    Ep. 173 - How I Feel 21 at 41 (No Biohacks, No BS)

    How I Feel 21 at 41... Most people think feeling young after 40 requires crazy biohacks, expensive supplements, or extreme diets. ---- If you want help dialing in your own nutrition targets, you can grab the starter nutrition kit I mentioned in the video here: 👉 https://www.mitchcalvert.com/calculator ---- It doesn’t. In this video I break down the exact habits I follow to feel 21 at 41 — the simple things that actually move the needle when it comes to energy, strength, and staying lean as you age. We cover: • The Big 5 habits that drive almost all results • Why muscle is the real anti-aging insurance policy • How I structure training, steps, and cardio • My sleep routine and why it matters more than people think • The supplements I actually take (and why most are unnecessary) • How I approach alcohol without wrecking progress None of this is complicated. But it does require focusing on the big rocks instead of the shiny objects the fitness industry loves to sell. If you want help dialing in your own nutrition targets, you can grab the starter nutrition kit I mentioned in the video here: 👉 https://www.mitchcalvert.com/calculator It’ll calculate your calories, protein targets, and give you a simple starting framework so you can start stacking wins right away.

    Ep. 172 - Retatrutide: All Reward With No Risk? 💉

    Retatrutide might be the most powerful fat loss drug we’ve ever seen. Up to 24% bodyweight loss in trials. But high dropout rates. Real side effects. And not necessarily a biological free lunch. In this episode, I break down the real reward… and the real risk.

    Ep. 171 - Consistent… But Stuck On The Scale? Here’s Why.

    You’ve been consistent. Tracking. Training. Showing up. But nothing’s changing?? In this training, I break down why consistency alone isn’t enough, and where most people leak progress even when effort is high. If you feel stuck, this is your calibration session. Most people don’t have an effort problem. They have a standards problem. Tighten execution. Plug the leaks. Let the data drive adjustments aftr. Apply the 14 day reset from the session and watch what happens. ⭐️ Get the FREE Metabolism Jumpstart Secrets Guide HERE: https://mitchcalvert.com/free-cheat-sheet Whenever you're ready, here's how I can help: ⭐️ Apply to work with Cal Fit Coaching: https://workwithmitch.ca Connect With Mitch on the interwebz: ⭐️ Instagram: https://instagram.com/mitchcalvertfitness ⭐️ LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/mitch-calvert-online-fat-loss-coach/

    Ep. 169 - How to Reset Your Fitness Goals After a Bad Month

    January didn't go as planned? Let's fix things in February. This wasn’t a motivation talk. It was a thinking session. Not in the “new month, new me” way. Instead, this call focused on: - Noticing what actually worked in January - Identifying where things quietly slipped - Choosing one realistic focus for the month ahead From there, we covered: - Why chasing motivation is unreliable - How raising one clear standard beats doing more - What most people do in week two that kills momentum - How to use the Big 5 as a weekly course-correction tool, not a checklist to be perfect We also worked through a one-page monthly worksheet (download an editable version here: https://mitchcalvert.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Cal_Fit_February_Kick_Off_ONE_PAGE_FILLABLE_SPACED-1.pdf) designed to - Clarify your outcome for the month - Anchor your habits to identity, not willpower - Keep you out of all-or-nothing thinking - Give you something simple to revisit every week This call is especially helpful if: ...January felt busy but unfocused ....You started strong and faded ....You’re tired of overhauling everything instead of tightening the basics This is meant to be used as a reference throughout the month so complete the worksheet. ⭐️ Get the FREE Metabolism Jumpstart Secrets Guide HERE: https://mitchcalvert.com/free-cheat-sheet Whenever you're ready, here's how I can help: ⭐️ Book a FREE Consultation Call with me: https://workwithmitch.ca ⭐️ Connect With Me on Social: Instagram: https://instagram.com/mitchcalvertfitness LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/mitch-calvert-online-fat-loss-coach/
