Welcome to Motivation Monday, where every Monday we answer all of your questions and have some real talks about life & fitness & get you fired up for the week!
In this episode we talk about how to blast through plateaus in weight loss, a simple trick to find new exercises & how to get results through proper planning.
(0:00) - Intro
(0:55) - Josh quote: “You can’t buy heart.”
(2:40) - Kyle quote: “If you lose 1lb per week for an entire year, that's a total of 52lbs...
104lbs in 2 years.
The scale will NOT go down every single week.
It's just how it is, so stop stressing out when it fluctuates.
Keep putting in work and trust the process.”
(7:35) - Weekly thoughts/recommendations
(21:25) - Client shoutout: Mike Robbins - 65lbs down in 28 weeks
(23:55) - Question 1- I’ve hit a plateau in my weight loss journey. I am 13lbs down and about 30lbs overweight so 17lbs to go but the scale hasn’t budged in three weeks. What do you do for your clients to blast through?-Advanced tools / diet breaks/ carb refeeds/ reverse diets
(31:15) - Question 2- How do you recommend I find new exercises to do in the gym and how do I know what’s actually good? I find a few on tiktok but I know you said to be weary of those.
(35:40) - Question 3- I start my week with good intention. Food prepped, and a fresh mindset to get some good workouts in. But I seem to forget a lot of things, and have a hard time keeping track of everything I need to when life takes over. Any tips?
Thanks for listening! We genuinely appreciate every single one of you listening.

| 0:00.0 | What's going on, everyone. Welcome to another episode of the fit, healthy, and most of all happy podcast. |
| 0:06.4 | As always, checking in is your coach and host Josh here with. |
| 0:10.5 | His other host and his other coach, KG, and I'm in the house. |
| 0:15.1 | Let's get it. Coming at you with Motivation Monday, we've got the coffee going strong today. |
| 0:19.4 | We had some of the Death Wish coffee. I save it for one. know we're going to film some killer episodes. So hopefully you liked, you know, the episode we released on Thursday about bloating. If you haven't listened to that yet, it is phenomenal. We just finished filming it. That's why we're so fired up. And now we're really excited to jump into Motivation Monday because you're listening to this it is Monday it is your time |
| 0:37.9 | to get out there and make your stamp on the week so we're going to jump right into it as always as |
| 0:43.3 | we love to do with our quotes because quotes fire us up they motivate us their little mantras I |
| 0:48.1 | always say their tools in our tool belt for a reason and I'm going to start it off I'm going to |
| 0:51.7 | just take over here because I'm really passionate about this. |
| 0:54.4 | This is a common quote you hear a lot and that's you can't buy heart. So the reason I like this is I think, you know, especially nowadays, it's so common where you can buy just about anything you want. Should you need something, you could just go on Amazon. It's there pretty much the same day, which is pretty crazy. But me and Kyle have always mentioned |
| 1:11.0 | how no matter what field someone's in, no matter what they're doing, you really come to respect |
| 1:16.3 | someone who's maintained a good level of health or fitness. And I think it's pretty universal |
| 1:20.5 | in that regard because you're basically walking around saying I'm disciplined, I'm driven, |
| 1:26.3 | and I take care of my body. And that's something I think is amazing. Like I'm sure we've been there, you know, you've been in the dentist's office, your dentist is jacked or something. You're like, dang, it's person in a dentist and they're jacked. You know, it just, it shows at higher level discipline. And we've even mentioned, you know, there's people out there that are billionaires that are killing it that just don't have their health, right? And it's something you can't just buy. Like you have to have that heart. You have to find |
| 1:48.4 | that drive. You have to put in that work. And I know a lot of people say, well, I'm not that way. |
| 1:51.8 | I didn't grow up playing sports. It doesn't come easy to me. I'm shy. I, you know, have some |
| 1:56.0 | insecurities about going in the gym. And heart is something you earn right like you earn through struggle through challenge you're overcoming oh you know I got to go in this gym this is a place I've never been I'm unsure and then you get a workout done then you get a week of workouts done then you've been there for like 10 years I mean that's my story pretty much right and you know look at how far that's come so my point is like I think it's just very admirable and I think it's awesome, too, |
| 2:18.3 | that, you know, you're tuning into this episode right now. You're taking additional time outside of the gym, outside of your busy schedule to learn more about your fitness, health, and happiness. So if you're listening to this, you got heart, you're due for big things and you were going to crush this week. I love him. Every single person here, you guys are super awesome. |
| 2:35.1 | And I love that quote. |
| 2:36.3 | And, you know, I'm, uh, I'm taking a bit of a different approach. Josh's there was like super simple and like very solid, like very punchy. But, um, my quote here is more of kind of, I guess you could say like a phrase, um, that I wanted to share. and basically I came across it through Instagram. |
| 2:50.9 | Like everyone posts different variations of this, |
| 2:52.7 | but I just thought it was very powerful that I wanted to share. And basically, I came across it through Instagram. |
