It's that time of year again — Thanksgiving!!! 🍁 🌽 🍁 If you've been around for a bit, you know this is my favorite holiday. Usually, I share information to help you lose fat, build muscle, ward off disease and live a legendary life! But today I want to pull back the curtain on what's been going on behind the scenes of Legendary Life. It's probably easy to (mistakenly) think that I have a perfect life. That I get to train multimillionaires in Miami Beach, workout all the time, and interview thought leaders and experts on my show. You may think that I don't have struggles or hard times. But this journey has been mostly a struggle both personally and professionally. Although I wouldn't change what I do today with the show, I think it's important to share with you the ups and downs we've experienced. The holidays can be a difficult time of year for many people. By sharing our story, we hope you know that you're not alone in your struggle and that you mean the world to us. While the importance of 'gratitude' is often discussed this time of year, I've found that sharing your life and struggles can be even more powerful. You'll understand exactly what I'm talking about, in today's episode. Also, we share about how Gisele and I met, our journey from the beginning of the podcast until now. Something happened these last 12 months that completely changed our lives. And forced us to make a drastic decision about our future. At the end of the episode, we share 5 things you're doing now that you'll seriously regret in 10 years. Warning: It's the most emotional episode that we've ever done. It was hard to share the tough times we went through and everything that we did (and are doing) to push through and make a difference despite what life is throwing at us. Thank you so much for reading, listening, and welcoming us into your world. All our love, Ted and Gisele P.S. We prepared a special Black Friday Sale with 70% OFF, starting tomorrow night and ending Sunday night. Don't miss this opportunity to save money and invest in your health, and body. P.P.S.

You've been walking the straight and narrow—eating healthy, working out—and yet you're not dropping pounds or getting fitter. What gives? The answer may be hiding out amid the random things you do over the course of an average day—those little habits that have seemingly no connection to weight loss, but may in fact be sabotaging your best get-fit efforts. Listen to this episode to find out why and what to do about it. So you started out by making a decision to clean up your diet and to begin an exercise program. At first the results come fast. A few weeks go by and you're down a pounds on the scale. Your muscles feel much stronger and you 're starting to see a difference in the mirror. You think, "Wow, why didn't I do this before. In another few months, I'll be looking like one of those fitness magazine models!" Except, that never happens. A few months in and your results have stalled. You think, "I need to exercise more and eat 'cleaner'." So you start doing more exercise and only eat whole foods…with an occasional indulgence in some junky goodness. But you're STILL not seeing much of a difference. In fact, you're not sure if you see any difference at all even though you're doing more exercise than before. You, my friend, have hit the dreaded plateau. You think to yourself, "I'm doing everything right. Maybe I hit the limit of my genetic potential. Or maybe my metabolism isn't as fast as it used to be in my 20s. Maybe I'm just too old to get into great shape." Well, like the saying goes, I've got good news and bad news. The good news is that your fat loss plateau is NOT due to a your 40-plus-year-old metabolism or hormone levels or endocrine disrupting chemicals in the environment. Maybe those play a part but none of them are the reason you've hit a plateau. And the best news is that you definitely can break through your plateau and start getting results again. Now for the bad news… You're going to have to do things differently because you're program isn't good for you anymore. In fact, I'm wagering that you'll also have to change what you think you know about burning fat and getting lean. How do I know? Well, I've been in the health & fitness industry for over 18 years. I know how confusing it can be to weed through all the misinformation and B.S. to figure out what you actually need to do to get in shape. Hell, I've been in the industry for nearly two decades and studied pre-med/biology in university and I've still had a problem vetting all the claims and new findings to figure out what would give my clients (and myself) the best results. I've spent thousands of dollars and thousands of hours taking courses and attending seminars, hiring coaches and speaking 1-on-1 with some of the best and brightest researchers, nutritionists, strength coaches, medical doctors and more on my podcast Legendary Life. If you relate to any of the above statements then you're going to appreciate what I'm about to teach you about the #1 key to weight loss, why it's so hard to lose fat, your metabolism, how fat loss works and how to apply what you learn in this article to get results! Why It's So Hard To Lose Fat Most people hear about the skyrocketing rates of obesity and just assume that being overweight is some unexplainable phenomenon. My dad even asked me why being overweight is such a problem in America--especially since there are so many diet books, gyms, health blogs, etc. ALL about how lose weight. He was dumbfounded. In fact, the rate of obesity has doubled worldwide and more than doubled in the US since 1980. While some people argue that it's the sugar, endocrine disrupting chemicals, genetically modified foods or disrupted gut microbiomes that has caused us to get fatter, the more likely answer is much more simple. To answer this question, let's check out a graph from one of my favorite super scientists who are helping the fight against obesity. His name Stephan Guyenet and he is neurobiologist and obesity researcher. (And in case you're wondering what the heck a neurobiologist is doing studying obesity, I highly recommend you check out my interview with him on Legendary Life.) In the graph below, Stephan plotted calorie intake (green line) the prevalence of obesity (the blue and red lines) in the US from 1960 to 2009. As you can see, the amount of food we eat has steadily risen decade after decade as has our waistlines. Just to be clear, I'm also concerned about gut dysbiosis, endocrine disrupting chemicals, stress, poor quality sleep and other factors that are likely contributing to obesity and poor health. But I 'm always concerned with the most influential factor, the biggest bang for your buck, and it's clear that overeating and a sedentary lifestyle are the biggest culprits of the modern world's obesity crisis. Why Hunter-Gatherers Don't Have New Year's Resolutions One of my favorite studies to bring up is where researchers brought 24 overweight men and had them live under simulated Paleolithic conditions for

There's a lot of nutrition nonsense out there. The problem? With all these lies and bad ideas floating around, too many people are getting duped into ridiculous diets, absurd nutrition rules, and insane workouts that will ultimately leave them tired, frustrated, and hungry—but no leaner. Here are the biggest 7 fat loss lies and the nutritional realities behind them. Listen Now!

What are the most effective exercises to get abs? Listen to this episode to learn the 3 simple steps to get rid of stubborn belly fat and get you lean toned abs (even if you're over 40). Listen Now! If there's one question that I get the most, it's gotta be about how to "get abs. There's just something about being lean enough to see a well developed muscular mid-section that is seductive. It's easy to see people who've developed strength or built bigger muscles who don't have much definition. I call that "Muscle Fat". And it's common to see very skinny people with low body fat but unimpressive abdominal development. However, it's much more uncommon to see someone who's both very fit AND has an awesome set of abdominals to go with their physique. We view people who have great abs as sexier and in possession of something special and rare. It's like they've either been blessed with great genes or they've figured out a secret the rest of us haven't. And I understand. I've been skinny with low body fat but with very little abdominal development. I've also been bigger and more muscular but my abs weren't quite visible. And I've been lean, muscular where you could see a nice set of abdominals. When I was muscular and built with visible abdominal, I received many more looks and compliments. In fact, many people start off with the goal of seeing their abs as the reason why they started working out in the first place. That's usually when the confusion kicks in. Then that leads to frustration. Usually, people will start with hard workouts—until they realize that exercise has its limits when it comes to getting abs. Then they hear that "abs are made in the kitchen" and will start trying different diets. Ketogenic diet, paleo diet, South Beach Diet, Atkins, Bulletproof, and "clean eating". Yet, they still have no visible abs. There are also those poor souls who try all the fat burner supplements that are on the market—hoping that the secret to a six pack is in a bottle with some cool graphics on it promising to get you "cut." But they just end up with heart palpitations (if they take stimulants) or nothing at all (basically all the other non-stimulant fat burners). After months or even years of trying anything and everything, they still have no visible abs. Just a smooth covering of belly fat where their abs ought to be. If any of those sound familiar, then you've come to right place. Because in the next few minutes, you're going to learn exactly what you need to do to finally get that muscular and defined midsection you've been coveting. And it's a lot easier than the 20-year-old Instagram fitness gurus and internet nutrition experts have been telling you. When it comes to developing a physique with visible abdominals at any age, there are three basic things you need to do: Lose body fat Perform the right strength training exercises Perform the right abdominal and core exercises That's it. Pretty simple, right? No jacking up your heart with fat burner supplements or weird hard-to-follow diets needed. Let's dive a little deeper into each of these steps. 1-Lose Body Fat One thing to keep in mind about "getting abs" is that you already have them! Everyone has rectus abdominus as well as internal and external oblique muscles. You also have a transverse abdominus underneath your other abdominal muscles but it's not visible. However, it's an important muscle and can be trained so I'm adding it for completeness. The problem is that the majority of us can't see our abdominal muscles because they're hidden underneath our subcutaneous belly fat. As you can see in the picture below, our subcutaneous fat is in between our skin and our abdominal muscles. This is the fat that is in the way of you seeing those defined lines of a "six pack". It's also worth noting that there is also visceral fat—which is stored around the organs and underneath the abdominal muscles. If you have too much body fat and are sedentary, you are likely to quite a bit of visceral fat as well as subcutaneous fat. This contributes to that bulging belly look. By burning off the fat on your body with proper exercise and diet, you'll reveal those hidden abdominal muscles. Most of you—especially if you listen to my podcast—already know this. Even if you're not a listener, you probably suspect that you have to reduce the amount of fat on your belly to get your abs to show and you're right. But here's where most people go wrong. In fact, these are the two most common mistakes I see people make when they're on the quest for visible abs: 1. They try to spot reduce their belly fat with abdominal exercises. You may have even tried this yourself. You think "I want to see my abs so I'll do more abdominal exercises to burn off the fat in that area." Logically, that makes sense. Except, your body doesn't run on the rules of your logic. It's the rules of human physiology that we're dealing with here. Unfortunately, I've had to tell client after client this fact in my 18+ year

(38:18) The most powerful and versatile training method (42:09) Final advice from John (56:24) Ted's Take-Aways 1.Make sure you're learning from the right people in the fitness industry. I know that can be tough because there are so many people out there and it's hard to tell when someone has great marketing but they're not good. Or they have poor quality marketing but they're really good. That's why I have guys like John on the show. He is a solid professional to learn things from although I follow a bit of a different perspective. 2. If you are chronically getting injured you are not doing things right. You should not be chronically injured or getting injured when you go to the gym. Now, if you're playing a sport, then okay, injuries happen in competition while pushing the limits. But if you're you're training in a controlled environment like the gym, you should not be getting injured. The only exception to that would probably be a method like CrossFit—where people treat exercise as a sport. Again, that is nothing against Crossfit--although I do have my thoughts about the good and bad aspects of that method-- but that's an example of where you're pushing the limits and getting hurt is likely. Powerlifting is another example of where exercise is treated like a sport and the injury rate is higher than casual exercise. But if you're in there for general fitness and you're getting hurt, you're doing yourself a huge disservice because once those little minor nagging injuries become chronic, they become constant obstacles to progress and consistency. 3. Make sure you're doing some mobility work; make sure you do some flexibility work. In the interview, we didn't talk about the distinction between mobility and flexibility. To me, mobility exercises are activation exercises—but that's just a semantic difference. That's when you're activating certain muscles so you achieve a greater control through a larger range of motion of the joint. Make sure you're doing something in the gym to prepare you to ramp up your nervous system, to warm up your joints and your muscles. That will help you if you are already injured. Or if you're not, it will help you prevent injuries. Injury prevention is a tough sell for most people because if you're not injured you just don't usually care. If you're currently uninjured, then try to be smart and learn from other people so you don't have to learn the hard way like many of us have had to with frustrating injuries.

How much time do we waste reading about ways to become more productive? Do you really need to read another article about the top 10 habits of a billionaire?

Jeff will also be telling us about his new productivity academy, The Rockin' Productivity Academy and how you can be a part of it. Listen now!

Optimizing your life is supposed to simplify things. After a while, these gadgets become a distraction and you end up spending most of your time focusing on the gadgets and the preparatory steps but then you never take action. Try simplifying things to improve your productivity. You have to be fully committed to whatever you are doing —This is the biggest takeaway. If you are not fully committed to what you are doing, it will not work. Getting results take commitment. Find what motivates you and it will become easier to stay committed. Get a coach — If you believe you need help with staying motivated or you can't figure out what goals you need to prioritize, or if you have fitness goals that you're trying to achieve but you're having little or no results, it's time to get a coach. Having a coach will help you get over those obstacles that often causes you to stumble and give up on your goal.

Roughly one in three American adults is obese. Two out of every three adults are overweight. Why are we so fat? What is it about our modern lifestyle that is causing this epidemic? In this special episode, our guest, Keith Norris, will explain the root cause of our obesity epidemic and how ancestral health can help you overcome this and other diseases. He also shares how to use an "evolutionary lens" on other areas of your life to guide you towards living a life of passion and purpose. Listen to this episode and get ready to go Paleo and eat like a caveman. Brief Bio: In today's episode, Ted interviews Keith Norris, the co-founder of Paleo f(x)—the largest Paleo convention in the world. He made his transition from corporate America to following his passion of inspiring people to live healthier lives using ancestral health. In this session, Keith shared the more personal aspects of his life and journey from being an athlete, a veteran, and working in a Big Pharma to finally achieving success with Paleo f(x) and his gym business Efficient Exercise. He is also a blogger and has a manufacturing company that produces some proprietary exercise equipment. Moreover, he emphasized that the thrust of the whole conference is not just health but addresses the mental, physical, spiritual, emotional, financial and relational health that truly makes human beings thrive. He also talks about the false economy that is created when "healthcare" is about profiting from a sick and unhealthy population. You'll learn how to break the bonds that are keeping you stuck in an overstressed, unhealthy modern lifestyle to living how the human body was designed to with Ancestral Health practices. In this episode, you'll learn: How did he go from strength and conditioning coach to Paleo advocate (04:32) His big pharmaceutical industry experience (11:51) What is holistic health and why it's important (14:28) Why are we so fat (21:55) What motivated him to create the Paleo f(x) event (26:56) How Paleo Diet and Primal Living can affect your life (35:24) 5 Things you should know about stress and your health (42:26) Why we get sick (59:23) 3 Pieces of advice for all Millennials (01:03:04) The biggest reason why you should go to Paleo F(x) (01:10:08) Connect with Keith: Keith's Websites Keith's blog Theory of Practice Ted's Take-Aways 1. How our social networks have such a profound influence on us. If you're hanging around with people who don't aspire to, then don't be surprised if you're unable to get ahead in life and achieve the goals you set for yourself. You need to get around people who inspire you, who motivate you, who share the same types of goals. Do you have a strong support group? It doesn't have to be an online entrepreneur or meet up group unless that's the area you're in. Maybe it can be a church group for you, some type of a workout group or a public speaking group like Toastmasters. Just make sure you get around people who are pushing you forward and support you. There is nothing worse than getting motivated but feeling like the people in your life hold you back. 2. The evolutionary perspective is about understanding how human beings are wired. Whether you believe in the theory of evolution or not, human beings come pre-programmed. For example, you need to breathe air, drink water, eat food, move your body, sleep and more to be healthy. There's no getting around those facts. But if you think that those are the only things you need to be happy then you should look a little deeper. There's even research showing how negative people in our lives bring us down—even if you're mostly surrounded by positive people. And there's never going to be a time where you're going to be able to thrive around negative people. Start using an evolutionary lens on other areas of your life and not just the health and fitness parts. You don't always need to live like a caveman, but learning the rules of what makes a human being thrive physically, mentally and emotionally can make it more clear what you need to do to level up your life from where you are now.

Here comes a time in every man's life where he thinks, This is it. This is my last chance to get it together and get back in shape again. And the longer I wait, the fatter I'll get, and the harder it'll be. Is that you? The good news is in this episode, renowned trainer Bobby Maximus will reveal the best strategies to shred your body, build serious strength, and make you unstoppable fit. Brief Bio: In today's episode, Ted interviews Bobby Maximus, the general manager of Gym Jones and author of upcoming book Maximum Body. Bobby was also on the show in episode 170 talking about how to supercharge your health and fitness so check that out here if you haven't already. Gym Jones is the same gym that got people in shape for the movie 300 and works with pro NBA and NFL players, as well as elite Special Forces soldiers. The cream of the crop chooses to train at Gym Jones with Bobby Maximus because he is so knowledgeable. He's also been a writer for Men's Health for years, has his own shoe through LALO Tactical and a supplement through Gnarly Nutrition. In this episode, Bobby shares his process for writing this book as well as some of the topics and techniques in Maximum Body. This book is telling the truth in fitness, avoiding the hype and explaining what it really takes mindset-wise, fitness-wise, nutrition-wise to change your body. That's what this interview is all about, so enjoy! In this episode, you'll learn: Ted's review of The Maximus Shoe (3.57) The story behind why Bobby was asked to write his new book (6.45) Why there are no shortcuts to fitness success (9.38) Top 3 mindset tips and focus to make you unstoppably fit (13.25) 130-Hour rule to get fit fast (14.55) How to evaluate fitness information on the internet (21.20) Why fitness is a relative term (25.50) Workout templates and fitness system included in his book (29.40) Is personalized nutrition and supplementation the future?

Use the code for 15% off the pre-workout: MAXIMUSPRE Ted's Takeaways The importance of mindset when it comes to building the body that you truly want. So many people go wrong thinking they'll get in shape or lose weight for a specific time or before an event. It's likely going to be much harder and take you much longer than you expect. Bobby says it'll take 130 hours, in as short as 3 months. Or you can do it in 6 months but that's 1 hour a day 5 days a week. Are you doing that? Ask yourself, how committed are you? It's going to take a long time and much longer than you probably think. There are different rules for different people and you have to know what's right for you. If you've got injuries, if you've got kids, if you've got a stressful job, if you travel a lot, if you lack motivation, maybe that isn't the best approach for you. Especially with injuries, you have to be careful. You've got to know what's right for you. Bobby said we all have to know what we're aiming for and also what we're willing to risk. A 60-year old will have different types of exercise than an athlete It's going to take a holistic approach. Bobby didn't say it's just 5 hard hours of exercise per week. He said that 6 months transformation includes the proper nutrition, the properly lifestyle, the proper sleep, the proper recovery and the proper supplementation. Crush your short-term expectations. Be real. You can't get around the time and hard work it takes to build something worthy. The Legendary Fat Loss System Keep these takeaways in mind.

Finally, the first quarter of the year has ended and I was eager to know how all of you are doing with your New Year resolutions and goals? What about your health, body and nutritional habits? Or have you fallen off the wagon, and found yourself procrastinating? Procrastination Well, guess what? I, too, have been a victim of procrastination. I had such a hard time committing myself to taking my business to the next level. Although I loved learning about health and fitness at that time, it was the business aspects like pricing and marketing that I hated the most! However, I knew that I needed to get a hang of those aspects, if I didn't want to end up in a worse situation than my late 20's —driving from client to client, feeling unfulfilled and hating on life. I stumbled upon a book by Steven Pressfield, called the "War of Art", and I repeatedly played that audiobook in my car. Soon, I was determined to break this cycle of procrastination, when it came to doing the things that would take my business to the next level. Most of all, I wanted to be able to help more people like me, whilst improving the quality of my life, as well as theirs. I started by implementing small changes that gradually turned into big changes… I haven't reached my destination as yet, however, I love the direction I'm going, enjoying every moment therein. You have no idea how fulfilling it is to perform these episodes, write articles and meet new people in the industry, and I want you to experience it, too. Believe me when I say, procrastinating not only stops us from achieving our goals, but also feeling good about ourselves. In order to stop procrastinating now, consider the following procrastination tips: The pause button mentality "Yeah, I will get back to eating healthy after my vacations." "Oh, I'll get back to shape once the baby is born." "Starting from January, I'm going to start living my life the way I have always wanted to." …Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Yes, these are all part of the lame excuses we all tend to make, some way or the other. Although the reasons for the pause button mentality may seem practical — it is, in fact, ruining the results you could have achieved in the long run. The REAL question here is; are your goals pushing you to become a procrastinator, instead of becoming a better person? In our Legendary Coaching Program, you won't find a pause button. If somebody has injured their lower body, they work their upper body and vice versa, but nobody stops! —Why? Because life cannot be constant and there will never be a perfect time to start something. We have to learn and believe that we can overcome those obstacles and still attain our goals. Now tell me, are you really pushing the pause button right now? If so, I want to propose an idea to you that completely changed my life! The Speed of Implementation Over ten years ago, Eben Pagan introduced me to this brilliant idea. Now tell me; whenever you hear of something new, how long does it take you to take that information and put it into play? Information that you know is beneficial for your life and your goals? For me, it used to take a long time. I would hear something and say, "Yeah, that's great", and then I would just forget about it. Are you, too, guilty of doing the same thing? Today I shall challenge you to start taking action as fast as you can, when you hear something that is right for you. The faster that you implement the good things in your life, the more successful you're going to be in all the aspects of your life. If not now, when? Start implementing the idea into your life —when you hear something that you know would be beneficial for you; I want you to put it into action right away. Try doing more of that, and you're going to be amazed at how fast you are able to change. The only way you can learn something, is by actually doing it... How did you learn to ride a bike? You read books, took courses and listened to Podcasts about riding a bike? —No! You got on the bike and fell off a couple times. That's how you learn and it becomes second your nature. Don't expect everything to be perfect in the very first attempt! The least you can do is try to experience it, because that's the only way you can truly learn. First ask yourself, where in life are you procrastinating? Be honest with yourself! And then, I want you to take up the challenge: "Speed of Implementation'. If you want to take yourself to the next level, you need to start implementing now! If you want to achieve your goals, you need to stop procrastinating instantly and take action!

On today's episode, we'll be discussing your health with Dr. Spencer Nadolsky. Dr. Nadolsky will also answer some questions from our listeners about blood work that will really help you understand the principles as well as the risk factors when it comes to heart disease, diabetes and systemic inflammation Listen Now! Brief Bio: Dr. Spencer Nadolsky, DO, is a practicing board-certified family medicine physician. After a successful athletic career at University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill, he enrolled in medical school at Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine in Blacksburg. He aspired to change the world of medicine by pushing lifestyle before drugs (when possible). Lifting, eating, laughter, and sleeping are his current first-line medicines for whatever ails patients. "Although, those don't cure pneumonia, unfortunately," he told MedPage Today. During his time as an UNC Tar Heel, Nadolsky was ranked in the nation's top four heavyweight division wrestlers. Nadolsky said he owes much of his success to nutrition, exercise science, and, of course, hard work. His goal is to use what he learned as an athlete and apply it to his patients to help them get as healthy as possible using lifestyle as medicine. He now practices in the Norfolk, Va., area. In this episode, you'll learn: Why Spencer isn't your average doctor (04:14) What is metabolic health (09:18) What is your waistline telling you about your health (11:46) Understanding your cholesterol numbers (13:03) 7 Ways to boost your metabolism (09:35) The link between diabetes and cardiovascular disease (19:21) How high blood pressure and stress damages arteries (21:56) How to find the right doctor (29:00) 5 reasons you are not seeing results (31:27) Listener's Question: "I'm a follower of Mark Sisson and Dave Asprey regarding diet and exercise. I am 49 years old and in pretty darn good shape but I have a high total cholesterol number since I have become more of a healthy fat eater. Most recent was 260, should I be concerned? My HDL was 70; my cholesterol HDL ratio is 3.8. They didn't list my triglyceride number." Dr. Nadolsky's Response: "When we look at some of these numbers in isolation it's easy to make blanket recommendations. I'll give a few different levels of how I would do this if he had some other health issues. If he is perfectly healthy and no other issues like insulin resistance and no blood pressure issues or a history of heart disease that number is on the higher side but not on the level where I would go, "Oh my God, you need to take a Statin or one of these other cholesterol medicines. It would be pretty high if you did have some other conditions like type 2 diabetes or some other risk factors. Age plays a role, smoking and blood pressure and stuff like that. So we take the whole patient and do all these calculations to see the risk but at a very healthy state of life, it's probably not too concerning but definitely something to ask your doctor about looking at your whole health. A lot of times these high-fat diets focus on a lot of butter and coconut oil and some of these in certain individuals can raise your cholesterol but a lot of the low carb people will say it's harmless and not a big deal but I would argue that it takes a long time to build atherosclerosis so a lot of these studies they don't show that. I would personally change the diet just a little bit to hopefully lower those levels but your HDL is very good and your total cholesterol is a little bit high but if you really want to check you can get what's called the high sensitivity c-reactive protein test which can show if you have some inflammation going on and that can risk stratifying a little bit more to basically say, hey this level is high and you're actually at a higher risk of having heart disease or things like. Or if it is low you could say maybe you're not as much at a risk. There is another thing called a calcium heart scan, coronary artery calcium score that you can get that also risk stratify you as well. It's hard to say in isolation it is on the higher level but if you are perfectly healthy in everything else in your life I wouldn't be jumping to medicine right away." Listener's Question 2: "Why does the health care system demonize cholesterol and what roles come into play for optimal health?" Dr. Nadolsky's Response: " I will try to defend other doctors by saying it's a system failure. I think as family doctors specifically we have the broadest scope of medicine you could ever think of. We have to know pretty much a little bit of everything...but the system fails. If you have to see 20-30 people in a day and your cooperation is pushing you to see more and more patients to meet overheads...You get forced to read just brief guidelines and then the guidelines in your mind you're not following those even though these things are very brief. So, you not even following what we call evidence-based medicine because the guidelines are there and very good at discussi

You don't have to be in your 20's to be muscular, lean, and strong. The fundamentals of good dieting and effective training remain no matter what age you are. In this episode with Alex Vianda, he'll share with you a handful of strategies for maximizing your fitness after 40. Listen now! Brief Bio: Alex Viada, NSCA Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and USA Triathlon Coach, is the founder and co-owner of Complete Human Performance. A lifelong athlete, he has participated and competed in nearly every sport imaginable (some with greater success than others), since being dragged to his first swim meet when he was four years old. Alex has close to 13 years of personal training and coaching experience with over 300 athletes of all ages and levels, in sports ranging from bodybuilding to ultra-running to triathlon to cycling to powerlifting. He has also prepared close to 40 individuals for Ranger School, SFAS, BUD/s, and other selective military programs. His Hybrid Training method is simple — it consists of breaking down the demands and unique stressors of every type of training an athlete requires, and programming to target specific demands, not "labels" (i.e. "strength training," "conditioning," "endurance training," etc.). The result is a style of programming that has produced a significant number of powerlifting triathletes and 300+ pound runners. Many athletes working with Complete Human Performance find themselves setting personal records in strength, speed and distance at the same time–something that was traditionally seen as impossible.

I know a thing or two about getting bigger, leaner and stronger, and I'm going to share my system with you now. But before I do, you should know that you don't need a crazy diet or insane workout program to start seeing amazing results in your body. You simply need a serious plan.

Want to Live Longer? In this new episode, our special guest, Dr. Ben House, reveals the four pillars of optimum health, lifestyle changes for longevity, and the difference between conventional and functional medicine. Also, he explains how stress can lower men's testosterone levels and much more. Listen now!

Dr. House is also a Nutritionist (CN), Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist (FDN), and Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (CFMP). House was accepted to medical school without an undergraduate degree, but rescinded because during this time his father was fighting for his life with debilitating diverticulitis. The conventional medical model prescribed him pain killers, antibiotics, saltine crackers, and white bread. This pushed House to question the sick care model and look for the underlying lifestyle and dietary factors that could be the reason why his father was in so much pain. Lo and behold his father had Celiac disease and within a week of removing all grains and diary from his diet he was symptom free. This was Dr. House's first taste of Functional Medicine and he knew at that moment that this would be his life's passion. Since then he has studied under some of the best in the world and continues to regularly attend and present at conferences and seminars around the world. As a strength coach, House has worked at both the high school and collegiate levels, including time under Coach Wright at the University of Texas Basketball.
