One of the most frequent questions we receive at DLDNation is, "what is a reverse diet?" Our society and culture has conditioned us to always be in a traditional "diet" and cutting calories to lose weight. Chronic dieting for months and even years can lead to a concept called metabolic adaptation aka your body gets used to those lower calories. A host of negative side effects can come from metabolic adaptation and along with stalling weight loss, fatigue and decreased hormonal health can set in. How do we solve this? This is where reverse dieting comes in! I have with me DLDNation Coach Raisa on the show to discuss what a reverse diet is, results we've seen with clients who go through a reverse, what the process looks like, and so much more!   Time Stamps:   (1:20) What is a Reverse Diet?

Coach Rod AKA @stro_dos on the Gram is joining us for his very first podcast episode! Joining him is Coach Spencer and the 3 of us are going to be discussing manly stuff, but the DLDNation way.

I couldn't be prouder of my guest today as we've worked together in a life coaching capacity most of this year and I've seen her blossom into a full fledged leader in her company and leader in her life as well. In short, she's made the damn thing happen this year! Alex Long is the head assistant coach and registered dietitian at Vanessa G Fitness and Nutrition, dog mom to Emmie, Denver resident, and fan of EDM (we already love her right?). That's just a short list of who she really is. We talk about how we met, the big leap she took at the beginning of this year to foster her leadership and personal development growth, the importance of having a team surround you in your personal and professional development journey, and much more!   Time Stamps:   (1:18) Finding Each Other and 2020 (3:40) Shoutout to Kyle (5:16) What Alex Has Been Able to Accomplish (11:00) Swimming Talk (13:13) Managing Stress (19:10) Canoe Analogy (20:25) Weekend Trip to NLCA Event (24:56) Going All In On Personal Development (31:45) Alex's Team (35:15) Who is Alex Outside of Work?

Our guest and DLDNation client has been through the ringer when it comes to personal obstacles in her life battling cancer that spread seemingly out of nowhere but thankfully is cancer free now for 16 years and is thriving now that she found a community like us.  She tried everything her friends, co-workers, and family recommended (does this sound familiar?) and then she found us. We were able to show Lupe what it's like to have the life she wants with her health, nutrition, and body without scarifying her favorite foods AND she gets to get carbs again and a lot of them! Join us as we talk about her experience, what comes easy now, how she approaches a cut phase with excitement, and more!   Time Stamps:   (1:46) Kicking Cancer's Ass 16 Years Running (5:30) Losing Her Hair (8:42) Trying the South Beach Diet (12:19) Finding Dala and DLDNation (15:28) Sticking with DLDNation (17:36) Going Through Challenging Moments (19:13) What Comes Easy Now (23:50) Eating Differently Than the Family (26:36) Going Into a Cut (29:30) Eating More Food (39:20) Advice for People on the Fence (48:25) Where to Find Lupe ---------------------------- Follow Us on Instagram! @fitnessshaman @dalalovesdumbbells @dldnation @shotstothedomepodcast ---------------------------- Book a Life Coaching Session w/ Sean ---------------------------- We have helped over 4,000 people transform their lives through sustainable health!

What is health hacking? Can you really hack your way to better nutrition, fitness, and mental health? Let's dive in and find out! Sean McDevitt, the Co-Founder of DLDNation nutrition and fitness coaching, is back on Ever Forward Radio to talk about his incredible new book, Hack Your Health. In this discussion, Chase and Sean explore the worlds of health hacking and psychedelic medicine, shedding light on the practices and mindsets that can help you improve all aspects of your health. Sean shares all the hacks you can use to make gains in your health, fitness, mindset, and nutrition starting right now.    Follow Sean McDevitt @fitnessshaman Follow Chase on Instagram @chase_chewning Follow him on Twitter @chasechewning   Key Highlights Sean shares the story behind his book, Hack Your Health, highlighting the pandemic's effect on his coaching business, DLDNation. The word “hack” often makes us believe that we need to adjust because we're doing something wrong or shameful… but this isn't true! Hacks are in place to help us make small adjustments that lead to big gains. When trying to hack your health, Sean emphasizes the power of the pause. Essentially, create a stillness practice in your life through meditation, breathwork, journaling, time for rest, etc.  A huge part of hacking time is planning ahead. Sean talks about how he uses a “Journal of Truth” to better manage life's challenges and break through the mental blocks he experiences throughout the week. He breaks down the historical origin of the placebo effect and how he uses the placebo effect to shift into different mindsets and perspectives. Integration is the key to receiving benefits from psychedelics, self-help books, coaching, etc. If you're not consistently integrating what you've learned into your daily life, how do you expect to gain anything or achieve the outcome you're looking for?
