Abel James Show

When you see a model or celebrity on a magazine cover, you’re looking at a lie.

It goes deeper than the digital defatting, teeth whitening, and de-blemishing that happens in Photoshop. Fitness models also have a few tricks up their sleeves… The trade secrets of photo shoots, you might say.

Today we are here with Mark Dhamma, a former fitness model who now coaches celebrities, executives, and athletes to optimize their health and mindset.

Unless you want a heart attack in your thirties, you have to dial in your nutrition. Most dudes have no clue where to start.

Our guest today is Serena Wolf, author of The Dude Diet: Clean(ish) Food for People Who Like to Eat Dirty. When Serena first witnessed the way her boyfriend really ate at home, she was absolutely terrified. Now she’s a trained chef who specializes in making "guy food" with healthy ingredients… without sacrificing taste.

So if you (or the dude in your life) can’t live without mac and cheese, nachos, and pizza, this show is for you.

I recently chatted with a performance coach to billionaires, professional athletes, and A-list celebrities. I asked him, “If there’s one question that always works when you’re coaching clients, what is it?”

He said the answer was easy. He simply asks, “How’s your relationship?”

Whether you’re a celebrity or an average Joe, the answer isn’t always pretty.

Too often, when one person in a relationship decides to eat better, get fit, quit drinking, or make any other life changes, the other person tears them down.

When you transform your body and your life, sometimes it feels like you’re going at it alone. Maybe you noticed your drinking buddies aren’t quite as fun when you’re sober.

Change is threatening, and as humans, we’re wired for negativity. On today’s show with my friends Brian and Carrie, you’ll learn a simple daily practice to transform the way you think.

If you could change your relationship with food in just 30 days, would you do it?

Our guest today is Melissa Hartwig, #1 best-selling author and certified sports nutritionist, whose books It Starts with Food and The Whole30 have transformed millions of lives across the globe.

Have you ever had a leaky roof?

In college, I lived in an apartment that should have been condemned.

During a storm one day, the roof sprung an enormous leak. Then the wall next to my bedroom just opened up, and I watched black mold spill out everywhere.

At the time, I had been virtually bedridden for over a month with symptoms my doctor couldn’t explain.

Brain fog, low body temperature, and severe fatigue made it hard to do anything. I didn’t even want to play music anymore.

When you get sidelined by illness, your life can go into a tailspin. Dr. Amy Myers is back on Fat-Burning Man this week to make sure your thyroid, hormones, and lifestyle give you the energy and vitality you deserve.
