In this energizing episode of Coaching In Session, host Michael Rearden welcomes Dr. Len Lopez—nutrition and fitness expert with nearly 30 years of experience—to break down what moves the needle in long‑term health. Instead of chasing perfection, Dr. Len introduces his 5 STEPS approach —a simple, accountability-driven framework that helps you consistently “do better” without falling into all-or-nothing thinking.
They dive into why so many people burn out on strict programs, how to “train smart” instead of just harder, and the mindset shift required to create real change in your body, energy, mood, and resilience. If you’ve been stuck restarting diets, overtraining, or waiting for motivation to appear magically, this episode gives you a sustainable blueprint to build health one deliberate choice at a time.
Key Takeaways:
✅ Nearly 30 years of experience taught Dr. Len that natural health is built, not hacked
✅ “Five Steps” focuses on better, not perfect, gradual improvement compounds
✅ You don’t have to (and won’t) eat perfectly—choose the better option consistently
✅ Smart training prevents burnout, plateaus, and injury
✅ Mindset + accountability = sustainable results (not short sprints)
✅ Whole, natural foods fuel performance, clarity, and recovery
✅ Fitness must match your current level and adapt as you progress
✅ Consistency beats intensity when building lifelong habits
✅ Tracking simple daily actions reveals patterns & blind spots
✅ Long-term health is a deliberate practice, not a 30‑day challenge

Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
