Strength Is FreedomWhat do you want to still be able to do 10, 20 or 30 years from now?Travel. Garden. Play pickleball. Carry your grandchildren. Get off the floor without help. Keep doing the things that make your life yours.In this episode of the NHA Today Podcast, Dr. Stephan Esser sits down with physical therapist and world champion weightlifter Jen Dieter to talk about building strength for the life you want to keep living.Jen is the founder and lead clinician of REAL Movement Physical Therapy, an 11-time CrossFit Games qualifier, five-time world record holder in Olympic weightlifting and two-time World Champion. But her message is not just for athletes. Jen did not begin CrossFit and weight training until she was 38, after years without intentional exercise.She explains why muscle is an investment in your future and why strength training, balance, quick footwork and functional movement matter more as we age.Most importantly, Jen encourages listeners to think beyond the scale or the mirror. Ask yourself what you want your body to be able to do years from now, then start training for that life today.In This EpisodeWhy muscle is an investment in your futureWhy it is never too late to get strongerWhat functional strength really meansHow balance and quick footwork support real-life movementWhy fear of injury can lead to lost functionHow to start strength training if you are new to itWhy fitness goals should go beyond weight and appearanceJen leaves listeners with three practical places to start: lift something that feels heavy for you two or three times a week, give your cardiovascular exercise a purpose and test what your body can actually do.About Jen DieterJen Dieter, MPT is the founder and lead clinician of REAL Movement Physical Therapy. She has spent 28 years helping people move beyond pain and return to the activities they love.REAL Movement Physical Therapy:http://www.realmovementphysicaltherapy.comInstagram:@jensmash13About Dr. Stephan EsserDr. Stephan Esser is a board-certified physician specializing in sports medicine and lifestyle medicine and the host of the NHA Today Podcast.Connect with the National Health AssociationJoin the NHA:https://membership.healthscience.org/join-membership?Learn more:https://healthscience.orgUpcoming events:https://healthscience.org/events/

High Fives. Good Vibes.
How do you build opportunities in your practice before you know whether showing up will actually pay off? Dr. Lona and Dr. Andrew explore why some of the most valuable practice growth happens when you keep showing up in service before the outcome is obvious. From community outreach and building professional relationships to developing certainty and learning how to communicate chiropractic simply, they look at what happens when you stop measuring every effort by its immediate return. The work that feels unproductive today may be building trust, skill, relationships, and opportunities you cannot see yet. Consistently showing up with something useful to offer gives both you and your practice the chance to grow into opportunities that rarely appear overnight.Key Highlights01:25 – What younger chiropractors may miss when they look at someone further down the road and only see the finished result.04:21 – The less glamorous beginning behind an opportunity that eventually led to working with some of the world's top CrossFit athletes.07:09 – A simple reminder about why the place you start rarely looks like the place you ultimately want to end up.09:00 – Learning to show up before you feel ready and recognizing that same quality in the people around you.10:24 – Why continuing to serve in the schools mattered even when staying at the practice would have felt far more productive.12:00 – The connection between being of service and the opportunities that begin to appear when that remains the reason you show up.13:27 – Where certainty starts to develop when a young chiropractor is still wondering whether their own chiropractic actually works.15:26 – How community involvement can build familiarity and trust before anyone ever decides to become your patient.18:20 – An unexpected lesson from explaining chiropractic to four- and five-year-olds that changed the way one doctor communicates with adults.Resources MentionedLearn more about the TRP Remarkable Practice Immersion - Nov 13 - 14, 2026 in Adelaide, AUS - https://theremarkablepractice.com/upcoming-events/ To schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Lona: https://go.oncehub.com/DrLonaBuildPodcastTo schedule a Strategy Session with Dr Bobby: https://go.oncehub.com/DrBobbyBuildPodcastLearn more about the Remarkable CEO Podcast: https://theremarkablepractice.com/podcast
You're doing the same workouts, eating the same way, but suddenly nothing is working. Your body composition is shifting, you're more tired, and you're wondering if your body is just . . . broken. It's not. It's changing. In this session, fitness and nutrition coach Amber Brueseke breaks down exactly what's happening hormonally during perimenopause and why the exercise approach that worked in your 30s is working differently now. She shares the one shift that changes everything (hint: it's not more cardio), a bare-minimum workout plan that takes just 1 hour and 40 minutes a week, and the truth about cortisol, HIIT, and weight gain that social media keeps getting wrong. If you're approaching midlife--or are already there--this conversation will replace fear with a plan.

It's been three years since Leka Fineman last joined the show — and in that time she won the CrossFit Games at 56, retired from competition, took up surfing for the first time in her 50s, started menopause hormone therapy (including testosterone), and lost her partner to cancer just seven months ago. Leka pulls back the curtain on the “identity grief” she experienced after working so hard to meet her goals and so hard to take care of her partner that she no longer knew who she was when it was all over. Physically and emotionally drained, Leka looked past her usual pursuits and turned to yoga, equine therapy, and a community of surfer women to pull her through. She shares what her hormone therapy journey has looked like, how she fuels and trains now compared to her competitive days, and how turning 60 this October is inspiring her to quiet her mind, connect with her inner self, and embrace what comes next.Leka Fineman is a health, wellness, and mindset coach, CrossFit Games champion, and lifelong athlete based in Southern California. A three-time CrossFit competitor turned five-time CrossFit Games athlete, she won the world title at age 56 before retiring from competition to focus on coaching, surfing, and yoga. Leka works with clients on strength, nutrition, and mindset — building personalized plans that help people identify their motivation and values, and using meditation, visualization, and breathwork to help them show up from a strong, calm center in any part of life. Since stepping away from competitive CrossFit, she's become an avid surfer, a certified yoga teacher, and an equine-therapy volunteer, and she continues to coach women on strength training, hormone health, and midlife reinvention.

No guest this week—just the three of us circling the wagons.In our first hosts-only episode of Through the Grapevine, we take a little time to catch up, reflect, and talk through some of the things we've been seeing in our industries and around the Livermore Valley.We start locally with a question that's been hard to ignore lately: How many pizza and ice cream shops can one town have? Beyond the jokes, it opens up a larger conversation about small business, hospitality, what consumers are asking for, and what a growing collection of similar concepts might tell us about where the industry is headed.Matt shares some reflections from traveling around the country and getting the opportunity to sit at the table with peers and colleagues in the CrossFit industry as a subject matter expert. We talk about what a privilege those invitations can be—and the years of work, relationships, experience, and credibility that often happen long before someone gets the call.Jeremy also gets candid about the Tri-Valley. He's always been one of the region's biggest advocates, but advocacy doesn't mean you can't be frustrated. We talk about why greater collaboration across events, marketing, hospitality, tourism, and our overall regional ethos matters—and why sometimes being invested in a place means being willing to challenge it to be better.And finally, we look back on our first Sunday Supper at Wingen Bakery & Restaurant. Jeremy shares some thoughts on what went right, what the night meant, and plenty of gratitude for everyone who helped bring it to life. And yes… we're already looking toward January for the next one.No featured guest. No single topic. Just three friends and hosts checking in, sharing some perspective, and having the kind of conversation that happens when you finally get a chance to sit around the table together.Welcome to a different kind of episode of Through the Grapevine.#eatlocal #drinklocal #livelocal
-Introduction What does a mid-sized brokerage have that it cannot actually use? A specialized book and the data behind it, and none of the underwriting, capital, filing, and admin machinery it would take to turn that book into a program it owns. The ten largest firms solved this by buying MGAs. Cole Riccardi built Authentic to rent that machinery to everyone else, and nine of the top ten retail brokerages now work with him on digital programs anyway. In this conversation he explains why he refuses to call Authentic a software company, what he got wrong in the first two years, and why he went after Main Street before he went after the hard market. Guest Bio Cole Riccardi founded Authentic in 2022 after five years at Aquiline Capital Partners, where he invested across the insurance value chain and became convinced that nobody was building affinity insurance programs at scale. He built the company with a co-founder and COO who spent fifteen years as an actuary at AmTrust and a CTO who came out of six years at Amazon, and the platform was architected as multi-carrier, multi-tenant, and multi-product from the first day. Authentic runs out of New York and Dayton, Ohio, is backed by FirstMark Capital, and now sits behind six carriers with programs spanning Main Street, energy, and inland marine. Key Topics -Programs should not be limited to the top ten - The largest brokerages own their own MGAs. Riccardi's argument is that everyone else already has the book and the data, and only lacks the machinery, which is a rentable problem. -An MGA that gives its software away - Riccardi is emphatic that Authentic never wanted to sell software and makes its money in the transaction flow. The technology is what makes it a better trading partner, not the product. -Affinity is product creation, not just distribution - For PushPress, Authentic went through the entire book and built four or five custom class codes that mapped to CrossFit gyms and similar facilities, rather than rating them off generic fitness codes. -Main Street first, on purpose - Rather than chase hard-market classes where premium comes fast, Authentic built a sizable Main Street book to prove that the configured programs were what moved business over, not market scarcity. -Same infrastructure, new practices - A Chubb energy underwriter joined with a thesis about independent power producers being underserved on casualty. That program launched in May, and an inland marine practice was announced the day of this recording. -The captive he overbuilt - Riccardi is direct that as a first-time founder he overcomplicated the early years by building custom captive cells on the back end. The captive still exists and takes smaller slices, but it is no longer the pitch. -Fast nos and the right to win - Authentic has no trucking underwriter and no capacity partner who will raise a hand for it, so brokers asking about long-haul trucking get turned down quickly rather than strung along. Notable Quotes "We never wanted to sell software. I always wanted to be in the transaction flow. We make money as an MGA today. That's always how we will make money." "Nine of the top ten work with us today on digital programs." "We've actually gone after Main Street to start and built up a pretty sizable book there. We wanted to do that so we could prove to ourselves that our technology mousetrap mattered and we weren't just writing business because it was hard to find markets elsewhere." "Can we challenge the status quo that MGAs need twelve points to operate? If you're built on modern systems, I don't think you do."

Hey beautiful people. I've got a little cold and my hair is not cooperating, but I showed up anyway, because I didn't want to procrastinate on talking to you about procrastination. My mom Lois has never put anything off a day in her life, and she genuinely doesn't understand why the rest of us do. This one's for everybody else. Here's the truth: procrastination has nothing to do with how badly you want something. It's an emotional problem, not a productivity problem. You're not avoiding the task. You're avoiding the feeling attached to the task. Once you understand what your brain is doing, you can get the upper hand, and I've seen this work over and over with my clients. Key TakeawaysYour brain can't tell the difference between thinking about something and doing it. Every time you think about that thing you're putting off, your brain believes you're working on it and getting nowhere, so it starts to feel huge.Don't think about it unless you're working on it. Put it in your calendar in small chunks, set a reminder, and let it go until then.Motivation comes after action, not before. Start small, and the good feelings follow.Episode HighlightsA quick lemon exercise that proves your brain reacts to your thoughts like they're realWhy creative people are especially prone to procrastination, and the "perfect problem" that keeps them from startingThe five-minute timer trick I used with a painter client, who showed up with a canvas way bigger than I expectedWhy it takes longer to complain about emptying the dishwasher than to actually empty it (about three minutes, kids)Why your to-do list needs fun things on it too, even Halloween costumes in DecemberA guided meditation where you picture your task already done and feel what that's like, followed by silent repetition of the mantra OmMentions and ReferencesMy book, Honey Do to Honey DONE!, on using reminders and task lists so households can stop arguing about kitty litter and start actually talking to each otherThe "little by little" technique from last seasonMy "It's All in Your Head" T-shirtPickleball players and CrossFit folks, who are proof that feeling good fuels follow-throughTry This Week Pick one thing you've been putting off. Instead of thinking about it all week, put it in your calendar as a short block, even five minutes. When the time comes, get yourself somewhere that feels good: your favorite spot, a candle, your favorite drink. Then just start. And add one fun thing to your to-do list while you're at it.

What if the problem with your diet isn't discipline — it's that you've never learned to think for yourself about food? In this episode, our friend EC Synkowski (author of A Good Nutrition Book) joins us to explain why calories, macros, and micros — not keto, paleo, or intermittent fasting — are the real levers that decide your results.We break down her Three Pillars Method — the 800-gram fruit-and-vegetable challenge, a simple protein target, then a calorie baseline built from your real life instead of a calculator — and why it builds freedom instead of restriction. You'll also learn where cravings actually come from, and how to know when you've done enough and it's time to go learn guitar.
Recorded on-site at the 2026 CrossFit Games, Claire Bays shares her path from a small town in Oklahoma to the center of the CrossFit media world. She talks openly about her five-plus years of sobriety, how her community helped her ask for help, and why CrossFit has been better on the other side of it. Claire breaks down her Gratitude Mile, a daily run she's kept going for 360 straight days. It started as a way to get comfortable running in metcons and grew into online "90 in 90" challenges that bring people who find CrossFit intimidating into affiliates.---Take the free Affiliate Blueprint Assessment

The five Vegan Proteins coaches sit down for the first "Coaches Catch Up" to talk about what's happening in their training, competition prep, and lives outside the gym. Ben shares the story behind his surprise competition prep and his approach to classic physique, while Alice talks about her evolving competition goals and the possibility of moving toward women's physique. Giacomo discusses his renewed focus on training, technique, and recovery, including the differences between bodybuilding-style movement and the more efficient movement used in Olympic lifting and CrossFit.Dani shares some of her recent CrossFit experiences, including becoming more focused on technique and learning to be more coachable as she prepares to potentially compete. Sawyer talks about his music and the creative projects he's been working on, while the group also gets into the fun of spending time together outside of training: from concerts and late nights to the possibility of a future Vegan Proteins retreat.Along the way, the coaches discuss the realities of getting extremely lean, sustainable habits, sleep, coaching, competition goals, and how fitness can influence much more than just your physique. They also invite listeners to submit questions for the next all-coach Q&A episode.

Note from PJ & Kevin: Girlies, we've been battling gremlins when it comes to technology this month; first we lost a whole episode (more on that later), and this episode we had some audio issues when one of our mics started acting up mid-record. We've done our best to salvage it because we loved this ep- hopefully it's not too distracting for ye!This week, Kevin catches us all up on his trip to the Lake District with the CrossFit crew, and his viral tiny blind video! The theme is dating disasters: we've all made some questionable decisions when it comes to dating, and there's no judgement here at I'm Grand Mam. The lads hear some hilarious submissions telling tales of red flags, bad behaviour and smelly feet.Purchase Happy Campers Tour Tickets here
Remember when carbs were the enemy, you HAD to drink a protein shake within 30 minutes of training, and everyone was chasing the latest nutrition hack?In Episode 201 of the CrossFit Grandview Podcast, Brandon, Kate, and Dave look back at fitness trends and advice they once believed in, promoted, or even followed themselves—but have since completely changed their minds about.From low-carb diets paired with high-intensity exercise to the infamous anabolic window, we dive into how our understanding of nutrition, training, and recovery has evolved. We also get into the explosion of longevity protocols and whether we're overcomplicating the basics in our pursuit of optimal health.Nearly two decades in the fitness industry have taught us one thing: What we think we know today might look completely different 10 years from now. Join us for a fun conversation about changing our minds, lessons learned, and separating fitness fundamentals from passing trends.What fitness trend did YOU once swear by that you no longer believe in?

This week, we kick off a four-part series on the #8 biggest killer in America, which is Chronic Kidney Disease. But Dr. Prather says it is important to include Hypertension in the discussion because they are linked. In this episode, you'll learn:—The bad cycle of how Chronic Kidney Disease causes Hypertension and Hypertension causes Chronic Kidney Disease. —How almost 9-in-10 adults who have Chronic Kidney Disease don't even know that they have it. And the GFR lab test Dr. Prather monitors on all of his patients that reveals your Kidney health. —The astonishing fact that 80% of your Kidney function comes from the Left side and the Left Kidney actually sits lower than the tight Kidney. —How improving the Kidneys always improves Blood Pressure because 70% of Hypertension originates in the Kidneys. —Why there is a difference in acceptable Kidney lab numbers for Black patients. And why Dr. Prather says this is wrong and needs to be addressed. —How infections (particularly Strep infections), mineral and nutritional imbalances, Kidney stones, pharmaceuticals, and even injuries can cause Kidney Disease. —The importance of proper hydration and proper exercise for Kidney health. And how these can actually be overdone, such as with CrossFit, Triathletes, and Marathon runners. —The reason that Chronic Kidney Disease and Hypertension are known as "silent" killers. —Why prescription drugs are absolutely vital in the treatment of Hypertension, but also will eventually destroy the Kidneys over time. And how Holistic Integration helps patients to work off of their Hypertension medication over time by healing the Kidneys. —The reason that Dr. Prather says that if Structure-Function Care is not included in the treatment of Chronic Kidney Disease, it's just a "downward hill". http://www.TheVoiceOfHealthRadio.com*Receive exclusive bonus content as a member of our Voice Of Health Patreon Community:https://www.patreon.com/cw/VoiceofHealthPodcast

El Dr. Derik Marrero se sienta en Café en Mano para hablar sin filtros sobre cirugía plástica, cirugía estética, pérdida de peso, GLP-1, contorno corporal y los mitos que todavía existen alrededor de operarse en Puerto Rico.¿Cuál es la diferencia entre cirugía estética y reconstructiva? ¿Quién realmente es un buen candidato para cirugía plástica? ¿Qué ocurre con el cuerpo después de perder una cantidad significativa de peso con cirugía bariátrica o medicamentos GLP-1? ¿Por qué algunos resultados se ven naturales y otros inmediatamente parecen “operados”?Derik explica su filosofía al momento de operar: buscar armonía y proporción en lugar de simplemente hacer lo que el paciente pide. También habla de ocasiones en las que prefiere no operar, porque para él la cirugía no debe sustituir el ejercicio, la nutrición ni un cambio real de estilo de vida.Conversamos además sobre cómo han cambiado los estándares de belleza desde los años 80 hasta hoy, el impacto de figuras públicas y redes sociales en la cirugía estética, el crecimiento del turismo médico y la importancia de investigar las credenciales del profesional antes de escoger únicamente por precio.También entramos en el boom de los GLP-1 y la pérdida masiva de peso, la importancia de preservar masa muscular, exceso de piel, cirugía de contorno corporal y por qué utilizar una herramienta para bajar de peso no sustituye cambiar hábitos.Finalmente, Derik aclara algunos mitos sobre implantes de seno, CrossFit, ejercicio después de cirugía y liposucción, incluyendo la idea de que la grasa “se mueve” hacia otra parte del cuerpo.☕ Café Dos CaminosCafé 100% puertorriqueño.Utiliza el código CAFEENMANO para un 10% de descuento.

CrossFit Elkhorn keeps gym churn under 4% with 233 members. Here's the weekly scorecard, class standard, and coach scoring system behind it. The average CrossFit gym churns members far faster than that. Trevor Baxter has run CrossFit Elkhorn in Omaha, Nebraska for 12 years, and his gym churn rate sits at 3.85% for the year, which means his average member stays close to 29 months. Mike visited the gym in person and walked through every system behind that number. Trevor's weekly scorecard takes 10 minutes to run and tracks revenue, member count, paid versus pending accounts, holds, cancels, and attendance. His coaches are scored on retention, referrals, and upgrades instead of opinion, so underperformance is a number, not a feeling. They also cover the minute-by-minute class standard Trevor built with his head coach, and the AI guardrails running his ad campaigns, where spend only increases 15 to 20% at a time and shuts off automatically when cost per lead crosses a set threshold. If your gym churn rate has been stuck for a while, this is what a CrossFit gym member retention system actually looks like in practice. In this episode you'll learn: — The weekly scorecard Trevor runs in 10 minutes that tracks the health of his business — The exact numbers on that scorecard: revenue, members, paid percentage, holds, cancels, and attendance — Why anything below 60% weekly attendance is a red flag worth investigating — The minute-by-minute class standard Trevor built with his head coach — The difference between proactive coaching and reactive coaching, and why most gyms skip it — The coach scoring system based on retention, referrals, and upgrades instead of opinion — What happens the moment a coach's score drops below 85 — The AI guardrails running Trevor's ad campaigns, and why he never scales spend more than 15 to 20% at once — Why CrossFit Elkhorn refocused on product over lead volume, and what changed — The four rights framework: right people, right seats, right things, right time — Why Trevor believes systems should manage people instead of people managing systems If you have ever wondered what it actually takes to lower your gym churn rate for good, this is the exact system to copy. Timestamps: — 0:00 Trevor's churn number, and why it matters — 0:22 What 3.85% churn actually means for retention — 1:12 The job to be done, and why every member comes for something different — 1:50 CrossFit Elkhorn's core values, explained — 2:30 233 members and $210 average client value — 3:23 Inside the weekly scorecard — 3:59 The 70% attendance target nobody talks about — 6:04 What to track first if you have nothing in place — 10:37 Proactive coaching versus reactive coaching — 20:39 Building AI guardrails into ad spend — 22:08 What happens when a coach's score drops below 85 — 23:05 Why systems make it easier to hire and replace — 23:27 Meet the AI employee managing leads — 25:04 The two types of management — 27:31 The bathroom story that explains their standard — 30:34 Where "the CFE way" came from 100K Plan: https://100kplan.com Behind Gym Doors Podcast Playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLnwaMl7Us7dAkfE6idQW56EYkEEQ2E5eE Trevor built one of the most complete operational systems Mike has seen at this size, and it shows in a gym churn rate most owners would love to have. The plan behind how GSD Gyms helps studios build systems like this is right here. Turns out a clean sink says more than a mission statement.

Plateaus, leaderboards, and the real reason most people stop making progress in the gym — we answer the questions you've been too afraid to ask.In part two of our training Q&A, Jamison and Ben explore why fitness follows the stock market (not a straight line), how to use the leaderboard as a tool instead of a verdict, and why the law of diminishing returns is actually proof you're advancing — not stalling.
Bea and Dee wade into the messiest pop-culture sports story of the week: the Hyrox champion who lost control of her bowels mid-race in Beijing, kept hitting every station, won anyway, then had to forfeit after the internet collectively screamed “biohazard.” They unpack the viral clips, the “a win is a win” Instagram story, Hyrox realizing its rulebook banned spit but not poop, the turf replacement, the refunds, and why endurance culture and shared rowing machines were never going to mix. It's disgusting, kind of impressive, extremely unfair to everyone else on the course, and somehow the girls still find the humor.

Today, we decided to bring back one of our favorite conversations with Casper ter Kuile, because he'll be joining us this next week, September 24th through 26th, at Restore:Connect. Casper has spent years exploring the changing landscape of spiritual life in America, especially the new ways that people are finding belonging, meaning, transformation, and even sacredness as traditional religious participation declines. About a decade ago, Casper and his fellow Harvard Divinity School classmate, Angie Thurston, wrote a fascinating report called How We Gather, looking at the ways that millennials were finding forms of spiritual community in seemingly secular spaces, from CrossFit and SoulCycle to social justice movements. Since then, Casper has continued exploring how we create meaningful spiritual lives. He co-hosted the beloved podcast, Harry Potter and the Sacred Text. He wrote The Power of Ritual and launched The Nearness, an online community built around exploring life's big questions together. In this conversation, Zach Davis talks with Casper about what he's learned from years of studying and working at the edges of America's evolving spiritual landscape.We are so excited to share it again since Casper will be joining us next week. If you don't have your tickets for Restore:Connect yet, now is the time. We would love to see you there so you can hear more from Casper and so many other incredible speakers. You can go to faithmatters.org/restore for tickets.Join us September 24-26 at Restore:Connect and don't let finances stop you from joining us - email info@faithmatters.org for a scholarship if you or someone you know could use one.
