Training - Simple but Hard
I really want you to make the change, if you want to make the change. Constructing a training plan is not easy. The waterfall of misleading info that splashes across your eyes and ears is endless. I try my best to give you the tools to put together your training plan to make a real change, and get the results you've been searching for.

Nutrition Myths and Realities
All the so called "experts" have sold you marketable fitness propaganda for far too long. "If I blame carbs, insulin, sugar, gluten... people will buy my books." You end up paying the price financially and emotionally. All these myths have become true through repetition, and you end up confused. I break down reality and myth when it comes to eating for fat loss. I won't make any claim that I can't back up, and I am more then willing to eat crow if someone can refute these claims. Be warned, "I did this and lost weight," is not a viable appeal to the veracity of my claims.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Embarrassing Episode - Motivation
I didn't intend on this being an embarrassing episode. It just ended up that way. A lot of folks have asked about motivation. So I intended to discuss motivation on this episode. As I got into it, I started to get emotional, while recognizing my limiting beliefs and my shameful past. So...Good timesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I Did It My Way
A few Patreon members made it clear, they wanted more insight into my actual routine. I was reluctant, because I don't want to give anybody the idea of copying my workouts or eating. Unless you're ready to do so, in which case, you probably wouldn't need my advice anyway. I detail my current eating and training, and my goals for my birthday this March.

Candid Cardio
I am not anti- cardio. I believe it is tremendously misunderstood. If you want to compete in most sports, then you should be doing lots of it. If you want to look good naked then you probably shouldn't. When you do decide to do it, you should do it right. I get right down to the nitty gritty about aerobic vs anaerobic, heart rate zones, high intensity training and much more on this new episode.

Steve Zim - Hollywood Trainer and a Hell of a Guy
I met Steve Zim about a decade ago, when he began training my wife at his Culver City Gym, A Tighter U. I quickly learned why movie studios and professional athletes trust him to create the bodies worthy of big paychecks. Steve is unbelievable smart and practical with his methods, and he is one of the kindest people in the fitness industry. He now has a online portal to train you from home with any equipment, including zero equipment. www.atumobile.com See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

I Have Made My Wife a Muscle Booty Machine
I have been training my wife for five weeks. I don't want to brag, but the results have been stellar. I have zero problems promoting my skills, but my wife, Bianca Kajlich, does. She has been very resistant to allowing me to be her trainer. She finally relented, and she has been startled at how effective three short workouts a week with some practical nutrition can be. Bianca and I discuss our journey along with other physical, emotional, and spiritual trials.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Don't Do That!
I have often promoted ideas that I think are useful. Now it is time for me to say, "Hey, don't do that." Here I breakdown some things that people like to do, that I feel are useless or harmful.
