Hiring HVAC and Plumbers   In today's business world, building relationships with the people in your industry is more critical than ever. Whether you're a plumber, an HVAC technician, or an electrician, the people you know can make or break your business. Here's why building relationships is so meaningful—and how you can go about doing it. The Power of Networking One of the most important reasons to build relationships with people in your industry is that it can help you land new work. When you have a good relationship with someone, they're more likely to refer you to their friends and family when they need your services. And, as we all know, word-of-mouth is still the best marketing. referrals account for 13 percent of new business, but 61 percent of marketers say they don't have a process for generating them. If you want to tap into this powerful source of new business, start by building solid relationships with the people in your network. Not only can networking help you land new work, but it can also help you grow your business in other ways. For example, if you're looking to add new products or services to your business, the people you know may be able to point you in the right direction or connect you with the right resources. Or, if you're looking for advice on how to run your business better, the people in your network may have some valuable insights to share. The bottom line is that networking gives you access to a wealth of knowledge and resources you wouldn't have. And that's why investing time and energy into building strong relationships with the people in your industry is essential. How to Build Relationships So how do you build relationships with the people in your industry? There are a few key things you can do: • Get involved with trade associations and professional organizations. This is a great way to meet new people and expand your network. • Attend industry events and trade shows. These are great places to meet potential customers and referral partners. • Stay active on social media. Social media is a great way to connect with potential clients and referral partners—and it doesn't cost anything to use! Building relationships is essential for any business—but it's especially important if you're in a service-based industry such as plumbing, HVAC, or electrical work. Strong relationships can lead to new referrals, advice from experienced professionals, and access to valuable resources—all of which can help you grow your business. So make an effort to get involved with trade associations and professional organizations, attend industry events and trade shows, and stay active on social media. Doing so will give you a leg up on the competition—and help ensure that your business is booming for years to come. How to Gamify Your HVAC Business for Greater Success If you're looking for ways to increase productivity and engagement from your HVAC team, you may want to consider gamification. Gamification is the process of adding game-like elements to non-game activities in order to increase excitement and motivation. When done right, gamification can be an incredibly effective tool for boosting productivity in any business. So how can you gamify your HVAC business? Here are a few ideas to get you started: 1. Implement a points system for completed tasks. 2. Give out prizes for employees who reach certain milestones. 3. Put up a leaderboard in the break room so everyone can see who's in the lead. 4. Make it fun by finding out what makes your team excited. 5. Get creative and come up with your own ideas! Gamification is a great way to increase productivity and engagement from your team. Adding game-like elements to your business can make work more fun and exciting for everyone involved. Try implementing some of the ideas listed above and see how it goes! You may be surprised at how much of a difference it makes.   Please join my free Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/thetradeschools YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrPl4lUyKV7hZxoTksQDsyg Follow me at: https://www.instagram.com/coreyberrier/ www.linkedin.com/in/coreysalescoach https://thetradeschools.com/ download my #1 bestseller, "9 Simple Steps to Sell More $H!T" with this link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B2C3HHMC

This week we're covering the artists behind the official White House portraits, the artist and singer-songwriter Issy Wood, enslaved pottery artists, and American outsider artist Nellie Mae Rowe.  Official Obama Portraits Unveiled at the White House  The White House held a ceremony to unveil the official portraits of President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama. Better late than never, right?   Artist Robert McCurdy painted the official portrait of President Obama. He tells his subjects not to smile and to look directly into the camera to capture a transcendental moment.   Michelle Obama selected artist Sharon Sprung. Mrs. Obama's statement about how a girl like her was never meant to be in the White House is inspiring.   For more information on the Smithsonian portraits, check out podcast episode 127, Rise of the Black Portrait Artist  Portrait Artist Sharon Sprung  The identity of the presidential portrait artists is top secret, and it's usually revealed about a year after a former president leaves office.   Sharon Sprung painted the official portrait of first lady Michelle Obama. Although she completed it in 9 months, she had to keep the portrait and the fact that she'd done this important work secret for over 5 years!   She was inspired to paint portraits by the early death and memory of her father.   If you think you'd like to paint portraits, you can take my free class, 5 Simple Steps to Painting Portraits That Your Friends and Family Love  Art and Albums: Artist and Singer Songwriter Issy Wood  Artist and singer-songwriter Issy Woods (as well as Joni Mitchell) proves that it's possible to be a multi-passionate artist.   Her art and her music are provocative, and like the trial-blazer she is, her album is titled My Body Your Choice.   She's outspoken, opinionated, talented, and not afraid to let her art reflect her passions.   If you'd like to know more about how to generate hype around your work, you'll love hearing my conversation with Michael Schein, The Hype Handbook with Michael F. Schein  Enslaved Potters   There is a new exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art - Hear Me Now: The Black Potters of Old Edgefield, South Carolina.   One of the items exhibited by artist Dave Drake is a piece of pottery signed with his name Dave and the word “concatenation”   When I was researching and writing my book, Artpreneur, I was intentional about being inclusive. Too many books about art only talk about white, cisgendered men. Sharing the story of artists like Dave is important to  inspire the next generation of artists.  It isn't out until January, but you can get pre-order bonuses now!  The Art of Nellie Mae Rowe  The American artist Nellie Mae Rowe was in her 60's when she began to transform her Atlanta home into what she called her playhouse. It became a destination for artists until she passed away in 1982.  Check out her art in the book Really Free: The Radical Art of Nellie Mae Rowe.  

Communication breakdown is costing you millions In this episode of the Successful Life Podcast, I will discuss communication's importance in business. We discuss poor communication with your CCRs and service techs and how they cost you millions of dollars annually. You'll learn how I secret shop my customers and  how communication can increase or decrease your business's revenue by 20-30% a year.  Roy H. Williams, the wizard of Ads, was interviewed on  "To the point- home services podcast" with Chis Yano, CEO at RYNO Strategic Solutions. was so good this week! Roy and Chris discuss the cost of mass media, SEO, and Diamonds.  Roy H. Williams is the owner and creative director of Wizard Academy, an advertising agency in Austin, Texas. He is also the author of several books on marketing and advertising, including "The Wizard of Ads" and "Secret Formulas of the Wizard of Ads." Communication is Crucial It's no secret that communication is key to success in any business. But for HVAC and plumbing companies, communication is crucial. That's because poor communication can cost these companies big time – in terms of both money and customer satisfaction. Consider this: A recent study by the home services review website Angie's List found that communication problems are the number one reason customers are dissatisfied with their home service providers. In fact, 70% of survey respondents said they were unhappy with the way their provider communicated with them. And nearly half (45%) said they would never use that company again because of communication problems. What's more, those communication problems cost HVAC and plumbing companies an estimated $75 million annually in lost business, according to the study. So what can these companies do to improve communication and avoid losing customers? Here are a few suggestions: - Make sure your customer service representatives are adequately trained in communication. This means teaching them how to be clear and concise when speaking with customers, as well as how to listen actively. If you're in the home services industry, communication is key to keeping your customers happy. That's why it's essential to have a customer service representative available 24/7 to answer customer calls and emails. However, even with excellent communication with your customers, there's always the potential for hiccups in the process. One of the most significant hiccups can occur when it's time to follow up with customers. It's essential to have a system in place to ensure that all customers are followed up in a timely manner. This may mean utilizing a call center or answering service outside of regular business hours. No matter what system you use, communication is essential to keeping your customers happy and ensuring that they'll use your services again in the future. Key Talking Points of the Episode 1:50 Roy H. Williams- The Wizard of Ads 4:55 Importance of 2-way communication in dealing with business. 6:05 What's the benefit of it to HVAC, Plumbing, or any home services? 9:02 Engaging builds relations 11:42 After engaging, follow-up comes next 13:43 CSRs/CCRs wins customers through empathy- lack of it, they will lose them 16:45 Good communication reduces cancellations at the same time, increases business Empathy wins every time In business, communication is critical. Good communication can help to build rapport, trust and understanding between parties, while poor communication can lead to misunderstanding, mistrust, and even conflict. When communicating with customers, businesses should aim to add empathy, acknowledgment, and assurance to their communications in order to build strong relationships and achieve positive outcomes. By doing so, businesses can create a positive customer experience that leads to repeat business and referrals. Empathy involves putting yourself in another person's shoes and understanding their perspective. It's important to remember that everyone has different needs and wants, so it's essential to take the time to understand where they're coming from. Acknowledgment involves recognizing someone else's thoughts or feelings. This can be done verbally, non-verbally, or through actions. For businesses, acknowledgment can be a powerful tool for building customer rapport and trust. Assurance is about providing reassurance and instilling confidence. This can be done by communicating clearly and concisely and following through on promises made. By providing assurance, businesses can build customer loyalty and create a positive reputation. Good communication is essential for businesses of all sizes. By understanding the importance of empathy, acknowledgment, and assurance in communication, businesses can create strong relationships with their customers and achieve positive outcomes.

People can reverse their biological ages by eating healthy and by doing different things in their food choices. We drink ketones, we sometimes do fasting, we drink our water, eat our protein, do some weightlifting, move our bodies and get our steps in. It's not about doing a crazy amount in a short amount of time. It's about implementing small steps consistently over time. In that way, you can create a lifestyle of drinking your ketones, moving your body, being carb conscious, and doing the best that you can, and it all starts in your mind.

About Troy Duell: Troy Duell studied sports medicine and exercise physiology in college, has continued to educate himself on health and performance and has worked for 20 years in the pharmaceutical industry. His years in the industry opened his eyes to many things that were positive but also to many products and companies that were a lot less about creating healthy people and a lot more about healthy pocket books. COVID made him more convinced than ever that our healthcare system needs to be overhauled. Three things helped form his opinion: 1. Doctor that mentioned he eats whatever he wants and just takes a cholesterol medicine. He worked at one of the teaching institutions and this was his mindset. 2. Talking to doctors that started their own surgery centers which let me know that for the same procedure in their office that they did in a hospital surgery center did it for 7 to 10 times less. 3. The lack of accountability for those companies producing vaccines. How can we deny liability for companies that produce a product that is untested?   What We Discuss In This Episode: What have we learned when it comes to disease, specifically a virus and how we could deal with future outbreaks? How this could and should introduce a new day in medicine? Proactive vs reactive health. How Personal responsibility is key to your health- e.g. co-morbidities, exercise, diet and supplementation. We chat about the realities of COVID, behind the scenes, as well as from a patient and doctor perspective. What is the truth behind handling this kind of virus? Key natural ingredients that have studies to support your immune system- quercetin, vitamin D, zinc, vitamin C and copper. We take a deep dive into the world of supplementation and how we can get the “best bang for our buck” yet still have a balanced quality product. How do we change things?   Resources from Troy Duell: Order you supplements with coupon code: LLN Connect with Troy Duell:  Email: tduell@centurionlabs.com Website: https://www.centurionlabs.com Connect with Lynne: If you're looking for a community of like-minded women on a journey - just like you are - to improved health and wellness, overall balance, and increased confidence, check out Lynne's private community in The Energized & Healthy Women's Club.

In this re-release, Erin answers your questions about the effect of fragrance on your hormones - plus what to be aware of with the products we use on our bodies and in our home. Most people have no idea how harmful synthetic fragrances can be - or how often we are using them! The chemicals used to create or prolong these “fresh” scents impact our neurological health, metabolism, and immune system. We're bringing this topic back to the forefront because Erin will be doing a deep dive on autoimmunity here on the show soon, and exposure to certain chemicals is part of why autoimmune diseases are on the rise.

My name is Dr. Kyrin Dunston Welcome to The Hormone Prescription Podcast.   (00:59): Hey everybody. Welcome back to another episode of The Hormone Prescription with Dr. Kyrin. Thank you so much for joining me today. My guest, Dr. Venus, many of you saw on the Stop The Menopause Madness Summit, and you loved her. So I brought her on the podcast. She is an amazing woman who is a woman of many talents. Let me just say this she's very accomplished. You would never believe that she is the age that she is. She really looks like she's in her thirties and that's cuz she practices what she preaches. She has been a victim, if you will, or subject to caregiver syndrome all while being an elite fitness athlete. And she has thrived through that. Not only survived but thrived. And she's gonna talk to you about how you can start doing that yourself. Maybe you're in that sandwich generation, you've got older parents with health problems.   (01:55): You've got kids also, and that really can take a toll on your hormones and your health. If you're living it, you know what I'm talking about, or maybe you have family members who have lived it, it is a real thing. So I'll tell you about a Dr. Venus and then we'll get started. She's got some solutions for you. Dr. Venus is the biohacking and she's a board-certified physician of physical medicine and rehab. She has a thriving medical practice in California, and she's competed for 20 years as a national level fitness athlete. She's also a fitness trainer, and she's had clients ranging from single moms to professional athletes and an action film star. How exciting she's been a repeat guest on the TV series, the doctors, you might have seen her there , and she's been featured on several other shows, including NBC's today and American gladiators. And she contributes frequently to multiple health outlets, including I, her.com and oxygen magazine. She has a firsthand story of living through and thriving through caregiver syndrome. And we're gonna dive into it now. Welcome Dr. Venus, Hey,   (03:05): How are you doing?   (03:06): I'm doing great. I'm really excited to have you on today. You have such vast experience in so many areas. We had to talk about what to talk about, and I know that you'll weave all of your experience, knowledge and brilliance into the conversation, but I thought it's super important to focus on caregiver syndrome because this isn't something that I haven't ever covered in the podcast. It's part of your personal experience, and you have some great tips to help people. And so I thought we would dive into that first. And I'm wondering if you can talk a little bit about what caregiver syndrome is and a bit about your story.   (03:51): Caregiver syndrome in general is just all of the symptoms that you experience when you have a physical, emotional and mental exhaustion from caring for somebody. Now of course, this can be caring for a loved one, or it can be caring for someone on the job for people who actually act as caregivers. A lot of times people think about caregiver syndrome being a lot of the fatigue and the overall fatigue and lethargy that you feel when you are caring for an elder. But certainly caregiver syndrome could be for new mothers who are caring for their children. So caregiver syndrome can affect pretty much anyone when they are directly involved in caring for someone else.   (04:38): Okay. And so who's mostly affected by caregiver syndrome. What happens? Why does it occur and how might someone know that they're having this?   (04:48): Well, oftentimes, especially when you're talking about caregiving for a loved one, this is something that happens because you are so intent. You are oftentimes so emotionally   involved in making sure that your loved one is being taken good care of. Oftentimes you start to neglect those very important things that you must do in order to care for yourself, you will perhaps not eat as well. You don't dedicate enough time to relaxing and getting enough sleep on your own. These are things that often may happen because you're very concerned, which it's important to do so about making sure that your loved one gets the care that you want them to have. You may be feeling very exhausted. You may be feeling very frustrated. You may start feeling that you're noticing that your clothes are fitting more tightly because you simply are putting on more weight. These are all the things that can happen. You may be more irritable. You might notice that you are starting to become more irritable with taking care of your loved one. And that's actually something that I started noticing in my own life when I started taking care of my father. And that's when I knew immediately at that particular moment in time that I needed to make a change.   (06:09): Yeah, I remember a client. I had, we were working on her health. She had all kinds of cortisol problems. Her weight was going up. She was really struggling with that. Her doctor was treating her for anxiety and depression and then she was having trouble sleeping and with her sex drive and it was just all these things. And she really was the only one taking care of her mom, even though she had siblings. And when we talked about it, she was getting so much resentment that her siblings weren't helping her at all. She was just saying that she felt so put upon and she almost had become like a martyr and used it kind of that anger and resentment. And then her mom wasn't nice to her too. So put that on top. So there was a lot of conflict there. She was struggling sticking to the things that she knew she should eat to benefit her that were nurturing versus junk food.   (07:05): And so that was one thing that we talked about and she hadn't really seen this as a syndrome of any type, but she was the only one. So when we had the conversation about, wow, this is really common. It affects a lot of women in the 40 to 60 year old range. And it affects on men as well. And one of the ways that it often shows up is that people start having health problems themselves. And they don't realize how much of a stress, particularly on their cortisol, the actual physical caregiving, the emotional caregiving, the mental, the spiritual what a toll it's taking on them until they really talk about it and unpack it. And I find that it's not necessarily a common topic of conversation. Did you feel like that when you were going through it and as if you weren't supported by the public in general, it's not a topic of conversation. People didn't know what you were going through.   (08:07): Well, I thought for myself, I felt myself slipping into this hole or falling into it and staying there of apathy where I really didn't care about myself or my help. And I just kind of stayed in this pit. And for me it was almost like there was an element of shame to it as well, because this happened to me and my family because my father had a stroke as a rehab physician. This happens to be one of my specialties caring for, for stroke patients and making sure that their families are educated in what's involved in caring for a loved one who has stroke. So this is something that I specialize in and when it happens in my own family and I find myself very protective of my father, knowing that I know how things are supposed to go. So this is how it's going to go.   (09:03): And I need to watch to make sure that everything is going the right way. I became very involved in making sure he had the best perfect caregiving after his stroke. And of course, I'm the only one who can give that, right? Because I'm the doctor , I should be able to do this and no one else can do this. Only you Venus only you only me and being a fitness competitor as well. I had done this actually almost 20 years. I knew about nutrition. I knew about training. I knew how to stick to any nutrition and exercise program, despite whatever kind of crazy schedule I had, cuz I'd been doing this for 20 years. So me thinking I was the authority in taking care of a stroke patient and the authority in staying fit and healthy, I should be able to handle this no problem, but very quickly I began to just forget about myself because the work of maintaining my medical practice and making sure that my father was getting the perfect care from me was just too much for me to also squeeze in all of that nutrition and exercise stuff that I knew about as well.   (10:15): So that's where it started to become the caregiver syndrome, where I started neglecting some of my nutrition. I started neglecting the exercise that had become such a habit in my life. It was no longer a habit because my whole life kind of got flipped upside down into adding this whole other person that I was taking care of as perfectly as possible because I'm supposed to be the expert. So there was a, a bit of shame on my part in accepting the fact that this is where I had slipped to and fall into because I had held myself to a, a certain standard. So for me there was shame involved. But the thing that turned it around was that I was so tired. I was so exhausted. I had started gaining weight. I was sitting on the couch for just a little bit of a breather.   (11:07): When I heard my father ring the bell that calls for help whenever he needed something. And that bell triggered such a feeling of anger and frustration in me. And as I walked up towards his door, his bedroom door to take care of whatever he might need. I realized that there was this tension in my face that there was anger in my heart. And I realized I did not wanna enter that room, looking that way, feeling that way. Cuz I knew that was something he would certainly be able to sense and I never wanted him to feel like he was a burden to me. And that's when I realized I needed to do something to take better care of myself. So I didn't have those feelings. I didn't wanna feel frustrated, irritated, angry, or looked that way either.   (11:56): You know, I love that. And I think that sometimes what might be part of the difficulty with caregiver syndrome is that children and their parents can be, haven't worked through any conflict that they've had throughout their lives, that this situation could escalate it. And so I always encourage people in that situation to unpack any unresolved issues to iron them out so that they can be there for their loved one from a place of love and from a place of being grateful to have the opportunity to provide care in that way. This was part of my client's story. When we talked about it, she had a whole lot of unresolved resentment towards her mom. And so that was getting heaped on top of the fact that she really did come from a good place. She wanted to be there for her mom and she had all these unresolved issues. So when you take that and then the burden of having to spend so much time and energy every day, it really did get to a place where she was resentful of her mom every day. So was that the breaking point for you where you decided I have to do something different?   (13:09): It absolutely was. I knew that I did not what my father himself to fall into any kind of a depression again, I was kind of, for me, the motivating factor was love for my father. I did not. I wanted him to get the very best care and I felt like by ignoring my own care, I was not able to do that for him. That was really what I felt as my motivation, but it absolutely made me want to do something to get back on track for me. I had to start with just the simplest of things and all I did the very next morning was just get on my recumbent bike and I started just pedaling away for 10 minutes in the morning. The first thing I did, that's basically all I could   (13:54): Do. Okay. And so you had had a pretty rigorous health routine prior to all this and you had gone away from it. So you said, okay, what's one thing I can do today. You got on your RECU bike and how did that start changing things and what did you do next?   (14:12): Well, I really felt like it was important for me to do something, something that was more mobile than what I had been doing. And really that was how I started. I started with just 10 minutes a day. I slowly started to increase it by five minutes, 15 minutes. And then I went to 20 minutes. I just started becoming a little bit more mobile as I became more mobile and started increasing some physical activity. I felt myself feeling better and I felt myself even more motivated to do even more, which is of course the natural thing that happens in a human body when it becomes more physically active. So that's when I decided, okay, I've got this, I'm doing full half hour in the morning. Oh my goodness. I'm starting to get back there now. So let me start focusing on nutrition. So I decided I was just gonna start with, let me just focus on having the best breakfast that I can every morning and just make a healthier choice in the morning, rather than just stopping by to grab a coffee and donut on the way into the office. So that was my next step to just make a healthier choice for my first meal of the day.   (15:27): Okay. So little steps. And then what started to happen? What changed first?   (15:33): Again, more and more. I started feeling better. I felt like I was starting my morning off better. I had more physical activity now I was adding another element of eating healthier and that just again, one step at a time I started changing what I was doing. Then I started making better changes, healthier choices at lunchtime. And again, it was very, very simple to do. And then I was able to add some of the strength training that I was used to doing. Again, I was squeezing this in, but I was making a conscious effort to start adding strength training by doing just simple body weight exercises. And this was as simple as going to the kitchen and adding squat routine in right before I decided to do the dishes cuz I was squatting to load the dishwasher anyway. So again, there was just basic things that I was doing, but it would stimulate my brain to remember, okay, this is what I'm going to do now.   (16:35): Cause the other thing that's important to remember is I couldn't just jump into the gym and well I could have, but I couldn't just jump into the gym and return to that really rigorous and vigorous exercise routine that I had been used to when I was competing for fitness competitions, that type of routine likely would've led me to be extremely sore immediately after. And when that happens, it's super easy just to say, oh, forget this. I'm not going to exercise anymore. And that could delay you for another couple of weeks and it's easy to, to fall back off the wagon when you overdo it in the beginning.   (17:12): Mm-Hmm right. That's a great point. I'm just wondering on average, how many hours a day were you spending, helping your parents? I think that the amount of time that you spend really can put a crunch on your free time. So how much time were you personally spending and then how can someone proactively navigate this journey? If they know, oh, I'm gonna have to spend two hours with my parent every day and a half hour getting there and a half hour back. So that's three hours as it's gonna cut into their time. What information can you give people to help them consciously navigate this? So they don't end up having caregiver syndrome, but maybe they could avoid it.   (17:52): Absolutely. I think that it's really important to calculate how much care is really involved. If I had to add it all up, I would say at least six hours in the day I actually moved in with my parents. I had a home for both my mom and dad when they moved out to join me here in California and I moved into that home so that I could help my mom take better care of my father. I did have a caregiver to assist my father at something of course that we recommend for patients once they leave the rehab hospital after a stroke. So I did have a caregiver, but again, me being very overprotective, I felt like I wanted to oversee so much of it when the caregiver first came over. So there was an element of trusting the caregiver that was involved. And again, this was a lot to do with me, just recognizing that I didn't have to be the only caregiver who was there physically to make sure things were run perfectly. And again, this is all about having the right team around you, involving my mother, involving the caregiver, making sure that I'm comfortable with their knowledge, by giving them the appropriate training on how to provide that care. So understand how much time you do have in the day, how much time you can allocate and then work with a team of some sort, whether it's a hired caregiver, whether it's your family and work together so that you really trust each other to take care of the person that you want to make sure gets that care.   (19:41): Yeah, because if you don't take care of it, then it can end up in burnout. I guess it goes past just caregiver syndrome to caregiver burnout. And nobody wants that. My client was really on the verge of that. So now along with your career, as a physician and helping with your father and helping families who have, because you're in the rehabs medicine sector, you help families to rehabilitate and help their loved ones to recover. You're a fitness model for many years and you help people with weight loss and you have a lot of tips. And I think that people would love to hear, how did you maintain your weight and your health? I mean, we heard about you had slacked off a little and you started back on the bike and doing squats with the dishwasher. I could visualize that , I'm thinking, could I squat and load the dishwasher? I don't know. I'm gonna have to try it. and so what are some other things that people can do? Maybe they don't have a loved one that they're caring for, but they want to lose weight. And I know that's something you help people with, or maybe they have a lot of pressures. Maybe it's not a loved one. Maybe they just have a very demanding job or a lot of social activities or obligations. What are some of the main tenants that you give people to follow to help them maintain or lose weight?   (21:08): Well, I think that especially coming outta the whole caregiver syndrome life that I had and trying to resume some semblance of self care, I realized how important it was to have a lot of that knowledge that I had prior to that in really optimizing my fitness level for competition and being able to squeeze that into a busy work schedule. So being able to have that knowledge was certainly really important for me in resuming any kind of training of any kind. And I think that it's important to really understand how to negotiate, that, how to fit a fit lifestyle into a busy schedule. And that's what I like to do for all of my clients and even my patients when I'm trying to encourage them to incorporate exercise and nutrition into their life, because of course doing that can help my rehab patients and my pain management patients that I see in the office as it decreases inflammation in the body.   (22:16): So probably the number one tip I start off with for everyone. And we've touched on this a little bit already, is to make sure that you are managing your cortisol levels, that you are managing the stress in your life because it's so very important because cortisol and all of its pathways that it acts on in your body can do so much to basically counteract anything that you're trying to do in terms of staying fit and being healthy and losing weight. If that is your goal. So start off with a very specific plan on being able to manage that. And a lot of that, I tell people as they're about approaching any kind of a health and fitness plan, they get concerned about, oh, I need to do an hour of cardio a day. I need to be prepping all my meals. I need to know exactly how many calories of this I'm doing.   (23:15): I need to make sure I'm, there's so much that they get worried about that. They become overwhelmed with their diet and their nutrition and you get these spikes of cortisol and then your cortisol levels remain high and there's no balance there. And then they're struggling trying to figure out why is this not working? Well, you're all stressed out. it's not gonna work out if you're not, if you're all stressed out. So definitely having a, a plan to manage that is gonna be very important right off the bat. Even if you're starting with a very simple, deep breathing exercises sometime during the day on a daily basis, that at least is a starting point. The other thing I like to talk a lot about is making exercise manageable, cuz I think these are the things that are often hard for people to do because they say, I need to spend that hour on the treadmill, but it's not necessary to do that.   (24:12): You can start with just breaking it up into 10 minute chunks in a day, cuz you can get health benefits from that that's been shown. But what I like to do when you're really ready to take on more and get a little bit more intense with your exercise regimen, I like to tell people about doing high intensity interval training. This is something that people have heard a lot about. They've heard about interval training hit is often what it goes by high intensity interval training. But what I do notice is a lot of people don't really know what that is or they're doing it because they heard that it's what they're supposed to be doing. And then when I see what they think is a hit routine, it's not . So I think that education about that is, is really important. And the reason why hit has become so popular is because it can be done in shorter amounts of time. You can achieve really good benefit towards weight loss by doing a hit routine. But if you're not doing it correctly, then you're not getting the benefits that you think you're getting really intense exercise in short periods of time. And that short period of time is often the appeal that you're able to get. Mm-Hmm a good workout in such a short period of time. And   (25:30): So when you say they're not doing it right, can you tell people, cause some people are listening and going, am I doing it right? Tell, so tell us Dr. , how do they know?   (25:39): Well, high intensity interval training when you're speaking of any kind of interval training you're you're talking about exercising at a very high intensity and then breaking it up, alternating it with exercising at a lower intensity so that you're exercising a lot of people. If you're talking about even doing sprints, running on a treadmill, basically running at a high level on a treadmill and then slowing it down and going to more of a moderate level on that treadmill, just breaking that up and going back and forth. That's interval training. Now, if you are doing high intensity interval training correctly, that means that you are performing as high and as maximum of your performance level as possible. When you hit that high interval and then going to your low interval, you have to do that low interval for a long enough period of time that your body is able to recover, recover enough that you can truly reach that maximum potential.   (26:42): Again, when you are exercising, I often see people doing intervals with a ratio of maybe let's say 30 seconds, that you're exercising at a high intensity for 30 seconds. And then you're going back down to a lower intensity for another 30 seconds. Then you go up to a higher intensity again for another 30 seconds and you're alternating back and forth. Now in general, most people are not gonna be able to get full recovery, to be able to achieve that high intensity, that maximum intensity in just 30 seconds. That's just a one-to-one ratio in order to do high intensity interval training that you would generally need to spend more on the line of a one to two or as even as long as a one to six ratio. So if you're going to be doing a high intensity for 30 seconds, most people are gonna need a full 60 seconds of a lower intensity to get enough recovery time to hit that maximum potential again on their next high intensity interval. So it's the ratio. That's gonna be very important.   (27:48): So if people are going to some type of gym where it's a workout, that's being given to them, how can they know if it's true hit or not just by the length of the intervals and the capacity that you're using? (28:03): Exactly. It's for the most part, you're going to really, it's really a sense of feeling for themselves if you're going to a class and they're basically telling you what your inner world should be. This is often what most people find themselves in will go to a class. Perhaps it's even a cycling class and they wanna do some high intensity interval training. It's harder to do that in the class setting because everyone's recovery time is gonna be a little bit different. So what you are actually doing, if you're not getting full recovery, if you're not feeling that you're recovered enough and we can talk a little bit about this more, but that's gonna actually have to do with what your heart rate is at that time. And starting to know what those heart rate ranges are for you. Mm-Hmm , if you aren't fully recovered during that lower intensity interval, then if your group instructor takes you to a higher intensity again, right away, what you are actually doing is more of an aerobic workout.   (29:02): There's nothing wrong with doing an aerobic workout. Just know that the benefits that you're gonna get are gonna be different than a high intensity interval training. Most people wanna do that high intensity interval training because it's going to kind of keep their metabolism burning more fat for a longer period of time throughout the day when they're not exercising. That's one of the benefits that people love about high intensity interval training that the, the fat burning continues when they're not working out. You're not necessarily gonna get that if you don't get that recovery time. So if you're being led into another high intensity interval before you're fully recovered, just know that you are getting an aerobic exercise class and that's not necessarily a bad thing. Aerobic exercise is good for you too.   (29:49): Yeah, right. Yes. So get, I mean hit training and intermittent fasting. You can't go wrong doing both of those actually. And then what about weights? Cause I'm sure that's a part of your routine as well. And I think so many women are extremely confused about weights. I think a lot of women avoid them altogether. They go to resistance training. No, I don't do it. I see other women who use two and five pound weights, which in my humble opinion is probably not enough stress on the muscles than what's needed. And I think people are just confused. So help enlighten us   (30:29): Well again, this is something that's gonna be very, very individual for the person numbers are going to change depending how strong you become. As you continue to work out, you hopefully will continue to get stronger and be able to lift heavier weights. Oftentimes what I will tell people is to just start counting their reps because that's the repetitions because that's really the easiest way to start tracking how much weight you should be using when you are working two strength training and that resistance training. That's going to work on really toning your muscles. I'm not talking about bulking up your muscles because bulking is gonna require a lot of fine tuning of your nutrition. Again, that's another discussion. We can save, save that for a little bit, but just to get that really toned physique and stronger muscle structure, which is also very important for the human body.   (31:27): Your repetitions really should not be going any longer than about eight repetitions. When you do eight repetitions of any exercise, we'll just go with the most basic exercise I can think of right now, which is the bicep curl. You grab a weight, you start doing it up and down, up and down. You count to eight. If that last script is really difficult to do, and you might not be able to do another one without some sort of an assistance, then that amount of weight, the weight of that dumbbell is appropriate for you to do true strength training. You've done eight repetitions and you are about maxed out. You wouldn't be able to do another one unless you really had some assistance. That is the right wait for you to use in strength training. At that time, of course, as you get stronger, you might start being able to go higher.   (32:19): You might be able to reach 10 without, before someone would have to assist you. If you were at 10, then that means you need to grab a heavier weight and go even higher. So that's the point where you would start increasing the amount of weight you're getting. If you are going more than 10, 11, 12, again, that is rate you are still gonna gonna be getting some sort of a workout, but you're going to be achieving different things. When you're getting up to 10 to 15 repetitions while holding a weight that is going to be conditioning for your muscles, but you're not really gonna be doing the strength training that is going to help in terms of really shaping your body.   (33:00): Okay? And I know some people are wondering, I think one of the reasons why many women use lower weights is they're afraid they're going to bulk up, which has not been my observation. That that's a problem and loss of muscle and bone mass is those are two of the hugest contributors to deterioration of our health. As we age contributing to cognitive decline, osteoporosis, hip fracture, all kinds of things. But I know there are some women listening who are like, okay, he you're, you've done fitness modeling. You know how to get that, but really nice muscular definition. Tell us your secrets. So please share your secrets with them.   (33:40): Well, again, it's going to depend upon how much muscle you really wanna show. Some people really like that define the little Deloid cap on their shoulders. Some people don't, again, it's a matter of your personal preference in terms of what you want your body to feel like. And of course it also happens to matter on what your body is naturally going to develop. There's a lot of genetics involved as well. However, when you're working out, if you see that when you're doing eight pound repetitions, that your muscles are really starting to take shape, then you're doing great in terms of what your exercise is going to be able to do. If you're doing the eight repetitions and you're not really starting to see the shape that you're liking, that may be an indication that your nutrition is often your muscles. Aren't getting all of the nutrition it needs in order to appropriately shape your body.   (34:35): Oftentimes that involves the protein that you're taking in. So this again differs from person to person, but you can think about numbers along the lines of three quarters of a gram to one full gram of protein. When you're talking about how much protein that you want on a daily basis on your compared to your body weight. So when you're getting that much protein in, then you're talking about the body builders, I'm super heavy type of diet. That's going to get you that bulk, most women are not taking that much. So you would only need to take more along the lines of a quarter to half of a gram, if you wanted to just get more shape.   (35:26): So just to translate and clarify what you're saying for people, women who want to bulk up like a body builder, they would take a gram protein for pound of body weight. So if you're 150 pounds, you eat 150 grams of protein, but if you just want, have average muscle mass, it would be about half, half that or five grams. Yeah. Correct. All right. Just wanted to, so   (35:49): There's a lot of, again, there's a lot of fine tuning of your nutrition when it comes to bulking up. And if you're not getting that huge amount of protein, as well as carbohydrates, there's a lot of hydrates into doing that as well because your body needs fuel to build that much muscle up as well. Most women are simply not going to eat that mini grams of carbohydrates and protein in order to bulk up to that body Boulder level. So I wouldn't necessarily worry about doing that, but you may be just needing to increase your protein level more. If you see that your muscles aren't taking the shape that you would like.   (36:27): I had a medical assistant who worked for me a few years ago and she did bikini competitions. And I had no idea how much work went into preparing for that. It was a real lesson for me. I mean, her diet was so regimented so far out from the competition, but week by week as to the macronutrient proportions and grand, she had to eat and her work out schedule, it was really an extra part-time job. And she was a wife and a mom. I mean, she looked amazing, but I think a lot of us, when we see women in these competitions, at least I used to think, oh, she's born that way. It's her genetics. And you know, it's really not a big deal until I saw that this is an entire part-time job for her. It was very strict, very regimented. And it was emotionally challenging. Also I saw the pressure on her, but she loved it. So ,   (37:28): It's definitely for someone. And if you can handle that type of pressure and that type of stress, then certainly go for it. But that's, again, that's very much of an athlete's mentality yes. To, to compete at that level. And again, you don't need to do that in order to look great and be healthy. So you don't need to compare yourself to those athletes.   (37:52): Yes. Athletes, and that's the right word. And then they're in a different category. Cause I don't look at football players and think, wow, that's so regimented, how good do that? You know, I, but I give myself a break. I don't have to be like the bikini or fitness competition women. So as we wrap up, we've covered two very important topics. And there's one thing we topic we haven't covered on that applies to both that. I think we'd be remiss if we didn't touch on and that is sleep. Can you talk about the importance of sleep for not only weight loss and maybe you preparing for your competitions, but for preventing and treating caregiver syndrome and burnout?   (38:31): Oh my gosh. Sleep is so important in absolutely every single thing that you mentioned, it's important in terms of preventing caregiver syndrome, preventing that burnout simply because your body needs that recovery time. So very important. The recovery that you get during the night to actually fuel yourself during the day is so important to making sure that you are physically and mentally still able to thrive during the day. So absolutely must be able to do that. It's also important because if you are trying to do something like lose weight, there are various hormonal changes that occur specifically during your sleep that can affect your ability to do that. Of course, we talk about recovery and your body being able to refuel itself during the evening times, but there's also specific changes that happen in terms of your appetite, hormones lectin and Graylin. And oftentimes those hormones change such that you start to want to eat more, that appetite hormone that makes you want to eat more.   (39:48): That starts to go up when you're not getting enough sleep. So you need to get enough sleep so that you don't have these cravings of wanting to eat when you are awake. So that is another important thing. I really think that sleep in it in and of itself is important in terms of duration. But it's also important in terms of when you're getting that sleep, there are different cycles that your body goes through different cycles of sleep that your gut body goes through when you get your rest. And when you're able to sleep earlier in the day, then you're going to get more of that restorative sleep. That's really going to help you during the, the morning and the rest of the day. So if you're able to fall asleep a little bit earlier in the evening, I say, get maybe even two to three hours before midnight, you're able to do that. You're gonna end up getting more restorative sleep. As far as duration goes, there are a lot of different opinions, a lot of different research based on all of the different research that I've looked at. The minimum number that I'm looking at is around seven and a half hours of sleep. So that's my recommendation in terms of how much sleep you should be getting so that you get the benefits of the recovery time, the restorative effects for your body B and the changes in your appetite that they don't happen as well.   (41:15): Yeah, seven and a half hours at least earlier better. And I know some women say that they wake up early and then I say, well, what time are you going to bed? And they say 11 or 12 o'clock well, if you get bed earlier, you might stay asleep longer. But I think that's super important. What you mentioned about the leptin and grillin changing with sleep, and when you're sleep deprived, then you get cravings, food cravings, and nobody wants that. And for caregivers, you know, it is so cortisol, restorative, you detox during your sleep and with their, especially your brain detoxifies, you also consolidate memories. So sleep, I call it the nectar of life. And if you're not getting enough nectar in your life, you need to get more sleep nectar.   (42:02): I love that it will help   (42:04): it will help your way. It will help if you are in a crunch for care syndrome or burnout, but even just for all of us who have such full lives right now, I D know about U Venus, but between my phone and my iPad and my computer and the mail and all the things that are going on in the it's like, it feels a little overwhelming how you feel that way right now.   (42:29): Definitely. Which is why I definitely my time away from my electronics   (42:35): Yeah, just shut it all down. And I had to do that earlier today. Just go for a walk in nature, look at the dragon flies and the trees and the birds. And so anyway, this has been a great conversation. I think it we've covered a lot of important topics. You're such a role model for women everywhere. You accomplish so much, and you do it with such style and equanimity, everybody listening. I've been around Dr. Venus, and she's just the most calm, humble, loving person. You would never know that she's accomplished all the things that she's accomplished and that she helps so many people.

About Dr. David Prologo: Dr. David Prologo is a dual board-certified interventional radiologist and obesity medicine specialist. Dr. Prologo has spent more than twenty years specifically analyzing the phenomenon of diet attrition—why do diets always fail? More importantly, when they do fail, why do we blame the patients for that failure? That journey led Dr. Prologo to perform first in human advanced interventional procedures to manage obesity, diabetes, and other metabolic conditions. It further led to the identification of the catching point—a clear pivot point beyond which calorie restriction and exercise are easier for patients. He has served on numerous national and international committees, as an invited editor for multiple peer-reviewed journals, a council member for the true health initiative, and has published many scientific papers. Dr. Prologo continues to advocate for those who are in pain or struggle with weight loss – particularly driving an agenda of acceptance, inclusion, and love.  What We Discuss In This Episode: Prologo talks about his exciting book, The Catching Point Transformation. Dr. Prologo's narrative non-fiction book explains why weight loss efforts so often fail, and how to change that. Why is it that so many people fail when attempting to lose weight on their own? What can we do differently so that we can be successful? How can we change the composition of our body so that our bodies are in the “right state” to be more successful with weight loss? What is the hunger nerve freezing procedure? Explain why do feel you're an advocate for people?

When discussing the aids, many people think solely of their hands and legs when, arguably, the most important aid is your seat because the biggest avenue of communication between you and your horse is through your bum to your horse's back.That being said, your seat is one of the most difficult aids to master, it's also (in our opinion) one of the more difficult aids to explain and teach since so much of a good seat depends on the rider having a good level of feel.So, in this podcast episode, we've done our best to explain all the different things your seat can do, how to develop a good seat, and how to use your seat and weight aids correctly.(Please note: This is an updated and expanded version of our previous 'How to Use Your Seat' episode)-------------If you would rather read the article on our blog, click here - https://howtodressage.com/for-the-rider/how-to-use-your-seat/To take our Big Dressage Quiz, click here - https://howtodressage.com/big-dressage-quiz/To view our equestrian books and training diaries on Amazon, click here - https://amzn.to/2SFL633     To check out The Complete Online Dressage Course, click here - https://course.howtodressage.comIf you would like to follow our Facebook Page, click here - https://www.facebook.com/HowToDressage/FREE DOWNLOAD: 7 Simple Steps to Boost Your Dressage Scoreshttps://howtodressage.com/7-simple-steps/-------------ADVERTISEMENTSThe Bo & Luke Show™Personal and Professional Development to help you be, know, and DO better!Listen on: Apple Podcasts Spotify

The Future of HVAC is Green The green movement is gaining traction in the sales process for home services. Many companies are investing in sustainable practices, products, and technologies. The definition of green jobs is also evolving. There are now green opportunities in sales, marketing, sustainable building products, real estate, and many other vocations. With new sustainable technologies and easy access to renewable resources, it's becoming more accessible than ever to switch to environmentally friendly practices and choose green alternatives. In the sales process, there are a few key things to keep in mind when selling green home services. First, educate yourself about the different types of sustainable practices and available products. There are many options, so it's important to know what your customers are looking for. You can find information about sustainable practices online, in home improvement stores, or in-home energy audits. Second, explain the benefits of sustainable practices to your customers. Many people are interested in saving money on their energy bills but may not be aware of all the other benefits of sustainability. For example, sustainable practices can help reduce greenhouse gas emissions and improve air quality and water conservation. Finally, show your customers that you're committed to sustainability. This can be done by using green products in your home or office, supporting local green businesses, and becoming involved in environmental organizations. When customers see that you're invested in sustainability, they'll be more likely to trust and do business with you. Selling green home services is a great way to be on the cutting edge of the home services industry. By educating yourself about sustainable practices and products, you'll be able to offer your customers the best possible options for their home. And by showing your commitment to sustainability, you'll build trust and credibility with your customers, leading to more business. As utility rates continue to rise, sustainable technologies like cold climate heat pumps and inverter technology are becoming increasingly valuable investments. If you live in an area that experiences freezing temperatures, you may want to consider installing a cold climate heat pump. These pumps are electric and provide reliable comfort while also being safer for the environment. Inverters also make heat pumps more environmentally friendly by efficiently controlling motor speed and preventing energy waste. After a natural disaster, many homeowners and business owners face the daunting task of rebuilding. While some damage is too extensive to repair, replacement is the best option in many cases. This is especially true when it comes to HVAC systems.  New Regulations New regulation changes make it easier for homeowners and businesses to replace their HVAC systems with more environmentally friendly options. In the past, the easiest option was usually to replace damaged building systems with an equal product replacement after a natural disaster. However, this is no longer the best course of action. Now, homeowners and businesses have the opportunity to upgrade their HVAC systems and make a positive impact on the environment. By replacing old, inefficient HVAC systems with new, more efficient ones, homeowners and businesses can save money on their energy bills and help reduce their carbon footprint. Suppose you're considering replacing your HVAC system after a natural disaster; research all your options. There are a variety of environmentally friendly HVAC systems on the market, and the right one for you will depend on your specific needs and budget. With so many options available, there's no reason not to switch to a more sustainable HVAC system. We all can participate in the green movement in various ways, but motivating people and companies can still be challenging. Action is the single biggest hurdle to adopting green trends. Electrification and efficiency upgrades are the types of improvements we should push for in the HVAC sector. This will not only provide carbon reduction but also provide a significant return on investment over time. Although educating a market and taking action takes time, the global energy crisis and the cost of fossil fuels recently hitting an all-time high are accelerating interest in renewable energy sources and technologies. There are many ways that we can reduce our reliance on fossil fuels and make our buildings more efficient. One way is to switch to electric heating and cooling systems. Electric systems are much more efficient than fossil fuel-based systems and produce zero emissions. Another way to improve efficiency is to upgrade insulation and ensure that windows and doors are properly sealed. These simple measures can reduce heat loss by up to 30 percent. In addition to making buildings more efficient, we also need to use less energy overall. One way to do this is to switch to LED lighting, which operates 50-80 percent less energy than traditional incandescent bulbs. We can also use solar power to heat and cool our buildings. Solar energy is free once you have installed the necessary equipment and produce zero emissions. What's Next? The heating and cooling industry also sees increased research and development in green technology. There are opportunities to sell these new advances. Say a building runs on renewable sources and wants to install an updated HVAC system - the owner would be interested in an efficient, eco-friendly design that wouldn't put too much strain on the power grid. This is where HVAC companies can step in and offer their latest and most fantastic products. As we see a shift towards renewable energy, the HVAC industry must keep up with the latest advancements. By doing so, we can help buildings run more efficiently and support the move away from fossil fuels. If you're looking to save money on your energy bill and help the environment, investing in a green HVAC system is a great way to do so. With the Inflation Reduction Act set to provide tax breaks for those who use clean energy, now is the perfect time to switch to a more sustainable option. Not only will you save money, but you'll also be doing your part to help the planet.

5 Simple Steps to Control Panic Attacks When Surviving a Toxic Relationship with a Narcissist - The AWARE Method for Overcoming Panic Attacks (Actionable Self-Help Tips) - Have you ever had a panic attack that felt like it was a direct result of dealing with a narcissist? If you have, you are not alone. In fact, most survivors of toxic relationships with narcissists report that, due either to C-PTSD or simply dealing wth a narcissist regularly. And often, panic attacks and anxiety continue well into recovery. And, it's tougher when it evolves into a full anxiety attack or a panic attack. This is something that most of us will experience at some time in our lives, and that can ultimately become crippling as you worry that heading out into public spaces could result in fainting or that falling asleep could trigger an episode. Fortunately, several proven methods help you get through panic attacks. With the right approach, these methods can be highly effective at controlling the problem and preventing them altogether. One such option is to use the ‘AWARE' strategy. What is AWARE? AWARE is an acronym that stands for: Acknowledge and Accept Wait and watch Actions to make yourself comfortable Repeat End The key to this is essentially to accept that the attack is happening and not try to fight it. Instead, you simply acknowledge it and then ‘watch' it as you do your business as usual. The very best way to fight a panic attack? To continue acting as though it's not happening. When you first notice a panic attack begin, you will find that the symptoms can be somewhat similar to what you imagine a heart attack to be like. This is distressing and creates much more anxiety. Other people are afraid of anxiety attacks themselves because they dislike the experience. That's why it's common to start worrying about the panic attack and whatever triggered it. This subsequent panic can lead to escalation and ultimately result in the individual passing out of collapsing. And this, in turn, is why it's so important not to try and ‘combat' the effects of a panic attack through sheer will. Instead, you can find that it goes away much more quickly by ignoring the panic attack, recognizing it for what it is, and being comfortable and allowing it to run its course. What's more, is that once you lose the fear of the symptoms, it will eventually stop happening altogether. Of course, it is still important to try and remove yourself from any potential danger – which may mean pulling over if you are driving or removing yourself from a public space.

I'm Not a regular Sales Guy If you want to be successful in HVAC or plumbing sales, you can't just be a "regular" sales guy. You need to understand the new technology and how companies are run today. HVAC and plumbing have both gotten very modern, and you need to be up-to-date on the latest trends and technologies to be successful. Donut runs might have worked in the past, but they won't cut it anymore. You need to be knowledgeable about what you're selling and show that you're invested in helping your customers find the best solution for their needs. With the right approach and Coaching, you can be a top HVAC or plumbing salesperson. The Department of Energy Tax Rebates The Department of Energy has changed the standards for HVAC ratings. This means that not only the ratings themselves have changed, but also the way that equipment is tested in order to achieve those ratings.Now, instead of just testing HVAC equipment in a room and measuring the results, they are actually hooking it up to ductwork in order to simulate real-world conditions. This provides a more accurate picture of how the equipment will perform once it's installed.If you're in the market for HVAC or plumbing sales, it's important to stay up-to-date on these changes so that you can make informed decisions about the products you're considering. By keeping abreast of these developments, you'll be able to choose the products that best meet your needs. As of January 2023, new rebates are available for HVAC and plumbing purchases. Up to $14,000 is available for qualifying purchases, making it a great time to upgrade your HVAC system. If you're in the market for a new HVAC system, be sure to ask your HVAC contractor about the new rebates. You could save big on your next purchase! If you're a contractor, HVAC or plumbing sales can be a great way to get tax rebates and credits. The government offers a variety of tax incentives for energy-efficient home improvements, and HVAC and plumbing systems are often eligible for these rebates. To take advantage of these programs, simply ask your HVAC or plumbing distributor if they offer any tax rebates or credits.

And more importantly is helping offset the obesity pandemic and provide more health and life to his following. Bryce enjoys world travel and is a fitness expert, coach, author, and inspirational leader. What We Discuss In This Episode: Bryce talks a little bit about the obesity crisis. Certainly the last couple years have been very challenging for humanity - with COVID 19 -  which is certainly a serious thing. Studies have shown upwards of 80% of the people that were impacted with COVID from a severe perspective, whether hospitalized or even had incurred a fatality, were statistically obese. But way more than that, it actually just makes every single organ in your body work harder.  Bryce also discussed how our aging process can affect us. Whether you're a 20-year-old female, 30 year old female, or maybe a little bit later in life - when they're going through menopause and hormone changes, you should always, make sure that you're connected with your primary care doctor - and maybe even an endocrinologist, because, you know, there's a lot of things change during midlife. But really if we're looking at it from a fat loss perspective and really want to eliminate body fat, whether the midsection or any other unappetizing area, nutrition is actually going to be the best bet in terms of getting you lean burning body fat. We discuss the differences vegetarianism can made to your routine, and how this can be a challenge. But protein is the building block of lean muscle. And sometimes women are concerned about becoming big and bulky, so tend not to want to lift heavy weights. The reality of this situation is most guys have a hard time putting on lean muscle mass, unless they're really focused on resistant training just from the amount of testosterone in their body. So really at the end of the day, you need to focus on making sure that you have good protein source to make sure that your body can replenish your lean muscle, which if you put on lean muscle, what happens that will make you make you look toned, you'll burn more fat at a steady state, you'll look toned, which is obviously very important. Bryce answers a much-asked question - When you work out a lot what should you eat? Should you eat before you go work out? Is something specific that you should eat after you work out, um, because obviously burning the calories. And does your body processes things differently to somebody that's sedentary. Bryce shares that everyone's body's a little bit different. Also, everyone typically works out a different timeframe. Bruce typically likes to work out very earlier in the morning like a lot of female clients. His recommendation and his personal choice is to drink, at least 12 ounces of water, maybe even eat half of a banana, which is a carbohydrate source. However, if you eat too much, you can kind of feel bogged down or maybe bloated. So, there is that kind of balance. You just want to also make sure that you're not working out on an empty stomach because of blood sugar balance, because you could also get very lightheaded in your workout. So, hydration is really important. And then depending on your workout is it's always important to have a little bit of substance – Bruce feels his half banana that works for him! It's just enough substance to give him the energy he needs, but it also doesn't make him feel over full, bogged down or depleted of energy as he's going through the exercise. After you've exercised. that's actually where your body is primed to basically take on calories. So, you definitely should have a source of protein, whether it's a protein shake or a lean piece of protein within 45 minutes of your exercise. And really what that does is your body's breaking down muscle fibers, and the protein in your body is actually restoring those muscle fibers. You're able to build them back quicker, leaner and denser, which actually creates more toning in your body and burns more calories also too, typically speaking, especially if you've gone through a really intense training session and your body's going to be depleted of energy. The flip side of that is if you have a lot of sugar, as an example, those are simple carbohydrates and your body stores them to fat right away. So, you just want to stay away from sugar and simple carbohydrates as, as much as possible, but that said, you do need to refuel your body within 45 minutes of working out. And it's important to have a protein source, as well as a carbohydrate source to replenish your, your, your body. Bryce shares some interesting science and studies showing that the human body is very dynamic. He talks about how they design programs for the mature woman as opposed to a young woman. Bryce has had clients in their late fifties, 60s start programs and while it may take a little longer to “ramp up” the body, it's never too late to start - and you can definitely make really strong progress and really, you know, have a better quality of life.  Of course, the earlier you can start the better it is, the longer you wait, the harder it is. So that's just more incentive to really start now. Even if you're listening in and you're thinking I haven't exercised in a long time - I get that. I'm not going to sugar coat it. It could be tough at first. But after a few short weeks – and better still, after a couple months of you setting a mark for three times a week, that's going to have incredible long-term benefits for you and your health. So, get started – or keep pushing further.
