Defining Dad Bod

I talk alot on this show about the challenges that Dads face in their pursuit of health and fitness - let’s talk about Mom! Jessie McCall’s 60lbs transformation over the last 8 months is a powerful one for a few reasons. 1) Post - partum weight loss is something many mothers wrestle with. “Losing the baby weight” is a desire mom’s have even 5 years after their child is born. Jessie’s story lays those obstacles out and is a real account of how to get that weight off. 2) Post - partum depression is a real problem. And the psychiatric literature shows consistently that exercise is a powerful buffer to depression and perhaps one of the few reliable cures for Moms and Dads alike. 3) Often, the “get up early, get to the gym” thing is associated with men only. Jessie’s story turns that paradigm on its head as her program gets her up before her son wakes up and she diligently pursues her betterment for her and her family’s sake. She would tell you - if she can do it, any mom can!Connect with Our TribeMore information: definingdadbod.com/innercircleReady to Redefine YOUR BOD?

There are 5 levels of need according Abraham Maslow…and only 2% of the population operates at the highest level - Self -actualization. Experiencing the BEST version of yourself. Let’s talk about how a powerful exercise program is unique in meeting an important need at every level of our psyche. Physiological, Saftey, Social, Esteem, and ActualizationWorking out regularly will move you right up the line! I learned this, personally as a poor kid growing up below the poverty line. There was just something inherently powerful about being poor, but choosing to engage in regular exercise consistently anyway. And today - I’m not so poor - exercise still continues to help meet address multiple levels of this hierarchy. I hope you’ll use what you have well and do the same!

When I asked my social media connections to refer me to someone to debate the calorie science with - they delivered!“I doubt the great Layne would take the time, but if he did — It would be a lecture!”Which, on its face, is quite the claim! However, through some channels and magical internet tags, Layne Norton was looped into the conversation and agreed to have the discussion. And here that is. Is the calorie counting science missing a thing or two?Should we approach this differently as coaches?Are there caveats?Layne and I dive into the weeds of our philosophy with regard to coaching clients to achieve their goals through nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle change. And while we differed on a few finer points, we were both pleasantly surprised at the results of our “debate”. Join us while we bring the nuances to light and do what we both wish more professionals - both researchers and coaches - did more often.

Popularized by Crossfit - You may think "As many reps as possible" (AMRAP) and "every minute on the minute" (EMOM) are only tools for the box. Wrong.The crossfit culture did much to popularize these constructs, but much like the 5 by 5, 3 sets of 10, and "300 hundred" workouts -- they're simply program design tools that can be powerfully used in the right hands. Let's talk about how you might use them strategically and effectively - outside of the box.
