Anthony Zorzetto (@mr.zorzetto) is a father, husband and men’s sobriety coach. Anthony has battled addiction, homelessness and hitting rock-bottom and overcome all of it to now having a thriving family, business and leading other men on the same path. The Possible Principle is his 90 day 1-1 coaching program to help men eliminate alcohol from their life. 

Addiction is a crazy beast. One that more people than many of us realize struggle with, but also one that help is available for. It was a pleasure to chat with Anthony and learn about what addiction really is, learn about some of the early warning signs, some of the steps towards sobriety, and how we can help those in your life who may be heading down the path. 

I tried to make some connections back to fitness in this chat, but it turns out that fitness is actually an integral part of Anthony’s coaching program. It never ceases to amaze me how impactful improving physical health can be in all aspects of our life.

This was a powerful conversation and one that I personally learned a ton from and I’m sure you will too. Maybe this conversation will even save someone’s life. Please share this with anyone you know who is struggling, help is available.

The end of the year is always fun and also almost always a time of year where people gain weight without realizing. Or maybe even while realizing, and thinking it’s inevitable. Fortunately, this episode contains everything you need to know in order to maintain your weight and physique through the holidays. 

It begins by realizing it’s possible, and then by realizing that maintenance is also progress. It’s not only weight loss, or muscle gain… there is a middle road where you can just cruise. And honestly, this is where you want to spend most of your time anyways. Luckily, it’s also pretty easy when you have a decent plan. 

In the episode I go over how you can structure your workouts to make this simple, with plenty of adjustments for whatever your situation is. I also talk about my nutrition strategies around the holidays and how I personally use them to come out ahead. Intermittent fasting is big for this, as well as some big boy decision making. 

Good guide here for the end of the year, put it to use!

Chris Tahmazis (@christahmazisfit) is a football performance specialist and strength coach. When his own playing career came to an end he took up coaching and hasn’t looked back. He’s currently opening his first facility in Melbourne to continue training athletes and high performers in an expanded setting.

When you get so many good things in your life through sports, it’s only natural to want to pass it along. From staying out of trouble, being involved in your community and generally feeling physically amazing while others feel “old”, the list is endless. Chris has experienced all of these things and only wants to give back now.

We discuss how training - and even more specifically, training like an athlete - is the real key to longevity. Chris also lays out a roadmap of how to get there if you’re just getting started (or, re-started). Many people only in their 30’s say they start to feel older, and this just simply isn’t true if you’re training and taking care of your body well. 

We also discuss why and how to use your fitness data like Whoop bands or Oura rings, simple strategies for improving your nutrition, and why all kids should be involved in sports. 

To keep up with everything Chris has going on, follow him on IG and Youtube.

Bryan Krahn (@bryankrahn) is back to discuss what guys over 50 need to do to get abs… and whether or not they should even try. Check out episodes 231 and 153 with Bryan for more of the background on training, nutrition and healthy lifestyle principles specific to guys 50+. Bryan truly is one of the best in the world at helping these guys transform their body and their life.

In this episode we discuss the process towards chasing that elusive 6-pack and truly how important building muscle is. Bryan introduces his concept of “cautious urgency” - you need to build muscle NOW, but while minimizing risks. 

This episode blends what many of us feel perfectly. We want the aesthetics, and maybe that’s what draws you in; but the true value of strength training is in the health and greater life advantages that you will find in the gym. 

To keep up with Bryan, follow him on IG and X and check out his website.

Live and learn, so they say! We all make mistakes and of course there’s nothing wrong with that. The only thing that is a shame is when we don’t learn from our mistakes. And sort of by extension, when we don’t learn from the mistakes of others as well.

I made my fair share of mistakes in the gym, things I wasted time on, or tried that didn’t work, or just incorrect approaches to training and fitness, and I want to share them with you so that you can avoid them. 

These are not minor technique things like doing an exercise with imperfect technique. These are more broad approaches to fitness and training that ended up costing me lots of time, money and most importantly, gains.

Hopefully you avoid these, and end up better than me!

Sean Hyson (@seanhyson) is a fitness writer and coach of over 20 years. He’s been around some of the absolute top people in the industry for a long time including Arnold Schwarzenegger, many UFC fighters, Hulk Hogan and tons more. He’s written articles and been an editor for Muscle & Fitness, Men’s Health and many other top publications in the industry. 

Taking all these years of learning and experience and distilling it down to the simplest and most effective tools, methods and lessons for the average person is now Sean’s mission. There is a lot to learn from the pioneers and the people at the absolute peak of fitness - but it’s not always applicable to everyday people. 

If we can distill their lessons down into the most important parts, that’s when people will win. That’s what we spent this episode doing - discussing the most important, simplest things you should be doing to have long-term fitness success. 

Sean has a great way of breaking things down and simplifying fitness that I think you will find extremely helpful. 

To keep up with everything Sean has to offer, check out his website and follow him on IG.

In this episode I get a few thoughts off my chest regarding some current events and where I think fitness information fits into everything. Fitness is unbelievably important, and sure I am biased, but I truly believe that improving fitness at a population level will do well to make the world a better place. 

I got into some Q&A sent in from listeners and covered a nice range of topics:

• How to boost metabolism
• Whether walking with a weighted vest is worth it
• A truth about the fitness industry that most people wouldn’t admit
• Changes in training after turning 30
• How much alcohol affects fitness progress
• How to know if you’re training hard enough
• A few biohacking things that actually work

And any other tangents I took off of answering those!

Thanks for listening, I appreciate you more than you know.

Andy Morgan (@andy_rippedbody) is a training and nutrition coach, author, and founder of Ripped Body. Over his career he’s helped thousands of men achieve life changing transformations and been a prominent voice in the fitness industry for evidence based fitness information. 

In this episode Andy and I discuss his concept of “physique purgatory” where many guys are stuck. In short: you’re trying all sorts of different things, experimenting, being consistent and yet… not making much progress. Andy works with men like this all the time, and helps them break through. 

We also discuss Andy’s recent injury and his plans on getting back to full health and strength with his recovery, which is relevant to all of us who will pick up various injuries in life along the way. 

With winter approaching, Andy gives a great breakdown on how & why to bulk effectively and efficiently so that you actually build some muscle instead of just gaining fat. 

Jam packed episode with tons of practical takeaways! To learn more from Andy, visit the Ripped Body website and follow him on IG.

James Oliver is the founder & CEO of Atlas Bar. What started as a need to fill a nutritional gap while travelling has grown to over $1 million in sales in the highly competitive protein bar market - and for good reason. Atlas Bars are made only with quality ingredients, and have all the protein you need with nothing that you don’t. 

James and I sat down to discuss the story of how he built Atlas Bar, and this really led into a discussion about the food industry at large. With more ingredients and companies and scientific breakthroughs than ever, layered on top of clever marketing, it’s really tough to know what you’re even buying. Since James runs a food product company, he understands how it all works and really breaks it down for us. 

This is eye opening, because at the end of the day we can all complain about the food system all we want, but we are in charge. You still get to choose what you purchase and what you don’t. And if you want to make a change, that’s the way to do it. James was very helpful in bringing many aspects of the “system” to light, that are certainly helpful for all your nutrition needs. 

The Atlas Bars are also great as an on-the-go protein bar and don’t have a ton of extra stuff in them. Really good bar to have in handy if you find yourself constantly low on protein (almost everyone) and always on the go (also almost everyone). Visit the Atlas Bar website here to purchase and learn more.
