Fasting and dealing with Addictions, Vices

‘What’s your main focus right now BK?’ I asked.    ‘To be totally present with what I am doing.  It’s about self-awareness.  There’s nothing else I’d rather be doing that what I am doing right now..’ BK replied.   ‘How do you go about that?  Because that is something so many people struggle with.’    If you want to find out the answer and a lot of other philosophical and mindset topics that BK and I discussed on my latest podcast, you’ll have to tune in and listen.    Be Unconventional, Kyle aka Panda Man P.S. - If you want to master the art of fasting so this summer you can be your leanest ever, then check out my Masterclass.  And if you text me BIGFOOT, I'll get you $100 off.  This offer is good for the first 10 people to hit me up. 908-229-6666   Panda Diet Masterclass

‘The ladder of success is never crowded at the top’.    A half a year ago, Brian reached out to me.  He started my Panda Diet and was cruising.     I helped him with a few simple tweaks and he is now down over 100 pounds!    In this episode of Unlocking Your Inner Strength, I interviewed him about what it took to achieve that and his mindset about maintaining it.     He had tried and failed so many other programs that this was his last hope and he nailed it.   

I’ve forgotten more than most people in the fitness field ever will know.     And I know this because while doing private Coaching sessions, we will get into some great conversations where I recall secrets that someone like Louie Simmons or JB have shared with me.     In today’s episode, I am going to go over some of those insider secrets such as:   -> How much stress your nervous system can handle and how a workout serves two sides of the stress equation   -> Why the strongest guys in the world never do a maximum bench press or squat or deadlift two weeks in a row, however, they do perform a maximum lift every week.  Hmmm…   -> Why training one limb at a time is often more beneficial, especially when dealing with an injured side.   -> How to recover from a muscle pull in record time and what to look out for in the future in terms of it happening again.  Hint, rest is not the answer.    -> Why using a fat grip can dramatically increase your strength…   -> Why the core is usually the limiting factor when it comes to doing full range of motion squats..   -> One BIG secret that I figured out that work over 80% of the time when it comes to chronic elbow tendonitis   I am sure you’ll pick up a bunch of other secrets in this episode too, and if you like it, please like it for me and share it.    

I sat down with my buddy from Alabama, Lane Bulger, for a great conversation recently.     I always love talking with Lane because he is open minded.  Did you ever notice how terrible conversation is with someone that is totally closed minded and makes you avoid certain topics?     Anyways, he asked me some next level questions on fasting and we also began diving down the rabbit hole of addiction and vices.  How do we conquer them?  Are they genetic?  A generational curse?   You can take a listen grab some good take aways, I’m sure.     And don’t forget, if you like it, like it and share it!  

My Top 3 Daily Practices   My mind has been all over the place lately.     I suppose having baby #4 and a new puppy and a lack of sleep will do that to you.     I’m human just like you.     As I share my journey with you, I think it’s important for you to know that I have struggles, sometimes immense struggles.     Lately, I have certain daily, minimal practices that are helping me to stay centered and at peace with life.     These are things that anyone can do, as I feel that it’s important not to give examples of stuff that not everyone has access to.     I hope you find at least one useful tip in here that you can start working on and implementing into your daily practice.  Because, afterall, that’s what it is, a practice.  Practice makes us better.     If you'd like to book a call about potentially working with me to get you to the next level, you can check my availability here: https://app.form.pandamanofficial.com/book-a-call-page   Be Unconventional, Kyle aka Panda Man  

I’ve got a little secret for you….   I’ve been studying marketing, influence and personal brand building for 17 years now.     And, it wasn’t until a few years ago where I fully accepted that I was weird in many ways and I was just going to flat out embrace it!     Combine those two aspects and you have a ‘character in the making’.  I’ve got so many unbelievable stories from my life that it just made sense to start sharing my views, experiences and knowledge, pure 100% authentic!   Anyways, a lot of you and people on the Internet have asked me about teaching them how to create content, built a personal brand and then some.     In today’s episode, I am going to share a few of my secrets, including how to get started and how to know what your ‘purpose’ is, how to stay inspired, what I do when I get down and even a few things to think about when you start building your personal brand (highly, highly valuable in terms of $$$$, companies hire me to speak privately to their organizations about this).     Wow, I can’t believe I am going to start pulling back the curtain for you guys, but I am, God has put that on my heart just NOW.     Be Unconventional, Kyle aka Panda Man P.S. - If you are a father in his 30's or 40's, and have at least 20 pounds of fat to lose, with a dire need for more energy,  then inquire about my Coaching program for men just like you here: https://app.form.pandamanofficial.com/book-a-call-page

In today's episode, I pull an old notebook off the shelf.  It is full of cursive handwriting and  contains a lot of my notes on Mind Mapping.   If you are interested in what Mind Mapping is and the thought behind it, then this is a must listen.   No, it's not drawing bubbles on paper...a lot of people mistakenly think the Mind Mapping that I talk about is like the old 'brainstorming' when I was in school and having to map out my writing project.   That type of stuff is very useful for clarity but it is not Mind Mapping.     And if you are interested in Mind Mapping, then you'll love these 3 foundational Mind Map principles that I go over in this episode and how they show up in your LIFE.   If you like this, plese leave me a positive review and share the episode!

I don't believe in massive will power for creating a transformation.   It doesn't work.   I've noticed 3 distinct behaviors that occur when someone sticks on my Panda Diet.   First - The desire for booze goes way down Second - Desire for sweets goes way down and the desire for good, nutritious food goes way up Third - Your ability to take control over your thoughts and inner dialogue goes way up All of this happens organically, there is no need to force it.  In today's episode, I cover this in much more detail.  If you want to master the art and science of fasting, then this is a must listen!  If you are ready to make the change, but feel stuck, you can book a call with me.  All you have to do is go here and I will be in touch: https://app.form.pandamanofficial.com/book-a-call-page Be Unconventional -  Kyle aka Panda Man
