This episode I breakdown the results of my 4 week vegan challenge. Although I was only planning on doing it for a month, I have decided to continue on with my plant based life. My end weight after the 4 week challenge was 177.6 pounds and I started out at 181.4 pounds. I essentially lost 5 pounds by not changing a thing, I still worked out, meditated, and surfed, but only cut out meat and dairy from my diet. I’m feeling and looking better than ever. What has really helped me is having the support of my wife, who also did this challenge with me. She has been doing a lot of cooking which has...

Today, I'm going to talk about how I'm feeling after finishing my 2nd week of my 30 Day Plant Based Vegan Diet. Just to be clear vegan is cutting out all meat and diary out of your diet. I was out surfing this morning and got motivated to rush home and record this. Even though the kids are stirring and the dog is out and about I wanted to share with you exactly how I'm feeling both mentally and physically. I'm feeling outstanding, my energy in incredible and I'm loving of my body is responding to this plant based diet. Although I don't sleep much anyway but I have been averaging 3-4 hours of...

Today I'm going to talk about my 30 Day Plant Based Diet that I'm trying. As a successful musician you can't perform at a high level if you don't feel good. Many of you know that I'm big on exercise, eating well, meditating, positive thinking, and reading a lot. Although lately I haven't been feeling 100%. I wouldn't say that I have felt bad, but I feel like there was some room for improvement. In attempts to better health I decided to do a 30 day all plant based diet. This is something that I'm a little scared of. I have eaten meat and dairy my entire life so giving it up, even for 30 days is...

In this 4K motivational video I'll discuss how I dealt with a performance where I sucked and learned to be better. Part of any kind of success is also going through some low points or failures. Today instead of telling you something I did well at or excelled at, I’m going to discuss something that I failed at. This is a story that is hard to discuss because we want to believe that we always perform at high levels and that we are essentially “perfect.” I got a call from a good buddy and wanted to know if I wanted to teach a summer guitar class and perform for the faculty concert at what...

In this 4K motivational video I'll discuss how to Track Your Goals and achieve the success in life that you are looking for. You have your dreams and you set your goals but now you have to track your progress along the way. I'm going to use my weight as an example to demonstrate how you can use tracking to reach your goals. I set a goal to get to 180 pounds. Since I was at 191 pounds that meant that I had to lose 11 pounds. My first step was to start a sugar and carb detox. For 3 weeks we completely cut out sugars, yes even fruit, and all carbs (breads, grains, etc.). I still did my daily...

In this podcast I'll discuss how and when I got my first composition on MTV. Around the time I was graduating from the University of Southern California with my Master of Music in Studio/Jazz Guitar, I was working around Los Angeles as a professional musician. One of the things I wanted to get into more than anything was studio recording work. At the time I was mainly playing guitar but I was also working up my skills as a lap steel, dobro, banjo, and mandolin player. I was also studying country guitar with the great Steve Trovato and loving anything that had twang, like Johnny Cash, Jerry...
info_outlineThis episode I breakdown the results of my 4 week vegan challenge. Although I was only planning on doing it for a month, I have decided to continue on with my plant based life.
My end weight after the 4 week challenge was 177.6 pounds and I started out at 181.4 pounds. I essentially lost 5 pounds by not changing a thing, I still worked out, meditated, and surfed, but only cut out meat and dairy from my diet. I’m feeling and looking better than ever.
What has really helped me is having the support of my wife, who also did this challenge with me. She has been doing a lot of cooking which has really made it easier to life this lifestyle.
I have tons of energy, I’m still lifting weights and feeling strong. I never realized how meat and dairy affected the way I felt, mainly in a negative way.
I believe that everyone needs to go all plant based or at least mostly plant based. There is too much information available proving how much healthier we will be as individuals and a society if we switch to a plant based diet.
Besides just feeling and looking great, you will reduce your risk of cancer, heart disease, and diabetes. One thing we have to realize is that we have been fed the wrong information over our lives regarding meat and diary.
We are also trying to cut down the amount of processed food that we eat. Many times we see something like almond milk and think that it’s healthy, but if you look at the ingredients you’ll see that there is lots of chemicals used in production.
You also have to learn about the impact that the factory farming is having on our environment. The amount of land, food, and water that is required to raise and grow animals for food production is extremely costly. We have to realize that these problems are real, and if you spend some time and do the research you’ll realize that you need to start making a difference.
Do it for your health. Don’t you want to live a long and healthy life? If you keep eating a rich meat and diary diet your health will be effected. If you really want to feel better, live longer, and do something to help the planet, then you have to start to make a difference.
