#228 - You don’t need 5–6 hour-long workouts a week to get results, but that doesn’t mean you can coast, either. In this episode, I explain why 3 workouts per week is truly enough for busy dads over 40… and what those workouts actually need to look like for you to build muscle, burn fat, and ditch the dad bod.

If you’ve been stuck in an all-or-nothing mindset - either “go hard every day” or “do nothing” - this episode will show you how to train smarter, not longer, and make real progress with the limited time you have.

Three workouts can work. You just have to do them right.

#227 - Last night, an old Army buddy called me up. He used to weigh 175. Now he’s 265. He joked about his clothes shrinking in the dryer. I told him the truth: it’s not the dryer... it’s the fridge.

In this episode, we’re talking about the one thing you can’t hide: your body. You can cover up bad habits with clothes, filters, and excuses, but the mirror always tells the truth. And here’s the good news… that truth can change.

We’ll dive into:

• What your body says about your habits and discipline
• Why facing reality is the first step to changing it
• How to go from feeling stuck to making visible progress
• And what the 3-5-1 Method can do for busy dads who are ready to lead from the front

This isn’t about shame. It’s about taking ownership, and finally seeing a reflection you're proud of.

#226 - What does it actually mean to be an unstoppable man in 2026—as a husband, father, and leader at home?

In this special collaboration episode, Mitchell Osmond (The Dad Nation Podcast) sits down with Kevin Torres (Dad Bod WOD), Daniel Grose (Honest Fatherhood), and Jesse Carstairs to unpack what keeps men stuck—and what actually creates lasting change. You’ll hear real talk on consistency, resilience, identity, emotional control, fatherhood leadership, marriage dynamics, and fitness systems that work for busy dads.

If you’ve been trying to “white-knuckle” growth alone, this episode will show you why that strategy keeps failing—and why the right community, frameworks, and mentorship can change everything.
