Ep 74 | Before and After Pics, Mindfulness, and Putting Supplements on Blast

We open today&apos;s show discussing some experiences we&apos;ve had with clients we&apos;ve trained over the years. We focus on two different barriers people most often experience - motivation and stress/time management. We explore some interesting new fitness studios popping up that feature personalized stretching sessions with "flexologists." This leads us to ask the question: does passive stretching actually do anything? What does work? Lastly, we re-visit an old topic of plant-based diets with a study that shows a link between depression and plant-based diets.

Does stretching actually do anything to improve functional range of motion? What is a better alternative? Does having someone "stretch you out" help at all? 3.

Ep 71 | Exercise Addiction, Cracking Joints, and CrossFit Diabeetus

Have no fear, Matt and Sabrena are back to recording the show in the same room! Food Labels We examine a recent piece of legislation that was shot down by Congress. This legislation aimed at changing food labels to make them more understandable and to reflect the nutrition needs of modern Americans. Counting Macros We dive into the general public&apos;s obsessions with "counting macros" and ask ourselves: Isn&apos;t that just how we should eat all the time? Our conclusion is that Social Media can be used for making sustainable ways of eating popular just as much as it can make fringe diets popular - you just need shirtless young people. Help us Out!

Ep 69 | EDM, Gluten, Up-Sold Cheesecake, and Re-Framing Your Stress

This week we ask the question: If you could completely transform your health, physique, and fitness in one 2-hour absolutely grueling workout and have the results last a lifetime - would you do it? A 4-hour workout? A full day? Next, we chat about how to track the calories that you eat after midnight. Lastly, we answer a listener question about pasta noodles with zero carbs. Thanks for listening, sharing with a friend, and leaving us a review!

Ep 68 | Kaizen Thought Experiment, Calories After Midnight, and Magic Noodles

This week we&apos;re talking about doing food prep on a tight budget. In a broad sense, we&apos;re discussing ways that you can be more efficient with your time and money. We both strongly believe that preparing your own whole, healthy foods should actually cost LESS than packaged food, eating out, and "Health Foods." Please note the very distinct difference between Health Food and healthy food. Here are the highlights: 1. Buy foods in their individual, whole form NOT the packaged version. 2. Consider your food budget all things you eat or drink. 3. Avoid recipes - view meals as their macro-nutrients (fat, carbs, and protein) and prepare accordingly. Thanks for listening, sharing with a friend, and leaving a review.

Ep 67 | A Food-Prepper's Guide to the Galaxy

This week we return to our discussion about vegetarianism and veganism. This time we ditch the criticism of fad vegetarianism coming off the heels of the scientifically suspect documentary "What the Health" and approach it from a more helpful stance. How can those opting for plant-based diets from a religious and moral standpoint maintain an optimally healthy intake of macro- and micro- nutrients absent the consumption of meat? After looking through some research we arrive at the conclusion that plant-based diets are: 1. Not inherently healthy 2. They CAN be healthy, and 3. It is harder to adopt a healthy plant-based diet than a healthy omnivorous diet, but it can be done. Thanks for listening, sharing with a friend, and leaving us a review!

Ep 66 | Sabrena Getting Spicy on Plant-Based Diets

Every week, Sabrena and Matt face the fitness and nutrition industry head-on. In a show dedicated to wading through BS and pseudo science with some laughs and absurdity, Matt and Sabrena encourage listeners to embrace the tension and enjoy the journey.
