2026/01/30

On this solo episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I go deeper into something that has completely changed how I move through the world. Learning to disconnect from outside noise and focus on what I actually have power over. We live in a time where we are constantly being pulled into things we cannot control. News cycles, social media outrage, other people's opinions, and problems that are way bigger than any one person. And yet we give them our energy every single day. In this episode, I talk about the

2026/01/28

On this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig Smith and I sit down for a real conversation about the pressure that comes with having a voice online. As coaches, creators, and people with platforms, there can be an unspoken expectation to have an opinion on everything. Every headline. Every trend. Every crisis. And if you don't speak up, people are quick to assume you don't care. We talk about why that isn't true. Choosing not to emotionally attach yourself to every outside circumstance does not

2026/01/23

On this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I sit down with Dr Robyn Hanley Dafoe, one of the leading voices in human behavior and resiliency research. Dr Robyn has spent her entire career studying why humans behave the way they do, what actually drives real behavior change, and why some people seem naturally more resilient than others. We get into the science behind resilience, but also the very real, very practical application of it in everyday life. We talk about why motivation alone is unreliable,

2026/01/20

On this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, the tables get turned. A couple weeks back, I put Craig Smith in the hot seat with our Therapy After Dark rapid fire questions and this time he flipped the script and hit me with rapid fire health and fitness questions that I had zero prep for. No outline, no filters, no rehearsed answers, just real time thoughts on health, fitness, nutrition, mindset, and how I actually think through decisions when put on the spot. If you have ever wanted a sneak peek into

2026/01/13

This month's Q and A episode is one of those conversations that went everywhere it needed to go. Craig Smith and I sat down and answered real questions from real people. Just honest perspectives from years in the trenches coaching humans through health, fitness, mindset, and life. We covered things like how to actually find a good personal trainer and what red flags to watch for before you waste your time or money. We had a real conversation around sobriety versus recovery and why those two things

The Brad Jensen Show ·

2026/01/09

On today's solo episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I brought back one of my old and most requested segments 10 Minutes of Fire. This is a short, raw, and unapologetically real message meant to light a fire under you and get you moving in the right direction. I dive deep into radical accountability. The uncomfortable truth that no one is coming to save you. No one is showing up to fix your health, your mindset, your finances, or your life. And while that can feel heavy at first, it's actually the most

2026/01/07

In this episode, Craig and I introduce a new rapid fire segment where we put a licensed therapist in the hot seat. No long explanations. No therapy jargon. Just quick, honest takes on mental health, emotions, relationships, masculinity, and the chaos of modern culture. We touch on common therapy myths, social media psychology, emotional regulation, boundaries, and where personal responsibility actually fits into the healing conversation. There's humor, some uncomfortable truths, and a few moments

In this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig Smith and I sit down to talk about the top five things you absolutely need to avoid this January if you want 2026 to be the year you finally get your health and fitness dialed in. Not another list of hacks. Not another 30 day reset. Not another motivation speech that fades by February. We break down five very clear and distinct mistakes we see people make every single year that quietly sabotage their progress before it ever really starts. These are the

2025/12/26

In this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I sit down with one of my best friends and one of the top life coaches in the country, Grant Dziak. Grant is a life optimization coach who helps people break through self limiting beliefs and finally start believing in themselves again. This wasn't a surface level conversation. We went deep into why so many people wait until their life is on fire before they finally decide to change, and how to take action before things completely fall apart. We also got into

2025/12/23

In this episode, Craig and I kick things off with some classic back and forth, including a spirited debate on Christmas music and which songs should probably be banned forever. It's light, it's sarcastic, and it sets the tone fast. From there, we shift into the world of social media, online comments, and people's deep rooted need to share their opinions whether anyone asked for them or not. We talk about the good, the bad, and the flat out ridiculous when it comes to interacting online and how easy

2025/12/16

In this episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig Smith and I dive into a conversation most people are afraid to have out loud. We start by breaking down the recent firing of University of Michigan head coach Sherone Moore and the ripple effect that happens when integrity slips. Not just in leadership or sports, but in life. We talk about how fast things can unravel when your actions and values stop lining up, and why integrity always catches up to you, one way or another. From there, we transition

2025/12/12

In this solo episode of The Brad Jensen Show, I go on one of my classic rants while answering two of the most common questions I get asked all the time. First, we talk metabolism. What it actually is. Why almost everyone misunderstands it. And why blaming your metabolism is usually a convenient excuse instead of the real problem. I break down what's really driving fat loss, energy, and body composition and why the internet has completely overcomplicated this topic. Then I shift gears into a

On this month's Q and A episode of The Brad Jensen Show, Craig and I sat down and answered a stacked lineup of questions you all sent in. We kicked things off by diving into GLP medications and the big conversation around sustainability. We talked about who they actually make sense for, the mindset traps people fall into, and what long term success looks like beyond just the scale. From there, we broke down my three rules for life and how those simple principles can anchor you when everything else

On this week's episode, Craig and I kick things off with a solid twenty minutes of pure holiday chaos and friendly rambling while we try to settle one of the most important debates of our generation. We attempt to figure out what the best Christmas movie of all time actually is. We share some nostalgia, some questionable takes, and way too many opinions for two grown men. From there, I shift gears and play a viral clip from an influencer on Instagram that got both of us thinking. We dive into the

2025/11/28

Today I sat down with Chris Martin, a trainer who has built a massive presence online by doing something rare in today's fitness space. Telling the truth. Chris holds multiple personal training certifications and has made a name for himself by calling out the nonsense that keeps people stuck. He is blunt. He is honest. And he does not sugarcoat a thing. You probably know him from his viral reel where he said that if you are obese, maybe you should not be personal training people yet. That clip blew

The Brad Jensen Show ·

2025/11/25

In this solo episode I unpack one of the most misunderstood topics in all of fat loss. Starvation mode. Or better stated. The myth of starvation mode. I break down what most people actually mean when they say they are "in starvation mode" and why the vast majority simply are not in a consistent calorie deficit. I also get into why honesty in tracking and daily habits matters way more than blaming your metabolism. But I also address the very small subset of people who really do experience something

EP722 - Why Porn Is Destroying More Lives Than You Think

2025/11/21

This one runs deep. Pornography is not the fun or flashy topic most people want to talk about, but it is one that needs to be talked about. In this episode Craig and I dive into the real dangers of porn, the darker side of the industry, and why it quietly destroys so many lives. I opened up about my personal experience and the moment years ago that made me stay as far away from porn as possible. It was something I witnessed that changed the way I see the entire industry and the energy behind it

2025/11/19

This was one of those solo episodes where I just hit record and let it rip. A little humor. A little education. A little ranting. A little real life. I kicked things off talking about how insanely hard it actually is to accidentally get too jacked in the gym. The amount of people who are terrified of getting bulky from a few weeks of lifting still blows my mind. If only it were that easy. If anything, it was your reminder that building real muscle takes intention, consistency, and way more effort

2025/11/14

In this episode I sit down with guest cohost Cass Zimmerman for a real conversation about MAHA, the healthcare system, and where the middle ground actually lives between modern western medicine and the holistic side of fitness and nutrition. We rift, we talk some shit, we laugh, and we give you a few insights along the way. This one is laid back, honest, and exactly the kind of conversation you'd expect when two friends get behind the mic. Next Level Experience - Schedule Your Discovery Call Here

Today Craig and I are talking about the dark side of the fitness influencer world. Orthorexia. The obsession with eating perfectly clean. The belief that discipline equals restriction and punishment. The extreme routines that get praised online while people silently struggle with guilt fear and anxiety around food. We pull back the curtain on what really goes on behind the "grind" and "no excuses" mentality When discipline becomes obsession Exercise bulimia and feeling like you have to earn or burn
