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.

Alexa Berg (@alexabergfit) is an IFBB Bikini Pro and a coach both online and in person in Las Vegas. After turning pro in just in 2nd show at 21 years old, Alexa continued to compete in bodybuilding until her declining health forced her to take a big step back. After years of trying to heal herself, she has found ways to continue to be elite and train hard, without sacrificing her health. Being elite in anything often comes with a cost. Bodybuilding is certainly included in that, and that even without the use of PEDs. Alexa is a perfect example of this. She tells her story of all the health complications she went through. It can be easy to ignore many of the early warning signs, and this is exactly what Alexa is aiming to make you aware of. If you pay attention, you can fix things before they become a problem. Training hard and wanting to be in amazing shape doesn’t have to come at the cost of your health. But it might if you’re not aware of it. To learn more and keep up with everything Alexa has going on, follow her on IG and check out her website. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Brianne Tedisch (@briannetedisch) is a mom of 2, works full time, and she’s in incredibly good shape. Like ridiculously good. But she wasn’t always, and she had her ups and downs with fitness and over time found what works for her… and ran with it. Brianne is not a “fitness professional” in that she does not work as a trainer or in a gym or anything like that. But fitness became a very important part of her life and she fully committed to it, and has the results to show for it. Brianne shares her journey from getting started in various group classes and then dabbling with lifting weights, and then really hitting her stride when she hired a coach, got serious (but realistic) about her nutrition, dialled in her training, and committed to the process. She shares some of her tips and tricks, both practical and mindset related as to how she does this while having a full time job and 2 young kids. It’s certainly not easy, but it is doable. Hopefully this conversation inspires you as much as it did me. Big thank you to Brianne for coming on the podcast and sharing - it’s not easy.

To secure your custom-tailored workout plan, tap here. Writing workout programs that actually work is quite difficult. There are so many things to consider, variables to account for and things to know that it can seem overwhelming. The result is typically three possibilities: You don’t make a workout plan, you just wing it, don’t get great results. You make a workout plan, but it’s not good, and you don’t get great results. You copy some random plan on online, or whatever your friend does, but because it’s not actually tailored to you, you don’t get great results. It’s a tale as old as time in the gym. This podcast episode is aiming to be the solution. I give the rundown of how to systematically go through and write a winning workout program. Once it’s broken down it becomes much simpler and there is actually a method to the madness. But it’s still a lot of work, and tough to do well. If you’d rather just have me do it for you, but without all the fluff of coaching, I got you. Tap here and I’ll get to writing your custom program right away. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Gillian Bennett (@bitesizenutri) is a nutrition coach and mentor, and host of the Bite Size Nutrition Podcast. Her mission is to help you live a full life without obsessing over food. Originally from the US but now living in Spain, coupled with her own experiences with fitness, health and weight loss she has a unique perspective that she brings to her coaching practice. “I went to Europe and ate everything I wanted and still somehow lost weight!”. Heard that before? Why does that happen? Is it the “food quality” or is there something more. Food is so much more than calories and micronutrients. And ALL of the stuff matters. We discuss this and how you can implement the practices proven to help you improve your diet. That being said, the calories and micronutrients and the “data” all still matters. Gillian and I discuss strategies and tools to implement these things in a smart way, and how to gradually move away from meticulous tracking, or how to implement it in the simplest way. This was a very enjoyable conversation about food culture and how to improve our diet based on lifestyle principles. To learn more from Gillian, be sure to follow her on IG and check out her podcast and website. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Tim Walcott (@iamtimwalcott) is an online transformation coach, and co-host of the Stay Peaked. podcast. He’s coached people in person and online for years to build a body that drips confidence. Tim is an amazing coach and a phenomenal guy and he also just recently finished up his own significant transformation process. He was in really good shape before, but there’s a lot that goes into going from good to great. That’s what we spoke about in this podcast episode. Tim shares the nutrition, training and lifestyle strategies that he used, as well as some of the unexpected or underestimated difficulties of getting in peak shape. We also spoke a lot about the mindset shifts that come from this level of commitment and transformation - both what’s required to make it happen, and what happens as a result of it. It’s becoming increasingly rare to be in amazing physical condition. Which means it’s becoming a greater and greater status symbol. Tim talks at length about how this all impacts every aspect of life in a positive way. To see more of what Tim shares, be sure to follow him on IG, and subscribe to the Stay Peaked. podcast. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Seed oils and microplastics seem to be a hot topic right now. It seems that, like many things, it’s always one or the other. It’s either the worst thing ever, or, that it’s a total non-issue. The truth, as usual, lies somewhere in the middle. Why are we like this, as humans? Why do we react so much to fear and extremism? Sigh… Anyways, I recorded this podcast to be a voice of reason and logic. The short answer is that you shouldn’t be overly concerned with these things, but you also shouldn’t completely ignore them either. Chances are you’ve got more important things to worry about related to your health. Things that will actually make a larger, more tangible difference in your life that you can address immediately. But once those are taken care of, it definitely doesn’t hurt to start focusing on things like seed oils and microplastics. I hope this helps steer you in the right direction. Logic and rational thinking always wins! The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.
