Get ready listeners for a most unusual and heavy and unique show with my old friend Tom Hodge!
Tom is an endurance adventurer living an interesting dream life of enjoyable but extensive endurance exercise every day, traveling the globe for major events, mixing with top athletes and watching them perform, and being on this amazing journey that he's going to tell you about in this episode. You will hear about his recent global odyssey and how it turned into a fantastic exploration of how childhood trauma affects us all our whole lives, how we use distraction, endurance, suffering, and drinking to avoid facing things and also how Tom hit rock bottom and then abruptly turned everything around by staring at a wall.
You will hear Mark Sissonâs name brought up often in the story and learn about the special relationship Tom and Mark share and how Mark was the only person who âsaw through everything.â I think this show will be really valuable for everyone to reflect on how we carry stuff our whole lives and the benefits of waking up and doing honest self-assessment. As my former podcast guest Bruce Lipton says, our subconscious programming occurs from age 0-7 and then we operate from our subconscious 95% of the time, for the rest of our lives! Listen as Tom goes deep and gets vulnerable, incredibly honest, and reflective as he talks about his wild ride. Itâs a pretty colorful showâyou will hear about how he went from UCLA student to being a highly paid model in Japan after getting randomly discoveredâa career that took him around the world for 25 years. You will learn why Tom eventually rejected his victim mentality, reconciled his childhood issues with gratitude, self-exploration (without any outside help), and turned things around to where he stands today.
Itâs wild, it's mind blowing, and you are going to love this show, especially if youâre a younger listener and dreaming of a career and trying to figure out which career path to take. Regardless of age or where youâre at in your life, there are so many valuable lessons to take away from this show, especially the importance of self-exploration and honesty and avoiding our collective penchant for distraction every second of every day so we donât have to face things that might unlock a path to a more fulfilling and grateful life.
TIMESTAMPS:
Psychological experts today talk about how our childhood programming is something we play out every day. [01:08]
It shouldnât matter if you are first or last. It is what you get out of the activity itself. [06:12]
How does one define failure? How can one deal with insecurities? [07:52]
Childhood programming is being studied more and more as for its effects on our current personhood. [15:42]
Usually when are drinking excessive alcohol, you are trying to numb some childhood trauma. [17:40]
Tom had to leave his dysfunctional family and try to make it on his own. [20:56]
Because of Tomâs dyslexia, he had difficulty reading. He bought a book to read, determined to master that skill. At the same time, he committed to exercise, all this to avoid alcohol. [30:32]
Addiction to exercise can be toxic. [43:58]
If your grip strength is weak, it is directly correlated with your predicted lifespan.
The greatest currency one can have is time. [01:00:32]
How does one learn to deal with this subject of childhood trauma? [01:07:42]
There is much more distractibility in todayâs world. Much more stress than before advanced technology. [01:12:26]

This is an important show to help you be the best you can be throughout life, instead of following the typical path of accelerated aging and hormone decline driven by adverse lifestyle practices.
Besides doing regular blood tests for male sex hormone panels, there is an obvious scoreboard to monitor in the form of visceral fat. Fighting the spare tire battle is the essence of aging gracefully, as visceral fat accumulation begets the accumulation of more fat and suppressed hormones.
The tips outlined in this episode are simple, doable, sustainable and inexpensiveâI will cover fitness (emphasizing sprinting and lower body strength training), diet (emphasizing protein and ditching processed foods), some talk about supplements, healthy romantic relationship dynamics, and a bit of proven biohacking such as red light therapy and therapeutic cold exposure.
TIMESTAMPS:
How about some lifestyle tips for natural testosterone optimization? [00:54]
When you want to think about hormone optimization, look first at sprinting. [04:18]
You have to watch out for a pattern of overly stressful workouts. [07:29]
The proper way to sprint is to give a near maximum effort of 92 to 95% and also take good recovery period. [09:27]
Brad talks about how he does his own sprint workouts. A six to one ratio recovery to work interval is the goal. [14:19]
Strength training involves emphasis on correct form, precise technique, and keeping your core stabilized. [21:09]
Monitor your testosterone level for your overall level of energy, vitality and anti-aging longevity status. [31:19]
When looking at your diet, the foremost objective is to consume sufficient protein. [34:27]
Vegans and vegetarians need to be very careful in your efforts to consume sufficient protein. [36:35]
People who engage in intermittent fasting need to be concerned about getting sufficient protein. [39:52]
As we age, our protein synthesis diminishes our ability to digest and assimilate and use protein as the building blocks for muscle and all other organs. [41:47]
There have always been arguments about the macronutrients, fat and carbohydrate, but the bottom line if you eliminate the nutrient deficient foods, you are on the right track. [42:52]
A spare tire is a sign of serious health disturbance. [46:48]
Whey protein, and creatine are the very best, cleanest, freshest natural sources of protein. [51:17]
There are many supplements that claim to boost your energy, strength, build muscle and increase libido. [57:56]
There are hormonal underpinnings that influence relationship dynamics. [59:45]
Red light therapy can also boost your testosterone production. [01:04:08]
There are some things to avoid that tank your testosterone. Stay away from plastics. [01:06:50]
A sedentary lifestyle promotes chronic inflammation. Keep moving. [01:08:44]

If you want some career advice, this is the episode for you!
While the topic of this show will be particularly relevant for younger listeners, listeners of all ages can relate to struggling with maintaining a positive attitude and hopeful prospects about the future. This episode was inspired by a young friend of mine who has just finished schooling and is looking to embark on a career, but feeling stressed about the opportunities, challenges, financial stresses-loansâthe usual suspects.
A relatable issue for most people, and more than ever these days as the younger generation faces much difficulty with landing jobs and other challenging external issues (such as the rising cost of living in urban areas and housing prices). It can be immensely challenging to find time to even enjoy your free time when you have a life burden like this hanging over your head, and when is it going to change? Not likely anytime soon, so in this episode, I offer three pieces of advice I shared with my friend for acting most effectively during challenging times and for accomplishing your career goals.
You will learn how to âbe like a machine,â what it means to pursue your inspired purpose, the one question to ask yourself any time you experience anxiety, stress, or fear, my thoughts on asking others for help, and more advice to help you navigate your pursuit of your goals.
TIMESTAMPS:
It is difficult these days for young people to find their way in a career path. [00:49]
It is hard to maintain a positive attitude and focus at this time in your young life. You have to be like a machine. [02:50]
Learn to deal with setbacks and misfortunes that will come your way and keep going. Pursue your inspired purpose. [10:16]
Look at your progress as stepping stones. [15:22]
Sometimes your inspired purpose does not bring financial success. [20:58]
Ask yourself what should I be doing right now? When you experience fear and anxiety, redirect your focus to your values. [28:05]
If you tend to carry around your worries, fears and anxieties, instead of enjoying your life, realize that this is a game you play with yourself so you can save face. [32:42]
Reach out for help in a polite and considerate way and make sure you have something to offer. [35:55]

A listener asked me about what I think about the resetsâŠ..fasting, keto, carbs, hormetic stressors, and vegan propaganda..
My knee-jerk reply was that we all need to step back and focus on the big picture. It's also important to never get frustrated, and to work hard to stay open minded and think critically instead of succumbing to the marketing hype and the controversy and confusion in the health game.
It might be a great strategy to focus on self-experimentation. Be willing to experiment, measure results, and evaluate for future modification and refinement. I get into some of the Blue Zones talking points that can be described as propaganda and flat-out unsubstantiated (plant-based promotes longevity!), versus the most valuable takeaways for happiness and longevity (move more!)
If you hear anyone spouting maxims like this, turn and run screaming in the opposite direction: "A cup of beans a day could add two to three years to your life.â Here's an awesome Blue Zones insight: "They're driven by life's meaning and purpose. Theyâre investing in family, keeping their minds engaged and thereâs no existential stress of being worthless in life like so many Americans."
Enjoy the show and check in with me at [email protected]
TIMESTAMPS:
There is much controversy and confusion in the progressive health scene about how to pursue longevity. [00:48]
It takes a concerted effort to maintain our open-mindedness and our ability to think critically. [02:44]
Human life expectancy has fluctuated in the early years and now, with all the medical improvements, it has gone up, however, the USA is not rated very highly compared to other countries. [07:49]
When in doubt, do self-experimentation rather than relying on some information that is out there like the Blue Zone. The plant-based diet has been attacked by people in the know. [12:05]
A good goal is you should have around one gram of protein per pound of your ideal body weight. [19:58]
What about fasting, time-restricted feeding and calories restriction in pursuit of longevity? [21:49]
Brad is pretty sure he does not want to take any prescription medication unless absolutely necessary. He wants his body to work naturally. [27:08]

It is time for more Katy Bowman!
Katy is one of my favorite educators in the health and fitness scene and her Nutritious Movement movement is so awesome and has such a great following (check out her Instagram to see her thoughtful commentary and the beautiful, Earth-based lifestyle she is living out there on the Olympic Peninsula of Washington).
This is a very educational episode as Katy illustrates the importance of a movement-oriented lifestyle separate and distinct from oneâs fitness regimenâso integrating movement into your day, throughout the day, and not just for one isolated block of time. Katy is also a book writing machine with a new book, My Perfect Movement Plan: The Move Your DNA All Day Workbook.
This is an unusual book because it is formatted like a journal, asking you to participate in the process and further connect with the message.
Instead of a simple Q&A about her book, this episode is a thoughtful conversation about the impact movement and fitness can have on the human body. You will learn why athletic training can often be counterproductive to health, and how to integrate movement into your daily life in a graceful and sustainable way. Itâs really not a huge ask and it has a massively beneficial impact on your health because instead of trying to get your butt to the gym and get in shape, itâs more about being mindful of your environment and your surroundings, and utilizing Katyâs quick, actionable tips so you can enjoy a more movement oriented lifestyle.
Katy Bowman, M.S. is a biomechanist, bestselling author, and founder of Nutritious Movement. She has written many books on the importance of a diverse movement diet including Move Your DNA, Rethink Your Position, Whole Body Barefoot, and her latest My Perfect Movement Plan: The Move Your DNA All Day Workbook. Follow her on Instagram @NutritiousMovement and enjoy listening to this practical and informative episode with Katy.
TIMESTAMPS:
How does one integrate movement into daily life? Even athletes need to get way better at having a more movement-oriented lifestyle. [00:51]
Most casual endurance athletes are overdoing it to the extreme excess and the extreme detriment to their overall general health. [7:04]
Cardio, strength, and flexibility should all be packaged together. [12:03]
By watching the Paralympics, people will be inspired to improve their exercise habits. [13:34]
People easily lose motivation like when they used COVID as an excuse of why they got out of shape. [18:32]
Sometimes we are strong in only one narrow area of fitness rather than all around fitness. What movements are functional for an average human? [21:34]
It really is quite easy to integrate movement into your lifestyle. Do squats in line at the taco truck, anyone? [27:48]
The fitness industry is pervasive. You are told you must buy exercise equipment and dietary supplements when maybe you can get what you need at home. [29:30]
Psychologists are exploring the reasons or excuses people have for not being more active. [33:10]
There seems to be a focus on athleticism rather than just recognize movement as important. [36:43]
Living in the digital age, we find ourselves constantly entertained and connected which compromises movement. {48:19]
Life is busy. It is so important to walk, walk, walk. [57:47]

My recent focus sprinting and high jumping in masters track & field competition entails a completely different approach to training than the endurance protocol and endurance mindset.
My former podcast guest Cynthia Monteleone (@fastover40 on Instagram) has been a big help recently for me to continue to evolve my approach and my mindset so I can thrive in track & field. In short, I've been applying endurance training principles to my high intensity peak performance goals and it's been hampering my performance and recovery. This is where you have to make the crucial shift in mindset to prioritize high intensity training.
I reached out to Cynthia for more guidance because I'm getting annoyed at my frequent minor injuries that linger for too long. Immediately it became clear that I'm unwittingly trying to train disparate energy systems and it's too much for my body to handle. In this show, I'll describe how I'm evolving from "easy/recovery" days in the endurance paradigm to proper rest days for a sprinter/jumper. Remember, the aerobic system responds well to low intensity, consistency and volume. The anaerobic system responds well to high intensity, short duration, extensive rest, and low volume.
I've also learned in recent years that the more specific and lofty your goals become, the more you have to narrow your focus. I can't pursue the disparate goals of Speedgolf and sprinting/jumping. Listen to my great show with Cynthia to learn more about her innovative approach and services at Mam808.org
This show will also inspire you to perhaps shift from an excessive emphasis on cardio/endurance training in favor of doing high intensity exercise and enjoying the best benefits for fat loss and longevity.
TIMESTAMPS:
Brad is taking days off. Itâs a new approach to his training. Heâs found he doesnât take enough rest and recovery days. [00:54]
We see most fitness enthusiasts are way heavily weighted to the cardio side and usually highly deficient on the explosive high intensity side. [05:41]
Around 50% of regular runners are injured every year from a flawed approach that is characterized by running at a pace that is too strenuous. [09:10]
You are encouraged to do harder, shorter duration but really explosive workouts. [11:24

Hey listeners, it's time for the Light Show with Scott Chaverri, founder of Mito Red Light!
He is doing some amazing work with his therapeutic red light exposure and the familiar panels that you can find on mitoredlight.com, the most powerful and the most affordable red light panels on the market. But, he's also an inventor at heart who loves to spend his time tinkering with all kinds of different technology. And at the end of the show, you're gonna hear about some of his dreams and big picture ideas that are really fascinatingâone of them has to do with how unhealthy our typical sources of indoor light are and the popularity of energy efficient LED lights, which are constantly flickering (120 times per second)âsomething that is not good for the brain. But as you will hear, Scott is actually working on a solution for that, and it could change the planet.
In this episode you will learn about the wonderful story of how red light therapy can improve your health and the ways it improves your mitochondrial function will finally be explained in detail so you can really understand all the science and the research behind this and why red light panels work. You will hear some great takeaways from this show, such as why 10 minutes is the ideal exposure time and why more is not better with your red light practice. It was so interesting to hear Scott explain the whys behind the health practice of therapeutic red light exposureâa health practice I have been committed to for the past five years now. Every day, I devotedly stand in front of my panel, exposing my eyeballs and other important balls to the red lights for the optimal duration.
If you want to know the science behind why I do this and why this works so efficiently, you will love listening to this informative show with Scott.
TIMESTAMPS:
Scott Chaverri is here to talk about therapeutic red light exposure. Many of the indoor lights we have are not healthy. [00:53]
Scott started on this journey of exploring the scientific benefits of red light therapy when he himself was dealing with health problems. [03:15]
Red light therapy helps with testosterone. [07:18]
How does red light therapy benefit sleep? [10:32]
So the safest and most beneficial parts of that UV spectrum are helping with mitochondrial function, cell repair, removal of waste products, that kind of thing. [14:12]
If you're worried about photoaging your skin and you don't want to be in direct sunlight, go to a green space, sit in the shade. [20:59]
Do we always need to wear sunglasses? [26:17]
Spending too much time in the sun is counterproductive. How is red light therapy different? [30:47]
So many people tend to trade their health for dollars. [36:11]
Besides red light therapy, what else is going on in this area? [40:06]
Some people might put green tea bags on their crowâs feet area for part of the red light therapy. Sometimes it helps with hair growth. [42:53]
How does a hydrogen water bottle work? [48:26]
The LED lights that we are exposed to so much have some drawbacks. [52:28]

I respond to some great comments from listeners in this Q&A show!
We are starting off with John Grayâs famous essential male and female relationship assignments, what supplements I am taking (and not taking) these days, and how protein intake warnings have been refuted (10 eggs a day is okay!).
I also answer a question about the minimalist shoe fadâis it dead, or is barefoot the way to go? You will learn how elevated, cushioned shoes enable poor form and are the driving cause of injuries and finally, what the optimal duration for high impact and for low impact sprinting is.
TIMESTAMPS:
The first question Brad is answering is from Lily who comments on the podcast with John Gray regarding respecting the biological and hormonal underpinnings in a relationship. [01:42]
This question asks about which organ supplementation should be avoided. [04:06]
Sugar is not your enemy. Processed foods are. We want a nutrient-dense diet. [06:00]
In the podcast with Jay Feldman, it is mentioned that Andrew is consuming 100 eggs every day. The reader is questioning that. [12:46]
The next writer is challenging the five-toed shoe benefits. You have to transition carefully. Running shoes are not as safe as we have been told. [25:25]
Novice joggers have the inclination to heel strike and overstride for an assortment of reasons beyond wearing a cushion shoe. [35:04]
In referring to Bradâs ideal of 20 second maximum when sprinting, the questioner asks, âshould I sprint for longer if I have excess body fat and need to burn more calories?â And the answer is absolutely not. [41:55]
Patricia is asking about the amount of time one should use HIIT. [48:25]

Formerly anonymous Arizona high school running coach Mike Scannell has become a sensation in the American distance running community with the amazing success of his runner Grant Fisher, the undisputed king of American long distance running!
Grant had a sensational Paris Olympic Games, winning bronze medals in the 5,000 and 10,000 meters. These are events where only a handful of Americans have ever won Olympic medals, ever! Mike is an old friend, a former elite collegiate runner, and a fellow competitor on the professional duathlon circuit, and it was amazing to catch up with him and detail the amazing Olympic journey!
The backstory of Grant and Mike is pretty amazing. Mike coached Grant in high school in Michigan, where he became one of only eight high schoolers ever to break four minutes in the mile. Grant then headed off to a great NCAA career in Stanford and a pro career with the elite Bowerman Track Club team in Oregon. In a surprise mid-career shift, Grant decided to go about it his own way. He moved to Park City, UT for altitude training, and phoned up his old high school coach looking for guidance. This is less than a year before the Olympics as America's top distance runner! In this show, Mike will discuss the risks and pressures elite athletes face (and their coaches!) You'll be taken behind the scenes for the Paris Games and the extraordinary measures Grant and Mike took to ensure he could focus and succeed.
You'll love the story of how Grant and Mike were locked inside the Olympic stadium late at night after winning his 10,000 meter bronze. You'll learn about Mike's evolved approach where he is solely focused on serving the athlete and avoids getting the all-too-common coaching ego into the mix. You'll learn about today's popular scientific approach to endurance training centered upon measuring and controlling blood lactate levels during workouts, and why many runners "ruin their workouts" with a less disciplined approach. You'll learn the benefits of altitude training, and how Grant's mindset and extensive rehearsals helped him execute awesome strategy at both Olympic races.
At the end, Mike provides some profound insights for young runners and their parents about the importance of being motivated naturally and intrinsically. You'll also learn why, a couple decades ago, crime didn't pay in Tucson, AZ, where you might have gotten into a foot pursuit with someone who would most definitely outlast you...I've known and studied lots of coaches over the years, and I don't think you'll find a more healthy and evolved disposition than that embodied by Mike. No wonder Grant phoned him up out of the blue and asked for help going and getting some Olympic medals! Enjoy the show. Young runners can get a daily tip of inspiration by following Mike on X @realironmike
TIMESTAMPS:
We take a behind-the-scenes look at what goes on with Olympic athletes and their coaches. [00:53]
Coaching Grant Fisher in the Olympics, Mike is able to share his expertise. [06:06]
What we commonly see these days are high profile teams with big sponsors. Itâs a different approach from what Mike and Grant have done. [07:54]
How did Mikeâs own experiences with coaches help him to get this particular disposition? [13:43]
With the scientific approach, the thing the runner can do is check blood lactate. [16:20]
Besides checking blook lactate, Mike checks heart rate, hematocrit and hemoglobin and other things. [19:38]
When training at altitude or in the heat of Arizona, you have to cut the tempos why back. [21:19]
It is very easy to ruin a workout by using that competitive intensity to work really hard. [23:40]
What kind of volume and load can you put on the runner so that he absorbs the training and is ready for the next session? [27:33]
You can have all the tech toys in the world but you have to listen to it! [29:48]
When you make a detailed plan for the athlete, how often to you deviate from that plan? [31:17]
Grant takes good care of himself. He takes care of sleep, massage, his food at home. [39:58]
How do they manage the constant risk of overuse injuries? [41:05]
In taking on the job to coach Grant Fisher, did you feel nervous about the whole USA expecting some medals? [45:36]
What was his experience in Paris? What was the race strategy? [50:00]
Living and training at altitude helps your body build additional red blood cells, but when you come down to sea level, you lose some of the benefits. [59:34]
When running in the prelim, all you need is to be in the eight finalists. [01:04:13]
Staying in the Olympic Village with the other athletes can be fine for social interactions, however, when you have big important events to still compete in, being around rowdy parties doesnât work. [01:05:53]
You have to plan on when you need to go faster when you are in the big race. [01:09:15]
There is no reason for Grant Fisher to take the lead in the Olympics first 4,000 meters. [01:12:46]
Mikeâs coaching method involves only when the athlete himself asks for coaching, not if the parent asks. [01:21:50]
High school kids donât know what they canât do so please donât tell them. [01:25:55]

My friend sent me a recent DEXA scan report and was distraught about his body composition score.
This is a lifelong athleteâexcuse meâsuper-athlete, who has performed at the highest level in his sport for decades. After being sidelined by surgery, and perhaps some less scrutinized dietary choices, he drifted outside his familiar performance zone into the softy zone.
If we all consistently deployed our vast knowledge to our lifestyle habits, we would all be kicking ass all the time. Thatâs not so easy, so we are often compelled to try and correct course. Sometimes, driven, focused, highly competitive types will get the urge to take desperate measures: âThatâs it! Itâs time for exhaustive workouts and prolonged fasting!â Itâs also becoming a popular theme where âcalorie deficitâ is the end-all. This insight might be true in a vacuum, but we have to think about real-life variables, such as hormone optimization (especially for women), lifestyle factors including access to nutritious foods, psychological issues relating to food, the difficulty is accurately counting calories burned, the difficulty in accurately assessing what your body does with ingested calories, and so forth.
If you want to lose excess body fat, know that while it is a complex challenge, it is actually completely possible to accomplish if you follow a sensible approach. In this episode, you will hear the five tips I suggested to my friend to get things headed in the right direction. If you or someone you know wants to lose weight, this show will put you on the right track and help you lose excess body fat in a healthy way.
TIMESTAMPS:
What are we to do when we drift from being a solidly built athlete into the softy zone? [00:47]
First, we have to acknowledge that we probably havenât been using all the knowledge we have about good nutrition. [01:56]
Extreme diet restriction and grueling exercise habits are not the best way to go. [03:08]
We want to have a healthy psychological relationship with food. [05:45]
We need to pay special attention to visceral fat accumulation. [07:23]
One thing to try is fasting. This gets you away from access to calories for a certain period of time. [10:26]
You can try restricting certain macronutrients. And eliminate processed foods. [15:17]
If you overconsume processed sugar, you will store it as fat. However, sugar itself is burned for energy. [18:00]
Eliminate overly stressful exercise patterns. [19:23]
To really get the best benefits for reducing excess body fat and for overall fitness breakthroughs, you must introduce brief, explosive, high intensity strength workouts and sprint workouts. [23:23]

Did you know that defensiveness not only causes a cortisol spike, but also releases the powerful enzyme aromatase, and that has an effect on testosterone?
In this show, weâre hearing some more reflections from John Grayâone of my favorite podcast guests ever who always brings the most profound insightsâabout how to avoid breaking up and instead, reconnect with your partner. You will learn the most common causes that lead to breakups, why marriage statistics are not reliable, what to do when your partner is not happy, and why sexual desire is our strongest drive and of top importance in our relationship. You will also hear great, effective tips for making communication easier with your partner, like how John advises women to âexpress everything as a preferenceâ since most men just want to be your hero, and as John explains, we have to realize that we are most vulnerable with people we are closest to and most humans donât like criticism in general. You will also learn what phrase is usually the manâs signal to cease the talking (which, if it continues, will cause the man to get defensiveâand this poses problems as it causes a cortisol spike which releases aromatase, and this causes testosterone to convert to estrogen!).
If you are single or in a relationship, you donât want to miss this showâyou will learn so much that will positively affect your relationships, like why you should never try to change the other person, and why you should never make continued requests or demands, why John says to never speak when you have a negative emotional charge (as a man, but this is good advice for all), and more!
TIMESTAMPS:
Some of the major causes of relationship breakups are suppressed emotions and communication problems. [00:49]
Keep yourself happy. Do not depend on your partner to make you happy. [03:39]
Ideally, the man wants to feel like the hero, the guy who can come through for the partner and family. [04:55]
It works better when women express things as a preference and compliment your partner for doing things. [08:53]
It is manâs basic nature to solve problems so if you just want him to listen, you need to say that. [09:47]
If a man says, âI hear you,â that is the signal for the woman to stop talking. [10:45]
Donât try to change the other person. Many women are unaware of how controlling they are. [15:33]
Men: never speak with a negative emotional charge and learn how to make a graceful exit. [19:51]
Men can take the time away to reflect on their contribution and see what triggers there are. [21:41]
Learn to validate the womenâs challenges. [29:46]
What techniques can the male learn to deal with emotional disturbances or relationship conflict? Number one: live your life so you donât have to say âIâm sorryâ so often. [30:43]
You donât have to get defensive, men. Execute the desired behavior. It doesnât mean you are caving in. [32:32]
You must understand relationships as a 80-20 proposition. [36:52]
The number one most attractive thing a partner can do is watching your partner excel from a distance. [39:39]
Remind yourself there are times when itâs not your problem to solve, but you can be supportive. [41:00]
Sex spikes testosterone. [42:42]

Welcome back to Bradâs Olympic Track & Field wrap up!
I hope you enjoyed the lengthy presentation summarizing the menâs events, and now itâs time for a show dedicated to the awesome performances of the females on the track and the field for the Paris 2024 Olympics. In the first show, I gave you a little bit of an overview about my fascination with Olympic Track & Field and I also mentioned something I talk about more in this episode, which is how great it is to see a sport where the males and females are equally represented in the categories of stardom and coverageâunlike some other sports that tend to exist in the shadow of the menâs games (like basketball).
If you want to hear a comprehensive review of this yearâs Olympic Womenâs Track & Field Competition, this is the episode for you.
TIMESTAMPS:
This podcast looks at the womenâs performances in the Paris Olympics from Bradâs perspective. [00:49]
It is frustrating when the commentators talk about expectations of the outcomes of the races. [05:49]
The 400 was a fantastic race. Marileidy Paulino, from the Dominican Republic, had one of the fastest runs of all times. [08:06]
Depending on the race distance, the athlete learns a certain race pattern. [11:06]
Many of the athletes commented that the construction of the track and the super spikes worn in Paris made a difference. [15:38]
In some countries, if you are a number one world ranked athlete, you have a pass to be selected for your event before the Olympic trials. [18:40]
Faith Kipyegon reigned for the third consecutive gold medal. Jessica Hull has been steadily taking down her time. [22:00]
As usual the doping suspicions are always around. Now days these athletes are subject to random unannounced year-round drug testing for the officials. [24:32]
Faith Kipyegon and Beatrice Chebet had an exciting finish. Sifan Hassan had an incredible race, went home, rested and came back to run in the marathon as well. [29:47]
The 100-meter hurdles is always a very exciting race most often finishing in a photo finish. Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone got the worldâs record in the 400-meter hurdles. [35:27]
The Steeplechase is dominated by the Africans on both male and female sides. The four by four brought the US team more medals. [44:12]
The high jump saw records broken as expected. Yaroslava Mahuchikh from Ukraine was very proud to represent her country. [48:01]
Pole vaulting found the two winners who shared the gold in the world championships meet head to head again, with Kennedy clearing the high bar this time. It is so great to see. [49:53]
Long jumper Tara Davis Woodall from USA came away with the gold. Thea Lafond from Dominca won the gold in the triple jump.[50:29]
Shot put, unfortunately we saw the very popular Chase Ealey get knocked out in the qualifying. US did get gold in the discus with Valerie Alman defending her world championship. [51:47]
In the hammer throw, Cameron Rogers from Canada first, And the javelin was won by Kitaguchi from Japan. [52:55]
In the Heptathlon, Shari Hawkins made her Olympic debut at age 33 but, unfortunately, she got knocked out of the competition. Belgiumâs Nafissatou Thiam went home with the gold. [53:27]
Mixed relay is a new event in the Olympics. The teams can choose what order they wanted to run their athletes in right when they first come out. [55:04]

I thought I would do a fun, different style showâBradâs Olympic Track & Field summary wrap up show!
Track is my passion and in this episode, I go over some of the highlights, great performances, and fun backstories from this year's Olympic Men's Track & Field Competition.
Enjoy the show!
TIMESTAMPS:
The import thing is not to win but to take part in the Olympics. [04:23]
The coverage was excellent. However, the focus should be on all athletes wherever they are from rather than so much on athletes from USA. [10:18]
Long distance running has been dominated by runners from East African nations in the past, but Grant Fisher came through. [13:09]
Jamaica is amazing, being such a small country, producing amazing athletes. [14:50]
Medal counts is not the most important part of the Olympics. [17:16]
Noah Lyles and Fred Kerley have amazing performances. [23:01]
Leslie Tebogo from Botswana and Kenny Bednarek are two guys to keep an eye on. [28:37]
The human can only deliver a maximum effort for around seven seconds, and then at around 20 seconds you get overcome with lactic acid and you have to slow down further. [31:40]
Sometimes a wind meter is involved to compute the records. [34:48]
There is a significant advantage in drafting in the running races, not just Tour de France and swimming. [41:09]
Why is being a gracious loser important? [46:27]
There are a lot of older records on the womenâs side that should be wiped out. [54:58]
The steeplechase is very unusual but exciting. [56:55]
The 4 x 100 relay event is very controversial. [01:00:05]
The Marathon is dominated by runners of East African descent. The 20-kilometer walk was an event folks trained well for. [01:10:41]
The high jump was fun to watch. The finalists had to have a jump off. [01:12:19]
Pole vaulter Mondo Duplantis is coached by his parents. He started pole vaulting when he was three years old. [01:14:26]
The long jump and the triple jump had amazing performances. [01:17:49]
The shot put was dominated by Ryan Crowser. Discus gave Jamaica another gold. Hammer throw gold went to Katzberg from Canada. [01:19:49]
The javelin throw was a surprise winner, Neeraj Chopra from India. [01:20:54]
The winner of the decathlon, Markus Rooth from Norway was a huge upset. [01:21:53]

I saw my friend the other day, asked âHow are you doing?â and he said: âIâm trying to be a better parent.â What a cool answer!
The quip alone speaks volumes about his desire to do the best he can, and his self-awareness as he makes his best effort to raise toddlers. We ended up having a whole conversation about parenting as he began self-reflecting and spoke about patterns from his own childhood, his desire to avoid undesirable ones and model favorable ones, and how his peers kept him in check with great effectiveness. I told him Iâd email him my all-time favorite parenting article, âThe Power (and Peril) of Praising Your Kids: How Not to Talk To Your Kidsâ, and share my favorite insights about parenting young ones, as my kids are now 26 and 24, and this conversation ended up being the inspiration for todayâs episode.
It doesnât matter how old your kids areâthere are great takeaways for all parents in this show (as well as prospective parents) about things like overparenting and the importance of observing cultural norms and perhaps choosing to do things your way, instead of merely following others, while still acknowledging that some circumstances require a very delicate balance (like âhelpingâ your kids with their homework or college admission essays). I also discuss the idea that we actually have less influence than we think on our kids destiny, why it is more effective to praise the effort they make, rather than the results they receive, and the importance of realizing that while we do have a distinct ability to screw our kids up, their positives and successes will largely be self-directed.
TIMESTAMPS:
To learn how to parent, we look at what we learned in our own childhoodâŠ.what was good and what was not so good. [00:56]
It seems like kids are over-parented these days. [03:54]
These days if a kid gets a B in high school, their chances of being accepted at university are slim. [07:06]
Commercials during the Olympics showed different attitudes from parents regarding sports. Never give up on finding what you love. [08:56]
Parents have way less influence than we think on our kids' destiny. [12:54]
Give the kids opportunities and then stand back. [15:45]
You do not really need to praise results. You praise effort toward improvement. [20:25]
Be like your kidâs traffic cop. [27:11]
The kids can possibly be involved in the decision-making regarding rules and consequences. [30:47]

In todayâs episode I welcome track star Sue McDonald to the show!
Sue is no ordinary track starâshe is shattering world records in the masters track and field arena going where no human has ever gone before in her age groups and putting out unbelievable times at 61 years old! This mother of three from Santa Barbara, California, is virtually on world record watch every time she competes, and I had a great visit meeting her personally in her home environment and finding out the secrets of what is possible when you take care of your body and you dedicate yourself to training and competitive goals and literally defy the aging process. Regardless of whether you're interested in trying to challenge Sue or take down her records, it's great to realize what's possible when you continue that dedication to peak performance and setting challenging goals and having a wonderful consistent training regimen.
In this episode, Sue describes her lifestyle and her training regimen as âboringâ, but what you get out of that is the realization that these little things do really count every single dayâand that you can get better even as you age chronologically. I can't think of a more inspiring guest to have you reflect on your own lifestyle and your own personal goals. Instead of just sitting back and telling stories about how things were so great back in the day, Sue is doing things that will just blow your mind and in a variety of events: sheâs an elite sprinter, middle distance runner, and a multi-event athlete with things like High Jump and Heptathlon. Join me and Sue in Santa Barbara for this awesome conversation to learn some of her secrets and get inspired to go out there and set your own goals!
TIMESTAMPS:
Brad Introduces this inspiring guest, a 61-year-old champion track and field athlete. Most people talk about what it was like back in the day, but this woman is still doing it. [01:14]
What is a heptathlon for women? [05:22]
After nearly qualifying for the Olympics in college, she left competition for a while, but returned. [08:43]
She set the American womenâs high jump record when she was 55 years old. [10:20]
She had a time with the pole vault as well. [11:44]
Between the ages of 32 and 50 she was doing endurance activities. [14:40]
The main reason people do Masters Track and Field is the friendly supportive atmosphere of the other participants. [19:42]
Sue has many world records, including the steeplechase. [20:26]
How does she manage the training necessary when she is the mother of three and is age 61? [21:58]
Consistency is the most important concept. [24:21]
The possibilities of recovering from stuff that usually requires surgery and debilitation are actually amazing. [33:29]
What are some of the other things she does to be the best athlete? The main thing is focusing on sleep. [38:12]
Most Americans gain a pound a year from age 25 to 65. How does Sue manage her diet? [39:49]
There is no reason to stop athletic activities as we age. [52:01]
Did Sue get nervous back when trying out for the Olympics? Now? How does she manage the mental pressure? [58:06]

Welcome back to another rebroadcast of a popular episode. This one dates back to 2022!What is the best way to eat? How about we go deep and sort everything out in a reasonable, thoughtful manner?
This is going to be a multi-part presentation, with part one focusing on the rationale for eating an animal based diet. This topic can get so confusing, controversial and frustrating, and this episode, I am making a great effort to get sensible and simplify things, with facts backed by respected science to help you choose the best foods and steer clear of the gimmicks, the overly restrictive diets, the dogma and the marketing hype out there that can be so confusing to us.
TIMESTAMPS:
What is the best way to eat? Brad is presenting a sensible simplified answer. [01:01]
Buying the organic and sustainably raised foods can be less costly than a diet of common mainstream groceries. Check out the Carnivore Scores Ranking Chart. [02:29]
The vegan and plant-based movement eliminates the most nutrient-dense foods in the name of health. [08:47]
There are benefits from ketosis. The ancestors survived on it, but it wasnât always the best. [10:47]
The first step is stepping away from the mainstream standard western diet of processed foods. [14:47]
Being average in todayâs society isnât necessarily the best. The U.S. population today is the sickest and fattest in history. [17:34]
Even the finest restaurants and stores use refined industrial seed oils! [21:35]
The highly palatable foods with a combination of sugar and fat lead to over-consumption. [26:04]
Many diets are gimmicks. You need to understand what is best for you. Itâs perfectly healthy and natural to spike glucose. [33:05]
No need for cheat days, or any crappy junk food. A healthy indulgence as a treat once in a while is fine. Use the Carnivore Score Chart from Bradkearns.com as a guide. [36:25]
The process of losing excess body fat starts with getting healthy first. [39:49]
Move more daily. [41â35]

Itâs time for more Q&A!
Thank you so much to everyone for writing inâwe have a ton of really interesting comments and questions that I canât wait to work through in todayâs episode. I really appreciate all your questions and contributions to this community (if you want to join in, email [email protected]), and we thoughtfully read, consider, and answer every single email that comes in.
In todayâs show, we start with a question from listener Brian who wants to see more examples of a âcommon manâ dayâwhat about people who have to get up at 5am and have a desk job? What kind of workouts and lifestyle recommendations do I suggest to those who have to get up at âunnaturalâ times of the day and have certain lifestyle restrictions based on their circumstances? I also answer questions about optimizing protein intake, tips for keeping your healthy diet affordable, the foods that you can get non-organic when youâre on a budget, the importance of sleep and how sleep deprivation makes everything take 20% longer, how to ensure proper recovery in sprinting, my thoughts on a recent Instagram post from Dr. Andrew Huberman, and more!
TIMESTAMPS:
Brian Fitzsimmons is asking Brad to suggest dealing with circadian rhythms and workouts for people whose daily life doesnât allow for optimal scheduling. [01:02]
Ray wants to know if he sprints for 10 to 20 seconds, how many times should he do it, and how much should he rest? You should do 4 to 8 sprints of 10 to 20 seconds with a 6 to 1 recovery. [10:58]
Scottsdale Wellness Center is asking about the myth about the notion of too much protein. [13:09]
Mark Miller from Melbourne is asking about the Zone Two or MAF fitness trend of slowing down. [17:49]
When talking about high intensity training, realize it is not for the novice. [22:58]
What is the recommended period of luxurious rest intervals when sprinting? The faster you run, the more recovery you need. [32:40]
Mark is asking about the recommendation to engage in some form of resistance training. [36:49]
Brad talks about the dangers of road cycling. [47:07]

Enjoy this rebroadcast breather show giving an overview of what I eat in a day!
While my diet is not super exciting or full of a ton of variety, I have locked into a pattern that works for me (while always remaining open-minded in case any changes are necessaryâhence no more fasting, more carbs, fruit, and calories in general!).
As you will hear, my focus these days is entirely on performance and recovery, so I have made adjustments here and there to my diet in order to support my performance and recovery goals as I strive towards maximum cellular energy status at all times. I talk about how and why my historical eating pattern has dramatically changed, share my favorite breakfast smoothie recipe, and explain how getting expert advice from Marek Health really helped me hone in on the best supplements for my system (many of which I now include daily in my breakfast smoothie).
You will also hear what I eat for lunch and dinner, how I prepare it, if I still eat as much chocolate as I used to, and my current stance on eating restaurant food!

If you are in the habit of fasting until noon or are having a 16-8 eating pattern, that puts you at risk..
This show is about second guessing fastingâsomething Iâve been talking about extensively for the last few years on this podcast, sharing the revised strategy I have been following: putting fasting aside in favor of striving for maximum nutrient density in my diet and maximum cellular energy status at all times with my new mantra for the future, for longevity, and for peak performance: perform, recover, perform, and recover. Because I want all of my stress capacity and energy going into athletic performance, my fitness regimen, and recovery as best as I possibly can, that means going for nutrition rather than tapping into the many strategies and techniques that can be categorized as restrictive dieting (keto, low-fat, carnivore, vegan, etc).
Yes, fasting has been touted for many amazing health benefits and the body works most efficiently in a fasted state, but in this show, I explain why I decided to rethink fasting and revise my approach to my daily diet, and the results I have experienced from this change.
TIMESTAMPS:
The body works most effectively in a fasted state, however if youâre are restricting calories, youâre restricting macronutrients to the extent that it overwhelms your stress capacity. [00:46]
When you develop leaking gut syndrome from eating processed foods, it is causing inflammatory conditions in the body. [05:22]
The unfettered access of indulgent foods is difficult to navigate through and be resilient against. [07:30]
If you start cutting back your total caloric intake, you are at risk of turning down important metabolic dials, reproduction, repair, growth and locomotion. [08:29]
The most important start to improving your diet is cutting back on the refined industrial seed oils, refined grains, refined sugars and foods that are packaged. [14:25]
Before you consider fasting strategy in the name of losing excess body fat, optimize your protein intake. [18:33]
The government recommending a certain RDA, it is for survival, not optimization. You need a gram per pound protein every day on average to thrive. [20:19]
During sleep both anabolic and catabolic processes are operating concurrently. [25:26]
What are the incidental benefits of this focus on protein? [28:06]
One rationale for fasting is gaining a sense of control and discipline but fasting is a stressful practice. [31:22]
We want to make sure that we donât overload the stress side of the equation in modern life. [36:00]
It is important to have some calories before going out for peak performance work. [43:59]
It is quite possible that our ancestors were not fasting as has been imagined. [45:43]
Bulletproof coffee may be a good way to start the day, but you are not getting nutrition with it. [49:57]

I am so pleased to introduce a fantastically awesome show with Thais Gibson, creator of the Personal Development School!
She sent me a very intriguing overview of what she might talk about on the show and I said, âSure, letâs talk about it,â but I gotta tell you, I was blown awayâthis is one of my favorite shows I have ever had on the B.rad podcast!
Listeners, I think this will be tremendously valuable and potentially life changing for youâI will say now that it will be for me, and Iâm sure it helped that I unknowingly became the Guinea pig for a lot of the show. In this episode, you will hear essentially a live coaching call where Thais demonstrates her expertise and her methods on real life examples from me, Brad, especially my incongruence between my stated goals and my behavior patterns. We picked out the pursuit of wealth and financial security as something that I at times get frustrated by or feel deficient in, (perhaps because of subconscious patterns kicking in) and you will hear Thais explain the causes of self-sabotage and how to reprogram certain thoughtsâwhich is especially interesting to hear once Thais explains that we are operating from our conscious mind three to five percent of the time!
If you have been listening to the podcast a lot and you read and you educate yourself, your conscious mind may be doing really well, acquiring the knowledge and skills you need to succeed, but your subconscious âneedsâ still will come in and oftentimes interfere. So, itâs time for Brad to get processed and dig deep and explore what is going on here when self-sabotage kicks in.
Thais Gibson is a counselor, a bestselling author of a book called Learning Love and the co-founder of the fabulous Personal Development School. She also has a Ph.D. and over 13 certifications in modalities ranging from CBT, NLP, somatic experiencing, internal family systems, to shadow work and hypnosis. Thais had nearly a decade of experience running a successful private practice and founded The Personal Development School, an online learning platform, to provide a more accessible, authentic way for clients to transform their lives. I enrolled immediately after we finished this recording, and I want you to go visit her website and consider doing the same. She offers a test run where you can see what itâs all aboutâcheck it out at personaldevelopmentschool.com.
TIMESTAMPS:
People may not always be aware that they are self-sabotaging because it usually occurs at a subconscious level. [00:53]
Your conscious mind is responsible for roughly 3 to 5 percent of all of your beliefs, thoughts, emotions, and actions or decisions. Your subconscious is responsible for 95 to 97 percent. [04:48]
We all have subconscious personality needs. [07:54]
Thais uses Brad as an example to unpack what needs it relates to. She asks first, what does he do in his spare time? [09:34]
Where does he spend his money? What does he like to learn about? [12:10]
Our subconscious mind is also the host of all of our limiting beliefs. [19:46]
There is a tool for how to pull up what your limiting beliefs are. [21:42]
We're scared of something that's hidden in the periphery at a subconscious level of mind [24:29]
Reconditioning is a tool for reprogramming. [26:25]
Thais identifies characteristics of people who have been in a relationship with a narcissist. [30:41]
Look for the things that trigger you. Plan your limiting belief and use its opposite. [33:02]
Step one: What is your core belief and its opposite? Step two: what are 10 memories to support? They can be recent memories, really old memories, doesn't matter. 10 memories to support this new idea about yourself. I am, in fact, good enough. Step three: listen back for 21 days. [34:17]
When thinking about financial security, many people struggle with their subconscious as in feeling they donât deserve it or some parts of society that have a distaste for the inequitable distribution of wealth. [43:10]
There are seven areas of life that need attention. Career, financial, mental, emotional, spiritual, physical and relationship. To ignore one area, we will pay for it later. [52:45]
What specific things or set of things are you going to do on a daily basis to reprogram? [59:13]
So much futile energy and effort toward change without addressing these core issues is going to be tough. [01:06:13]
