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.
Welcome to the Mental Muscle-Up Podcast.

Named Must Your FEAR Be Before Banish It You can
🤔 EP058 - If there is a source of recurring pain in your life that you have been avoiding - perhaps to the point where you’ve become numb or even blind to it, what is the first step we must take to overcome our fears, enabling us to step up instead of shrinking and surrendering into the shadows of fear?
“We read a bunch of books nowadays. As humans, we want to find out how to be someone else. What we don’t do is we don’t go inside. We’re writing a book every day of our lives, but we never read that book.” - David Goggins
🎙️ In today’s PodWod, we be crushing our EMOTIONAL Health & Fitness.
Breakdown or breakthrough - I talk about this repeatedly in my classes. That moment in a set where you’re not sure if you can keep going, and you have a choice to make. Do you listen to the piece of shit voice in your head that says it’s too hard or do you listen to the other voice in your head that knows you can do one more rep or at the very least try?
One of the men I respect most in my life, Mr. Philip Pape over at the Wits & Weights podcast once said, “When I talk about skepticism it’s not just questioning everything that comes AT you it’s questioning everything that comes FROM you - meaning we all have long-held beliefs, and they may be incorrect.”
Confronting our fears is not easy, but it is necessary if growth is what you’re after. All fear begins with the story that generated it. If you want to overcome your fears, start by re-writing the stories that created them in the first place.
