The MENtal Muscle-Up Podcast: The Cure For Mental Masturbation

Welcome to the Mental Muscle-Up Podcast, the no-BS show that is the cure for Male Mental Masturbation.

If you're a podcast junkie, self-improvement buff, and fitness fanatic like me, then this podcast is for you.

To quote Derek Sivers, “If more information was the answer, then we’d all be billionaires with perfect abs.”

By focusing on quality over quantity when it comes to the content calories we consume from podcasts like Mind Pump, Modern Wisdom, Wits and Weights, The Tim Ferriss Show, and Huberman Lab, we will use gym principles like Progressive Overload, and Specificity to

Raise the Bar in Our Relationships
Muscle-Up Our Mindset and Mental Health
Power Up Our Sense of Purpose, and
Build Bodies That Personify Peak Performance

Every episode of the Mental Muscle-Up Podcast inspires you to cure Male Mental Masturbation - which is defined as a term for overthinking or engaging in intellectual pursuits without practical application - as we go from passive consumption to immediate implementation with what we call the PodWod - your Podcast Workout of the Day.

Just like a training program in the gym, each PodWod gives a specific number of sets and reps in the form of questions and actions as we work on achieving the best podcast pump possible.

Since life is the ultimate workout, it’s time to start training for it. So hit subscribe, and stay tuned as we take the best of what works inside the gym and apply it outside the gym to Muscle-Up every area of our lives.

EP073 - What is the number one problem men face today? While everyone may have a different opinion, I like to look for the ROOT CAUSE of the surface-level issues we face as men. And in my humble opinion, a front-runner for that number one problem is men's inability to listen to and connect deeply with other men.

Today, I have a pioneer in the men's space who instantly became a Brother of mine after we connected. Marc Paisant is the first man who will tell you that even if you're a 6-foot-5 black guy, you need to talk about your feelings, and you need to have intimate relationships with other Brothers in your life.

Here's just a bit of what we be tackling in this episode:

👉🏾 Marc and I dive deep into one of the biggest challenges facing men today, which is how do we start listening to and more important HEAR the cries of our Brothers who are suffering in silence? (16:27)

👉🏾 What is the power of an honest conversation between men? Marc shares how his 3-plate-benching strength coach completely transformed his life with one simple concept (26:53)

👉🏾 How do you recognize whether or not you are experiencing depression? What does it look like IN ACTION? Marc shares his experience so you know if you or a Brother of yours is dealing with some shit you may need to address it (38:04)

👉🏾 What was the biggest remedy that therapy taught Marc that enabled him to overcome his depression, start loving himself and his body, and ultimately turn his entire life around? (47:34)
