restrictive to me.They started feeling empowering.Because habits aren't really about removing freedom.They're about using today's decisions to make tomorrow easier.And for endurance athletes, that's a pretty powerful advantage.Sleep HabitsLet's start with the foundation.Sleep.I know.Sleep isn't exciting.Nobody posts screenshots of their bedtime on social media.But if there was a legal performance-enhancing drug available to every athlete, sleep would probably be it.The problem is that many athletes treat sleep like whatever time is left over after everything else is done.Instead, high-performing athletes often reverse the equation.Sleep comes first.Everything else fits around it.One habit that can dramatically improve sleep quality is having a consistent bedtime.Not just on weekdays.Every day.Your body loves routine.Going to bed at roughly the same time each night trains your body to expect sleep.Another powerful habit is reducing screen time before bed.I'm not perfect at this one.In fact, I suspect many of us are not.But we all know the difference between drifting off peacefully and scrolling through social media until midnight.A third habit is preparing for tomorrow before going to bed.Lay out your workout clothes.Charge your watch.Fill your water bottle.When you wake up, there is less friction between you and the workout.And less friction means more consistency.Training HabitsNow let's talk about training.Most athletes focus on the big sessions.The long ride.The key run.The hard intervals.But the athletes who improve year after year tend to have strong training habits.One of the best habits is simply protecting training time.Treating workouts like appointments.We don't skip dentist appointments because we don't feel like going.We shouldn't casually skip important workouts either.Another habit is beginning workouts at a consistent time whenever possible.If you always run at 6:00 AM, eventually your brain stops debating whether you're going.It's just what you do.The same way brushing your teeth is what you do.One habit I've come to appreciate is tracking workouts immediately after completion.A few notes.How did it feel?What worked?What didn't?Those little observations accumulate over months and years.They help us become smarter athletes.And perhaps the most important training habit of all:Show up on the days you don't feel like it.Not every workout needs to be amazing.Sometimes success is simply putting on the shoes and starting.Many workouts that begin reluctantly end up being perfectly fine.Recovery HabitsRecovery is where a lot of age-group athletes leave performance on the table.We spend hours thinking about training.Minutes thinking about recovery.Yet recovery is where adaptation actually happens.One valuable habit is doing a short recovery routine immediately after training.Not someday later.Immediately.Five minutes.Stretching.Foam rolling.Walking.Whatever works for you.The key is consistency.Another habit is paying attention to recovery markers.How's your energy?How's your mood?How's your motivation?How's your resting heart rate?How are you sleeping?Elite athletes monitor recovery because they understand that training stress only creates improvement if recovery keeps pace.One recovery habit I've become a fan of is scheduling recovery before you think you need it.Not after you're exhausted.Before.Because once fatigue becomes obvious, you've often been accumulating it for quite some time.Nutrition HabitsNow let's move to nutrition.If you're anything like me, you may have spent years looking for nutrition secrets.But most successful athletes aren't relying on secrets.They're relying on habits.For example, having a protein-rich breakfast.Hydrating first thing in the morning.Bringing healthy snacks to work.Eating vegetables with most meals.None of these habits are revolutionary.But together they become powerful.One nutrition habit that made a huge difference for me was becoming more aware of evening snacking.It's amazing how many calories can sneak in between dinner and bedtime.A handful of chips becomes a bowl.A bowl becomes several hundred calories.And suddenly we're wondering why training isn't producing the body composition changes we expected.Another critical habit is fueling workouts properly.Especially longer sessions.Many athletes train hard but under-fuel.Then wonder why performance stalls.Consistent fueling is a habit.Just like consistent hydration.And just like recovery.The Habit That Connects EverythingThere's one habit that may be more important than any other.Planning.Every successful athlete I know plans.Maybe not obsessively.But intentionally.They know when they're training.They know what they're eating.They know where recovery fits into the week.They don't leave important behaviors to chance.Because chance is usually where inconsistency lives.A few minutes of planning each week can eliminate dozens of decisions.And remember, every decision you eliminate preserves mental energy.How Do We Identify the Right Habits?So how do we decide which habits to build?Here's a simple question.What behavior, if repeated consistently for the next year, would have the biggest positive impact on my performance?Notice I didn't say biggest workout.I said behavior.Maybe it's going to bed 30 minutes earlier.Maybe it's drinking more water.Maybe it's strength training twice a week.Maybe it's eliminating late-night snacking.The best habit is often not the most impressive one.It's the one that addresses your biggest weakness.And it's the one you're actually willing to do.How Do We Turn Behaviors Into Habits?The mistake many athletes make is trying to change everything at once.More training.Better nutrition.Earlier bedtime.Daily stretching.Strength training.Meditation.Hydration.Reading.Journaling.By next Tuesday they're exhausted.So, start small. Ridiculously small.If you want to stretch more, start with five minutes.If you want to improve sleep, move bedtime earlier by fifteen minutes.If you want to hydrate better, put a water bottle where you'll see it.Make the habit easy.Attach it to something you already do.This is called habit stacking.After I brush my teeth, I stretch for five minutes.After I finish a workout, I drink a recovery shake.After dinner, I prepare tomorrow's training gear.The more automatic the sequence becomes, the less motivation is required.And that's the goal.Because motivation comes and goes.Habits stay.Closing ThoughtsAs triathletes, we spend a lot of time chasing breakthroughs.The perfect workout.The perfect race.The perfect piece of equipment.But most breakthroughs aren't dramatic.They're quiet.They're the result of hundreds of small actions repeated over and over again.A consistent bedtime.A prepared water bottle.A planned workout.A healthy snack.Five minutes of stretching.Nothing spectacular on its own.But together?They create the athlete you become.So this week, don't ask yourself what huge change you need to make.Ask yourself:What's one habit that future me will be grateful I started today?Build that habit.Protect it.Repeat it.And then let consistency do what consistency always does.Compound.

In this episode of Control and Compound, Darrenl and Christina use a simple desert island story to explain one of the most important wealth-building lessons most people never learn.

And why does controlling capital often matter more than working harder, earning more, or finding the perfect investment? Through the story of Fisherman Frank and Banker Bob, you'll discover how liquidity, access to capital, financing, and uninterrupted compounding can dramatically change financial outcomes over time. Topics discussed: • Why banks become so profitable • The difference between producing wealth and controlling capital • How liquidity creates financial resilience • Lessons from recessions, market crashes, and economic downturns • Infinite Banking and the concept of becoming your own banker • Building multi-generational wealth • Why wealthy families think differently about money If you want to understand how money really works and why some people seem to get ahead regardless of economic conditions, this episode is for you. #InfiniteBanking #WealthBuilding #PersonalFinance #ControlAndCompound #FinancialEducation Show notes: 00:00 - Introduction 01:24 - Welcome to the Desert Island Economy 03:20 - How Specialization Creates Wealth 04:22 - The Problem Every Economy Faces 05:31 - Enter The Banker 07:51 - Fisherman Frank vs Banker Bob 09:30 - The Real Source of Wealth 11:48 - Becoming Your Own Banker 14:15 - Financing Growth Differently 16:16 - Why Liquidity Matters 18:18 - Building Family Wealth 20:09 - Why Banks Always Win FIND US ON: INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/controlandcompound TIKTOK: https://www.tiktok.com/@controlandcompound?lang=en LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/company/darren-mitchell-associates-inc/?viewAsMember=true BOOK A CALL WITH US NOW: https://www.controlandcompound.com/contact-us

had developed unconsciously.And that's when the light bulb went on.If habits already exist in my life, why not examine them?Why not identify which ones are helping me and which ones are holding me back?Why not intentionally select the habits that support my goals?Why not add the ones that are missing?Instead of letting habits happen by accident, why not consciously design them?That's when habits stopped feeling restrictive to me.They started feeling empowering.Because habits aren't really about removing freedom.They're about using today's decisions to make tomorrow easier.And for endurance athletes, that's a pretty powerful advantage.Sleep HabitsLet's start with the foundation.Sleep.I know.Sleep isn't exciting.Nobody posts screenshots of their bedtime on social media.But if there was a legal performance-enhancing drug available to every athlete, sleep would probably be it.The problem is that many athletes treat sleep like whatever time is left over after everything else is done.Instead, high-performing athletes often reverse the equation.Sleep comes first.Everything else fits around it.One habit that can dramatically improve sleep quality is having a consistent bedtime.Not just on weekdays.Every day.Your body loves routine.Going to bed at roughly the same time each night trains your body to expect sleep.Another powerful habit is reducing screen time before bed.I'm not perfect at this one.In fact, I suspect many of us are not.But we all know the difference between drifting off peacefully and scrolling through social media until midnight.A third habit is preparing for tomorrow before going to bed.Lay out your workout clothes.Charge your watch.Fill your water bottle.When you wake up, there is less friction between you and the workout.And less friction means more consistency.Training HabitsNow let's talk about training.Most athletes focus on the big sessions.The long ride.The key run.The hard intervals.But the athletes who improve year after year tend to have strong training habits.One of the best habits is simply protecting training time.Treating workouts like appointments.We don't skip dentist appointments because we don't feel like going.We shouldn't casually skip important workouts either.Another habit is beginning workouts at a consistent time whenever possible.If you always run at 6:00 AM, eventually your brain stops debating whether you're going.It's just what you do.The same way brushing your teeth is what you do.One habit I've come to appreciate is tracking workouts immediately after completion.A few notes.How did it feel?What worked?What didn't?Those little observations accumulate over months and years.They help us become smarter athletes.And perhaps the most important training habit of all:Show up on the days you don't feel like it.Not every workout needs to be amazing.Sometimes success is simply putting on the shoes and starting.Many workouts that begin reluctantly end up being perfectly fine.Recovery HabitsRecovery is where a lot of age-group athletes leave performance on the table.We spend hours thinking about training.Minutes thinking about recovery.Yet recovery is where adaptation actually happens.One valuable habit is doing a short recovery routine immediately after training.Not someday later.Immediately.Five minutes.Stretching.Foam rolling.Walking.Whatever works for you.The key is consistency.Another habit is paying attention to recovery markers.How's your energy?How's your mood?How's your motivation?How's your resting heart rate?How are you sleeping?Elite athletes monitor recovery because they understand that training stress only creates improvement if recovery keeps pace.One recovery habit I've become a fan of is scheduling recovery before you think you need it.Not after you're exhausted.Before.Because once fatigue becomes obvious, you've often been accumulating it for quite some time.Nutrition HabitsNow let's move to nutrition.If you're anything like me, you may have spent years looking for nutrition secrets.But most successful athletes aren't relying on secrets.They're relying on habits.For example, having a protein-rich breakfast.Hydrating first thing in the morning.Bringing healthy snacks to work.Eating vegetables with most meals.None of these habits are revolutionary.But together they become powerful.One nutrition habit that made a huge difference for me was becoming more aware of evening snacking.It's amazing how many calories can sneak in between dinner and bedtime.A handful of chips becomes a bowl.A bowl becomes several hundred calories.And suddenly we're wondering why training isn't producing the body composition changes we expected.Another critical habit is fueling workouts properly.Especially longer sessions.Many athletes train hard but under-fuel.Then wonder why performance stalls.Consistent fueling is a habit.Just like consistent hydration.And just like recovery.The Habit That Connects EverythingThere's one habit that may be more important than any other.Planning.Every successful athlete I know plans.Maybe not obsessively.But intentionally.They know when they're training.They know what they're eating.They know where recovery fits into the week.They don't leave important behaviors to chance.Because chance is usually where inconsistency lives.A few minutes of planning each week can eliminate dozens of decisions.And remember, every decision you eliminate preserves mental energy.How Do We Identify the Right Habits?So how do we decide which habits to build?Here's a simple question.What behavior, if repeated consistently for the next year, would have the biggest positive impact on my performance?Notice I didn't say biggest workout.I said behavior.Maybe it's going to bed 30 minutes earlier.Maybe it's drinking more water.Maybe it's strength training twice a week.Maybe it's eliminating late-night snacking.The best habit is often not the most impressive one.It's the one that addresses your biggest weakness.And it's the one you're actually willing to do.How Do We Turn Behaviors Into Habits?The mistake many athletes make is trying to change everything at once.More training.Better nutrition.Earlier bedtime.Daily stretching.Strength training.Meditation.Hydration.Reading.Journaling.By next Tuesday they're exhausted.So, start small. Ridiculously small.If you want to stretch more, start with five minutes.If you want to improve sleep, move bedtime earlier by fifteen minutes.If you want to hydrate better, put a water bottle where you'll see it.Make the habit easy.Attach it to something you already do.This is called habit stacking.After I brush my teeth, I stretch for five minutes.After I finish a workout, I drink a recovery shake.After dinner, I prepare tomorrow's training gear.The more automatic the sequence becomes, the less motivation is required.And that's the goal.Because motivation comes and goes.Habits stay.Closing ThoughtsAs triathletes, we spend a lot of time chasing breakthroughs.The perfect workout.The perfect race.The perfect piece of equipment.But most breakthroughs aren't dramatic.They're quiet.They're the result of hundreds of small actions repeated over and over again.A consistent bedtime.A prepared water bottle.A planned workout.A healthy snack.Five minutes of stretching.Nothing spectacular on its own.But together?They create the athlete you become.So this week, don't ask yourself what huge change you need to make.Ask yourself:What's one habit that future me will be grateful I started today?Build that habit.Protect it.Repeat it.And then let consistency do what consistency always does.Compound.

Reid sits down with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella fresh off Microsoft Build 2026. The conversation goes wide: how AI is reshaping work, business, and society—and why the transformation sweeping through software development today is only a preview of what's coming for all knowledge work. Satya makes the case that human capital and "token capital" are now deeply intertwined, that companies—not just countries—must build their own AI capabilities, and that the organizations best positioned to thrive are those that can leverage their unique expertise inside intelligent systems. Reid and Satya also explore Microsoft's enterprise AI vision, Reid's work with Manas on AI-powered scientific discovery, lessons from past technological revolutions, and why demonstrating real, tangible benefits may be the most important thing the industry can do to earn—and keep—the public's trust.

Josh Duhamel is an American actor, producer, and entrepreneur born and raised in Minot, North Dakota, where a blue-collar upbringing instilled a strong work ethic. He played backup quarterback at Minot State University and majored in biology with plans for dentistry, but dropped out shy of graduation (later finishing in 2005). He headed west, fell into modeling, and won IMTA Male Model of the Year in 1997, exposure that led to the role of Leo du Pres on *All My Children* (1999–2002) and a 2002 Daytime Emmy. From there he built a mainstream career across TV and film, including *Las Vegas* and the *Transformers* franchise. He had no Hollywood connections, just a small-town guy who caught a break and worked his way up. Still active in film and TV, Duhamel has deliberately stepped back from constant Hollywood life, spending more time on his land in North Dakota and speaking openly about never fully fitting in: "I missed the simplicity of who I really am." Beyond acting, he founded GATLAN, a concierge health-optimization company built around his own experience with hormone therapy, which expanded into women's health in spring 2026. Raised Catholic, he favors a grounded lifestyle focused on health and aging well, and embraced entrepreneurship later in life. He's a father of three: sons Axl (with ex-wife Fergie) and Shepherd, and daughter Rocca, born May 2026 with wife Audra Mari, with family at the center of how he spends his time.

What if the conversations your team isn't having are costing you more than the ones it is? In this episode of the Balancing Act podcast, Andy speaks with Gustavo Razzetti — culture change instigator, CEO of Fearless Culture, and bestselling author of Remote, Not Distant, Stretch for Change, and his new book Forward Talk: The Bold New Method For Getting Teams Unstuck. Gustavo introduces the concept of conversational debt — the compound cost of the conversations teams avoid — and unpacks the three destructive patterns that keep teams trapped: avoidance, blame, and groupthink. He explains why the corporate obsession with psychological safety has become a bandage for deeper issues, and why getting unstuck isn't about better meetings — it's about better conversations. Tune in to episode 248 to hear Gustavo's rocket-booster moment about a CEO who chose to trust his team before taking the client's side, two mentorship moments — one for the CHRO investing in change capabilities, one for the CEO who just wants his teams to "get along" — and his closing reflection on the pointlessness paradox that quietly drains team performance.

Celebrating my 50TH EPISODE with you! Thanks for We often look for the big moment: the win, the goal, the perfect game, the selection, the breakthrough.But what builds an athlete is not the big moment, it is what happens before it: the small repetitions, the invisible work, the habits, the recovery, the self-talk, the response after mistakes, and the way we keep showing up when the result is not visible yet.In this we celebrate the power of the compound effect in sport, parenting, and life. Compound means that what we repeat grows, and this is valid both ways: confidence can grow, but doubt can grow too. Discipline can grow, but excuses can grow too. Trust can grow, but pressure can grow too.This episode explores three simple but powerful questions for athletes, parents, and coaches:1) What am I repeating every day?2) Is what I repeat building me or limiting me?3) Who am I becoming because of it?Because mental training is not only about performing better in the big game. It is about building the person behind the performer, one choice, one habit, one reset, and one conversation at a time, till they become habits.In this episode, we talk about:How small repetitions shape confidence, trust, and identity.Why confidence is built before the pressure moment, not during it.How athletes may compound doubt, excuses, frustration, or pressure without realizing it.Why parents also compound the emotional environment around sport through repeated questions, reactions, and car-ride conversations.How sport becomes a laboratory for life when we focus not only on results, but on who the athlete is becoming.What you repeat, you become.Want to know more and build your new identity?

Josh Brown and Michael Batnick on Ritholtz, Authenticity, and Why Risk Finds a WayWhat began as a funny observation from Boyar Value Group founder Mark Boyar — that Josh Brown and Michael Batnick are “the Howard Stern of financial podcasting” — turned out to be a pretty good way into the real story.Josh and Michael built an audience by being candid, irreverent, and willing to say things much of traditional Wall Street would rather leave unsaid.

Super El Nino global impacts around the world; panic on compound disasters; data farm madness kills the renewable revolution. All three this week on Radio Ecoshock.
Most of the mushroom supplements you'll find on Amazon are ground-up fruiting bodies or myceliated grain in a capsule. AHCC is something entirely different. It's a patented fermented extract from shiitake mycelia that has been used in over 1,000 cancer clinics worldwide, backed by more than 100 published studies, and studied specifically for its effects on natural killer cells, HPV clearance, autoimmune conditions, and liver disease. I'd never heard of it until Mimi Lindquist introduced me to it. Lindquist is the co-founder of The Medicine alongside her husband, Chase. She started as a clinical dental hygienist in Seattle, where she observed firsthand how oral health mirrors systemic health, and eventually followed a thread from a patient's HPV recovery all the way to a research compound developed at the University of Tokyo in 1986. In this episode, Lindquist explains what AHCC actually is, how its manufacturing process makes it fundamentally different from any other mushroom product on the market, and why the clinical research behind it is unusually robust for a supplement. The mechanism that makes AHCC interesting is that it doesn't just boost the immune system indiscriminately. It modulates it. For healthy individuals with normal NK cell counts, it doesn't artificially raise them. For people dealing with HPV, cancerous tumors, or autoimmune conditions where the immune system needs more information, it does. This adaptogenic quality is why AHCC can support both an overactive immune response (as in autoimmune) and an underactive one (as in immune suppression from chronic illness or aging) without contradicting itself. I pushed back on this in the conversation because AHCC is a processed product that requires industrial manufacturing to produce, which doesn't fit neatly into an ancestral framework. Lindquist's response was honest: if we were living 100 years ago without microplastics, glyphosate in the rain, and the chronic stress loads of modern life, we probably wouldn't need it. But that's not the world we live in, and the thousands of testimonials she's received from people who had tried everything else and found relief with AHCC are hard to dismiss.

Modern marketing is changing faster than many brands are prepared for. Multicultural, multigenerational, and other underrepresented communities are increasingly driving category growth — yet many brands are still using outdated marketing playbooks that weren't built to serve those customers well. In this episode, Sonia Thompson introduces the Growth Readiness Map — a modern marketing framework designed to help brands identify where they are today, why some brands see growth compound while others fall behind, and what foundational work needs to happen before identity-relevant growth can scale successfully. You'll learn: The difference between general-market and identity-relevant marketing Why many brands are activating before they're organizationally ready The four stages of the Growth Readiness Map: Default, Build, Gamble, and Compounding Why some brands build trust with growth communities — while others create friction without realizing it How customer friction quietly limits growth, loyalty, and marketing ROI Why the most important growth work often happens behind the scenes before campaigns ever launch How modern brands can build the trust and customer intimacy required for sustained, compounding growth This episode is for CMOs, brand leaders, growth marketers, agency leaders, and business strategists trying to understand what modern marketing actually requires in a market increasingly shaped by growth communities. Because the brands that win aren't just doing more marketing. They're doing the right work in the right order. Get in touch with Sonia: sonia@soniaethompson.com
