If we were starting our health and fitness journeys over today, these are the 5 critical lessons we would apply from day one. In this episode, we break down the biggest mistakes we made, what we'd do differently, and how you can skip the trial and error to fast-track your own success. We cover: ✔️ The importance of tracking your workouts and data—stop wandering through the gym without a plan ✔️ Why spending more time at maintenance calories (instead of constant dieting or bulking) is the real key to sustainable progress ✔️ How to avoid wasting money on unnecessary supplements and which ones are actually worth it ✔️ The power of having a clear vision and purpose behind your fitness goals to stay motivated long-term ✔️ Why daily movement outside of workouts is a game-changer for overall health and fat loss This is the advice we wish someone gave us at the start. If you're just beginning—or even if you've been at it for a while—this episode will help you avoid common pitfalls and focus on what really matters.

We put on our finest white spandex for this amazing episode! The main topic was a new review study on protein needs for endurance athletes. The authors used a cool method of isotope labeling to argue that endurance athletes need more protein than traditional recommendations. The nutrition revolution is not just about carbs! And this one was full of great topics! Other topics: the announcement of an Unbreakable 2 documentary heading into Western States, Kilian Jornet's sustained dominance since the first Unbreakable was filmed, the 1-year anniversary of the bike crash, Tailwind High-Carb, our questions about protein recommendations, increased power and weight in professional cycling, torpedo bats dominating the conversation in baseball, mile times of the Houston basketball team, VO2 max estimates from your watch across different sports, nutrition on race week, the "yips" in running, balancing intensity with cross training, maintaining confidence when changing jobs, overdressed walking for heat training, and balancing training with studying for the bar exam.Thank you so much for being here in the year since the accident. Showing up each week has been a backbone of our lives, and we appreciate you so much.

Learning how to train well is a lifelong pursuit - and no matter how much experience you have, there's always a new level to reach. Listen and learn how capable you really are, and how this mindset carries over to other areas of life. Sponsor: LMNT DrinkLMNT.com/MarcusFilly

In this episode of 100% Real with Ruby, I'm joined by Max Waldron, a coach, strength expert, and gym owner who has navigated multiple dimensions of the fitness industry. Together, we dive deep into the often-misunderstood differences between coaching and training, the mental and emotional barriers holding people back, and why fat loss isn't sustainable as a lifestyle. Max brings his no-BS approach to challenge the fitness myths that keep you stuck, while providing a fresh perspective on building the body and life you truly want. This conversation is packed with actionable insights, powerful mindset shifts, and tools to help you break free from frustration and step into progress. Whether you're a coach, a client, or someone who's been spinning their wheels for years, this episode will make you think differently about what it means to succeed in your health and fitness journey. Don't miss it!Most of us already know what to do. Eat better, move more, be consistent—right? But if it were that simple, why would so many still feel stuck? The truth is, it's not about knowledge; it's about what's stopping you from following through.Fat loss isn't sustainable long-term, and trying to balance it with life often leads to frustration. Fat loss should be viewed as a temporary phase, followed by maintenance or building phases.Measure What MattersObsessively tracking every metric can detract from focusing on meaningful progress. Measure the variables that truly align with goals, such as consistency and effort, rather than arbitrary metrics like scale weight.Many clients fail to appreciate their progress because they live in a scarcity mindset, focusing on what they lack instead of what they've achieved.Muscle is not bulky; it is sculpted and compact. Building muscle creates a leaner, stronger look, and achieving this requires fueling the body and training effectively. Addressing common fears of looking "too bulky" helps educate clients on the value of strength training and adequate nutritionCreating the Right EnvironmentSuccess often stems from a supportive environment, such as meal prepping, structuring workouts, and reducing decision fatigue.The Danger of Focusing Solely on Scale Weight or trying to make fat loss sustainableOver-reliance on the scale as a measure of success can undermine progress. Shifting focus to performance, strength, and habits is more productive.Key Insight: Addressing the emotional attachment to the scale helps clients find fulfillment in non-scale victories.Even perceived setbacks provide valuable insights for future progress. Clients are never truly starting over—they're building on past experiences. Reframe "failure" as an opportunity to learn and grow, fostering resilience and a growth mindset.Sustainability isn't achieved through perfect plans but by aligning mindset with actions and focusing on intrinsic motivation.Strength training fosters intrinsic motivation by creating enjoyment in the process and measurable progress beyond aesthetics.Further Knowledge: Strength training also provides a tangible sense of accomplishment, reinforcing clients' commitment to their goals.Sacrifices and Realistic Expectations (1:03:59-1:07:42):Achieving goals often requires more effort and sacrifice than initially expected. However, the trade-offs must align with what the client values most.Insight: Helping clients evaluate their willingness to make sacrifices ensures alignment with their deeper goals and life priorities.Training Intensity and FocusMany don't train with enough intensity to see significant progress. Simplified, structured programs with a focus on effort can yield better results. prioritize progressive overload in their training and focus on quality over quantity.

Jem Arnold takes a break from his PhD studies to discuss the implications of a recent meta review and systematic analysis on how training intensity distributions impact VO2max and time trial performance, on which he is a coauthor. We also dig into the methods behind a paper like this, and the statistical distributions of performance itself and how that affects interpretation. We also discuss his doctoral studies on flow limitations in the iliac arteries, the role of NIRS, and long term implications of training with such issues, plus his blog, VO2max training, and more.

Whether you're a passionate cyclocross fan or just curious about the sport, this episode is packed with insights, inspiration, and everything that makes bike racing such a dynamic and evolving discipline.Today, we're joined by Antoine Huby, a rising talent in cycling from the Brittany region of France. Antoine made a name for himself in cyclocross, winning the U23 French Championship in 2021, before making waves on the road in 2023 with standout performances, including a win at the U23 Course de la Paix, a second-place finish at Liège–Bastogne–Liège U23, and a top-five at the Tour Alsace. His rapid rise caught the attention of Soudal Quick-Step, where he is now in his second season.With the Cyclocross World Championships happening this weekend in Liévin, northern France—just a short drive from his home—it's the perfect time to hear from Antoine about his training, race strategies, and technical skills that make cyclocross such an essential foundation for top road racers.

Testosterone (T) is a hormone all men are familiar with at this point. It's become a very hot topic and, whether or not to increase testosterone naturally or with Testosterone Replace Therapy (TRT), has become an increasingly debated question. Testosterone is recognized as the hormone to improve energy, muscle mass, overall health and vitality, and personal performance.  My guest today, Simmo, is a man who has become immersed in the world of improving testosterone rates in men and male optimization. Today, we talk about the key strategies of boosting testosterone naturally, at what point a man should consider TRT, what function of the body, if not improved, hinders the processing of testosterone, how your workout might be hindering the production of T, what role the nervous system plays in hormone optimization, and how a brotherhood of men is an often-overlooked factor of overall male health.  SHOW HIGHLIGHTS (00:00) Episode Intro (00:40) Boosting Testosterone Naturally   (06:58) Navigating Masculinity After Medical Procedure   (13:01) Understanding Testosterone Levels and Nuances   (25:06) Holistic Health Approach for Men   (33:06) Navigating Social Stigma and Training Intensity   (43:03) Optimizing Training and Sleep Quality   (54:46) Improving Sleep and Male Relationships   (59:53) Syncing Up for Health Benefits   Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

Ariana, Alex, and Trevor try to work out how they'd rate the relative importance of 20 training priorities, from 1-20 (1=most important, 20=least important). In this hour they manage to discuss roughly 10, so expect a second episode for sure. The theme of today is "It Depends." The 20 "Commonly Discussed Priorities" are as follows (and in no particular order, trust me): Individualised coaching, NEAT, Structured training, General nutrition, Intra workout nutrition, Sleep, Training periodization, Training volume, Training specificity, Extra recovery (cold plunges, saunas, thera guns, etc), Body work (self or massages), Stretching and mobility, Mental grit, Consistency, Training Intensity, Training environment, Equipment, Data acquisition tools (smart watches, power meters, etc), Basic supplements (creatine, stimulants, protein), Specific supplements (fat burners, beta alanine, testosterone boosters). Discussed at length were: Extra Recovery, Sleep, Intra Workout Nutrition, Mental Grit, Consistency, Training Environment, General Nutrition, and Training Specificity/Volume/Intensity as a "blob" rather than truly separate entities. I know. Thankfully for you, we all had very different opinions!  Keep your eyes open for episode 2.

In this episode, Ryan and Caileen are talking training intensity levels for beginners, intermediate, and advanced. They emphasize the importance of finding the right balance of intensity to maximize progress without overdoing it. For beginners, the focus is on creating a habit and starting with basic exercises, and building the habit of working out on a consistent basis.Intermediate and advanced individuals should gradually increase the intensity and challenge themselves with heavier weights and more complex exercises. The hosts also highlight the importance of adapting to the stimulus and avoiding excessive soreness that may discourage consistency. Key Points: For beginners, focus on creating a habit and start with basic exercises Gradually increase intensity and challenge yourself as you progress Adapt to the stimulus and avoid excessive soreness Consistency is key in achieving fitness goals Start with creating a habit and a basic routine in the beginning stages of fitness. In the intermediate level, set clear goals and focus on increasing intensity through progressive overload. At the advanced level, prioritize form checks, optimize other variables such as sleep and hydration, and be aware of potential risks. Listen to your body and adjust intensity based on individual goals and capabilities. Progress is the key indicator of success at any level of fitness.

In this episode, Stephen and Christina discuss different topics surrounding the intensity and focus of your training, and how to check in with yourself to see if you are doing enough, or perhaps too much, to get you to where you want to be.

Jeff Hoehn on RIR/TrainingJeff explained the concept of RIR (Reps in Reserve) as a way to gauge training intensity. RIR refers to the estimated number of additional reps you could perform before reaching muscular failure. The goal is to train with enough intensity to drive muscle growth, but not to the point of failure every set to allow for better recovery and injury prevention.Factors Affecting RIR Accuracy @ 3:45Jeff discussed factors that can impact the accuracy of RIR estimates, including:Participants tend to underestimate RIR by about 1 rep on averageRIR estimates are more accurate when closer to failure vs further awayRIR is more accurate for upper body vs lower body exercisesRIR is more accurate with higher rep sets vs lower rep setsProgressing Training Over Time @ 9:45Jeff explained that progressive overload can be achieved not just by increasing weight, but also by increasing reps within a given rep range. He recommended using rep ranges rather than fixed reps, and gradually increasing reps over time before adding weight. Proper form and technique are also important for continued progress.Follow Jeff on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jeffhoehn_/Join Jump Start for a smart 4 week training program paired with nutrition to get you toned, we begin 5/20/24 https://www.menopotmeltdown.com/jumpstartNow accepting clients, use the link to apply for 1:1 coaching:https://www.menopotmeltdown.com/mmmcoachingappFree No BS Menopause Secrets Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/kathykatalyst/?ref=shareFor all my social links: https://bit.ly/kathykatalystDo you have a question that you would like answered on the show?

Coaches Kelly and JK share their personal fitness journeys and emphasize the importance of the right workout intensity for gains in lifting and running. They offer practical tips on gauging effort levels, debunk myths about 'no-repeat' exercises, and discuss workout duration.  The conversation shifts to the influence of genetics on fitness outcomes and how coaches manage client expectations. It underlines the psychological impact of comparing oneself to others due to genetic differences, the effect of social media, and the necessity of realistic goal-setting. 00:00 Welcome to Episode 25 and Listener Reviews 01:36 Personal Updates and Balancing Fitness Goals 03:09 Training Frequency: Running, Climbing, and Lifting 04:23 The Challenge of Balancing Multiple Fitness Modalities 05:34 Understanding the Value of a Coach 09:50 Navigating Social Media and Business in Fitness 12:05 Trail Race Preparations and Baseball Updates 14:41 Reflecting on May Goals and Challenges 24:16 The Importance of Accountability in Fitness Groups 28:39 Simplicity Syndrome: Sharing Basic Knowledge 36:23 Training Intensity: Are You Pushing Hard Enough? 44:23 Navigating Fitness Tech: Charging Habits and Data Insights 45:09 Beyond Numbers: A Holistic Approach to Coaching 45:53 Muscle Maintenance vs. Growth: Training Intensity Explained 49:22 Mechanical Tension: The Key to Muscle Growth 50:33 Evaluating Workout Intensity: Rep Speed and Time Under Tension 58:46 Running Hard Enough: Understanding Workout Intensity 01:15:03 The Role of Genetics in Fitness Goals 01:23:42 Concluding Thoughts Follow the pod at ⁠⁠⁠@liftingrunninglivingpod⁠⁠⁠ Email us at ⁠⁠⁠liftingrunninglivingpod@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠ Follow JK at ⁠⁠@coachjkmcleod⁠⁠ Follow Kelly at ⁠⁠@coachingklutz⁠⁠

Like, he loves that distance, and he'll cruise for 60, 70 miles, and then at this kind of, like, final 30, which is mad to say out loud, isn't it? But this is a guy that can 6 minute mile comfortably for 70 miles, and then the race is on. And he has races, of course, where he feels shit, like, shitty at 30 and 40 and stuff, and it's just how it goes. But he is one of those guys that can kind of get into a pain cave and just he has such a positive attitude that he can kind of bring himself through it."Mastering Ultrarunning – Energy and Mindset: "ultrarunning essentially is an energy and is a balancing of energy in the mind."Athlete Training Philosophy: "You would just look at getting the basics right, getting the consistency in, getting all of the things that any athlete needs, good nutrition, good sleep, good support network."Ultrarunning Training Insights: "Even if it's just a one session a week or a quick session, couple of sprints, just to get kind of prep the body for that. You know, one thing that I think all ultrarunners should be is adaptable."Training Intensity for Athletes: "You're there to create an adaptation and and to go hard. So you know you know you've got it right when you turn up to the gym that day and you're kind of dreading it."The Importance of Consistency in Athletic Training: "I think if I'd been consistent through the years of my training, I'd not had this...

Rate of perceived exertion or ‘RPE' is an easy and effective way for you to measure intensity inside your training. Training until ‘failure' is very effective for muscle growth, but we shouldn't be doing this every week. In today's episode, we will teach you how to use an RPE scale in your own training so you can avoid debilitating soreness while getting the best results. Always remember that ‘what' we do in our training is not nearly as important as ‘how' we do it. Regardless of what is inside of your training program, your workouts are as hard as you decide to make them.  NASH BARS: https://nashnutrition.co EVERYDAY ATHLETE COACHING: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdlsozpojxDg964ah-rse5W7z51d4NTPkHva8RTw1ZX-purjQ/viewform BUILT AND BALANCED COACHING: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdKwK9YwMH3o95sPHybP2O51i9VRwsrdlNPya2RcEwsrB3Ozg/viewform LIFE REWIRED IG: https://www.instagram.com/LIFEREWIREDPODCAST/?utm_medium=copy_link ZACH IG: https://www.instagram.com/everydayathletetraining/ KRIS IG: https://instagram.com/kristinakovacs?utm_medium=copy_link

Can ice baths and massages boost your recovery? If you're not building muscle, do you need to change your routine or just work harder at your current program? Can lifting actually make you smarter? I'm discussing the latest scientific studies on these questions. Listen now to dive into the science! This podcast is another installment in my Research Review series of episodes, where I give you concise and practical takeaways from studies that I think are interesting and that can help us gain muscle and strength faster, lose fat faster, perform better athletically, feel better, live longer, or get and stay healthier.  There is a ton of scientific research that gets published every year, and even if you narrow your focus to fitness research, it would still take several lifetimes to unravel the hairball of studies on nutrition, training, supplementation, and related fields.  That's why my team and I put a lot of time into reviewing, dissecting, and describing scientific studies in articles, podcasts, and books.  Oh and if you like this type of episode, let me know.

But people don't talk about them as much anymore. Are there benefits to using them or not? Q2: I find I am always hungry, which leads to snacking between meals. Do you have any tips to help prevent me from feeling like I'm starving all the time lol? Q3: I have been in a training rut for a while and can't seem to progressive overload my training anymore. Should I increase volume or intensity? Q4: I'm a powerlifter but want to improve my chest size. What exercises, in addition to bench press, should I include in my program? Q5: When do you recommend doing cardio for fat loss?    Connect with Kyle:  http://www.kylehuntfitness.com/ Instagram: @huntfitness YouTube: @HuntFitnessTV   Connect with Derek: @DerekCharlebois     Absolute Progress 2.0   Absolute Muscle   The Hunt Fitness FREE Flexible Dieting Manual   Bodybuilding For Beginners on Amazon: https://amzn.to/3etmDbp   Get 10% OFF PR Breaker Supplements DISCOUNT CODE: “HUNT10” at https://www.prbreaker.com/
