The More Than Fitness Podcast With Matt McLeod

Susan is the most badass 59-year old that I know. She first worked with the band, then she was a middle school counselor, then—in her 50s—she decided to help people with their diet and exercise. Now, she's got almost 100K followers on Instagram and is running her online coaching business full-time. She also works with our mutual friend, Jordan Syatt, as a co-coach of their "Inner Circle" membership site. It was an amazing chat about her struggles with yo-yo dieting, conquering her fear of gaining fat, and how, even at 59, wakes up every day doing something she loves. Give it a listen, and check her out below.

In this solo episode, I go over a shit-ton of practical tips and tricks you can use to stop ruining your diet when the weekend rolls around. For most people, Monday through Thursday is easy. But when Friday hits, their only solution is to, "try their best." We all know how that turns out. Luckily, that'll all change after listening to this one as I touch on multiple approaches you can take based off your individual goals. Whether it's dinner with friends, attending a bridal shower, or grabbing some drinks at the bar—I cover it all so you can enjoy life, but still nail your fitness goals. Hope you enjoy.

PS: do me a quick favor and leave me a rating and review if you learned even one thing from this episode. It would mean the world to me and allows me to help more people.

This was an in-person conversation with Cody and Austin during our stay in Philadelphia together for a conference. We shared a bottle of wine, turned the mic on, and the outcome was a nearly 2-hour long talk about fitness, nutrition, business, relationships, life, and more. As the minutes went on, the drunker we became, so make sure you stick this one through until the end. I have a feeling there will be many, many more conversations like this one in the future, so I hope you enjoy.

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.

I had the honor of chatting with a legend in this episode of The More Than Fitness Podcast. Bret Contreras, "The Glute Guy," has found a niche and developed business after business in a market where it’s hard to be heard. His workouts, training, books, studies, and experiences have led him to become a gym-owning serial entrepreneur that’s kicking ass on Instagram. The episode starts with him explaining the evolution of the "The Glute Guy" and ends with him breaking down what's missing in the fitness industry today. And if you wait until the very end, you'll discover Bret's vast knowledge on Whitney Houston when his phone unexpectedly starts playing on-air. That alone makes this a must-listen episode. Enjoy!

This is actually an excerpt from a presentation that I performed for the dietetics profession class at my alma mater, the University of Kentucky. There are 5 lessons that I thought were paramount to my career success up to this point, so this is a solo episode where I break each one down. I can promise you'll find at least one nugget of information in here that will make listening to this one worth it. Enjoy!

In this conversation, I sat down in-person with an extraordinary guest: my older brother, Blake. He's 28 years old and currently works at Tailor Made Compounding here in Lexington, KY. I may have gotten the height and dashing good looks in the family, but Blake definitely got the brains. He's the head pharmacist in charge at Tailor Made, but he didn't start in this position. He first worked at a local pharmacy, your typical 9-5 workplace like CVS or Walgreens. Then, one day about 2 years ago when every star in the universe aligned, he got the opportunity of a lifetime to work at a new startup—a startup that just earned the 21st spot on the Inc 500 list for fastest-growing businesses in the nation—where they compound peptides for big-name clients, including A-List celebrities, athletes, and more. It's a very exciting time for my brother and I couldn't be more proud of him. But, best of all? He's expecting his first newborn son in the next few months. You won't want to miss this one.

In this solo episode, I go over a new concept that I've created after years of working in the industry: Fitness Essentialism. I've gone to the extremes of fitness when I earned my title as a natural pro bodybuilder, I've spent thousands of hours in school to earn my Registered Dietitian credential, and I've coached hundreds of people to reach their fitness goals. SO, I say all that to say this: I feel like I know some shit. I know what's important and what's not. And today, I wanted to teach you what I've learned to get the best results possible—not everything—but only the most essential. Enjoy!
