Navigating the world of health and fitness can be a daunting task, especially with the barrage of sensationalized social media content clouding our judgment.

Follow Adam @bornfitness Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Why a strong mindset is essential for overcoming adversity and maintaining health, nutrition, and fitness habits. How our behaviors are often shaped by our mindset and self-perception, which are crucial for long-term health and success. Instead of focusing on extreme measures, prioritize practical and sustainable habits for a balanced lifestyle. Sleep, hydration, and nutrition are fundamental to maintaining good health, but often overlooked due to sensationalized social media content. Embracing failure can help us anticipate and navigate self-sabotage, leading to more successful health and fitness plans. The concept of inversion can help us build successful plans by starting from potential failures and working backwards. It's crucial to understand our individual preferences and lifestyles before choosing a health or fitness plan. Adherence to a plan is more important than the plan itself, emphasizing the importance of personalization in health and fitness. Building self-awareness and understanding where you might fail can help you identify plans that are more likely to work. Striving to be "so good they can't ignore you" is a powerful mindset that can lead to personal and professional success. ----- Episode resources: Learn more about Strong New York Watch and subscribe on YouTube Get your LMNT hot electrolyte drink mix at https://www.DrinkLMNT.com/everforward Save 15% on organic lattes and coffee with code CHASE at https://www.StrongCoffeeCompany.com

Ep 755EFR 755: Red Light Therapy For Reducing Inflammation, Pain Management, Gut Health, Brain Health and Improving Sleep with Forrest Smith
This episode introduces alternative methods for recovery, focusing on red light therapy, a.k.a. photobiomodulation. Guest Forrest Smith of Kineon Labs explains their benefits for athletic performance, reduction of recovery time, minimizing inflammation and even unique applications for gut health, brain health, and improving sleep. Follow Kineon @kineon_labs Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Over-the-counter drugs such as NSAIDs, often used in sports and fitness, can carry significant risks including cardiovascular disease, liver damage, stomach ulcers, and a decrease in neuroplasticity. Photobiomodulation devices can provide a safer and more effective alternative to pharmaceuticals for enhancing athletic performance and recovery, reducing inflammation, and improving metabolic health. Regular, deep sleep is vital in the recovery process and can protect the brain from the buildup of waste materials. Understanding the biochemical and physiological processes behind performance and recovery can help identify and address the root causes of issues. Nitric oxide plays a critical role in the body, helping with blood vessel dilation and delivering more blood to muscles. However, as people age, the production of nitric oxide decreases, making it important to find ways to stimulate its production. Chronic inflammation is highly damaging to the body, impacting everything from muscle performance to cardiovascular health. ----- Episode resources: Learn more about Kineon Labs Light therapy for bipolar disorder: a case series in women The impact of wavelengths of LED light-therapy on endothelial cells Red Light Therapy Improves Reaction Time in Athletes Watch and subscribe on YouTube

Ep 751EFR 751: Cave of Bones - A True Story of Discovery, Adventure, and Human Origins with Dr. Lee Berger
Prepare for a journey to a time when an ancient species co-existed with Homo sapiens. My esteemed guest, Dr. Lee Berger - one of Time Magazine's 100 most influential people of the year - and I will take you deep into the heart of this captivating past. We will navigate the uncharted waters of human evolution, guided by the discovery of Homo Naledi, a discovery that challenges our very notion of what it means to be human. Follow Lee @thefossilvault Follow Chase @chase_chewning ----- In this episode, you will learn... Dr. Lee Berger's discovery of Homo Naledi, a new species in human evolution, drastically challenges traditional understandings of human evolution. The species exhibited complex cultural practices such as mortuary rituals and engraving symbols, pushing the limits of our understanding of non-human culture. The Homo Naledi species co-existed with Homo sapiens hundreds of thousands of years ago. The discovery contradicts the previous narrative that Homo sapiens were the only species in Africa, leading to a reevaluation of our assumptions in the field of archaeology and human evolution. The Homo Naledi species was found in extremely difficult-to-reach caves, showcasing the complexity and extent of their behaviors. The very use of these caves for their cultural practices, combined with the discovery of symbols, fires, and tools, suggests a higher level of intelligence and complexity than previously assumed for non-human species. The discovery of Homo Naledi had a profound personal impact on Dr. Berger. Not only did it challenge his understanding of human evolution, but it also put his life at risk during the exploration process. ----- Episode resources: Enroll in the 2024 Ever Forward Mentorship Learn more about Cave of Bones book and the documentary-series on Netflix
