Dr. Mani Kukreja (@dr_mani.kukreja) is an MD and MPH focused on integrative wellness and lifestyle medicine. She is passionate about educating people on anti-aging and is the author of the upcoming book “Live More, Age Less”. Father Time is, and will always be, undefeated. But how can we maximize the time that we have? This is the concept of “healthspan”, and this is the main topic of this discussion. What’s the point of living longer if you’re not living well? Anti-Aging and longevity are sort of buzzwords that are loosely thrown around these days and are often used to market nonsense products. Some of these things have value - and we discussed them - but none of them have any value if you’re not implementing certain daily exercises to form the foundation. Dr. Kukreja is a wealth of knowledge and really breaks things down in a way that is easy to understand and simple to implement… but it only works if you implement it! To keep up to date with Dr. Kukreja, follow her on IG and visit her website. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

Dr. Carri Dominick (@rechargetherapy) is a pelvic floor PT based out of Long Beach, California. Carri works to help people with any pelvic floor dysfunction live their best life. This is brand new territory on the podcast. A huge and important topic nonetheless and I’m glad Carri was willing to come on and share with us. Unfortunately, for many topics surrounding pelvic floor health and anything related to pregnancy, there is a TON of misinformation out there. Carri broke down a lot of the common myths out there and explained how things actually work. We spoke about the function of the pelvic floor, kegels and their place in therapy, exercise considerations before, during and after pregnancy, and many signs and symptoms to look out for in your own body. Most importantly, Carri gives an amazing framework of how to think about these things for yourself. So that if you are in this situation, you are equipped to ask the right questions to the right people to best help yourself. To learn more from Dr. Carri Dominick, follow her on IG for a ton more in depth resources. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

In this episode I’m once again joined by my friend John Martirosyan aka JMart (@jmartfit) for a chat to recap our 2023 fitness pursuits, and look ahead to our 2024 goals. At the beginning of last year we did a similar episode, and you can find that here. This year, John is planning to run a full marathon after successfully completed a half marathon last year without any injury. I’ll be looking to re-up my goals from my last year now that I’m injury free. Staying injury free will be key, but the main goal is to get down to 9% body fat and be as strong as I can be for my wedding in a year’s time. We went over what went well and what didn’t from last year, what we’ll change this year, and generally how to set and approach fitness goals going forward. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

In this solo episode I discuss the hot (but not new) topic of intermittent fasting. Nutrition trends come and go, and none of them are the be all end all answer. If they were, everyone would do it! However, they all have some value and good things to them, along with the downsides. Mostly, they have a ton of overblown claims. I went through the reality of the purported benefits, some of the pros and cons to using fasting as a nutrition protocol, and my recommendations on how you might implement it in your own life. The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.

We’ve done a few episodes in the past, and it’s become a yearly thing to do an end of year recap. In this episode, we talk about a wide range of topics covering fitness and business and all the overlap between the two. Most notably, we spoke a lot about one thing Peter has implemented this year that’s given him the absolute greatest return: thinking time. Like anything, easier said than done. However, massively powerful when it’s done. 3 things from Peter to look out for in 2024: PupLabs: the highest quality dog treatsHot Guys Do Therapy: men’s mental health Kama Euphorics: tantric chocolate The best way to support the podcast is to share the episode with a friend.
