Ep 167: 7 Reasons Why You Are Not Losing Weight

The Absolute Strength Podcast

10/02/18 • 108 min

In this episode, I talk about 7 reasons why you are not losing weight or fat. For most people, it's not a lack of information that is holding them back the most. On the surface level, most people know how to 'diet". It's the little things that create the most problems - a sedentary lifestyle, untracked eating, not navigating restaurants and celebrations correctly, lack of patience, and more. This is a long one so sit back, relax and enjoy!

Ep 165: Balancing Life as a Parent, Athlete, and Fitness Coach with Brian Minor

The Absolute Strength Podcast

09/28/18 • 90 min

In this episode, I sit down with fellow Dad and fitness coach, Brian Minor. This episode is a little different. We wanted to touch on a topic not talked about much - parenting from the father's perspective. How has being a parent changed the way we train, run our companies, and manage time? Look, even if you are not a parent (yet) this episode can be valuable. Living life with more purpose and getting better at time management are two things almost everyone can improve on. Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
