Do you often feel like there’s never enough time to get everything done in a day?

That’s a familiar problem for many up and coming entrepreneurs, which often runs the rubber raw, leading to burnout (both financially and mentally).

Yet, there's really only a few key targets you should be focusing on each day:

1) Staying focused on one single path

2) Surrounding yourself with the RIGHT kind of people

When you focus on THESE two aspects, you’ll find reaching your goals isn’t that difficult.

Now in today’s episode, I’m interviewed by Lauren Tickler, a 21-year-old entrepreneur who’s helped over 1,000 individuals increase their impact, influence, and income through her online programs.

We dig into my backstory, how I created a singularity of focus to build numerous 7-figure businesses, and the type of friends (and enemies) you must surround yourself with to reach your goals!

Enjoy :)

In today’s episode, I sit down with Ryan “The Solution” Faehnle, a world class strength coach & consultant.

Now, if you’re not already familiar with Ryan, he’s one of the smartest minds in the fitness industry, especially when it comes to individualized fitness programming. For this reason, I’ve not only been consulting with him for the past 5 years before releasing any new fitness product to the public, but Ryan’s also only one of a select few with whom I’ve trusted my own personal workout program design.  

Today we’ll be talking about his insight from attending the Society of Weight-Training Injury Specialists (SWIS) Symposium, an event where the top powerlifters, bodybuilders, doctors, therapists, trainers, strength coaches, and nutritionists all present their best information.

We talk about cutting-edge diet research...

We dive into when you should and shouldn’t cut…

And we dive head first into the steroid issue that’s taking the Instagram world by storm.

Ryan holds back no details in this episode.

Enjoy!

 

“Be realistically positive. If you believe it, then it’s true.”

How do the three big neurotransmitters dopamine, adrenaline, and serotonin impact your workouts and influence who you are as a person? That’s what Christian Thibaudeau, the former head writer for Testosterone Magazine, and I will discuss in this episode of The Vince Del Monte Podcast Show.

Here’s the thing: When you understand how you’re wired, you’ll understand how to adjust your workouts and tweak your nutrition so you can achieve your highest potential in the least amount of time. It’s the same for your clients—understanding how they’re wired will help you deliver to them maximum results in minimum time.

Christian also shares his personal experience with intermittent fasting and how this nutritional strategy can be used to improve your physique and health. Join Vince and Christian to learn how to put your best self out there.

“Those who are established in this business, give something back! Give someone a break.”
