Old gym tees. Washed-out jeans. Beat-up sneakers.

That’s what most men are still wearing, even after transforming their bodies, rebuilding their lives, and getting back in the game.

But here's the thing...

The way you dress tells the world how to treat you. It reflects your confidence. It amplifies your presence. It speaks before you ever open your mouth.

In this episode, I’m joined by Antonio Centeno, founder of Real Men Real Style, former Marine Corps officer, and one of the most respected men’s style coaches in the world.

Antonio breaks down the exact steps to upgrade your wardrobe without wasting money, losing your identity, or looking like you’re trying too hard.

We talk suits, shirts, pants, and shoes... but more importantly, we discuss how style shapes your mindset, your marriage, your career, and your ability to lead.

Let’s dive in.

Homeless at 16. Seven kids. 60+ countries. A life built with intention.

This one hit deep.

Greg Denning is a man on a mission. He’s a high-performance coach, a world-traveling husband and father, and the kind of leader every man over 40 needs to hear from.

Today, we’re talking about how to lead with purpose, build your legacy, and show up as the formidable family man your family needs.

Greg’s story is wild. Growing up in chaos, leaving home as a teenager, sharing a burrito with his buddy while sleeping on a floor, and now? He’s got a thriving marriage, adult kids he mentors, and a powerful presence rooted in discipline and values.

We’re going all in on the real issues men face. Feeling inadequate, carrying anger, struggling with direction, and thinking it’s too late to change.

Greg breaks down how to flip that story, how to stop playing the victim, and how to level up even if you feel overwhelmed, beaten down, or burned out.

He drops absolute gems on parenting, faith, fitness, legacy, and why being a man is about way more than paying bills and showing up to work.

This is one of those episodes that stays with you.

Let’s go.

One piece of equipment. Hundreds of exercises. A total game changer for strength after 40.

If you’ve ever struggled with dips, pull-ups, or finding a real way to build upper body strength without hitting the gym every day, this episode is for you.

Today, I’m joined by one of my favorite people in the fitness industry, Marc Lebert. A true innovator who created the legendary Lebert Equalizer Bars.

I’ve been using these things for over 15 years. In bootcamps. With fighters. In my own home workouts. And the truth is, every man over 40, 50, 60 should have a pair. They're compact, portable, and brutally effective.

Marc didn’t just invent a tool. He literally revolutionized how we train at home. We get into his wild story of how he once worked security and vacuumed gym floors for $8/hour and then went on to build a global fitness product used by everyone from MMA coaches to calisthenics legends like Frank Medrano.

We also break down the most humbling exercises you can do on the Equalizers (rows, dips, and leg raises will wake up muscles you forgot existed), how to use them for metabolic training, and why building your own home gym isn’t optional anymore—it’s essential.

This one’s packed with real talk, laughs, and pure training gold. And by the end, you’ll know exactly why these yellow bars belong in your setup.

Let’s go!

One day, you forget where you put your keys. Next, you're walking into a room and can’t remember why. And maybe the worst part? You start to wonder if this is just part of getting older.

But what if it’s not?

In this episode, Dr. Josh Helman explains why brain fog, forgetfulness, and mental fatigue hit harder after 40 and what you can do to fight back.

He’s not just an MD. Dr. Josh is a Harvard-trained biochemist and emergency medicine physician who now helps people reverse Alzheimer’s and reclaim their mental clarity. His message? It’s not too late. And the decline isn’t inevitable.

We talk about why your sleep quality, not just the number of hours, quietly shapes your brain’s future. We get into the sneaky role of inflammation and gut health, why environmental toxins are slowly hijacking our minds, and the powerful but often overlooked link between stress and dementia risk.

And Dr. Josh doesn’t stop at theory. He gives you the exact supplements he recommends (including creatine), the detox routines that actually work, and why donating blood might just save your brain.

Whether you’re worried about your own cognitive health or caring for a parent who’s slipping, this episode is your action plan.

Because aging doesn’t mean losing who you are.

Think 10,000 steps is just a trendy number? It might be the missing piece that’s holding you back from dropping stubborn fat, balancing your hormones, and staying strong well into your 60s and 70s.

In this episode, I’m breaking down why daily walking—yes, walking—is one of the most powerful tools for men over 40 to transform their bodies, improve energy, and stay out of the danger zone of chronic disease.

This one’s straight from one of my Friday coaching calls inside the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood, where I go deep into the REAL science behind step counts, metabolic health, testosterone, recovery, and fat loss. I’m sharing how I use daily walking to combat back pain, boost recovery, and burn hundreds of extra calories every day—without more workouts or stricter dieting.

This one’s practical, science-backed, and 100% doable. Let’s walk the walk, brothers.

“ Sitting for long periods is a new smoking. Lack of daily movement is linked to weight gain, heart disease, shorter lifespan, and back issues.”

I want to give a MASSIVE thanks to everyone stepping up and leaving 5-star...

Low energy, stubborn belly fat, weak workouts, poor sleep, no sex drive? That’s not normal. It’s low testosterone, and it’s a silent epidemic affecting millions of men, especially over 40.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the 10 Commandments of Naturally Increasing Testosterone—the exact framework I’ve used to help thousands of men inside the Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood reclaim their strength, their confidence, and their manhood.

We’re not talking about TRT, steroids, or any quick-fix BS. This is all about dialing in your lifestyle, so your body starts producing more testosterone naturally, the way it was always meant to.

I’m going to show you why belly fat is your enemy, how poor sleep crushes your hormones, what kind of training actually boosts your T, and why most guys are unknowingly flooding their bodies with estrogenic toxins. We’ll also talk about porn, alcohol, junk food, and the weak habits that are straight-up sabotaging your masculinity.

These 10 commandments aren’t just tips. They’re non-negotiables. And when you lock them in, you’ll not only increase your testosterone, but you’ll feel more alive, more powerful, and more you than you’ve felt in years.

Let’s get after it.

You don’t wake up 300 pounds overnight. But one day, you walk into a store, try on a triple XL shirt… and it doesn’t fit. That was James Rice’s moment. The moment he realized his health had quietly spiraled out of control.

But what followed wasn’t just a weight loss journey—it was a complete reinvention.

In this episode, James opens up about what really led to his transformation at 52 years old. A career-ending injury. Divorce. Losing his business. Facing down diabetes. And the hardest part? Admitting he needed help.

James went from nearly 300 pounds to stepping on stage at 150 pounds, shredded, and winning a national transformation contest affiliated with Arnold Schwarzenegger. But what made his story powerful wasn’t just the fat loss. It was what he gained along the way: energy, purpose, confidence, and a reason to lead others.

We talk about the raw realities of starting over in midlife, setting new boundaries, breaking a sugar addiction, and how becoming “selfish” with your health might be the most selfless thing you can do for your family.

This one hits deep, especially for guys who think it’s too late to turn things around.

James proves it never is.
