    #101 - Advanced Training Techniques Athletes Need To Be Using - Don Moxley

    What makes a good strength and conditioning program? Is it just doing hard stuff in the gym so you’re more prepared for the sport? It’s actually quite far from that, and Don Moxley has a TON of data to prove it. Don Moxley is a sports scientist, who helped many athletes achieve incredible success in wrestling, including Olympic medals and many world championships. This is Don’s 2nd appearance on the show, as he was on from Episode 75, and we picked up right where we left off, talking about the details so many people miss when it comes to good strength and conditioning programs. This discussion was even more detailed in its discussion of how someone can appreciate using more data rather than guessing when improving their exercise performance. In this episode we discuss: What got him to be a strength coach How he realized doing LESS gave him more The effect that the speed of a movement has on power development How do athletes address their weaknesses? What do wearables do to help athletes? Why is Zone 4 cardio bad? How to pay attention to overtraining If you would like to nerd out about what’s going on in strength and conditioning for modern-day athletes, this is a great episode for you.

    E98 - Sugars that HELP the brain! - Dr. John Lewis

    You’re probably used to hearing “Sugar is toxic!” Does this mean all sugars? Did you know…there are many different types of sugars and some are really healthy? Dr. Lewis has done research to discover two types of saccharides (sugars) that can help treat metabolic disease and Alzheimer's. Dr. John Lewis was a researcher, with over 180 publications in the top scientific journals, and he came across some amazing plants. He discovered that rice bran and aloe vera have unique properties that can improve a person’s immune system function. They even saw cognitive improvement scores for individuals suffering from Alzheimer’s better than any other medication or product known to man! In this episode we discuss: How he started in bodybuilding but why he left How he got into research What is so beneficial about Rice Bran? What benefits were seen from Aloe vera? How his product tested on patients with Alzheimer’s Why did the NIH or Alzheimer’s Society not want to use this product? This episode is a really detailed scientific discussion, BUT it features some amazing discoveries. I think Dr. Lewis has discovered something incredible here and more people should know about this product.

    E97 - Sculpt Your Dad Bod - Dane Palarino

    Want to get rid of your Dad-bod? Can you sculpt your body when you’re over the age of 35? Dane’s 5 pillar system can help you do just that. Dane Palarino initially owned two 7-figure head hunting businesses, and despite having money, he didn’t have happiness. Despite doing 60 minutes of working out, and 16-hour fasts, he couldn’t believe how bad he felt about how he looked. So he picked up a pair of 25lbs dumbbells and started on his own fitness journey. He not only completely sculpted his body to be in amazing shape, but he’s now on a mission to help other dads do the same thing. In this episode, we talk about - How he changed his dad-bod - His 5 pillars of health - How he helps his clients improve their metabolism - How fasting can make your metabolism worse - Do you need to do fasted cardio? - What are dads missing in training and nutrition? This is an interesting episode as Dane does have some beliefs and systems that are different than mine. So you may notice minor debating on his tactics, and at the end of the episode I address how I feel differently and do not agree totally with all of his ideas. However, I feel he has a great system that can work awesome for many people, so I highly suggest listening in to hear all about it!
