As we enter the final quarter of the year, with the Holidays fast approaching, it’s time to talk strategy! How can you finish 2024 on a high note and set yourself up for a stellar start to 2025? In this episode, we dive into the actionable strategies we use with our clients to help you close out the year strong.

We’re also sharing the personal challenges we faced throughout the year and how we’ve had to reset a few times ourselves.

This month is a perfect moment to refocus and establish goals that not only get you closer to your health and fitness objectives but give you a jumpstart on the new year.

Wondering where to begin? We’re laying out the insights and tools you need to do it right.

Along with our usual updates on life around the gym and in LA, we’re excited to introduce a new segment: Trash or Pass. In this fun, rapid-fire segment, we look at trending topics and decide whether to "trash" them or give them a "pass" (meaning we’re cool with it!). We had a blast doing this, and you’re in for a few surprises!

Tune in and let us know what you think!

On this episode, we discuss our recent trip to a men's clinic to get tested and have a consultation about Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT).

Since this is such a hot topic now and we just did an episode talking about men's mental health, we thought it would be good for us to dive right in to the subject of Testosterone.

Who needs the therapy? What was our experience like getting tested? Are there other things you can do to boost your levels?

While we actually didn't start TRT, we discuss our experience and results.

Why do men have lower testosterone now than their parents and grandparents?

What are some easy and safe ways to boost your testosterone levels and help slow the decline that happening with men in our society?

Some of these things may surprise you!

We answer all these questions and more in this in-depth episode.

We also encourage everyone to work with their primary care provider on any health issues they have. Having a doctor who oversees your entire health is important and we believe that working one on one with them is always the best solution if you feel that you need to improve any aspect of your health.
