Archive - Ultra Running & Destroying The Colorado Crush On A Plant Based Diet With Robbie Balenger

Everyone is creative in some way. Some may create art. Some create food. Some create businesses. For all of us, we are the creators of the life we want to live. For many of us, being creative can come with some resistance. The choice to be original and forge your own path can be one of the most difficult parts of the creative process. In this episode two members of the BPN Media team, Jordan Utter and Alex Rodriguez, join Nick on the show to talk all about what it truly means to be original, and shed some deep insight into how you should view originality and creativity. As they share with us, by eliminating distractions and working deeply, we can eliminate creative barriers and be more creative, original, and productive.

For years, there has been a stigma around runners including strength training into their workouts. For fear of injury or becoming “too big,” many people actively avoid diversifying their training in this way.   Sal Di Stefano has a different approach.  He believes that all forms of exercise are beneficial when applied properly, and that whether you are a strength or endurance athlete, you should incorporate elements of both into your training.   In this episode, the Mind Pump Media host joins Nick Bare to discuss the importance of these two forms of exercise in maintaining a healthy and fit lifestyle.  Sal dives into how strength training actually raises you metabolism and can lead to more fat loss than cardio alone.  He also covers how consistency and discipline are key in optimizing your life, and how you can make changes that will have lasting effects on you health, versus temporary, short-term improvements.   More Resources: BPN website: www.bpnsupps.com Nick’s website: www.nickbare.com Nick’s Instagram: www.instagram.com/nickbarefitness Nick’s Youtube: www.youtube.com/user/barelifenutrition   Follow Us On Social Media!
