Abel James Show

You know how a steak is marbled with fat—the fatter the animal, the more fat you see marbled through the muscle meat? Did you know the same thing can happen in your muscles? When you don't have your strength, when you're not training, when you're de-conditioned or sedentary, the muscles in the human body can actually become marbled with fat. I don't know about you, but that image alone is enough to keep me training. And we have the perfect guests here today. I'm happy to say that joining us is Dr. Gregory Kelly, a naturopathic physician, author of Shape Shift: The Shape Intelligence Solution, and the director of product development over at Neurohacker Collective.

Have you tried eating low carb yet? How did it go? How did you feel? Did it last? Be honest. Many people get incredible results by kicking out all the processed junk, sugar, and by dialing down the carbs, but I'm going to be honest with you, I love carbs. After my hard workouts, after my runs up the mountains, there's definitely a place for good carbs like wild rice, quinoa, sweet potato, old school sourdough, even some treats every once in a while. Carbs can be our friends too. So how do we scale our intake of fat, protein, and carbs, to achieve our ideal body composition? Today, we're here with a perfect person to talk about it, the wonderful and talented, Tara Garrison. Tara is a certified personal trainer, nutritionist, and mindset coach who helps high performers, including celebrities, professional athletes, and top executives optimize their health. In today’s episode, we're chatting about: How lifting weights makes everything easier Why you should do keto but not forever Intermittent fasting from a woman's perspective Changing your mindset from a restrictive mindset to an abundance mindset And tons more...

Ever since the world shut down, crippling small businesses, decimating communities and filling us all with fears of certain death, the response from politicians and world government has been disturbingly inadequate, to say the least. Instead of educating the public on how to strengthen our immune system, politicians have preyed on people's fears, divided us, locked us inside, forced us all to cover our faces with cloth, and socially distance all the while. But there's a big difference between socially distancing and physically distancing. I'm beginning to feel that this choice of words was not an accident. Also used as a form of torture, social distancing and isolation—especially combined with too much social media and screen time—destroys our relationships and damages our mental health. Living in a constant state of anxiety and fear is just about the worst possible thing for our health and well-being. When our mental health suffers our physical health falls apart. And at some point, we'll all have to acknowledge that mental health actually matters. So we'll talk in this show today about how to deal with all of these crazy feelings that we may or may not be experiencing right now. Today, we're here with Amy Morin, a psychotherapist, psychology lecturer, licensed clinical social worker, and author who’s now on her 4th book. Amy’s TEDx talk, The Secret of Becoming Mentally Strong, is one of the most popular talks of all time with more than 14 million views. And Amy’s new podcast “Mentally Strong People” will be coming to you live from her floating podcast studio in the Florida Keys, where she lives on a sailboat! If you're looking to build your mental strength and fortitude, this is the episode for you. On today’s show with Amy Morin we're discussing… Specific mental strength exercises to manage your emotions, regulate your thoughts and take more productive action How to train your brain for happiness and success Facing your fears and taking back your power How to raise self-assured children And tons more...

Did you ever dream of being a pro athlete? What happens when your goal becomes impossible? It seems like an uphill battle out there recently, and a new playing field, so to speak. You really need an ally. You need someone who's a comrade, someone who's there. And so often that’s just being there physically for them, but also just being that supportive force in the world of Doritos, Oreos, Facebook and all the rest of it. It's rough out there, so we need to prop each other up where we can. And to help us out, today we’re here with David Nurse, an NBA life optimization coach, podcast host, worldwide motivational speaker, and bestselling author of “Pivot & Go.” A former pro basketball player and coach for the Brooklyn Nets, David has helped more than 150 NBA players really succeed on and off the court. You’re going to like this one. On this show with David, we’re talking about: How to turn a strength into a superpower How to harness the power of visualization with your personal highlight reel Why it takes 10 years to become an overnight success How to get into flow through deep breathing And tons more… Read the show notes: https://fatburningman.com/david-nurse-coaching-in-the-nba-getting-into-flow-turning-a-strength-into-a-superpower Check out and support David Nurse at http://davidnurse.com/ Join The Wild Guild and get freebies on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/abeljames Like the show on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/fatburningman Follow me on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/fatburnman Let's be friends on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fatburningman/ And click here for your free Fat-Burning Kit: http://fatburningman.com/bonus  

So, you've heard some of these words that are bouncing all around the inter-webs recently: Carnivore, keto, plant-based, vegan. But do you know the nuances of what all these different words mean? What's the difference between keto and Atkins? What's the difference between clean keto and dirty keto? I mean, we can get really complicated with this. Whether it's plant-based, carnivore, detoxes, cleanses—words are very confusing, more than ever. And as it turns out, the meaning of words actually matters. So today, we're here to dial-in the meaning a little bit, so that you can actually figure out what to put on your plate. No matter what identity or word you're following, there are certain principles you can follow to take your health back into your own hands. So joining us on the show today is our friend, Ben Azadi, best-selling author of 3 books—The Perfect Health Booklet, The Intermittent Fasting Cheat Sheet, and The Power of Sleep—he’s also a health coach, public speaker and host of the Keto Kamp Podcast.

Who’s hijacking the internet? It started out, you'd pick up a phone and you'd call or text one other person. But now, we’re all in these separate little online groups. We're connected but it's also been co-opted. And it attacks us from so many different directions. And no matter how much they try to bury us, we can still find each other, we just might need to try a little bit harder. Well, I’m happy to say that returning to the show today is long-time friend, fellow podcaster, and multi-talented maniac Vinnie Tortorich. Vinnie is a Celebrity Fitness Trainer, speaker, cancer survivor, bestselling author, and creator of the hit documentary Fat: A Documentary. And as usual, he holds no punches in today's interview. Vinnie is a OG trainer and coach for 30+ years, training Hollywood comedians and celebrities like Howie Mandel, playmates, captains of industry, ultra-athletes, Ironman triathletes, and even pregnant moms.
