Staying lean isn't about overhauling your entire lifestyle overnight. it's about stacking small, sustainable habits that actually stick. In this episode, we dive into the everyday choices that make the biggest difference when it comes to feeling strong, energetic, and confident year-round. We start by talking about why highly satiating foods are your best friend (especially during those times when hunger seems dialed up) and how minimizing calorie-dense “extras” can keep you feeling satisfied without the crash. From there, we break down the power of a “something over nothing” mentality when it comes to resistance training because it's not about perfection, it's about consistency. You'll also hear why making physical activity a lifestyle is key. Omar shares how Spartan races with his family keep him motivated, I talk about my time riding horses, and we both agree that nothing beats a simple walk. We also unpack the sneaky calories that come from what we drink, why sleep is the real performance enhancer, and how patience and consistency are often the missing ingredients in most fitness journeys. Most importantly, we'll remind you not to obsess over the scale or occasional feelings of heaviness. Progress is much deeper than a number. And when it comes to food, just because it's free doesn't mean you have to eat it. The goal is to choose intentionally, not impulsively. If you've been searching for a realistic, non-extreme approach to staying lean, this episode will give you practical tools and a mindset shift that can last a lifetime.

If you've ever wondered why you keep waking up at 2am, 3am, or right before your alarm goes off, this episode is for you. Middle-of-the-night wake-ups aren't random; they're your body's way of sending signals that something deeper might be out of balance. Instead of brushing it off as “just bad sleep,” we'll break down what your wake-up times might be revealing about your hormones, gut, blood sugar, and more. Think of your sleep like a night shift at a factory. Different departments run on different schedules. If one department has a problem, the alarm goes off at that time. By tracking your wake-up patterns, you can start to see the clues your body is leaving. We'll dive into the most common causes, from blood sugar dips and cortisol spikes, to low progesterone, high histamine, and even liver overload. You'll hear simple analogies like your brain's “glass of wine” being empty without progesterone, or your liver as the night shift cleaner making noise when it's overloaded that make these complex concepts easy to understand. We'll also cover lifestyle factors like blue light, meal timing, hydration, and circadian rhythm, because sometimes the simplest tweaks make the biggest difference. By the end, you'll know how to decode your body's signals, track what's really happening, and take small, sustainable steps toward better sleep. Your body isn't broken. It's communicating. This episode will help you finally understand the messages and reclaim deep, restorative rest. Time Stamps: (1:25) Upcoming Retreat (3:22) Why Do I Wake Up In The Middle Of The Night?

Ever wondered if counting macros is just another restrictive diet—or if it could actually help you feel more empowered in your weight loss journey? This episode will give you major clarity.In today's guest episode, I'm joined by the incredible Amber Brueseke—mom of four, former RN, personal trainer, and founder of Biceps After Babies. Amber is living proof that your fittest days can come after babies (and yes, even in your 40s), and she's here to challenge everything you think you know about dieting and sustainable weight loss.We're breaking down how macro counting isn't about eating less—it's about eating smarter. Amber shares how she used data, not deprivation, to align her nutrition with her goals (and why she ate ice cream every night and still got abs). From building muscle to feeling energized, we talk about using food as a tool—not a punishment—and how to ditch the “all-or-nothing” mindset that keeps so many women stuck.Amber breaks down the difference between using macros as a tool vs. treating them like another restrictive diet, how to get out of the all-or-nothing mindset, and why your “fittest self” might still be ahead of you (even in your 40s, 50s, and beyond).One of my favorite parts of this episode is when Amber introduces the “macro scientist” mindset—where curiosity replaces judgment and numbers become neutral. Whether you've been burned by calorie counting in the past, feel stuck in all-or-nothing thinking, or you're deep into your mindful eating journey—this conversation offers a fresh, freeing perspective on what's actually possible.xoxo, JackieCONNECT WITH AMBER:Instagram: @biceps.after.babiesPodcast: Biceps After Babies RadioWebsite: Bicepsafterbabies.com MORE FROM JACKIE: >

Have you ever wondered if your "healthy" diet might actually be making your symptoms worse? In this episode of The Wellness Effect, we're breaking down why the way we eat—especially as women—matters more than we think. From over-restriction and under-eating to low-carb trends and plant-based myths, we unpack the real reasons why so many of us are undernourished and hormonally out of whack. Whether you're experiencing burnout, gut issues, or irregular cycles, this conversation will help you reconnect with your body's needs and take the next step toward truly sustainable health. In this episode, you'll hear: The nutrition hierarchy - what to prioritize first (and what can wait until later) Why total energy (calories) trumps everything else - including organic food The real deal on macronutrients: protein, carbs, and fats explained simply How micronutrients fit into the picture (and when to start caring about them) Why your metabolism has "jobs" and what happens when you don't fuel it properly The truth about meal timing and why you don't need to stress about it yet When food quality actually matters (spoiler: it's not when you think) Key Takeaways: Protein and fat are essential macronutrients (your body can't make them), while carbs are your body's preferred energy source even though they're not technically "essential" One month of tracking your food will teach you more about nutrition than years of guessing - it's a learning tool, not a life sentence How you eat matters as much as what you eat - your nervous system state during meals affects digestion and absorption more than you realize Want more from us?

Ever feel like your cravings (or impulses) have control over you?In this episode, we're breaking down a simple but powerful process to take back your power without relying on willpower alone. You'll learn how to pause in the moment, understand why the urge is there, and see it for what it really is (hint: you won't explode if you don't give in). I'll walk you through how to write down the urge, your perceived reasons for acting on it, and then uncover the true cost of giving in. From there, we'll make a decision from a slower, clearer place rather than from that instant “must do it now” energy. I'll also share a personal example of how I've experienced this urge loop in my work life, and how simply planning when I'll handle something helps my brain relax. We'll talk about why saying “no” often makes the urge stronger at first and how to ride it like a wave instead of letting it sweep you away. Think of it like handling an angry toddler's tantrum: it feels intense, but it passes. By the end, you'll have a repeatable framework for handling cravings, emotional eating triggers, or even those distracting work pings that derail your focus. This is your guide to breaking the cycle and building self-trust one urge at a time.

If you've ever wondered how to truly support your body after coming off birth control or what to do first when you're feeling bloated and sluggish, this episode is for you. In part two of our Q&A series, we're diving into your most-requested questions: going deep on women's health, hormone balance, and big-picture life goals. I share my supplement thoughts post–birth control, why broad advice often backfires without proper bloodwork, and how our FLUSH protocol helps set a strong foundation for healing. We also discuss what most women get wrong before coming to Vital Spark and whether a DUTCH test is worth it while still on hormonal contraception. From there, we get personal: what I would tell my past self, how we're thinking about family 20 years down the line, and even some of my non-profit aspirations for the future. Finally, I break down the first steps to take when you're bloated, fatigued, and don't know where to start so you can stop spinning your wheels and start feeling like yourself again. This one is packed with both strategy and soul. Whether you're here for the hormone hacks, the mindset shifts, or just a little encouragement for your own journey, you'll leave with clarity and practical next steps to move forward with confidence.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Have you ever asked yourself: Am I really aware of how much social media and online content is influencing my kids? Have I noticed my kids becoming overly focused on their physical appearance or diet? How do I handle conversations about nutrition and fitness at home? If you've noticed your son obsessing over his physique or protein intake, or your daughter silently struggling with self-worth because of what she sees online, this episode is for you. Larry and Rich dive deep into how today's digital landscape is distorting kids' perceptions of themselves, driving issues like body dysmorphia, disordered eating, and unhealthy relationships with food and fitness—affecting boys and girls earlier than ever before. You'll hear real talk on what warning signs to watch out for, how to foster healthy conversations about food and body image, and the steps you can take to protect your kids from the relentless pressures of curated perfection online. Plus, learn practical strategies for monitoring your child's digital world and discover why it's crucial to model resilience, open dialogue, and authentic self-worth in your home. Whether you're a dad, coach, or mentor, this episode is your wake-up call and toolbox—because the world is changing, and as fathers, we need to step up, disrupt the status quo, and help our kids build unshakeable confidence in themselves. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Why Social Media Is A Game-Changer: Unlike the occasional magazine we grew up with, today's kids are constantly exposed to unrealistic body standards, curated feeds, and supplement ads designed to make them feel “less than.” The result? Kids (especially boys ages 12-14!) are reporting anxiety, body dysmorphia, compulsive exercising, and disordered eating at skyrocketing rates. Spot the Warning Signs: It's not just about undereating—obsession with protein grams, excessive workouts, and constant flexing in the mirror can all point to an unhealthy relationship with food and body image. Smart Conversations, Not Confrontations: The episode shares actionable tips to open up dialogue with your kids. Watch "Generation Flex" together, use it as a springboard for honest conversation, and focus on how food and fitness make us feel—not just how we look. Model Healthy Habits: As dads, it's not about being perfect—it's about showing our kids that food isn't “good” or “bad,” and that balance is key (yes, you can have that burger and a salad). Digital Safety for Peace of Mind: Larry also highlights tools like Bark, which alert you to concerning activity on your kids' devices—so you're not left in the dark about what they're seeing online. If you care about raising healthy, resilient sons and daughters in an always-connected world—and want to know the practical steps you can take at home—this episode is for you Here's what research and observation highlight about Studies show that hospitalizations for pediatric eating disorders rose by 139% from 2002 to 2018, with the largest relative increase seen in males aged 12 to 14 Boys and men now represent a third of all eating disorder diagnoses today Nearly 100% of kids with internet access are exposed to carefully curated or unrealistic fitness/body images daily. thedadedge.com/bark thedadedge.com/alliance https://menshealth.com @menshealthmag @richdorment Read more about Men's Health's documentary "Generation Flex": https://www.menshealth.com/generationflex Watch Generation Flex on Apple TV+:https://tv.apple.com/us/clip/generation-flex Watch Generation Flex on Amazon Prime Video: https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0DJCND11R
You've been doing “all the right things” for a few weeks. Eating better, moving your body but the scale hasn't budged. Sound familiar? That's not failure. That's normal. In this episode, we unpack the uncomfortable truth: healing and real transformation take time, often much longer than we want. You'll hear why quick fixes and crash diets set you up for disappointment, and why slow, steady progress is the only path to sustainable change. We'll talk about prepping your body before weight loss even begins, what to expect when you start eating more, and why discomfort (yes, including hunger and resistance) is part of the journey. I also share what it took for me to transform over two years and why I still don't believe in a “finish line.” If you're frustrated with your progress or tempted to give up after a few weeks, this episode will reframe everything. Healing is possible. It just doesn't happen overnight.

Shaela shares why this method works for every body, every season, and every stage of life. No macro math, no apps—just real results and freedom in your fitness journey. What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to use your hand as a built-in nutrition tool Why calorie counting can backfire (mentally & physically) How portion control can adjust to your season and hunger Ways this method supports spiritual and physical health Why this is the most sustainable strategy for real women with real lives Key Takeaways: You were designed with hunger cues and portion cues. Your hand is proportionate to your body and your needs. Hand portions flex with your life and schedule—and still support strength and confidence.

Do You Know What's Driving Your Hormone Symptoms? Take the first step to balance your hormones naturally with my FREE Hormone Symptom Profile Assessment: https://bit.ly/takemyhormonequiz First, it was low-fat. Then it was no carbs. Then more protein… And finally, “just eat intuitively.” No wonder more than half of us in perimenopause feel totally confused about what to eat—especially when our hormones, metabolism, and energy are changing by the week. In this week's episode, I'm walking you through how macro tracking works in midlife, why your macronutrient needs shift with menopause and hormone imbalance, and how to finally stop fearing food—and start using it to fuel your results. In this episode, I'll answer your most-asked questions, including: ✅ “What is a macro and why do I need to track it?” ✅ “How do macros change after 40?” ✅ “How much protein should I eat to lose weight?” ✅ “What is the best macro ratio for belly fat after menopause?” ✅ Can eating too much healthy fat cause weight gain in perimenopause? ✅ “What are the best macros for building muscle after 40?” ✅ “Is low carb bad for hormone balance?” If you break out into a cold sweat every time you try to do macro math in your head—this episode is for you.
Step into Episode 170 of On the Delo as David DeLorenzo sits down with his coach and friend Eugene Trufkin for a rare in-depth conversation about mindset, discipline, and health that goes far beyond macros and workouts. Eugene opens up about his early life in the USSR, being raised on a biodynamic farm, and how that foundation shaped his philosophy on training, eating, and living well.From immigrant hustle to coaching elite clients, Eugene shares hard-earned insights on why transformation is more about psychology than strategy. The two talk openly about body image, ego traps, burnout, and what it really means to live a sustainable lifestyle. If you're a business owner or hospitality industry professional looking to feel strong, think clearly, and stay consistent, this episode is full of real talk and proven perspective.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 3:00) Introduction: Podcast 170 and Guest Eugene Trufkin (3:01 - 7:50) Eugene's Backstory: Moldova, USSR, and the American Dream (7:51 - 12:30) From Predator to Paintball: Childhood Influences (12:31 - 19:00) Coaching Philosophy and the Origins of Trufkin Athletics (19:01 - 25:30) Why Most Health Plans Fail: Core Values and Environment (25:31 - 31:15) Time-Saving Meal Systems and Lifestyle Design (31:16 - 37:00) Delo's Ego, Body Fat, and Realizations from the Journey (37:01 - 43:30) Eating Out, Building Muscle, and Letting Go of Extremes (43:31 - 47:00) Athletic Burnout, Kid Development, and Real Longevity (47:01 - 54:55) Home Gym Must-Haves and Injury-Free Workouts
If you're eating clean, working out, and still not losing weight… your gut might be the missing piece. In today's episode, I'm breaking down 10 reasons why gut health directly impacts your metabolism, hormones, and ability to lose fat and why testing with a GI MAP could be the game-changer you've been missing. We'll talk about how certain gut infections like H. pylori or parasites keep your body in survival mode, signaling it to hold on to fat. You'll learn how your gut bacteria influence your cravings, blood sugar, and even your metabolism through short-chain fatty acids like butyrate. I'll explain why hidden gut inflammation can block fat loss and how slow digestion (aka not pooping daily) recirculates estrogen and toxins, stalling your progress. We'll also dive into how bad bacteria can steal essential nutrients you need for fat-burning, how gut health affects your thyroid function, and why your gut impacts not just your body, but your brain chemistry and motivation too. Plus, I'll explain why detoxing estrogen properly is key to shedding stubborn fat and how even the “perfect” diet won't work if your gut can't break down food and eliminate waste. This episode will help you see why your gut is the foundation of sustainable weight loss and why it's not just about willpower or cutting calories. If you're feeling stuck, testing your gut might be the missing link to get your body working with you again.
