214: Brianne Tedisch - How to Get Super Fit as a Mom of 2

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.

213: 1 Million Workouts

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.

212: Gillian Bennett: The Real Reason European Food Culture is So Healthy

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.

211: Tim Walcott - A 6-Pack is A High Status Symbol

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.

210: Should You Care About Seed Oils & Microplastics?

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.

209: Michael Tzemis - Shredded Life, Simplified

Michael Tzemis (@michaeltzemis) turned his whole life around and getting shredded was a crucial part of that. Michael was a high level athlete growing up but life after sports, coupled with the pandemic led him away from his optimal health and fitness. He found his way back to leaner, stronger and healthier than ever before, and that’s what he’s here to share. Michael isn’t a fitness professional in that he isn’t a trainer, nor does he specifically work in the fitness industry. He’s got a “regular” job and isn’t on the gym floor for the whole day. And yet, he made the whole fitness thing work. I specifically wanted to have Michael on for this exact reason. Michael shares about how he got to his most out-of-shape point and then how he got himself out of that to where he is now. He shares the things that did and didn’t work for him in his situation. The most important part of this discussion though isn’t about getting shredded, it’s really about how Michael’s whole life improved as his health and fitness improved as well. That’s the message to take home. Take your health and fitness seriously, because it will make everything in your life better. Special thanks to Michael for agreeing to do this episode and being willing to share his story.

#208: Dan Frankel - Why Your Physio Exercises Didn’t Work (And What To Do Instead)

Dan Frankel (@dan.propelfitness) is a physiotherapist, strength coach and athlete. By combining his rehab and training education and experience, Dan is focused on helping injured lifters and gym goers recover effectively and get back to training at the highest level and beyond. Have you ever been injured, done all the stuff that the physiotherapist told you to, and it didn’t really get you back to 100%? This is common. Dan and I have both been through this exact scenario. We discussed why this happens, and how to tackle your rehab exercises so that they actually help you as much as possible. Rehab is tricky, and too often rehab is only focused on reducing pain. Which is great, obviously, but it should also focus on restoring and improving function. This is the gap that we are trying to fill with this podcast. Dan is very intelligent, has a ton of experience both with himself and clients, and breaks down this whole process very well so that it’s easy to understand and implement. To keep up with Dan, be sure to follow him on IG.The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

#207: A Rant on People Doing Anything Except Lifting Heavy Weights to Get In Shape

“Everybody wants to be a bodybuilder but don’t nobody wanna lift no heavy ass weights” - the great Ronnie Coleman. This basically sums up this episode perfectly. And even if you don’t want to be a professional bodybuilder, I can almost guarantee that you want to build your body in some way. So all the same principles apply. I’m genuinely sick and tired of people selling lies. All exercise is good, but that does not mean that all exercise produces the same results. Human beings are hardwired to avoid struggle and difficulty, and people in the fitness industry prey on this. “Do this thing that much easier than that other hard thing, I promise it works!”. Sure… if that were true, why wouldn’t everyone just do that then??? I go into more detail in this episode of course, but I hope you stay with me here. All I’m trying to do is deliver the truth. And I may not always be nice, but I will always be good.The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

But Adam discusses some things that worked for him and things that didn’t. He shares about how he got started slowly in training and how that picked up quickly to where he’s now training others. This story is one that everyone can learn from and take pieces away to apply to your own life. To keep up with everything Adam has going on, be sure to follow him on IG, check out his podcast, and check out his free weight loss course and community. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.
