The words we say to our children can stay with them for a lifetime.

He also shares how years of consistent training helped his body create alternative blood flow around the blockage, potentially saving his life before surgery ever took place.

Does the number on the scale determine how you feel about yourself?

In EP 134 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel tackle one of the biggest mental roadblocks in health and fitness: letting a number define your success. They discuss why the scale can be misleading, how water, recovery, hormones, and training all influence body weight, and why strength, health, and confidence matter far more than a daily weigh-in.

The conversation then shifts into one of Brad's favorite topics: structural balance. Using producer Cesar's recent movement assessment as a real-life example, Brad explains why flexibility, mobility, movement quality, and correcting imbalances should come before loading heavy weights.

You'll also learn why so many people develop shoulder, back, hip, and knee pain, what "pattern overload" is, why many popular fitness gadgets don't deliver better results, and how proper programming can help you train for years without injury.

Whether you're an athlete or simply trying to stay healthy, this episode will change the way you think about fitness.

In this episode:

  • Why the scale shouldn't define your self-worth
  • Sleep, recovery, and daily performance
  • The truth about body composition
  • Fitness modeling vs. real-world health
  • Structural balance explained
  • Cesar's movement assessment
  • Why stretching matters more than you think
  • Pattern overload and injury prevention
  • Strength balance for long-term performance
  • Why smarter programming beats harder workouts
  • Building strength without pain

Brad shares how taking time away reminded him that recovery isn't laziness. It's one of the most overlooked tools for improving your physical and mental health. The conversation also explores the emotional side of parenting, watching children become independent, and why it's important to continue investing in your marriage and your own identity as life changes.

On the fitness side, Brad breaks down why so many people unknowingly sabotage their progress by training too hard all the time. He explains German Body Composition Training, Peripheral Heart Action Training, progressive overload, and why smarter programming almost always beats simply doing more.

Busy schedule, low energy, constantly feeling behind?

In Episode 126 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad (in studio) and Raquel (calling in remotely) tackle a real-life Q&A around one of the biggest struggles people face: how to stay healthy when life is chaotic.

In Episode 125, Brad and Raquel sit down with Garett Bolles, left tackle for the Denver Broncos and 1st-team All-Pro, to talk about the road that got him there — and it wasn’t easy.

From a turbulent childhood and time in juvenile detention to struggling with learning disabilities, Garett’s story is about more than football. It’s about resilience, identity, and choosing a different path when everything is stacked against you.

We get into:

• The reality behind his NFL journey — highs and lows

This episode hits close to home.

In Episode 123 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Raquel shares a personal experience that changed her perspective on aging, strength, and long-term health — her mom’s fall and hip fracture.

What seems like a random accident is often the result of something deeper: loss of strength, balance, and resilience over time.

Brad and Raquel use this moment to have a real conversation about what it actually takes to stay independent, mobile, and strong as we age.

This episode isn’t about fear.
It’s about preparation.

We talk about:

• Why falls become more common with age
• The real role of strength training in preventing injuries
• Why weightlifting is about longevity, not aesthetics
• How sitting and inactivity accelerate decline
• Why most people overestimate their physical abilities
• The importance of consistency over intensity
• How to build balance, stability, and confidence in your body

You don’t need complicated workouts.
You need consistent movement and strength.

The habits you build today will shape your life 10–20 years from now.

If you’ve ever thought “I’ll start later,” this episode is your reminder not to wait.

Getting your health back after 40 isn’t about doing more.
It’s about doing the right things, in the right order.

In Episode 122 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel break down the biggest mistakes people make when trying to “get back on track” — and why going all-in too fast often leads to burnout, injuries, and frustration.

Your body in your 40s and 50s isn’t the same as it was in your 20s. Hormones shift, stress accumulates, and recovery becomes just as important as effort.

In this episode, we cover:

• Why aggressive workouts backfire after 40
• Why strategies from your 20s stop working
• How stress and fatigue impact your progress
• The importance of strength training for longevity
• Why sleep, nutrition, and consistency matter more than intensity
• How to build non-negotiables that actually stick
• The real impact of alcohol on performance and recovery

We also talk about the behind-the-scenes habits that actually create results — the ones most people overlook while chasing quick fixes.

If you’re feeling stuck, tired, or overwhelmed trying to “do everything right,” this episode will help you simplify your approach and build a sustainable path forward.

Slow down. Build smarter. Stay consistent.

They talk about:

  • Adjusting training as you age (and avoiding pattern overload)
  • Why walking might be one of the most underrated tools for health

  • How sleep changes everything
  • Protein intake, intermittent fasting, and real food vs shortcuts

Welcome to Episode 120 of Your Ultimate Comeback with Brad and Raquel.

In this episode, we’re talking about something bigger than just a new year.
We’re entering a new era of nutrition and health.

For decades, we were told that fat was the enemy, protein should be limited, and carbohydrates should make up the bulk of our diet.

But the new food pyramid has completely flipped that model upside down.

Instead of eating like a bakery, the new guidelines suggest we should eat more like a steakhouse.

If it grows in the ground or walks on the earth, it’s probably a better choice than ultra-processed foods.

Brad and Raquel break down what this shift means and how to apply it in real life, including:

• Why protein and healthy fats are foundational for metabolic health
• The “protein and vegetables first” strategy for better blood sugar control
• Why many people are under-eating protein
• How coffee before protein in the morning impacts hormones
• Why intermittent fasting isn’t ideal for everyone

We also discuss a major development in the world of peptides. Many peptides that were previously misunderstood or restricted are now becoming more accessible through physician guidance, opening new possibilities for recovery, longevity, and metabolic health.

If you’ve ever felt confused about nutrition advice, this episode will help simplify things and give you practical strategies you can apply immediately.

This isn’t just a new year.

It’s a new era of eating and health optimization.

If you’re over 40, you’ve probably been told that losing fat means doing more cardio.

In Episode 119 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel break down why that advice is outdated — and sometimes counterproductive.

More cardio doesn’t automatically mean more fat loss. In fact, excessive cardio can elevate stress hormones, impact recovery, and make it harder to maintain muscle mass as you age.

In this episode, we unpack the biggest cardio myths, including:

• Myth #1: More cardio equals more fat loss
• Myth #2: If you’re not drenched in sweat, it doesn’t count
• Myth #3: Cardio ruins muscle
• Myth #4: You need long sessions to see results

Instead of endless treadmill sessions, we explain how to combine strength training with smart cardiovascular work to build a stronger engine without sacrificing muscle.

You’ll learn:

• Why Zone 2 cardio is one of the most powerful longevity tools
• How VO₂ max training improves lifespan and performance
• The role of movement-based cardio and NEAT
• The ideal cardio formula for sustainable fat loss after 40

If you’re tired of chasing fat loss with more and more cardio, this episode will help you train smarter, recover better, and protect your muscle while improving your heart health.

Let’s rebuild your approach to cardio — the right way.

Welcome to Episode 118 of Your Ultimate Comeback, where Brad and Raquel introduce the foundation behind a new approach to health and longevity: The Ikaria Method.

As we move past 35 and into our 40s and beyond, the goal shifts. It’s no longer just about fat loss or muscle gain. It’s about energy, resilience, and quality of life.

The Acaria Method is built on one core belief:
Energy isn’t a feeling. It’s a biological output.

Instead of relying on caffeine, extreme workouts, or crash dieting, this method focuses on engineering your energy systems through three foundational pillars:

• Strength and movement
• Metabolic nutrition
• Recovery optimization

Brad explains why training should increase your energy, not drain it, why 30–50g of protein at breakfast can change your day, and why recovery practices like sauna and sleep are non-negotiable for longevity.

You’ll also hear how peptides fit into the bigger picture — not as shortcuts, but as amplifiers once the fundamentals are in place.

If you’re over 35, juggling career, family, stress, and trying to stay healthy without burning out, this episode lays out a smarter path forward.

This is about redefining what aging looks like.
More strength.
More clarity.
More sustainable energy.

Welcome to the Ikaria Method.

How much cardio should you really be doing?

In Episode 117 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel break down one of the most misunderstood topics in fitness: cardiovascular training.

If you’ve ever felt stuck between “I need more cardio” and “I don’t want to lose muscle,” this episode is for you.

Brad introduces a powerful but often overlooked method called Peripheral Heart Action (PHA) Training — a protocol dating back to the 1960s that alternates upper and lower body movements to create a powerful wave of circulation. The result?

• Improved cardiovascular health
• Better vascular function
• Leaner physique
• Stronger muscles
• Less joint stress than traditional cardio

You’ll learn:

  • Why excessive traditional cardio can backfire
  • How to get cardiovascular benefits without pounding your joints
  • How to structure a PHA workout
  • How often to use it
  • How to apply progressive overload within this method
  • Why this approach helped a client thrive after quadruple bypass surgery

If you're short on time but still want elite-level conditioning and muscle preservation, this conversation will change how you train.

Train smarter. Protect your joints. Build your comeback.

Inflammation is one of the most overlooked threats to your health, and it might be quietly running the show without you realizing it.

In Episode 116 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and co-host Raquel break down the real reason so many people struggle with chronic joint pain, stiffness, and slow recovery. With over 50 million Americans dealing with joint pain, this episode dives into the concept of silent inflammation and why it’s not just an “aging issue,” but a lifestyle signal your body is sending you.

You’ll learn how inflammation is influenced by mobility, nutrition, hydration, sleep, stress, and recovery, and how small daily habits can either turn inflammation up or shut it down. Brad explains practical tools like Controlled Articular Rotations (CARS) for joint health, common food sensitivities that drive inflammation, and the role supplements and peptides can play when used responsibly.

This isn’t about chasing quick fixes. It’s about building an anti-inflammatory foundation that helps you move better, feel better, and live pain-free longer.

If you’re tired of feeling stiff, inflamed, or limited by your body, this episode gives you clear, actionable steps to start reclaiming your health.

Today’s episode of Your Ultimate Comeback is a personal milestone.

Brad is turning 50, and alongside Raquel, he reflects on what longevity actually means. Not just living longer, but living better. Having the energy to move, think clearly, manage stress, and truly enjoy life with family, friends, and the people who matter most.

Together, Brad and Raquel break down the five key areas that influence longevity:
training, nutrition, supplements, lifestyle habits, and mental well-being. Brad shares what he’s changed at this stage of life, what he’s doubled down on, and the common mistakes they see people make when they chase youth instead of vitality.

This conversation isn’t about looking younger.
It’s about feeling capable, resilient, and present as the years add up.

If you’re approaching midlife or already there, this episode is a grounded, honest reset on how to add more life to your years, not just more years to your life.

Feel like you’re doing everything right but still crashing mid-day? Working out, eating clean, drinking coffee… yet your energy keeps leaking?

In Episode 114 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel break down the real reasons behind low energy, burnout, and that familiar afternoon slump. Spoiler: it’s not a willpower problem. It’s often mitochondrial inefficiency, chronic stress, under-recovery, and mismanaged training and nutrition.

We dive into how to train for energy instead of against it, why more workouts can sometimes make fatigue worse, how carbs, protein, caffeine, and sleep impact your daily output, and where peptides actually fit into the bigger picture. You’ll also learn a simple energy reset action you can apply in the next 24 hours to start feeling better fast.

Progressive overload is one of the most misunderstood concepts in fitness — and it’s the reason many people train hard without seeing results.

In Episode 113 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel break down what progressive overload actually means, how to apply it correctly, and why randomly pushing harder every workout often leads to burnout or injury instead of progress.

They cover why having a structured training plan matters, how to track progress intelligently, and how accumulation and intensification phases work together to build real strength over time. Brad also shares real-world examples from coaching clients and training his son, showing how smart programming — not just effort — creates results.

This episode also digs into the overlooked role of recovery, balance, and lifestyle stress, and how they directly impact your ability to progress in the gym.

What if some of the struggles you’re facing today didn’t start in this lifetime?

In Episode 110 of Your Ultimate Comeback, Brad and Raquel sit down with hypnotherapist Jonathan Robinson to explore the world of past life regression and how subconscious memories, patterns, and beliefs may be shaping our current lives more than we realize.

Jonathan breaks down what past life regression actually is (and what it isn’t), how the process works, and why accessing the subconscious can help people release trauma, fears, and long-standing limitations. He shares real client stories, including powerful breakthroughs around weight loss, phobias, smoking, and the feeling of “never being enough.”

Brad also opens up about his own past life regression experience, while Raquel helps guide the conversation with thoughtful questions around identity, healing, and how this work applies to everyday life.

This episode isn’t about convincing anyone of anything. It’s about curiosity, healing, and understanding the deeper layers of who we are. Whether you’re spiritually curious, skeptical-but-open, or simply looking for new tools for self-discovery, this conversation offers a fascinating look into how the past may be influencing the present.

This episode is a little different.

As we wrapped up 2025, there were a few conversations from Your Ultimate Comeback that kept coming back to us. Not because they were polished or perfect, but because they were honest, vulnerable, and stuck with us long after we stopped recording.

You’ll hear from:

  • Maya Christine on trying something unfamiliar, real-time reactions, and listening to your body
  • Mary Buckingham on self-awareness, healing, and slowing down enough to hear what matters
  • Tony Everett on confidence, mindset, and resetting after failure

Today, we want to talk about good habits for the holiday season. As we roll into this festive time of year, it's essential to find ways to enjoy ourselves while also being mindful of our health and well-being. The holiday season can be a time of joy, but it can also bring stress and unhealthy habits if we're not careful. I want to share some strategies that can help you navigate this period without feeling overwhelmed or guilty about your choices.

One of the best ways to enjoy the holidays is by incorporating gratitude into your daily routine. A simple practice like keeping a gratitude journal can shift your focus from stressors to the positive aspects of your life. Writing down three things you're grateful for each day can have a calming effect and even improve your sleep quality. This is a small yet powerful tool that can help you maintain a positive mindset during the busy holiday season.

As we gather with family and friends, it's easy to fall into the trap of overindulging in food and drink. However, you don't have to eat excessively just because it's the holidays. You can enjoy a delicious meal without going back for seconds or thirds. It's all about moderation and making conscious choices. Remember, it's perfectly fine to savor one slice of pumpkin pie instead of feeling pressured to have multiple servings.

Additionally, if you know you're going to have a big meal, consider adjusting your eating habits earlier in the day. Eating lighter meals leading up to a festive dinner can help you enjoy the feast without feeling stuffed. It's all about balance and being mindful of your total calorie intake throughout the day.

Another crucial aspect to consider during the holidays is stress management. The holiday season can be hectic, and it's essential to find ways to reduce stress. Simple practices like going for a walk after a big meal can aid digestion and provide a moment of calm amidst the chaos. Incorporating supplements like magnesium can also help manage stress levels and improve sleep quality.

Ultimately, the key to enjoying the holidays is to find a balance between indulgence and mindfulness. You can have fun, enjoy delicious food, and celebrate with loved ones without sacrificing your health. By implementing these strategies, you can navigate the holiday season with confidence and joy, ensuring that you come out on the other side feeling great. So, let's embrace the holiday spirit while also taking care of ourselves!

In Episode 52 of Your Ultimate Comeback, hosts Brad and Raquel are joined by guest Lisa Hudson-Beale, who opens up about her and her husband’s inspiring health journey. Lisa recounts the terrifying moment when her husband suffered a “widow maker” heart attack—a sudden, complete blockage of his LAD artery at age 60. This life-altering event became the catalyst for Lisa’s own personal comeback.

For years, Lisa struggled with her weight and health, often turning to food for comfort. Despite trying numerous diets, nothing seemed to last. But her husband’s brush with mortality made her realize it was time to make a serious, lasting change for the sake of both herself and her family. Together, they committed to a healthier lifestyle—cutting out processed foods, walking daily, and focusing on nutritious choices.

Lisa discovered The Schwarzbein Principle, a book that shifted her perspective on health, teaching her that it’s not just about weight loss but about building a sustainable lifestyle. Over the next 18 months, Lisa lost 50 pounds and her husband shed 35 pounds, supporting each other through their transformation. She also came to understand her all-or-nothing mentality when it comes to food, realizing that moderation wasn’t her path to success, which helped her stay consistent.

Now nearing her 60th birthday, Lisa shares how she feels better than she did in her 50s and hopes her story will inspire others who feel stuck or overwhelmed. Her message is clear: no fad diets or extreme workouts are needed—just small, consistent changes that lead to lasting results. Join Brad, Raquel, and Lisa on this powerful episode as they discuss the journey to reclaiming health and happiness, and remember, it’s never too late for your ultimate comeback.

Today, I want to share how I transformed my daughter's performance with nutrition secrets that can benefit anyone looking to enhance their energy and focus. Recently, I had the opportunity to speak to my daughter's club volleyball team, and it was a proud moment for me as a father. My daughter, who usually doesn't want to hear my advice, found my nutrition talk interesting and implemented some of the strategies I shared. The results were incredible! Her energy, effort, and performance on the court improved drastically. This experience made me realize how crucial nutrition is for performance, not just in sports but in any area that requires mental or physical effort.

In my years of working with professional athletes, CEOs, and entrepreneurs, I've seen firsthand how what we eat can significantly impact our performance. For instance, starting the day with a high-protein, high-fat meal stabilizes blood sugar levels and activates neurotransmitters that enhance focus and energy. On the other hand, consuming carbohydrates first thing in the morning can lead to energy crashes and cravings throughout the day.

I recommend that anyone looking to perform at their best should consider their meal timing and composition. For example, if you're performing in the afternoon, keep carbohydrates out of your meals leading up to that performance. Instead, focus on protein, vegetables, and healthy fats. Then, consume fruit 30 to 45 minutes before your performance to replenish muscle glycogen and boost energy.

Additionally, hydration is key. Aim to drink half your body weight in ounces of water daily, and consider incorporating electrolytes to stay well-hydrated. Remember, nutrition is not just about weight loss or gain; it's a performance mechanism. By strategically using nutrition, you can drive your energy and performance in any endeavor.

If you have questions about nutrition or performance, feel free to reach out on our Instagram page, and we’ll address them in future Q&A sessions. Stay tuned for next week’s episode, where we’ll dive deeper into the topic of peptides and their benefits for performance and recovery. Until then, take care and keep striving for your ultimate comeback!

The reality is that the process of working towards a goal is what truly matters. When we focus solely on the end result, we risk disappointment if we don't achieve it. Instead, we should focus on the daily actions and processes that lead us toward our goals. This shift in perspective can lead to a more fulfilling and successful journey. I want to encourage you to think about your goals differently. Instead of fixating on the outcome, consider what you can do every day to move closer to your desired outcome. Celebrate the small wins along the way, and remember that the journey is just as important as the destination. By focusing on the process, you can build trust in yourself and create lasting change in your life. So, let's embrace the journey and enjoy the process together.

Today, we're diving deep into the impact of social media on our health. It's a topic that many of us have been grappling with, especially in this digital age where our lives are intertwined with our online presence. The reality is that social media can have profound effects on our mental and physical well-being. From increased anxiety and depression to the pressure of maintaining a perfect online image, the consequences are real and often overlooked. As we explore this topic, I want to share my personal experiences and insights on how social media has affected my life and the lives of those around me.

In our conversation, we touch on the alarming statistics surrounding social media usage, particularly among younger generations. It's shocking to see how much time kids spend in front of screens, often at the expense of physical activity and real-life interactions. This shift has led to a decline in social skills and an increase in mental health issues, which is a growing concern for parents and educators alike.

We also discuss the addictive nature of social media and how it can lead to a cycle of comparison and dissatisfaction. It's easy to fall into the trap of believing that everyone else is living a perfect life while we struggle with our own challenges. This constant comparison can be detrimental to our self-esteem and overall happiness.

But it's not all doom and gloom. We also explore ways to mitigate the negative effects of social media. Setting boundaries, taking breaks, and being mindful of our online habits can help us regain control over our mental health. I share some practical tips that have worked for me, and I encourage you to experiment with them in your own life.

Ultimately, the goal of this episode is to empower you to take charge of your health and well-being in the face of social media's influence. By understanding the potential dangers and making conscious choices, we can create a healthier relationship with technology and improve our overall quality of life. Join us as we navigate this complex topic and strive for a better, more balanced existence in the digital age.
