Fitness goals can dominate New Year's resolution lists, but two experts tell us why people should take it easy and not put too much strain on their bodies this year. Lou Schuler is the former fitness director at Men's Health magazine and the author of many fitness books; and Jeff Warren is a meditation teacher, the host of the Do Nothing Project and a former producer for The Current.

I’m often asked about how to make money in the fitness space. One obvious route is becoming a coach or personal trainer. This can be done in-person or online, but if you can help people get into shape, build muscle, and lose fat, and know how to market yourself, you can earn a decent income. And I’ve talked before about building an online coaching business and becoming a successful coach. Another path, though, is content marketing. This can be monetized in various ways, but it all begins with creating high-quality content that provides value. This is also something I’ve discussed on the podcast with the likes of Lou Schuler, but today’s episode is a bit different. Specifically, I’m having a fireside chat with David Tao, the founder and CEO of BarBend. In case you’re not familiar with BarBend, it’s a hub for all things strength related: news coverage, training and nutrition articles, product reviews, and more. And David isn’t a new kid on the block—he wrote for Fortune and Greatist.com before creating Barbend and turning it into what it is today. So, who better to discuss building a media business than someone who found a gap in the market, and carved out their own niche by creating unique, valuable content and grew it into the premier news source on strength sports. In this episode, David and I talk about . . . How he seized an opportunity to “scratch his own itch” Why creating content is hard and the biggest mistakes creators make The importance of staying top of mind The beginning of BarBend as a news outlet and when he realized it could be successful Monetization (advertising and sponsorship) His biggest mistakes that turned into lessons His game plan for the future And more . . . So, if you want to learn how David created a strength sports content empire from scratch, listen to this episode and let me know what you think! 8:01 - What was the opportunity you saw? 16:29 - When starting out, should you focus on quality over quantity? 324:35 - How did you start out? 30:04 - At what point in that first year did you see signs of life? 38:07 - How did you go from having a great idea to having a viable business? 49:34 - What are some of the worst decisions that you made that later became great lessons? 59:16 - What are your future plans?

To celebrate the 100th episode of the podcast, I wanted to make it special. And I couldn't think of anyone else besides Nate Green to fill that role. Nate and his work has, without a doubt, inspired me more than anyone else to create the content that I do, so it was a pleasure to have him on to catch up and preach some wisdom for you guys. For those that don't know, Nate is an author, contributor to Men's Health magazine, and a “marketing and ideas guy” at Precision Nutrition. Interestingly enough, he reveals one more (amazing) title to this list during the middle of this episode. I'm stoked to share this conversation and I really think you guys are going to love it. Cheers to 100 episodes, my friends! In this chat, we cover (in order): -Why Nate is referred to as the "Banksy of Fitness" -He reveals that he's leaving Precision Nutrition and where he's working next (Sam Harris fans: get excited) -Nate's background and why he felt he had "no choice" but to get into fitness -Getting mentored by Lou Schuler, starting a blog, and opening a gym (with no idea how to do it) -How it felt to be published in magazines, work with Tim Ferriss, and get a book deal at such an early age -Why he felt obsessed with "making it" when he was younger and if he thought it was necessary -Why he decided to work internally, as opposed to searching for happiness through more power, fame, money, etc. -The moment in his life where he asked "what's the point?" and allowed himself to relax -His advice on how to balance ambition and contentment -Different definitions for "success" -How do you hold yourself to a high standard without being too hard on yourself -Dealing with negative emotions -His goals and intentions for 2021 -His action steps for a more peaceful experience -Working out without music or podcasts -And more!

I write a lot. Between my books and blog, I’ve written (er, typed) tens of millions of words on various topics ranging from building big guns (biceps) to literal gun rights, from calories and macros to history and religion, from habits and motivation to actually getting smarter, and many excursions everything in between. So it’s not surprising that many people who are interested in writing ask me how to get started, about the writing process, how to get better at it, and how to break into the content creation game. To help address this topic, I invited a veteran expert, Lou Schuler, onto the podcast. In case you’re not familiar with Lou, he’s the Editorial Director of the Personal Trainer Development Center (Jonathan Goodman’s online training coaching company) and an award-winning journalist who’s spent decades writing fitness articles for Men’s Fitness and Men’s Health, as well as his own books, including The New Rules of Lifting series and The Lean Muscle Diet (with Alan Aragon). He’s even delved into the world of fiction, so he’s more than just a health and fitness writing guru. In this podcast, we chat about all things writing, including . . . How writing is different from other content creation Why you probably shouldn't write unless you really enjoy it The important of knowing your audience The value of self-editing (and how to do it) Why writing is hard (and should be) Dealing with drafts and coming back to them with fresh eyes And more . . . So, if you want to learn some key lessons Lou has learned from decades of writing in the fitness space, give this episode a listen! 10:04 - How do you get into the writing business? 46:28 - What does your self editing process look like? 58:10 - Do you tend to sit on something you’ve written and come back to it at a later time?

Many guys devote so many hours to lifting weight yet end up with so little to show for it. In many cases the problem is simple: they aren't doing exercises based on the movements their bodies were designed to do. Six basic movements - the squat, deadlift, lunge, push, pull and twist - use all of the body's major muscles. And, more important, they use those muscles in coordinated action, the way they were designed to work. The New Rules of Lifting, now in paperback and with more than one hundred photographs, gives you more than a year's worth of workouts based on these six basic movements. Whether you're a beginner, an experienced lifter looking for new challenges, or anything in between, you can mix and match the workouts to help you get bigger, stronger and leaner. In addition, the comprehensive nutritional information provided makes The New Rules of Lifting a complete guide to reaching all your goals. If you aren't using The New Rules of Lifting, you aren't getting the best possible results.

Lou Schuler is an award winning journalist, co-author of The New Rules of Lifting series, fiction writer, and history buff. I wanted to bring Lou onto the show because I've long admired his abilities behind a keyboard, and how he's been able to find success in unconventional ways, by combining skills that, from a view, appear unrelated. He's a great example of a generalist. Our discussion was as eclectic as I hoped it to be. First, we talked about whether someone can lead a happy/productive/meaningful life in a state of delusion--what Lou calls Magical Thinking. (Short answer: Yes.). But we also discussed how such gullibility presents grave danger if ever it attaches itself to something like believing your diet should be based on the length of your big toe. We also talked on writing a bit, as well, and how Lou handles such impediments as writer's block. His response is as straightforward and as effective as it gets--classic Lou. Lou also trotted out his Rule of 80%, which so far stands as the opening statement of my upcoming book: If you want to be happy in life, know what you want, and get 80% of it. Listen in and we'll explain!

We have an Open Sky Fitness Podcast group where you and everyone will have the opportunity to talk about your health and fitness goals in a safe environment. We'll be posting workouts and starting discussions about how to be strategic around finding a healthier you. Check it out!    Your Health and Wellness This Week: Strength Training & Self-Care On this week's episode of Open Sky Fitness, award-winning journalist,  certified strength and conditioning specialist, and author, Lou Schuler, spoke to Rob about his career and life experiences about getting fit and staying fit for life. Lou has had a career in the fitness journey for more than 20 years and has witnessed major changes and trends in the world of health. But before we get into the interview with Lou, Rob and Devon share some self-care topics. Learn what it means when you judge other people, how you can turn your focus back to you, and when is a good time to help other people in need. Lou Schuler's Fitness Advice On this episode, you'll learn what it was like for Lou to start lifting weights as a teenager with minimal sources available compared to the immense amount of information that you can find today on the Internet and in magazines. Today, As Lou reaches 60 years of age, he's realized that his focus on strength training and fitness has shifted compared to when he was younger. Lou currently works out about 3 days a week and focuses on core stability training and mobility training. By focusing on more isometric exercises, Lou has been able to focus on improving his balance while still staying strong, stabilizing the muscles, and avoiding joint pain. Growing Stronger Over Time Whether you're just beginning to strength train or you're returning to it after a break, it's important to start with the basics and progress over time. Lou's advice is that you shouldn't feel that you need to speed up your workout to lift heavy weights or take on a Cross Fit class. Don't do anything intense until you've mastered the basic movements. Back to the Basics of Strength Training Even if you've been lifting for years, going back to basics with a program that includes completing 2 sets of 12 repetitions can be fatiguing because your body has changed over time and it's not used to doing this exercise.     Staying Strong for Life When we're young, and especially if we're involved in sports, we can feel unstoppable. It's a great sensation to feel like you're unbreakable and don't have any limits when it comes to pushing your body's limits. On the other hand, not matter what our age is, we all need to take care of our body's health for life Athletes try to lift more than they can really handle and that's where injury comes into play. As we age, just like Lou, different types of strength training and balancing exercises come into play. At some point in our lives, we begin to prioritize exercises that help us to stabilize our body and condition the muscle to help reduce any type of future injury. If an injury should occur, we want to make sure that our body is strong enough that we can recover quickly.   Staying Healthy With Age   "There is no turning back the clock. I'll never get back the body that I used to have when I was 30, 40, or even 50. There's just no way." - Lou Schuler   A lot of people may believe that they can have this same body forever by taking a special pill, but we have to realize that our bodies will age and we cannot workout at the gym in the same matter that we did when we were younger. As we get older, it can be discouraging to think about everything that our bodies used to be able to do when we were younger that we cannot do now. However, the best thing about gaining experience with fitness and strength training over time is that we know our bodies better than we did before. Now we can suspect when an injury might come up, we know when to slow down, and we recognize when we've reached our limits. We just have to treat our bodies well over time and take care of it the best we can through fitness and nutrition.    About Lou Schuler   Lou Schuler is an award-winning journalist, a certified strength and conditioning specialist, a contributing editor to Men’s Health magazine (you can find most of my articles here), and author or coauthor of many popular books about diet and strength training.

First Name Last Name Email Cell # (1+area code)   --------------------------------------------------------------- Listener Q&A: ====================================== [contact-form 3 "AskBen"] ====================================== chunkybearcub asks via twitter @bengreenfield: what do u think of citruaid citrulline amino acid supplement? Helen asks: Please can I ask about my friend who has had a medical with the following areas of concern; Blood count MCHC 31.8g/dL, Gamma Gtp 167 IU/L and LDL Cholesterol 4.6/total chol 6.7. He is keen to know what these figures mean and what he can do to treat naturally/lifestyle changes. Nick asks: I've read that kombucha should not be taken by pregnant women.. why is that? Chuck asks: I'd like to listen to some audio books while I drive and I know you often recommend some good ones. What are your picks for health and life balance/prioritization/efficiency? In my response to Chuck, I recommend he visit my personal blog at http://bengreenfieldtri.blogspot.com/, and I also recommend Psychocybernetics by Maxwell Maltz. Steve asks: I am an avid follower of your training and nutritional advice, successful ultra-marathon runner and a neurological physical therapist in the UK. My younger brother is soon to return to the UK. He is morbidly obese, has acquired type 2 diabetes while living abroad, and suffers from associated health problems. I would love to get him on the right path to good health and longevity, but frankly the diabetes issues confuses me. Please could you advise of good training and eating strategies, or some good resources to refer to. In my response to Steve, I recommend he look into low-carbohydrate diabetes diet books written by Dr. Richard Bernstein. Patrick asks: I'm getting all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled out of my head on Thursday, and the dental hygienist has told me some terrifying "facts" about my future nutritional practices. She said I should expect to eat semi-solids like mashed potatoes and applesauce for a couple days. She went on to say that because of the craters (for lack of a better word) that will be left after surgery, I'm forbidden from hard foods for 6 months, including all nuts and seeds! What is your take on this? What are some food suggestions you have that can support 70.3 and IM triathlon training, but won't be as damaging to my dental health? I encourage Patrick to read the SuperHealth diet book by KC Craichy and look into LivingProtein and LivingFuel (read the label), along with this Vitamix/green smoothie video, and the BenGreenfieldFitness Inner Circle. Layla asks: I know CoQ and ubiquinol supplements are recommended for older people for energy and antioxidant benefits, but since these molecules work in the electron transport chain in mitochondria, will they also increase metabolism? I also have a second question. I live somewhere really cold so I'm interested in shifting my metabolism toward heat production. Therefore, I'm wondering if there are any ways for adults to convert white fat to the more metabolically active brown fat. Are there proton uncoupling supplements that act like thermogenin (ucp1)? Craig asks: Whenever I drink from the aero bottle on the bike I get a burning sensation in the back of my throat that feels somewhat like GERD. I know it's not the water source, it's the same one I've been putting in bottles for a decade. What gives? How can I stop it? BTW, great tip using the flexible refrigerator tubing in the aero bottle. -------------------------------------------- Remember, if you have any trouble listening, downloading, or transferring to your mp3 player just e-mail ben@bengreenfieldfitness.com And don't forget to leave the podcast a ranking in iTunes - it only takes 2 minutes of your time and helps grow our healthy community!
