The internet has been saying, "Don't lift, don't run, just walk"... but what are the implications of this advice? what are the negative consequences? How much of each plays a role in health and longevity? This podcast aims to offer that answer with prescriptive advice for curating an optimal, health-focused approach.

If you want to learn more about optimizing health span, not just life span - check out Peter Atia's book "Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity".

RIM TO RIM AT THE GRAND CANYON! On May 31st, 2024 I set off with some friends to take on what only 1% of park visitors do…rim to rim. The route is about 21-24.6 miles, over 5000 feet in elevation gain, incredibly hot, and what makes rim to rim more difficult is no matter where you start and end... you're leaving the hard part for the very end (the slow climb up).

This podcast is of course to share my experience - but also to help you take it on yourselves, if you dare! And I really really hope you do.

First I’ll walk you through the preparation (planning logistics, training, and nutrition), then I’ll take you through a play by play of how it all went down (from start time to snacks I brought), and I’ll finish up by sharing any learning objectives. If I were to do it again…what I would do differently?

QUESTION - HOW DO I GET LEANER? As a fat loss expert, I want to lend myself to this conversation. Particularly as a lot of people pursue a smaller body going into summer and (too often) dive into methods that are more harmful than helpful in the long run.

In this pod I aim to answer the questions…

-What are the important elements of weight loss?
-How to assess calorie needs?
-How to assess protein needs?
-What about the other macros?
-How does training change for a weight loss program?
-How can training aid in a leaner body composition?
-What about IF or keto or other weight loss options?

If you have any questions or are interested in some 1-on-1 coaching, email me samplanme@gmail.com for info! Here to serve.
