Breather: Scientific Research Validating The Benefits Of Micro-Workouts

You have heard me talk about micro workouts frequently—I have called them the greatest breakthrough in the fitness industry in decades—so I am very excited about the acceptance of demystifying and decomplexifying the act of performing a workout and making it accessible and convenient for anyone, at any time, to engage in brief bouts of physical effort that have so many wonderful health and fitness attributes.  In this episode, I talk about the research that is now backing up my excitement about micro-workouts, confirming it is indeed a highly effective strategy for health, fitness, and disease prevention, as well as a wonderfully refreshing evolution in the fitness industry, which is by and large, fraught with programming that is too complex, overly stressful, and exhausting to many participants—I’m referring to the offerings at fitness facilities, the protocol delivered by most personal trainers, and the group exercise programs where people train for extremely grueling endurance events and push themselves too hard. While this is certainly better than sitting at home and not moving, there does seem to be a pretty pervasive all-or-nothing approach to fitness, and this is where micro-workouts come in. As you will learn in this episode, there are many reasons why micro-workouts (or exercise snacks as one study calls them) have been scientifically validated to have such incredible benefits, and even sprints as short as four seconds long have been proven to have a surprisingly potent effect on the body.    LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad’s Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel (Now Available in Cocoa Bean)   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

Q&A: Optimizing Protein On TMAD, Eating 10 Eggs A Day!; Ideal Sprinting Work:Rest Ratio; Best Time Of Day To Train; Cold Plunge - How Often?

Welcome to another Q&A show! In today’s episode, we hear from a listener who wants to know if they can get enough protein to build muscle when eating only two meals a day, talk about fiber and constipation, healing plantar fasciitis, and the ideal effort to rest ratio when sprinting. I also answer questions about my morning exercise routine, timing workouts with your circadian rhythm and what the best time to train is, and what I’m eating these days. Finally, I answer a few questions about cold plunges and advise a high school track and cross-country coach on how to integrate ancestral principles into his coaching method. Thanks for listening and please do continue to send in your thoughtful questions and comments—they are always so insightful and helpful to hear.   TIMESTAMPS: Jenny asks: Can you get enough protein when following the Two Meals a Day pattern? [04:00] Recommended Daily Allowance or RDA is recommended for survival, NOT peak performance.  A good way of figuring out is to consume a gram of protein per pound of your ideal body weight. [09:08] John asks: How do you minimize fiber and not get constipated? [14:07] Ellen writes how she helped her plantar fasciitis by using Brad’s YouTube about stretching. [18:55] Limiting your high intensity sprint efforts to a maximum of 20 seconds, and then taking an extensive recovery is recommended. [20:59] How does one’s circadian rhythm affect exercise? The best time to exercise is when you prefer to exercise. [24:47] Mike is asking five questions regarding Brad’s morning exercise routine. How does Brad recover after his morning routine and what does Brad eat? [27:25] Brendan is a high school track and cross-country coach. He wants to know how he can integrate the ancestral health principles into his coaching method. [43:25] Douglas wants to know how often and when does Brad do his cold plunge and for how long? Another question is about comparing the diet his doctor recommends and the science behind what Brad talks about. Nutrient deficient, toxic processed foods are the drivers of heart disease,  not red meat, dairy and saturated fats. [48:38] Find a health care provider who is well-versed in nutritional science.  Some medical schools fall short in offering current information.

Breather: Social Fitness Is The Key To Human Happiness (Harvard Study)

I want to talk about an 85 year long study about what makes for a long, happy, and successful life. Researchers at Harvard University began this study in 1938 and focused on 724 participants around the world, who they checked in with every two years to ask detailed questions about their lives. What they discovered was that the key to human happiness had nothing to do with career, achievements, money, exercise, fitness, or a healthy diet, but something else—something that has been proven to keep us happier, healthier, and help us live longer. If you want to learn about the key to human happiness, this is the episode for you—you will learn all about social fitness, why it is so important, the role positive relationships play in our lives, why some relationships do have expiration dates, and more!   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad’s Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel (Now Available in Cocoa Bean)   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

Dr. Judd Brandeis: Seeing Men's Health Through The Lens Of The P*nis

Get ready for a fantastically entertaining and informative show with Dr. Judd Brandeis of the Brandeis MD Male Rejuvenation Center in San Ramon, California. One very important point you will hear Dr. Judd make is how easy it is for us to go to the doctor when we have an issue with any other body part and identify exactly what’s going on, but when it comes to male performance, there can be a lot of anxiety, shame, humiliation, and attachment to ego involved. It’s time to talk about it though, especially in a way that feels comfortable to address, and in this episode, you will learn about men’s health and performance from a true expert. You will hear Dr. Judd’s opinion on using pills to enhance performance, learn why your erectile health is a strong red flag for your overall physical health, hear about my experience at Dr. Judd’s clinic, and so much more!   TIMESTAMPS: Dr. Brandeis’s specialty is a holistic approach to men’s sexual health. [01:33] Cialis and Viagra are very good drugs doing more than you think. [04:38] Chronic inflammation is bad, Acute inflammation is what our bodies use to heal and rebuild tissue. [07:53. The GAINSWave procedure breaks up plaque formation in blood vessels and stimulates the growth of new blood vessels in the penis. [09:11] Every time you are in REM sleep, and you start to dream, you should be getting an erection. [12:23] The reason you don’t get an erection could be that your blood vessels are getting clogged. [14:07] If there is trouble in the bedroom, ten years down the road you might have heart problems.  [17:05] This is a very sensitive topic for men to talk about.  It is kind of a sense of self, sense of manliness. [20:36] If you don't take good care of yourself in your twenties and thirties and forties, in the fifties and sixties and seventies, you're gonna pay the price. [25:05] The Emnsculpt is a machine that uses high-intensity focused electromagnetic waves to sculpt the body. [30:38] The Vo2 max test is the most sensitive indicator of someone’s cardiovascular health. [39:15] There can be some men who come for help whose vascular health and ultra sound look good but who have unsatisfying sexual function. [46:51] It's literally a function of blood flow whether we get an erection. [50:59] One important chapter in the book is what men need to know about menopause. [53:32] There are some things one can do to help with premature ejaculation. {56:21]   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad’s Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel (Now Available in Cocoa Bean) Brandeis MD Clinic GAINSWave 21stCenturyMan.com   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

Breather: Brad's Insights From Nutrisense CGM Journey

I share my observations from my experience using the Nutrisense Continuous Glucose Monitor in this breather show, as well as the important attributes to look for when you’re doing continuous glucose monitoring. I have been working with these guys for several years now (since their initial launch) and it has been so cool to watch this technology rise in popularity over the years. In my opinion, a CGM journey is a bucket list item for virtually anybody—and while you don’t need to be extreme, doing even just a single course of putting the CGM for two weeks can give you enough important information that will tee you up for good behavior habits for the rest of your life. This episode will get you better acquainted with the process of using a CGM as I talk about everything I have learned from my experience using one (such as what I noticed on days I stayed up past my usual bedtime)—if you have been wanting to start using a continuous glucose monitor but haven’t known how to start or what to expect or look for, this is the episode for you.   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com Brad’s Shopping page B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel (Now Available in Cocoa Bean)   Join Brad for more fun on: Instagram: @bradkearns1 Facebook: @bradkearnsjumphigh Twitter: @bradleykearns YouTube: @brad.kearns TikTok: @bradkearns   We appreciate all feedback, and questions for Q&A shows, emailed to podcast@bradventures.com.

Maria Emmerich: Using Keto And Fasting As Tools For Fat Loss And Even Cancer Fighting

What a pleasure to introduce one of the true pioneers of the Paleo/Keto/Ancestral health movement—Maria Emmerich! Maria opens up about her story, which started 25 years ago at age 16 (truly one of the first to follow a ketogenic diet), sharing how she cured some tremendous health problems she had as a teenager, how this led to her writing numerous best-selling books, and her most recent book, Secrets to a Healthy Metabolism. Maria currently conducts keto-inspired retreats around the world, and in this episode, we get into how you can utilize keto and fasting as a tool for lifestyle transformation and improving your health, as well as how active, energetic people with good metabolic health can still adapt these strategies to work best for their needs. We also talk about careers—Maria takes us back to the time when she and her husband both hit a bottom in their professional lives and illuminates how you can turn a corner, build a following, and become a leader in your field. Finally, Maria shares the inspiring story of how she realized a true dream of hers (adopting children) and the steps it took to realize that dream.  TIMESTAMPS: As a teenager, Maria discovered Keto and managed her health problems. [00:44] Twenty-six years ago, her vet asked questions about her dog’s diet and she realized that her personal physician, who was handling her several health problems, asked nothing about what she was feeding herself. Maria started on Keto. [03:22] There are many people who look healthy to us but actually have Type 2 Diabetes. Dr. Maffetone says 91% of the modern world is over-fat. [11:17] Food addiction is like alcohol or drug addiction except it is more difficult to give up because we still need food.  [14:01] Maria went to Ethiopia to adopt her children. [19:42] What are some of the problems with things in the dairy category? [24:21] There could be a problem with people consuming enough protein in general. [28:26] What are the risks of extreme restrictive diets? [29:55] Do you have to choose carbohydrates or fat? It is an individual decision. [31:46] How has fasting played a role in her journey? [36:29] There is a clinic in Hungary where they treat cancer with a ketogenic diet. [37:22] Sometimes fat can be a protective mechanism. [43:28] Maria does Keto retreats in Europe and all over the world.

Dr. Luella Jonk: Relationship Insights Inspired By John Gray

I’m joined by the very interesting Dr. Luella Jonk—a psychotherapist and a functional medicine practitioner from Canada who is also a long-time listener of the show—to have a conversation all about relationships. You will hear us discuss John Gray’s essential relationship assignments as well as many other relationship insights—we talk about why we are obligated to take care of ourselves first before getting into relationships, why anxiety is so prevalent these days, the cost of trying to control other people and outcomes, the difference between mental health care in North America and in Western Europe, and much more!   TIMESTAMPS: We are obligated to take care of ourselves first. [01:56] It is important to understand how much your physical health affects your mental health. [07:12] Most of the couples seeking therapy, say the number one problem is communicating with each other. [15:23] Women’ roles have become more confused as they move from home responsibilities into the corporate world where they may be competing with their masculine energy. [17:20] Men’s role is to listen and not give advice when the woman needs to transition from the workplace to the home. [21:47] The modern male is charged with being all things to all people. John Gray says men should stay calm, cool, and collected. Choice of words, tone of voice, and body language play a big role. [24:54] You cannot control anyone or anything. There’s a lot of self-love that can be practiced. You are going to be all right. [37:28] Luella believes that North America is not doing as well with mental health care as perhaps western Europe.  [41:10] Why is anxiety so prevalent these days? [46:01] Lead with love rather than fear. [54:00]   LINKS: Brad Kearns.com B.rad Whey Protein Isolate Superfuel (Now available in Cocoa Bean flavor!)
