Welcome back to the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show!
Today, I’m excited to talk shop with Luka Hocevar. Luka is the founder and co-owner of Vigor Ground Gym in Slovenia and Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance in Seattle. He is also the creator of Vigor Ground Fitness and Business Summit, one of the industry's most respected educational events for coaches and gym owners. Luka has personally coached over 3,000 clients, from elite NBA, NFL, UFC, and MLB athletes to rehab patients and individuals from all walks of life, aiming to look, feel, and perform at their best.
In today's episode, Luka and I chop it up about some big topics that go way beyond the gym. We discuss how real coaching extends beyond workouts and meal plans, addressing every aspect of life, including stress management, time management, and self-discipline. We explore the pillars of lasting motivation—autonomy, competence, and community—and how these drive sustainable success. We touch on the importance of taking ownership over your choices, building fitness and nutrition habits that adapt to life’s chaos, and the identity shift that needs to happen when you decide you want to be a "fit person". And so much more.
This conversation is packed with insights that will not only make you a better athlete or healthier person but also help you become a stronger, more resilient version of yourself, both inside and out.
Grab a notebook for this one because you're going to walk away with actionable strategies to help you think bigger and create lasting change that sticks. So, without further ado, here is my conversation with Luka Hocevar.

Welcome to another episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show. I'm your host, as always, Ben Brown, owner and head coach at Body Systems. We are a virtual one-on-one nutrition and fitness coaching company, and we help clients change their belief system of what it means to be healthy. And we do this with our pure science, proven results system.
Today, instead of our regular podcast, I'm excited to share an interview I did on the Success Flow Podcast with my buddies Phil Crawford and Steven Harris. In this episode, I share my personal story -- how my struggles with gastrointestinal issues ignited a passion for clinical nutrition and functional medicine and how, through years of study, I’ve come to realize that achieving health isn’t about quick fixes. Instead, it’s about treating the body as a whole, understanding the interconnectedness of our systems, and, most importantly, taking ownership of our health journey.
I discuss the emotional side of health, how mindset, belief systems, and perspective shifts are key to building a positive relationship with food and exercise, and why consistency, patience, and effort are the cornerstones of lasting change.
I’ll also dive into the importance of leading by example—how your health choices can inspire those around you, especially within your family. ,
Finally, I'll explore the role of coaching and support and why realistic, sustainable approaches are the only way to long-term success.
So, if you’re ready to make a change, this episode will give you the tools, mindset, and inspiration to take ownership and build the foundation for a healthier, more fulfilling life. So, without further ado, let's dive into my interview on the Success Flow Podcast.

In today's Q&A episode, I'm answering questions submitted by our listeners on nutrition, fitness, lifestyle, and, of course, fat loss.
First, I'll explore the world of health tech—what are the best apps and wearables out there, and are they genuinely helping us or just adding noise?
Next, I'll clear up some common misconceptions about foods you think are healthy. You might be surprised by what you learn about everyday items like peanut butter, cheese, and even your morning eggs!
Finally, I'll demystify net carbs—what are they, how are they calculated, and can they help you manage your carbohydrate intake more effectively?

Welcome to another Q&A episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, where I answer some of your most pressing questions about nutrition, fitness, and fat loss.
I'm your host, as always, Ben Brown, Owner and Head Coach here at Body Systems. We are an online nutrition and fitness coaching company, and we help you change your belief system around what it means to be healthy.
In today's podcast, I tackle the ways people often self-sabotage their weight loss efforts. I'll explore why setting realistic expectations is more than just a guideline—it's necessary, and how missteps in how we structure our diets and our day-to-day choices can lead to setbacks rather than progress.
Next, I discuss a common client question: How long does it take to see weight loss results? It's tempting to look for quick fixes, but real, sustainable weight loss is a nuanced journey. I'll break down what factors influence the weight loss timeline and why patience and consistency are your best allies.
Finally, I'll address a significant hurdle for many: What if tracking your food intake just isn't working for you? Not everyone thrives with meticulous tracking—sometimes, it's stressful or unmanageable. I'll explore alternative strategies to help you maintain awareness of your eating habits without feeling overwhelmed.

I'm Ben Brown, head coach and owner here at Body Systems and I'm excited to welcome you to this Q&A episode.
In today's episode, we are going to talk about whether you're using the right weight for a given exercise and how to know how much weight you should be using.
We're going to talk about whether it's possible to lose fat and build muscle at the same time.

How do I get more toned without becoming too bulky?
What's better, heavier weights or higher reps?
Can you split up your workouts and still get the same benefits?
How do we differentiate between weight loss and fat loss, and how does muscle factor into that equation?
I answer all of these questions in this week's Q&A episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show.

All too often, clients join our Smart Nutrition Coaching Program having spent years taking care of everyone else but themselves, only to realize that the person they see in the mirror is no longer a reflection of who they want to be.
This exact scenario played out with my wife, Kristina. A former collegiate athlete and all-around hard-charging individual, Kristina put all of her time and effort into work, taking care of our three kids, and volunteering what little time she had left. She found herself drinking more alcohol than she'd like to admit, snacking in the evenings, hitting up fast food restaurants on the way home from work, staying up too late, and not getting enough sleep. She realized that she wasn't living up to the person she wanted to be for her kids.
A few years ago, Kristina made a massive shift. She left her job in corporate America, became my business partner, hired Coach Joey, started to prioritize herself, and her results have been incredible.
In today's episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, I'm excited to share my wife's experience both in the trenches at Body Systems and as a client, along with all of the wisdom, knowledge, and advice she has gleaned over the last few years.
If you're pouring all of your energy into your children, your career, and/or your commitments, and you're unhappy with the person you've become, then I hope this conversation resonates with you and gives you the kick in the pants to start shifting your mindset around what could be possible if you start prioritizing yourself.

If it sounds too good to be true...
It probably is.
In today's episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, I call bullshit on all the crap being spewed over social media on how to lose weight without having to make any sacrifices.
Without giving up alcohol.
Without tracking your food.
Without meal prepping or meal planning.
Without giving up junk food.
Because there will ALWAYS be tradeoffs.
And while you don't have to do all of these things to lose weight, the process is going to be THAT much harder in the long-run.

In today's special Q&A episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, I'll discuss some of the common practices that people think that they should be doing, but actually are probably hindering their success, whether you can still lose weight while drinking alcohol and eating junk food, if you need to stretch before I work out, and whether or not being sore is a sign of a good workout.

Things change as we get older. We start to accumulate more belly fat. We have a harder time losing weight. We have a harder time recovering from our workouts. We experience more stress and frankly have more responsibilities. We have more excuses as to why it becomes harder to eat healthier and exercise. We feel like we just don't have enough time to do the things we need to do to move the needle. And if we do, we feel like the things we used to do aren't working anymore.
In today's episode of the Smart Nutrition Made Simple Show, I'm sharing what I call my 10 commandments of fat loss over 40, and ways we can start to look at nutrition, fitness, strength training, joint health, and recovery a little bit differently.
