Stress-Reduced Fat Loss Podcast

Macros are an easy for many coaches to guide people to their fitness and physique goals. But for many clients, there is a gap between what the numbers say and what their body tells them. Showing up as a lack of sustainable results. Or other symptomology they don't want to experience. Like, thyroid issues, hormone shifts, sleep changes and more.

Truly understanding the importance of GREAT digestion is the missing link. No macro system can last forever without it. The yo-yo answers of walking 1 milli steps a day, or eating less than your child, or relying on gum and stimulants eventually get old. And the body adapts and shifts. If it does keep working then fine. But if you are reading this right now, chances are...macros in your 40s, 50s or 60s ISN'T working anymore.

Taking the steps to work on digestion first is never a bad thing. Absorption of nutrients is better. Processing of food is easier without things like indigestion or bloating. Even expelling waste regularly and efficiently happens in a frequency that is necessary. Overall it just allows you to eat the RIGHT amount of food. As many of my students find that their clients don't need to be in a caloric deficit to get leaner or in better shape.

In this episode of The Stress-Reduced Fat Loss™ Podcast, I speak about how if great digestion is overlooked, counting macros can take a turn for the worst.

Retatrutide has quickly risen as the most well known peptide for holistic health transformation connoisseur. Many say it has passed BPC 157 has the uncrowned king of peptides. Even pharmaceutical companies fear its pull from patients. Slowly leaving peptides like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro in the rearview mirror.

Reta's allure comes from its triple agonist features. Its a GLP 1- Slowing the desire to eat and snack in the brain A GIP- slowing the gastric emptying so as to decrease the impending insulin spike. And a Glucagon agonist- helping to release stored energy into the blood stream and oxidize stored fat in the liver. These 3 together, help improve insulin sensitivity and as a result weight loss and fat loss as well as metabolic health drastically improves for most.

But behind all of the benefits for many, are habits that may still be missing. And they show up as food noise, cravings and desire for alcohol etc. As a STRESS-REDUCED FAT LOSS Practitioner, I look at root causes for dysfunction. In many cases, real foundational habits have never been addressed or developed. Like managing stress, understanding how to combine foods properly and much more. Many will take these as signs to increase their dose. A tricky trap to navigate long term.

In this episode of The Stress-Reduced Fat Loss™ Podcast, I speak about 4 habits to focus on even when on Reta. Which will only make it work BETTER!

Almost 60% of client coming into your business will have some sort of constipation issue. This can be a tricky issue, if you aren't sure how to handle it. As it can take more changes than just drinking water.

This could mean a hug from a loved one or even laughing with friends. Lastly, working on the chemistry of why. Food combinations, the right supplements, minerals etc.

Getting clients results is the name of the game as practitioners. But we all have that one client that we just could not figure out. Maybe their body just didn't respond to protocols. Or it took much longer for it to.

There are 4 different things you want to look at when doing a nutritional physical with your client/patient. First is subjective. What is your client feeling? Next objectively. This is looking at your client for visible signs or symptoms.

As you progress, you are looking at deeper testing tools. And eventually running labs. This gives greater ability to solve more problems. You may be surprised at the many different symptoms that show with vitamin deficiencies.

In this episode of The Stress-Reduced Fat Loss™ Podcast, host Ken Sylvan speaks with Dr. Ken Kinakin about how and why to do a NUTRITIONAL PHYSICAL with your clients...and how it's a vital part of any clients fitness journey.

There comes a point in every practitioners career, where you realize that more needs to be focused on with your client/patient than just nutrition, supplements and training.

Developing as a coach is about more than just knowledge of your craft. It's also about guiding people to their goals. So understanding what that takes can make all the difference in your business and your clients life.

Enter Shadow Work! What is it? Many might say it's focusing on the parts of you that would normally be considered unfavorable. But it is actually a 5 STEP process to unpack limiting beliefs and other patterns that keep you stuck in life ( and in body composition)

But as practitioners I always say, before you do things with clients... you need to try it first! This means looking inward and setting boundaries. What you may notice is holding on to less emotional weight, which can lead to less physical weight.

There is always a way. Something my parents taught me. I remember the first time I read about peptides. I had been struggling with a soft tissue injury and treatment wasn't helping. I read about a magical substance to drastically improve healing.

Enter peptides. :What are they? A compound made of at least 2 amino acids linked together. Peptides exude different things in the body. Some of them like BPC-157 can repair not even tendons, muscle, teeth or bone. But also intestines.

BPC-157 is stable in human gastric juice and helps repair both the upper and lower GI tract. This can be taken orally, intramuscularly or sub cutaneous. LL-37 is an anti-microbial peptide that can improve gut recovery from microbe overgrowth.

There are even peptides like Semax that can help with hours of focus and concentration. Without disrupting sleep like caffeine or affecting the nervous system negatively. Peptides have an amazing specificity for its target, with a short half life. Meaning very little organ or tissue build and side effects.

In this episode of The Stress-Reduced Fat Loss™ Podcast, host Ken Sylvan talks with Dr. Calvin Ng about peptides. How they are important ways to help your clients/patients repair and improve health challenges.

I was told by one of my greatest mentors Charles Poliquin, that if you learn more, you earn more. I never forgot that. So I have always read books, that set me apart from everyone else.

Developing as a coach is about more than just knowledge of your craft. It's also about guiding people to their goals. So understanding what that takes can make all the difference in your business and your clients life.

Many times we gravitate so reads that we are comfy with. Books that are in a direction we always go in. But that isn't how you evolve. Reading about practices you didn't even know were out there takes courage. But can upgrade your toolbox for that one client who needs you.

I shared books that shifted my focus has a human being first and a coach second. These books also made me a better person. And I firmly believe you can't lead anyone where you haven't gone.

It's been said that 30 year old men today have testosterone levels of their grandfathers from the 1970s. I am not sure how accurate that is. But definitely more men are suffering from less than ideal levels of testosterone.

The cosmetic industry is a multi billion dollar industry!! When the difference in one ingredient can shift the profit margins way up, many companies have chosen the dollar over the health of the consumer. Many of your clients are wearing cosmetics of some sort.

Much of your cosmetics may cover up blemishes or make your skin tone more vibrant. But how many of them do that in a way that toxify your liver, gut and lymphatic system? How many of them are sourced from places carefully. While helping the natives of that place?
