Faithful Fitness With Coach Alex VanHouten

As a health coach with real people daily for almost 14 years, you learn things that research hasn’t quite parsed out yet.

One of these things is that some types of cardiovascular exercise seemed to help clients lose fat faster than others…even aside from caloric expenditure.

I never knew why, but my clients that made a regular habit of running, walking, hiking, and jogging did better with their body composition goals than those who cycled, swam, or danced.

We still don’t know the whole story, but this study is a POWERFUL step in the direction of understanding the mechanisms better.

Short answer?

It turns out certain types of exercise may “turn on” genes that buffer obesity and “turn off” genes that tend to increase a person’s risk for high BMI, larger waists and hips, and higher Body Fat Percentage.

Who knew?

Gabriel has been getting in trouble at school for talking and not keeping his hands to himself.

Just before bed, I brought a white board in his room and we walked through a difficult talk together.

Sometimes the roles in our life collide that require us to prioritize who we want to be and how we manifest in the world.

From the mouth of babes…

Hey there, Coach Alex here.

This show is a bit more personal than most.

Corey Huddleston from Wisdom And Grit recently interviewed me in front of his online community in front of thousands of men to explore the answer to this, VERY IMPORTANT question:

“When does a boy become a man?”

I was raised as the oldest of 4 in a single parent home below the poverty line.

Part of my journey in manhood and fatherhood has been to become the father that I never had growing up.

Spoiler alert - I’m still growing and learning.

But there are some very powerful lessons and events that my path has brought me through that I hope to impart to my boys as the become men.

It was an awesome opportunity to share some of my most meaningful - and painful - experiences. I hope that you find it valuable!

So you’re not doing what you know you need be doing.

And you know it.

What’s it going to take for you to get serious?

I asked my social media community. The answers will surprise and resonate…

Turns out many are waiting—but don’t have to be.
