The Daniel Yores Podcast

Gary Chupik (@elitemindset) is a mental performance coach who works with athletes, leaders and high performers in sports and business to help them build an elite mindset to dominate in their field. Our mindset and mental performance is crucial to everything we do. This shouldn’t be news to you, but even though we know this, we don’t have many tools to actually improve it. Gary and I chat about some of the biggest lessons he’s learned from top performers in sport and in business, and how each of us can embody some of those traits. As well as tactical strategies to be able to build your mindset, cultivate your strengths and improve your weaknesses to help you improve in your fitness and other life endeavors. Mindset is a huge part of fitness. We all know what we should do, the hard part is actually doing the things. Pay attention to this one, there are tons of gems in here.

I went on vacation for a month and gained ~10lbs. While this is a bit extreme (also because I was away for a month, which is long) it’s not an uncommon experience to gain weight while on vacation, letting loose and being off routine. But it’s not a problem, because we’ve got a simple and reliable method to get back to baseline very quickly. In this episode, I discuss my own current situation - what happened, what I’m doing about it now, and how to handle vacations regarding weight gain in the future. Just as well being summer now, many people are off to Europe and claim that they “eat everything and lose weight”. I also discuss the truth behind this notion, and how you can also easily emulate this at home. Vacations are to be enjoyed! And part of this is having a good strategy to get back on track when the vacation is over. Save this one to re-listen before your next trip, and be sure to send it to your friends. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

DOWNLOAD THE FREE SUMMER SHRED CHEAT SHEET HEREThe plan is straight forward - but that doesn’t mean there won’t be bumps in the road. In the number of times I’ve done an aggressive fat loss phase with myself or my clients, the things covered in this episode are always the most common that come up. It’s always best to be prepared for these things in case they come up. You may never face them, and that’s great, but if you do, you’ll have tools to easily come out on top and not derail your progress. Things like: it’s simply “not working”, too hungry, lack of time, injuries, social and family life, and life stressors. These are the big ones. I give explanations and several potential solutions for each, so that you’re ready if/when they come. Next up in the series will be about how to make this stick for the long term. Enjoy! The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Dal Sekhon (@nutritioncoachingbydal) is a nutrition coach, mother, and someone who has been on an impressive journey with her own health and fitness. Dal is down over 120lbs after years of dieting and trying so many different approaches. Now, she’s pulling from her experience and education to help others do the same. The coolest part is that Dal didn’t give up all the cultural foods and things she loves in order to lose a ton of weight. Of course there are adjustments, but you don’t have to eat boring, plain food to make it happen. Dal talks about her story and the different phases she went through. Including the emotional and psychological aspects of changing your identity and losing a significant amount of weight. It’s a powerful conversation that is certainly applicable to anyone trying to change their life. I’m very happy and proud to call Dal a friend, and even more happy that she is coaching others on a similar journey. To get in touch with her, follow her on IG. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Tyson Robertson (@tyrextraining) is a personal trainer and anatomy instructor with Show Up Fitness. After going through his own struggles with injuries to eventually find proper solutions and develop a lifelong movement practice, Tyson decided to coach others who may be in a similar situation. Getting injured is no joke. But sometimes the pain of the injury is less than the seemingly endless rehab. Even worse when it feels like you’ll never be better, and start to lose hope. Tyson was there, and you might be as well. This podcast is discussing some ways that might help you finally get out of that pain. It’s not for a lack of trying, it’s mostly for a lack of poor information and guidance - which isn’t your fault. A twisted ankle doesn’t have to be a life sentence. Tyson and I discuss various ways to attack your rehab to get you out of pain for good. The next step is then developing a legitimate lifelong movement practice. The do’s and don’ts, and how to set yourself up to be successful in fitness forever. To learn more about Tyson’s coaching follow him on IG, and if you’re a trainer check out Show Up Fitness for more education. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.
