Key Takeaway

True fitness isn't about making your body your life—it's about using fitness to enhance every part of your life. The sweet spot? Being strong enough to do what matters, moving well enough to play and have fun, and maintaining a healthy body composition (11-18% body fat for men, low 20s for women) without obsession. If you can't take a week off training without it messing with your head, fitness has become your identity rather than a tool for living better.

Episode Overview

This episode explores what sustainable, healthy fitness really looks like. The hosts discuss how their relationships with training and nutrition have evolved from performance-driven or aesthetic-obsessed approaches to viewing fitness as a tool that enhances quality of life without consuming it. They outline five key components of true fitness and emphasize the importance of strength, mobility, and balance over extreme body composition goals.

Main Insights

Fitness Should Enhance Your Life, Not Become It

The healthiest relationship with fitness is when it improves every area of your life—work performance, relationships, mental health, energy, sleep—without consuming all your time and mental energy. If fitness becomes your life rather than a life enhancer, you've crossed into unhealthy obsession. The test: Can you modify your training when life demands it, or does missing a workout derail you emotionally?

The Evolution from Performance Metrics to Quality of Life

Many fitness enthusiasts start with rigid, metric-driven goals (aesthetics, PRs, competition performance) but eventually realize this creates an all-consuming, stressful relationship with training. The mature approach focuses on maintaining strength, mobility, and health that serves your actual lifestyle needs—not chasing numbers that require sacrifice of other life priorities.

Strength Matters More Than You Think (But There's a Point of Diminishing Returns)

Strength is crucial because frailty underlies many health problems we associate with aging, including cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. However, there's a threshold where pursuing additional strength creates more risk and sacrifice than benefit. For most people, being strong enough to handle life's physical demands—not setting PRs—is the goal worth maintaining long-term.

Real Fitness Balance Isn't Equal Parts—It's Strategic Modulation

Balance doesn't mean spending equal time on every fitness component. It means adapting your training and nutrition to what's happening in your life. During stressful periods, maybe you prioritize walks and mobility over heavy lifting. On high-energy days, you train intensely. You enjoy social meals without obsessive macro counting, then return to mindful eating the next day.

Healthy Body Composition Is a Range, Not a Single Number

Sustainable fitness means allowing natural fluctuation in body composition (roughly 11-17% body fat for men, low-to-mid 20s for women) rather than maintaining stage-ready leanness year-round. The person who looks extremely shredded on the beach typically has an unhealthy, all-consuming relationship with fitness. General muscularity and leanness—not magazine-cover conditioning—is what health actually looks like.

Notable Quotes

"There really isn't an area of your life that proper fitness wouldn't improve. Like, think of your life and think of all the areas of your life that are important to you. Uh, it could be your work. Uh, it could be your family life. It could be as a husband or a father, a mother, uh, or a wife. It could be relationships with other people. Um it could be uh things like mental health, depression, anxiety, could be energy, libido, sleep. Like there isn't an aspect of your life that you won't have a better experience with if your fitness isn't better."

Sal

"Whatever the thing is that is your top priority, whether it's being a father, a husband, uh your job and profession, your sport, the whatever it is that you care most about is, you know, would the healthier version of you enjoy that or be better at that?"

Sal

"I give better meetings. I give better sales trainings. I'm a better entrepreneur. Because that's something that was really important to him. And what he noticed was when he took time away from work to improve his health, he actually got better at that thing."

Sal

"If that person can't take a week off of training and it not mess with them then it is become that it's become that and I think a lot"

Adam

"That person doesn't have in a a relationship with fitness that improves the quality of life. That person's life is fitness and the gym. And I'm going to tell you right now, it's not worth it's not worth it. It's actually a very unhappy place."

Sal

Action Items

Suggested exercises inspired by the conversation.

  • 1
    Audit Your Fitness Relationship

    Ask yourself: Does my current fitness routine enhance my most important life priorities (relationships, work, parenting), or does it compete with them? If you can't take a week off training without anxiety, or if you sacrifice important life events to maintain your routine, it's time to reframe fitness as a tool rather than an identity.

  • 2
    Adopt Context-Driven Training

    Instead of following a rigid program regardless of life circumstances, match your training to your current state. Feeling stressed and tight? Do mobility and stretching. Well-rested and energized? Go hard in the gym. Busy week with family commitments? Take walks while listening to audiobooks. This flexible approach maintains consistency without creating life conflict.

  • 3
    Set Strength Maintenance Goals, Not Endless PRs

    Once you've built a solid strength base (for example, if you've reached a 400+ lb squat or 500+ lb deadlift), shift from constantly chasing new PRs to maintaining functional strength levels that serve your life without excessive injury risk. Identify the strength threshold that serves your lifestyle, then focus on keeping it rather than endlessly adding weight.

  • 4
    Practice Strategic Indulgence with Mindful Recovery

    Allow yourself enjoyable meals and social drinking on occasions that matter (date nights, celebrations, time with friends), but balance them with awareness. If you overconsumed alcohol calories at dinner, take a walk afterward and be mindful of protein intake the next day. This prevents the all-or-nothing mentality where one indulgence becomes a weekend-long binge.

And and I think that identity shift And and I think that identity shift And and I think that identity shift leaving sports and leaving that um has leaving sports and leaving that um has leaving sports and leaving that um has really you know been a hard transition really you know been a hard transition really you know been a hard transition for me to just lift because I'm just for me to just lift because I'm just for me to just lift because I'm just trying to enhance my everyday life you trying to enhance my everyday life you trying to enhance my everyday life you know and like know and like know and like >> uh then sitting a lot has been really >> uh then sitting a lot has been really >> uh then sitting a lot has been really tough for me to like you know reconcile tough for me to like you know reconcile tough for me to like you know reconcile with like I used to be like I'm so with like I used to be like I'm so with like I used to be like I'm so active and I stand all the time and I'm active and I stand all the time and I'm active and I stand all the time and I'm moving and uh so now I like I I moving and uh so now I like I I moving and uh so now I like I I literally use fitness in like little literally use fitness in like little literally use fitness in like little spurts and I'm like this is going to spurts and I'm like this is going to spurts and I'm like this is going to enhance me. I'm going to get strong. Um, enhance me. I'm going to get strong. Um, enhance me. I'm going to get strong. Um, but but really I'm trying to like lift but but really I'm trying to like lift but but really I'm trying to like lift my mood. I'm trying to like, you know, my mood. I'm trying to like, you know, my mood. I'm trying to like, you know, boost my cognitive ability. I'm try it's boost my cognitive ability. I'm try it's boost my cognitive ability. I'm try it's like such a different completely like such a different completely like such a different completely different uh mentality I have. And it's different uh mentality I have.

What's going to, you know, my sleep? What's going to, you know, my sleep? What's going to, you know, make me more uh less moody, you know, make me more uh less moody, you know, make me more uh less moody, you know, around my kids or whatever. And so it's around my kids or whatever. And so it's around my kids or whatever. And so it's really like really like really like >> uh a completely different mentality than >> uh a completely different mentality than >> uh a completely different mentality than I had before. Would you say there's more I had before. Would you say there's more I had before. Would you say there's more or less structure to it? And is it more or less structure to it? And is it more or less structure to it? And is it more of an eb and flow to your lifestyle now? of an eb and flow to your lifestyle now? of an eb and flow to your lifestyle now? Like is it would you say it's like Like is it would you say it's like Like is it would you say it's like really inconsistent even like how you really inconsistent even like how you really inconsistent even like how you how you work out and train and every how you work out and train and every how you work out and train and every diet and all the things like and where I diet and all the things like and where I diet and all the things like and where I imagine if you were uh early days imagine if you were uh early days imagine if you were uh early days performance it was probably very focused performance it was probably very focused performance it was probably very focused and if you're going after metrics it's and if you're going after metrics it's and if you're going after metrics it's very very very >> consistent and so >> consistent and so >> consistent and so >> does it look consistent now or does it >> does it look consistent now or does it >> does it look consistent now or does it look very inconsistent right now and look very inconsistent right now and look very inconsistent right now and what what is that what does that look what what is that what does that look what what is that what does that look like in comparison? Yeah. I guess the like in comparison? Yeah. I guess the like in comparison? Yeah. I guess the biggest um if I go back and look at that biggest um if I go back and look at that biggest um if I go back and look at that series I did, you know, when I was series I did, you know, when I was series I did, you know, when I was trying to get that red press, like trying to get that red press, like trying to get that red press, like brought me back in the mentality I used brought me back in the mentality I used brought me back in the mentality I used to have. to have. to have. >> Sure. >> Sure. >> Sure. >> And so it was like it was a very stark >> And so it was like it was a very stark >> And so it was like it was a very stark contrast for me and it was like very contrast for me and it was like very contrast for me and it was like very structured, very much on top of my head structured, very much on top of my head structured, very much on top of my head constantly. So it was it was all constantly. So it was it was all constantly. So it was it was all consuming. And so like your first point consuming. And so like your first point consuming. And so like your first point with this, it doesn't become your life. with this, it doesn't become your life. with this, it doesn't become your life. Like that was my life. Like my identity, Like that was my life. Like my identity, Like that was my life. Like my identity, everything I was pouring in was like my everything I was pouring in was like my everything I was pouring in was like my physicality and my strength. And like I physicality and my strength. And like I physicality and my strength. And like I was always thinking about how to improve was always thinking about how to improve was always thinking about how to improve that. So to kind of, you know, put that that. So to kind of, you know, put that that. So to kind of, you know, put that on the on the back burner and think on the on the back burner and think on the on the back burner and think about the rest of life and like all about the rest of life and like all about the rest of life and like all these other moving parts and, these other moving parts and, these other moving parts and, >> you know. Yeah. So it's it's it's >> you know. Yeah. So it's it's it's >> you know. Yeah. So it's it's it's inconsistent, but it's I try to keep it inconsistent, but it's I try to keep it inconsistent, but it's I try to keep it in there because it makes me feel good in there because it makes me feel good in there because it makes me feel good and like I know the value of it uh and and like I know the value of it uh and and like I know the value of it uh and what it does and how it translates to what it does and how it translates to what it does and how it translates to everything else now. Uh so yeah, but I everything else now. Uh so yeah, but I everything else now. Uh so yeah, but I it's definitely like an undulating it's definitely like an undulating it's definitely like an undulating thing. Like I'm like I haven't been in a thing. Like I'm like I haven't been in a thing. Like I'm like I haven't been in a while. Then I'll go through runs and while. Then I'll go through runs and while. Then I'll go through runs and then I'll come back and and kind of, you then I'll come back and and kind of, you then I'll come back and and kind of, you know, coast a bit. And so the 15 minute know, coast a bit. And so the 15 minute know, coast a bit. And so the 15 minute kind of style I'll do for a while and kind of style I'll do for a while and kind of style I'll do for a while and then sometimes I'll go like two hours. then sometimes I'll go like two hours. then sometimes I'll go like two hours. You know, it just depends like more on You know, it just depends like more on You know, it just depends like more on my mood and how I'm feeling. my mood and how I'm feeling. my mood and how I'm feeling. >> Adam, yours looks so different from when >> Adam, yours looks so different from when >> Adam, yours looks so different from when I first met you.

Yeah. Um I mean, I can identify a lot with what Justin's saying. The only lot with what Justin's saying. The only lot with what Justin's saying. The only difference is that he was so performance difference is that he was so performance difference is that he was so performance metric driven. I was so aesthetic driven metric driven. I was so aesthetic driven metric driven. I was so aesthetic driven but very similar bodybuilder. Yeah. Like but very similar bodybuilder. Yeah. Like but very similar bodybuilder. Yeah. Like if I'm training I was very all or if I'm training I was very all or if I'm training I was very all or nothing and it was all to improve my nothing and it was all to improve my nothing and it was all to improve my physique. It was like I'm there was no physique. It was like I'm there was no physique. It was like I'm there was no other every once in a while I went other every once in a while I went other every once in a while I went through kicks when I was playing through kicks when I was playing through kicks when I was playing basketball like that where I'd want a basketball like that where I'd want a basketball like that where I'd want a little bit of performance stuff. But little bit of performance stuff. But little bit of performance stuff. But >> generally speaking for most of my >> generally speaking for most of my >> generally speaking for most of my training career uh if I was in the gym I training career uh if I was in the gym I training career uh if I was in the gym I am trying to change my body. I am body am trying to change my body. I am body am trying to change my body. I am body composition focused and everything from composition focused and everything from composition focused and everything from my diet to my training uh and to my my diet to my training uh and to my my diet to my training uh and to my mindset all the time like he said. So mindset all the time like he said. So mindset all the time like he said. So very very relatable to what Justin is very very relatable to what Justin is very very relatable to what Justin is saying right now was my mindset just it saying right now was my mindset just it saying right now was my mindset just it was purely around a second. Now it's was purely around a second. Now it's was purely around a second. Now it's really really really different. Um I've really really really different. Um I've really really really different. Um I've completely let go of that and I don't completely let go of that and I don't completely let go of that and I don't mean that but like I've just like let mean that but like I've just like let mean that but like I've just like let myself go and I'm like way out of shape myself go and I'm like way out of shape myself go and I'm like way out of shape but but but >> attachment. >> attachment. >> attachment. >> Yeah. I've really accepted something >> Yeah. I've really accepted something >> Yeah. I've really accepted something that I think I think it's important that I think I think it's important that I think I think it's important because I think this is something we because I think this is something we because I think this is something we preach on the podcast quite a bit of preach on the podcast quite a bit of preach on the podcast quite a bit of this, you know, a healthy a healthy male this, you know, a healthy a healthy male this, you know, a healthy a healthy male body is somewhere between, you know, 11 body is somewhere between, you know, 11 body is somewhere between, you know, 11 to 18%. And and and kind of an eb and to 18%. And and and kind of an eb and to 18%. And and and kind of an eb and flow in that. And I think I really allow flow in that. And I think I really allow flow in that. And I think I really allow that to happen a lot right now. I could that to happen a lot right now. I could that to happen a lot right now. I could there's many times in just the last year there's many times in just the last year there's many times in just the last year where I was probably down to 11 and then where I was probably down to 11 and then where I was probably down to 11 and then there's been times where I've probably there's been times where I've probably there's been times where I've probably peaked at probably maybe not 18, maybe peaked at probably maybe not 18, maybe peaked at probably maybe not 18, maybe 17. So, I probably bounce between 11 and 17. So, I probably bounce between 11 and 17. So, I probably bounce between 11 and 17, which a pretty good swing, but it's 17, which a pretty good swing, but it's 17, which a pretty good swing, but it's never drastic. I never go from 11 to 17 never drastic. I never go from 11 to 17 never drastic. I never go from 11 to 17 overnight. It's kind of like it slowly overnight. It's kind of like it slowly overnight. It's kind of like it slowly might creep there because there I've got might creep there because there I've got might creep there because there I've got a lot of other things that are going on a lot of other things that are going on a lot of other things that are going on in my life and then I can then I start in my life and then I can then I start in my life and then I can then I start to bring it back down, but it's not the to bring it back down, but it's not the to bring it back down, but it's not the driver. Um, I really look at uh our driver. Um, I really look at uh our driver. Um, I really look at uh our activity through the week. Like, for activity through the week. Like, for activity through the week. Like, for example, this weekend, um, I didn't do example, this weekend, um, I didn't do example, this weekend, um, I didn't do any sort of training this weekend. Uh, any sort of training this weekend. Uh, any sort of training this weekend. Uh, but I swam and was out in the sun and I but I swam and was out in the sun and I but I swam and was out in the sun and I saunaed and I did and so and I went for saunaed and I did and so and I went for saunaed and I did and so and I went for a really nice walk with my wife at the a really nice walk with my wife at the a really nice walk with my wife at the beach and like so that I count that now beach and like so that I count that now beach and like so that I count that now like I never used to think of that as like I never used to think of that as like I never used to think of that as like cuz it wasn't a workout. like cuz it wasn't a workout. like cuz it wasn't a workout. >> Yeah. It's not it's not moving my that >> Yeah. It's not it's not moving my that >> Yeah. It's not it's not moving my that make my chest look better. You know what make my chest look better. You know what make my chest look better. You know what I'm saying? So, so to me that would I'm saying? So, so to me that would I'm saying? So, so to me that would never check a box of I'm doing something never check a box of I'm doing something never check a box of I'm doing something to be healthier. But in fact, uh I would to be healthier. But in fact, uh I would to be healthier. But in fact, uh I would argue that it sometimes that's more argue that it sometimes that's more argue that it sometimes that's more important to my health journey. getting important to my health journey. getting important to my health journey. getting sun like that, taking a good walk, sun like that, taking a good walk, sun like that, taking a good walk, connecting with my wife.

I I I want to share a little bit >> Yeah. I I I want to share a little bit >> Yeah. I I I want to share a little bit about uh what I'm going through with a about uh what I'm going through with a about uh what I'm going through with a client of mine right now. Uh personal client of mine right now. Uh personal client of mine right now. Uh personal client that I'm helping with reverse client that I'm helping with reverse client that I'm helping with reverse dieting. In fact, uh their calories dieting. In fact, uh their calories dieting. In fact, uh their calories [snorts] [snorts] [snorts] were similar to where yours are at. and were similar to where yours are at. and were similar to where yours are at. and uh she's experienced the same thing that uh she's experienced the same thing that uh she's experienced the same thing that you did when you increased the 1900 you did when you increased the 1900 you did when you increased the 1900 which is this you know yeah I got which is this you know yeah I got which is this you know yeah I got stronger and some of these things these stronger and some of these things these stronger and some of these things these but I also feel like I just put body fat but I also feel like I just put body fat but I also feel like I just put body fat on too I don't feel like I put a lot of on too I don't feel like I put a lot of on too I don't feel like I put a lot of muscle on and so what will happen and muscle on and so what will happen and muscle on and so what will happen and what I've explained to her is that we what I've explained to her is that we what I've explained to her is that we have to get really we have to get have to get really we have to get have to get really we have to get healthy first before our body will start healthy first before our body will start healthy first before our body will start to respond and build muscle the muscle to respond and build muscle the muscle to respond and build muscle the muscle thing kind of comes first what we'll thing kind of comes first what we'll thing kind of comes first what we'll feel what you'll feel is and in other feel what you'll feel is and in other feel what you'll feel is and in other words your body needed those calories so words your body needed those calories so words your body needed those calories so bad it's just like okay we're on the bad it's just like okay we're on the bad it's just like okay we're on the right track of getting healthier. The right track of getting healthier. The right track of getting healthier. The first response that we know we're first response that we know we're first response that we know we're getting healthier is we see the strength getting healthier is we see the strength getting healthier is we see the strength go up in the gym. It's like, oh wow, go up in the gym. It's like, oh wow, go up in the gym. It's like, oh wow, we're getting stronger. But it doesn't we're getting stronger. But it doesn't we're getting stronger. But it doesn't all it doesn't line up right away like, all it doesn't line up right away like, all it doesn't line up right away like, oh, I'm stronger, therefore I should be oh, I'm stronger, therefore I should be oh, I'm stronger, therefore I should be more a bunch more muscle on my body cuz more a bunch more muscle on my body cuz more a bunch more muscle on my body cuz that's not what's happened for either. that's not what's happened for either. that's not what's happened for either. She just put on some body fat and her She just put on some body fat and her She just put on some body fat and her body's kind of getting to this healthier body's kind of getting to this healthier body's kind of getting to this healthier place of, well, this is the calories we place of, well, this is the calories we place of, well, this is the calories we needed. This is the body fat we needed. needed. This is the body fat we needed. needed. This is the body fat we needed. Now, let's go build on that. And so Now, let's go build on that. And so Now, let's go build on that. And so muscle will tend to follow that and it muscle will tend to follow that and it muscle will tend to follow that and it could take months later before you start could take months later before you start could take months later before you start to see the payoff from that increased to see the payoff from that increased to see the payoff from that increased calorie and that strength. And what ends calorie and that strength. And what ends calorie and that strength. And what ends up happening psychologically to people up happening psychologically to people up happening psychologically to people like yourself and like her who have that like yourself and like her who have that like yourself and like her who have that fear of like opening weight is you let fear of like opening weight is you let fear of like opening weight is you let yourself go up calorie- wise. You don't yourself go up calorie- wise. You don't yourself go up calorie- wise. You don't see the muscle. You just see kind of see the muscle. You just see kind of see the muscle. You just see kind of body fat go on. And even though maybe body fat go on. And even though maybe body fat go on. And even though maybe the strength and some other signs are the strength and some other signs are the strength and some other signs are seeing good, you go back down because seeing good, you go back down because seeing good, you go back down because you're like, "Oh [ __ ] I don't like the you're like, "Oh [ __ ] I don't like the you're like, "Oh [ __ ] I don't like the what what I look like." And so this is what what I look like." And so this is what what I look like." And so this is the cycle she's been in for a very long the cycle she's been in for a very long the cycle she's been in for a very long time before she's hired me. And a lot of time before she's hired me. And a lot of time before she's hired me. And a lot of the conversation that we have to have is the conversation that we have to have is the conversation that we have to have is like stay the course. You're doing good. like stay the course. You're doing good. like stay the course. You're doing good. Like what we see happening in the gym, I Like what we see happening in the gym, I Like what we see happening in the gym, I know is where we're heading the right know is where we're heading the right know is where we're heading the right direction. Just be patient. You've kept direction. Just be patient. You've kept direction. Just be patient. You've kept yourself so low in calories for so long. yourself so low in calories for so long. yourself so low in calories for so long. Your body isn't comfortable yet there Your body isn't comfortable yet there Your body isn't comfortable yet there and it'll take some time. And so I think and it'll take some time. And so I think and it'll take some time. And so I think you're in a very similar situation due you're in a very similar situation due you're in a very similar situation due to how long you've kept low calorie, to how long you've kept low calorie, to how long you've kept low calorie, high stress, a lot of stuff going on. high stress, a lot of stuff going on. high stress, a lot of stuff going on. And so yeah, you had initial bump and And so yeah, you had initial bump and And so yeah, you had initial bump and you saw strength increase, but then you saw strength increase, but then you saw strength increase, but then maybe you didn't see the body maybe you didn't see the body maybe you didn't see the body composition that you wanted right away composition that you wanted right away composition that you wanted right away and probably bailed and went, "Oh, [ __ ] and probably bailed and went, "Oh, [ __ ] and probably bailed and went, "Oh, [ __ ] this." Went back down and and and this." Went back down and and and this." Went back down and and and freaked right, which is this is very freaked right, which is this is very freaked right, which is this is very normal with someone who's kind of kept normal with someone who's kind of kept normal with someone who's kind of kept their calories where you're at. Um, but their calories where you're at. Um, but their calories where you're at. Um, but this is what we need to do. My this is what we need to do. My this is what we need to do. My suggestion is because I know how suggestion is because I know how suggestion is because I know how difficult this I know how much work her difficult this I know how much work her difficult this I know how much work her and I are doing on the psychological and I are doing on the psychological and I are doing on the psychological level. Outsourcing this to somebody else level. Outsourcing this to somebody else level. Outsourcing this to somebody else would be something extremely valuable to would be something extremely valuable to would be something extremely valuable to somebody who's got as much on your plate somebody who's got as much on your plate somebody who's got as much on your plate that you trust to take you through that. that you trust to take you through that. that you trust to take you through that. Um unless you feel confident that you Um unless you feel confident that you Um unless you feel confident that you can push through this. But if you kind can push through this. But if you kind can push through this. But if you kind of know yourself like I felt like she of know yourself like I felt like she of know yourself like I felt like she did and which is why she cuz it wasn't a did and which is why she cuz it wasn't a did and which is why she cuz it wasn't a lack of knowledge. She's got all the lack of knowledge. She's got all the lack of knowledge. She's got all the knowledge to do it. It was Adam, I need knowledge to do it. It was Adam, I need knowledge to do it. It was Adam, I need someone to just kind of be that voice someone to just kind of be that voice someone to just kind of be that voice that reminds me I'm heading the right that reminds me I'm heading the right that reminds me I'm heading the right path and confirm that. U does that path and confirm that. U does that path and confirm that. U does that resonate with you or do you feel like resonate with you or do you feel like resonate with you or do you feel like that's not you? that's not you? that's not you? >> No, I I I do think that I probably >> No, I I I do think that I probably >> No, I I I do think that I probably should get some help in that area. should get some help in that area. should get some help in that area. >> Yeah. And I I definitely, you know, >> Yeah. And I I definitely, you know, >> Yeah. And I I definitely, you know, despite all this going on and the kind despite all this going on and the kind despite all this going on and the kind of the calorie restriction over the of the calorie restriction over the of the calorie restriction over the years, you know, I I think I'm kind of years, you know, I I think I'm kind of years, you know, I I think I'm kind of at the limit with what I can do in my at the limit with what I can do in my at the limit with what I can do in my own home weight setup that I have own home weight setup that I have own home weight setup that I have basically have, you know, the the home basically have, you know, the the home basically have, you know, the the home at home bench and the and the dumbbells. at home bench and the and the dumbbells. at home bench and the and the dumbbells. >> Um, so I'm really looking at where do I >> Um, so I'm really looking at where do I >> Um, so I'm really looking at where do I go from here? I I've maxed out the go from here? I I've maxed out the go from here? I I've maxed out the weight that I have. I mean, I've done weight that I have. I mean, I've done weight that I have. I mean, I've done the reps slower and all all the things the reps slower and all all the things the reps slower and all all the things that we do to make make the the workouts that we do to make make the the workouts that we do to make make the the workouts better. Um, so I think I am ready to better. Um, so I think I am ready to better. Um, so I think I am ready to kind of level up whatever I'm I'm doing kind of level up whatever I'm I'm doing kind of level up whatever I'm I'm doing in terms of a workout. in terms of a workout. in terms of a workout. >> Oh, yeah. That's helpful. >> Oh, yeah. That's helpful. >> Oh, yeah. That's helpful. >> If you got a rack and a barbell, yeah, >> If you got a rack and a barbell, yeah, >> If you got a rack and a barbell, yeah, you'd be it would be you'd be it would be you'd be it would be >> There's better options for that now, >> There's better options for that now, >> There's better options for that now, too. I don't know if you've explored too. I don't know if you've explored too.

It's a rack that folds into the here. It's a rack that folds into the here. It's a rack that folds into the wall so it only sticks off the wall uh wall so it only sticks off the wall uh wall so it only sticks off the wall uh six inches. So you can still park your six inches. So you can still park your six inches. So you can still park your car in the garage and everything and car in the garage and everything and car in the garage and everything and everything gets mounted on the wall.

And it is very uh it is very possible it is plausible if you do very possible it is plausible if you do very possible it is plausible if you do this right that at the end of this you this right that at the end of this you this right that at the end of this you don't have to really track. Every once don't have to really track. Every once don't have to really track. Every once in a while you'll track to see where in a while you'll track to see where in a while you'll track to see where you're at, but really you just kind of you're at, but really you just kind of you're at, but really you just kind of eat in a way that's healthy. You stick eat in a way that's healthy. You stick eat in a way that's healthy. You stick to all natural foods, eat high protein, to all natural foods, eat high protein, to all natural foods, eat high protein, uh your metabolic rate adapts in a uh your metabolic rate adapts in a uh your metabolic rate adapts in a direction that makes gives you much more direction that makes gives you much more direction that makes gives you much more flexibility. flexibility. flexibility. >> You feel good. uh you're walking around >> You feel good. uh you're walking around >> You feel good. uh you're walking around 13% body fat, 14, you feel good and it's 13% body fat, 14, you feel good and it's 13% body fat, 14, you feel good and it's not something you have to like not something you have to like not something you have to like constantly watch and manage and you constantly watch and manage and you constantly watch and manage and you don't feel like you're going to swing in don't feel like you're going to swing in don't feel like you're going to swing in one direction uh if you you know have a one direction uh if you you know have a one direction uh if you you know have a weekend with your wife somewhere or weekend with your wife somewhere or weekend with your wife somewhere or something like that. something like that. something like that. >> I think this energy that you have kind >> I think this energy that you have kind >> I think this energy that you have kind of moving towards uh barbell training is of moving towards uh barbell training is of moving towards uh barbell training is really going to benefit you just to push really going to benefit you just to push really going to benefit you just to push you more into just strength pure you more into just strength pure you more into just strength pure strength focus. You're you're fueling strength focus. You're you're fueling strength focus. You're you're fueling that. So now you're you're shuttling all that. So now you're you're shuttling all that. So now you're you're shuttling all these calories uh you know into these calories uh you know into these calories uh you know into prioritizing like building muscle u and prioritizing like building muscle u and prioritizing like building muscle u and it's just going to have that compounding it's just going to have that compounding it's just going to have that compounding effect where then yeah we don't have to effect where then yeah we don't have to effect where then yeah we don't have to prioritize uh your diet nutrition be prioritize uh your diet nutrition be prioritize uh your diet nutrition be hyper obsessed over that so much and and hyper obsessed over that so much and and hyper obsessed over that so much and and it really will pay off. it really will pay off. it really will pay off. >> That's actually a really the fact that >> That's actually a really the fact that >> That's actually a really the fact that you shared that with us is exciting. you shared that with us is exciting. you shared that with us is exciting.

I'm 29. I lost my period about uh two and a 29. I lost my period about uh two and a 29. I lost my period about uh two and a half years ago due to I think under half years ago due to I think under half years ago due to I think under eating and over exercising because at eating and over exercising because at eating and over exercising because at the time I was doing Pilates every the time I was doing Pilates every the time I was doing Pilates every single day and walking 10 more 10k steps single day and walking 10 more 10k steps single day and walking 10 more 10k steps um more every single day while eating I um more every single day while eating I um more every single day while eating I believe less than 1,500 believe less than 1,500 believe less than 1,500 calories. So I think it was too much for calories. So I think it was too much for calories. So I think it was too much for my body. And since discovering your my body. And since discovering your my body. And since discovering your podcast two years ago, I started podcast two years ago, I started podcast two years ago, I started strength training and reverse dieting. strength training and reverse dieting. strength training and reverse dieting. Um I'm now following MAP 15. Uh I merged Um I'm now following MAP 15. Uh I merged Um I'm now following MAP 15. Uh I merged the day together so that I can do four the day together so that I can do four the day together so that I can do four workouts with three exercises each um workouts with three exercises each um workouts with three exercises each um and because it's easier for my schedule. and because it's easier for my schedule. and because it's easier for my schedule. And I'm now at 2,800 And I'm now at 2,800 And I'm now at 2,800 calories um from my from my reverse calories um from my from my reverse calories um from my from my reverse diet. And I'm continuing reversing. Um, diet. And I'm continuing reversing. Um, diet. And I'm continuing reversing. Um, and I also lowered my steps to about se and I also lowered my steps to about se and I also lowered my steps to about se 7,000 during the week uh a few months 7,000 during the week uh a few months 7,000 during the week uh a few months ago. Uh, it's often more on the weekends ago. Uh, it's often more on the weekends ago. Uh, it's often more on the weekends but less during the week. Um, my sleep but less during the week. Um, my sleep but less during the week. Um, my sleep is okay about 8 hours per night as well is okay about 8 hours per night as well is okay about 8 hours per night as well as my stress. So, my question is that I as my stress. So, my question is that I as my stress. So, my question is that I feel like I'm doing everything right. U, feel like I'm doing everything right. U, feel like I'm doing everything right. U, my OB/GYN also confirmed that nothing is my OB/GYN also confirmed that nothing is my OB/GYN also confirmed that nothing is wrong with my hormones. I did all wrong with my hormones. I did all wrong with my hormones. I did all different testing. So, uh, still my different testing. So, uh, still my different testing. So, uh, still my period is not bad. So, what would you period is not bad. So, what would you period is not bad. So, what would you recommend? Should I continue my reverse recommend? Should I continue my reverse recommend? Should I continue my reverse diet? Um, yeah. I don't know if you have diet? Um, yeah. I don't know if you have diet? Um, yeah. I don't know if you have any ideas. any ideas. any ideas. >> Oh, yeah. How long have you been doing >> Oh, yeah. How long have you been doing >> Oh, yeah. How long have you been doing this for now?

So this So this is what So if you started at 16 and you're just now if you started at 16 and you're just now if you started at 16 and you're just now at 21, which means you were probably at at 21, which means you were probably at at 21, which means you were probably at 17 then 18 and so you probably have only 17 then 18 and so you probably have only 17 then 18 and so you probably have only been over 20% for a little while, right? been over 20% for a little while, right? been over 20% for a little while, right?

Okay. Yeah. I mean, and I'm glad >> Okay. Okay. Yeah. I mean, and I'm glad >> Okay. Okay. Yeah. I mean, and I'm glad Adam asked you about body fat Adam asked you about body fat Adam asked you about body fat percentage, and you could look up the percentage, and you could look up the percentage, and you could look up the data on this, but fertility seems to be data on this, but fertility seems to be data on this, but fertility seems to be best in my experience with my clients, best in my experience with my clients, best in my experience with my clients, the women that I've trained the women that I've trained the women that I've trained >> in the in in the mid20s >> in the in in the mid20s >> in the in in the mid20s >> is typically when things start to for >> is typically when things start to for >> is typically when things start to for the body, the fe the female body likes the body, the fe the female body likes the body, the fe the female body likes to have a little bit of body fat before to have a little bit of body fat before to have a little bit of body fat before it says, "Hey, we can have it says, "Hey, we can have it says, "Hey, we can have >> a baby." And you sat at low body fat >> a baby." And you sat at low body fat >> a baby."

So, I think where two to Sal's point. So, I think where two to Sal's point. So, I think where you're at calorie-wise is great. You'll you're at calorie-wise is great. You'll you're at calorie-wise is great. You'll probably still maybe put a little bit probably still maybe put a little bit probably still maybe put a little bit more on.

I I I still think back sometimes like maybe if I am training sometimes like maybe if I am training sometimes like maybe if I am training less that I'm going to lose some of my less that I'm going to lose some of my less that I'm going to lose some of my gains or not be as fit. And I know that gains or not be as fit. And I know that gains or not be as fit. And I know that that's not what you guys preach at all. that's not what you guys preach at all. that's not what you guys preach at all. So, I appreciate everything I've learned So, I appreciate everything I've learned So, I appreciate everything I've learned from you guys, but I kind of just want from you guys, but I kind of just want from you guys, but I kind of just want to have like a set way of going about it to have like a set way of going about it to have like a set way of going about it so that I know I'm structuring it the so that I know I'm structuring it the so that I know I'm structuring it the right way um and not kind of going back right way um and not kind of going back right way um and not kind of going back if that if that makes sense. if that if that makes sense. if that if that makes sense. >> We have perfect programs for you, but >> We have perfect programs for you, but >> We have perfect programs for you, but they're not the two that you were they're not the two that you were they're not the two that you were looking at. looking at. looking at. >> No. >> No. >> No. >> So, that's even that's too much too much >> So, that's even that's too much too much >> So, that's even that's too much too much volume for for what you want to do. volume for for what you want to do. volume for for what you want to do. >> So, like one of our MAPS 15 programs, >> So, like one of our MAPS 15 programs, >> So, like one of our MAPS 15 programs, one of the any any program in that one of the any any program in that one of the any any program in that series.

If you're that much that much training. If you're that much that much training. If you're going to do a full hour workout it only going to do a full hour workout it only going to do a full hour workout it only be like one day a week. That's all you be like one day a week. That's all you be like one day a week. That's all you would need and you would build you'd would need and you would build you'd would need and you would build you'd build muscle. You get strong build muscle. You get strong build muscle.

You'll have more energy when you gains. You'll have more energy when you gains. You'll have more energy when you go play soccer and swim. Here's what I go play soccer and swim. Here's what I go play soccer and swim. Here's what I don't want you to do. don't want you to do. don't want you to do. >> I don't want you to get all crazy and >> I don't want you to get all crazy and >> I don't want you to get all crazy and ramp up your swimming and your running ramp up your swimming and your running ramp up your swimming and your running suddenly. [laughter] suddenly. [laughter] suddenly. [laughter] >> And then let's talk about your food, >> And then let's talk about your food, >> And then let's talk about your food, your nutrition. I see here in your co in your nutrition. I see here in your co in your nutrition. I see here in your co in your uh email that you're eating about your uh email that you're eating about your uh email that you're eating about 2,400 calories a day. 2,400 calories a day. 2,400 calories a day. >> Yeah, that's when I was I had to track >> Yeah, that's when I was I had to track >> Yeah, that's when I was I had to track it for one of my nutrition classes. And it for one of my nutrition classes. And it for one of my nutrition classes. And so that was maybe six months ago when I so that was maybe six months ago when I so that was maybe six months ago when I did that, but that was when I was also did that, but that was when I was also did that, but that was when I was also doing a lot more exercise. So, I was a doing a lot more exercise. So, I was a doing a lot more exercise. So, I was a lot hungrier. Um, and now I haven't lot hungrier. Um, and now I haven't lot hungrier. Um, and now I haven't tracked it in a while, but I think I'm a tracked it in a while, but I think I'm a tracked it in a while, but I think I'm a little bit less than that. Um, but I little bit less than that. Um, but I little bit less than that. Um, but I definitely I always just look at my definitely I always just look at my definitely I always just look at my protein and I I weigh I fluctuate like protein and I I weigh I fluctuate like protein and I I weigh I fluctuate like between 130 132. So, I kind of aim for between 130 132. So, I kind of aim for between 130 132. So, I kind of aim for 135 to 140 grams of protein since I'm 135 to 140 grams of protein since I'm 135 to 140 grams of protein since I'm trying to build muscle. But, yeah, I trying to build muscle. But, yeah, I trying to build muscle. But, yeah, I kind of wanted to know what your guys' kind of wanted to know what your guys' kind of wanted to know what your guys' thoughts were on that or how I should thoughts were on that or how I should thoughts were on that or how I should change my nutrition. change my nutrition. change my nutrition. >> Yeah, I I like what you're doing. Yeah, >> Yeah, I I like what you're doing. Yeah, >> Yeah, I I like what you're doing. Yeah, >> I think uh probably around 2500 calories >> I think uh probably around 2500 calories >> I think uh probably around 2500 calories would be great. Yeah, I would say keep would be great. Yeah, I would say keep would be great. Yeah, I would say keep if you don't want to get crazy into if you don't want to get crazy into if you don't want to get crazy into weighing, measuring everything, keep weighing, measuring everything, keep weighing, measuring everything, keep doing what you're doing with the doing what you're doing with the doing what you're doing with the protein. But I would also encourage you protein. But I would also encourage you protein. But I would also encourage you if you're hungry to eat because even if if you're hungry to eat because even if if you're hungry to eat because even if you're less than 2400 calories, you're you're less than 2400 calories, you're you're less than 2400 calories, you're training, lifting weights, looks like training, lifting weights, looks like training, lifting weights, looks like you have a job where you're on your you have a job where you're on your you have a job where you're on your feet, probably moving around a lot, too, feet, probably moving around a lot, too, feet, probably moving around a lot, too, and then you also have those three days and then you also have those three days and then you also have those three days activity. That's lower on the calorie activity. That's lower on the calorie activity. That's lower on the calorie end. And so if you feel your appetite end. And so if you feel your appetite end. And so if you feel your appetite increase, I would tell you to to feed increase, I would tell you to to feed increase, I would tell you to to feed it. it. it. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> So do what you're doing with the >> So do what you're doing with the >> So do what you're doing with the protein. protein. protein. >> Definitely don't try to restrict. >> Definitely don't try to restrict. >> Definitely don't try to restrict. >> Yeah. Don't restrict like that's not >> Yeah. Don't restrict like that's not >> Yeah. Don't restrict like that's not what like if you so do the protein thing what like if you so do the protein thing what like if you so do the protein thing and if you feel hungry have another one and if you feel hungry have another one and if you feel hungry have another one of those high protein meals like just of those high protein meals like just of those high protein meals like just eat another meal like I would that would eat another meal like I would that would eat another meal like I would that would be the advice because there's a good be the advice because there's a good be the advice because there's a good chance that if you're only eating 2200 chance that if you're only eating 2200 chance that if you're only eating 2200 calories we hit the appropriate amount calories we hit the appropriate amount calories we hit the appropriate amount of strength training with the activity of strength training with the activity of strength training with the activity you have you should feel appetite you have you should feel appetite you have you should feel appetite increase increase increase >> and I don't want you to restrict from >> and I don't want you to restrict from >> and I don't want you to restrict from that cuz that'll keep you from building that cuz that'll keep you from building that cuz that'll keep you from building the muscle you want to build. the muscle you want to build. the muscle you want to build. >> That's right. And here's what you'll >> That's right. And here's what you'll >> That's right. And here's what you'll feel when you start following uh Mass 15 feel when you start following uh Mass 15 feel when you start following uh Mass 15 muscle mommy. uh you'll have more energy muscle mommy. uh you'll have more energy muscle mommy. uh you'll have more energy and better performance on the days that and better performance on the days that and better performance on the days that you play soccer and swim and run. Um and you play soccer and swim and run. Um and you play soccer and swim and run. Um and you'll also see some strength gains you'll also see some strength gains you'll also see some strength gains probably within the first couple weeks. probably within the first couple weeks. probably within the first couple weeks. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> Yeah. And if appetite >> Yeah. And if appetite >> Yeah.
