Episode notes

After taking a summer hiatus, the Better Man Podcast returns—with a brand-new format.

This season looks at real-life examples from men of various ages. These conversations focus on understanding the fitness journeys of men of all ages as we age.

We’ll discuss their “Oh Shit” moment when they realized they needed to make a change, what helped them get started after their “Oh Shit” moment, and what keeps them going after the initial motivation “high” wears off.

In this first episode back, I reveal what you can expect from this season of the Better Man Podcast, why I decided to tweak the format, and how you can get the most benefit from the personal stories you hear.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

The 13 most important health and fitness lessons I’ve learned from Members (and how to apply these lessons to your journey)
The biggest “self-talk” change you must make as your fitness journey matures
How to start—and stay consistent with—your fitness journey
