Many people think burning fat during exercise equals fat loss, but the truth is more complex. <br /><br /><br />In today’s episode, we’ll discuss the difference between fat burning and fat loss—and why understanding this can transform your fitness journey. We’ll debunk the common myth that staying in a low-intensity "fat-burning zone" is the best way to lose fat. You’ll understand why your body burning fat doesn’t necessarily translate into fat loss. <br /><br />We’ll also discuss how your body uses calories for energy, how to track your caloric intake and burn, and the importance of quality nutrition in maintaining a calorie deficit. I also highlight the dangers of restrictive diets and share efficient ways to burn calories throughout the day. <br /><br /><br />I address the widespread myth of targeting belly fat and offer a comprehensive fat-loss approach, combined with regular monitoring of body composition and overall progress, which is far more effective than belly fat exercises. <br /><br />So, whether you’re struggling with stubborn belly fat or looking to kickstart your fat-loss journey, this episode is packed with actionable insights that will help you create a sustainable daily routine for lasting fat loss.

Many people think burning fat during exercise equals fat loss, but the truth is more complex. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In today’s episode, we’ll discuss the difference between fat burning and fat loss—and why understanding this can transform your fitness journey.

You’ll understand why your body burning fat doesn’t necessarily translate into fat loss. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We’ll also discuss how your body uses calories for energy, how to track your caloric intake and burn, and the importance of quality nutrition in maintaining a calorie deficit.

I'm Funk Roberts and my goal is to empower you with knowledge and tools to make informed dietary decisions that will positively impact your life. <br /><br />Sure, perhaps a Paleo diet worked for cavemen – but they only lived to 30, right? The negative impact of specific diets on your health and well-being, diets that are hyped up as quick fixes on social media, cannot be underestimated for men over 40. <br /><br />We're at that stage when we need to take our hormonal balance and cortisol levels into serious consideration as we aim for a diet that becomes a lifestyle. <br /><br />And so in this episode, I'm critiquing some of the more popular diets out there and looking at them from the perspective of a man in his 40s, 50s, 60s, or even 70s. A man who needs nutritional support to provide for his family. <br /><br />I understand that navigating the world of nutrition can be overwhelming, but I'm here to guide you every step of the way. In this episode I also offer the ultimate solution to optimizing your nutrition for long-term lifestyle success.

But there’s one hormone that doesn’t get enough love from me. This is human growth hormone.<br /><br />According to Dustin Baker, today’s guest, human growth hormone is the body's master hormone for both men and women.<br /><br />HGH is responsible for many metabolic functions, and it declines naturally with age, starting after puberty, leading to issues like loss of muscle mass and quality.<br /><br />Fortunately, some natural and synthetic ways can help you increase your HGH levels, and Dustin explains them all.<br /><br />In this episode, Dustin shares his origin story of falling in love with health and fitness in his early 20s and the journey that led him to acquire BioProtein Tech and create their flagship product, Bio Pro Plus.<br /><br />We get into the stigma around HGH treatments and why they've earned a bad reputation. Dustin explains how peptides came as a replacement but are now facing regulation.

It's a lot to handle, and sometimes, it gets overwhelming.<br /><br />Have you ever felt that pressure building up until you're ready to burst? Yeah, I've been there. Those moments of feeling swamped, burnt out, or down in the dumps are all normal responses to life's challenges.<br /><br />And guess what? You're not alone in this journey.

No holding back, no sugar-coating.<br />Mental health is a massive deal. So, let's break it down. I'm laying out the definitions for these heavy hitters, showing you how to spot them, and, most importantly, revealing the strategies to get you back in the driver's seat.<br /><br />Remember, it's okay not to be okay.

We juggle the demands of work, family, personal troubles, and the curveballs life throws at us. It&apos;s a lot to handle, and sometimes, it gets overwhelming.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have you ever felt that pressure building up until you&apos;re ready to burst? Yeah, I&apos;ve been there. Those moments of feeling swamped, burnt out, or down in the dumps are all normal responses to life&apos;s challenges.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And guess what? You&apos;re not alone in this journey. There&apos;s a good chance you&apos;re battling stress, burnout, or even depression yourself.

But here&apos;s the deal, you don&apos;t have to face it all alone. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today&apos;s episode is a deep dive into the ocean of mental health.

I&apos;m laying out the definitions for these heavy hitters, showing you how to spot them, and, most importantly, revealing the strategies to get you back in the driver&apos;s seat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Remember, it&apos;s okay not to be okay.

Maybe you’ve never had a partner and are looking for someone to share your time with. Or maybe you are single, have just transformed your body, and want to experience a new relationship. <br /><br />Is that you? If I were you, I didn’t even know where to start. <br /><br />I’m happily married, but there were no online apps when I was dating. I used to meet women at the club or at a beach. <br /><br />Now, the landscape is entirely different. And if you haven’t been in the game for a long time, you will be lost. So much has changed. But fear not! <br /><br />Today I have a guest, Koen Geron, who’ll help you learn the ins and outs of online dating, especially for men in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond. <br /><br />Koen Geron spent more than a decade studying communication, psychology, how relationships work, and what makes a person attractive, among other things. <br />He has become an expert in finding partners and has created an online business called Hovalo. Hovalo focuses on online dating for executives, entrepreneurs, creators, and professionals who struggle to find the connection they deserve. <br /><br />I had so much fun talking with Keon. I hope you enjoy it, too, while you learn some tips and strategies to embark on online dating with confidence. <br /><b><br />“See it as a process, just like fitness.

Maybe you’ve never had a partner and are looking for someone to share your time with. Or maybe you are single, have just transformed your body, and want to experience a new relationship. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is that you? If I were you, I didn’t even know where to start. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I’m happily married, but there were no online apps when I was dating. I used to meet women at the club or at a beach. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Now, the landscape is entirely different. And if you haven’t been in the game for a long time, you will be lost. So much has changed. But fear not! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Today I have a guest, Koen Geron, who’ll help you learn the ins and outs of online dating, especially for men in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Koen Geron spent more than a decade studying communication, psychology, how relationships work, and what makes a person attractive, among other things. &lt;br /&gt;He has become an expert in finding partners and has created an online business called Hovalo.

As a former professional athlete, I know about the importance of it. But only a few guys realize they even have a pelvic floor. <br />Most men think that women are the only ones with a pelvic floor and that it becomes relevant to them when they give birth. Although guys may have heard about kegel exercises or Pilates to strengthen that area of the body, they don’t believe these exercises apply to them. <br />But I have news for you. <br />That little area between the anus and the scrotum is your pelvic floor. You need to strengthen it to improve your sexual drive, the functionality of your bladder, and your performance when you train at the gym or practice sports.<br />So today, I have a guest that is a pelvic floor expert. She is Jana Danielson, a Pilates certified instructor, studio owner, and Amazon Best Selling Author. She has spent many years now educating and training people to make them aware of their pelvic floor and how strengthening it will improve their well-being exponentially. <br />Besides, she’s the creator of the Cooch Ball, the world’s first patented pelvic floor fitness tool for women.

As a former professional athlete, I know about the importance of it. But only a few guys realize they even have a pelvic floor. <br />Most men think that women are the only ones with a pelvic floor and that it becomes relevant to them when they give birth. Although guys may have heard about kegel exercises or Pilates to strengthen that area of the body, they don’t believe these exercises apply to them. <br />But I have news for you. <br />That little area between the anus and the scrotum is your pelvic floor. You need to strengthen it to improve your sexual drive, the functionality of your bladder, and your performance when you train at the gym or practice sports.<br />So today, I have a guest that is a pelvic floor expert. She is Jana Danielson, a Pilates certified instructor, studio owner, and Amazon Best Selling Author. She has spent many years now educating and training people to make them aware of their pelvic floor and how strengthening it will improve their well-being exponentially. <br />Besides, she’s the creator of the Cooch Ball, the world’s first patented pelvic floor fitness tool for women.

This is massive. This is HUGE. One in two men has this issue. It's unbelievable. <br />It's also unbelievable that this topic is taboo. Men generally don't want to talk about it. But even though we want to keep it under wraps, we need to own the fact that these things are happening to us.

But sometimes, even though you eat balanced meals, you don’t get the fiber you need. So in this episode, we talk about some products that will help you take your health to the next level to get the nutrients you need. <br />This is Part 2 of the episodes dedicated to gut health. In the previous episode, Dr. Chris Damman from Supergut explained the importance of gut health for the digestive system and overall well-being. <br />This week, I have invited Marc Washington, the CEO of Supergut. We dive into what Supergut is, what its products offer to your body, and why all of us should be taking their shakes or bars.

In this section, my co-host Flex Marks and I discuss muscle, strength training, building muscle, and getting strong. We share information for men in their 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond because we have no room for error. <br />Flex has more than 25 years of experience in the industry. He's a Certified Strength &amp; Conditioning Coach. Flex focuses on training guys online and in person. It's important to mention that he trains EVERYBODY, from beginners to athletes. Flex loves coaching people and making them strong and lean. <br />Some people are not willing to train their weak links. But they have to do it. We all have something that needs improvement. The glutes, the abs, the pecs. You must be uncomfortable addressing the parts of your body that need improvement. Functional training can help you do just that. <br />In this episode, we'll explore the world of functional training and how it can help you improve your overall fitness and ability to perform daily activities.

In fact, I used to be a big partier in my early 40s. But I have not had a drop of alcohol in over 8 years. And that is not because of an addiction. It is because I saw what it was doing to my body, health, and testosterone levels.<br /><br />NOW I know first-hand how incredible it is NOT to have alcohol in my system and its effects on my health. For me, it actually started with a DRY January challenge. You may be asking: “Dry January? What the hell is that?.” Dry January started in 2013, and more than 4,300 people pledged not to drink alcohol for the month. And yes, “dry” means abstaining from alcohol for a month—no cheat days.

The alpha men need help. Yes, there's the mindset, nutrition, exercise, recovery, and sleep, but sometimes, there's also the supplementation. Today, we have Dr. Stephen Anton joining us to talk about the Alpha Max Test 3D, an all-natural testosterone booster. Dr. Stephen Anton is a Professor and Chief of Clinical Research in the Department of Aging and Geriatric Research at the University of Florida. He is a well-established expert on the role that lifestyle factors have in influencing obesity, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disease conditions.

We’re supposed to get stronger as we get older, and we can! Joining Funk in this episode is the mobility expert, Ruston Webb, who firmly advocates that to live a pain-free life, mobility is the key.

To all the men out there, especially those who are in their 40s, 50s, and 60s, your TESTOSTERONE is KEY if you want to keep on being the ALPHA male that you are. If you want to live on with your mental, emotional, and physical health in tip-top shape, you need to keep that testosterone level from declining. To do that, you have to recognize the early signs that tell you when it’s in a normal ratio against your estrogen level or when it’s critically low. Listen in to find out what those signs are and what you can do to naturally reverse the numbers before they start becoming a threat to your manhood.<br /><br />“Testosterone means you are going to be the man you were put on this earth to be: to provide, to protect, to procreate.” —Funk Roberts<br /><br />In This Episode: <br />- Uncover the reason that’s keeping you from hitting your weight goals despite all the efforts you’re putting in with your workout.<br />- Why testosterone earned a terrible reputation this 2021 and the truth that men have to pay attention to, instead.<br />- Adverse effects of low testosterone levels that are causing men who are in their 40s, 50s, and 60s to feel helpless and less of a man.<br />- The kind of diet and lifestyle recommended for the alpha male to naturally increase their testosterone levels.<br />- Understand the role of aromatase in the decline of testosterone levels and how aromatase inhibitors are activated to suppress this decline. <br />- Bonus: A phenomenal event happening on November 16 that is sure to get the alpha brotherhood reeling with excitement!<br /><br /><br />Subscribe and Listen on iTunes<br /><a href="https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685" rel="noopener">https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-over-40-alpha-podcast/id1446632685</a> <br /> <br />Listen to This Episode on Your Favourite Podcast Channel<br /><a href="http://www.over40alphapodcast.com" rel="noopener">www.over40alphapodcast.com</a><br /><br /><br />Resources: <br />- Join over 5000 men in the Over 40 Alpha Workout and Nutrition Program for just $1 and start building your foundation for amazing health - <a href="https://www.over40alpha.com/over-40-alpha-short-sales-page1600540776041#row-163" rel="noopener">https://www.over40alpha.com/over-40-alpha-short-sales-page1600540776041#row-163</a> <br /><br /><br />Connect with Funk Roberts: <br />- Website - <a href="https://www.over40alpha.com" rel="noopener">https://www.over40alpha.com</a> <br />- Facebook - <a href="https://www.facebook.com/funkrobertsfitness/" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/funkrobertsfitness/</a><br />- Instagram - <a href="https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitness/" rel="noopener">https://www.instagram.com/funkrobertsfitness/</a><br />- Youtube - <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/FunkRoberts" rel="noopener">https://www.youtube.com/c/FunkRoberts</a>]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[We’re always putting a lot of stress on the T-word in previous episodes, but we never seem to get the emphasis across - or at least, not as strong as we need to.

But it’s not that simple, and today’s guest is here to explain why.
