No Meat Athlete Radio

Want to know how we really eat? For the most part, it comes down to a simple formula which can act as the framework for every single meal.

Marco Borges has worked as a health coach to celebrities like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, and Shakira, and today, to you. He sits down with us to talk about his nutrition philosophy, intermittent fasting, and why we should be practicing Kaizen when it comes to our health (and life).

A few days ago we asked readers of the blog to submit their marathon related questions. We got a ton of responses, and answer several in today's episode.

In today's episode, author Ocean Robbins shares his thoughts on foods worth eating every day, the single most important action you can take for your health today, and how to successfully transition to a plant-based diet.

In today's episode Matt sits down with YouTube star High Carb Hannah and her husband Derek to discuss weight loss, the vegan YouTube scene, and a why fruitarianism didn't work for them.

Want to run a big race this year? In today's episode, Doug shares his philosophy on how to develop the perfect training schedule for your goals, whether they're 3, 6, or 12 months away.

After tracking his sleep and discovering what appeared to be inadequate deep sleep, Matt began experimenting with different ways to catch better Zzz's. 

In our last episode of 2018 we talk about the new year, goals, and why how we feel about failure. Plus Matt shares his 2019 book list.

It's easy to hate on New Year's resolutions. After all, they almost always fail. But what if they didn't have to? What if we really could use January 1st as a chance to do something big?  

'Twas a few weeks before Christmas when all through No Meat Athlete, Matt and Doug were up giggling, 'til the vegan cooking was complete. Ok, enough of that... Each year this ends up being one of my favorite episodes to record -- our big vegan holiday extravaganza, where we share the official unofficial NMA gift list, our goals and focuses for the new year, and what we'll be cooking come Christmas morning. Happy holidays!

Each year, one of my favorite episodes is the Holiday Extravaganza, so this year, we decided to get started a little early with a sneak peek at the official NMA gift guide (plus a few fitness lessons from 2018).

Let's take a little walk down memory lane and explore the history of No Meat Athlete and how it -- and the community -- has changed over the years.

I think it's safe to say that both of us have primarily identified as runners over the past several years, but when it comes to fitness and health, where does running fall short?

With the rise of social media, hustle incomes, and free education and promotion, are hobbies for the sake of enjoyment... dead?

Have you ever taken a life-changing smoke break? NMA's own Susan Lacke has, when her old boss, Carlos, convinced her to start working out with him. Twenty months later, she was running her first Ironman triathlon, writing for NMA, and launching a new career. And it was Carlos's never-wavering support that she believes made it all possible.

You've probably seen the recent headlines like, "No Amount of Alcohol is Safe" or "Why Any Levels of Alcohol is Bad for You." They've been popping up a lot recently, in part because it's a drastic shift from the conventional thinking that a small amount of wine each day could actually be good for you. In today's episode we take a look at the recent studies, and examine what they mean for our health (and our drinking habits).

Sometimes, no matter how much you want a habit to work, it just doesn't. You can't get it to stick. Does that mean you should just give up and quit trying all together?

What do you do when you're at a wedding with little for vegans to eat? You spend the weekend eating simply. Here's how it turned out for Doug, and what he took away from the experience.   

We sit down with Sid Garza-Hillman, nutritionist and author of Approaching the Natural, to talk about his four rules for healthy eating. And yes, there are only four!

Some may call it wacky, others... simple. In today's episode we discuss the most important food lesson Matt has learned from nearly a decade of No Meat Athlete.
