  • EP088: How to Structure Results-Based Training Programs and Fat Loss Program Design | Part 1
    Methods are many, principles are few. Methods change, but principles never do.
    This is one of my favorite sayings. It also drives the direction of successful program design – for both your clients, and yourself.
    When it comes to program design, it's great to have as many tools in your toolbox as possible. BUT, those tools will only be effective when they’re used with the principles that shaped them in mind.
    In this episode, I dive into this concept deeper – discussing program design and some of the principles I use to build body transformation programs. I also give some strength training program examples.
    The episode is also the first part of my masterclass on program design and building results-based training programs. Both of which I will do more of—in addition to answering more questions about training programs.
    Dive in and extract as much value as you can to build your own training programs for both you, and your clients.
    Let's go
    IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:
    1. How working with a wide group of people—from all walks of life and fitness levels—built my skillset of coaching and program designer
    2. The program design rules of the road, and the principles that should guide the design of any program
    3. How to discover goals, use assessments, and other variables to get the best starting point for your program design
    4. Whether or not you can use templates to design programs, and if you can individualize programs using them
    5. Why you should write programs, not workouts, and how to reverse engineer to create the best program for your clients
    6. Different periodization models you can use and different frequency of training templates for best results
    7. The hierarchy of fat loss training and what to do if a client only has a certain amount of time to training each week
    8. The R7 system and how a 60-minute session may break down into different components
    9. Fat loss and the general population, and athletic population templates for adding power training
    10. How to program in energy system training/cardio in a simple and smart way
    And much more.
    This episode is a must listen if you're a coach or train people in some capacity.

  • EP087: Achieving the Impossible & Challenging Your Limits of Peak Performance, Potential and Experience with Matt Dawson









    I met Matt Dawson through a mutual friend and it didn't take me long to realize that we were cut from the same cloth. Like me, Matt is trying to achieve a goal that some would deem "crazy". And I knew I needed to get him on the podcast to talk about it.



    Matt’s journey started much like my own – as an athlete. Following his athletic career, he then entered the fast-paced world of investment banking – where he worked 80-100 hour work weeks and created a lot of success for himself. But life, as it so often does, threw him some curve balls which led him to discovering his purpose and the creation of two endeavours: the Dawson’s Peak Organization, and Project Seven for Soldiers; when he will attempt to break seven world records with all proceeds going to charity.



    Matt's goal is both simple and inspiring: to make a positive impact on others. In this episode of the podcast we talk about how taking on your own personal challenges can help you create the best version of yourself; while elevating those around you. This is an inspiring and impactful episode that is a must to listen to if you want to get fired up about achieving the peak of your performance.



    With that said, let's go.







    IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:



    * What led Dawson’s from sports to investment banking – where he became a high performer * Why despite Matt's success as an investment banker, he felt something was missing in his life – which led him to find purpose* What made Matt decide at the age of 37 to take on the challenge of breaking world records in mountaineering, along with some other wild records* What purpose means to Matt and what he believes you should do as an individual and as a business* Creating Dawsons Peak and inspiring transformations through pushing the boundaries of human capability* The personal mountain you must climb to achieve a transformation in your life. We talk about the limits that we impose on ourself, our goals and dreams, and how to break through them* The importance of creating social impact aside from profits (or making money) in your life* How you redirect your fears to make you as successful as possible* What you can and can’t control and how to drop your stress and anxieties so that you can achieve the impossible* Why the hardest thing for most is to sit quietly with themselves and why the mountains and adventure can help you be alone and discover yourself* Traveling and how it changes you from the inside out (ie. giving up control and working on things you can control)* Why as a society we’ve become too comfortable and how we can truly feel our best when we’re pushing and challenging ourselves* What “Bathing in the fire” and “Getting the evil out of me” mean and how it can help you become your best* And so much more. This episode is true gold.

  • EP086: 10 Biz Lessons with Social Impact & 11 Evolved Enterprise Models That “Bake In” Impact into Every Sale You Make









    Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs is clear – altruism matters! I’ve shared a lot about how much it means to me – in particular, and how it drives my decisions in business and life.







    When it comes to the importance/power of of living selflessly, one of the people I look up to is Scott Harrison. Who is the founder of Charity: Water. Like myself, Scott's past includes a firestorm of heavy partying, late nights, drugs, and a merry-go-round of banal hedonism. Rising from the ashes, he made a massive change to his life – which led him to to the innermost villages of the poorest regions of Africa. There he learned of the world's striking water crisis – which led him to dedicating his life to finding a solution to that very problem.



    In this podcast I share 10 lessons that I have learned from Scott in the building one of the most widely known and efficiently run charities on the planet.



    The latter part of the show I share 11 models of evolved enterprises that for profit businesses can employ to “bake in” impact into every sale. Including examples, as well as how I'm currently using the Evolved Enterprise Model to build my social calling: The Vigor DREAM Project.



    Let's go.







    IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:



    * Why fast cars, big houses, pretty acquaintances and partying, will NOT lead to fulfillment or happiness. And the question to ask yourself when seeking purpose.* Why you should never burn bridges because you never know which connection will become a collaboration or a helping hand when you need it most. My tips and lessons to building great connections. * Why you need to be willing to risk some money to make money. * Why if you want to earn freedom, you to risk some of your time. * What you truly need to succeed, and why you need to lose your ego to become a master.* Why people don’t buy with their minds, they buy with their hearts, and how Scott told stories people connected with.* How to use radical transparency in your business to not only create trust and more social impact, but grow your business.* The perspective you need to take and things you need to do when you fail so that you can come out on the other side a winner.* The secret to VIP’s and how to treat people.* The 11 impact models of “baking in” impact with every sale including buy one give one, direct impact, all in, give what you want, and 7 others that you can use for your for profit business to make a difference in your community, while differentiating yourself in your marketplace and increasing sales.

  • EP085: The Impact of Mentoring and Guiding Youth and How to Build Social Change into Your Business w/ Marcus Harden









    On this show I bring on Marcus Harden who is not only an OG at Vigor Ground Fitness and Performance, but also an incredible human being. Marcus has worked in eduction and with youth for close to two decades. He inspired me to start the Vigor DREAM program. A scholarship program that I am working with Marcus to develop that will mentor, guide and support young men and women through accountability, coaching, fitness and performance. Essentially, it will be the mentorship program that I could have used when I was knucklehead and getting into trouble growing up.







    Marcus Harden is the co-founder of ACE Academy, a non-profit that serves young men of color – specifically African American males and other historically marginalized young men of color. ACE Academy is part of the initial cohort of School Foundry and looks to open as a school model in Fall of 2019. Marcus is in his 15th year in education, having served at multiple levels, including educational policy, school-based counselling, Community Engagement Management for WA Charters, and currently as a Principal Intern completing the University of Washington Danforth program. Marcus is a proud Southeast Seattle native, the voice of Rainier Beach High School, a proud mentor, parent, son, karaoke legend—in his own mind—and aspiring Superhero.



    We talk about the lessons of being a great mentor and coach, how to go about creating your own programs for the kids in needs, and how to cook them into your business to create more of an impact – while also connecting yourself and your business to something meaningful. 



    Let's go.







    IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:



    * How Marcus ended up getting into youth education despite his belief that he didn't like kids or want to do anything with them* The lessons and impact of adopting 4 kids at the age of 26, where it led Marcus, and what you can learn from it* How going to 21 funerals for kids in 4 years changed him and what it’s made him take action on* The 2nd and 3rd order consequences of your decisions and how are they showing up in your life in a negative way* The MOST important thing to do when mentoring youth and coaching that most people miss* The big step of taking on the responsibility of a mentorship and the reason why you may be stuck (you’ll be surprised at the answer)* What the “love-ful pedagogy” is and how you can apply it to your business and life to make both a lot better* The biggest problems in the education system and the solutions that can change how you make a difference* The “Champ Of The Day” exercise and how you can use it in your life and business* Why you’re not your brother's keeper, but rather your brother and what this concept means for you* The story of how belief changed a whole class of kids from the worst to the best, and why you shouldn’t look at anyone’s “file”* The lesson of the “13 year old you” and how it will help you drop labels, get curious, and treat people with no judgement or labels* The AAC model (Affirmation, Accountability and Correction) and how you can use it in coaching, leadership and when mentoring youth* How to develop a impactful program in your business that will create change as well as differentiate you to help build a more profitable business

You’ll discovery everything from why good cardio is more important than strength, and how it can help you be less stressed, more productive and a nicer human.

    This episode has a lot of knowledge bombs in it. So, if you want to change your mindset, training and results for the better, you don't want to miss this one.



    Let's go.







    IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL LEARN:



    * The biggest misconception about energy systems training. * The difference between what an average gym goer thinks “cardio” and being “fit” is verses what it REALLY is, and how to achieve it.* Is cardio really more important than strength training? Joel answers this and you’ll be surprised by the answer.* A training style that helps people live a whole 10% longer, and why you MUST do this type of training.* How cardio can play a big role in keeping you less sick, more productive, less stressed, and generally a nicer human being.* Why the Tabata study had it all wrong, and what the best approach to constantly improving your fitness actually is.* The answer to this question: Can a person who does a high intensity group training program four-days a week (or more) NOT hit a wall and get crushed, and stop getting results?* Luka and Joel’s thoughts on Crossfit, OrangeTheory, F45 and other high intensity group training programs, and what these training methods are doing to people. * What the IDEAL group training program looks like, and how we can take the next steps to better programming and coaching in group training.* The two things that will be built into the gyms of the future.* The role "fun" actually plays in fitness.* Why cardio is important when it comes to building muscle and losing fat. The answer is not what you think.* Where wearable technology is going, and whether or not you should give it any importance. * Why every coach should understand, know how to explain, and program energy system training in for their clients to ensure that they get the best results, no matter their goal.
