Coffee and a bagel.

That’s how most men start the day—and it’s also how they start gaining belly fat, storing toxins, crashing their energy, and tanking their testosterone without even realizing it.

Here’s the truth: your body is running on autopilot, and that autopilot is programmed to make you fat.

In this episode, I’m joined by transformation expert and my good friend Coach Dimitri Giankoulas, as we break down exactly how glucose, insulin, food timing, and hidden sugars are quietly sabotaging your results.

We get into how processed carbs rewire your metabolism, how eating “wrong” in the morning can wreck the entire day, why most men are insulin resistant by 40, and what to do about it, starting today.

We also challenge the idea of “body types” and talk straight about what’s really behind the so-called “endomorph excuse.”

If you’re over 40 and can’t figure out why the fat won’t come off, even when you train, this episode is your wake-up call.

Let’s lock in.

Old gym tees. Washed-out jeans. Beat-up sneakers.

That’s what most men are still wearing, even after transforming their bodies, rebuilding their lives, and getting back in the game.

But here's the thing...

The way you dress tells the world how to treat you. It reflects your confidence. It amplifies your presence. It speaks before you ever open your mouth.

In this episode, I’m joined by Antonio Centeno, founder of Real Men Real Style, former Marine Corps officer, and one of the most respected men’s style coaches in the world.

Antonio breaks down the exact steps to upgrade your wardrobe without wasting money, losing your identity, or looking like you’re trying too hard.

We talk suits, shirts, pants, and shoes... but more importantly, we discuss how style shapes your mindset, your marriage, your career, and your ability to lead.

Let’s dive in.

Homeless at 16. Seven kids. 60+ countries. A life built with intention.

This one hit deep.

Greg Denning is a man on a mission. He’s a high-performance coach, a world-traveling husband and father, and the kind of leader every man over 40 needs to hear from.

Today, we’re talking about how to lead with purpose, build your legacy, and show up as the formidable family man your family needs.

Greg’s story is wild. Growing up in chaos, leaving home as a teenager, sharing a burrito with his buddy while sleeping on a floor, and now? He’s got a thriving marriage, adult kids he mentors, and a powerful presence rooted in discipline and values.

We’re going all in on the real issues men face. Feeling inadequate, carrying anger, struggling with direction, and thinking it’s too late to change.

Greg breaks down how to flip that story, how to stop playing the victim, and how to level up even if you feel overwhelmed, beaten down, or burned out.

He drops absolute gems on parenting, faith, fitness, legacy, and why being a man is about way more than paying bills and showing up to work.

This is one of those episodes that stays with you.

Let’s go.
