    859: The Scary Truth About Your Health Nobody Talks About

    Apply for 1 on 1 coaching WWW.COLOSSUSFITNESS.COM 1- Normal is living with disease or obesity in 2026 72% of American adults are overweight or have obesity. 40% have obesity. 1 in 10 have severe obesity. 1 in 8 have diabetes, and 1 in 4 of those don’t know it. 2 in 5 have prediabetes, and 8 in 10 of those don’t know. -If you feel average, you are already in danger. -You need to be the exception. You can’t just be pushed around by life and expect to figure it out later. 2- Obesity doesn’t kill you next year. It bills you for decades and causes you a ton of necessary pain and discomfort. -Joke about if I die, I die -Not that, it’s living with pain and discomfort. Think of how horrible feeling sick is. -Versus normal weight, a first heart event is about two-thirds higher in men and almost double in women. -Death from any cause is only about 18% higher. That’s why people feel fine. The daily bill: high blood pressure, high blood sugar, fatty liver, sleep apnea, sore joints, heartburn, fatigue, and not being able to do the thing you like. The late bill: heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, some cancers, dementia, harder surgeries. Once again, “You don’t just die sooner. You spend more years sick.” 3- Waiting is the expensive mistake -Muscle fibers start leaving in your 30s -if you don’t lift. Lost fibers don’t grow back like they did at 25.

The least-fit group has about 4 times the death risk of the most fit. -Bone is a deposit account you fund young. (if you want strong bones you need to start right away) -Best time to better was yesterday, let this be your wake up call. The work you do today will equip you for a better tomorrow. 4- The minimum week that actually moves this At the very least -7-10k steps a day -Lift weights 3-5x week at approparite rir’s -Protein 1 gram per lean mass -80/20 rule -Take care of rest and recovery -Sleep 7-9 hours -This isn’t the ceiling, this should be your baseline. 5- What that floor is worth -By doing those things consistently You will have 50% less risk for diabetes -50% less chance of dying -Bulletproofing yourelf for longer longevity and ability (Investing in yourself is so key - website) Thanks for listening!

    853: Fitness Myths That Need to Die in 2026

    Apply for coaching www.colossusfitness.com This episode is specifically dedicated to myths I’ve heard in the last few weeks that are consistently going around, and people still believe. Majority of them actually came from the sauna where there are usually very interesting conversations taking place. 1- Metabolism crashes after 30 or 40 *At this age, everything goes downhillThe drop is slow and mostly driven by lost muscle and lower activity, not an automatic age switch. 2- Soreness means progressYou can make great gains with little to no soreness, progressive overload and consistency matter far more than how wrecked you feel. 3- BCAAs are essential for gainsMost people already get enough from regular protein sources, so extra BCAA powders rarely add meaningful benefit. -There is no drink that will truly help you, 99% of the time it’s a waste of money 4- You must get protein right away post-workoutThe anabolic window is wide; hitting your total daily protein target matters more than exact timing. 5- Fasted workouts are the bestThey don’t meaningfully boost fat loss beyond a calorie deficit and often hurt performance for strength or intense training. 6- Sweating more helps you burn more fat  Sweat is just your body dumping heat so you don’t cook yourself. Fat loss comes from a calorie deficit, not from how wet your shirt gets. 7- “That jacked trainer only eats 4 eggs for breakfast and a pound of lean ground beef for lunch and dinner.” Extra- Pickleball and classes have been helping me a ton Thanks for listening!
