The Jay Ferruggia Show

Tom Incledon may have the answers to all of your health related questions.

He’s spent his entire career testing thousands of people and has seen it (and helped correct) it all.

Tom has more degrees and certifications than Eminem has rhymes. These include a B.S. in Exercise Science, B.S. in Nutrition, M.S. in Kinesiology, and Ph.D. in Exercise Physiology.

He’s a member in over 30 different scientific organizations and serves as a reviewer for several peer-reviewed journals.

But he’s no 130-pound lab geek in a white coat.

Tom has been ranked nationally in powerlifting, Olympic lifting, and strongman. His best lifts include:

187-pound one arm snatch (using a 7′ barbell)
286-pound power snatch
352-pound power clean and jerk
452-pound front squat
615-pound deadlift

Tom did all this at weighing under 200 pounds. So he not only talks the talk, he walks the walk.

In this episode, Tom and I discuss topics such as:

Techniques to improve sleep
Diets to prevent or help treat cancer
How BCAA’s can make you fat
Keys to reducing inflammation
Curing ankle pain... by rubbing your face
How to heal the gut and maximize fat loss
Neural exercises to enhance movement and performance
Is gluten good or bad?
Dietary tips for strengthening the immune system
The importance of your gut microbiome

#149: The Renegade of Self-Improvement -- Philip McKernan

Philip McKernan is a speaker, coach, writer and filmmaker.

He works with entrepreneurs and business leaders all over the world. When people are seeking clarity about their future or want to move through roadblocks, seen and unseen, they call Philip. As a speaker he has inspired and challenged the Canadian Olympic Team and The Pentagon, to name a few.

What separates Philip from a lot of coaches, speakers and gurus is originality. He brings new conversations to the table and spends an obscene amount of time thinking and challenging the status quo, instead of simply repackaging business & life hacking strategies.

I had a very interesting discussion with Philip on the most recent podcast.

Topics include:

Making the leap from mindset to "soulset"
The problem with goals
The importance of pursuing artistic endeavors
The benefits of improve and comedy
The problem with the self-help industry
How to real live authentically
Fixing your relationship with money
Is gratitude just another trendy buzzword
Why sometimes you need to stop and do nothing
Tips on building happy, successful relationships
