  • Today marks 5 years since the passing of one of my greatest mentors, Charles Poliquin, aka the Strength Sensei.

    If you ever had the privilege of attending one of Strength Sensei's courses, you'd know that he firmly believed that the best way to learn, in any course, was to teach for 45 minutes, then do a "10 things I learned" review to reinforce many of the concepts discussed previously...

    Therefore in today's Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show it seems only fitting that as an homage to Charles, I share with you 10 things that I learned from him that are far more significant than strength or nutrition protocols.

    Thank you, Charles. You made an indefinable impact on my life and I only wish I could have shared this with you sooner.

    RIP coach.

  • In today's episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, I'm sharing an interview I did on Coach Krista Kuchenbecker's podcast. Krista is a registered nurse, personal trainer, and sports nutrition specialist who helps men and women ditch the diet mentality and feel healthy, strong, and confident, while still enjoying the foods they love.

    In our discussion, we talk at length about the benefits of strength training, particularly in conjunction with the weight loss process. We talk about the need to shift the narrative away from "How do I eat as little as possible and exercise as much as possible to burn as many calories as possible", to "How can I lose as much fat as possible while supporting as much lean muscle as possible".

    We also talk about the fundamental need to infuse more movement into our daily behaviors. As well as how to set realistic expectations around what the weight loss journey really looks like.

    In today's episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple show, I had the pleasure of chatting with my good friend Krystal Jackson. Krystal is a former professional volleyball play turned spiritual business coach who helps entrepreneurs create incredible results in both business and in life through a holistic self-knowledge system called Human Design.

    Now, you might be wondering, what in the heck is Human Design? Well, it combines astronomy, I Ching, Kabbalah, Myer's-Briggs, quantum physics, and the chakra system to create a personalized energy blueprint that gives you insight into how you're naturally wired to make decisions, interact with others, and navigate life.

    In this enlightening conversation, we really dive into Human Design and the different unique Energy Types. We talk about telltale signs we are out of alignment with our Energy Type and what we can do to fix it, as well as how to effectively leverage Human Design to revolutionize the way we live our lives.

    I learned so much about human psychology and about my own energy type in this conversation and I hope you can glean some pearls of wisdom to help you live a life that is most authentic to you. So without further ado, here's my conversation with Krystal.

  • In episode 3 of our Nutrition Series, I'm talking all about protein. When we’re trying to lose body fat, increase our energy, and/or gain muscle mass, protein plays a significant role, ESPECIALLY if we’re in a calorie deficit.

    In this podcast, I talk about why protein is the most important macronutrient, how much protein you should be eating, and how to realistically build out your meals to ensure that you're hitting your protein goals.

  • In today's episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, I had the pleasure of chatting with naturopathic doctors Alex Mayer and Matt Hernandez of Ethos Integrative Medicine.

    Dr. Alex specializes in women's hormones and medical aesthetics. Dr. Matt specializes in men's hormones and regenerative orthopedics.

    In this episode, we talk a lot about the fundamental gaps in conventional medicine and how functional medicine bridges those gaps by leveraging a holistic approach to identifying and addressing the root cause of disease.

    We talk about the differences between healthspan and longevity, the benefits of hormone replacement therapy for both women and men, as well as the role aesthetics play in helping people feel like the best version of themself from the outside in.

    We also talk about the main things people need to be cognizant of when it comes to improving quality of life, how impactful family history and genetics really are on longevity, declining testosterone levels in men and what they can do about it, and how the foundational pillars of health build and compound on each other to produce better results.

    Finally, we talk about the first steps that you can take right now if you're ready to hit your maximum potential.

    If you're experiencing low energy, having trouble sleeping, don't have the motivation to hit the gym, or generally just feel like crap despite having "normal" labs, then this episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show is for you.

    So without further ado. Here's my conversation with Drs. Alex and Matt.

  • In today's episode, I'm sharing an interview I did on The School of Atypical Insights podcast with my friend and host Tyler Wall.

    In our discussion we really take a deep dive into the art of coaching and mentorship and why I think that it is paramount to invest in your health in order to fast-track your way to long-term success.

    We also talk about the importance of autonomy and the flawed belief that we need to restrict, restrict, restrict in order to lose weight.

  • Calories really provide the foundation for how we drive weight loss.

    In episode 1 of our nutrition series, I explained the nutritional priming process that we use when clients first join our program to ensure that they get incredible results.

    In today's episode, I'm talking about pillar number 2: Calories. The truth is that calories really do matter most when we want to lose weight, build muscle, or maintain our current weight. But what most people don't realize is that they are far overconsuming them.

  • What are the logical steps you should be taking to facilitate weight loss?

    There is so much noise, confusion, and conflicting information in our industry when it comes to nutrition. We think that in order to be successful we need to restrict, restrict, restrict. But in reality, that is the LAST thing we need to do.

    In today's podcast, I'm going to share with you the exact process that we leverage to be able to help our clients get amazing results. This is the first episode of a series of podcasts where I will be breaking down our philosophy and our approach to how we tackle nutrition with our 1:1 coaching clients in a way that we've found to be the most successful.

    In this episode, I talk about:

    The first step we take when someone joins our Smart Nutrition Coaching ProgramWhy it's important for us to teach our clients how to effectively track their calorie intakeThe number one most powerful aspect of any coaching programWhy our clients are able to lose weight without us giving them a calorie limit, setting macros, or telling them what they can and can't eat

  • Today on the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show I'm excited to share an interview that I did on Phoenix Business RadioX.

    During our conversation, I talk about my personal and professional journey into the health and wellness space and what propelled me to start BSL Nutrition. I share our proven methodology for getting our clients incredible results in the most simplistic way possible. I also talk about the need to invest in our health, just as we do our finances. And finally, I share a roadmap for developing your own personal operating system to empower you to create remarkable and lasting change in your life.

    My hope is that this conversation not only helps you come away with a deeper understanding of the tools and skills necessary to improve your health, but also challenges you to take a hard look in the mirror and accept that if you’re not happy where you are, you have the power to make a change, and that change can start today.

  • Welcome to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show. I'm your host, Ben Brown, Owner of BSL Nutrition a one on one virtual nutrition and fitness company that helps you change your belief system around what it means to be healthy through our pure science, proven results process.

    Today, instead of our regular podcast episode, I'm excited to share an interview I did recently on The Dad Edge Podcast. During this conversation, we talk about why it's so important to invest in our health and why men need to give themselves permission to prioritize themselves in order to show up in a bigger and better way for their family, business, community, and future. We also talk about why we need to take an individualized approach to exercise and nutrition and figure out the various strategies, techniques, routines, and protocols that work best for us, as well as the importance of setting a powerful example for our children.

    I had such a great time being on this show and I hope that you find as much value in our conversation as I did.

  • Welcome to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show. I'm your host, Ben Brown, the owner of BSL Nutrition where we help you change your belief system around what it means to be healthy because we believe your health determines your freedom.

    And in today's podcast, I'm sharing an interview that I did a few years ago with my buddy and BSL Nutrition client Gabe Daley. Gabe joined our Smart Nutrition Coaching Program in 2020. He was overweight, out of shape, and battling poorly controlled type-2 diabetes. He lacked the foundational principles of good nutrition and realized that if he continued on this path, he wouldn't be able to show up the way he wanted for his family.

    Gabe had been working with us for just six months at the time of this interview and his results were nothing short of amazing. He dropped more than 20 lbs, lost 4 inches in his waist, went down two shirt sizes, and even had to buy smaller underwear. But the real icing on the cake was that by overhauling his nutrition and training he was able to get his blood sugar in check and stop taking two out of three of his diabetes medications.

    This is a story about resilience, discipline, willpower, and the incredible achievements you can make when you choose to invest in yourself, your family, and your future.

  • In today's Smart Nutrition Made Simple podcast, I thought it would be helpful to get our BSL Nutrition coaching team together to talk about boundary setting, particularly as it pertains to setting ourselves up for success during summer festivities and summer travel where we inevitably have less structure and more temptation and pressure to indulge in food and alcohol which can sabotage our weight loss efforts.

  • Welcome to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show. I'm your host, Ben Brown, owner of BSL Nutrition where we help you change your belief system around what it means to be healthy because we believe your health determines your freedom. In today's podcast, I chat with Bryan Krahn.

    Bryan is a highly respected personal trainer, fitness writer, blogger, and online physique coach who specializes in helping make ordinary bodies look incredible. He's written hundreds of articles for prominent fitness publications, including Men's Health, Ask Men, Muscle and Fitness, and Bodybuilding.com, and is the author of Men's Health: Muscle After 40.

    In this episode, we talk about the psychology of behavior change, particularly as it pertains to building muscle and losing body fat as we age. We delve into some of the biggest misconceptions around training after 40, the importance of infusing fitness and nutrition into our busy lifestyles, how to structure training programs for optimal results, and more.

    If you are a man in your 30s, 40s, 50s, or beyond who's ready to ditch the dad bod and get jacked instead, then this episode is for you.

  • I am always down for a challenge. And I always believe in walking the talk. And so I decided that for my 44th birthday, I want to make a concerted effort to get as lean as I possibly can.

    So what I want to do in this short episode is just walk you through what that process looks like for me. The things that I'm doing day in and day out. And really relate this to losing fat over 40 and how things change as we get older. And then I want to share some lessons that I've learned during this fat loss process that I think will be directly applicable to you.
