Is salt really the enemy—or have we been misled all along?

In this eye-opening episode, I dive deep into the powerful insights I uncovered after reading The Salt Fix by cardiovascular research specialist Dr. James DiNicolantonio. From debunking the myth that salt is the root of chronic disease to exploring how modern food and beverage industries have villainized salt while quietly pumping us full of sugar, this episode will challenge everything you think you know about sodium.

I break down the real science behind salt, how your body uses it daily, the surprising symptoms of salt deficiency, and why your performance, sleep, recovery, and even mood could be suffering from a lack of it. I also share my personal experience swapping out energy drinks for mineral-rich natural salts and how it’s impacted my training and energy levels.

What is functional strength - and how is it different from regular strength training? In this deep-dive episode, I break down the science and real-world application of training not just for aesthetics or performance, but for longevity and everyday resilience.

I explore how functional strength supports your body in real life...picking up kids, getting off the floor, carrying groceries, or preventing injury, and why building it starts with the internal stuff: your joints, soft tissue, and nervous system.

You’ll learn how functional strength blends with mobility training, how to prep your body for sustainable strength, and why compensations from poor movement patterns are silently holding you back. We also explore the Centenarian Decathlon, Dr. Peter Attia’s powerful longevity framework, and how to start training today for the life you want at 80, 90, and beyond.

Whether you’re an athlete, a busy professional, or just trying to feel better in your body—this episode will shift how you think about training.
