I started getting this strange feeling that modern fitness has become my school experience. We have lost sight of the purpose. Achievements, presentations, and attachments have replaced self-development. Listen or watch and tell me if you agree. Let's go

I almost always advocate for a slow, patient approach because immediate gratification typically does not serve us well. The "Protein Sparing Modified Fast" is a great way to achieve rapid fat loss and serves specific purposes. If you're interested in losing a lot of body fat in a short amount of time, and who isn't, listen up.

UFC Freedom 250 was this past weekend, and it was AWESOME!! Because of this fight card at the White House, I was moved to do something I've never done before: take down a post on social media. I talk about the aforementioned situation and give an in depth look at the fights themselves.

Don't be such a narrow-minded meathead. Open your eyes to exercise selection. I love deadlifting and squatting, and I mean that literally. I LOVE THEM! That does not mean that everyone has to do them. It also does not mean that the optimal routine must be very narrow. Let's go, download, subscribe, listen, and watch, tell a friend, and let's get ripped.

It's a very hard lesson to teach people, but the stronger and more advanced you become, the more capable you become of doing less overall work. You are doing "better" work at this point, but it's very hard to get this message through to people. I try on today's episode, so listen up, ok!

The new wave of online fitness influencers is causing a lot of problems. Honestly, it’s too many to list, and I’d run the risk of sounding like a bitter malcontent by listing all the reasons why I am not big and famous, and they are. It doesn’t make the veracity of my claims any less real, though. Online fitness has us all chasing things that are visually appealing, easily marketed, or both. This doesn’t leave much room to discuss their effectiveness or purpose. That's what I focus on today, the effective and purposeful way to go about doing all this crap.

There have always been people who feel confident to talk about things that they shouldn't really be talking about. That's a tale as old as time, but now it's rather lucrative. Peptides are one of the biggest topics in health, thanks to GLP-1s like Ozempic for weight loss and other muscle-building, anti-aging chemicals. Today, I give a little background on what they are and how you should or shouldn't use them.

We don't know how often our stated motive is actually false. You probably aren't lifting weights to get stronger or jogging to live longer; you are most likely doing it to look better. On today's episode, I explain how important it is to be aggressively honest with yourself to find true success.

Don't pretend like you know what you're talking about. Almost everyone wants to lose body fat, and so they start doing tons of cardio, which is a very bad idea. I am not anti-cardio by any stretch of the imagination, but it is a grossly mismanaged entity.
In today's episode, I break this all down for you.

It was kind of a long one today, but that's ok. I talk about culture, music, grappling, UFC, and, most importantly, the right way to approach fat loss. You can't sacrifice your progress for the quick fix because that will only make things worse for you in the end. Listen or watch to find out why.

-lunges
-split squats - A lower-body Hinge Movement
-Deadlifts (RDL, Conventional, One Legged)
-Hypers

Pick 1 or 2 from each category to mix into two or three workouts a week. Do one from each category every workout and always push to get a little more weight or one more rep.
Good lean proteins with every meal and mix in high-volume carbs (typically sources with lots of fiber)
A good place to start is 12 calories for every pound of total body weight. Example, I'm 175 lbs. 175 x 12 = 2,100

Who doesn't love some good, conclusive, scientific proof to back up what you've been saying for a while? That's exactly what I'm bringing you on today's Work in Progress. Less frequent, but very intense bouts of resistance training, mixed with a whole lot of low-level work, is the way to go!

Whether we like it or not, the disease of addiction is profoundly misunderstood. I fully realize that this disease is complex and challenging to understand, but unfortunately, I think it's often misunderstood willfully. Addiction is never pretty, fun, or enjoyable to deal with, and this becomes hard when it is you or your loved one who needs treatment. I give you my thoughts, and I'd love your feedback.

It is essential to convey the message of patience to you. It really is that important. If you try to do anything related to fitness too fast, you will not only fail but also solidify your place in a harmful cycle. All the good stuff comes at a cost, and if you want things quickly, the price will outweigh the dividend.

There is demagoguery when it comes to selecting exercises. Some are more "Bad Ass" than others and some are more "Wussy" than others, but the truth is, it varies from person to person. I am happy to provide some clarity to this very unnecessarily controversial topic.

There are so many nonsensical myths in the world of female training and nutrition. The worst part is that they're largely believed to be true. Most women are obsessed with cardio because they don't want to get bigger. Most women won't touch real weight because they don't want to be bulky. Most women eat carrot sticks and veggie burgers because they think that's healthy food. Ladies, it's time to do what works!

Having abs is fantastic, and having a legendary booty is excellent, but these things are not why diet and training are essential. I figured out who I could be as a man and noticed what I was genuinely capable of, thanks to the changes I made in my diet and training. It isn't a cure-all, but it's a very potent guide to becoming who you're meant to be.

Myriad other things might work or be useful, but they won't create as much progress as just sticking to the original fundamentals I mentioned.

It's easy to admire people who excel at something and then adopt their practices to achieve the same excellence. The problem is that, with fitness, exceptional people are not like us. They are gifted genetically, usually do it for a paycheck, and, of course, there is a pharmaceutical factor. So, in this episode, I discuss filtering out the stuff you can and can't adopt regarding diet and training.

I get into debates over deadlifts and back squats and their value vs their danger. I despise this argument and as with most issues in health and fitness, I don't think there needs to be a discussion. The answer to nearly all exercise science and nutrition questions is, "It depends." In this episode, I will give you all the most relevant arguments on both sides and try to wrap them up nicely.

I am reading Hero with A Thousand Faces by Joseph Campbell. I got moved to discuss the parallels of the hero's journey with changing your body with diet and exercise. Campbell himself said, “All Mythology is a process of Transformation.” I dive into where I've failed in this transformation journey so that hopefully, you don't have to. Plus, I get very heated about female celebrities and the Olympics.

Some people are born rich. Many are not. It doesn't change how one accumulates wealth; the same can be said about acquiring a great body. The more money you have, the easier it becomes to invest and make more, and the leaner and more muscular you get, the easier it becomes to maintain and improve. Most importantly, get-rich-quick schemes don't ever work, and neither do get shredded-quick schemes.

I get irate during this show, and it isn't fake. I have genuinely had enough of these phony fitness voices giving people faulty information about diet. Training doesn't bother me as much because people need to find their way inside the gym regardless of where they start. Most people are sincerely desperate for meaningful nutrition information and assistance with weight loss, yet the viral voices only further frustrate and disappoint them. This episode is step one in my battle against this manipulative exploitation.

Watching what you eat seems to become exponentially harder once Halloween hits, and that added pressure doesn't subside until the New Year. The holidays are festive. There will be more social gatherings and communal fun, with it, reasons to stuff that face. I do not recommend abstaining from the increased culinary fun, but I also dislike the heightened shame cycle that can come with it. The holiday struggles can be devastatingly painful if you’ve spent nine months monitoring what you’re eating and training with intent. Here, I will provide my five most significant tips to help you positively get through the holidays. Here is to a New Year without regrets of overindulgence or lack of visceral fun.

So, I solicited questions for a question-and-answer session and took over an hour to answer two. The reason being that they were two rather important questions. The first question was how to deal with an aggressive sweet tooth, and the other question was about addiction. I hope you enjoy this episode. Please like, subscribe, and tell a friend. Thank you.

There is an idea of Michael Catherwood—Some sort of abstraction, something illusory. That was a line from "American Psycho," and I do not feel it applies to me. I focus this podcast around it, and as the title says, it is the best pod I've ever made. That is subjective, but I can certainly say this is the most meaningful and authentic podcast I've ever made.

Following my adage, "Lose weight and get stronger," you will have a better-looking physique. This is not debatable. Many people will try to debate this, but they're dumb. I feel so profoundly sympathetic to people who are motivated to change their physique but are also confused by the contradicting voices in the new fitness world. Lose weight and get stronger at the same time. Everything will fall into place. I break down the "get stronger" part in today's episode. I will cover the "lose weight" part on an upcoming podcast.

This episode is very good, but I don't know if it's good. I also don't want to pretend I'm very invested in it. I am deeply and sincerely invested in providing useful or entertaining information, but I don't desire to do what I do now. I have met two dozen people in the last year alone who tell me everything I need to do to make this podcast grow. I silently acknowledge that all of these people are neither well-informed nor eloquent. Either way, a great show about psychological adaptation and sustainable practices is here. I genuinely hope you like it.

If youre desperate to change the way you look, it's understandable to makes choices that will speed up the process. Unfortunately, some of these choices can have negative impacts on your health and they're most likely not sustainable. Thats why I devote this episode to discuss how your health should always come first and then aesthetic changes will come as a byproduct.

It wouldn't be prudent to do a Ladies Podcast if I didn't follow it up with a Men's Pod. Just so you know, both the mens and women's pod are very suitable for all listeners, each simply focuses on issues that are often gender specific. This episode gets into the cardio curse, fat loss and muscle gain, hormones, neck and forearm training and much more.

You women tend to overly focus on certain things and not focus enough on others. That is not meant as an insult, it's just an observation. SO this episode is about correcting the course for all you ladies out there. Nutrition and training is relatively similar between the two sexes, but there are a couple small details that I have seen far too often for me not to strike down. I hope you like this episode and find it informative.

I start this show by stating that I don't really like putting out content that doesn't, at least somewhat differentiate itself from other content. Even though I would get much more traction doing a show about hot-button fitness topics, it pains me to do it. So, today's show is about matching your motives to your goals. Oftentimes, I have matched my motives to what I thought my goals should be. It never ends well. As I've aged and become a parent, I don't really do much of anything that I genuinely want to do. I, by my own fault, live to meet the expectations of others and not fulfill some internal desire. For better or for worse, that is why this podcast you're listening to isn't exactly thriving. I don't give a fuck about what I need to do to make it a "big show." I've tried to listen, and it fails, and I've started to investigate and lose motivation. I'm not saying I want to turn you away, but to let you know this show is authentic. I don't do it for money. That's for damn sure. I don't even do it to be critically applauded because I don't hear anything in a digital format that I think is very good. I don't listen to podcasts, so I'm not a great audience.
That being said...Subscribe, Like, and help me.

I am tired of people searching online for the newest and best training advice or scrolling Instagram and TikTok for the perfect program. In today's episode, I break down the absolute most practical training advice possible to create the best program for yourself. If you are curious about how to make the most of your performance or appearance, this is the episode for you. I break down the difference between volume and intensity and why elements of both need to make their way into training. I also try to explain how and why training history, age, and lifestyle need to factor into how you use my programming.

Listen. I am not an angry guy. Most people that know me on a personal level would support that claim. I do have a threshold, and when it is reached, I tend to lose my cool. Well, in this episode, my threshold was reached and I absolutely lose my cool. I stumbled across a fitness "influencer" who thinks it's ok to mimic and ridicule a developmentally disabled, special needs fellow. I will not take that one lying down. On top of all that excitement, I answer a bunch of listener questions ranging from BJJ conditioning to protein levels. It is an entertaining and informative show my friends.

I loved doing this episode because it really did come from the heart. I'm angered by the recent response to the episode I did with Judd Lienhard. Judd showed great wisdom and an open mind, yet people flamed him for it. Many people believe the world is binary. There is a right and wrong in their view, and I find that ludicrous. The human experience is incredibly complex and trying to simplify or compartmentalize it, is foolhardy. I also give you two of my biggest tips for weight loss. Please enjoy.

Judd Lienhard is a rare mix of awesome physique and high level performance. I loved talking to Judd because he has a very thoughtful approach to not only fitness but to life.

Cardio training is so misunderstood. Professional or competitive athletes have tricked us into believing that cardio is better for fat loss than other forms of movement. I'm not saying cardio is bad or shouldn't be done, but it needs to be at the bottom of the tier when you're trying to look good naked. In this episode I give you the nuts and bolts of how to properly use non resistance training activity to your benefit and not to your detriment.
I am not going to bemoan the entirety of modern, digital content. I myself, create and utilize social media and digital outlets to build my career.

Watching what you eat seems to become exponentially harder once Halloween hits, and that added pressure doesn't subside until the New Year. The holidays are festive. There will be more social gatherings and communal fun, and with it, reasons to stuff that face. I do not recommend abstaining from the increased culinary fun, but I also dislike the heightened shame cycle that can come with it. The holiday struggles can be devastatingly painful if you’ve spent nine months monitoring what you’re eating and training with intent. Here, I will provide you with my five most significant tips to help you positively get through the holidays. Here is to a New Year without regrets of overindulgence or lack of visceral fun.

Jay Campbell is a friend of mine and is undoubtedly one of the most prominent voices, if not the most famous, in the hormone world. He wrote the "Testosterone Optimization Therapy Bible," "Testosterone Replacement Therapy Manual," and now he is adding a fantastic new book, "30 Days 2 Shred: Reprogram Your Mind and Metabolism." I've had the luxury of reading the new book, which is fantastic. Jay and I chat about a lot of meathead interests, such as HRT, diet, and training style, but we also get into more significant ideas, such as global health and spirituality. Jay is a thoughtful fellow, and I think you will enjoy his insight.
Here is the new book. https://www.amazon.com/30-Days-Shredz-Reprogram-Metabolism-ebook/dp/B0CG798ZHF/ref=sr_1_2?crid=22D66WQ0H7S7X&keywords=jay+campbell&qid=1699983709&sprefix=jay+campbell%2Caps%2C113&sr=8-2

Who is an expert? This question has never been harder to answer. With very high appeals to authority and very little barrier of entry to the title, information in fitness has become dubious at best. I try to clear up the blurry mess that is modern fitness info and I address the new developments with the poor Liver King.

I am a pretty even-keeled fella. I rarely get too worked on things, but I talk about three things that bother me greatly in today's episode. The fitness industry has tricked you into believing things should or could come quickly, and also, your sense of realistic body image is quite distorted. Lastly, I dive right into a critical issue: steroid use for young people.
I would genuinely love to hear your thoughts on all of this. Hit me on IG or leave a comment below.

I'm sure you're probably tired of me telling you that this is a special episode, but this really was a special episode. Laura Micetich is a certified transformation specialist and a life coach. I've known her for a while as we both used to train at the Mecca in Venice Beach. At six feet tall and being very attractive, she is quite eye-catching. When you see her astounding transformation, it makes her even more hard to forget. Laura and I discuss the root causes of obesity, dating, social bias, weight loss, building muscle, and much more.

My friend Aaron Alexander sat down to chat, and it turned out to be way more substantive than I could've imagined. Aaron is the man behind "The Align Method: 5 Movement Principles for a Stronger Body, Sharper Mind and Stress-Proof Life." I assumed our discussion would be about body mechanics, posture, and mobility, but mainly, we discussed existential conflicts. It is safe to say that most of our physical problems have some relationship with spiritual or mental struggle, and Aaron and I explore this with what I think is a very interesting conversation.

Very smart people in the fitness world are debating the merits between intensity and volume. As with most problems, my answer lies in the middle. I am not a timid fence sitter, I am an old man who's been around the block enough to know that truth lives in the endless shades of grey. My daughter and I break down the value of both high intensity and high volume training, and how you should look to incorporate both.

The problem with changing how you look and feel is that it often creates an antagonistic relationship with food. You need to eat less to lose body fat. This kind of stinks, but it is, unfortunately, true. Food becomes something to dislike when you become conscious of how much and what you are eating. This is very dangerous, and there are ways to have a healthy relationship with food and lose body fat. I break it all down in this episode.

Much of the struggle to get in shape originates from a distorted outlook. Is losing weight or gaining muscle difficult? Of course, it is, but that doesn't make it a burden. It is one of the few things you have COMPLETE CONTROL over, yet we all ignore this. We then exhaust considerable energy trying to control life's myriad erratic and indifferent aspects.

I am often annoyed by the reductionist mindset of modern fitness. If you eat meat, eat nothing but meat. If you eat plants, eat nothing but plants. The same ethos goes for training. People get dogmatic about higher intensity and higher volume, and as with most things in life, there is a sweet middle ground. In today's episode, I explain why and how these two training styles should be symbiotic, not antagonistic.

I distilled everything you need to do to have your best body and mind for summer into one practical program. I call it Sprints, Squats, and Steak. It is pretty nicely based around those three factors with some other helpful details added in. I used myself as the lab rat on this program and have followed it since the beginning of 2023. It is not a great program for an abject beginner. Still, if you've got experience and horsepower, this program will completely revitalize your performance, physique, and psyche.

Hugh Jackman is a beautiful man, and he has a beautiful body. He is five hundred years old and getting ready for Deadpool 3. Apparently, he's eating 8000 calories and training 3 hours a day. I have a real problem with this information, and I will tell you why in this episode.
I came across a young lady looking for a complete overhaul of air travel for "plus-sized" people. Her desires and ideas of being overweight really bothered me, and I devoted this entire episode to unpacking my feelings. I make it clear that I do not want to shame her individually but rather the overall idea of victimhood and entitlement.

Powders, pills, and potions make the fitness industry go around. If you know anything about my philosophy, you know that I am not a fan of supplements in general, and I think they're at the bottom of the fitness hierarchy. That being said, some supplements are definitely worth your money and can help you enhance your nutrition and training.

I've been releasing a series of episodes regarding heavy-weight training, and I want to finish it with this episode that covers relevant details. Today I focus on alternative forms of progression that live outside the amount of weight and the number of repetitions. Weight and reps are the primary forms of progression, and today we discuss pauses, exaggerated range of motion, and prolonged negatives. These tactics can help you continue getting stronger without adding weight to the bar, but make no mistake; subsequently, they will help with that primary progression of overall weight lifted. Let's get some!!!

I don't technically celebrate Lent anymore, but I was raised Catholic, which is part of my identity. I coincidentally arrived at a very confusing and painful point in my life, and I am using these 40 days and 40 nights to lock things down. I want, dare I say need, you to accompany me. I am a bit embarrassed by this episode, as I break down and cry, and it's not subtle. I start talking about something that I haven't talked about at all, even in my private life, and that is the death of my friend Orlando Sanchez. He was famous and well-respected in Grappling, but he had been my friend before he ever tied his belt. I also have been having some aggressive depression and anxiety; frankly, I lost it a little.

Chances are if you don't lift heavy weights, it's because you feel like it's not optimal for you. Chances are, it's the most necessary form of exercise to achieve your fitness goals. This considers that most people have a fat loss at the top of their fitness goals. So if you're tired of spinning your wheels and don't want skinny fat syndrome or perpetual flat butt, then absorb this episode and load up the plates!

I'm sure many of you are making New Year's resolutions, and a good percentage of those resolutions are based on your physique. There's nothing inherently wrong with this practice, but I do think it's shortsighted. The idealized view of yourself already exists and instead of looking for new ways to change yourself, look to find that enhanced person you're hiding inside of you.
Watching what you eat seems to become exponentially harder once Halloween hits, and that added pressure doesn't subside until the New Year. The holidays are festive. There will be more social gatherings, communal fun, and with it, reasons to stuff that face. I do not recommend abstaining from the increased culinary fun, but I also dislike the heightened shame cycle that can come with it. If you’ve spent nine months monitoring what you’re eating and training with intent, the holiday struggles can be devastatingly painful. Here I will provide you with my five biggest tips to help you positively get through the holidays. Here is to a New Year without regrets of overindulgence or lack of visceral fun.

A never-ending stream of podcasts will tell you how to lift and eat. Many of these podcasts are very good. The reality of fitness content is that it is mainly a distraction and not a source of education. There is a massive disconnect between most content and actual progress.

Most people don't even understand the most crucial aspect of fitness, strength. Avoiding competency in strength in hopes of not being "bulky" is a common mistake. People's aversion to this abstract bulkiness subsequently guarantees their perpetual lack of leanness and muscularity.
In this podcast, I explain strength and how to achieve it effectively and efficiently. YEAH BUDDY!!

We've all worked to monitor what we eat. We regulate how much and what types of food we intake because we don't want to overload the system. The same principles apply to our social, professional, and love life, yet we never seem to accept them. The man who overpacks his camel will get stranded in the desert.
It's a question and answers session on the new Mikey LIkes You, and I think it might be my best.

There are many reasons for people's lack of results. Most of these reasons are psychological or intellectual. You either have something in your mind preventing you from going hard, or you have taken information forcing you to go hard in all the wrong ways. I get to the center of this problem and break down what we can do about it.
It's that session of question and answer that I promised you. Today we broach training periodization, eating, and training when on the road, shoulder injuries, the barbell bench press, my move to Texas, correcting poor posture, and pumps for your manhood. Yes, that's exactly what I mean.

I didn't want to do an episode about my problems. I hope I have succeeded. I am very depressed right now, and I'm having trouble doing much of anything. I usually use broadcasting as an escape, and at the risk of sounding airheaded, the universe guided me to dive right into my despondency. Many of you feel like I do, and I am rather disgusted by the vile pseudo-alpha-male culture that tries to present itself as invulnerable. I lack the motivation to brush my teeth, let alone build my "Instagram-ready fantasy life." So I will talk about all this in the new episode.

I have to start off by saying sorry. Towards the end of the episode, there are some audio problems and it's all my fault. I used the lapel mic and got animated, at which point it wrapped up in my clothes. I edited out most of it but sorry nonetheless. Instant gratification has been the bane of my entire existence. Addiction, fat loss, muscle building, relationships, etc have all been ruined by my need for things to give me an immediate return on investment.
It isn't reassuring to admit this, but preparation and planning with food are probably more important than any other aspect of physique transformation. Why is it disappointing? Because it sucks, and it is a pain in the keister, and we have lives that make it difficult. With that being said, here are some tips to make it easier, tastier, and more realistic for those of us with demanding personal and professional lives.
The title isn't just stupid bait. I get angry about meaningless crap and also very in-depth and serious about weightier issues. I asked my patrons for questions and I got some great ones. We talk about calories deficits, keto fat numbers, deadlift form, straps, gloves, grips, witchcraft, and candlewax on the nipples. It was a really great session and I'm happy. Hope you are too.

Lyle McDonald's series on Muscular Failure
https://bodyrecomposition.com/trainin...
Weight training and diet are king and queen when it comes to looking amazing. Well, who is the prince and who is the neglected duke that everyone banishes to some little island? Cardio good or bad and when is it each? I break down the energy systems and how to fuel them in order to achieve your goals and how not to get in their way.
I asked for questions and I got some darn good ones. I dive into altitude training, the good and the bad of "Body Positivity," de-load weeks, what to do about training when ill, how to eat when you have a demanding job, and much more. Subscribe and like, please. It makes a big difference.

Ok, I don't necessarily think I was a hypocrite, but I'm guilty of not practicing what I preach. Well, that's the definition of being a hypocrite, so I'm guilty as charged. I frequently talk about not overtraining, considering your health before aesthetics, and cardio should be either not done or done responsibly. I then went and broke all my own rules. I paid the price, and now I'm putting the pieces back together and correcting the situation. Do you feel you've never been more disciplined and consistent, yet you're still not getting results? Maybe you're in the same position as me. Let's get into it.
I like Vinnie. A brilliant and thoughtful guy, Vinnie created the #NSNG (no sugar, no grains) revolution that has helped countless people find better health and fitness. He also has an excellent new documentary called "Beyond Impossible" available on Amazon Prime. This documentary comes very highly recommended from yours truly, and it explores the dishonesty and corruption within the world of plant-based nutrition.
Last episode I promised that my wife, Bianca Kajlich, would come on and discuss how she punctured the long-held beliefs of female fitness to achieve her best health ever. I make good on that promise and my wife dives right into eating meat, lifting heavy, and NOT BEING BULKY!!! Forget your salads and cardio and finally see the results you're looking for. I really liked this conversation and I think you will too. Her new site www.allwelcomehere.com is waiting for you folks.
I see and hear things that I disagree with. I also see and hear things that frustrate me. So today, I wanted to dive right into those issues and ideas. I get into simplifying training and nutrition, proper chest training, real female training, and the disgusting dishonesty in female fitness media.
It is an excellent session of questions and answers today on "Mikey Likes You." We get into calorie set points, what it means to have a "clean diet," sustainable fat loss, rest intervals, intensity vs. volume, and the value of sandals.

There is so much information on training out there. There are only three types of training that you should concern yourself with if you want to look and feel better. These three types are high volume, high intensity, and absolute strength training. High volume training is lots of work done at a moderate level of intensity, and it serves you well for hypertrophy (muscle gain). High-intensity training is a medium or low amount of work done at extreme levels of intensity (muscular failure and beyond.) Strength training or training for maximal strength gain is often a varied level of amount of work done with extremely low reps. Another aspect of the three varieties that differentiates them is the rest between sets. With high volume, you want to use shorter rest periods as trauma, and lactic acid buildup in the muscles you're targeting is more important than performance. With strength training, rest is very long between sets because you want to be able to perform highly, and that is all. You would periodize all three styles into your routine in a perfect world, but you should make one style a majority piece that best suits your goals.

Yes sir! It's the new episode of "Mikey Likes You!" I call this that's my shit episode because I address things that I personally feel are important. These aren't necessarily foundational pillars but things that I've found a lot of people tend to get confused by. For instance, "what is TRT?" I get into TRT and what it is, how it's different from the common idea of "Steroids," and how it should or shouldn't be used. I also talk about staying on a program, training to failure, exercise form and much more. Please give it a listen, and if you haven't already, like and subscribe. Hit that bell foo!

I am always a bit hesitant to talk about mental health, because I am a dummy. In my opinion, there are far too many people giving advice and guidance in the world of mental health, that shouldn't be. I am certainly someone who has and does suffer. Depression and addiction are part of my fabric. It is this familiarity that inspires me to do these episodes. I am scared that most of us are all too familiar with despondency and it should be our exception, not our norm.

Funk Roberts is an awesome fellow. At age 52, Funk looks better than most of us could only dream of looking at any age. Of course there is discipline and hard work that leads to his amazing physique, but to me, the most impressive aspect of his success is his attitude. He's very well respected in the world of fitness and sports conditioning and he is an invariably authentic and positive force of energy. We chop it up about training as we age, self respect, addiction, recovery, long term health and why Canadians are so darn nice. I really liked this conversation and I hope you will too.

Everybody loves my wife. Judging by the numbers and comments, most listeners like her more than me. I'm ok with that because I am going to use her for my own selfish gains.

I truly love her and we have a very special connection. I hope it shows to you the listener.

In the words of the great Victor Fuentes (Google his 911 call) "too much information." There is just too much gosh darn information out there. That's why I wanted to devote this episode to giving you a breakdown of what you should and shouldn't focus on. There is a handful of very important ideas that will greatly impact your health and physique. There are way more irrelevant ideas that will just stress you out and drain your motivation. Take a listen and hopefully we can make love later. Wait...I meant chat about it. Yeah, that's what I meant.

Just some of the topics we hit on...Trying to lose fat when you're naturally skinny, not seeing eye to eye with your partner when it comes to eating, the amount and frequency of weight training for your goals, walking for cardio, what to do when you plateau, meal replacement shakes, workout music, dick size (yes for reals), trouble with pull ups and much more.

Bianca Kajlich is a superb actress and an eye catching beauty. She is also the luckiest person on earth because she is my wife. Bianca and I discuss her new found love and excitement for weight training, and its many benefits. She gives a very thoughtful breakdown of her past hesitance to engage in "bodybuilding" style training and her attachment too many common misconceptions about nutrition. She also eloquently explains the positive emotional effects of this new approach to the lifting and eating. In a little under a month, my wife has achieved amazing results and transformed her outlook on food. Bikini Olympia Champion Janet Layug (@janetlayug) built her programming and Bianca sought out lots of thought provoking information regarding diet. She has leaned heavily into animal based eating and to even her surprise, loved the results. This is one of, if not the best podcasts I've done under the Mikey Likes You banner. My wife is a special person and if you listen, I think you'll agree.

How to begin with weight training, the nuts and bolts of fat loss, info on SARMS, German Volume Training, gaining muscle without getting fat, how my training has changed as I've aged, how I remain motivated to train hard now that I'm an old fuck, weighing food raw or cooked, plant based protein and much more.

I've known Jay Campbell a long time. He is a very good man. He is well known as an expert in Testosterone and Hormone Optimization. In the last few years he has become an actual spiritual icon for me and many others. I could talk to Jay about sets and reps for hours, but we decided to discuss society and our collective consciousness instead. I really recommend listening and go to https://jayccampbell.com and check out all his amazing info and books. I loved "The Metabolic Blowtorch." Also take a look into what he has to say about spirituality. There is way too much info out there hoping to upset us. It's very marketable these days. Why not invest the effort into someone trying to uplift and heal. He has a hair and cosmetic company https://aseircustom.com and they make the best products on earth. If you put in the code "MikeC" you can save 15%. His hair regrowth stuff is better than anything else.

I definitely went in an unexpected direction this week. I recently realized my own mortality in a vivid dream. I went nuts and started thinking about the mass suffering and the horrible vitriolic slander we've been throwing at each other. Modern times have created a world that leaves us empty and yearning for purpose. It seems like when we try and find it, people start criticizing. I don't know shit about shit, but hopefully you can relate to some of the things I say in this pod

There are small mistakes and minor concerns that Im seeing people struggle with, and I wanted to take an episode to address them.

Sal from Mindpump @mindpumpsal chats with me about his new book, "The Resistance Training Revolution." If you're familiar with my view or this podcast, you know that I am part of this revolution. I want everyone to understand the importance of weight training, and the misconceptions of cardio. Don't be scared of the weight room. You will not be a hulking bodybuilder or a vulgar, veiny animal. You will get lean and sculpted and you will continue to be disappointed with how you look and feel if you rely on cardio for your training. Listen and enjoy.

I've blathered on over and over about the importance of diet and weight training. These two factors are ALL you need to look better and improve markers of health. That doesn't mean that you can't do more. I know that many of you are still buying into the adage of cardio being better for your health but oh well. It isn't. It can be a useful adjust to training if you are wise and precise. This episode I give you a breakdown on how to be just that. The best way to implement cardio training for fat loss and health. How much, how long, how hard!

I said, "hey give me your questions." You all went, "totally." So I collected all of those questions and tried my best to answer them. This was the best collection of questions that you've sent in. Lots of really interesting and useful stuff. Motivation, inspiration, muscle gain, fat loss, and where to begin if you're a total beginner. Take a listen, and subscribe. It's lovely.

There are plenty of mistakes made when it comes to getting leaner. As many misconceptions as there are with building muscle, there is considerably more with proper dieting. I dive into the major myths about weight loss and fat loss, and also the straight truth that lives behind them. Cardio, weight training, diet, lifestyle stuff...its all here baby.

Don't tolerate anything less than your standard. Our life gets molded by what we tolerate. Maybe it's little stuff and maybe its major issues, but you shouldn't be forced to tolerate mediocrity. The standards are getting lower and we must fight it. Look at Michelle Pfeiffer as Catwoman https://youtu.be/FaWwG41_A9k. This was the standard for an action star in the mid 90's. That shit is awesome. I get a little edgy on this episode and I don't mean to sound condescending. I just want us all to push forward with a standard that we deserve.

Ive talked at length about exercise selection and amount. This podcast is about exercise performance or form. It is the most important factor when it comes to training content. Having fundamentally sound movement patterns means that you're actually doing the exercise, as opposed to demonstrating something. Take a listen, I hope you like it.

So I went on my insta. I asked you to provide me questions. You guys gave me questions. Now I answer them on this podcast. How long to rest between sets, how to prep for being a fireman, how to construct a 5 x 5 program, movie recommendations, balancing weight training and jiu jitsu, how to grow them legs and much more.

I really want you to make the change, if you want to make the change. Constructing a training plan is not easy. The waterfall of misleading info that splashes across your eyes and ears is endless. I try my best to give you the tools to put together your training plan to make a real change, and get the results you've been searching for.

All the so called "experts" have sold you marketable fitness propaganda for far too long. "If I blame carbs, insulin, sugar, gluten... people will buy my books." You end up paying the price financially and emotionally. All these myths have become true through repetition, and you end up confused. I break down reality and myth when it comes to eating for fat loss. I won't make any claim that I can't back up, and I am more then willing to eat crow if someone can refute these claims. Be warned, "I did this and lost weight," is not a viable appeal to the veracity of my claims.

Through 6 weeks of my patreon service, I've had an increased ability to listen to the listeners. Ive gathered up the most common points of misunderstanding, and consistent areas of confusion. On todays episode I try to tackle these issues as best I can, in order to best help. Fat loss, performance and it's relationship to appearance, obsession with weight on the scale, consistency, overcomplicating of training and nutrition plus some more stuff.

I didn't intend on this being an embarrassing episode. It just ended up that way. A lot of folks have asked about motivation. So I intended to discuss motivation on this episode. As I got into it, I started to get emotional, while recognizing my limiting beliefs and my shameful past. So...Good times

A few Patreon members made it clear, they wanted more insight into my actual routine. I was reluctant, because I don't want to give anybody the idea of copying my workouts or eating. Unless you're ready to do so, in which case, you probably wouldn't need my advice anyway. I detail my current eating and training, and my goals for my birthday this March.

I am not anti- cardio. I believe it is tremendously misunderstood. If you want to compete in most sports, then you should be doing lots of it. If you want to look good naked then you probably shouldn't. When you do decide to do it, you should do it right. I get right down to the nitty gritty about aerobic vs anaerobic, heart rate zones, high intensity training and much more on this new episode.

I met Steve Zim about a decade ago, when he began training my wife at his Culver City Gym, A Tighter U. I quickly learned why movie studios and professional athletes trust him to create the bodies worthy of big paychecks. Steve is unbelievable smart and practical with his methods, and he is one of the kindest people in the fitness industry. He now has a online portal to train you from home with any equipment, including zero equipment. www.atumobile.com

I have been training my wife for five weeks. I don't want to brag, but the results have been stellar. I have zero problems promoting my skills, but my wife, Bianca Kajlich, does. She has been very resistant to allowing me to be her trainer. She finally relented, and she has been startled at how effective three short workouts a week with some practical nutrition can be. Bianca and I discuss our journey along with other physical, emotional, and spiritual trials.

Jason Ellis is one of my closest friends. He is also one of the greatest radio performers ever. With that in mind, It's strange that Sirius Xm would cancel his show unexpectedly. Being a special and resilient fellow, Jason is ready to grow bigger and stronger in the face of this challenge. This is a man who has beaten the odds with courage, grit and a shit load of crazy. Please listen to our conversation about dealing with trauma, insecurity, faking it till you make, and recognizing love. This is a truly special episode.

Regardless of who you are and where you may be, the lockdown sucks. Now it's varying levels of suck, but it's suck nonetheless. Over the last 8 months I have made radical changes in my life and I assume most of you have too. This episode chronicles the practices that I totally think help me during the lockdown, and the ones that absolutely harmed me. Let's do it.

I go back to the well of great questions that you all send in. Plus, I get a tough hitting interview with my six-year-old daughter, Magnolia. A lot of exciting questions are asked of my daughter and me. I think we both do a great job of answering them. Topics include Testosterone replacement, training through injuries, calorie deficits, overhead pressing, motivation, finding romance, good moods, and much more.

Oh, man. The nutritional supplement industry is a crazy one. Magazines, websites, and IG accounts are always trying to sell you on the newest pill or powder, that's purportedly the missing element in your health journey. The truth is, it's all bullshit. There are compelling products that can help you, and there is a minimal amount of items that can be considered essential. This episode is devoted to clearing up the substantial confusion surrounding supplements and hopefully aids you to make the right decisions.

I try to be as open as I can to help people who struggle with similar issues. I haven't dealt with anxiety much in my life, but my amazing wife, Bianca, has a long history with it. She thought it would be useful to spend an episode discussing how anxiety has harmed her and how she has successfully and unsuccessfully dealt with it. Because we are husband and wife, we have meaningless arguments and quarrels as well. It turned out to be a delightful conversation, and I think you'll see why I love her so much.

I am a drug addict and alcoholic. I've always been reluctant to directly create content based on addiction and recovery, but I'm happy to talk about it if someone inquires. Judging by my DM's and emails, A LOT of people are struggling with addiction in some form. This episode is simply my experience and understanding of recovery and addiction. I don't have the answer or secret solution to anything, let alone addiction. What I do have, is a nice collection of successes and failures that can hopefully shed light on the subject. I will be clean 18 years in a matter of weeks. I am a dipshit. If I can do it, so can you. Cheers.

Dr. Drew Pinsky has been my professional partner on the radio and television for a long time. Through our professional partnership we've developed a beautiful friendship. Drew and I get right into Covid talk and I sincerely feel its a different conversation than the one you're commonly hearing. Drew is not only a board certified MD, he's also a member of the media. Because of this, he has some of the most insightful views on how this pandemic is being handled. This is not a divisive, agenda driven hit piece. That's the last thing anybody needs. This is a thoughtful investigation of the radical experience we've all been having for the last six months. We also talk about how he is old and weak. Yeah Buddy!!!!

So if you listened to the last episode with Ryan Bader, you may have heard me talk about the 12-week program I am doing. It is from the "Maximus Body" by Bobby Maximus (aka Rob MacDonald). The book is fantastic and I recommend it to you all. There is a six month program that is very comprehensive and well programmed. There is also a 12 week program that is gnarly!!!! I chose the latter. Its 6 days a week, two workouts a day, for 12 weeks. More than anything, it asks you to really get to know yourself. Maximus, much to my surprise, offered to personally guide me through the program. I'm overwhelmed by how generous and helpful he's being and I definitely don't take it for granted. Here is check in podcast number one of my journey, where Maximus himself gives me some guidance and motivation.

I get to some really good Q and A out of the way in the beginning. The topics are how to manage fat and calories with a high protein diet, the best time of day to workout and what is my COMPLETE workout routine during the lockdown. Then I dive into a very interesting and entertaining interview with my friend Jason "Mayhem" Miller. He's a former world class MMA fighter who fought for PRIDE, Dream and The UFC. He's also about 18 months sober and successfully putting his life back together after a particularly tough stretch.

He wants to get in shape but he really does not know what in the hell to do about it. I felt like he was in a position that a lot of listeners are in, so I brought him on and gave him a comprehensive plan of attack.

So I'm living that lockdown life just like the rest of you, and I got this lady who lives with me. She's an actress and she's amazing. Her name is Bianca Kajlich. Oh yeah, she's my wife. She sits down to do this pod with me, kind of as a favor. It turned out to be one of the best pieces of broadcasting I've ever been a part of. My wife and I field questions and dive into our mutual troubles with intimacy, putting pieces back together after a relationship ends, weird defense mechanisms and a better term for cunnilingus than cunnilingus. I'm really in love with my wife and if you listen to this you'll see why. She is vulnerable and smart and pretty and honest and blah blah blah.
