The Fit Dad Project

The Fit Dad Project is the podcast for busy dads and men over 40 who are tired of feeling overweight, exhausted, and stuck in the cycle of starting over every Monday.

Hosted by Derek Schell, certified nutrition coach, fitness trainer, and founder of The Minimalist Gym, this show cuts through the noise and delivers practical, no-BS strategies to help you lose fat, build muscle, and reclaim your energy without spending hours in the gym or following restrictive diets.

Sustainable fat loss
Hormone and metabolic health
Mindset and habit change
Stress management and recovery
Becoming the kind of man who leads by example
And some fun stuff mixed in as well!

The mission of The Fit Dad Project is simple:

Help busy dads build a stronger body, sharper mind, and healthier lifestyle so they can show up with more energy, confidence, and presence for the people who matter most.
