Defining Dad Bod

Following a tough an enlightening show about what we don't know regarding carbs and fats last week, I thought it helpful to sit down with two medical practitioners to have a more practical discussion about nutrition practices in everyday life. How do I know what supplements to take?Is sugar really evil for my kids?Should I try one of the new diets out there?And alot more. Isaiah and Jamie from xfitlabs give us a chance to pick their medical and parental brains with regard to common questions about nutrition that you won't find answered as honestly and helpfully on your social media feeds or via google search.

Which would you like to do? Lose fat and gain muscle - OR - work on your mobility, nueromuscular control, and joint capsule integrity?Well, if you're like most people, the former is much more desireable in the immediate than the latter. But if we don't take good care of our joints, how long do you think you can keep a low body fat percentage and great muscle tone?Not very. I brought on the owner of PhysioFx in Dallas to walk us through how we can do a better job at understanding the form and function of our joints and keep us from neglecting the impact of such practices while we pursue our "sexier" fitness goals. I believe the conversation will have you standing by the end...Maybe due to excitement...but more likely due to the functional resistance of the whole thing: weight distribution through the foot, glute activation, hip stability...you get the picture :) Commit to a free week! - Definingdadbod.com/trialGet weekly show updates from Defining Dad Bod - definingdadbod.com/ddb1Join the inner circle! - definingdadbod.com/innercircleConnect with PhysioFix - https://www.facebook.com/YourPhysioFix/

Sometimes you have to be the canary in the coal mine.And sometimes you have to fly out of the coal mine and look at the 10,000ft. view As a trainer of over 13 years running in circles of gym owners, influencers, medical professionals, dietitians, and even corporate executives in the fitness industry, there are some major problems that need to be addressed if the amazing opportunities of health and fitness are going to be realized for ourselves and generations to come! And those problems are not simple. However I believe that understanding the problems as both consumers and professionals in the space is the first step to making some headway with them AND - perhaps - being able to accept the personal responsibility that we all need to pitch in with in order to fix the problems.1) Real estate companies masquerading as health and fitness institutions2) Social media influencers bought by supplement companies (and followed by you)3) Taking/eating everything your doctor prescribes or food companies put out WITHOUT ASKING QUESTIONS!4) Exercising for the sake of burning calories5) The 3-4 hours per day that almost everyone in the modern world is spending ACTIVELY SABOTAGING their goals6) Sales pitches thinly disguised as fitness assessmentsI hope you find this dissection helpful and that wherever you fall in this mix, it helps you improve your ability eliminate noise, pursue real results for yourself, and to make good decisions for your family and community.Mentioned in the showdefiningdadbod.com/blog/suppsGet more from Defining Dad Bod definingdadbod.com/ddb1Join the inner circle definingdadbod.com/innercircleCommit to a free week of coachingdefiningdadbod.com/trial

Meditation has been shown in inummerable studies to be a powerful way to impact your health in as little as a few minutes each day. And as such is an important part of mastering phase 2 of the Defining Dad Bod hormone pyramid - cortisolOf the things I ask clients to do - including consuming more protein, strength training, reducing sugar intake, etc...- nothing elicits more questions about execution than meditation. Alex, how am I supposed to sit in a room and do nothing? That's a fair question, but according to our guest today, an incomplete one! Meet Brian King - he's been practicing meditation and teaching it for longer than I've been a trainer and our conversation will definitely shed some light on how to incorporate meditation into your health and fitness program!
