Your Fitness Money Coach Podcast

Today we re-visit the Good Book for some powerful and timeless money lessons. 

Jeff Bezos might be the richest person in the world right now but his wealth is a drop in the bucket compared to what King Solomon’s would be. 

Proverbs is considered the book of wisdom and you don’t need to look any further to develop a money mindset. 

Listen up and take notes on this one as I share 5 life-changing money lessons from King Solomon. 

We c...

I always enjoy it when people I follow share their mistakes.   It helps me to realize/remember that they too are human.   The truth is nobody has it all together and we all make mistakes, sometimes really painful ones.   While mistakes can be a valuable teacher, it’s even better to learn from the mistakes of others.   Many people just went through a crisis with their business and finances, and it seems like the economic rollercoast...

Can you relate to either of these problems?

First, you have decent money coming in but because of the way it flows in, it’s difficult to allocate it to the right areas. To top it off, expenses can be all over the place. One month you may need some new equipment and the next, payroll goes up. How do you make sure everything is covered?

Many people know what they should do but have trouble doing it. Deep down they know a purchase isn...

I know I’m always excited for you to hear podcast episodes and interviews but this one truly is a treat. 

Eric Ruth has been in the game for a long time and has built multiple, massively successful businesses. One of them, NPE, was up over 5 mil at the point where he got out. 

If you follow the advice in this interview, I defy you not to dramatically improve your business and life. 

Here is just some of what you’ll learn:

The diffe...

If I’m completely honest, there were a couple of podcast episodes where I sort of “mailed it in.”

Don’t get me wrong, the content was solid. It’s just that I was a bit rushed and was more focused on “getting it shipped” than I was on the quality. 

It’s a common trap fitness pros fall into. We are juggling so many balls that sometimes the important stuff begins to slip. 

When my wife told me she noticed it, it was a real wake-up cal...

My interview with Tony Gentilcore is one of the most well-rounded ones I’ve had on the show.

We covered so many important topics I wasn’t sure what to call it. 

Here are just some of the things we discussed. 

Tony has managed to create a great following and he did it the right way. 

He’s humble to say that he had good “luck” but we know that luck is when preparation meets opportunity. 

I like the way he simplifies the process of cr...

Today’s episode is called Staying on Purpose.

While I’ve recorded other episodes about creating a vision, today is more about staying on purpose.

Losing hope is something I don’t want you to experience.

We can all get discouraged and life can beat us up but it’s crucial that we don’t lose hope and give up.

There are some keys to persevering and staying on purpose and in this short episode, I share some specific strategies you can u...

I’m excited to share my interview with my good friend, Marcus Brugger with you. 

Marcus is a fitness industry veteran and is the owner of the National Stretching Institute. 

He explains how he fully funded his retirement account by stretching his clients but this interview is much more than that. 

The lessons shared on how to navigate change and how to deal with success are gold!

Marcus and I discuss:

How we met - There is a huge l...

Are we headed for a recession? It certainly looks that way.

Will it be the worse thing ever? I don't think so. 

Are there good things about it? Absolutely,  but tune in to today’s show to learn:

What a recession is - This might surprise you

What causes them and how often they occur

Where the opportunity lies - Don’t miss this one!

How to stay focused on what you want

How to develop a foolproof strategy to come out stronger than eve...

Micah Logan is only the second guest I’ve invited on the show twice so hopefully, you can see I value what he has to say and felt another conversation would be useful. Micah was on episode 76 and was titled Lessons in Economics.  

This time Micah is back and we discussed 3 important topics. 

First, it was all about lessons from Covid. These are valuable takeaways that if we can learn from can help us strive for years to come. Let’s...

Today’s podcast contains lessons straight out of the Good Book. 

The Parable of The Talents is one of my favorite stories in the bible and contains timeless lessons for us about money, work, and our abilities. 

I did a whole presentation on the topic but recorded some key takeaways for you. 

A lot of people talk about reaching more of their potential but neglect to understand what the process to get there actually looks like. 

This...

I’m excited for you to hear my interview with Holly Rigsby.  I originally met Holly because she is the wife of fitness business coach and friend/mentor Pat Rigsby. 

Holly and I discussed some really important things including:

“Balancing” a growing business with marriage/family life

Time management - Holly has a really unique and effective approach to getting things done. This alone is worth the listen. 

Personal routines to overcome...

In today’s show, I share an actual story that happened recently in my business.

Most trainers are uncomfortable with sales calls but this one was beyond awkward.

All this person wanted was to know how much it was and didn’t care about anything else.

Realizing she wasn’t a good fit for us, check out how I handled it.

I’ve been in the fitness business over 20 years and this was one of the most unique conversations with a prospect tha...

Today’s show is an interview with is with Fitness Industry Leader Greg Justice.

Greg is a best-selling author, speaker, entrepreneur, 2017 National Fitness Hall of Fame Inductee, and owner of AYC Health & Fitness since 1986. He’s authored many books and is also co-owner of Scriptor Publishing.

More important than that, entire he’s a great human being. It was an absolute pleasure talking with him.

I know you will be better for l...

Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you’ve been hearing a lot about inflation.

From January 2021 to January 2022 inflation was 7.5%! That’s the most it’s been for a 12 month period since 1982!

This is definitely something we need to pay attention to.

For that reason, I recorded a short episode about the topic.

In this bite-sized episode, I discuss what inflation is, if it’s good or bad, why it happens, and how we can respond to...

Today’s interview is with Mike Boyle who is known worldwide as one of the foremost experts in the field of strength and conditioning. You can read his full bio here. It was an awesome conversation and I’m glad to be able to share it with you.

I can’t think of a better recipe for success than find someone who has done what you want to do, ask them how they did it, and then follow the steps.

Here we have a chance to learn valuable le...

Now that we are into Q2 of 2022, it’s an especially important time to revisit your goals, reflect on how you’re doing in relation to them, and course-correct as needed. If you're listening to this in the future, the same principles apply!

Many people set New Year’s resolutions that are already long forgotten.

Others set goals but then never look at them.

The best know that setting a goal is only the first step. From there, we n...

I’m always teaching the value of continuous learning.

One of the ways to do that is by making a commitment to read.

One book that comes up in almost every discussion about great books is The Richest Man in Babylon.

In today’s podcast, I dive into one of the important concepts from the book, 7 Cures to a Lean Purse.

While the classic was written almost 100 years ago with a setting in Ancient Babylon, the 7 cures apply just as much, ...

I have a unique interview today with Eric Chessen. It’s kind of crazy that I did BJJ with Eric over 20 years ago, lost touch, and here he is on my podcast!

A lot has happened to both of us in those 20 years. 

I’m excited to bring this interview to you today because of Eric’s unique perspective. 

We discussed his experience doing a Tedx talk - everything from how it came about to lessons learned. 

Eric also has a really unique and s...
