On today’s episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, I sit down with fellow Next Level nutrition coach Jennifer Orme for her third appearance on the show. In her last episode, we celebrated Jenn being in the best shape of her life at 45, but a year later, she faced unexpected health challenges that resulted in a 25-pound weight gain. After discovering an autoimmune condition, Jenn embarked on a year-long holistic journey to find the root cause of her issues. We dive into how this experience impacted her mental health, confidence as a coach, and her approach to fitness. We also discussed the often-overlooked importance of maintenance and shared tips on how to successfully navigate this crucial phase. Jenn’s  story is a powerful reminder that setbacks can be overcome, and her resilience offers inspiration to anyone facing their own challenges.

In this episode of the Next Level Health and Fitness Podcast, co-hosts Craig Smith and I dive deep into why we believe most diets fail. We explore nearly a dozen reasons, both internal and external, that prevent people from successfully losing weight and keeping it off. From mindset barriers to societal pressures, we examine the complex factors that sabotage long-term success. We also take a closer look at the widely cited statistic that 95% of diets fail, breaking it down to reveal just how misleading it can be. Our goal is to raise awareness around these common pitfalls so listeners can approach their health journeys with greater clarity and a better chance of lasting success.

In this episode of the Next Level Health and Fitness Podcast, I’m joined by my old colleague Micah Gogan—a certified strength coach, personal trainer, and athletic trainer. With his big personality and infectious energy, Micah brings a wealth of knowledge to the table as we dive into all things strength training.

We explore the key differences between lifting for strength versus hypertrophy, discuss the biggest mistakes beginners make when stepping into the gym, and break down the three most overrated and underrated exercises. Plus, you’ll hear Micah’s expert thoughts on deadlifts and why they may (or may not) deserve a place in your workout routine.

Whether you’re a seasoned lifter or just getting started, this episode is packed with valuable insights to help you optimize your strength training journey.
