The Brad Jensen Show ·

2025/09/12

In this episode of the Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, I begin by addressing the heartbreaking tragedy here in Utah involving the killing of Charlie Kirk. It’s important to pause and acknowledge the weight of events like this before moving into our regular health and fitness discussions. From there, we shift into the main focus of today’s show: how to get the most out of a high-protein diet without suffering from the digestive issues that often come with it. A common pushback I hear from

NLP703 - Our Kids Are Watching – Set the Example

The Brad Jensen Show ·

2025/09/02

In this short but powerful solo episode, I share an important reminder: our kids are always watching us. Every choice we make around health, fitness, and lifestyle sets the tone for what they’ll grow up believing is “normal.” I tell a quick story about my son Dominic that perfectly shows how much our kids absorb—even hours later. They may not say something right away, but they’re paying attention to how we eat, move, and take care of ourselves. This isn’t about going to extremes or being

2025/08/26

In this episode of the Next Level Health and Fitness Podcast, Craig and I sat down to recap the brand-new Biggest Loser documentary on Netflix. It’s a three-part series that dives into one of the most controversial weight loss shows ever — and we went deep breaking it all down. We talked about the pros, the cons, and what the show got completely wrong when it comes to creating lasting results. More importantly, we shared what you can actually take away from watching it — and how those lessons apply

Valerie Lusvardi is back on the show, and since her last appearance over a year ago, she’s become not only a good friend but someone I’ve worked with in a professional capacity. We even teamed up to help a girl prep for a bodybuilding show. Val is one of the sharpest minds in the game when it comes to training and programming, and she’s just as dialed in with nutrition. Not to mention—she’s an IFBB pro, a coach, a wife, and a mom to three boys. In this episode, we covered a lot of ground: Val’s

2025/08/19

This milestone episode is a special one. Brad and Craig dive deep into a topic that separates people who stay stuck from those who create real transformation: choosing hard on purpose. We live in a world designed for comfort—but comfort rarely produces growth. In this conversation, Brad and Craig unpack the art of designed discomfort and why leaning into hard things is the gateway to the life you want. They cover: The science behind discomfort and what it does to your brain. Why intentionally

If you’ve been stressing over every tiny detail in your health and fitness journey… this episode is your permission slip to chill out. I’m breaking down six things you just don’t need to waste your mental energy on anymore — from obsessing over your friend’s macros, to comparing your progress to someone else’s transformation timeline, to that outdated BMI chart that’s about as useful as a flip phone in 2025. This is part straight talk, part humor, and part motivational kick to remind you: your

In this Q&A episode of the Next Level Podcast, Craig and I dive into a variety of real-life questions you’ve sent in. We talk about how to genuinely help loved ones when you can see they’re struggling, whether getting 15,000 steps one day and 5,000 the next still evens out to your goal, and what to do when you’re trying to help a client who clearly doesn’t want to do the work. We also cover how to get your menstrual cycle back after it’s gone missing, ways to maintain a healthy social life while

If you’ve ever been curious about peptides but feel overwhelmed by the science — this episode is for you. I sat down with my good friend Liz Roman, who’s not only a gut health ninja but also a wealth of knowledge when it comes to peptides. And we didn’t just talk about the usual suspects like BPC-157 or TB-500. Nope. We’re diving into 5 up-and-coming peptides you probably haven’t heard of — but need to.

2025/08/05

In this episode, Craig and I cover a handful of great questions that came through — all totally different topics, but all worth talking about. We kicked it off with a topic I’m super passionate about — morning sunlight. I get fired up about this one because too many people online treat it like some trendy “biohack” scam, when the reality is it’s one of the simplest and powerful ways to anchor your circadian rhythm, boost mood, improve sleep, and regulate hormones. It’s not some gimmick — it’s real

In this episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, Craig Smith (licensed clinical therapist) and I dive into some of the most overused and overrated therapy sayings floating around in the personal development and mental health space. You’ve heard them before—those catchy little one-liners that get thrown around like gospel in therapy rooms, Instagram posts, and coaching circles. And sure, some of them hold truth… but others? They’re either wildly overhyped, taken out of context, or in some

2025/07/22

You hear it all the time—“I’m doing the work.” But what does that actually mean? In this solo episode, I dive into what personal development really looks like beyond just reading books or listening to podcasts. I share a recent day where everything went sideways—including my dog getting bit by a rattlesnake—and how that chaos tested everything I’ve been practicing. It’s easy to feel like we’re making progress when life is smooth. But the real work shows up in how we respond when things fall apart

In this short solo episode, Brad delivers 10 minutes of straight fire on one of the biggest roadblocks to success—quitting when things get hard. He brings it back to one of the core teachings from The Four Agreements, especially the one that’s most misunderstood: “Always do your best.” But here’s the kicker… Your best doesn’t mean your best ever. It means the best you can do today. And that will look different on a Monday after a full night of sleep versus a Thursday when life is chaos. Brad

In this episode of The Next Level Health & Fitness Podcast, we dive into a surprising topic: the potential dangers of relying too heavily on ChatGPT and other AI tools—especially when it comes to nutrition, fitness, and critical thinking. AI can be helpful, no doubt. But when it replaces real thought, personalization, and context, it can actually set people back. We break down where things go wrong—particularly in the nutrition space—and how blindly trusting AI advice can lead to confusion,
