It's rare that I call anything life-changing, especially when it requires me to clean out my closets.

But today's episode is all about a new habit we have both adopted that truly does have the power to be life changing. Dare I call it magical?

May 5, 2016

Sometimes you have to flip things around, so today we're rebroadcasting an interview with Matt Frazier from Nicole Antoinette's podcast, Real Talk Radio. In this episode they cover goal setting, failures and adjustments, and transitioning to a vegan diet.

Apr 28, 2016

We've covered general training advice, running nutrition, and ultramarathons, but somehow we skipped the episode that guides you through your first marathon training.

Good news ... that oversight gets resolved today!

In today's episode, we cover everything you need to know to start training for your first marathon: From how to pick your marathon, to training and nutrition advice, and exactly what to do on race day.

Apr 20, 2016

And we're at it again, answering listener questions with yet another massive Q&A episode. This time tackling running injuries, the ketogenic diet, vegan pregnancy, and oh so much more.

If you eat the healthiest diet in the world, but it stresses you out to plan, prepare, and eat it ... is it really that healthy? Nutritionist Sid Garza-Hillman doesn't think so, and he's back on NMA Radio to follow up his last interview, one of our most downloaded episodes ever. In this episode, the final of a three-part series, Sid and Matt talk about how junk food hijacks your brain, their thoughts on oil, and small steps to incredible health.

If you eat the healthiest diet in the world, but it stresses you out to plan, prepare, and eat it ... is it really that healthy? Nutritionist Sid Garza-Hillman doesn't think so, and he's back on NMA Radio to follow up his last interview, one of our most downloaded episodes ever. In part two of this three part series, Sid and Matt talk about what they eat in a typical day, and why variety in diet may not be as important as most people think.

If you eat the healthiest diet in the world, but it stresses you out to plan, prepare, and eat it ... is it really that healthy? Nutritionist Sid Garza-Hillman doesn't think so, and he's back on NMA Radio to follow up his last interview, one of our most downloaded episodes ever. In this episode, the first of a three-part series, Sid and Matt bust some myths about healthy eating and lay the foundation for a simpler approach to health.

While on a recent trip to Florida, my family's healthy eating habits were put to the test, and I learned a few things about how to keep them up.

In today's episode, Doug and I discuss those lessons, and how to maintain your healthy habits, even when your routine has changed.

Mar 31, 2016

Is there a right way and a wrong way to set a health or fitness goal?

After reading a recent article on health goals, Matt and I decided we had to weigh in.

A few weeks ago we published an episode called "Things We Wish Vegans Didn't Do," where we shared the aspects of this community we're not all that fond of.

Well today we're flipping the conversation, and talking about the things we love about the vegan community, and wish happened more often.

Mar 17, 2016

A few months ago we published episode called "How to Start Your Movement." In it, Doug and I shared lessons and advice we've learned from spreading our messages through a blog and podcast.

Today's episode is a follow-up to that one, where we share the stories of Leanne Hilgart of Vaute Couture and Andy Levitt of The Purple Carrot. Two growing vegan companies with a lot to offer this community.

I once thought running a marathon, cooking without oil, and going vegan would all be impossible. Now, of course, I know that all three of those -- and a ton of other changes I've made -- are not nearly as hard as I thought.

Sometimes a change can feel so radical that we're too afraid to commit.

In today's episode, Doug and I discuss that challenge, and why most big changes end up not feeling all that big once you make them.

Heads up: There was something wrong with Doug's mic. We apologize for the sound quality, and will have it resolved before the next episode.

Mar 10, 2016

We're vegan. We love vegans. We promote veganism.

But that doesn't mean we have to love everything vegans do!

In today's episode, Doug and I take a few digs at our fellow plant-based animal lovers, and share the things we wish vegans didn't do.

Or at least did less of ...

Mar 3, 2016

We're back with a second big Q&A episode, answering several of the best questions we're received from the past few months. Questions covering breathing, weight gain, energy levels, and so much more.

Join us for this fun episode, and you just might hear your question answered!

Throughout the month of February, I'm doing something I've never been able to get myself to do before ...

I've gone all month (so far) without a sip of alcohol. It's not that I think I have a drinking problem, but my nightly ritual of drinking a single beer has become a tough habit to break. With the help of the One Year, No Beer program, I decided to give it a shot.

Today we bring on One Year No Beer co-founder Andy Ramage, to talk about why he started the program, how alcohol has become such a big part of socializing, and how you can change the way you interact with alcohol.

Feb 18, 2016

We talk a lot about the health benefits and ethical side of veganism, but rarely touch on arguably one of the most important: The environmental benefits.

At least Doug likes to tell me it's one of the most important...

In today's episode Doug and I chat with the directors of the hit documentary Cowspiracy, and explore why many environmentalists ignore the negative impact the meat and dairy industries have on our planet.

Feb 11, 2016

As children, rules feel restrictive and no fun, but as adults, they can guide our days and help us become the person we strive to be.

In today's episode, Doug and I share the 15 rules that shape our lives. They're not nutrition or running focused, but instead general rules that touch all aspects of our lives.

Feb 4, 2016

Getting kids to eat healthy is hard enough. Trying to raise them on a plant-based diet? That can feel impossible for many vegan parents.

In today's episode, I sit down with Dreena Burton, author of the cookbook Plant-Powered Families, to discuss healthy family eating, the optimal diet for children, and how to get your kids to eat their greens.

Jan 28, 2016

These days food trends come and go quicker than most of us know they existed, but some stick around for good reason. In today's episode Doug and I explore 7 popular food trends, whether or not they get our stamp of approval, and how they can help you as a vegan athlete.

Yes, even the non-vegan trends!

Jan 22, 2016

Russell Simmons, co-founder of the hip-hop music label Def Jam, also happens to be an outspoken vegan activist, and the author of the new book The Happy Vegan. 

Eager to hear more about his story and the new book, we asked him on for today's episode, and it did not disappoint. We talk veganism, meditation, yoga, and exactly what it means to be a Happy Vegan.

Jan 21, 2016

Between Apple Watches, GPS watches, smart phones, fitness trackers, and any number of other new gadgets, we're able to collect more health and fitness data now than ever before. And there's no sign of that letting up any time soon.

But is all that data really useful?

In today's episode, Doug and I discuss the new trend towards more data, how it can be helpful, and why we're not sold on the fact that more data is a good thing.

Jan 14, 2016

Steve Kamb started the blog Nerd Fitness right around the same time as I started No Meat Athlete, and he has gone on to build a massive audience and community. While Steve isn't vegan, his approach to life and fitness is very similar to mine. I'm excited to finally bring him on the podcast to talk about not only fitness, but his ability to help people "Level Up" their lives.

In today's episode, we discus his new book, How to Level Up Your Life, and how he has been so successful at building his business.

 

Jan 7, 2016

It's a new year, which can only mean one thing ... new goals, resolutions, or habits.

Normally that would be the case for both me and Doug. We'd set specific goals, and work our asses off to reach them.

But this year, when we sat down to plan out this episode, something weird happened. Neither of us had specific goals, and instead are taking a backwards approach to resolutions. An approach I've taught against for many years.

This time, it feels different.

In today's episode we talk about that backwards approach to new years goals, and how we see potential for even greater positive changes.
