EP84: What Is Your Pain Tolerance?
January 17, 2019 09:30 - 25 minutes - 23.4 MBWhat is your pain tolerance? I'm not talking about boxing and getting punched in the face, although I may as well be. What I'm really talking about is your ability to push in the direction of where you want to go, even when it seems like it's completely uphill the entire time. Day in and day out, the incline just seems to get worse and worse. You lose weight, and then gain weight, and constantly feel like you aren't making progress. But you're doing everything right - you're following ...
EP83: Your Summer Body Starts NOW
January 15, 2019 09:30 - 30 minutes - 27.6 MBWhen during the year do you start thinking about your Summer body? If you're waiting until Spring to think about it, visualize it, and act towards building it, you're waiting too long. Building your Summer body really starts in the late Winter. Why? It takes several months for the body to adapt to activity, lose weight, build muscle, etc. There is no healthy scenario where you can drop significant amounts of weight in short periods of time. Before you address trying to build a Summer body...
Mindbuilding
January 10, 2019 09:30 - 34 minutes - 31.2 MBWe are all born with a brain and a mind. But our PERSPECTIVE, our BELIEF, our ACCEPTANCE of what is likely, possible, probable, and impossible is based on a logical set of principles that we are groomed to operate by. Why is this? Why do we have an internal default setting for believing what is possible, what is not possible? This is nothing more than a framework that we are instructed to believe from a young age. Despite the best efforts of our parents and teachers, most people do no...

Schedule Your Life, Get Results
January 03, 2019 09:30 - 19 minutes - 17.9 MBThe way in which you approach your day can make all the difference in the world. I don't necessarily mean going into each day with a specific attitude (though I do believe in that 100% as well). What I'm talking about here is structure. How is your day structured? Chances are, not very well, even if you think it's structured well. In this episode, I dive into methods of setting up each and every day so that you can be the most effective, efficient and successful with your time. Of cours...
How to CRUSH IT In 2019
January 01, 2019 09:30 - 35 minutes - 32.5 MBHow will you dominate your fitness goals in 2019? We're not talking about New Year's Resolutions here, we're talking about the fact that it just happens to be 2019 now, and you have 12 months until we're back at this point next year. How are you going to reflect on your year, 365 days from now? Do you want to look back and say "Holy shit! I was so successful in losing all of that weight, and putting on muscle, and now I look and feel amazing!" ??? Or do you want to look back in a year...

How to Fight Body Adaptation
November 22, 2018 09:30 - 24 minutes - 22.6 MBYou know those people that go to the gym but don't really ever seem to make progress? They go to the gym, they sweat, they throw some weights around or hit the treadmill, but they look the same month in and month out, year in and year out. If you're this person, this episode is for you - your body has adapted to your routine, and likely your nutrition as well. How do you fight this? Many ways, including: progressive overload, hypertrophy, nutrition cycling, workout cycling, introducing n...
Why You are Not Seeing Muscle Definition EVERYWHERE
November 20, 2018 09:30 - 25 minutes - 23.1 MBHave you been hustling HARD in the gym and frustrated because you just aren't seeing the muscle definition in places that you want to see it? This is VERY COMMON! In fact, it happens to EVERYONE! Why is this?! The reason is because we cannot control or target fat loss. You see, in order to see muscle definition, vascularity, or other aesthetic details in the body, you need to burn body fat. The problem is, body fat is burned across the entire body and cannot be targeted. If you do more b...
How to Create Accountability
November 15, 2018 09:30 - 34 minutes - 31.9 MBAccountability is nearly impossible to create all on your own. Unfortunately, this is the truth. People just cannot easily drive and motivate themselves without SOMETHING to feed that and help keep the focus intact. The best form of accountability is someone who's sole mission is to ensure your success. This person is a coach. Not a personal trainer, a fitness coach. The reason for this is because a fitness coach only cares about one thing: you getting results. Why? Two reasons typicall...
How NOT to Lose Momentum During the Holidays
November 13, 2018 09:30 - 38 minutes - 35.2 MBThe holidays are coming! Halloween is now behind us, but looking forward we've got Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Boxing Day, Omisoka, and more. Depending on your religion, ethnicity, etc, you may celebrate multiple of these. Then there's work parties, family parties, random get-togethers, and just wanting to get in the holiday spirit. What comes with all of this? Food! Food isn't a bad thing. And eating food with people you love is DEFINITELY not a bad thing. However, sometime...
What is Your Personal Legend?
November 08, 2018 09:30 - 22 minutes - 20.5 MBMy son is reading a book called The Alchemist. In this book, there's an amazing lesson to be learned about people's ambitions, goals, dreams, and ultimately, their legacy. In the book, they call it the Personal Legend. Do you ever visualize your big picture objectives and goals in life? What do your goals look like? Be specific. What are the details? Now, visualize them again and get VERY specific about what YOU look like in the scenario of having achieved your biggest goals in the world....
Weightlifting Cycles for Beginners
November 06, 2018 09:30 - 39 minutes - 35.8 MBAre you familiar with weightlifting cycles? Things like bulking, cutting, hypertrophy, deloading, maintenance, etc. These can be VERY confusing, especially for the beginner. In fact, the beginner, in a lot of cases shouldn't even be over-complicating their strategy with cycles. Cycles aren't necessarily an expert-only strategy, but they certainly are NOT for the ultra beginner. Inside this episode, these basic cycles are explained as well as some of the things that beginners should take i...
Playing It Safe = Dying a Slow Death
November 01, 2018 08:30 - 20 minutes - 19.2 MBDo you find yourself playing it safe a lot? Do you find yourself NOT challenging your own mind or body to do better for yourself and to reach your true potential? Do you find that you take the easy way out a lot, knowing that it's just more of the same and will only give you more of the same results you've been getting? This is called being comfortable. Comfort is a place that our brains like us to be in. The problem with comfort is that it keeps us stagnant. Yes, we're safe when we are ...
When to Use Fitness Supplements
October 30, 2018 08:30 - 33 minutes - 31.1 MBProtein protein, pre-workouts, branched chain amino acids, essential amino acids, fish oils, multivitamins, glutamine, carnitine, creatine, nitric oxide, thermogenic fat burners, BLAH BLAH BLAH! So many fitness supplements! How do you know what to take and when? Chances are, you're in a situation where you don't need 90% of the fitness supplements available! Most of them are so specific for unique situations. The majority of people reading this only need 2-3 of them, and to spend more ti...
Selfishness is Selflessness
October 25, 2018 08:30 - 20 minutes - 18.5 MBYou probably understand the difference between selfishness and selflessness. What you may not fully see, however, is how ONE of these things can directly lead to the other. Take selfishness for example... in fitness, there's a funny thing that happens when you prioritize health and fitness in your own life that leads to pure and utter selflessness. It works like this: The more selfish you are about your fitness and health, the more other people recognize that. As others recognize this, y...
7 Benefits of Achieving Fitness
October 23, 2018 08:30 - 28 minutes - 26 MBThere are MANY benefits to being fit, healthy and full of life. There are many benefits to experiencing a transformation. All of these benefits are typically physical as well as mental/emotional. But if you dive deeper you'll see some benefits that are adopted as a result of achieving a true fitness lifestyle. This means building fitness habits, routines and consistent actions. Some of these 7 benefits are: You automatically become part of the 8% of the population that achieves their goal...
Systemize Your Life
October 18, 2018 08:30 - 23 minutes - 21.1 MBWhat is Systemizing? What is the difference between systemizing, a routine, repetition, scheduling, consistency and building habits? They're all similar, but they are NOT all the same. They are all necessary for building long term fitness success BUT it's not worth overwhelming yourself - instead just focus on one at a time. In this case, we're focused on Systemizing. Systemizing is what people use to create repeated activities that provide a KNOWN, consistent result over and over again....
The Main Benefit of Creating a Routine
October 16, 2018 08:30 - 32 minutes - 29.8 MBHow are habits built? Is it something you just force yourself to do for 30 days and it's instantly ingrained in you? Is it something that can be taught in a weekend? Two things about GOOD habits that most people INTUITIVELY know, but it's usually not obvious: 1) You can't teach good habits to someone, they have to be built internally 2) Good habits have to be built out of actual desire to be better Habits are not built quickly, or easily. Likewise, habits are not broken quickly or easily...
3 POWERFUL Fitness Success Habits
October 11, 2018 08:30 - 35 minutes - 32.5 MBThere are many ways to build a set of hourly, daily or weekly habits to try and put yourself into a mode of consistent success and results. Likewise, there are many different habits that can help drive success. So how do you know which habits are WORTH building? Which habits will provide you consistent success? Mostly, which habits are PRACTICAL enough to actually help you achieve something? Inside this episode, I go over 3 POWERFUL fitness success habits that are small in time investme...
The 5 Core Values of Success
October 09, 2018 08:30 - 31 minutes - 28.6 MBWhat are core values? What does that even mean? I define core values as the governing principles that define a person on a day-in/day-out basis. When it comes to fitness, there are 5 core values that, if TRULY embraced, will make it impossible for them to fail in fitness. These 5 core values are: Responsibility Intensity and Energy Having a Giving Mentality Taking Action Commitment Inside this episode, I dive into each one of these and discuss what they all REALLY mean deep down and ...
How to NOT Allow Negative Influences Into Your Life
October 04, 2018 08:30 - 24 minutes - 22.6 MBOne of the hardest things about undergoing a fitness transformation and developing a health-based set of habits is dealing with the negativity that comes with it from other people. One thing that most people have in common is that they have a hard time dealing with negative influences. It can be incredibly difficult to create good healthy routines and habits when people are constantly pouring their negative energy and perspectives on you. In this episode, I talk about the easiest way to de...
Is It Shallow to Want to Look Great?
October 02, 2018 08:30 - 39 minutes - 36.3 MBIs it shallow to want to look great? Do you think YOU are shallow by wishing, or wanting, or desiring to look amazing? I feel a good comparison to this topic is the thought that it's shallow to want, or desire, or feel the NEED to have wealth and money. Both of these things (the desire to look great and the desire to have wealth) are very controversial, with people in both camps of "YES that is shallow thinking" and "NO that is NOT shallow thinking". Which camp are you in? In this epis...
Stress and Anxiety Cannot Break You
September 27, 2018 08:30 - 35 minutes - 32.9 MBStress and anxiety cannot break you. You will not be ruined as a result of excessive stress and anxiety. In this episode, I open up about some things that happened to my family and I over the past few years that would have crippled my efforts had it been years earlier when these things happened. Instead, I found a way to push through and it was through mindfulness techniques, journaling, and finding my inner peace that allowed me to press forward. This one is a little personal, I hope you ...
Optimizing Your Body for Fat Loss
September 25, 2018 08:30 - 36 minutes - 33.1 MBWhat is fat burning optimization? What does it take to burn calories? How do you get your body to burn more calories during the day when you AREN'T working out? You achieve this by increasing your resting metabolic rate (RMR)! How do you do this? Is it cardio? Is it weight lifting? Is it eating a certain way? Here's a teaser - it's not cardio :) Aside from the "HOW", here are some of the "WHY"' reasons to do this: 1) Cheat meals become something you can ACTUALLY do while staying fit 2)...

The Beginner's Guide to Fitness Pt. 3
September 18, 2018 08:30 - 27 minutes - 25.2 MBThis final piece of the Beginner's Guide to Fitness rounds out the 3-part series with an introduction to training concepts. Unfortunately, training can't be taught 100% in a single podcast. With 10+ years of fitness experience and a good portion of those helping train and transform other people, it's pretty apparent at this point that training is a something that needs to be understood at a core level beyond just how to do the movement. There are 5 topics covered in this episode relating ...
The Beginner's Guide to Fitness Pt. 2
September 13, 2018 08:30 - 38 minutes - 34.9 MBIn this episode, we continue our introduction to fitness for beginners by exploring the very basics of fitness-based nutrition. The items covered in this are likely not what you have seen/read/heard in other introductory offerings, but they are VALUABLE and POWERFUL. Gordon goes very in-depth on the following: 1) Intuitive Eating/Mindful Eating and WHY it doesn't work for people who are trying to undergo a transformation (even a small one) 2) Understanding basic function of calories in t...

The 5 Habits of People Who Are Successful in Fitness
September 06, 2018 08:30 - 29 minutes - 27.1 MBPeople who are successful in fitness all have a few things in common. Yes, they work out a lot (mostly). Yes, they care about their nutrition. Yes, most of them have a fitness coach helping them craft the perfect strategy. But, what most people don't know is that there are some other traits that set people who are successful in fitness APART from those who are unsuccessful. The list, which we dive DEEP into within this episode is: They are consistent in training AND nutrition They do...
Eating for Health vs. Eating for Weight Loss
September 04, 2018 08:30 - 32 minutes - 29.9 MBEating for health or eating for weight loss? Are they always necessarily the same thing? Nope! In this episode, Gordon dives into the difference between understanding macronutrition and micronutrition, their differences, and why they are NOT necessarily both relevant for weight loss. A lot of people think substituting their fast food and pizza with a ton of bananas, pineapple, whole grain bread, cage free eggs, almonds, etc, is going to lead directly to weight loss. While this is a good ...
Truly Understanding a Fitness Strategy
August 30, 2018 08:30 - 26 minutes - 23.9 MBStrategy means "a plan of action or policy designed to achieve a major or overall aim". Let that sink in. What is YOUR overall aim? In this episode, Gordon talks about how that overall aim is the most important piece to figure out and identify, well before you even start working out and planning out your nutrition. Without the proper goal specified, you will never get there through mindlessly training and eating what you believe to be appropriate. "Strategy" means to do things with inten...
The #1 Reason You Aren't Making Progress
August 28, 2018 08:30 - 36 minutes - 33.5 MBYou go to the gym several times a week. You try to eat right. Yet, you aren't making any progress and you don't know why. It's frustrating as hell. Inside this episode, Gordon dives into the #1 reason most people aren't making any progress with their fitness. Despite having major success over time in the past, there's a key element as to why that major success has now led you to a point where you are making little or no progress. Some key topics discussed: 1) Progressive Overloading 2...
The State of Your Body is The State of Your Life
August 23, 2018 08:30 - 29 minutes - 26.6 MBSimply put, the state of your body is directly reflected in the state of your life. Want to know the secret to "having it all" ? It's not winning the lottery. It's not finding the one partner to solve it all for you. It's not getting the dream job. The secret is this: Looking and feeling amazing, mentally and physically.

Are You Overthinking Fitness and Nutrition?
August 16, 2018 08:30 - 21 minutes - 19.7 MBThe title says it all - are you overthinking your fitness and nutrition? Do you hit a plateau and instead of trying to grind through it, you digest as much information by as many influencers as possible until you realize that you haven't actually done anything to fix the problem? Do you, or anyone you know, spend way too much time trying to learn and understand what the best superfood, diet, supplement, or organic product is? Or better yet, do you hit a workout wall and instead of working...
How Important is Post Workout Nutrition Anyway?
August 14, 2018 08:30 - 38 minutes - 35 MBDo you pay much attention to your post workout nutrition? Do you find yourself just eating whatever's available after your workout, or nothing at all? Lastly, have you ever wondered if it's even important to eat specific types of nutrients after your workout or if all of that is a myth? Let me answer that last one real quick: YES, post workout nutrition is critically important! This episode dives deep into each of these topics! We spend time getting into what happens in the body during y...
Fitness Is an Obligation
August 09, 2018 08:30 - 28 minutes - 26.5 MBFitness is an obligation, not an option. Prioritizing health and fitness is THE ultimate self-less move. How? Because the more selfish you are about prioritizing health, fitness, strength and vitality, you are creating a vibe that other people are going to pick up on. Not today, not in a month, but over time you will be creating an impact that cannot be undone. You are becoming a role model, an influence, and someone that others will aspire to be like. You will be the person that your...
3 Steps to Begin Intermittent Fasting
August 07, 2018 08:30 - 42 minutes - 39.2 MBYou've heard about intermittent fasting before, especially if you've listened to this podcast in the past. But have you ever wondered how you actually start intermittent fasting? Is it something you can just go all in on, all at once? To that I always tell people NO. It's something that is much easier to incorporate if done gradually over time. So how do you "gradually" incorporate intermittent fasting? I've broken it down into 3 steps, all of which are very simple, and in this podcast ...
Dealing with Toxic People In Your Life
August 02, 2018 08:30 - 25 minutes - 23 MBHow do you deal with toxic people in your life surrounding your fitness ambitions? What even ARE toxic people? A toxic person is someone in your life (friend, coworker, family member, etc) that realizes that you are making moves towards a fitness goal, and instead of being supportive and getting behind you, they pour all of their negative energy on you to try and hold you back. Ever notice sometimes how people do this? They give you a bunch of shit for trying to do good, healthy, positive...
Redefining Transformations with Dan Holguin
July 31, 2018 08:30 - 1 hour - 60.2 MBWhat does transformation mean to you? Do you need to lose a certain amount of weight in order to be considered someone who has gone through a transformation? If so, what is that number, 50 lbs? 75 lbs? 100 lbs? More? In this episode, I've brought on one of my favorite people in the health and fitness industry, Dan Holguin. Dan is a fitness and mindset coach and founder of the High Performance Health Academy, an online school dedicated to helping high performers master their bodies so the...
