Two nutrition, health, and contest prep coaches talking about forgiveness - how weird is that? Before you scroll away, consider why you train or pursue aggressive fitness. Maybe even physique or strength sport. Is part of it to make yourself more...acceptable? Insulate yourself from criticism or insecurity? There may be a couple of layers to explore that make your fitness life more fun, positive, and productive! Joe Klemczewski, PhD, and Tyler Wiebe, BSc, have teamed up to connect the grind of t...

People begin with a negativity bias, a self-protective fear filter that keeps the world at arm's length. Some of us get too good at it and end up seeing only darkness and doom. Or we ignore it altogether and build layers of delusion. What if you could use negativity as a force to propel yourself toward the best things in life? Let it steer and power you to reach goals?

You have options. Good options. In a maturing coaching industry that reflects every other unregulated occupation, the talent pool ranges from unbelievably high-quality and over-qualified to literal murderers. Google it. Multiple coaches have killed young, healthy clients because of their malpractice, ignorance, and arrogance. Others suffer shame and humiliation from abusive coaches. You don't just deserve good results - or great results - you should be able to expect a worthwhile journey that pr...

It's sad that New Year's resolutions end up as joke punchlines more times than not. We still gravitate strongly toward positive change for very good reasons. There are well-studied motive cues that attract us to the blank slate mentality of sharpening our behavior. We don't just want to do different things, we want to become different people. That's a good thing. Listen in as Joe and Tyler discuss their personal evolutions and how you can use the most effective methods to graft real change into ...

Sometimes looking into our own futures makes us apprehensive. We fear losing what we love. As we enter that future, sometimes we hold onto things just because they are remnants of our identities and we're afraid of losing who we used to be, and all the things attached. But what if we view life as successful seasons enjoyed? What if we're okay leaving parts of us behind to find new identities? From literal possessions to hobbies and different functional status milestones, maybe we can find more p...

Not exactly clickbait, eh? "Hmm...I'm so excited to see what two coaches think about service to others, let's grab some popcorn!" But, man. Man, oh, man. The social capital and the glue that holds relationships together - and entire societies - is service. Other-centeredness. It would be an easy argument to prove that even your health and athletic pursuits depend on the relationships you build through reciprocal, service-based connection. Listen in with Tyler and Joe and see if you agree! Joe Kl...

Sometimes real tragedy strikes and you don't even have the ability to ask those questions - it's just survival.

Your chest tightens, your heart races, and you can't think of anything except impending doom. Sometimes for seemingly no reason. We all feel anxious in some contexts, and importantly so. But when you can't control anxiety responses and it impacts your life, it's time to look for a solution. The health and fitness community is one of high standards. That can mean more pressure and higher expectations... more opportunity to fear failure and more opportunity to miss self-imposed marks. Joe and Tyle...
