Are you stuck in the fat-burning zone but still not seeing results? Many people think burning fat during exercise equals fat loss, but the truth is more complex.
In today’s episode, we’ll discuss the difference between fat burning and fat loss—and why understanding this can transform your fitness journey. We’ll debunk the common myth that staying in a low-intensity "fat-burning zone" is the best way to lose fat. You’ll understand why your body burning fat doesn’t necessarily translate into fat loss.
We’ll also discuss how your body uses calories for energy, how to track your caloric intake and burn, and the importance of quality nutrition in maintaining a calorie deficit. I also highlight the dangers of restrictive diets and share efficient ways to burn calories throughout the day.
I address the widespread myth of targeting belly fat and offer a comprehensive fat-loss approach, combined with regular monitoring of body composition and overall progress, which is far more effective than belly fat exercises.
So, whether you’re struggling with stubborn belly fat or looking to kickstart your fat-loss journey, this episode is packed with actionable insights that will help you create a sustainable daily routine for lasting fat loss. Tune in to learn how to optimize your workouts, nutrition, and lifestyle for better results.

In 2021, over 38 million Americans (11.6% of the population) had diabetes, mostly type 2, while 97.6 million adults had prediabetes, a precursor to type 2 diabetes. Although millions of new cases are diagnosed yearly, particularly in those over 45, the condition is often reversible with lifestyle changes.
In today’s episode, we’ll talk about the severe health risks associated with untreated diabetes and the need not only to understand and manage diabetes but also to take proactive steps to reverse it by adopting healthier habits. I’ll share my journey of helping my father control the condition, which has led to significant improvements in blood sugar levels.
Additionally, we’ll discuss three common dietary mistakes many people with diabetes make and the importance of a healthy lifestyle, including regular exercise, proper nutrition, stress management, and sufficient sleep, in controlling blood sugar levels.
If you or someone you know is dealing with type 2 diabetes, listen to the episode and check out our diabetes program to learn how you can potentially reverse diabetes rather than just manage it.

The Lancet Commission on Prostate Cancer projects that annual global cases will double from 1.4 million in 2020 to 2.9 million by 2040. Additionally, annual deaths from prostate cancer are projected to increase by 85%—from 375,000 in 2020 to nearly 700,000 by 2040.
These statistics are part of the reason why I did a coaching call in the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood specifically addressing prostate cancer. Today's podcast episode is based on that coaching call. I’ll share my experience and the reasons for getting a PSA test.
We’ll talk about the importance of early detection, regular PSA testing, and how to interpret PSA levels. I’ll also introduce you to the Prostate Power Program, which I co-developed with fitness icon Clark Bartram to help men navigate prostate health challenges.
In addition, I mention seven foods beneficial for prostate health and tips for incorporating these foods into your daily diet.
Given the inevitable global surge in prostate cancer for men in their 50s, 60s, and 70s, you need to check your prostate health now. Listen to the episode to learn how to implement proactive measures and reduce your risk of prostate cancer.

Studies have shown that controlled breathing strengthens the respiratory muscles and increases lung capacity. Deep breathing improves cognitive functions and testosterone levels, which decline as men age. Breathwork has additional physiological and mental benefits that we will discuss in this episode.
I’ll share my experience with breathwork, including how power breathing techniques helped me recover from cryptogenic organizing pneumonia that had me on a deathbed. I’ll explain the difference between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems and how breathwork can help activate the body's natural parasympathetic response.
We’ll focus on diaphragmatic and deep breathing techniques and their benefits. I will also provide practical tips on incorporating these breathing techniques into your daily routine. However, the best way to learn and implement breathwork properly is through guided breathing sessions.

Stem cell therapy has multiple benefits for older men, including regenerating damaged tissues, anti-aging, joint pain relief, and inflammation reduction.

Regular bodyweight movements are a great start to your fitness journey. However, as you grow older, you need integrated exercises that enable you to move in different angles and planes, build muscle, improve flexibility, and build strength without injuries.
Functional training with resistance bands helps you achieve these fitness goals and much more. In this week’s episode, I'll explain the core advantages of using resistance bands, focusing on their variable resistance, which effectively engages muscles throughout the entire range of motion.
You'll learn why bands are an excellent tool for building muscle and core stability, improving joint health, and preventing injuries. Their portability also makes them perfect for workouts anywhere, anytime.
We'll explore practical applications of resistance bands as I show you how to easily integrate band training into various workout routines for a versatile and efficient way to train multiple muscle groups and improve functional strength.
I'll also introduce you to the Alpha Band Warrior FIT program, a comprehensive program that offers structured 28-day routines and focuses on fundamental movement patterns. It is designed to help you maximize the benefits of resistance bands and achieve your fitness goals.

Most of us understand that nutrition is a critical pillar of health and wellness. But sometimes, despite our efforts to eat a balanced diet daily, we still have dietary deficiencies, partly because food quality has changed over the years.
Nutritional supplements help us compensate for the deficiencies and improve our overall health. So, today, I'm going to take you behind the scenes of one of our coaching calls, where I talked about the top 10 to 15 supplements for men over 40, why you need them, and how to use them for the best results.
We talked about the role of supplements like creatine, whey protein, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamin D3 and K2, magnesium, zinc, HMB, probiotics, CoQ10, Vitamin B12, ashwagandha, and saw palmetto in combating age-related muscle loss, promoting gut health, supporting hormonal balance, boosting testosterone, and improving mental, prostate, and overall health.
I also emphasized the importance of sleep in maintaining health and suggested a six-week challenge to enhance sleep quality.
Some of the recommended supplements are available at Funk Supplements Shop. Remember to use the code “Podcast15” to get a 15% discount on your order.
