This interview I talk to Karon Hawkins, who is a fitness and nutrition expert, and also Flobility coach. We dig into where Karon started, how he got to where he is, and also an intro to the importance of Flobility.
This episode was recorded in 2020, and since then I have actually began to be coached by Karon, who has been training me in Flobility since the start of 2021. Flobiltiy has literally changed my life, and I have become enamored by the system. I highly HIGHLY recommend it for each and every person, no matter what your fitness goals. It truly is a game changer.

31) Sunk Costs, Opportunity Costs, and What Economics Can Teach About Life
I am not economist, not a statistician, and I suck at math in general. In business school, the only class I ever failed was Statistics 1.
In life however, we often come to learn things later, that we wish we understood earlier.
I wish I understood costs, beyond the economic value and how to use them to make better decisions in life.
My loss however, is your gain, and in this episode I explain how to make better decisions, and how to understand two topics that can't be overlooked if you want to be health, happy, and successful: sunk costs, and opportunity costs

30) "Embracing Opportunity" w Adam Hameed
Having spent nearly a decade in the health and fitness space as a professional, I feel that I have a pretty good radar when it comes to detecting BS. That's why when I meet someone who shoots it straight, and comes correct with facts, and real actionable advice, I always take note. Adam Hameed is one of those people, and over the last few months I have really enjoyed connecting with him and speaking with him on the Clubhouse app, so I knew this would be a good talk.
Get ready to get motivated, and hear some no BS advice on how to live a healthy, happy life.
Some key points:
3:05- Calling out BS in the fitness industry

"Dieting," for better or worse, is here to stay. People, maybe even you, want to lose fat, maintain a healthy weight, fell and look good. This all has to do with the things we eat.

24) "An Unobstructed & Full Expression Of Life" w Dr Ryan DeBell (@movementfix)
Dr Ryan runs themovementfix.com , and is one of the smartest guys in the fitness space. I have learned so much from him over the years, I've taken his courses, so it was a pleasure and an honor for me to have him on this episode.
In true HHH fashion, we spoke almost nothing about fitness or corrective exercise (a topic both of us are experts in) and instead dove deep into mindset, life, existentialism, and all of the stuff I really like to talk about. So this was a pleasure for me, and I really suggest you get your note-pads out as the last 20 min or so especially is stuffed full of good takeaways.
Here are some time stamps for the impatient:
1:40: Simple does not mean easy
3:40: How Dr Ryan defines "health"
8:40: Are you trying to be better, or just not be worse?
11:45: Fitness & aging
18:10: How can we use the internet for good
25:40: Dealing w growing pains
31:40: Life as a tree
36:30: The delayed feedback loop
39:30: Self esteem and what it means
42:10: Being reactive vs being proactive
44:45: Are you trying to win, or are you trying not to lose?
45:35: Ryan's action step
