    Jason Colley Part II - The Mind and Muscle Behind Personal Trainer U

    Jason Colley Returns — And He's Our First Official Sponsor 🎙️ Round two with Jason Colley, and this one is a milestone for the show. We're proud to announce Jason is the first official sponsor of The Long & Thick Podcast, and in this episode we get into the heart and soul of PTU — the philosophy, the mission, and the why behind the program — alongside the story of how this partnership came together. This is a full sit-down interview about both: our new partnership AND the launch of PTU Biomechanics Course 1.0. Jason brings the same no-fluff energy as his first appearance — but this time we go deeper into assessment, programming, and the body as a connected system rather than a collection of parts. Here's the honest pitch: As trainers, we've all been there. Your client's knees cave on every squat. You cue it. You stretch the hip. You strengthen the glute. It keeps happening. Or a shoulder keeps flaring up no matter how you program around it. You're doing everything right — but something upstream is driving the pattern and you can't see it. That's exactly what PTU Biomechanics Course 1.0 is built to fix. Jason built this course around one central idea: your client's structure and breathing mechanics drive everything downstream. Hip loading. Foot mechanics. Compensation patterns under load. All of it. The system is built around 5 pillar principles — Structure, Relative Motion, Gait, Extracellular Matrix, and Assessment/Programming. Once you learn how they integrate as one, you stop guessing and start seeing. What's inside: Nine modules covering structure, breathing, gait, relative motion, ECM, foot mechanics, shoulder, assessment, and a full programming system you can apply the very next session. This is not a lecture course. Every concept connects directly to exercise selection, cueing, and loading decisions on the gym floor. What makes it different from every other biomechanics course out there is that it gives you one unified framework. Not a collection of isolated tools or strategies — a connected system that explains why your client moves the way they do and exactly what to do about it. Three ways to join: Self-paced study — $750 Live 9-week cohort with direct access to Jason — $1,250 Payment plan — 2 payments of $700 🎁 Long & Thick listeners get 15% off any option with code LONGTHICK15 at checkout. Note: PTU is working toward formal accreditation. This is your chance to get in on the ground floor of the framework before it becomes the standard. 🔗 Enroll & learn more: https://ptu-biomechanics.netlify.app Follow Jason: @jasoncolleyptu Follow the show: @longandthickpodcast on Instagram Listen everywhere: Apple Podcasts | iHeart | Amazon Music | Podbean

    Birthdays, Aging & The Adult Child Epidemic

    Daniel's birthday was the spark. The conversation went way deeper than that.   This week Ronnie and Daniel get into birthdays — the personal stories, the good ones and the rough ones — and then into the bigger picture: why do men and women age so differently in the eyes of culture? Why are women pressured by a biological clock while men just… get away with not growing up?   We talk emotional maturity, the manosphere, aging gracefully, and why the idea that your body falls apart at 30 deserves to be challenged.   Drop your birthday story in the comments. And if you're feeling the show — 5 stars and a review goes a long way. 🎂 The birthday episode is here. Happy belated, Daniel.

    Thin isn't Thriving, Big isn't Brave, Mirrors Make us Crazy

    Thin isn't Thriving, Big isn't Brave, Mirrors Make us Crazy   This is a heavy hitter of an episode. Buckle up friends!   On this weeks new episode, Daniel and Ronnie dive into some subjects that are almost always challenging to discuss. . Obsession with being thin . Scale fixation versus muscle & metabolic health . Body positivity as an unhealthy enabler . GLP-1's, performance enhancing drugs, and physique overload    In some way shape or form, everyone can relate to having a moment in time when they found an issue with their body size or image. We make some very important distinctions in this episode regarding disordered eating, self love, and how it's easy to enable behaviors that may not be serving us for the long haul.    Be sure to give us some feedback as we know these areas are highly sensitive and our main goal is to help better the community that has been listening along with us and those who may soon listen and join in the shared mission.    Love,    L&T

    Building The Bigger Picture - How to build what you want in life

    Building The Bigger Picture - How to build what you want in life   This week on The Long & Thick we round out the fourth and final day of our free workout program. As a reminder, listeners/viewers now have a fully fleshed out 4 day program they can start tracking and progressively overloading. Throughout the month we have shared one new day of the program and talked through the exercises and why we chose them. We can't wait for you to try it fully or even just add a handful of exercises you may not have otherwise done.    Zooming out - The Bigger Picture For the main segment of this episode Ronnie & Daniel ask each other what things they each want to be building towards in regards to: . Career . The Long & Thick Podcast . Personally    One major piece we ended up chatting about is the way humans need to continue creating. The push towards efficiency and AI have caused more and more people to do less and analyze more. Asking 10 thousand questions before starting an endeavor and staying stuck. We also dive into the importance of having things in our lives that we do that aren't for money, pushing back against the capitalist machine that can slowly drip all the juice out of your soul.    We hope you found value, challenge and laughter with this episode and we would love if you left us a review or shared the episode with someone you think would enjoy it. Tell us what we got right, what we got wrong, and some of the things you hope to build in your own lives!   Love,    L&T
