  • Ep 58: How to Make Time for Exercise as a Busy Professional Musician
    Nov 15 2023
    I've worked with many professional musicians over my coaching career, including full time orchestra musicians, DJs, music educators, freelancers and studio musicians. One thing that all these different folks share is that they have very busy, very unpredictable schedules. They're often running around town for rehearsals, lessons, gigs and recording sessions. They work at odd hours including nights and weekends. In addition to their paid responsibilities and regular adulting tasks, they also have to make time to practice or make music. It's no wonder that many musicians struggle to stick with an exercise routine. Over the years, I've helped my busy professional musician clients make more time for exercise. Our approach is usually not perfect, and that's okay. What matters most is to develop your own level of consistency and keeping showing up for months and years. Check out the most recent episode of my podcast for my top 5 tips to make time for exercise as a busy professional musician.

  • Ep 57: Why You're Not Losing Weight Despite Crushing Your Workouts
    Oct 25 2023
    Every wondered why you aren't losing weight despite lots of hard exercise? Listen to this episode. I recently had a conversation with a friend who wants to lose weight and was upset about the latest weigh-in at her gym. Despite pushing herself and making good progress with her workouts, the scale hadn't budged in several months. She wondered if she should add more workouts or try to go even harder. But when I asked my friend if she had made any changes to her eating habits during that time, the honest answer was "no." Our conversation inspired this new episode of my "Building Stronger Creatives" podcast, because I think it speaks to some key misconceptions about fat loss. I discuss what it actually takes to lose fat - and why focusing too much on intense exercise is ineffective at best and counterproductive at worst. I also share the REAL biggest benefits of working out, and why I think all creatives should exercise even if they don't want to lose fat or aren’t ready to diet. Spoiler alert: burning calories doesn’t make the list. Check it out and share with someone who's been struggling to lose weight despite consistent exercise.

    John Turman is 3rd horn in the Seattle Symphony and Horn Professor at the University of Washington. He's also a badass powerlifter and fitness coach who can lift a seriously impressive amount of weight. I was excited to speak with John about his fitness journey and how it interacts with his life as a busy professional musician. Some topics covered include: ~How John used exercise to reduce music-related aches and pains ~How John got into powerlifting (and why he loves it so much) ~What types of exercise musicians should do and why ~Making time for exercise when you have a crazy work schedule ~The similarities between fitness coaching and teaching music ~Advice for musicians who are just getting started with lifting ~How being strong and fit has helped John become a better musician This conversation was so much fun for me and John, and I really hope you enjoy it!
