The Better Man Podcast

Some people don’t need any kind of external motivation to exercise. They’re in a routine, and their day feels chaotic when they don’t do physical activity.    But the vast majority of men, especially men over the age of 40, need a little pick-me-up from an outside source every now and then. And that’s where having a fitness community can be the difference between achieving your goals and giving up.    And you know what?   The external motivation provided by a fitness community is only one benefit… and it might not even be the most important benefit either.    In this week’s show, MFY Coach & Community Manager, Jesse Lee, joins me to share some of the other overlooked benefits a fitness community can have. Jesse’s been “in the trenches” of the Man Flow Yoga Community Facebook Group since 2019 - so he’s seen it all.    Here’s what Jesse and I share in this episode:    The weird way a fitness community improves your “limbic system motivation”  Common mistakes men make when communicating with other men that can derail your fitness momentum  The most overlooked benefits of community particularly for men    And more.    Other highlights include:   The incredibly helpful, but severely neglected “Normalization” technique that helps men alleviate stress and overcome tough problems (5:46)  How to outsource some of the burden of working out to other people (and the weird way this makes you more consistent) (10:17)  Coach Patrick’s Jedi mindset trick that instantly helps you reframe negativity into an empowering sense of positivity (16:17)  The “limbic system motivation” secret of fitness communities (21:13)  Why creating distance from your emotions instead of talking through them can actually help you recover faster from ruminating thoughts (26:21) The most refreshing sentence you can tell yourself when you're dealing with tough emotions (29:23)  Simple ways to incorporate more exercise into your morning (and why this is a cheat code for consistency) (38:11)    Listen now!   Resources mentioned on this episode:    1.

Chris, co-host of the We Got Balls Podcast, shares valuable insights about the often-overlooked topic of men's sexual stories. He discusses how childhood experiences and cultural backgrounds shape these narratives, emphasizing the importance of understanding one's past for emotional wellness. The conversation dives into the complexities of trauma, addiction, and the healing power of authenticity and connection. Chris also urges men to confront their shame and engage in open dialogues to foster healthier relationships.

A lot of people think they’re too old, too overweight, or too stressed to take their first step on their fitness journey.    But as today’s guest, Matt, so eloquently stated in the episode, if you don’t start today, you’re going to be that much older when you do start. Since we only get one shot of this game of life, why not start today?   And you know what?   That’s exactly what Matt did a decade ago. When he realized he couldn’t fit the airplane seatbelt over his body, he decided to make the simplest of changes:   He walked three quarters of a mile to Subway for a sub instead of driving. While this decision seems tiny, it was massive in hindsight.    Ever since that Subway walk, Matt dropped 50 pounds, started jogging, then cycling, then running 5ks, then half-marathons and marathons. And today, he’s completed a half-marathon or century bike race in 32 states (and plans to finish one in all 50 states by the time he turns 50).    No matter your age or what stage of your fitness journey you’re on, Matt’s episode will give you a dose of inspiration to conquer your next workout.    Here’s what Matt and I discuss on today’s episode:   Why tiny decisions can lead to significant changes (without overwhelm, burnout, or injuries)  Simple mindset tweaks that will help you finally take your fitness seriously  The trick for permanently conquering any kind of bodily pain    And more, including…    How Adam dropped 50 pounds by doing these 3 simple things that anyone can start doing (3:25)  Have you ever ended up in urgent care from lower back pain? Here’s how Adam conquered his back pain for good (he’s had zero instances of back or knee pain in the past 18 months!) (5:31)  Why Apple Fitness yoga pales in comparison to Man Flow Yoga (13:08) How outsourcing accountability to a community makes your weight loss journey less daunting, less overwhelming, and easier to stick with (even if you haven’t noticed results yet) (21:21)  The “Reframe Your Age” secret for setting new PRs as you grow older (23:58) The weird way a Man Flow Yoga habit will help you get over “gymtimidation” (28:30)  How to stop your mind from procrastinating on your fitness once and for all with the “put your shoes on” mindset shift (34:12)    Listen now!   Resources mentioned on this episode:    Strength Foundation Challenge: If you want to follow in Matt’s footsteps (literally), he started his Man Flow Yoga journey with the Strength Foundation Challenge - and you can too here: https://manflowyoga.com/strength_challenge-2/    Other important links:    Want to unlock more flexibility and strength, reduce your risk of injury, and feel your absolute best over the next 7 days?

Men have a tendency to believe that their sexual health is an optional part of their overall health. But, as you’ll learn in this episode, it’s actually an essential part to holistic wellness.    Why don’t more men talk about it then?    Well, most of us were raised in a way that either neglected the role sexual health plays in overall wellness or completely stigmatized sexual desire as “bad.”    This mistake carries significant consequences for men: They feel intense shame around sexual desire, their sexual abuse cases go unnoticed, and the sexual harm they experienced (which is something every man goes through) never gets discussed.    In other words, neglecting and stigmatizing sexual wellness causes men to fall into destructive and self-sabotaging behaviors. At least that’s what today’s guests, Scott and Chris from the We Got Balls Podcast, have discovered since launching their raw and real community for men.     Scott and Chris have both battled sexual trauma and were left unimpressed and frustrated by the typical healing modalities. That’s what led them to create the We Got Balls Podcast as well as their own men’s group to help other men heal from their sexual trauma and become better men for it.    Here’s what Scott and Chris share in this episode:    Why is it so uncomfortable to talk about sex?  The difference between sexual abuse and sexual harm (and why they both happen more often than you think)  The alarming age when boys first watch porn    And so much more!    Other highlights include:   The controversial reason why men get sexually abused as much as, if not more often than, women (7:05)  How sexual trauma resurfaces in your adult life (and how to actually deal with deep pangs of shame before they undermine your marriage) (12:05)  Why a culture that’s generally hostile to masculinity creates toxic masculinity (and how to embrace masculinity without being toxic) (13:26)  Why it’s no longer possible to protect your child from pornography (and how to prepare them for it so they don’t get sexually harmed or worse) (25:39)  The single most neglected part of holistic wellness that’s silently sabotaging men’s lives (29:45)  Why even the best-intentioned religious teachings on sex backfire and create intense sexual traumas (33:04)  The “Identity Shift” secret for permanently changing your destructive behaviors (36:12)    Listen now!   Resources mentioned on this episode:    1.

If you’re trying to lose weight, do you have a plan for when you plateau? Or when you travel?    While these might be the last things on your mind at the beginning of your weight loss journey, they can sneak up on you. And having a plan can be the difference between keeping the weight off or putting it back on.    Today’s guest, David, knows all about the ups and downs of a weight loss journey. After his daughter was born, he ballooned up to 300 pounds. After realizing he had to be there for his daughter, he made some dieting tweaks and lost 50 pounds.    Problem is, he plateaued for years… until recently! Today, he weighs less than he ever had since his daughter’s been born… his aches and pains have vanished… and he’s far happier than he ever remembered being.    And you know what?    Since David travels frequently for work, he’s also cracked the code to maintain your weight while traveling.    If you’re struggling to lose weight, or just need a dose of inspiration from someone who’s been in your shoes, listen now.    Here’s what David and I share in this episode:    How to travel without gaining weight  Why it’s possible to lose weight and still feel crappy  How to create the right environment - in your home and at work - to make losing weight easier    And more.    Other highlights include:   How David lost 50 pounds after realizing he couldn’t pick up his daughter’s toys without losing his breath (and how he rekindled his weight loss journey after plateauing) (3:16) Why Man Flow Yoga eliminated David hip and lower back pain (when walking, other yoga classes, and even lifting weights didn’t help) (9:10)  How “bribing” yourself when you can’t find the motivation to start a weight loss journey can kick you into gear (18:20)  Why you need less time strength training than you probably think (23:36)  This simple “Worth It” mindset protects your health and fitness from spiraling out of control when you travel (24:51)  A simple and surprisingly effective way to calm your anxiety down (34:27)    Listen now!   Other important links:    Want to unlock more flexibility and strength, reduce your risk of injury, and feel your absolute best over the next 7 days?

Everyone knows that working out consistently is one of the most important things you can do for your longevity, your health, and your mood.    But knowing this doesn’t make working out any easier. If that was the case, nobody would be overweight, have back or joint pain, or have low self-esteem.    Turns out, there are certain emotional saboteurs—in the form of limiting beliefs and insidious, subconscious mindsets—that wreck your “fitness quotient,” or FQ - before you even begin!    But perhaps nobody else on the planet understands the deeper, emotional causes of self-sabotage in fitness better than today’s guest: Carl Daikeler, co-founder of BODi (fka Beach Body).     Carl helped create some of the most popular workout programs of all time (P90X, Insanity, 21 Day Fix) by understanding the deeper reasons behind self-sabotage and inconsistency.    In today’s show, Carl shares some of the most powerful strategies to improve your “health-esteem,” your FQ, and become more consistent with exercise.    Here’s what Carl and I share in this episode:    How to “trick” your brain into looking forward to and enjoying exercise  Why nothing will motivate you more than visiting an assisted living facility  How to become aware of (and eventually conquer) the deeper, emotional barriers that keep you from being consistent    And so much more.    Other highlights include:   This story about an assisted living facility might just scare you enough to make fitness a top priority (even if you’ve been inconsistent in the past) (9:22)  The “explore life” secret for actually looking forward to working out (10:28)  Why your “FQ” may be more important for your longevity and wellness than IQ or EQ (14:00)  How to find ways to trick yourself into enjoying exercise (especially if it’s always the last thing you want to do) (15:02)  Why believing your fitness routine is selfish is an excuse to be lazy (17:19)  Why taking Ozempic or other GLP-1’s without combining it with strength-building exercise and protein consumption is a grave mistake (19:23)  A few dirt-simple tweaks to your lifestyle that make a significant impact to your “health-esteem” (20:14)   A deep, unconscious mindset that actively works against you to sabotage your fitness (and how to become aware of it… and conquer it) (25:22)  This Jedi mindset trick turns your negative limiting beliefs into empowering absolute truths (28:38)    Listen now!   Guest Bio:    Carl Daikeler is a visionary entrepreneur, and the CEO and co-founder of The Beachbody Company, leading innovator in the fitness and nutrition space. With a career spanning over four decades, Daikeler has been a trailblazer, pioneering unconventional and highly effective methods to help individuals reach their health and fitness goals.

Let’s be honest: Exercising isn’t always exciting and fun. If it were, consistency would be an afterthought instead of an uphill struggle.    But what if you actually looked forward to your next workout?    That’s what happened to Kevin, today’s guest…    Kevin, like myself and many other Members, was a theater kid growing up.  (You’ll have to listen to the episode to learn about which embarrassing play I acted in during my senior year…) Like many theater kids, Kevin had subconsciously boxed himself into the “theater kid” mentality for most of his life. So, he never felt like a fitness person: Not when he lost 15 pounds in 60 days Not when he overcame his “gymtimidation” and tacked on muscles that his wife noticed before he did And not even when he signed up for Man Flow Yoga, which raised his “fitness awareness,” improved everything he was doing in the gym, and led to him losing 40 pounds   Any one of these accomplishments on their own tells me that Kevin was an athlete or a fitness person. But it didn’t sink in for him until, well, he attended the Man Flow Yoga Weekend Workshop in Chicago last year.  In Chicago, he had a pivotal mindset shift that made him think of himself as a fitness person. Since then, he’s enjoyed (almost) every workout, crushed every goal he’s set for himself, and stopped falling into the deadly comparison trap.  Kevin shares several nuggets of wisdom in this episode that apply no matter where you are on your fitness journey. For example:  Why focusing on results sabotages an otherwise effective fitness plan  How changing your relationship with food can make weight loss feel effortless  The secret to seeing exercise as fun and exciting instead of like a chore    And more!   Other highlights include: 2 questions to ask yourself before your next meal that conditions you to eat healthier (5:13)  Why it’s easy to eat as many as 4,000 to 5,000 calories per day without even realizing it (and what to do if you catch yourself in this situation) (5:36)  How just walking can light a fire under you and inspire a snowball effect to your fitness (7:41)  Why it’s almost easier to start a weight loss journey when you’re bigger (hint: you can lose weight rapidly with just a few simple tweaks) (8:11)  The weird way thirst and boredom disguise themselves as hunger (9:55)  How yoga helped Kevin stop waking up with Charlie horses in the middle of the night (even after he lost 50 pounds and went to the gym consistently) (18:41)  How to convince your mind that you won’t be judged at the gym like it thinks (these 3 things will help you get over any “gymtimidation”) (22:16)  This mindset shift stops exercise from feeling like a chore and actually makes it exciting and fun (29:13)    Listen now!   Resources mentioned on this episode:    Man Flow Yoga Events: Want to experience an identity shift that makes you look forward to working out like Kevin did?

What is possible if you recognize that you are a gift and always have been?   Well, according to today’s repeat guest, Dr. Dain Heer, this recognition aligns you with the infinite being you forgot you are.    I know this might sound a little woo-woo, but tapping into this infinite energy can shut your inner critic up, help you reframe mistakes and leave them in the past, and eliminate all of your fears and limiting beliefs.    (Don’t believe me? I go through a truncated version of his mindset protocol during the episode… I encourage you to follow along and then make up your mind afterwards.)    Despite the spiritual nature of this episode, there are real-world ramifications that can make you happier, more fulfilled, and less judgy. In fact, just listening to it can open up an infinite amount of possibilities.    All you have to do is be willing and open to it.    Dain and I cover a lot in this episode, including:   The myth of fear (and why it’s a choice to let your fears shape your entire existence)  Dain’s oddball “Clearing Statement” technique that requires nothing from you besides a willingness to try life differently How to instantly tell truth from lies (even within yourself)  Why a Judgy Mindset crushes the infinite being you are    And so much more.    Here are some more highlights:   The sneaky way a judgement mindset subtly poisons consciousness itself (and simple technique to instantly tell if you’re being judgy - to yourself or others) (1:59)  How to reframe your choices, including crushing mistakes, in a way that cuts off the insidious judgement cycle (7:22)  This mindset tool will sound like absolute gobbly goop (until you actually use it) (7:57)  Why Dain believes that 98% of your thoughts, feelings, emotions, and judgements don’t actually belong to you (and how understanding this allows you to unclench your mental fists) (11:39)  How to let go of your 3 biggest limiting beliefs right now - with only a pen and a piece of paper (19:28)   Watch Dain take me through his “POC-POD” method for clearing my own limiting beliefs about productivity and success (and follow along if you can with your own limiting beliefs) (24:07) Are you controlled by fear (like most humans are)? Dain proves why fear does NOT exist at (36:56)    Listen now!   Resources mentioned on this episode:    1. Go to https://DrDainHeer.com to claim Dain’s free gift to you, Waking Up Miraculously.    2.

This episode is the season finale of Season 5, where I focused exclusively on interviewing Man Flow Yoga Members about their fitness journey.    I wanted to talk to down to earth guys who were making actual improvements in their health to help you understand what other men are doing to get healthier.    While some Members had life-saving stories, others were struggling with their health and fitness or still on their journey to their healthiest self.    But each Member Interview had at least one thing in common: At some point, the guys I interviewed had some sort of significant event that led them to say, enough is enough.    And from there, they started making small changes that snowballed into significant improvements in their quality of life.     I hope this Member Interview Series inspired and motivated you. And most importantly, I hope it made you realize that you’re not alone.    Here’s what I’m sharing in this episode:    The biggest takeaways from the Member Interview Series  Why slow and gradual change is the most effective long-term strategy What’s coming up in the next season of the Better Man Podcast    Other highlights include:   Why you don’t have to lose 100 pounds to significantly improve your quality of life (1:21)  What other Man Flow Yoga Members found most helpful from the Member Interview series (3:30) The biggest stumbling block most men encounter on their fitness journey (and how the Man Flow Yoga Community helps you conquer it) (6:09)  How to “borrow” success and motivation and confidence from others (7:00)    Listen now!   Other important links:    Want to unlock more flexibility and strength, reduce your risk of injury, and feel your absolute best over the next 7 days?

Today’s guest, our web developer Richard, has practiced Man Flow Yoga longer than any other person. He watched a few of my first ever YouTube workouts… and 12 years later, he’s still doing Man Flow Yoga 3-5x a week.    Even though he hates working out!    Since Richard has been doing Man Flow Yoga workouts for so long—and because he used the workouts to recover quicker and almost return full functionality to his knee after getting diagnosed with a rare cancer in his knee—he’s chock-full of wisdom, especially if you don’t feel like being healthy all the time.    My favorite part about Richard’s story is how he isn’t healthy all the time. He misses workouts and eats unhealthy foods sometimes. But he stays kind to himself (which used to be his biggest struggle before his cancer changed his perspective).    Despite his general aversion to working out, he’s mastered his body and mind and uses some never-before-heard tricks, like his "Arbitrary Goals” trick, to inspire himself to exercise consistently.    If you want to know more about the Man Flow Yoga lore, you struggle with being kind to yourself when you misstep, or you just secretly hate working out like Richard does but know it’s essential to a healthy life, do yourself a favor and listen to this episode.    Here’s what Richard shares:    How to workout consistently even if you hate it and don’t feel endorphins from it  Why yoga prepares your body for ANY kind of strength movements  The importance of self-compassion (and how to build it if you have none)  How to be okay with failure    And so much more, including…    How to incorporate fitness into your life even if you don’t think of yourself as an athletic person (2:30)  The weird way in-person yoga classes expect you to know how to move your muscles (and how this causes injuries for men) (4:06)  How Richard built a consistent exercise habit (even though he still does not enjoy working out) (6:13)  Why yoga sped up Richard’s recovery and gave him nearly full function of his knee after developing a rare type of cancer in his knee (7:56)  How losing too much weight can make you feel worse (and how to figure out your ideal weight) (15:49)  The "Arbitrary Goals” trick to build consistency when you’re just starting to exercise (17:57)  How to have great posture even if you’re hunched over a laptop or book all day like a gargoyle (20:51)  The single best way to start your day that prevents the sands of time from sabotaging your body (22:24)    Listen now!   Quotes from this episode’s guest:    (3:45) Man Flow Yoga was one of those ones that was like, I could do that at home by myself. I had  tried classes before and they weren't ever really my jam. I don't like the music that a lot of yoga classes have.  (6:46) I have never felt endorphins from working out.  (20:06) Right now I'm doing kettlebell training five times a week. And I am  doing complex, heavy movements. But because I also do yoga three to five times a week, I can come in and I’m the only one who’s not sure. It made me realize, “Oh, I can do things and feel fine afterwards because I have done other things, like yoga, to make me feel fine.” (22:25) If you could have a different keyboard setup, that could potentially improve posture. Or you could just do yoga in the morning. (23:53) Yoga prepares you for a lot of other strength movements just because it's the core. It's being aware of what your body is doing and where your body is moving and the planes of movement your body goes through. And that kind of branches off into almost every other type of thing you're doing—whether it's martial arts or Olympic lifting or kettles or throwing hucking logs. (28:32) Treat yourself with self-compassion. Just be kind to yourself. In everything. It's okay. If you fall off the wagon, you didn’t, you're just on a little detour. It's fine. If you eat a whole cake, it's fine. It was probably a great cake. Enjoy it.  (30:39) The first step at being really good at something is being really bad at it. (34:35) Progress isn't a straight line. It's a series of ups and downs.
