25 Questions I Got Asked To Help Men Over 40 Lose Fat Part 2 - 119
An A1C above 6.2 makes you diabetic, by definition. Plenty of men running six and seven figure businesses cross that line years before a doctor ever says the word out loud. This episode is for that man, the business owner who builds his whole calendar around everyone else and never blocks time for his own health. This is men's health built for men who run things and rarely slow down.
Coach Brian answers fifteen real questions from men over 40 about fat loss, blood work, and energy. He breaks down what to do when your A1C creeps up and what drives high blood pressure underneath the surface. The episode also gets into what happens in your body after a GLP-1, and why a single work trip can quietly add five pounds you never planned for. Stress, sleep, and nutrition all show up here too. All three drive the energy and focus you bring to your business every day, and that energy turns directly into productivity at work and patience at home.
Your business and your health run on the same fuel. The discipline that built your company can rebuild your body too. Whether you run a local company or an online business, the energy you have at 6pm decides how you show up for your family and how you perform at work the next day. Good fitness and good nutrition fold directly into your business performance, your stress management, and your work-life balance. This episode gives you a clear path to better energy, better focus, and a body that matches everything else you have built.
