The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast

On today’s show, Michelle and I help you learn to map out your nutrition plan for a whole year at a time. I do this every year and it helps immensely to have planned dieting phases, planned maintenance phases and incorporating your other goals in as well. We walk you through a real time example as I help Michelle map out her plan of attack.   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

On today’s show, I was joined by Eric Roberts. A great, very well-rounded conversation about back to basics with the fundamentals of fitness and nutrition. We hit on tips for calorie deficit and maybe some of the biggest tracking mistakes you might be making without even knowing it. We also hit on some tips to carry into the new year to help you hit those goals! But, again, just a great conversation grounded in the basics because they are what matter most at the end of the day.   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

Michelle and I discussed two subjects we felt could bring you all value on today's show. First, we discussed listening and honoring your body. Whether your body needs a nap or to take a day off from the gym or when you need to go push yourself! We discussed knowing if you are listening to your head or your body. The second thing we discussed was New Year resolutions and why I think they are a great tool to use. Michelle brought up some interesting points against resolutions, so you will definitely want to tune in to hear!   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

I was joined by Mike Matthews, the founder of Legion Supplements, on today's show. We discussed green athletic powders and fat burners, two very controversial subjects. Mike, as always, broke down both supplements and what makes Legion different from the typical ones you might see on the shelves. Also, very exciting news, Mike has a brand new book coming out called Muscle For Life. It drops in January, but he has a really cool drawing for any pre-sale books.

On today’s show, I was joined by Dr. Jeffery Nelson. We discussed all things hormones with a heavy emphasis on women’s health. We talked progesterone, estrogen, thyroid and the biggest difference between synthetic and bio-identical hormones. Jeffrey S. Nelson, D.O., graduated with a B.S. in human biology from Brigham Young University and then received his D.O. from Arizona College of Osteopathic Medicine. Dr. Nelson completed his residency in Family Medicine at St Louis University Hospital in St Louis, MO and Scott Air Force Base in Belleville, IL. He practiced family medicine and aerospace medicine in Germany from 2004 to 2010 for the United States Air Force and managed the NASA space shuttle emergency medical response team in Europe. Dr. Nelson is board certified in Family Medicine. He focuses on evidence-based, preventative, anti-aging medicine and bioidentical hormone replacement therapy. Dr. Nelson has five kids; four girls and one boy. His wife, Inga Nelson, is from Denmark and the family visits her home country every summer. In his spare time, Dr. Nelson enjoys skiing and hiking. FHC’s Story Freedom Healthcare (FHC) was started in 2010 by Dr. Jeffrey S. Nelson. The Clinic was founded with the objective to provide a preventative and personal healthcare approach. Dr. Nelson’s passion to provide evidence-based medicine brought Freedom Healthcare into fruition. Prior to the emergence of FHC, Dr. Nelson practiced family medicine in Germany. While he was in Germany, his mom told him about the innovative treatment of bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT). Dr. Nelson later attended his first evidence-based medical education series on bioidentical hormones in 2008 by Dr. Neal Rouzier. At the conference, Dr. Nelson was shocked at the sheer volume of scientific evidence there was for bioidentical hormones. This information was not taught in medical school or residency. After the education series with Dr. Rouzier, Dr. Nelson changed his patients' treatments from synthetics to bioidentical hormones and all of them felt better.  Dr. Nelson continued to study bioidentical hormones and became an expert in this area of medicine. Freedom Healthcare continued to grow as patients saw incredible results through functional medicine and bioidentical hormones. In addition, Dr. Nelson’s innovative approach to healthcare attracted other providers, who trained under him. Freedom Healthcare is now quickly expanding with locations in Layton, Ogden, and Sandy, Utah. However, FHC’s passion for evidence-based medicine remains the catalyst for the Clinics’ tenacity and success in the healthcare sphere.   Freedom Healthcare Website - https://fhcutah.com   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

On today’s show, I interview Michelle on the topic of breathwork. We have mentioned breathwork in the podcasts, so we wanted to give you an entire episode on the subject. We discussed what drew Michelle to breathwork, what you can get out of it, what it is for, and how to utilize it in your everyday life.    We Need a Little Breath-mas! - https://calendly.com/michelleraines/we-need-a-little-breath-mas   The Power of our Breath Podcast - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-power-of-our-breath/id1437983368?i=1000488751822   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

On today's show, Michelle and I discussed taking risks in your life to create more fulfillment, joy, success, and happiness. I recently got back from a men's coaching retreat weekend in which I took a jump off a 300+ foot cliff. The jump in this swing represented more than just doing something cool; it was a metaphor for life. This episode was special for me to record, so I really hope this finds you well and gets you motivated to take a leap and bet on yourself in 2022.   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

On today’s show, I was joined by my amazing assistant coach Caileen Thomas. Caileen has an amazing story on triumph from overcoming addiction. We also covered over-training and under-recovering from not eating enough food to fuel those workouts. We also touched on how much mindset plays into ones physical transformation. Here is a little more on Caileen. About Caileen Hey there! My name is Caileen, and I am so happy to see that you are here and ready to take the step into becoming the best version of yourself! I am a very proud Mom of two beautiful daughters, and it is my goal in life to show them that when you put your heart into what you love, you can make a huge difference in your life and the lives of others. Nutrition and Fitness was not always easy for me, in fact I struggled for many years with poor eating habits, and battled addiction for over a decade. So, I am here to tell you that change IS possible with dedication, and in having the right mindset you can achieve anything. When I finally made the decision to live life, rather than just survive it, everything drastically changed for me. I became a Certified Personal Trainer in November of 2019, lost 65 lbs, and absolutely fell in love with Fitness and Nutrition. My belief is that mindset will drive your success, and when working with me, we will implement habits, routines and an overall shift in your perception towards the process. Not only is your nutrition/fitness goals incredibly important to me, but it is also my passion, and I take your journey just as seriously as I take my own. I am beyond thrilled to have the opportunity to be a part of your success and grateful for the chance to work with you! https://keynutrition.com/coaches/caileen-thomas/work-with-me/   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.

On today’s show, I was joined by Felice Ramallo. She is a Rochester, NY based Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RD/RDN) and Lead Dietitian at Allara Health. She earned her BS in Nutrition at Syracuse University, and went on to the University at Buffalo for her MS in Clinical Nutrition and Dietetic Internship with a concentration in Culinary Medicine. She also completed her graduate thesis on nutrition for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). Felice appreciates the implications that PCOS has on one’s dietary patterns, sleep, exercise/movement, and the relationship with food and one’s body. She is committed to a holistic approach that considers all of these factors to produce targeted and personalized results. Her nutrition philosophy is grounded in mindful or Intuitive Eating, and reducing the burden of weight stigma through a pledge to Health at Every Size (HAES). In short, she aims to help patients eat what makes them happy with a goal of teaching not only what to eat, but how to eat in ways that promote health for a lifetime. Felice adores her family and friends, especially her Basset Hound, Estelle, who is learning to speak using buttons. In her free time, you can find her trying out new recipes, hiking around Upstate NY, enjoying Lake Ontario, or going to see live music.   Discount code: keynutrition for 20% off your first Legion order.
