    Episode 156 - Build Strength, Balance, and Flexibility with Man Flow Yoga’s Dean Pohlman

    Many men think yoga is primarily for women because most participants are female, and classes often cater to women's needs. My guest, Dean Pohlman, explains that men and women have different flexibility requirements, making traditional yoga more challenging for men. However, yoga has evolved to include elements like British gymnastics, making it more accessible for everyone. Dean, founder of Man Flow Yoga, shares his journey into men’s yoga and how it transformed his approach to fitness by improving his flexibility, core strength, and body awareness. He addresses other common misconceptions, such as yoga for men being too spiritual or not physically challenging enough.  Dean explains how men’s yoga workouts can be adapted to meet their specific physical needs, with a focus on balance, posture, and injury prevention yoga. He emphasizes the lifelong benefits of yoga, not only for increasing strength and flexibility but also for overall well-being, particularly for men over 40. You'll learn how morning yoga flow can relieve common issues like lower back pain, knee pain, and shoulder stiffness. Dean also highlights how strength-focused yoga helps build core and hip strength to reduce strain on overworked joints. If you're ready to build strength, balance, and overall fitness, tune in to this episode and discover how Man Flow Yoga can help men over 40 stay active, pain-free, and in peak physical condition.

    Episode 152 - Understanding Fat Burning vs. Fat Loss – The Real Path to Losing Belly Fat for Men Over 40

    Are you stuck in the fat-burning zone but still not seeing results? Many people think burning fat during exercise equals fat loss, but the truth is more complex.  In today’s episode, we’ll discuss the difference between fat burning and fat loss—and why understanding this can transform your fitness journey. We’ll debunk the common myth that staying in a low-intensity "fat-burning zone" is the best way to lose fat. You’ll understand why your body burning fat doesn’t necessarily translate into fat loss.  We’ll also discuss how your body uses calories for energy, how to track your caloric intake and burn, and the importance of quality nutrition in maintaining a calorie deficit. I also highlight the dangers of restrictive diets and share efficient ways to burn calories throughout the day.  I address the widespread myth of targeting belly fat and offer a comprehensive fat-loss approach, combined with regular monitoring of body composition and overall progress, which is far more effective than belly fat exercises.  So, whether you’re struggling with stubborn belly fat or looking to kickstart your fat-loss journey, this episode is packed with actionable insights that will help you create a sustainable daily routine for lasting fat loss. Tune in to learn how to optimize your workouts, nutrition, and lifestyle for better results.
