The B.rad Podcast Andre Obradovic: Losing Body Fat, Aerobic Training, And Nasal Breathing
What a pleasure it is to welcome health and endurance coach Andre Obradovic back to the podcast!
In this show, we will be taking you through a step-by-step process on how to become a healthy, fit endurance athlete, as well as how to become a healthier person just in general—if you want to feel better and also drop some excess body fat, then this is the episode for you! We’ll be touching on how to preserve your health as you pursue fitness goals, the best ways to emphasize aerobic development, and how to excel in endurance sports. We also spend a big chunk of this show focusing on the exciting and emerging topic of nasal breathing, from how this applies to workouts and improving peak performance, to how it can help manage stress and even improve all aspects of health in everyday life. Finally, click here to watch Andre conduct a BOLT test (click here to read my blog post, Breaking Down Breathing, if you don’t know what that is) and hit the exceptional 0:45 duration with ease!

The calmer we can be, the better we can burn fat. [17:48]
Andre encourages athletes to forget about how many kilometers and what pace they’ve run but rather focus more on how you feel after training. [20:33]

It is important for you to schedule and plan your training goals. There are areas of exercise that are important for you to do even though you might not like to do them. [01:03:05]
