The Long & Thick Podcast

Thin isn't Thriving, Big isn't Brave, Mirrors Make us Crazy This is a heavy hitter of an episode. Buckle up friends! On this weeks new episode, Daniel and Ronnie dive into some subjects that are almost always challenging to discuss. . Obsession with being thin . Scale fixation versus muscle & metabolic health . Body positivity as an unhealthy enabler . GLP-1's, performance enhancing drugs, and physique overload In some way shape or form, everyone can relate to having a moment in time when they found an issue with their body size or image. We make some very important distinctions in this episode regarding disordered eating, self love, and how it's easy to enable behaviors that may not be serving us for the long haul. Be sure to give us some feedback as we know these areas are highly sensitive and our main goal is to help better the community that has been listening along with us and those who may soon listen and join in the shared mission. Love, L&T

Building The Bigger Picture - How to build what you want in life This week on The Long & Thick we round out the fourth and final day of our free workout program. As a reminder, listeners/viewers now have a fully fleshed out 4 day program they can start tracking and progressively overloading. Throughout the month we have shared one new day of the program and talked through the exercises and why we chose them. We can't wait for you to try it fully or even just add a handful of exercises you may not have otherwise done. Zooming out - The Bigger Picture For the main segment of this episode Ronnie & Daniel ask each other what things they each want to be building towards in regards to: . Career . The Long & Thick Podcast . Personally One major piece we ended up chatting about is the way humans need to continue creating. The push towards efficiency and AI have caused more and more people to do less and analyze more. Asking 10 thousand questions before starting an endeavor and staying stuck. We also dive into the importance of having things in our lives that we do that aren't for money, pushing back against the capitalist machine that can slowly drip all the juice out of your soul. We hope you found value, challenge and laughter with this episode and we would love if you left us a review or shared the episode with someone you think would enjoy it. Tell us what we got right, what we got wrong, and some of the things you hope to build in your own lives! Love, L&T

12//52//365 - One ACTUAL Year At time of recording, we actually came full circle to putting out an episode every week for a year. We have chatted about end of year ideas during episodes nearing the close of 2025, but this for us is a true large accomplishment. Most podcasts don't make it past 3 episodes let alone 20. We have blown that out of the water and it is large part due to your support! We could not have done this without the help and appreciation from our listeners and viewers. The goal has and will remain the same, helping people. Cutting through the noise. Cleaning up the health and wellness space from people you can trust. This episode was a fun celebration of recanting some of our favorite memories that have taken place in thanks to getting to work on this podcast. All of the amazing interviews and conversations, memories, and future goals being dreamed up are touched on. We hope you enjoy the trip down memory lane with us! If you enjoyed, please leave us a review and share it with someone you think will enjoy it as well! Love, L&T

What methods do we use to cope with the difficult parts of existence? What are some of the tactics we latch onto when trying to avoid? Healthy? Sometimes, but usually not. We take turns each sharing 4 different things we have noticed within ourselves when the going gets real tough. No one is perfect, including any and every human you have interacted with. Surprise! What are some of your escapist tendencies? What things would you like us to cover in future episodes? Let us know and if you want to show some love and support, leave a review and share the episode on whatever social media you may be using! Love, L&T

What a title...On this episode of The Long & Thick Podcast we decided to mix fun with critical thinking and it made for an interesting cocktail. We each had to come up with our top three answers to the following. Stranded on an Island, what three exercises would you pick? What are you top three favorite supplements? What are your three most important values? You'll have to listen to find out the answers! ALSO - for the month of March we will be giving away a free workout. At the beginning of each new episode (released every Friday) we will share one more consecutive day of what will ultimately become a very viable program for people to follow. The structure for the first day of the program is focused on upper body movements. Tune in to find out why we chose what we did and please feel free to ask questions. The goal of this podcast is to provide value for those who spend their time listening!

On this episode of The Long & Thick Podcast... We each brought 6 unknown categories/things The other person had zero prep and had to instantly decide: Love it or Leave it. But there’s a catch. If you love it — you have to defend it. If you leave it — you have to replace it with something better and explain why. Some of the categories are fitness-related (training trends, recovery tools, etc.). Others are completely random. This episode is raw, unscripted, and exposes how we actually think when we don’t have time to polish an answer. If you enjoy: Honest debates about health & fitness Real-time reasoning Light and fun chaos with structure and swift recoveries This one’s for you. Listen on Spotify & Apple Podcasts. Watch on YouTube.

In this episode of The Long & Thick Podcast, we decided to each share one recurring thought we keep coming back to. Both thoughts lean negative. We discuss: Why modern American life feels overwhelming How media, technology, and constant stimulation affect mental health The sense of paralysis many people feel right now Loneliness, outrage culture, and attention economics How we’re personally reframing these patterns without ignoring reality This is a more contemplative episode. Less banter, more reflection. If you’ve been feeling mentally overloaded, stuck, or discouraged about the direction of society, this conversation may help you zoom out and think more clearly.
