- 4 Tips To Avoid Missing Workouts When You're "Too Tired" | Minisode #117
Everyone knows consistency is key to making progress, yet it's easier said than done. Making the responsible decision is already hard enough, but when you’re tired from work, school, kids, whatever, it makes it almost impossible if you don’t have a plan. So whether you’re someone who does shift work, someone with a 9-5 job, or even one of the psychopaths who workout before work even starts—these four tips are for you.

15 min - Fat Loss Diet Grocery Store List | Minisode #116
"What should I eat to lean up?" This is such a common question I get, but if I just ramble off a list of foods, it won't get you far. What's important is WHY I gave you this specific list. And in this Minisode, I give you the list, but I also give you the mental framework behind my approach, which includes three specific categories I think are important for a complete fat loss diet grocery list. I've used these for myself and hundreds of others, so I'm stoked to share them with you in this one. Hope you enjoy!

17 min - Jared Hamilton — The Psychology of Fat Loss, Preparing For Adversity, & Doing Inner Work | MTFP Ep.105
My good friend Jared is back on the podcast today for the third time and we go DEEP. Jared is an online fitness coach and he is extremely passionate about the psychology behind behavior change, specifically around fat loss. In this episode, we cover work environments, building better habits, identifying triggers, healing your "inner child," overcoming Coronavirus adversity, being busy vs being productive, doing self-audits, what Jared has learned from therapy, working as a distraction from negative emotions, gaining self-awareness, being more intentional, and much, much more. Cannot recommend this one enough as Jared is an excellent speaker, awesome coach, and wonderful dude with tons of wisdom to share.

1 hr 1 min - How To Bust Through A Fat Loss Plateau | Minisode #115
It can be so frustrating when you've made progress in losing weight, only for it to abruptly come to a halt. You're doing all the right things, at least you think, and then one day... nothing. Then, nothing the next day too. And the day after that. Despite your efforts, nothing is happening. Doubt creeps in and you start second-guessing yourself. You might even give up altogether. It can be a vicious cycle to navigate. But it's also exactly why I made this Minisode to help. I give my best advice on if you should diet harder, take a break, what the "whoosh effect" is, and the bare minimum for what you should track. Hope it helps.

14 min - How Much Caffeine Is Too Much? (What The Science Says) | Minisode #114
The one drug in the world that we're all addicted to and everyone jokes about: caffeine. Whether it's through energy drinks, coffee, tea, or pre-workout, we all love it. But, unfortunately, it IS still a drug and we need to be aware of its potential drawbacks. So in this Minisode, I cover how caffeine actually works, the benefits and side effects of caffeine, how much you should take on a regular basis, how much is too much, and my own experiments with caffeine. Hope it helps!

16 min - [REPLAY] Mike Vacanti — Wrestling With Life: Fitness, Family, Fear, Success, Goals, Religion, Money, & More! | MTFP Ep.39
No new episode for this week, so we're throwing it back to one of my favorite episodes with one of my favorite people. Mike has been an online fitness coach for several years, coaching hundreds (possibly thousands) of people, one of them being millionaire serial entrepreneur Gary Vaynerchuk. I was lucky enough to catch Mike for an in-person interview while I was in NYC, and he did not disappoint. We started off talking about the "75 Hard" challenge he's been doing for the past few weeks, re-igniting his passion for fitness, then we veered into becoming nihilistic and gaining a psychological grasp on religion, and ended talking about "money dials" and what Mike is excited for in the future. Obviously, there was a bit of everything in this one. I really hope you enjoy it.

59 min - How Long Should You Diet on A Cut? | Minisode #113
You read online about a 30-day diet fix or a 12-week transformation program, but is there actually a "right" amount of time you should be dieting? If you've been dieting for what seems like forever or if you're about to begin a cut, then this Minisode is for you. I go over the pros and cons of different lengths and "intensities" of a diet period, along with providing a few examples. After listening to the examples and weighing your options, you should leave this Minisode with a general idea for how you should approach your next cut (or, if you should end your current one). Hope it helps!

13 min - 4 Science-Backed Intensity Techniques To Make Your Workouts More Fun | Minisode #112
Boring workouts lead to missed workouts and missed workouts lead to an unhappy you. But on the flip side, if you're concerned about optimizing your workouts for muscle growth, you can't get "variety-happy" and constantly switch things up or "program hop." So in this Minisode, my goal was to give you some intensity techniques that will not only spice up your workouts, but also be aligned with the current hypertrophy science. Hope you enjoy!

16 min - How I Got Started In Fitness & Coaching: The Matt McLeod Origin Story | MTFP Ep.103
Let me first just say that I tried to keep this episode as valuable as possible for you and not limit it to me rambling about myself. If you've listened to the podcast for a while, you've probably heard bits and pieces of this story, but you haven't heard the whole thing. People often ask how I got started in my fitness journey or how I got into my coaching career, so I wanted to use this episode as an evergreen piece of content to turn people to. Not only did I tell my story, but I touched on some of my failures, inflection points, and "ah-ha" moments that helped me along the way. Hope you enjoy this little journey of mine, and if it gave you an idea or inspired you in any way, then it was worth it. Appreciate you for listening.

45 min - Why Your Rest Periods Are Causing You To Lose Muscle | Minisode #111
There's this common misconception with growing muscle that people sometimes get confused. The misconception is that sometimes things can "feel" effective, but they are actually detrimental to their progress. In my experience, rest periods are a perfect example of this. People are busy. They get bored easily in the gym in-between sets. So they want to rush through the workout. They want to sweat. They want to feel tired. But the problem is that's not always conducive to muscle gain. And in this Minisode, I show you the exact mistakes they—and you—might be making and what to do instead so you don't leave gains on the table. Hope it helps!
