I'm Having Another Baby! Also: Is BMI Worthless? What Does "Macro-Friendly" Mean? Fat Loss During Ramadan. And Does Red Meat Cause Cancer?

In this episode of The Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I answer questions from the listeners with my podcast producer, Tony.  We discuss topics like whether or not BMI is a worthwhile metric, what "macro-friendly" even means, how to approach fat loss when fasting for Ramadan, and whether or not red meat causes cancer.  We also talk about food deserts, hunting, actively seeking out content that you disagree with, and a big announcement for my family. I spiked my blood sugar every day for a month - see what happened here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CAI0jXtJH4&t=572s . I tried the carnivore diet for two weeks - see what happened here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSXaIEaXwS0&t=7s . Do you have any questions you want us to discuss on the podcast? Give Tony a follow and shoot him a DM on Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/tone_reverie/ . I hope you enjoy this episode and, if you do, please leave a review on iTunes (huge thank you to everyone who has written one so far).  Finally, if you've been thinking about joining The Inner Circle but haven't yet... we have hundreds of home and bodyweight workouts for you and you can get them all here: https://www.sfinnercircle.com/ .

1 Year of Being a Father

1 Year of Being a Father

In this episode of The Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I have a conversation with my trusty podcast producer, Tony, about what it's been like being a father now that it's been a year since my daughter was born. I talk about how difficult the first 5 weeks were, how I made working out during that period a priority, how my priorities have shifted dramatically since she was born, what my productivity has been like, how I am trying to be a good role model at home, and more. I also discuss the "hope molecule" and why strength training is linked to reduced anxiety, why I want to prioritize long form content over social media, why the "iron" never lies, and more. I spiked my blood sugar every day and still lost 12lbs - check out the video: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CAI0jXtJH4 .Check out my episode about growing up with ADD and Special Education: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-jordan-syatt-mini-podcast/id1348856817?i=1000615744034 .Check out my podcast with Mike Vacanti - How To Become A Personal Trainer: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-to-become-a-personal-trainer/id1490499334 .If you have any follow-up questions to this episode or other questions or episode ideas you'd like us to talk about on the podcast, shoot Tony a message on Instagram: www.instagram.com/tone_reverie/ .

'Son of Hamas' Gives Unbelievable Interview on The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and Exposes Hamas

'Son of Hamas' Gives Unbelievable Interview on The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and Exposes Hamas

Mosab Hassan Youself, "The Son of Hamas," gives an unbelievable interview on The Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and exposes the truth about Hamas.

Watch this whole interview from start to finish because Mosab explains in great detail how this conflict began, why it's happening, and what needs to be done for it to be resolved.

A few of the questions Mosab answers are:

- Can you explain what Hamas is, what it's goal is, and what it does for both the Palestinian people as well as Israel?

- Does Hamas actually use it's citizens as human shields? If yes, can you explain what that practically means? Do they really conduct military operations from schools and hospitals and residential buildings? If yes, why?

- Does Hamas have a "pay for slay" program, in which they pay Hamas terrorists for killing (or taking hostage) innocent Israelis?

- Can you explain what those who have been brought up in the west fail to understand about the mindset and culture of those in Hamas? Why do so many in the west support it, and do you think they actually know/understand what they're supporting?

- Is Israel illegally occupying Gaza and The West Bank?

- Is Israel truly an apartheid state?

- Is Israel trying to commit a genocide against Palestinians?

- Does Israel have the right to exist?

- What is the resolution to all of this? Is a two-state solution possible (or even desirable)?

- What can us regular people do to improve the world and lead us toward peace?

How to Stay Stay Fit While You Travel

How to Stay Stay Fit While You Travel

In this episode of The Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I talk all about travel and fitness with my trusty podcast producer, Tony.
I talk about the entire spectrum of taking a day off for a dinner or a wedding to situations in which you are traveling for extended periods with little control over your schedule and everything in between.
I highlight how important it is to realize you aren't going to ruin your diet or fitness program over the course of your travel, but I also go over some tips and thoughts on how to keep the gears moving when you're on the road, including getting out for a walk, ways to think about food and eating out at restaurants, and exercises and implements that are easy to take along with you on your journey. I also talk about appreciating the good old days while they are happening.

The Israeli Palestinian Conflict Explained

The Israeli Palestinian Conflict Explained

In this episode of the Jordan Syatt Mini-Podcast, I discuss The Israeli Palestinian Conflict, the horrific events of October 7th, 2023, their immediate aftermath, and the history leading us to this heartbreaking event. Being Jewish myself, and having lived in Israel and having family there, I go to pains to be as objective as possible while still speaking from the heart. My goal is to help people become more educated on what's been going on in the region and to hopefully open peoples' hearts and minds to the idea that the targeting and killing of innocent civilians is never justified, regardless of who they are, where they are from, or what they believe. I know this is a controversial topic but I cannot go on with my regularly scheduled programming as all of this unfolds. I hope you listen with open hearts, and I hope you learn something from it that is helpful to you. I know that speaking on this topic will unleash a lot of anger and hatred and unfortunately, 1-star reviews, so if you find this episode at all helpful or want to support me and the podcast, please leave a review on iTunes to help keep us afloat (huge thank you to everyone who has written one so far).
Stay safe.
I love you all.
