Ep. 10 - You must BURN THE BOATS to BURN THE FAT :)

You must BURN THE BOATS to win. At anything. The idea of going into something with one foot out the door sets you up to fail. Leaving an escape route prevents us from putting our whole ass into the effort (and half asses don't look good in yoga pants!) An alternative diet; an alternative training program; an alternative mentorship program; an alternative partner; an alternative job etc. etc. You can't win half into things. So what's this all about? I’m sure you know the legendary story from 1519...

Ep. 9 - How to stop overeating on weekends (4 strategies!)

I used to over-eat like a king on weekends. Sure, I was “good” all week. Arguably perfect. But weekends? Oh boy. I'd plan these elaborate cheat meals and rationalized the 'need' for then. Friday then became a gateway drug to the rest of the weekend and I'd go way off plan. It wasn't something I was ashamed by. I still made some progress. But it's like a carpenter working hard all week on a project only to burn it down on Friday! It just doesn't make sense. And while weight fluctuation is inevita...

[Ep. 3] Lessons from Losing 100 Pounds in 11 Months with Sean Crick

I'm Sean Crick. I was a year ago, a week ago and a year ago that I decided that I hadn't changed the way I was living. Wasn't healthy, wasn't sustainable. And, you know, I'm looking at myself in the mirror and said, you gotta do something here, you're gonna die. And, but where do I get started? Don't know how to get started. And, you know, whether the fake gods were listening or what it was, it was the same day that Mitch had one of his regular articles in the free press. And I read it and he st...

Ep 2 - Is Ozempic Right For You?

No pound-shedding panacea, or is there? Ozempic is an injectable medication administered once a week. Ozempic mimics the GLP-1 hormone naturally produced in the intestines. Its primary role is to reduce food cravings and appetite. It can also delay gastric emptying, which is the time it takes for food to move through the stomach, so you hit and sustain that full feeling more than normal. It has its pros and cons as we'll get into. To slim down sustainably and boost health and fitness, you can’t ...
