The Brad Jensen Show

I have been following Dr. Megan Rigby, aka Macro Mini for a long time now. So to get her on the show was not only exciting, but was an extreme honor. We covered her career in the medical field as a gastro, and how that helped her be able to provide maximum value to her clients. Her knowledge of gut healthy is at the top of the list in the space. Her now thriving coaching business was built off of passion and fulfillment, not money. Because of that, her genuine desire to help clients and listeners alike shines through. Megan is a terrific coach and an even better human being. So much respect and admiration for her. Enjoy the show!

Alycia is someone I have followed for a while now and felt not only excited, but honored to have her on the show. The thing I really love about Alycia is how raw and real she is. She doesn't sugar count anything, and with an industry that has a lot that, she is breath of fresh air. We dove into her story on growing up with a father who was committing white collar crimes. How it changed the trajectory of her life, and the wisdom she learned along the way. We also explored how she got into the industry by getting a degree from THE Ohio State University, to how she now runs her own coaching business! Alycia really knows how to help clients cut through their own BS by deploying the truth to them, yet delivers it with empathy and love. Both her story and her message are very inspiring, enjoy!

Today's episode was on another one of those "not sexy" subjects, yet so incredibly important to your long term success. NEAT expenditure, which stands for non-exercise activity thermogenesis. I went over a graph showing total daily energy expenditure (see below) and it shows just how important getting those steps in are! The message was simple... Want to amplify your results? Move MORE! Hope you get a lot out of the next 30 minutes! BMR Calculator TDEE Graph Connect with us on Instagram Host Brad Jensen – @thesoberbodybuilder Key Nutrition – @keynutrition

Today's podcast was on a subject I have gotten hundreds if not thousands of questions on over the years, MEAL PREP! Today was joined by my co-host and partner in crime, Michelle. Together, we tried to deliver some value around different hacks you can do to help simply your life. People often make meal prep way to big of deal in their head, and get what I like to call paralysis by analysis. It doesn't have to take hours upon hours, or consume your whole day. Going in prepared and with a few simple hacks will make your life much, much easier! Hope you Enjoy!

Today's episode was dual purpose in covering two different topics. First was a night routine and the importance of it. We have talked about how a morning routine changed my life, but I feel I didn't talk at all about how a night routine helps tie it all together. Second thing I covered was the 5 Rules for self respect. Full transparency it was a post by Tom Bilyeu I saw on Instagram. It was so impactful, I had to share it with you all! I digest each 5 things more in depth to try to bring you maximum value on it! These type of things often need to marinate for a bit to really create the impact it needs to. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I did recording it! swanwicksleep.com - Discount Code Key2017 keysupps.com - Discount Code KEY30 Connect with your Host on IG - @the_soberbody_builder Connect with the company - @keynutritionutah

Today was a special one for me. I had the chance to interview my long time friend and competitive bodybuilder, Mike Symkoviak. Mike was a guy who knew me in the depths of my addiction and still treated me with love and respect. He has competed over 17 times and has a passion like you wouldn't believe for the sport. With some of the negative light we have shed on competition, Mike's story reminds us that there are people out there who genuinely have a love for the whole process. We talk about his roots as a Mormon competitive bodybuilder. How he finds the daily determination to do what he does, and pick his brain about what holds clients back the most. Real, raw and inspiring, enjoy!

Carb cycling 101 - The how. the what, and the why. The term carb cycling is thrown around a lot and the funny thing is there is not one set way to carb cycle. With so much gray area around it I thought it was important to try and narrow this down for you all. This method has some merit, and if used correctly, can deliver great results. This isn't just for fitness competitors or athletes, carb cycling can be used for anyone trying to reach fitness goals. However, just like most things, people like to claim carb cycling is the end all be all for results. That just is not the truth. The goal of the this episode is to give some clarity behind the subject and help you identify if it's a possible strategy for you to try or not. Hope you enjoy!
