Do you find yourself indulging in high-calorie, high-fat and -sugar foods a bit too often?
We all crave "comfort foods" or treats now and then.
During the pandemic craziness, some of us even turned to these foods to relieve stress, while others saw their nutrition habits laid waste by the lockdowns and other "new normal" nonsense.
But there are reasons to stop overeating, if you are now.
Those same reasons apply to avoiding overeating, if you don't right now.
Today, I'm sharing six really good reasons to stop or avoid overeating and get your nutrition habits on track.

Do you spend time in solitude?
I don't mean by yourself, scrolling through your social media feeds looking at what all your "friends" are doing.
Real solitude.
Disconnected from everything but the sound of your own thoughts.
Making your way through days without the background noise of social media, news and nonsense.
You might be surprised what you learn about yourself when your internal voice becomes the one you hear the loudest.
On today's episode, I'm sharing some of what I discovered when I took off, set up camp and shut out the rest of the world.
As always, I hope what I've learned will help you become better in all four pillars of your fitness and health.
Give it a listen and don't shy about sharing your thoughts!

If you listen to the news, you'd think the COVID-19 coronavirus was the end of the world.
But the truth is that we've learned an awful lot in the 7 or so months since this novel coronavirus started to spread.
In today's episode, we're looking at the work of one group of really smart people.
At the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) in Singapore, much has been discovered about COVID-19 and the virus that causes it, SARS-CoV-2.
We're learning about how it enters the body, takes over cells and even the unusual immune system responses to COVID-19.
Give it a listen and check out some of what we've learned.
Here are the links to the articles mentioned in the show.

The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic seems like the only thing on TV, radio, streaming services, news media and just about anywhere else.
Infection counts, death tolls, arguments between politicians and the breathless pandering of the hair hat idiots in the media are overwhelming to the average adult.
Can you imagine what all that can do to your kids?
Without your life experience and perspective, they can easily become terrified.
This pandemic and the free fall of fear being created around it can leave long-lasting emotional and psychological scars on your kids.
But there are things you can do to make the situation better for your kids.
Today's episode is all about some of those things.
Join me as I share some strategies and tactics for helping your kids come out of this mess healthier and happier.

Feedback is important to the training process.
Whether your athlete is learning a new lift, honing speed technique or developing a new sport skill, feedback can improve the process.
It can sometimes mean the difference between failing and succeeding.
But what if feedback is even more important than that?
What if feedback, done well and done right, can actually improve an athlete's brain?
Join me for a look at how coaching feedback impacts the developing brains of young athletes.
We'll look at how emotion, perception and experience influence the "wiring" of an athletes' brain.
I'll also offer some practical ideas for improving your feedback and communication as a coach, fitness pro or even a parent.

Youth sports, especially in the US, has taken a lot of criticism lately.
Not so much for the actual playing of the sports themselves. The criticism usually involves the behaviors, attitudes and actions of the adults involved.
Generally, it's always been thought that playing sports is good for kids.
Most people who've played youth sports would likely agree.
In today's episode, I review a study out of Montreal that links playing youth sports between 6 and 10 with better emotional health outcomes at age 12 and beyond.
Is this true? Can they back up their claims?
Listen in and get the low-down!

It's the most wonderful time of the year!
That's right!
Christmas, Hanukkah, New Year's Eve all come rolling right in after Thanksgiving!
It's like one calorie-riddled binge opportunity after another!
Parties, errands, decorating, family get-togethers!
Food, time crunches, stress, booze...
It can all add up to a serious post-holiday bulge!
But you can avoid it if you're prepared.
And no, you don't have to skip this one this year. (Little tribute to the Waitresses there!)
Check out this episode and I'll share some tips on how to have fun and not end up fat and "un-jolly!"

What's the key to success?
Is there really a "secret sauce" for long-term success and achievement?
What separates those who push through the hard times from those who bail when the going gets tough?
Angela Duckworth is the author of the book "Grit" and a researcher at the University of Pennsylvania.
In this episode, I take a look at a huge study done on the factors that predict success.
Ms. Duckworth and her colleagues looked at over 11,000 West Point cadets to see what personality traits separated the successful from the unsuccessful.
Give it a listen. I think you'll find it interesting!
