Highlights of the episode:- **Why you should avoid spending too much on consultants early on: Learn how to prioritize your resources and avoid the trap of "paralysis by analysis."- **Focus on building your client base first:** Coach Mike Boyle shares insights on why having systems and processes can wait until you have clients walking through the door.- **Lessons from industry veterans: Real-life stories about starting small—from training in unconventional spaces to building a thriving business over time.- **The importance of hiring the right people: Coach Boyle reflects on past hiring mistakes and how finding the right cultural fit has made all the difference.- **Training tips and techniques: A discussion on rear foot elevated split squats, when a little wobble is okay, and considerations for max heart rate training with clients over 60.This episode is not just about business advice; it's also about real-world coaching insights, making it perfect for fitness professionals at any stage of their journey.Enjoy the episode and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

Today, we're talking about one of my favorite topics and one I think is super important to extending health span strength training: How to train for lifelong strength, resilience, and performance. Now, I've been in the fitness game for over 30 years, and I've worked with thousands of clients navigating midlife and beyond. I've also learned from some of the best in the business—people like Dr. Rhonda Patrick, Mike Boyle, Alwyn Cosgrove, and Lee Taft—experts who don't just talk theory, but coach real people, get real results, and most importantly, help folks stay injury-free and thriving for the long haul. Because here's the deal—most people train for the wrong reasons. They train to look good. They train to “burn calories.” And while, sure, those things matter… if you're not training for longevity, for strength, for resilience—you're missing the point. So, today, we're breaking down exactly how the top experts train themselves and their clients—and how YOU can start training smarter today.
In this episode I discuss my recent trip to Mike Boyle's Strength & Conditioning facility in Woburn, MA. I attended their Spring seminar with my wife Lela, and we learned from some of the best minds in the fitness industry. I took several things away from this event; one being the importance of training an often overlooked muscle group, otherwise known as the "second heart." I have adjusted my own training program to prioritize this part of the body in an effort to give it the attention it deserves. Maintaining excellent cardiovascular health is severely underrated. I also discuss the importance of taking the leap into new ventures, and the importance of being a life-long student by focusing on your continued education. Thank you for listening!
