    #137 - HOW TO LOSE 30LBS IN 90 DAYS AS A BUSINESS OWNER WITH TWO KIDS

    The Exact 90-Day Blueprint to Lose 30lbs as a Busy Business Owner and Dad You run a successful business. You've got kids. You're smashing it professionally, but your body tells a different story. Sound familiar? In this episode, I'm laying out the complete blueprint I'd follow if I had 90 days to lose 30 pounds as a stressed business owner with two kids. No extreme diets, no two-hour cardio sessions, no miserable crash plans that leave you right back where you started. I'm breaking down the hidden leaks in your system that are quietly sabotaging your progress, the late-night scoffing, the weekend blowouts, the kids' leftovers you pretend don't count and giving you the exact playbook to plug them for good. I also get into the three non-negotiables every busy man needs each week, how to structure your day so fitness fits around your life instead of competing with it, why your evening routine is making or breaking your results, and how tracking your stress through breathwork and HRV could be the thing that changes everything. If you've been telling yourself you're too busy, you're too busy not to sort this out. 📋 Download the FREE 90-Day Blueprint PDF: https://jayalderton.myflodesk.com/blueprint 💪 Apply for the Renaissance Man Programme: https://jayalderton.typeform.com/to/SZswaJP4 🍽️ The Good Prep (meal prep, UK): https://thegoodprep.com/

Tune in for unfiltered advice, plenty of laughs, and practical takeaways you can apply straight away.
