What started out as a kettlebell conversation became one of how movement can set people free. Free from the restraints of injury, sickness, and feeling like crap.

In this episode we talk about:
-What true "strength" is
-Why the kettlebell is an elite tool for cardio, fat loss, and strength building
-How to find a good KB instructor

It might be time....no wait, it is time to look a little deeper. Time to check out some biology. We will begin with leptin. Leptin is the hormone that controls hunger and satiety. If leptin is off, you won't be burning fat like you want to.

Check out this quick hitting podcast to understand the mechanism of what leptin is, how it affects weight loss, and what the next song on my album will be!

I chatted with Hailey, the yoga instructor at Avenu Fitness, who broke down the ancient study of yoga in a way a lamen like me could understand.

We chatted about:
-The true art of connection

You are on a dingy trying to get to your goal across the lake. A fog rolls in. You can't see squat, can't navigate your way through, and aren't sure what to do.

Think of that clutter, chaos, and confusion as fog. It blocks view of your goals, leaving you feeling stranded. This fog can stem from some fear we have or just be created by our own busy minds.

Ultimately that fear can lead to procrastination and self sabotage, further pushing us away from our intended goal. In this episode we talk about how to set good goals, get outside help, and remove fear from your life.
