This week’s guest is one of my most favorite experts + innovators in health + fitness leading Sal Di Stefano.
Sal is a co-host to the world’s top fitness podcast MInd Pump (with over 60 million downloads)- also one of my FAVORITE podcasts.
Sal's passion and personal story behind creating Mind Pump with his teammates Doug, Adam, and Justin, comes from the desire to shift the direction of the fitness industry from an aesthetic insecurity-base to a self-love and self-care health industry. He knew this could be accomplished with education through entertainment which is what Mind Pump is- it’s what I call INFOTAINMENT- I can’t even tell you how much I crack up BTS while watching their episodes- It’s so much fun!
Sal is DEEP, he is a very introspective + curious individual these traits have led him to become the WEALTH of knowledge that he is, in all things related to wellness + really, human potential.
One of one the MANY the things I LOVED talking about in this episode with Sal is this fact that when we feel good on a personal level when we take care of good ourselves and maintain our health...we show up as our best selves and operate from our highest potential.
With Mind Pump, Sal is striving to support this process for all of us by bringing high-quality fitness and science-backed health information with passion, integrity, and honesty.
Another amazing aspect of having Sal on the podcast is that in an attempt to call mySELFout + eliminate some hesitation towards launching my podcast I started to feel, I hit Sal up on IG informing him that I was launching a podcast and would love to have him on as a guest. He graciously agreed and actually listened to my first 2 episodes and gave me valuable feedback that I took to heart.
That moment of reaching out to him was HUGE for me and his response truly helped me push the hesitation I was feeling out the way- 2 months later I launched BlackBeltBeauty Radio and 3 years later, I am about to hit play on this INCREDIBLE episode with SAL on the show.
In this HIGHLY INFORMATIVE talk, Sal + I go into the depths of fitness/health + overall wellness.
Some topics include:
In this epic talk, Sal + I dive deep into topics such as:
Busting the myths on women's weightlifting + getting “bulky”
The damage caused by mainstream fitness marketing
The foundations to support health-span, longevity & overall well-being
The importance of residence training, muscle development, metabolism, & insulin maintenance to combat metabolic diseases.
An overview of what a healthy relationship with food looks like + habits that help to develop it.
How our personal wellbeing/health effects our society + why it’s NOT selfish to prioritize time for your health/fitness in your day.
This is a MUST-LISTEN episode for anyone who wants to empower themselves with science-based information that will take your health/fitness/wellness to the NEXT LEVEL.
