This Trending with Timmerie episode featuring Sal Di Stefano from Mind Pump Media was the ultimate pep talk for anyone trying to level up their fitness routine in the new year. Sal brought the goods with practical, science-backed hacks to take your workouts and overall health to the next level: no burnout required. These are simply tips to consider and be sure to consult your doctor! Stop Trying to Outwork Your Body: Make Exercise a Skill Sal’s first piece of wisdom? Stop thinking of exercise as a “get sweaty” contest. It’s not about being the most exhausted person in the gym. Instead: Treat your workout like a skill. Whether you're swimming, strength training, or doing Pilates, slow down. Focus on perfecting your form. Why? Better form = fewer injuries + better results + feeling stronger. For example: Instead of rushing through swimming laps, slow your pace and improve your efficiency. Same with lifting weights; less is more when your technique is on point. Timmerie’s note: "Slowing down is a game-changer! Even pro athletes I train think it’s torture at first, but they feel muscles they never knew existed the next day." Protein is Your BFF You’ve heard it before, but Sal laid it out so well. Here's something you may want to consider! Aim for 1 gram of protein per pound of your target body weight. Example: If your goal weight is 150 lbs, eat 150g of protein/day. Why? Protein helps with fat loss, muscle building, strength gains, and preserving lean tissue. Pro tip: Eat your protein first at every meal. It reduces cravings, keeps your blood sugar stable, and helps you feel fuller longer. Timmerie’s take: “Skip the hangry moods! I’m always telling people, just eat some protein, and suddenly they’re a whole new (nicer) person.” Creatine: The MVP of Supplements Sal recommended creatine monohydrate as something that could help! You can get your doctor's opinion too! It’s not just for bodybuilders: it’s great for everyone, boosting energy, improving muscle strength, and even supporting longevity. How to take it: The easiest way to consider could be through gummies. Not into those? You could also mix the powder into water or a shake; don’t overthink it. Sal’s hack: “If you’re not consistent with the powder, grab some gummies. Whatever makes it easier for you to stay on track!” Stretch Smarter, Not Harder If you’ve been stretching the wrong way (hint: static stretching), Sal’s got you covered: Dynamic stretches before a workout: Think movement-based stretches that warm you up without disconnecting your muscles from your brain. Example: Leg swings or walking toe touches. Static stretches AFTER workouts or before bed: Great for relaxing the nervous system and improving flexibility. (Think: Sitting hamstring stretches or hip openers.) Back pain or sciatica? Try these: Piriformis stretch (a.k.a. "figure 4 stretch"): Cross one ankle over the opposite knee while sitting, then lean forward. Pelvic tilts: Lie on your back, knees bent, and gently arch/flatten your lower back. Timmerie’s fave: “That figure 4 stretch? Lifesaver. And you don’t even have to get on the floor—perfect for chair stretchers like me!” BONUS HACKS YOU DIDN’T KNOW YOU NEEDED High-protein breakfasts = stable blood sugar all day. (No more 3 p.m. cookie cravings.) If you’re dealing with nutrient deficiencies (like vitamin D or iron), get tested! Fixing these will supercharge your energy levels and workouts. Takeaway Time Sal’s hacks are all about simplifying your routine so it works for you, not against you: Master the skill of your workout. Protein first, always. Creatine for the win! Stretch dynamically before workouts, statically after. Timmerie’s challenge: “Take just ONE of these tips this week and commit to it. Slow down your workouts, up your protein, or stretch properly. You’ll feel the difference!” So, friends, are you ready to crush 2025 with these doable fitness upgrades?

Dr. Craig Koniver, Performance Medicine Expert, joins Josh Trent on the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 642, to share why he leverages the power of peptides to help his patients achieve long-term health and well-being, and why he encourages people to use tirzepatide to start their weight loss journey. "Peptides are a way for the body to clean up the wrong kind of energy that keeps us stuck and become efficient. We need help with that because we live under artificial light, we don't breathe properly, and we don't spend time in nature in the sun." - Dr. Craig Koniver

You're scrolling on Instagram and stop dead in your tracks as you're served an ad for a ‘new' fitness product. Except it's not new…it's a slightly sleeker product from 20 years ago that promises you abs of steel in 28 days. While it feels like we face a new fitness trend every week, it's scary to think that the promise of a ‘quick fix' is just being recycled over and over again. In this episode of Habits & Hustle, I'm joined by Sal Di Stefano to reveal the truth behind some of the trends we're (unfortunately) seeing re-emerge in the health and fitness space. We tackle intermittent fasting, not as a diet trend, but as a cultural practice. And break down how it's being used as another fast way to weight-loss despite its potential health risks, especially for women. We also debunk a whole host of myths such as: sweat-equals-weight-loss, how much cardio you actually need, plant based ‘milks' vs dairy milk, the politicization of the vegan diet, and how supplements can completely transform your personal health journey. Sal Di Stefano is a personal trainer, co-founder of Mind Pump Media and co-host of Mind Pump, a podcast dedicated to providing truthful fitness and health information. Sal is dedicated to prioritizing health over appearance, and he aims to shift the direction of the fitness industry from aesthetic/insecurity based to one based in self-love and self-care. What we discuss… (00:01) - Breaking down the truth around major fitness trends (10:32) - Are fake ‘milks' actually better for you than dairy milk? (17:02) - Collagen protein: is it worth the hype? (28:57) - The real benefits of intermittent fasting and cold plunges for fat loss (38:36) - Does sweat actually equal weight loss? And how to fix your relationship with exercise (46:08) - How strength and metabolism are a better indicator of fitness progress than weight alone (53:17) - The need for exercise consistency over variety and the effects of caffeine on your training (01:00:13) - How the use of supplements has transformed our personal health journeys (01:10:34) - Why detaching yourself from the diet crazed culture is essential to long term health …and more!

The default for living in the West is poor health. The ills of modern society aren't just numerous, they are also entirely by design. Sick, unhealthy people make for better consumers and they are much easier to manipulate. There's a mission to undo our personal sovereignty, and the greatest insulation is optimization and refusing to get fleeced by a system that wants to control us. What do people get wrong about exercise? Can muscle bolster us against the attacks of the system? In this episode, I'm joined by personal trainer, co-founder and co-host of Mind Pump Media, Sal DiStefano. We talk about how to make yourself antifragile in a world that wants to break you. The default for living in the West is poor health. It is weird and strange to be healthy, fit and mobile if you live in modern Western society. -Sal DiStefano Things We Learned - How we got here Is the food society is consuming destroying our bodies because we want easier, faster, enjoyable and palatable? - Bolster yourself to be sovereign How do we move our bodies in a way that adapts to the problems and challenges of modern society? - How to avoid overtraining What's the difference between a workout that's optimal and a workout you can tolerate? - Worshiping science is dangerous Whether we know it or not, we worship something, how do we make sure we're not worshiping something that wants to manipulate us?

In this episode of the Therapy Show, I share my approach to staying healthy and fit as a busy mom in her 50s. I discuss the importance of lifting weights to preserve muscle mass, which decreases as we age. I also stress the importance of eating healthy and meal prepping, focusing on a higher protein diet and unprocessed carbs like starchy vegetables, rice, and quinoa. I recommend prioritizing vegetables and fruits, and buying organic when possible. I also advise against overdoing exercise and encourage listeners to prepare for menopause by controlling stress, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly. I share resources like Mind Pump Media, Fighterdiet, Bret Contreras and Katie Sonier for weightlifting programs and suggest that an efficient weightlifting workout can be done in 35-40 minutes. I also share my meal prep routine, which includes using a crockpot to make a variety of meals with chicken, ground beef, and brisket, and involving family members in the process to make it a fun and enjoyable experience. I emphasize the importance of consistency in exercise and eating healthy when you want optimal and vibrant health, at any age. I encourage listeners to make a commitment to themselves to eat healthy and exercise regularly, and to tap into their motivation for change. Remember, change takes time, patience, and consistency, but it is definitely possible. The Therapy Show with Lisa Mustard is sponsored by TherapyNotes!

“Obesity is a choice. This doesn't mean it's easy to solve, but it is a choice. YOU MUST accept this or you will never solve this problem.” -Sal Di Stefano The statement above either has you nodding your head in agreement or has you feeling a bit pissed off. If being overweight has been a recent or even a lifelong struggle for you, it's hard to hear that you're actually choosing to be overweight, but when you understand the power of extreme ownership over every area of your life, including your body you may start approaching your health much differently. Whenever health and weight loss come up, without a doubt diet and exercise are part of the conversation and first on most people's minds. What if there are other factors more important to not just losing weight, but to keeping the weight off long term? What if exercise isn't as important as we've been told? This episode with Sal Di Stefano is exposing the lies millions of people fall for that lose weight every year only to gain it back. Why is Sal so confident after 20 years in fitness that obesity is a choice people are repeating day after day? Sal Di Stefano is the co-founder and CEO of Mind Pump Media, podcast host of Mind Pump dedicated to delivering the absolute raw truth on health and fitness, and the bestselling author of The Resistance Training Revolution. If you find yourself choosing foods based on taste and convenience, if everything you try to lose weight ultimately leads to more weight gain and you're over being obese, being unhealthy, and being unhappy with the way you feel, make sure you're taking action today and asking yourself the one question Sal says will change your life. QUOTES: “You have to accept the things that you can't change, but you also have to take responsibility for the things that you can.” “Years ago as a trainer, I first started out thinking that losing weight will help people become happy. It took me ten years to figure out, you first had to learn to be happy before you could really lose weight.” “We use food rarely as a way to nourish ourselves, and rarely do we eat because we're genuinely hungry. Most people in modern societies never really feel true hunger.” “The fitness space is riddled with bodies that look ripped that belong to extremely unhealthy, dysfunctional individuals.” “Obesity is a very outward, visible, obvious sign of poor health or dysfunction.” Follow Sal Di Stefano: Website: https://www.mindpumpmedia.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/MindPumpTV Twitter: https://twitter.com/Mindpump Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mindpumpmedia/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mindpump/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mindpumpmedia?lang=en Podcast: https://mindpumppodcast.com/ RESTART your life in 7 days: http://bit.ly/42KM8OR Click here to download your FREE guide to 100x YOUR EFFICIENCY IN 10 EASY STEPS: https://bit.ly/3F8qOJL Sponsors: Sign up for a one-dollar-per-month trial period at http://www.shopify.com/impact Visit http://www.houseofmacadmais.com/impact and use code impact for 20% off all purchases, and for a limited time a complimentary bottle of cold-pressed Extra Virgin macadamia oil!

Mind Pump is my favorite podcast. If you're not familiar, these guys bill themselves as the world's #1 fitness, health, and entertainment podcast. They have three hosts – Sal, Justin, and Adam – and they cover a wide variety of topics on their show from current events, their personal lives, and of course health and fitness. I love their grounded, no BS fitness advice. I've had Sal on this show in the past, and today we have Adam on to talk to us about how to prepare for your first body building show. Now I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that most of you – like me - are not currently considering preparing for a body building show. So why listen to this show? I think there are four reasons why you'll love this episode. Number one, maybe your bodybuilder curious. Have you ever wondered what it takes to transform your body in such a radical way? Number two, there is a TON of useful information in this episode that us regular gym-goers can take away and apply to our health and wellness journeys. Number three, maybe you have no intention whatsoever of competing in a bodybuilding competition, but you'd like to train like a bodybuilder and see just how far you can transform your body. And the fourth and final reason is that maybe – just maybe – this episode will light a spark in you. That after this episode is over a seed will be planted, and you'll find yourself audacious enough to toy with the idea of stepping onto a bodybuilding stage for the first time in your life. My guest today is Adam Schafer. Adam is an IFBB pro bodybuilder, a founding member of Mind Pump Media, and a co-host on the Mind Pump podcast. Join us today as Adam shares his personal fitness journey, tells us why you might – and might not – want to consider competing in your first bodybuilding show. And along the way he'll give us tons of practical tips for getting into the absolute best shape of our lives.

I've had various non-fitness related discussions with my pal Sal Di Stefano (of Mind Pump Media fame) here on the Muscle For Life podcast, but this time we're combining topics. In this interview, Sal and I chat about the intersection of culture, politics, and health and fitness, and how fear is used to manipulate people. Sound interesting? I don't want to spoil the discussion, but we cover all sorts of subjects like propaganda in the fitness industry and controlling people with misinformation, toxic masculinity, claims about protein and the environment, veganism, the "body acceptance" movement, government and “conspiracy theories,” and we even speculate on what the future of fitness culture and manipulation in fitness industry might look like. In case you're not familiar with Sal, he's a co-host of Mind Pump Media, one of the top fitness podcasts out there. He's also an author, coach, and repeat guest on my podcast for good reason. While we love to chat about fitness, we also enjoy our conversational jaunts into history, politics, culture, and economics. So, if any of this sounds interesting to you, listen to this podcast and let me know what you think! Oh and beware some of the topics are a bit controversial. So before getting up in arms, remember the discussion is just for fun. :) --- Timestamps: 0:00 - Save 20% on my Phoenix fat-burner!
