    Training Hard Still Look Average, Weekday Discipline Weekend Chaos, Peptides Worth It, Losing Weight Gaining It Back, All In Burnout, GLP1 Tool Or Crutch, Q&A

    In this Q&A episode, Craig and I dive into some of the most common struggles we're seeing right now around nutrition, training, and knowing what actually matters. We start with the all or nothing cycle. Being dialed in during the week, then losing it on the weekends and feeling like you're starting over every Monday. We break down what's really driving that pattern and how to get out of it. We talk about the frustration of putting in years of work in the gym but still feeling like you look average, and how to actually audit your approach instead of just doing more. We get into peptides and the current hype around them. Where they can actually be useful, and where people are jumping in way too early chasing an edge they haven't earned. We also hit on the cycle of losing weight and gaining it back, and why the issue usually isn't the diet itself, but something deeper that keeps repeating. There's a big conversation around the all in personality. Why going 100 percent eventually backfires, and how to find something sustainable without losing your edge. And we finish with GLP-1s. How to know if you're using them as a tool versus a crutch, and what should actually be dialed in before going that route.   Next Level Experience - Schedule a Discovery Call   Next Level Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

    Stop Playing Small: Lessons from Mike Mills' Transformation

    In this episode, I sit down with Mike Mills. Mike is a past participant of Next Level Experience and someone I have a ton of respect for as a man. We get into his journey over the last couple of years, including completing 75 Hard not once, but twice. But what stood out most in this conversation is that it wasn't about the physical transformation. It was about what it did for him mentally, emotionally, and the level of ownership he's now operating from. Mike shares how going through NLE helped shift his perspective and pushed him to step into a bigger version of himself. Not just for his own life, but now in the work he's doing helping other men level up across mind, body, and spirit. We also touched on something deeper. The passing of his father from ALS and how that experience forced him to take a hard look at his life. It lit a fire under him to stop waiting, stop playing small, and really take control of the direction he's heading. This is a powerful conversation about growth, responsibility, and what it actually looks like to become the man you know you're capable of being. If you're someone who knows you've got more in the tank, this one will hit.   Next Level Experience - Schedule a Discovery Call   Next Level Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Guest Mike Mills - @mmills310 Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

    Where Mind Body and Spirit Finally Click - NLE Bootcamp Pt 3

    On this episode of the Brad Jensen Show, I wrap up the final part of our 3-part NLE Boot Camp series. This one is solo. Just me tying everything together. We've already covered the emotional and mental levels in parts one and two. In this episode, I bring it all home and introduce you to the spiritual level. This is the piece most people either ignore or completely misunderstand. And it's also the piece that changes everything when you actually get it. I break down some of the core principles we teach inside Next Level Experience when it comes to spiritual alignment. Not in a fluffy, surface-level way. In a real, practical, apply-this-to-your-life kind of way. We talk about: What it actually means to be spiritually aligned Why so many high performers still feel off even when they are "winning" How your mental and emotional patterns are directly tied into your spiritual state Why chasing more without alignment will always leave you empty How to start operating with more purpose, clarity, and intention I also touch briefly on the physical level and how it all connects, because the truth is none of these operate in isolation. When one area is off, it bleeds into everything else. This episode is really about bringing full alignment into your life. Mind, body, and spirit. Not just dominating one area while the rest fall apart. And if you've been listening to this series and thinking "this is exactly what I need," then this is your sign. We are heading into what is shaping up to be the final round of Next Level Experience in 2026. If you're ready to stop half-assing certain areas of your life and actually put everything together, book a discovery call. But only do it if you're serious about doing the work. All of it. Not just the physical.

    Why Your Relationships Keep Breaking Down - NLE Bootcamp Pt 2

    In part two of our three-part series, I sat down with Frank Young to dive into something that impacts every single area of your life… your relationships. Frank has been married for 35 years and brings a level of wisdom and real-world experience that you just can't fake. Not only that, but he coaches relationships in his own business and inside of the Next Level Experience, so this isn't theory… this is what actually works. We break down some of the exact principles we teach inside NLE when it comes to building stronger, more connected, and more intentional relationships. We also zoom out and connect the dots between your mental patterns, your emotional responses, and how those show up in your relationship… whether you realize it or not. If you've ever felt disconnected, misunderstood, or like you keep running into the same patterns in your relationships… this one will hit. This is one you're going to want to take notes on.   Next Level Experience - Schedule a Discovery Call   Next Level Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Guest Frank Young - @frankthetankyoung Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

    Master Your Emotions or Stay Stuck in the Same Cycle - NLE Bootcamp Pt 1

    In this episode, I'm joined by Cass Zimmerman, one of the absolute rockstar coaches inside the Next Level Experience. If you've listened before, you already know… she brings the heat every single time. This is part one of a three-part Boot Camp series where we're pulling back the curtain and giving you a real look at what we actually teach inside NLE. Not surface-level stuff. The real work. We kick things off with one of the most overlooked areas of growth… Emotional regulation and energy. We break down how your emotional state is directly tied to your results in every area of life. Your health. Your relationships. Your business. Everything. We also get into how this shows up differently for men and women, and why most people are completely unaware of what's actually driving their behaviors day to day. And we didn't just talk about it… We gave you real tools. The exact frameworks and practices we use inside Next Level Experience to help people build awareness, regulate emotions, and take back control instead of constantly reacting to life. This is the work most people avoid. But it's also the work that changes everything. Toward the end, we start bridging into relationships… which sets the tone perfectly for part two of this series. If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but still not getting where you want to go… This episode will show you why. And more importantly, what to do about it.   Next Level Experience - Schedule a Discovery Call   Next Level Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Guest Cass Zimmerman - @casofras Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

    Stop Saying This If You Actually Want to Change Your Life

    On today's episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig Smith and I dive into the sayings we cannot stand in the health, fitness, and personal development space. You know the ones. The phrases that sound harmless on the surface but actually keep people stuck, playing small, and buying into their own excuses. We break down the victim mindsets, the self-sabotaging statements, and the subtle language patterns that quietly wreck progress without people even realizing it. Between my 15 years in the health and fitness space and Craig's 20 years of clinical experience, we've heard it all and today we call it out. This one is equal parts informative and funny, but also direct as hell. If you've ever caught yourself saying things like "I just can't," "this is just how I am," or "I'll start when life slows down"… this episode might hit a little close to home. And that's the point. Because once you become aware of the language that's holding you back, you can finally start changing it and changing your life along with it.   Next Level Links: Work With a Nutrition Coach - Schedule A Consultation Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition

    Our Best and Worst Habits… And What You Can Learn From Them

    On this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig and I pulled back the curtain a bit. Instead of just telling you what to do, we talked about where we still struggle. We each broke down three areas in our own fields where we don't always have it dialed in… the habits that trip us up, the patterns we catch ourselves falling back into, and the stuff we're actively working on. Because the truth is… you don't need perfect coaches. You need real ones. We also flipped it and shared our best habits. The ones that have made the biggest impact on our lives, our health, our relationships, and our businesses. This episode is a mix of honesty, self-awareness, and practical takeaways you can actually apply. If you've ever felt like you "know what to do" but still struggle to do it… this one will hit. What we cover: The worst habits we still battle in health, mindset, and life The patterns that keep high performers stuck (even when they know better) How self-awareness is the first step to real change The best habits that have created the most growth for us How to take what we've learned and apply it to your own life   Register for our Masterclass on March 23, 2026 - Register Here   Next Level Links: Nutrition Coaching Free Consultations - Schedule Here Nutrition Coaching - www.becomenextlevel.com   Partner Links: Try Thrive Lab Free For One Month - Start Here Order Supplements From Transform - Shop Here Order Supplements From Cured Nutrition - Shop Here Order Supplements From Legion (use code keynutrition for 20% off first order) - Shop Here   Be Featured on the Show: Apply to be a live calller guest on the show - Submit Application Here Submit Q&A Questions to be read live on the show - Submit Here   Free Guides: Eating Out Guide - Get The Guide High-Protein Fast Food Orders - Get the Guide Macro Food Options Guide - Get The Guide Join Us On Patreon - Join Here   Connect with us on Instagram: Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Co-Host Craig Smith - @greatestdaymindset Next Level Nutrition – @mynextlevelnutrition
