Legacy Man Life Health & Fitness

Ever heard the 80/20 rule that nutrition is 80% of what you need to be focusing on, and exercise should only be 20% of your focus? I CALL B.S. Seriously - those who have championed this phrase have not seriously thought through or deconstructed the importance our psychology and spirituality has on our health journey.  Listen in to today's episode to hear me talk about the REAL 80/20 Rule and Why Exercise and Nutrition Don't Matter as Much as You Think.... For more check out www.LegacyManLife.com and hit me up at coachweber@legacymanlife.com.

In a past episode, I talked about the three steps you'll need to master in fatherhood: Wake-Up, Step-Up and Get-Up.  Today, I go deeper into the first step.  How do we live a life where we can continually step-up and expect adversity?  Make no doubt about it - the moment you begin to wake-up from your slumber of coasting through life, you will reach resistance at every turn.  But we still do it because it is the road which leads to fulfillment.  For more of my work, head to www.LegacyManLife.com or hit me up at coachweber@legacymanlife.com.

One of the things I have been struggling through ever since I can remember is purusing my health, fitness & performance with a Christ-centered perspective.  The world will tell us a lot of lies - and we have to fight this battle so that we can ultimately move forward with a renewed, Christ-filtered view.  The health & fitness industry is no different than anything else in our lives: it's a neutral thing that man can either corrupt (through sensuality or vanity) or use for the glory of God.  In this episode, you get a deeper look at my love for Jesus and how I help men utilize and steward the gifts God has given them by pursuing their health & fitness with intentionality.  Let me know what you think at coachweber@legacymanlife.com.

Ever wonder why you're wife isn't interested in making love when you all of a sudden "turn it on" at 10PM after neglecting to sow the seeds that would necessitate her being willing and ready to jump your bones once the kids go to bed? Listen in to today's episode to learn how you may be doing the same kind of things in your health & fitness.  For more on growth and leadership, check-out my website www.LegacyManLife.com or email me at coachweber@legacymanlife.com.

What if I told you that the mantra, "Move more and eat less" is actually making you fat?  Would you be offended? Defiant?  Want to know more?  Give a listen for more on how to not create a failing environment and actually take sustainable steps the next time you go at this whole health & fitness thing.  As always, check-out more at www.LegacyManLife.com or drop me a note at coachweber@legacymanlife.com.  See you tomorrow!

Whether you're on a journey to find find unity with your wife and kids, trying to lose weight and jump-start your leadership through physical transformation, or trying to level-up at work and in your career... There's a simple three-step process that you will need to master.  Fatherhood in today's society is crazy different than generations in the past have had to deal with - our responsibility is NOT just to provide financially, but to lead in the home as well.  If you're a new(ish) dad looking to make a difference in the home, you will want to take notes on the three things you'll discover in this episode.  For more, visit my site at www.LegacyManLife.com, where I write and create videos for new dads who are looking to make a real difference in their life physically, spiritually, and mentally.  PS - Everything I do or study or write about is steeped in change/influence psychology and spirituality.  Because that's where change truly happens.

Once a week I bring you expert advice and strategy talk from my expert nutrition consultant - aka my wife.  She handles the nutrition coaching aspect of ALL my coaching programs and packages and is nothing less than brilliant.  She has been working through her most recent coaching certification and program, and actually just graduated the year-long intensive Level II program from Precision Nutrition.  In this episode you can be a fly on the wall and hear how we empower people to change themselves with our coaching.

I'm a huge advocate of hiring yourself a coach (I mean, that's part of what I do for a living) or having mentors.  HOWEVER, you are absolutely going to have to learn the basics of coaching YOURSELF if you want to make this health & fitness (or any other) change stick in the long-run.  How do you coach yourself though?  Here are the three most important things to consider.  For more, email me at coachweber@legacymanlife.com or check out my website, www.LegacyManLife.com.

Too many men I work with think that in order to have massive amounts of success, they need to adhere to really complicated plans and procedures.  Quite the opposite is true.  If we narrow our focus and use Vital Behaviors to launch our nutritional habits, we can see huge improvements over both the short-run and long-run.  Don't make things complicated if you're not able to succeed and be successful at them.  Which of the six behaviors are you going to start with?  Let me know at coachweber@legacymanlife.com.  If you want to learn more about leadership in the home, health & fitness as a busy dad, or approaching health & fitness with a Christ-centered worldview, go to www.LegacyManLife.com for more.

Many times when I start working with men, I hear this: "I only have 10 minutes each day to commit to you - and my health."  So what do I tell them? Do I berate them and tell them that they actually have MORE time than that? No - I actually like to help them realize that on their own.  Listen in to find out where you should start out at if you're somebody who has no more than 10 minutes to commit to your health and fitness each day.  **Hint** it's NOT exercise or nutrition. For more, go to www.LegacyManLife.com or like my FB page, Coach Weber.

"Cardio" as most people understand it, it useless.  But I'm also not going to sit here and try and tell you that strength training or lifting weights is the only way to go.  Although knowledge won't save you or help you to transform your health and leadership long-term, there are still fundamentals and basics of physical training (and the other pillars of health) which we need to learn and then perform to mastery.  Listen in to today's episode, which talks about the three primary energy systems you ought to pay attention to, as well as the 6 Zones of Intensity you'll need to experiment with in order to burn fat all day long.

Most dads don't understand that MOTIVATION is something we can have control over.  Instead of berating you with the typical, Just Do It, mantra, I decided to dig in and experiment and study what actual steps we can take to help us to learn how to fall in love with the process.  How do we learn to LOVE things we aren't currently doing? Listen in for the seven strategies which will get you there.  For more go to www.LegacyManLife.com or go to my page on Facebook, Coach Weber.

Our default is to abdicate personal responsibility - no matter the situation.  It could be our weight, our fitness, our leadership in the home or our performance at work: we don't want it to be our fault.  In today's episode, we walk through the most important mindset shift you could possibly make on your journey to growing as a man, father and husband.  This ONE thing will get you through the toughest of circumstances and finally give you a healthy perspective on how to make progress no matter where you're at today.  If you like what you hear, you can find more at www.LegacyManLife.com.

When you hire me, you not only get my background, experience and expertise in exercise, strength, and discipleship - you get to work with my Expert Nutrition Consultant as well!  Meet my wife, Jaclyn Weber - she just completed her year-long intensive Level II Precision Nutrition Master Coach Certification for Nutritional Behavior Coaching.  Once a week you can be a fly on the wall during one of our conversations about REAL change in your health & fitness (with a Christ-Centered perspective, of course).  See more at www.LegacyManLife.com.

Most of the population CANNOT successfully and sustainably count macronutrients as a way of life.  I'm here to be the voice of reason - for both fitpros, coaches, and people considering macros: DON'T.  Furthermore, if you're somebody who has continually failed at counting macros over the years, then do not despair.  I've got your back ;) Check me out for more at www.legacymanlife.com and on my FB page, Coach Weber.

One of the pillars of the CODE of ethics in The Legacy Man Life is to ATTACK each day instead of reacting.  There's quite a bit that goes into this, both psychologically and in routine, but today I wanted to share with you an integral piece of the puzzle in how we as fathers can begin to start our day out right.  Submission is a taboo word and concept in today's world of prideful men, but a real man seeks to submit himself to the Ultimate Authority with diligence, and to do so invites Him into our hearts to create a massive change in our identity one day at a time.

Are you intimidated by the thought of improving your leadership in the home?  How can we PRACTICALLY take steps towards loving our wife and kids with more boldness, confidence, and yet also remain servant-hearted in our leadership?  If you are hungry to understand how this works, the 3L Framework and Methodology might help you out.  LOSE weight - improve your energy levels - and LAUNCH the other areas of your life - especially the LEADERSHIP in your own home.  For new dads who are seeking to live life well, with intention and purpose, or for old veteran dads looking for a place they can turn to for a Christ-Centered perspective on health & fitness, tune in and apply the 3L Framework to your life TODAY.

Most men have a light-switch mentality.  When we go on vacation, business trips, or even have a busy weekend... It's easy to simply shut down all things HEALTH.  Learn how and why it's critical for your journey to reframe your light-switch into the dial.

How many of you have tried to lose weight time and time again - but can't figure out how to actually live the life of KEEPING IT OFF?  This episode is for you.  I lay out the three step formula for long-term, sustainable change.  It's not sexy, but it's proven.  And don't worry, I'm not going to say that all it takes is trying harder (What a joke, right?).  If you're sick and tired of silver bullets and quick fixes - this is for you!
