#113 - Longevity Advice Is Simple Until Marketing Ruins It
Your feed is packed with “longevity experts” who have the credentials, the acronyms, and the confidence but somehow keep repeating the same advice with more hype and less help. We get real about doctors on Instagram, the temptation to sell complex formulas, and why academic authority can turn into arrogance when bedside manner disappears. We’re not anti-doctor at all. We’re pro good doctors,…
#112 - Parenting, Time Management, And Staying Fit Without Burning Out
Most people think becoming a parent means putting your health on the back burner. We think that’s backwards. When you’ve got kids watching you, your habits stop being “personal” and start becoming the culture of your home. We talk candidly about the early parenting grind, why you need some grace, and why you still need a plan to keep moving even when your energy is gone and your schedule is…
The Open ends and the emotional whiplash starts: you’re fired up, a few movements just exposed you, and you’re either ready to level up or ready to forget the whole thing until next year. We walk through what actually works after the CrossFit Open, including how to turn “I need to get better at that” into a realistic plan built on discipline, not a temporary motivation spike. We also get into the…
#110 What If Your Libido Is Your Body’s Dashboard Light
We unpack the blunt claim “if you’re not horny, you’re not healthy” and turn it into a practical conversation about hormones, lifestyle, and what libido can and cannot tell you about your health. We share real-world examples from training, sleep, stress, alcohol, nutrition, and medications to help you spot red flags and make smart changes without panic. • libido as a subjective signal rather than…
The CrossFit Open, Competition Mindset, Ai and Health & Fitness, QA Instagram Questions
Competition can make you better or it can mess with your head. We use the CrossFit Open as the springboard to talk about what’s really being tested when you put yourself on the clock: your fitness, your recovery, and the internal voice that wants to quit early. We share why we still respect the Open, why “you versus you” beats chasing a questionable worldwide leaderboard, and how ego and identity…

This episode brings recognition, strategy, and a hard look at the small choices that add up—good and bad. We start by celebrating discipline you can see: the annual Committed Club and three new names on our 2,000 Visit Club. Those banners represent ten-plus years of…

Holiday Weight Gain Isn’t all Fat (Stop Panicking in January) | 2026 Reset
New year energy is great, but the real edge is calm, repeatable action. We open 2026 with a straight talk on travel, training, and why you probably didn’t “gain 12 pounds of fat” last week. If you trained hard all year, a vacation can be strategic recovery—your tissues heal, your head clears, and you often return stronger. I share what I actually did on a family cruise: short, full-body sessions,…
Week of December 29th – Closing Out the Year Strong
Resolutions feel great for a week, but momentum comes from something quieter: simple systems you can repeat even when life gets messy. I’m closing the year with a candid look at how to turn big goals into small, non-negotiable actions, why time audits beat motivation hacks, and how to set timelines that match real human progress instead of social media promises. We start by reframing the whole New…

The early bump from caffeine shows up in both groups, but by week two the high-carb athletes surge ahead with…
