Unlocking Your Inner Strength

My video crew, the Turks, aka Has Media, has been wanting to hook me up with one of their other clients, Jake, for quite some time. Jake has a very interesting background, from being in the military to Mexico, back to the states and now going back to Mexico. Jake ran a half marathon in costume, without consuming any water and then went on to run a full marathon without any water as well. Jake is the type of man that when he puts his mind to something, he does it. He was in the corporate world for a bit, but his soul kept telling him that he was destined to become a Coach. I got along with him so well because he, too, follows the unconventional route in life. If you are in need of a shot of inspiration, check this episode out! You can follow Jake on all social media channels @lifelikejake. And if you're not already, You can follow me on IG @thepandamanofficial and on YouTube @kylenewell1000.

In today's episode, I was fortunate to have my good buddy, Patrick Tromley, aka the Level Up Dad on the show. Patrick is a shining example to his 3 sons and men that he Coaches on how to be a man. Patrick and I discussed the lack of male leadership and the situation that we now find ourselves in as a world and as a country. One of the great things that you'll gain from listening is that Patrick was in the Real Estate field for quite some time, but it never lit him up. It was a means to an end. And then, he found his true purpose, Coaching others. When I asked him what advice he would give his 25 year old self, he said, 'Get into alignment quicker'. It's such a rare thing to see a man that has found his true purpose and who is pursuing his true purpose. You will walk away a smarter person for listening to this episode, for sure! You can take a listen to the episode here: And make sure to follow Patrick on Instagram @thelevelupdad. And if you're not already, You can follow me on IG @thepandamanofficial and on YouTube @kylenewell1000. Finally, I am calling you out! I need to get more reviews on my show. If you like what I am doing and putting out there, please just take 2 minutes and drop a gem of a review, that way the word can reach more people! You rock!

Two weekends ago, I was out at the 'Mansion Mastermind'. I hired Wes Watson in February to Coach me for 6 months on the next part of my journey. (I'll have a YouTube video on my experience next week). Normally when you go to a mastermind, there are a million things to do after the fact which usually leads to nothing more than you just being pumped up for a few days and then nothing happening. I just got down jotting down my takeaways and there was really one thing that Wes said to me right at the end. He said, 'Pandaman, you are going to be big time. Everything is there, just keep on it. It's going to happen. Just be more blunt speaking to the men out there that need you'. That was it, that was the thing I invested 10K into going out there for. It's time for me to engage the dark side of the Panda, which I go over in this episode. I will no longer allow dads and men out there to passively remain weak and out of shape, because to do so would mean that I am failing with my unique gifts and I am letting that man's children down. Take a listen to the episode if you're curious about the duality of the Panda. Which is, afterall, why I chose the Panda.

A few weeks ago, I had the chance to have my buddy, Mike, aka GasMoney, of Norther California on the show. And I was impressed. Mike started playing travel baseball when he was 15 and quickly became better. To the point where he walked on at D1 school, St. Mary's and within his freshman year, got a chance to play and never left the starting line up again. Mike took that same approach to his fitness business and has created a world wide following. One of the things that Mike talks about is working with the 'laws of the universe'. If you find yourself chasing and wanting, you are doing things wrong. Allowance and belief is the way. You guys can follow Mike on Instagram @gasmoney1 and on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@moneygas1.

Man, my head and heart are still buzzing about after having a great conversation with my new friend Kyle Carnohan of SuperHuman Fathers!!! This guy is a beast!!! He has 5 kids, a beautiful wife and was at the top of his game as a Fireman, or so he thought. Right around the birth of his baby girl just a few years ago, he had a calling that he needed to become more. And that path, that intuitive insight, has led to such a powerful movement in which Fathers are becoming SuperHuman. I have been around a lot of high level people, and I can tell you that Kyle is vibrating at a very high level. There are so many gems, so much inspiration and tons of wisdom in this hour-long session with Kyle. I am beyond grateful that he spent the time with me and that I get to share it with you all. If you want to get in touch with Kyle, you can text his real cell phone (this is not a gimmick) at 760-277-7219. And for his daily inspiration, you can follow him on IG @Superhumanfathers. Or you can go to the website at www.superhumanfathers.com or finally, watch the bombs he is putting out on his YouTube @ Superhumanfathers. Enjoy the show and spread the word!!!

I've been studying fat loss for literally 25 years now. That means the nitty gritty science as well as the psychological aspects of it. And I can tell you that the mind is the key factor in whether or not you will get results and keep those results. In today's episode, I break down what these 5 factors are and how you can use them. Keep in mind, people will disagree with me, but in my humble but accurate opinion, these are the ONLY things that truly work.

In this episode, I had the honor of sitting down with Coach G of Guerrero Fitness. Coach G was driving trucks for 19 years and was always in the gym. He was what he called puffy strong, jacked arms, but with a gut. Then, on Thanksgiving morning while playing handball with hid buddies, one of them called him out for having his shirt off. That buddy put him on to Coach Wes Watson. Coach G was intrigued and doing his research on Coach Wes when his youngest son called him out at the dinner table for being chubby. That was it… Coach G went full in on his own personal transformation that others started to take note. Now, Coach G is building an empire with Guerrero Fitness and it's only just the beginning. Success leaves clues and in this episode, Coach G lays out his daily routine and the law of compensation. So, if you are after more success in life, all you have to do is listen to this episode and copy what Coach G does. This was one of my favorite episodes so far! You can follow Coach on IG @guerrero__fitness and on YouTube at Geurrero Fitness Lifestyle. Enjoy the show and don't forget to share the love by leaving a review and sharing the episode with someone out there that needs to hear this!

4 years ago, climbing Mt. Washington was not on my radar, at ALL! I had driven it a few times on vacation, which was terrifying because of my lizard brain response to heights. I'm talking like palms sweating and cold sweat on my brow. So, to imagine that I have attempted to climb it the past 3 years is something else. Each time, I get a PhD in human psychology. In today's episode, I go over 3 lessons learned from this 3rd time up the Mount. In short: -The social aspect of eating and bonding -Making a life or death decision in an instant -Downloading direct knowledge from the Universe and God You'll have to listen to the episode to find out what I learned in more depth. And while you're over there, please don't forget to subscribe and leave a review!

I first met John nearly 2 years ago in a Mastermind group that we are a part of. John has won numerous, prestigious awards as a part of that group and he runs a thriving gym down in Texas. Not only that, but John is also a Doctor and he is in phenomenal shape! But, it wasn't easy, not by any means. In fact, John was, not long ago, in a depression and funk, barely making it by in his business. John took those darkest of times and performed mental alchemy on himself and the speed at which he totally transformed his business and life are incredible! In fact, this may be the only show of my own that I need to go back and take notes on!!! Enjoy the show! You can follow Dr. John on IG @drjohndougherty You can follow Kyle on IG @thepandamanofficial

Man, this one was a good one! I walked away inspired and pumped!!! I met Brad Dunn of Reliant Fitness through our Coach, Wes Watson and I've been admiring his message and work in the world of inspiring, Coaching and being a Thought Leader…. Brad began his professional career as a mechanic that wound up being a standout Fire Fighter in the state of California. His path to becoming a real life superhero began long before…way back when we was a 'runt' as he put it, as a senior in highschool, standing 5'5" and 130 pounds soaking wet. Brad has a very unique philosophy that intrigues me and takes a very spiritual approach to his lifting and physical fitness (I love it when I find another strong man that has this approach, so cool!). You will walk away from this episode with many lessons, but my favorite is having the indomitable mindset and discipline to know that YOU will succeed no matter what, as long as you keep your mind focused on the task at hand…. Enjoy the show!! You can follow Brad on IG @reliant.fitness You can follow Kyle on IG @thepandamanofficial

I began training Greg as a junior in high school back in 2010. Greg was the most explosive athlete ever to come through Newell Strength. Since that time, Greg has gone on to do some amazing things, all by following his unique path. Greg was recently the runner up on the Bachelorette. The amazing thing about Greg is that he turned the show down on their first offer to him because he was living by his core values. Greg has much wisdom and experience for someone that isn't even 30 yet! In this episode, you'll get to hear about Greg's ups and downs, from behind the scenes of the show to his father's tragic passing.

This might be the best episode that I've ever recorded, so get your notepads ready and enjoy the show!

Over the past decade, a strange harmony has merged into my life. Much of what I teach and practice has strong roots in Indian culture. I did not pick this stuff up such as my Panda fasting, urine therapy, cold immersion, transcendental meditation through studying their culture…. It simply comes to me in the form of inspiration, I then apply it right away to my own life and then I teach it if its working for me. In today's podcast, I go deeper into how I came up with the unconventional Panda Method that I teach. Remember, you can either follow the herd, or not. The choice is yours and there is no right or wrong… What is your spirit telling you to do? Go Follow me on IG @thepandamanofficial

A Man Without a Plan is a Man with a Plan to Fail Back in 2014, I was in a slump for a few months. I couldn't quite put my finger on why. Luckily, Vince, who's been my Coach since 2012, was able to ask me a few key questions on one of our calls to get to the bottom of it. It turned out, it was a simple fix. I had, for some dumb reason, stopped planning my days out the night prior. Which left me feeling aimless and without purpose. I got back on my daily planning and the 'fog' lifted. In today's episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I go into depth about how to use the Newell Strength planner and the brain science behind it.

I had a concerned friend and client reach out to me while on vacation. He wanted to know why I was on social media so much on a vacation. Admittedly, that's not what I normally do. In today's episode, I explain why that was the case and why your dreams are fleeting, you have to hunt them down when the inspiration strikes. ‼️If you're interested in my FREE fasting manual and 'Lost Secrets of Fasting' recording, you can go to: www.kylenewell.com/manual‼️ You can also follow me at: ➡️IG: @thepandamanofficial ➡️TikTok: @thepandaman_official ➡️YouTube: @kylenewell1000

Last weekend, I had to tell an old buddy a hard truth. Most people don't like to listen to the hard truth, but, all progress starts with the truth. As we dive into part 2 for the Battle for Your Mind, I discuss: discipline, simple vs. easy, your body as a reflection as to what is going on in your mind and the power of having a Coach. Put the stuff from last episode and this episode to use and if you liked it, share it with someone that needs to hear it.

This past weekend, we went skiing at Blue Mountain. Devon grew up skiing, I did not. She already has our kids whipping around the mountains, so I know that if I want to be a part of that as we grow older, I need to learn. Now, for me, that involves quite a bit of fear. In the latest episode of ULYIS, I discuss: self-doubt, self-talk, dealing with death at a very early age and physical vs. psychotic pain. I use the physical pain to access my psychotic pain as a chance to work the all important muscle known as the mind.

Two weeks ago I had my quarterly Mastermind meeting with my CEO group. And that very same week, I joined a new mastermind program online. I am a magnet for knowledge. Why? So I can improve and share. You see, I learn by teaching. I grow by learning. I grow by teaching. I am always seeking knowledge. In today's episode of Unlocking Inner Your Inner Strength, I share with you 3 concepts that you can use to sharpen and strengthen your mind. Remember, it all comes down to your mind. P.S.- For my free fasting manual and 'Lost Secrets of Fasting' audio you can go to www.kylenewell.com/manual.

A few weeks ago, my old buddy, Carl Sanfilippo, came by for an early morning workout followed by an episode on the podcast in our new studio. It has been amazing to watch Carl grow and become super successful. So naturally, our conversation was largely about success and how he runs his companies and his life. I highly recommend that you take a listen and absorb what he has to say about confidence and consistency, with a little clarity mixed in.

A few weeks ago, Devon had a tough love conversation with me. She was challenging me on some of my limiting beliefs. And my inner wimp was squirming inside my head, I wanted to exit that conversation pronto. But she persisted… And I had a breakthrough. Stop avoiding your shortcomings. Stop just thinking about what you want to do. Do it. Your life is a direct reflection of your choices and actions up to this point. No one else is to blame.

As you read this, I am almost half way through my journey on 75 Hard. And in case you haven't seen me on social media, I used it as leverage to test Indigo Panda on myself. Instantly, Indigo Panda reframed 75 Hard in my mind. Make no mistake, both of these programs are physical only on the surface. What they are really meant to do is to take you to another sphere mentally, and therefore spiritually. In today's episode, I sit down in our new podcast studio and discuss in a rare interview format, my experience thus far and the mindset it takes to do something like this.

I remember back in high school basketball, when I really began pushing myself and studying how to maximize my potential, I was willing to do stuff that other kids simply wouldn't do. One of the most feared things every year at tryouts, the day after Thanksgiving, was when Coach would have us run an endless amount of suicides. He was weeding out the weak. There were puke buckets on the sides. So, I ran suicides for months leading up to tryouts my junior year. Let's just say that tryouts were relatively easy for me, while I got to watch in amusement as the others were dying in their suicides. I practiced tough, which made the 'real life' easy. This is what you want to do with your everyday living. In today's episode, I discuss 4 simple ideas that you can incorporate every day to 'steel' your mind.

When I first began competing in bodybuilding back in 2004, I thought I knew a lot. For my first few contests, I was able to tough it out. Extreme will power and determination. But, as you may or may not know, you cannot form a lifestyle out of pure willpower. Once it really clicked with me that it's all mental, it became so much easier to life fully in my fitness and fasting focused lifestyle. Yes, there is discipline day in and day out, but I enjoy what I am doing. I need to be ready at any moment to take care of my family. Being a Ripped Dad is about being ready to: save your own life, save someone else's life or being able to kick someone's a** when needed. It all starts in the mind.

In 2014, we ran our very first Ripped Dads contest. I remember at that time being so pumped to watch the transformations happen and that we had such a niche program. Well, over the past 8 years, I have grown to love this contest since I am now a father of 3 that knows the struggles of fatherhood and I have seen the impact we can have on dads. Secondly, I have also come to realize over the years that it's all in the head. Your mindset is everything….EVERYTHING! In the latest episode of ULYIS, I discuss 3 things every dad can do, right away, to take their life, relationships and career to the next level. Any surprise that the first thing I mention has to do with the mind????

How Will We Impact 1,000,000 People A few weeks ago, I was refining our 1 year vision for Newell Strength and I had written one of the things as, 'To impact over 5,000 local lives'. The only problem was….it didn't excite me. And if it didn't excite me, you can be sure that my team was probably not excited. So, I sat there one night and thought about it and BAM! The 1 year vision in that realm was to impact over 1,000,000 lives around the world. Now, this might sound impossible, but it's not. With that thing called the Web and our strategies for social media, it might actually be too low. But, when Evan, our Marketing Director, asked me during a recent brainstorming session, 'What is the impact? How will we improve over 1,000,000 lives?' I didn't hesitate in my response…. MINDSET. That's my thing, and that's what I am going all in on. Even the Panda is a function of mindset and Mind Map. In today's episode, I drop 3 critical traits for mindset that you can start implementing right away.

I have been studying success for a long time. And while success is a personal thing, based on your own definition of success, we can still find clues from those we view as successful. I have been fortunate enough to have some great Mentors and Coaches in my life. In today's episode, I share with you the top 5 things that I have learned that have helped me including: time management, reading, tough workouts, association and mindset. Enjoy!

Two weeks ago, I was interviewed on the Michael Becker show and the main topic was leadership. It seems to be a common thing that people are interested in, so I thought I'd make a podcast for you, about my views on leadership. Remember, it starts and ends with you as a leader. Standing up in the face of fear is easy when you have values that you live by. And making decisions is much easier when you have rock solid, foundational values. Take a listen and let me know what you think!

I have been blessed with the ability to help people achieve what they didn't think they could achieve. And they were right, they couldn't achieve it YET, on their own. They just had to be shown the path. A big part of how I have been able to do this is through physical fitness. It's a doorway into the psyche of a person. In today's episode, I cover my KISS training principles, including: -Train the hip and grip and all will be good -Train your upper back, a lot -Train at or near your anaerobic threshold -Challenge yourself -The 5 basic movements Keep it stupid simple (I know, this is my own twist on the KISS acronym). Enjoy and let me know your questions!

In today's episode, I discuss how my Panda Fasting helps in these areas: -Weight loss -Simplicity -Reduced inflammation -Autophagy -Hormones -Detoxification -Brain Health and...gaining more time. I hope you learn something and put it to use. Enjoy!

2 days ago, the first ever Muscle Camp at Newell Strength began. It's a 6 week program, designed to put on 3-6 pounds of muscle. That may not sound like a lot, but I assure you, it is. If you missed out on this round, don't worry, we will do it again at some point and the 12 specific workouts will be put into a manual that you can purchase.

I had quite a few 'ceremonies' to initiate myself into my 5th decade of life. It began with a nice trip into my mind and spirit overnight. Then, I put my body to the test on 4 hours of sleep, fasted for 72 hours, blood donated the night before and the list goes on. It was an initiation, a breaking down of barriers, killing of my 40 year old self if you will. Consider creating some ceremonies for your next birthday and an initiation process into that year of your life. I hope you enjoy the episode!

10 days or so ago, we took the time on a Sunday, later afternoon, to come up with our Family Core Values. It wasn't something we necessarily wanted to do, but we really needed to do them. Sure, it would have been nice to procrastinate, but then we would still have the same emotions rising up. In today's episode, I share with you our Core Values, but more importantly I explain the importance of having Core Values and knowing your own personal definitions in life.

The BIG Four-1 41 years ago today, I was born. August 10th, at 10:10 AM. And I have to tell you, that this is by far the best I have ever felt in my life. I am not just saying that. The funny thing is, I have multiple people every week asking me what I have been doing differently. I tell them, not much, besides finally 'getting it'. Something clicked and now I have been propelled to another level of health and fitness. How my body looks is just a side effect. Remember, it all starts by making a decision.

3 years ago, Emma was born. Yes, our little warrior princess is growing up fast! 3 years and 10 months ago, I figured out a loophole in supplementing with testosterone. You see, I have always been a practitioner of direct knowledge, mainly through self-experimentation. And one of the areas of expertise that I have developed this in is in testosterone replacement therapy.

As I've gotten back into the training aspect at Newell Strength, I have really been enjoying listening to and thinking about the philosophy of some of the bodybuilding greats. Men that have inspired me and that have played a huge role in my development. Socrates has a quote that resonated with what I have been thinking alot about lately, 'No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.' You shape your mind through your body. Your body is the temple, treat it as such and watch how your philosophy of life changes.
